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!!

Marisa hasn't been around SUPER long and I don't even know what Omegaverse is, but I'm gonna say Flanderized Marisa is an over the top texan redneck. Cowboy hat, drawl, boots with spurs, thousand mile stare, talks about rodeos and hogtying and shit, the whole nine yards. Also, totally obsessed with video games to the point of maybe having a quarter dispenser on her belt.

I don't know, I feel like I'm kinda half-assing this without having something to weigh in on shipping. Maybe in fandom's imagination, this thread went to a really weird place. Maybe her high scores rivalry with Bakura gets totally out of control into some foe-yay thing.

All I can say is...don't google it. JUST DON'T. 8(

I bet people probably speculate that Marisa and Fay are long-lost cousins because EVERYONE IS THE SOUTH IS RELATED, AMIRITE.

Wait so we have another southern belle and nobody told me!?

[caosgo]

If by southern belle you mean vampire stripper, then yes. ;D

Trying to imagine Marisa being related to a vampire stripper his hilariously implausible, which makes it all the more perfect for this meme. Fanon is Marisa is deeply jealous of Fay's sexual freedom and wishes she could emulate him.

SOUTHERN BELLES/TEXAN REDNECKS REPRESENT o/

And of course fanon believes them to be long-lost related somehow, and that they will bond and teach each other all about life. And sexual freedom. Because incest is what fandom is made of. /skips

This is why fandom scares me.

Fandom is a scary place, it's true ^^ And the fictional StE fans would be simultaneously awesome and terrifying xD
