THE FANDOM FLANDERIZATION MEME


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!!

I feel the fandom would be split into two camps: there are the ones who ship him anyway and the ones who cry ace erasure when he is shipped.

then he's revealed to be an alien and no one knows what to think.
