@Adaora_ble @privatebirb @RealiaAmelia Not necessarily. A Christian writing Christian literature certainly wouldn’t conceptualize themselves as a “fan.” I think being a fan is a much more specific thing than having an intellectual, theological, philosophical etc. interest in a subject

@Adaora_ble @privatebirb @RealiaAmelia (The characters collectively, to be clear. You don’t have to like every single character in Harry Potter to write Harry Potter fanfiction)

[beaten for failure to imagine dragons @tallfilth]

@Adaora_ble @privatebirb @RealiaAmelia I’d say it’s “fandom-“ often but not always in the organized sense (fandom as a community) but fundamentally I’d say fanfiction is written of people, characters, etc. as a result of belonging to a fandom or personally being a fan of those characters

@idobadtakes Having started in CS and swapping to English bc I hated the former (best decision I ever made), CS was a loooooot harder *unless* you were entering English with really underdeveloped reading / writing skills.

@Qxnznghggktygf @Autonomorantula Photography is about the human use of the camera, I think under my definition there would be forms of photography which wouldn’t qualify as art (I.e. anything automatic or with insufficient human input). Again, I don’t really agree myself, it’s just internally consistent

@Adaora_ble @privatebirb @RealiaAmelia I don’t deny that you can make fanfiction about real people. The question is whether every single work of fiction written about people qualifies as fanfiction (to which I’d say no)

[beaten for failure to imagine dragons @tallfilth]

@brattyslava It just seems odd to me that these “fanfiction” definitions completely dispense with the “fan” part. “Fanfiction” as a product of “fandom” is a seperate thing from historical fiction, it seems reasonable to have a specific term for the former

@filterflowers I don’t think it’s strictly wrong to say that but “fanfiction” as typically used today is also a specific cognizable thing distinct from, say, catholic literature. So I think you’d need a new term for what’s currently called “fanfiction” so it’s kinda just shuffling definitions

It's so funny how pizzagate was predicated on this belief that pedophiles communicate in elaborate codes and every Epstein email is like "having sex with underage girls later, hmu."

@privatebirb @RealiaAmelia Is twilight fanfiction (in its mass-published form)? It doesn’t technically contain characters from another work, they’re just obvious rips, but obvious rips happen everywhere all the time in one form or another (if not usually so blatant)

[beaten for failure to imagine dragons @tallfilth]

@privatebirb @RealiaAmelia I guess the issue I have with that definition is it requires you to determine what’s “canon” where that can easily be in dispute- like for example the Bible kinda both is and isn’t fanfiction (bc it’s Christian canon but essentially Jewish fanfiction)

[beaten for failure to imagine dragons @tallfilth]

@privatebirb @RealiaAmelia I think we disagree about what “fanfiction” is but your definition isn’t wrong per se.. though I am curious what that definition is

[beaten for failure to imagine dragons @tallfilth]

@HedProtag @viperwave Good luck, it looks like literally no one is on his side (he’s made basically zero affirmative case for himself and obviously didn’t make the game) so if you can survive legally you’ll hopefully be good

[beaten for failure to imagine dragons @tallfilth]

@privatebirb @RealiaAmelia If a write a fictionalized account of the life of a real historic figure where some/most of the characters that appear are real people would you call that fanfiction?

[beaten for failure to imagine dragons @tallfilth]

@privatebirb @RealiaAmelia “Self-insert” is a common fanficfion thing but it’s not in any way exclusive to fanfiction. “Christian lore” kinda buried the lede.. by that logic anything belonging to any intellectual tradition is “fanfiction” of that tradition which means basically all fiction is fanfiction
