THE FANDOM FLANDERIZATION MEME

[elfstoned]

We all know how fandom flanderizes characters, but what if Save the Earth were a television show?

How would fandom get it wrong?



HOW IT WORKS:
Post a comment with your character journal explaining generally what the twisted and horrible fanon version of your character is. What less significant personality traits do they fixate on? How do the thirteen-year-olds on fanfiction.net write them? Who are they shipped with ad nauseum? What are they like in Omegaverse?

OPTIONAL: Reply IC to others' comments as your own flanderized fanon character, or feel free to have the real version express horror and disgust (or vicious amusement).

Have fun!!

Neville!Alex is my new headcanon. Just so you know.

Naturally, there is a fairly large segment of the fandom that wonders whether Alex is OP - he and Hajime are the only ones (as far as I recall) who've made Echoed things disappear.

I'd be one of the fans rooting for him to turn out to be a Crouching Geek Hidden Badass. :)

And oooh, that would make for interesting fan discussions for sure!
