whoa, fandom lore

Jul 17, 2009 05:31

Once upon a time, there was a girl in HP fandom who wrote Harry/Draco, and who was thought to be a boy by pretty much everyone, until she wasn't. And then there was wank. Girl was pretty much ousted from fandom, as fandom sometimes gets its oust on.

However, people were just angry. She'd fooled them! How dare she? How could ANYONE be so deceitful? ( Read more... )

hey internet!!111, snapes on an astral plane, fandom

For some reason, I'm feeling like her name had something to do with beer...victoria....bitter? Victoria Bitter? Idk. I could have the wrong person completely. Maybe that was one of the boy-girls who caused wank in lotrs fandom. It was a long time ago.

What was with boy-girls and fandoms, anyway?

I thought Victoria Bitter was one of those people who ripped off everyone in LOTR with the con that never happened. But I might be wrong.

Oh shit I was JUST thinking about her the other day. Um. If I remember I will get back to you.

(I mean, that girl, right?)

Ok IF it's who I'm thinking of, I think her username (for her ... geocities account, or whatever; not her AOL sn) was "bitchxboi" or something like that?

Maybe? I remember her as Hannah? I think she had the screen name "slytherinseeker," but I cannot remember what name she wrote under online. bitchxboi sounds kind of right to me. I was reading old LJ entries from 2001 and like, you are totally consoling me in comments because I'm upset over her. <3 <3 <3 <3 you are such a good friend!!!

violin_road July 17 2009, 13:46:42 UTC

I was THINKING her real name was Hannah, but I was like, there's no way I can remember that.

I cannot believe that you or anyone else could forget that it was r i d d l e. DON'T YOU REMEMBER THE VOMITING RIBCAGES????? ;D

I am amazed that you had a personal relationship with r i d d l e ... the rest of us were just awestruck from afar.

reserve July 17 2009, 20:08:43 UTC

Man, I had no idea that r i d d l e was like, kind of a wank unto herself when I met her. I thought she was BEAUTIFUL AND SO DARK AND DEEP AND OMG, MY DYING SOUL.

ALSO: Rae (ravenchel) and I were just talking about you at dinner on Wednesday, because we both realized that while we both kind of "know you," we have never actually met you in person... which was amusing to us both. WHO ARE YOU?!!!!11

Okay, so this is like the most hilarious thing ever, 'cause I'm reading the comments, I'm thinking to myself, "I wonder if this chick's on PSA, but that must be too recent," because PSA was totally the FIRST FANFIC SITE I had EVER come across in fandom, period, and that was only in 2005. And I actually used to read all of this girl's fic (I find his ghost defines you now was like, one of my ~favorites~).

Like, WOAH FLASHBACK.
