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!!

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

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
