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.)

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Because this was pretty great on the last meme: Legion World staffers! Give us Legionnaire details! Doesn't matter how small - we just want to know things about our faves. :::)

We're probably going to be cleaning out Blue Rose's room later today. The Legion's said that they're gonna leave her hab area up (Don't see why, it's just a miniature gym with a recording studio) but there's no reason to preserve her actual room.

Leaving out the generics, such as bed, standard furniture, toiletries, computer...

1 spare costume (Altered from her original. Looks like she wanted to show less skin and add some subtle armored plating. Athramites will probably recycle it.)

1 swimsuit, two-piece. (To be recycled)

4 pairs of shoes/boots. (Running, two sets of 'fancy dress', comfortable wearing boots. To be recycled.)

1 make-up kit. (To be recycled.)

14 sets of clothing and a receipt for a custom, insulated, white faux-fur coat. (To be recycled.)

1 folded paper rose. (I think it's supposed to be that Valor Day gift she got? We're just gonna leave it in her hab. Paperboy can reclaim it later.)

10 'freezing liquid capsule' bullets. (To be sent to the tech labs)

1 plush tiger. (To be recycled.)

1/2 case of mineral water. (To be recycled.)

3 holographic displays for personal pictures. (Unknowns displayed. People from home? To be recycled.)

5 datachips on mathematics from the Legion World library. (To be returned.)

Looks like she didn't exactly have the time to pick up a lot of personal belongings.

Timber Wolf hasn't washed his bedsheets in over a year. I think he's afraid that they wouldn't smell like Tinya and Jo anymore if he did.

Doesn't the smell go away anyway over time? That seems kind of pointless even if it's sad.

When they went back in time a few weeks ago, Gates brought back some really old books by the Marx brothers. I read one while I was cleaning his room once. I think they must've been better in the movies, because their books were dull as hell.

Was one of them called "Capital," by any chance?

Yes, actually!

the only thing in cortana's quarters besides the furniture is a bunch of master chief action figures.

seriously, the only thing.

I'm not sure if that's cute or creepy.

Is it at least different versions? Or just the same ones bought over and over?

all different ones.

"feel weirdly judged by two dozen scale models of the same legionnaire" wasn't on my bucket list, yet here i am.

Amp gets up to jog at 0400 every morning. He spends literally his entire day either working out or doing school work.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone go with him, either. He's been here, what, six months and he still doesn't have any friends? Sad.

idk, anon. i love my friends and they'd still be on their own if they wanted to go work out at four in the goddamn morning.

I'm pretty sure that Payback spends more time in the ventilation system than in her room.

I hear that if you put a plate of food near a ventilation shaft, she'll leave little trinkets by your pillow when you wake up.

justin time raps.

it's an experience.

He mentioned having Blue Rose teach him how to bring his music to our world.

Sounded like she wasn't a fan.

i'm not into rap so it's hard for me to judge if it's actually any good. maybe if it was actually polished and set to music? but all i've ever heard is that weird mumbling under his breath thing he does all the time. like he just sits there during lunch talking to himself and it just slowly dissolves into rapping. or evolves maybe, idk.
