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 "Resistance is Futile" and "An Eye For An Eye," and right after the recent Legion Watch.

[He honestly has no idea why he's doing this, but the picture Vance posts is one of his small army of action figures, with two versions of himself holding the sign with his name and the date.]

I'm sure there's plenty of questions, so go ahead. I reserve the right not to answer things that are too personal, though.

[(Anonymous)]

who's hotter, speedball or that fire girl?

[sir_vancelot]

Firestar. That's kinda the point of her whole power set.

[(Anonymous)]

i have been informed of your ancient dialect and rather than accuse you of knowing rudeness choose to inform you that the question was not referring to temperature. which human do you find more appealing in or of a sexual nature?

[sir_vancelot]

Oh, I know what was meant. But, as the question is now more specific in what is being asked, I'll take a pass on it being too personal.

[(Anonymous)]

Very well. We'll ask Speedball.

[sir_vancelot]

You're going to ask Speedball if he or Firestar are hotter? I'd grab some popcorn, but I'm pretty sure I know what his answer will be.

[(Anonymous)]

No, he was asked about your preference.

[sir_vancelot]

...Guys. That's really not the sort of thing to be asking people, you know. Especially when you're asking one of the people being asked ABOUT.

will u come beat up my friend's dad please

he deserves it

[sir_vancelot]

[Well. It's not like he didn't think something like this was possible. Doesn't mean that it's not an absolute gut punch to get the question.]

Why do you believe he deserves to be beaten up?

[He can handle this. He can handle this.]

[(Anonymous)]

because he's a bad person

[sir_vancelot]

If he's a bad enough person that you want him beaten up, why not take it to the authorities?

[He has a feeling where this is going. He's not entirely sure he wants it to get there.]

[(Anonymous)]

why was the roadtrip footage so discreet? just how kinky is Balls Au Justice?

[sir_vancelot]

Honestly? Probably because it's pretty boring to anybody who wasn't there. Unless you want to watch two guys driving across the US and stopping at every roadside attraction possible.

The biggest ball of twine in Minnesota is a real thing and it's pretty huge. And I am never going anywhere near the Clown Hotel in Nevada ever again.

it's hard to get the grondles going with all those eyes staring at you

[sir_vancelot]

Nothing like that happened. We just both needed time away from New York and all the stuff that went down there. Traveling together was a good idea at the time. We're not...that's not how we are.

[(Anonymous)]

you don't sound sure about that

send speedball out here. he's got a big mouth

[sir_vancelot]

Robbie's got enough going on without adding you guys to the pile. So I'll give that a no.

[(Anonymous)]

awww come on let him out

he already told us he was an edgelord. we don't care. we just want to say hi and ask who the tsundere is

[(Anonymous)]

seme. we want to know who the SEME is

we already know nova is the tsundere

[sir_vancelot]

Look, if Robbie wanted to talk to you guys, he'd already be here. I don't control where he goes or what he does.

And somehow, I had always sort of figured that a thousand years in the future, those sorts of terms would have fallen out of favor.

[Look, the Avengers had a fandom. Vance has navigated this a bit before.]

So okay maybe this is some Atlantean biology thing with the blue skin that I don't know about, but is the Namorita who died at Stamford the same one who was our Sub-Mariner? (I can't really tell humanoids apart on the best of days, sorry.)

Re: Justice

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe it's some kind of battle mode she had back home and not here?

[sir_vancelot]

Yes, it...was. The Namorita who was here was from earlier in our timeline. And also from my time. Because a supervillain broke reality and then Nova Prime broke it again.

The blue thing was a stress reaction. That's the story I heard, at least.
