HoEC is pretty much dead, but we can revive it back. Hopefully. When you come back, I have a few things I'd like to address.

1) Remember Terry Tanzanite? He's the upcoming new villain I have planned for the gemstones plot. I started a solo story, The Terror of Terry Tanzanite, which focuses on his origin. Inspired by Gravity Falls, this story will cover on his past, how he became a villain and so on. It won't be part of HoEC, but it will be an opportunity for me to give Terry some background and personality before officially introducing him into HoEC as a villain. I haven't done much due to my lack of activity though.

2) I've been thinking about a minor rearrangement of stories we have planned for Season 5. Basically, my idea is to have The Eighth Gemstone go right after Red Ruby Revolution, which will take place right after The Ace Revenge. I figured this might reduce your workload considering your inactivity, but more than that, there will also be some continuity in HoEC.

3) We should speed up The Ace Revenge. To be honest, the story is starting to get a little stale and it's not because of how long it's been going on. Not going to lie, I actually like the interactions that are happening amongst Ace, Dr. Zack and his minions, they give great character development. In fact, I myself am wondering what will happen to Dr. Zack and his team along the way (not asking for spoilers). But it's more action than story, and the battle scenes are a bit flat compared to the others in previous Dr. Zack stories. For now, Acidus is my favorite out of the new generation of superpowered teens, but I'm looking forward to see the rest.

4) This is more personal, but I've been wanting to make some stories with the other users. I've seen you and Jelo write stories with them, and I thought it's about time I start doing the same myself. I'm just wondering, do you have any tips on coming up with story ideas that can appeal to other users?
