IC ANON MEME

[letsgolegion]

THE IC ANON MEME RULES AND INFO ✦ Everything must be from an IC in-world perspective. The meme is specifically a Legion fandom meme. UP citizens, Legion World Staff, and Legionnaires all have access to the meme. While this meme is in the meme comm, it is real in the game universe and all the Legionnaires and the public can see it ICly. Rather than other ic anon memes where characters post starters to the meme, this meme operates like real world memes like rpanons. ✦ There are 3 ways to post. When posting as non-Legionnaires, do it anon. When posting as Legionnaires that unwisely comment unanon, just do it logged in. If posting as Legionnaires going anon, do it logged in, but mark "anon" in the subject, so we know it's anon, but can have a laugh over which Legionnaires are secretly stanning or shitposting. ✦ Not necessarily a rule, but keep in mind that attitudes in the UP are different than our world. Most people are referred to generally as "people" or "sentients" instead of species-specific terms like "humans." Most racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, and other "ist" attitudes are now uncommon among most species in the UP. Many sexual orientations exist, polyamory and polygamy are considered acceptable, and gender identity is very flexible. Species-based xenophobia tends to be the bigger social ill and even with that, many are against it. The species that are most disliked and distrusted are Durlans, Daxamites, and Roboticans. If you want to use them for fun, common UP cursewords are on the Legion Basics page. ✦ Beyond sticking to those basics, don't worry about getting anything "wrong." It's a meme and people tend to say stupid things on memes. You can even make up fake species and planets and details about them. The UP is huge and has lots of planets and species not mentioned in the game info. ✦ You can pretend to write things from the POV of Legion staff sharing the deets on the Legionnaires. However, they wouldn't share tactical info on the Legionnaires that could get them hurt in battle, only juicy gossip. Also, if someone is writing from the POV of Legion staff and writes something about your character that your character doesn't actually do, keep in mind that half the time people make shit up. It'll just be false gossip. ✦ Try to keep anything that can't be put behind a link sfw. While you can write someone sharing the start of their steamy slash fanfic, try to keep it limited to just part of it. Linking to fanart as if it was made in universe is a-okay, but just make sure to put it under a link and warn if it it's nsfw. Please check character ages before posting any nsfw stuff to make sure they're over 18. ✦ Feel free to get really crazy. Fandom gets crazy and fandom is no different in the glorious robot future. There are normal posters, shitposters, trolls, rpf ficcers, stans, slashers, all the same things our time has. There are macros and gifs and ongoing fake memes you can make up. There will be a few preposted topics but you can make up new ones or just have anons create new topics or troll. ✦ The meme is generally modless and has no thread-freezing. Fandom plays it dangerous in the future and the ic mod rarely intervenes, though anons sometimes try to get them to. Anon comments can be deleted by the real mods at the request of players (like say if they made a formatting mistake and want to repost) but there should be no need to delete anything beyond that since it's all IC. ✦ This anon meme is set shortly after the events of "Gods Among Us", "To Have and To Hold", and "The Other Mother." Unfortunately for the shippers, "To Have and To Hold" was done with Legionnaires entirely undercover. Similarly, "Gods Among Us" and "The Other Mother" largely took place in alternate timelines or dimensions, meaning that those are generally unknown as well. The last really public Legion Mission was "The Spy Who Sprocked Us", in which the entire mission was made public after the fact, and the fallout of it has lead to some public outcry against the officials, but not the planets, involved in the betrayal to the Heralds of Chronoblivion. "Through The Looking Glass" lacks any complete recordings, as most recording technology was transformed by Tsarista's magic, but that doesn't mean that people couldn't have seen and remembered the transformations and what the Legionnaires did during.

Datastream AMA!

[age_of_the_geek]

Hello hello again, space! This is Datastream! I haven't been all that active because I have been throwing myself facefirst into trying out all the tech and whatnot. I have a whole millenia to catch up on and I love my gadgets, so you gotta see just how much time I sink into this.

So, yeah. I'm back for some more AMA goodness!

[nofortunateson]

There is a lot of new technology here, it's really exciting! What's your favorite new thing you've learned about?

So you ever gonna give us a scoop on how the fight with that black asthmatic guy, or that jackass Felix went? I can't find the footage!

Paperboy AMA

[bachido]

[Even aged up by about 5 years, Kubo is still the only one-eyed Japanese Legionnaire, and therefore hard to mistake for anyone but himself. Aside from the fact that he seems around 19 years old in the video as he sets up his livestream, the second oddest thing is that his robe still fits him perfectly.]

Hello everyone!

I apologize for the wait. I wanted to get this up sooner, but I, uh . . . woke up like this.

[He gestures vaguely to his . . . extra five years.]

I had to let my robes out.

And before anyone asks, I don't know why this is happening yet, but I'm not the only one it's happened to. So when we figure it out, I'll let you know.

So, ask me any story. There's a lot that's been going on here in the Legion recently, but Father and I were on our own mission while most everyone else was busy with other things. So I'll tell you every story I know, and I'll do my best to get stories from the others if you want to see a tale I don't know yet!

And, uh, you can request songs if you like, but I might not be as good at playing them right now.

[He winces at this weird inconvenience.]

My hands changed size. I'm not used to it yet.

[turntex]

[...shit kubo is hot now.]

[Wow. That's gonna mess with his head. Be cool Dave, this is your sweet and adorable adopted little brother.]

So we had Monkey Mom, now we have Bug Dad. Should we start calling you Paper Son?

Θ!

[nofortunateson]

This looks fun! Ask me anything, I guess! I can try to get Delta too if he's not busy.

[steelandtemper]

Behave yourselves if you value your credit ratings.

are you being treated fairly and with all the rights and freedoms commensurate with being a sentient AI in this age?

Hello! I'm Jericho, if you don't know me. I got someone to translate this into Interlac for me. Ask me anything!

[ The text flashes to another message when he's not looking. It says "He does not have grondles. Don't ruin this for me. ~ Zayak from PR" ]

Before anyone asks, I'm single, and any rumors about a fringed vest are hearsay.

The Director

[pump_action]

[Well, since public relations are an important part of any business, and she's at least got the chance to do so on her own terms here (she only glanced at the rest of what 'fandom' had to offer and quickly decided her sanity was better off not knowing).]

[Seeing that others were pretty much sticking to their 'personas' she conducts her feed in her costume.]

Hello, I am ... The Director, here to answer all of your appropriate questions.
