A Strange New World
Summary: "The diary of Magenta and Riffraff's 16-year-old daughter Trixie. When they first arrive on Earth, they enroll her in the local school so she can research earthling culture by watching the behavior of the other students. But what happens when she starts to care about the people she's studying? She can't tell them the truth without ruining everything!"
Major Ships: Columbia/Eddie, Riff Raff/Magenta
State of Mind at Time of Writing: I was excited I'd finished a story (SFFA) and eager to start something new. Since sequels to SFFA weren't working out I began this. Though I never finished it, because real-life stuff distracted me. I could no longer go back to the more innocent way of thinking. The story ended abruptly with Trixie being raped by Frank. At the time I was very keen on accuracy and was careful with calendar dates… and tried to make the illness of Laura's medically correct.
Chapter-by-Chapter Annotations (a Work in Progress):
Chapter 1:
· I was very proud of myself for figuring out the dates. The second of January was indeed a Tuesday in 1973. Speaking of which, that was written near. I wanted to make it real time like the never-posted
· Magenta and Riff Raff are called "Mum and Dad" by Trixie. How British they all were!
· One of the most important reasons for me referring to Frank as 'the Master' was that typing the name 'Frank N. Furter' made me uncomfortable. Now I've written enough that I'm comfortable typing that. Silly, isn't it?
· In this story Transylvanians like the moon because their planet is too close to their sun and the days are too hot. That differs from a later idea that became standard (that only half the planet gets light).
