I'm honestly shocked that since Emotion/Representation aired I've yet to see anyone do anything at all with Felix and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein??? I think about it every day it's literally THE Felix piece of media. It's his entire character thesis. What are we doing guys

I KNOW I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT IT THE OTHER DAY

To be fair I have seen a few people headcanoning it as one of Felix’s favourite books (Which yes. Absolutely. 1,000,000%) but there hasn’t been any fics/art/edits/etc. about it yet to my knowledge. My copy is at my parents’ and in French but I am tempted to find an English PDF since it’s been public domain for a good while now. The web weave potential is insane.

I have many thoughts about Felix and literature in general… I have him quote Cyrano de Bergerac all the time in my fics, for example. I was thinking of starting a list of works of art and literature he’d enjoy, so I’ll take this as a sign to get writing! I can get my fandom friends to make some suggestions as well! 📝

I wonder what internet linguists, and specifically fandom linguists, think about fandoms that don't have portmanteau ship names/follow general shipping conventions. Specifically, what do they think of the pokemon fandom and the Danny Phantom fandom.

For pokemon, it's not that the show is an anime, because shows like Black Butler, Full Metal Alchemist, and Ouran High School Host Club all fall into common shipping conventions with some outliers. Pokemon has its own hyper-specific naming conventions (ending all of the ship names with -Shipping) that are really hard to parse for anyone that is not In The Fandom. Pokemon ship names are also across media, so the uniformity of the ship names is impressive as it is necessary.

And then, there is the black hole of insanity (I say, with all of the love and respect in my heart as I, too, am DP trash) that is Danny Phantom Fandom ship names. A not insubstantial number of the ship names are full phrases. Hell, some of them don't even make sense to people who haven't seen the show in a bit or haven't been watching closely. Why is Danny Fenton/Danny Phantom "Pitch Pearl"? Your guess is as good as mine! Most of them are puns or self referential (such as "Smells like Teen Spirits" for Danny/Ember or "Shallow Sapphire" for Danny/Paulina) but I had to get those ship names from a collected list on AO3. here

Let's not even get into the actual spreadsheet for Danny Phantom x DC crossover fics.

Idk, I just think these two are interesting outliers in an otherwise pretty set convention.

Professor Kranio Macabre, a lecturer in spells, trap rune designs and other such ilk. He takes a strong stance on Necromancy being a valid school of magic. Not a fan of the sun, and likes to be thorough in his teachings, and sometimes slams down a sword to make a point, and a groove in the floor, to the students.

oh yeah. the reason why i decided to reread tbhk (and thus it was able to hit me like a truck this time around) was actually not bc of mitsukou going canon but actually bc i maybe accidentally started a tbhk book club w my kids at work and wanted to check the contents of it justttt in case before i put the books in their hands
