Oh Crap, There Are Fanfics of Us: Difference between revisions

Line 18:

* ''[[Durarara!!]]'' actually has ''canon'' examples of this. Far from being just very vocal [[Shipper on Deck|shippers]], both Walker and Erika have been known to write fanfic (porny or otherwise) of their friends, and [[Too Much Information|don't care who knows it]].

{{quote|'''Celty:''' [[Talking with Signs|[...Where did they get my personal information?]]]}}

* Happens [[In-Universe]] in [[Genshiken]]: Ogiue is such a [[Yaoi Fangirl]] that she even draws erotic doujinshi of the Genshiken members, casting Sasahara as a [[Bastard Boyfriend]] and Madarame as the classic [[Uke]]. When Sasahara asks her out, she (reluctantly) tells him about it; he's surprised, but not shocked. Ogiue then shows said doujinshi to Sasahara, who good-naturedly teases her about it. {{spoiler|And then they kiss, and start dating.}}

** Also a part of her backstory: {{spoiler|her 'friends' showed the guy she once liked a hardcore yaoi doujin she drew about him. Ogiue [[Heroic BSOD|is so shocked]] that she attempts to kill herself}}.

* In an omake chapter of ''[[Girl Friends]],'' [[Sensei-chan|Narumatsu-sensei]] learns that Tamamin has drawn a rape manga of her and some girls in the class. This naturally freaks her out.

Line 81:

== Literature ==

* [[Christopher Pike]] used this in ''Master of Murder''. An author names his characters after his friends, and then the fanfics become canon (i.e., they happen in [[Real Life]]). Hilarity doesn't exactly ensue, being a Pike novel.

* [[Don Quixote]]: At chapter LIX of the second part, Don Quixote hears some guys talking about the [[Fan Fiction]] Avellaneda wrote about [[Don Quixote]]. This is only the beginning of Don Quixote and Sancho's continuous attacks against Avellaneda for the [[Character Derailment]] in the rest of the novel. This makes this trope [[Older Than Steam]].

{{quote|The instant Don Quixote heard his own name be started to his feet and listened with open ears to catch what they said about him, and heard the Don Jeronimo who had been addressed say in reply, "Why would you have us read that absurd stuff, Don Juan, when it is impossible for anyone who has read the First Part of the history of 'Don Quixote of La Mancha' to take any pleasure in reading this Second Part?"

"For all that," said he who was addressed as Don Juan, "we shall do well to read it, for there is no book so bad but it has something good in it. What displeases me most in it is that it represents Don Quixote [[Character Derailment|as now cured of his love for Dulcinea del Toboso."]]

On hearing this Don Quixote, full of wrath and indignation, lifted up his voice and said, [[Take That|"Whoever he may be who says that Don Quixote of La Mancha has forgotten or can forget Dulcinea del Toboso, I will teach him with equal arms that what he says is very far from the truth; for neither can the peerless Dulcinea del Toboso be forgotten, nor can forgetfulness have a place in Don Quixote; his motto is constancy, and his profession to maintain the same with his life and never wrong it."]] }}

* ''This Is Not A Game'' by Walter Jon Williams is an original-fiction example. The protagonist is stranded in Indonesia when its currency collapses, causing rioting. She enlists the help of a bunch of alternate reality gamers to get her out, not all of whom believe it's really happening. As a gag gift, one of her friends later presents her with a bound copy of the Fan Fiction some of these gamers wrote about her.

*In ''The Scum Villain's Self Saving System'', after his resurrection Shen Qingqiu discovers that during the time he spent dead in-universe ballads depicting his relationship with Luo Binghe. The problem is that most of those ballads are highly inaccurate on the facts, adding a lot of sex and more romantic reciprocity than there actually was, and a very mortified Shen Quingqiu can only describe them with the same terms he used in life to describe fanfiction.

== Live-Action TV ==

Line 117:

* The [[Legion of Net.Heroes]] once dealt with a boy with telepathic powers who was accidentally broadcasting his LNH slashfic across the city.

* The [[That Guy With The Glasses]] crowd is well-aware of their fandom. At one point Bennett [http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/bt/the-sage/fanfic-theatre/13982-ep011 actually analyzed some on Masterpiece Fanfic Theatre.]

** Also one of the scenes from the [[Atop the Fourth Wall]] ''Warrior #2-3'' review features an alternate Dr. Insano pawing at the alternate Linkara (both based on Johnny from ''[[The Room]]''), who tells him to stop [[Ho Yay|giving the slash ficcers material]].

** Iron Liz and Linkara once went through some [[High School AU]] fics of their online personas. On [[Twitter]], she wondered why she was always written as the semi-popular one.

** This is parodied in one fic, which details the cast of the site finding the Hookerverse fanfiction and being horribly disgusted by it. They end up getting revenge by reaching out of the computer and attacking the author.

Line 140:

{{quote|"Oh my God. Honey, you have got to come up here. I do not believe this! They have Goose and Niko having sex!"}}

** To which ''everyone'' at the table did a [[Face Palm]]—she was sitting at a table full of [[Fanfic]] writers, many of whom had ''written'' a ship fic or three.

* [[Quentin Tarantino]] and [[Eli Roth]] both discovered all the Fan Fics and Rule 34 of ''[[Inglourious Basterds]]'', and were ecstatic about it. And decided to forward as many fanfics to their parents as possible. Before discussing how unrealistic they are. ("Everyone knows that the Bear Jew is a [[Incredibly Lame Pun|pitcher, not a catcher.]]")

** There's also the part where they comment on the [[Kink Meme]], where Tarantino's is basically "WTF the Bear Jew always tops!" Which they show to the ''rest'' of the cast.

* Another Real-Life example, which in turn inspired a fic: first, the hosts of Britain's ''Friday Night Project'' surprised [[David Tennant]] with [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alzbKK_UF70 dramatic readings] of explicit [[Doctor Who]] fic. Tennant's absolutely shocked reaction spawned [http://sam-storyteller.dreamwidth.org/116839.html this story.]

{{quote|Me and @simonpegg once wrote some Nicholas Angel and Danny Butterman slash fiction. It was called HOT FUZZ...(applause)"

"@simonpegg I too am deeply flattered by the slashers. I say all power to hand-stitched homoerotica." }}

* Judging from the blog posts, strips and pictures, [[Hidekaz Himaruya]] is at least aware of fanfics and works based on ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]''...and he seems to be pretty cool with that. He even ''thanks'' the fandom for those.

* There is this internet phenomenon in [[Nico Nico Douga]] called "Utatte mita", or: people doing their cover version of songs they like, usually from [[Anime]] and [[Video Games]]. Many of them are surprisingly good<ref>[[Sturgeon's Law]] applies</ref> and/or have exotic voice, and some of those people develops into elaborate internet personae and have avatars of them drawn by their fans. Naturally, the next step is slashing them. Since this is inevitable (and is a measure of notability), most of them are cool with it.
