This is just something that kind of spun off from a story I'm working on.

I envisioned her as a She-Hulk type character - green, Amazonic, superstrong etc. - but I mean, any Amazon type would work... anyway. Female lead, she's maybe a bit shy and bookish. Just out of highschool. Starts interning with a mad scientist.

Anyway, after a while of this she's with her (somewhat) deranged employer the city is threatened. By famine, flood, plague, supervillain - anything really. Annie is worried, caring girl that she is. So crazy prof says "If you want - you can try some of this new potion." I suppose that it could be something else, maybe exposure to a type of radiation, whatever.

She obviously agrees, takes the potion and then transforms into her Amazon state, averts disaster and then quickly exits the scene when she finds the powers and body receding. The change shouldn't precipitate any kind of substantial alter ego - she'll still be Annie, just Annie in an Amazon body. So, she's a bit embarassed about it.

That's pretty much the basic setup. She relies on the potion for her powers and she's still herself. Then it goes on to deal with how she starts to become addicted and obsessed with her alter-ego, to the point where she does start to develop different personas.

That sounds pretty cool.

I was toying around with the idea of something vaguely along these lines. and by vaguely, i mean "FMG Superhero", with a totally different plot. Basically "Guy starts dating girl, she's secretly a superhero, he finds out, hijinks ensue". But your idea is very good.

I wanted Annie to get a boyfriend after she got her powers but to keep it secret - bit of a spiderman complex. Then later on, as she started to spend more time as her alter-ego, she'd probably cheat on him as her other self...

The whole thing though prompts her sexual awakening. Her increased confidence as super Annie allow her to go out and talk to men... and that trickles down to her normal life by allowing her to get a boyfriend. She'll probably be fairly religious before all this happened, so kind of uptight. Naturally, cheating on her boyfriend rather encourages the dichotomy within her. She becomes conflicted because she knows that she shouldn't cheat on her boyfriend but at the same time, derives so much pleasure from it.

Her (female) friend would find out though and eventually get to nagging her about trying the potion and Annie not wanting to share it - both because she's worried that she might experience the addiction and obsession. She's scared and excited at the idea... I'm not really sure how that will play out. Whether Annie will stay alone, get a sidekick, a partner or a nemesis...

This is typically me - overthink an idea I don't have time to do... still, people should feel free to use it.

But yeah, I'd love to help someone write this. Really, I think it's a good idea for anyone that wants to do something more than just a simple "wank" story. Naturally, if the author were intent on sending it to the story club, I'd be receptive
