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!!

there's probably crackfic/crack fanart of mordin trying to SCIENCE at kotetsu and him just staring blankly with NANI?!??!!?! face

(see: icon)

yes, perfect.

also, i don't know if kotetsu speaks japanese, but there's fic of mordin learning japanese from him. it's very slashy.

[earnedmystripes]

he totally speaks japanese!

the fic probably has them using bodily fluids to practice kanji. it has fanart to go with it.
