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.

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.

[(Anonymous)]

The sentence construction was adequate, and so the question was posed. Your argument is deficient. Do you believe your boymate to be incapable of an intelligent response? It would explain his inarticulance.

In that case, why are you copulating with the feeble minded?

[sir_vancelot]

Incapable of an intelligent response? Of course not. But he's also not me and it's not fair to ask him to compare himself to somebody else based on what he may think are MY parameters of attractiveness.

[(Anonymous)]

It's evident that his knowledge of you should provide for a discussion of your sexual proclivities if not prowess. Unless the barbaric penal colonies of your age practiced physical or chemical castration, I do not understand this inability to discuss biological impulses.

[(Anonymous)]

not sure if someone pretending to be a coluan to make coluans look bad or just a coluan

[(Anonymous)]

I don't care so long as they get him to answer.

I'm writing the castrated life partners comfort fix anyway, but it's nice to have the ring of truth

[(Anonymous)]

oh my sprocking goddess were you raised by elavian tundra-worms

[(Anonymous)]

I like cuddle fic. This is a judgment free zone

[(Anonymous)]

are you new all we do is judge

anyway i don't care about your kinks but maybe don't discuss it RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE SENTIENT YOU'RE WRITING RPF ABOUT

raised by tundra-worms i s2g

[(Anonymous)]

He doesn't mind. They both sound so repressed I bet they'll read it.

[(Anonymous)]

just promise me you won't go up to them at legioncon and give them a copy of the fic

that might be acceptable in tundra-worm society but it's very rude and cringe-y in the up

[(Anonymous)]

I am the height of discretion. I'm going to mail it to them with a selection of massage items and ancient Earthen love songs
