So not a chap.. for some reason I felt like explaining my thought process on my character, his journey, and the harem, without giving any spoilers of course, wall keeping it brief and short. Keep reading if you want...
Okay starting with the harem first, disclaimer I prefer harem novels over the singular relationship ones, not that I don't like non harem novels, I still read them, it's just my preference... so when I was originally writing for this both before and after I changed the main character to Frank Castle, I was choosing the harem members based on a combination of greed, laziness, stupidity, etc. It wasn't until later that I realized this wouldn't work, if I wanted to be able to have an actual decent fic, there needed to be an actual bond between these characters, a build up, a reason, if any at all, for them all to get together. Even if the build up was small, there has to be something there that leads to them being together or else it's not even romance, it's just another everyday guys wet dream.
With this in mind I began to actually think things through, like how often is this character used in a fic, what are there powers, are these powers similar to another characters, what is there backstory and personality, what could surprise the audience, is it unexpected, is it new, what is there relationship with other characters, etc. These were the base thoughts for the harem members.
I also realized I couldn't just add whoever into the harem, because one, It would be a complete nightmare trying to write romance and sex scenes for over 30 characters, which would eventually lead to me dropping this fic because of burn out from trying to give each and every single one screen time, even more of a nightmare than trying to combine marvel and DC, which believe me I tried repeatedly, and failed every single time, two, over use, a lot of marvel characters are overused in Fics so I had to think hard to give my fic a twist in this regard, I partially succeeded I would like to think, but my liking for some affected the final product...
Ps, before I move on I will let you guys know at least this much, one of the two mystery harem members, let's just say when the thought came to mind, I ended up laughing nonstop for the next hour after, just because of how ridiculous I thought the idea was, which was the exact reason I added them in the first place. I personally think no one could actually quess who it is. Consider this a challenge.
My character himself, is based on my 3 favorite male characters in marvel, Spider-Man, Punisher, and ?(You'll find out later). I wanted to throw an element of each into the picture. I changed my mind on the transmigration part but I've come up with a decent follow through, hint(not really), it involves the infinity stones.
As for his journey... if it isn't already apparent, his journey is going to be brutal and depressing, but don't worry at the least I can garentee their will be a happy ending.
I wanted to say more but, I wanted to keep this brief without giving anything away. First chapter will be next week, have a good day.
Ps:The Yaoi tag is 'mostly', for jokes and giggles, I say mostly because... well I hope most of you actually read the -Author POV-... That's all I'm gonna say... Bye.
