Season 3: 173k
So I mentioned it in the Progress post, Star Jumper Season 3 is almost complete. There are three chapters left (2 really, with the last one being so big it needed to become a two-parter). I've finished all but two or three scenes. Previously, I said that I'd put this story on hiatus at the end of this Season, but I don't want to leave the Star Jumper readers unsatisfied. I've begun the process of tying up Rogue, but it'll be a long while still before that story reaches the end. For Star Jumper, the Season 3 finale is (I think) satisfying, in that it answers some of the questions about why Tyson is actually in this universe.
Additionally, my planning lined up perfectly (read: unintentional coincidence), and the Halloween Bonus chapter for Rogue lines up with the week Star Jumper Season 3's finale is released for Ascended. Why does this matter? Because the Rogue Bonus chapter explains Tyson's journey, and in part, has a very minor Crossover. Even if you don't read the other story, this bonus episode is worth reading. Between those two chapters, it ties Star Jumper up nicely. Nicely, as in satisfying, but it still leaves a bunch of plot threads dangling, and the last few chapters are some of the best in this season. They make me want to write more, and I assume, they'll make you want to read more.
Instead of going on hiatus and pausing the story cold turkey, I'm going to shift to monthly releases. This will ensure that I don't lose momentum and the story doesn't die. I'll need to pick a love interest for Season 4, but it'll have to wait until this Season's finale to avoid spoilers. Expect a poll for that next month.

1. Mostly Star Trek focused, similar to Season 3. 2. A new reality opening up for him to play in. 3. I'm going to change how I do the episodes. I've been keeping everything linear and chronological thus far based around the TNG timeline. I'm going to make some adjustments to the episodes and combine several of them so that we can move through the seasons a little faster. 4. Current planned Episodes include the completion of TNG S1, several of S2, and a few from the new reality: Arsenal of Freedom, Neutral Zone, The Child, Elementary, Dear Data, Schizoid Man, The Measure of a Man, A Matter of Honor, Samaritan Snare, Time Squared, The Emissary, Peak Performance, and.... Q Who 5. So from that list, we'll see some Ferengi, the introduction of the Pakleds, Romulans, and... finally, Tyson's first encounter with the Borg. Though some of these events get mixed up because of the new reality introduced. 6. I don't have much Star Wars planned, but I'll put out a poll at some point and see if people want more of that. I could accelerate that timeline and start introducing elements of KOTOR 2 (Its supposed to be 5 years before that happens, but I don't think there would be harm in having it happen earlier).

2025-09-15 16:06:16 +0000 UTCMeasure of a Man is such an iconic episode, it would be hard to do it better. Something like Heart of Glory was easy because it talked about honor in a trash way, so Tyson could step in and say, 'Hey, that's not right. This is.' MoaM is arguably a Top 10 Trek episode, so I think I'll be doing it a bit differently by combining it with another episode. It'll give Tyson something else to do, preserve the episode, and allow me to get my metacommentary in, while hopefully preserving what made that episode great, and improving one that was kinda meh in the process.
