IC ANON MEME

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 "No Sanity Clause" and "Silent Horizon." Thanks to news drones catching part of the Joker's declaration, and thanks to press conferences by the UP government, several things that happened during "No Sanity Clause" are now public knowledge: the threat of Chronoblivion and that the Legion and UP government kept it secret, that the Joker is in Legion custody and will not be released to Takron Galtos (the prison planet), and that Blue Rose is dead and will be having a funeral soon on Shanghalla. What isn't publicly known: that the Joker said Brainic 5 wasn't guilty of the original Legion disappearing and that Chronoblivion's forces were, and that the Spectre appeared as Blue Rose died and gruesomely killed her murderer, Firefly (though the Carggites that saw him may reveal this anon). As for Silent Horizon, it's publicly known: that the star drive test was a dismal failure and that much of the Silent Horizon crew died, and that the Legion saved the Robotican crew members. However, the full extent of what happened is not publicly known. (That said, people may post as anon Legion World staff spilling the beans on what happened during the mission.)

from what thresh prince said, though, it's still considered romantic. so if his species has the same concepts and mores about siblings and incest that most sentients have, it would still be incestuous.

that said, from my view it's more like they're as close as brothers and monkey mom feels protective of justin, not like they're actual brothers, and even if there were legal adoptions and everything they're still not BIOLOGICALLY related, so my people wouldn't think much of it, anyway.

[This one is, alarmingly, from a Khund. A famed chef who specializes in meat is called out in front of his guests by the Spectre for feeding them sentients, then is shrunken and devoured by the spirit in front of his infonet cameras. It takes the Spectre two bites.]

York & Locus

[personal profile] goddamngrenades 2017-01-23 06:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ The scene's a beach- York shirtless in swimtrunks leaning against Locus, guitar in hand, bottle of tequila stuck in the sand between them. Being social is good, right? And being missing is just- well it makes people ask questions.

And he'd rather avoid that shit.

SO here he is with Locus for moral support, plucking at the strings, managing the pleased grin of a man halfway into his third or fifth shot of tequila. ]


Y"all know the drill- [ Drunk York is texan drawling york, oh no. ] But this time y'all can also request a song and I'll see if I can remember how to play it. No promises.

I am uncertain if you are aware but that was the rough AI equivalent of waving or knocking on her front door.

[ don't make this weird, anon. ]
goddamngrenades: (So you're saying it's impossible.)

[personal profile] goddamngrenades 2017-01-23 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
Why would I ever do that? It is a sincere inquiry.

[ For once, Monkey Mom is being gentle with the meme! And concerned. ]

Until they get there, keep posting so we know you're all right.

I'm not being sent out, so no one's being held up by my being here. They'll be there soon.

It's going to be okay. Are you somewhere safe?

[Now a message from a Coluan child who's just seen their parents, infamous for suggesting experiments to enhance brain development through specialized growth hormones shortly before the death of their first child, have their brains grow too large for their skulls and exit. Violently.]

I read everything they send the Chief, you know. I really don't need that volume of questionable pornography directed at me, too.

[it takes approximately none of her time to filter through a bunch of porny fanfic, which delta would know perfectly well

but still, some things can't be unseen]

(Anonymous) 2017-01-23 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
is anywhere safe? it just sent my drone here

oh stars, the Spectre knows where I live

i mean true but how about 60k of emotional turmoil as they fight against their natures to try to stay good, both helping and hurting each other as they do, before one of them tragically goes too far and the other has to kill them in self-defense?

...or is that just me? brb gotta outline.

(Also I vote Captain Paladin)

Yes. And if he wanted to hurt you, he probably would have already. How long has it been since that recording happened?

(Anonymous) 2017-01-23 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
[An official request from a security team. The Spectre took a backwater politician who rose on the promise that there weren't any strings on him and turned him into a marionette with his own circulatory system before hanging him off of a statue of Valor.]

[A report of a TV star, rumored to have been involved in the drowning death of a costar but exonerated because of a lack of proof, somehow drowning on land in her own living room.]
