Give me a link to one of my fics, and I'll give you details that didn't make it into the fic. Background canon, deleted scenes, or a look into the future. My choice, but if you have a specific question you can ask it in your request.

ender's game beast

[freefallskyline]

This was supposed to be for my mini bang, ha ha ha ha. I never wrote anything (I started a few times but scrapped it all, including the first paragraph on the first page below), but I actually planned for it, kind of, so here is the outline that isn't really an outline:

one  two  three  four  five

I hope they're in order, and somewhat legible. I honestly had a lot of trouble with this, which is why I ultimately decided to drop out; I just couldn't figure out how to make it work properly, even with all the planning. If you don't want to go through the 'outline' (it really isn't), this is the summary I submitted:

3089 A.D. - Humans squashed the First Android Uprising and managed to contain the Second, but now the Third Uprising is nearing, and mankind is not ready. Doojoon is the most promising candidate the Intergalactic Military Committee has seen in decades, but he needs an army to command, and majors to help him do it. The IMC sends him five of the best and the brightest, but one may not be as human as he seems...
And another

crying at Doojoon having potential but being a lazy fook.

Yoseob could be like Bean :( Or Doojoon could be like Alai, except Alai was never really a leader. ANYWAY YOU SAY THAT LIKE YOU CAN'T CHANGE IT. YOU TOTALLY CAN BECAUSE IT'S ALL UNWRITTEN. Doojoon (and co.?) could get the recognition in the end! :(

You are forgiven for dropping out since this is a huge undertaking and I can't write more than 3k of anything so who am I to be all accusing lol :(

NO HAPPY ENDINGS

If I do ever want to write this, I think I'll just make Yoseob the Ender character, and run with that. The smartest one doesn't have to be the one everyone looks up to, anyway, so I could just figure out some other role for Doojoon. Or, like, he could be the one they were looking for a team for, but then Yoseob was actually more talented, so while Doojoon was the leader of the group, Yoseob was the leader in terms of battle/strategy. Something like that.
