Aunt jess: Fleur survives and she is like a true mother figure to Amy.
The plot is basically this: Jess tries to cheer up a young Amy and takes her out for a walk, only to suffer the same attack that occurred in the canon—a blow to the head that triggers Amy's powers, saving her aunt.
Things return to normal for a while, until people begin to notice changes in Jess, who apparently suffered alterations to her brain. If you have anything to contribute to the story idea or Fleur's character, please share it.

Would you join the Wards?
Hey. I really fucking hate the Wards program.
This is mostly because I hate the PRT, so it and the Protectorate are by extension. The reason I strongly dislike the PRT is because of the fascist vibes they give, in addition to the meta-knowledge of the corruption and what their directors are like, and my general distrust of incompetent authority. Not to mention the lack of agency for Ward and Protectorate members in fanfics.
To me, the kind of person who joins the PRT is either going to be a Cape fan or a Cape hater, with the former likely the minority. The Cape haters are people who want to protect normal humanity from parahuman "tyranny" (and probably see all parahumans as evil by default), or people who are terrified of the physical power parahumans hold or the instability they cause, and are seeking control (taking the form of controlling them bureaucratically). Having these people, who directly manage the minority they are against and are in charge of containing, seems like a big conflict of interest.
On top of that, you've got other government superhero agencies in other media, like Marvel Avengers (though not Mutants/X-Men), My Hero Aca, Dispatch heroes-for-hire, the Incredibles, independent heroes in DC, etc. (the superhero webnovel that introduced me to Worm Summus Proelium by CeruleanScrawling (a comment compared SPHERE to PHO)), to compare them to, and it's just a disappointment. If Wilderbow wanted me to have feelings about them, he sure did a good job.
Personally, I think it all went wrong when Rebeca/Alexandrea personally got involved - aside from the obvious, this made the Protectorate subservient to the PRT and bound them from the get-go; they didn't get a chance to negotiate terms.
So. I want to know what you think of the PRT, Protectorate, or Wards? And if you were an underage parahuman (let's say you don't have meta-knowledge about them, but you do have a gut feeling of it), would you join them and why?
