THE IMPORT FANDOM MEME

Almost every imPort's got a certain level of celebrity from the moment they set foot in this world. (Even you, newbies.) It's what they get for being aliens with superpowers. Love 'em or hate 'em, everyone knows about 'em. And some very special people out there get obsessed with 'em. So this meme's all for talking about your character's celebrity reputation and fandom in this world. Let's hear about it! Known For: Their heroism? Fashion sense? Love life? What makes them special? Famous Headlines: What incidents got them into the spotlight? Fan Community: What demographic are they popular with? Is there a nickname? Popular Ships: Which pairings inspired the most fic up on this world's AO3? Fandom Quirk: Do their fans wear flower crowns? Do they mail people dead birds? Anything Else: Elaborate. <b>Known For:</b> <b>Famous Headlines:</b> <b>Fan Community:</b> <b>Popular Ships:</b> <b>Fandom Quirk:</b> <b>Anything Else:</b>

[ursawhiner]

Known For: that episode of UnderSTANding Stuff about the owl
Famous Headlines: Two Pre-Teens Caught Joyriding with Owl; Cite Going to Disneyworld as Reason
Fan Community: Pine Apples
Popular Ships: NO/Mabel and every cute boy
Fandom Quirk: they wear sweaters and stupid hats
Anything Else: They crash Nonah 005's Twine channel fairly often and thus, have some crossover fans. No one will teach them how to upload video to the internet for their own safety.

[glitterateur]

OTHER QUIRK: so many patterns exist on the internet based on mabel's sweaters. so many.

Winry Rockbell

[hands4healing]

Known For: Being so gosh-darn helpful. Her metal-working skills. That amazing automail she's always working on.
Famous Headlines: Fullmetal Alchemist and his Mechanic caught shopping!
Would you want this Girl for your Engineer?
Winry Rockbell Revs Our Engines!
Fan Community: Mechanically Inclined
Popular Ships: Edward Elric, Riku, Dorian Grey. Femslash pairing: Riza Hawkeye. Creepy pairing: Solf Kimblee
Fandom Quirk: Carrying tiny crescent wrenches in some shape or form (earrings, necklaces, tattoos...)
Anything Else: Winry is practically oblivious to all of this but would be flattered if she knew about it...and probably offer to start teaching engineering classes. Someone stop her.
Additionally, if she found out about people shipping her, it'd most likely creep her out.
She has a subset of creeper fans who produce some hentai-type doujins.

[hands4healing]

Okay, she kinda needs to find out about the hentai doujins.

...or Ed does.

*whistles*

[glitchinthesystem]

Known For: A Slayer of the Red Death, Unpopular opinions on the government
Famous Headlines: A group of imPort individuals take down giant behemoth that torched our fair cities. When the group was asked what they'd do next, Glitch's answer was to wear the hide of his fallen foe for reasons.

imPort openly mocks government at latest swear in. When asked for comment his response was to shrug and say "they f***king suck"
Fan Community: Glitchers
Popular Ships: Getting shipped with his fans characters/ the fans themselves.
Fandom Quirk: Wearing the same hoodie everyday...that may be normal teen behaviour though.
Anything Else: Glitch has no idea there is an online fandom of him and gets weirded out when other people seem to know him.

rhys

[promotional]

Known For: doing a few infomercials and cheesing it up
Famous Headlines: none just yet... he's been lowkey
Fan Community: mostly middle-aged house spouses who have seen these infomercials and enjoy that nice spaceman who endorses the miracle spray
Popular Ships: Rhys and self-inserts, if any
Fandom Quirk: Possibly buying blue contacts and only using one. Getting into robotics even though it takes a lot more training than anyone is bothering with. Tucking ties into their pants.
Anything Else: Rhys is so down to earth, man! He will totally hang out with his fans and let them buy him coffee. In fact, he insists!

caesar zeppeli

[glampop]

Known For: being a vintage model! dressing classy and looking good!
Famous Headlines: there are some murmurings about his recent(ish) engagement, but no headlines
Fan Community: folks in their late teens/20s primarily. No one's super rabid but people might collect the magazines he appears in and send him fan emails from time to time.
Popular Ships: well, he's engaged to Joseph Joestar, so...
Fandom Quirk: shitty headbands and too much white and getting into Italian shit (italiboos)
Anything Else: Caesar has been trying to tame down his wardrobe to better fit in with the modern culture, but when he walks out in something ridiculous is when his fans are happiest. LIVE YOUR LIFE, ZEPPELI.

JESSE PINKMAN

[hostage]

Known For: charity and volunteer work, random acts of kindness and generosity, a troubled past, promiscuity, rumored relapse and sexual deviance
Famous Headlines: IMPORT SCHOOL NURSE COMES CLEAN ABOUT STRUGGLE WITH DRUG ABUSE / 100% RECOVERY OF TERMINALLY ILL PATIENTS AT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
Fan Community: "bitches" - 15-30 y.o. females who wear black and hate their parents; also 35-50 y.o. housewives who want to adopt and/or fuck him
Popular Ships: Jesse/Skye aka "Pink Skye" remains the reigning OTP by far
Fandom Quirk: copying his scorpion tattoo, which they mistake as the source of his healing touch
Anything Else: Jesse keeps a low profile and isn't that well-known. Interest in him peaked around the time Freddie Lounds leaked a bunch of imPort files, which included his own and revealed his history of drug abuse and mental illness. He quickly worked to clean up his image by discussing his recovery in a few "brave" and "inspiring" interviews and subsequently dropped back into obscurity. He only pops back up on the occasional gossip column after being spotted in questionable company. Otherwise, the results of his hospital volunteer work draw more attention than he himself. His small but loyal fanbase is fixated on him for his puppy-dog looks and his "bad boy with a heart of gold" vibe. He corresponds with fans semi-regularly on social media and often takes advantage of his status for sex. Every so often, a fan will appeal to him to heal a gravely ill acquaintance, and he always complies free of charge.

[kingpawn]

:') /starts writing Walt/Jesse fanfics in his spare time.

KELS AND TRACE WHERE ARE YOU I need your manips

Known For: Saving the space shuttle with Power Girl; attending various crises and accidents; being obnoxiously helpful with things like old ladies with cats in trees; visiting late night diners with a big golden eyesore. He's actually pretty well known by now, because he's been a very active, very visible hero for a year. GO YOU, SKIPPY.
Famous Headlines: Blue Beetle and Power Girl Foil Soviets From Space, Blue Beetle Spotted Saving Neighborhood Cat, Blue Beetle on Gangs: "Have You Tried Talking?", The Tall and the Small: Blue Beetle & Booster Gold Team-Up Spotted
Fan Community: Blue Beetle Fanclub. They frequent Will's store to purchase hats and T-shirts, and they're all old ladies.
Popular Ships: N/A, HE LOOKS LIKE A BUG. (Some people might be into that?)
Fandom Quirk: Makes a mean plate of brownies; awfully good at knitting.
Anything Else: One of the members' name is Janice, and she's wants to tap Will. Godspeed, Will. The Blue Beetle's also been known for being kind of atrocious on camera, and often just flying away.

Jaime Reyes has no fans because NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOU, JAIME

ALSO KELS AND TRACE ARE THE ONES WHO MADE UP THE FANCLUB because I gave them godmod rights.

they made this: NEWS ARTICLE and this PICTURE.

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

Those headlines are amazing I love what Jaime's media life has become

Jacob Taylor

[darkpants_warmfeeling]

Known For: Pre-Archangel, helping out in disasters and being from THE FUTURE. Post-Archangel, being an ILLEGAL VIGILANTE which is either totally badass or a sign of Communist subversion, depending on which corners of the Interwebs you frequent.
Famous Headlines: imPort Runs Into Burning Building Without Firefighting Gear, Saves Lives
Rogue Vigilante 'Protector' Makes Internet Statement; Defends Casino Heist
Archangel Mastermind is From a Future Without America - Where Do His Loyalties Lie?
Fan Community: The Protectorate, after Jacob's superhero alias
Popular Ships: 'Taylornagi' has been popular ever since the story got out that Jacob and the Major were arrested fighting side by side against the police when Archangel went down. There's something romantic about tragic rogues and last stands... There is also 'Taylenko' for the M/M contingent, speculating breathlessly about Jacob and Kaidan.
Fandom Quirk: Recently, Jacob Taylor fandom and Archangel fandom have become one and the same. Archangel fandom tends to bring together the people who hate cops and the people who hate criminals into one space defined by dramatic events, controversy, and unreliable information. There is so much political drama.
Anything Else: Jacob remains blissfully unaware of the Protectorate, and will remain happier the longer it stays this way.

[khajidont]

UGH, you're oppressing my ship :((((

you have failed to mention the master ot3, taylenknagi, but they're NOTORIOUS for making motoko into a self-insert and daydreaming themselves between all that man

[bindsthedead]

Known For: Fighting the Hornets, curing brainwashed imPorts, fighting a dragon, fighting Melkor, general heroism/crimefighting. Also, for putting on magic shows with real magic at the Iceberg lounge, and generally using it to heal/entertain people whenever she's politely asked.
Famous Headlines: Rogue imPorts Restored to Sanity, Dragon Slain by imPorts, Necromancer arrested by Abhorsen
Fan Community: Mostly teenagers and young adults, along with a surprising large number of older people.
Popular Ships: Touka, and probably some of her other students.
Fandom Quirk: A lot of skull and key motifs on clothes and jewelery. Along with bells- a surprising number of her fans have joined handbell choirs. Some have drawn marks on their foreheads, much to Sabriel's embarrassment.
Anything Else: Sabriel's somewhat aware of her fandom, and has given interviews- mostly, she tries to either use her celebrity to speak for good causes and create a better impression of imPorts, when she isn't doing her best to ignore it.

[redplainsrider]

Known For: For helpin' folks when folks need a-helpin', for savin' young'uns when young'uns need a-savin', et cetera
Famous Headlines: She's probably stopped a full scale bank robbery or two. Ain't no big deal. She probably gets mentioned once in awhile in smaller interior sections of the news paper with police reports and such. (I'm shit at writing actual headlines so you don't get any, sorry.)
Fan Community: There may be a varied amount of folks she's popular with. She'd be kid friendly for she doesn't cuss, and cowboys are obviously for kids, women looking for a tough inspiration would be into her, and gross pervy dudes into cowgirls riding them, I'm sure.
Popular Ships: She would hope with her actual boyfriend, Croach, but that might weird people out too much (so they probably make headcanon human forms for him that are super animu pretty). Don't think she's seen enough with another guy for people to have other ships, but, then again, knowing fandom, some folks probably ship her with any hot police officer or imPorts she's been seen talking to and make some big epic fanfic about it.
Fandom Quirk: She dresses like she's from the old west, you tell me what the quirk will be. True fans online type like how she talks, and it's probably completely indecipherable.
Anything Else: She doesn't want to know a damn thing about anything fandom at all ever. Too weird, buckaroos. Too weird. Especially you older, pervy dudes that email her sometimes.

She does really like the drawings little kids send her sometimes, though.

[runningstart]

Known For: Being banned from nearly every all-you-can-eat buffet on the east coast; dodging traffic and giving motorists heart attacks; being a really obnoxious but fairly decent kid; clashing terribly
Famous Headlines: Neon Teen Foils Bank Robbery Too Quickly For Decent Press; The Yellow Streak - the Menacing Malcontent; 'Fast Boy' Voted Dumbest Superhero Name Ever; Clashing Costumes: The New Black?; Ginger Superhero's Costume Isn't Fooling Anybody; Apparently His Name Is Kid Flash; Kid Flash: Legal or Libel?
Fan Community: a small group of kids nerdier than he is who dress up like him for cosplay; another small subset of fans who debate how his powers are physically possibly in obscure forums; almost none of the hot female zealots he proclaims to have
Popular Ships: someone once said they saw him with some tiny kid in a mask dressed up like an upside down umbrella, but it was concluded that the child he was with must have been a grade schooler in a trash bag and the ship was quickly dismissed
Fandom Quirk: they all are somehow just as annoying as he is
Anything Else: wally shockingly does not keep up with his fanbase, which is odd. one would think this glory hog would love to meet people who adore him, but he tends to steer clear. online speculation guesses that he's illegally practicing heroism, but because nobody's managed to get him on camera lately there have been no convictions or legal repercussions.

some time ago someone connected an import who worked at starktech named perhaps 'willy' or 'rudy' or something stupid like that was kid flash, but suspicions were immediately dismissed because that ginger kid looked like way too much of a dork.

ADD'L HEADLINES - FEEL FREE TO ADD

[runningstart]

[kanadian]

Known For: Pompadour and his butt, and also for being rumored to have cleared out a 24/7 diner once (it was actually both him and shepard)
Famous Headlines: Imports powerless: 3 Imports stop a Russian Spy, The one Import who likes Canadian Lagers (Inebriation monthly - Part of their Inebriated Imports series), Blue Armor Backing up the Boys in Blue, import helps bring in Vigilante
Fan Community: It's a small fandom, most people think he's useless and is surprised he isn't dead, but he's got a few devoted fans who follow him, even though he doesn't do much heroing, and there's a contingent of women who definitely write self-insert fanfiction
Popular Ships: There's an oddly high number of self-insert fans, a small group of taylenko fans, but there's a pretty large group that figured out that he lives with a dude from his world, so shenko shippers make up the largest portion of the shippers, who get into fights with everyone else
Fandom Quirk: Most of them are actually fans of other people, tbh, but they occasionally reblog photos and snapshots of the major if they see him
Anything Else: Kaidan definitely has no idea about what's going on out there. He's kind of trying to ignore it, and thankfully, it's not exactly Spectre-levels of stardom

[khajidont]

I hope you know that jaime took a picture with a shepaidan cosplayer and showed it to shep HE WILL FORCE THEM TO BE AWARE

[rathercommon]

Known For: Having incredibly strong opinions on social issues. Engaging with locals and making friends with them; being an approachable celebrity. Helping fans get in touch with sexier, more mysterious imPorts. Occasionally getting in really, really big trouble.
Famous Headlines: Helping bring down Lunatic. Various human-interest pieces about imPort charity activities. Most notably, getting kidnapped by Hornets: it was the perfect storm of a pretty young celebrity girl ending up in distress and then a bunch of heroes banding together to save her; newscasters are still indebted to the ratings bump from her ordeal.
Fan Community: Largely Kitty is popular with teenage girls who think she is intensely cool. She comes across as so practical and down-to-earth and smart, and she's pretty but not in a high-maintenance way, and so she seems like someone that girls can become if they work at it. This is helped by the fact that she regularly talks to and engages with her fans. There are also a fair number of boys in her fandom, though they seem a little lost and tend to get marginalized by the others.
Popular Ships: Kitty/Mandrake. Kitty/Bartimaeus. Kitty/just about everyone who came to help her during the Hornets thing. (Fandom loves H/C fic.) Kitty/Edgeworth. (Fandom loves hatemances.)
Fandom Quirk: Go out and volunteer for charities...in cosplay.
Anything Else: Kitty Jones fans have sort of an online reputation for craziness. They post Helpful Reminders to the Bruce Wayne fans that liking a rich white man is Problematic and use some pretty shrill rhetoric and call other fan communities "literal scum" a fair amount.

[khajidont]

kitty jones is on the 'do not interview' list on several local papers that handle pieces like "Gary's Garden"; she tends to monopolize the volunteer writers and they find it very difficult to disentangle themselves from her speeches

[infomodder]

Known For: Liking fishing more than retired men twice his age, formerly using his underwater breathing power to fix stalled boats any time day or night, dog whispering, helping the Blue Beetle fanclub get their merchandise, acting strange at crime scenes
Famous Headlines:
ImPort Leads Shark Catch-Tag-Release Program to Help Gather Data on These Largely Misunderstood Apex Predators
ImPort Asked About Recent Events with Hornets Responds with Strange Metaphors
Are ImPorts America's New Depression? - a scientific article on whether or not imPorts experience their own category of loneliness, there is a picture of Will pulling a Sad Keanu at the top. It has been manipped a time or two, sometimes featuring Happy Jeff Winger strolling away from him
Fan Community: Under 21, you're a Teddy Graham. Over, you're a Grahammie. He's mostly popular with younger people who like the shaggy look and alternate between wanting him to have a happy life and wanting him to suffer horribly because he must be beautiful when he cries. AND one older lady named Janice who claims he looks like her dearly departed husband Ernie and uses this to frequently ogle him and kiss his cheeks.
Popular Ships: April/Will, though Crane/Graham rose recently thanks to some of their coworkers. There is still a small section for Freddie/Will, despite her disappearance. But Will Graham/Author Self-Insert is the most common, usually featuring Linkin Park, Mumford & Sons, or Florence + The Machine lyrics for fic titles.
Fandom Quirk: Wearing plaid.
Anything Else: There is a really long multi-chapter fic out there thanks to his breathing underwater power that's essentially the movie Waterworld with Will in place of Kevin Costner. He's called Shark Trap for the whole fic.

[khajidont]

he should take advantage of his fanbase

gifts of ENDLESS PLAID

Kang

[governorkang]

Known For: Helping to take down Crematia, one of the imports mentioned in the latest smear campaign, just being very visually obvious
Famous Headlines: Dragon Slain by imPorts, Shocking New Information on our 'Heroes?'
Fan Community: Anyone deeply interested in dragons or draconic things, likely a good amount of the herp-inclined furry community, the renaissance festival crowd
Popular Ships: Not enough of his personal life is known (on purpose) to make any sort of speculation
Fandom Quirk: Kilts and clothing/armor that looks like bronze scales
Anything Else: He is only vaguely aware that he has fans and he would like to keep it that way. It's just creepy. YOU PEOPLE ARE WEIRD AS SHIT.

[whathawksdo]

Known For: Being constantly surrounded by dogs, for blatant and unrepentant vigilantism (in part with Archangel), protecting the locals from other imPorts on various occasions, for being a mage because magic is awesome.
Famous Headlines: Local Dog Thief is Very Sorry, Plans on Returning All These Dogs; Mysterious Fires Plague Local Gangs and MFPD Alike; can't think of more, but probably Archangel related things.
Fan Community: Varies, but tends towards college age and up. Some of them call themselves Birdwatchers while others have enough sense to think that's silly. Crosses over into the Archangel fandom.
Popular Ships: In true protag fashion, if you've been seen with her more than once, it probably exists.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Fandom Quirk: Red paint across the nose? Let's hope it's red paint. Obsession with dogs, too.
Anything Else: She is not aware of this and will someday be horrified when she comes across these people while searching for lulzy things on the internet.

[brushoff]

I've got a fame-obsessed shithead here who can caaaaasually link some Hawke/self-insert fic in a text and oh wow whoops how'd that get here

[sassguard]

Known For: High-speed police hoverbike chases, being forced to stand uncomfortably in front of the camera way too many times as a police spokesperson (usually after the blue beetle's flown away, THANKS A LOT), too many interviews that end with "I should go", chasing down a spy or two, having an incredibly public meltdown that resulted in killing civilians he thought were husks.
Famous Headlines: Heropa's 10 Hottest Cops, 5 Reasons Imports Shouldn't Be Allowed to Drive, Policeman Kills 3 During imPort Mayhem
Fan Community: The Sheppers are a small group online, but a terribly dedicated one, though there's probably some bizarre overlap there between the people mostly interested in Shepard's relationship status and general copness (he can arrest me any day jokes run rampant) and those who genuinely think he's a badass and go around trying to emulate him with their own vigilante antics.
Popular Ships: Somehow Shenko has gotten popular enough that shit of them was getting sold at the last imPort convention (lord have mercy) but the rest of his 'fandom' is divided between self-inserts and those who insist that Shepard would never get involved with anyone, he's above all that. Moving in with Kaidan hasn't helped matters!
Fandom Quirk: They probably mimic him charging, or how he drives. Shepard has to write up a lot of tickets. Also, the red/white/black stripe is pretty iconic, but the fandom fights a lot about which side it goes on and also the relative width of each stripe...
Anything Else: Shepard doesn't realize he has a fanbase. Since getting Mako, though, there have been an awful lot of stolen shots of him walking his dog online.

[whathawksdo]

No escape from the Conrad Verners of every dimension, huh?

[dragony]

Known For: Her bad/"just misunderstood" reputation, her (arguably good) looks, her surreal monstrous portraiture
Famous Headlines: One-Eyed ImPort Shoots Man 12 Times In Face, while not the most clever, makes something of an impact; the followup Unlawful Possession: ImPort Shot 12 Times In Face Actually His Own Shooter? didn't quite get enough traction to make Ruka seem like an unfortunate victim.
Fan Community: Fuck Yeah Dragons; predominantly girls, most between 14-25. Ruka's got the cool, mysterious bad girl vibe and some of her fans are pretty sure she is actually a dragon or some other supernatural creature (which obviously makes her WAY cooler), and being not forthright at all she's totally willing to let the rumors fly.
Popular Ships: Anyone remotely attractive in her age bracket is fair game.
Fandom Quirk: Fashion eye-patches, dyed hair (not necessarily green), and deliberately covered arms, of course.
Anything Else: She's done Attribute Meme on her Rumblr once or twice and since then it has evolved into an even more surrealist version of Horoscope Meme; the attribute that gets the most unexplained hate aka Tumblr Gemini is Water. Sorry, guys.

Frederick Chilton

[slightlyoffchilt]

Known For: Noteworthy ImPort Psychiatrist, Book Deal Perpetually In Negotiation, Wasn't That Guy Pestilence Or Something?, Weird How His Girlfriends Keep Disappearing, Frequently Kidnapped, Very Vocal About Vegan Diet, Hangs Around That Pharmacist A Lot
Famous Headlines: "Multiversal Syndrome" Coined by imPort Psychiatrist, Dream Sickness Darkens Downtown Heropa Hospital
Fan Community: Chil Pills.
Popular Ships: Chilton/Raina OTP (and real life canon!!) sometimes known as Rain of Cherror. Jeff/Chilton, Matthew Lin/Chilton (in which Chilton blames Jeff for any resulting fanfiction). Depending on the popularity (and known preference) of his patients, he's prone to be shipped with them -- which is UNETHICAL and SHOULDN'T BE DONE*.

*Chilton has also actually factually dated two of his patients (Christine and Danger), though one was a "patient" and one was an artificial intelligence.
Fandom Quirk: Tie pins probably. Associating showtunes with various Chilton incidents, THOUGH HE DOES NOT KNOW WHY.
Anything Else: Sometimes Chilton goes online clandestinely and shit talks Hank Schrader and Harvey Dent. He will casually encourage animosity towards antagonistic acquaintances via Bwitter (a more acidic Twitter equivalent).

[khajidont]

what I'm seeing here is that there's definitely one buzzfeed(equiv) article about imports and chilton's entry is just "we found the vegan"

[viced]

Known For: Swearing, politics, always on TV talking about imports and the world at large, generally getting Bleeped on the Bill Mahr equivalent constantly
Famous Headlines: Victory! Three Import Politicians Ascend in 3 US Cities; The merits of the word F***!, Explained by a Politician", and: De Chima Swear in, and interview with the Ambassador
Fan Community: These guys are the worst of the worst. They're like election season junkies, except they're even worse, because they follow every exploit and every scrap of public interaction religiously. Mitchell can't even give a speech without it ending up online about twenty minutes (max) later. They don't have a name, something dry like: Mitchell Hundred Fans, because they're not clever, they're just really into politics and imports
Popular Ships: There's a small, tiny contingent that seems to think Mitchell should end up with someone, but they're extremely varied, pretty much if Mitchell's talked to someone of appropriate age, it has a shipper. Most of them are devoted to politics (LIKE HIM!!)
Fandom Quirk: Most of them wear suits, and talk a lot. His fans are very verbose.
Anything Else: Mitchell knows about them, but pretends he doesn't. His computer told him about it once.

[slightlyoffchilt]

Mitch's fans.

Newton Geiszler | Pacific Rim

[driftsintobuffetline]

Known For: Being the loud one of the two scientists, being WAAAAY too enthusiastic about something that wants to destroy the world, for drifting with a Kaiju/monster
Famous Headlines: Mad Scientist? Geiszler Suspected of Cloning Kaiju | K-Science Rockstar's College Demo-Tape Released to Terrible Reviews | Kaiju-Drifting Scientists Agents of the Hivemind? more at 11!! | Squabbling Scientists Spam Network; Geiszler Suffers DOS Attack from "Unknown" Source
Fan Community: probably popular with young people, Godzilla and Kaiju movie fans, and with middle-aged women who think he's adorable. Fans either call themselves the K-Science Rockstars or The Kaiju Groupie Groupies
Popular Ships: Hermann/Newt, Kaiju/Newt (specifically Otachi), Hannibal Chau/Newt, and sometimes Tendo/Newt (but everyone's getting it on with Tendo). When it's not K-Science lab shenanigans, it's probably Kaiju tentacle porn.
Fandom Quirk: They make tattoo sleeves of his Kaiju tatts! The very dedicated get actual tatts. They have a fondness for super-skinny ties.
Anything Else: Newt googles himself regularly. Part of him wishes he didn't.


did I do this right?

Re: Newton Geiszler | Pacific Rim

[hands4healing]

You did great.

[brushoff]

Known For: being very pretty. that's it. Aside from dating like ALL THE WRONG PEOPLE, Dorian's main contribution to imPort society is being very pretty.
Famous Headlines: it's alllllll E News and Buzzfeed shit, nothing actually serious, it's just like '23 Picture Of Dorian Gray That Will Melt Your Ovaries' or 'Top 12 Bad-Boy imPorts' or something like that
Fan Community: it used to be Graygirls but now that Dorian's probably talked about his old band on his blog, it's moving towards the Hedonists. basically, it's a Cumberbabes/Cumberbitches/Cumbercollective sort of thing where nobody knows what to call each other so there's like twelve different fandom names floating around out there.
Popular Ships: FANDOM BICYCLE. now that Toby's here, there's probably a growing amount of Dorian & Toby fic but it's all like songfic set to "A Thousand Years" but yeah, fandom bicycle.
Fandom Quirk: congratulations bookstores, you've got like SO MANY TEENAGERS picking up and reading Oscar Wilde now.
Anything Else: Dorian takes to celebrity like a fish to water, so expect SO MANY SELFIES on his rumblr. he's started to tease that he's going to put up more audio posts of him singing because thanks Shade.

[servesthehuman]

Known For: ever since it was "revealed" that he's trying to dismantle the government from the inside out at the swear-in, Owen's attracted the attention of a small group of mall goth teenage wannabe anarchists that he is INTENSELY EMBARRASSED ABOUT
Famous Headlines: nada
Fan Community: community names are for sheeple!!!! don't follow the crowd!!!! plus, there's only like twelve of them and they can't think of a name.
Popular Ships: nada as well
Fandom Quirk: people infer more of a personality than he actually has. also, Owen's dumbo teenage boys tend to get into fights with Kitty's teenage girls because you can't work WITHIN the system man, you've just gotta overthrow it all, but Kitty's teenage girls usually have things like statistics to back them up.
Anything Else: ~*wElCoMe tO mY tWiStEd mInD*~ shows up a LOT on these sorts of blogs, as well as like a TON of music, but it's all a beginner's guide to punk rock mixed with Vans Warped Tour. one of them actually tried to talk to Owen and rally support for the cause!!! when he was commuting back home from work and he ended up helping out the kid with his math homework.

Puck, on the other hand, is viewed more like an urban legend because he's only shown up on the network a few times and was caught on camera twice. Everybody knows that he doesn't REALLY exist, it's just an elaborate internet hoax, GOSH YOU GUYS.

[rathercommon]

Owen's fans get told to Educate Themselves a lot

Kitty sends Owen the funniest of these

[angelfire]

Known For: His Church, the Church of the Morningstar, his television show ImPortant!, guest spots on other shows, morning television, the occasional panel show where he is very funny, and often comments about things his fans are doing, brings up tweets he's been sent etc. He even satirises his fandom quirk on occasion to squealing fandom glee. He's also known for making sweeping assertions about human nature on serious news programs, where his position as head of a church gives him a good debate platform to make comments on everything from politicians politicking to the weather.
Famous Headlines:
Lucifer Opens New Church in Beachfront Miami
Church of the Morningstar Sees Record Attendance!
Devil Inside; My Night with the Morningstar
Satan Sues Celeb!Weekly Over Claims That Newborn Baby Boy is His!
Fan Community: Morningsters and Lucimoms are two particularly loud subsets.
Popular Ships: Lucifer and Jeff (sorry Jeff), Lucifer and his fellow panelists, Lucifer/Death, Lucifer/his brothers, Lucifer/random people from the bible written like bizarre bible OCs. I mean.
Fandom Quirk: His hipster internet fans make ironic comments about God, religion, etc. during perfectly normal conversations, and finish with WWLD (What Would Lucifer Do?), for example. At least I didn't send my only son to die on a cross wwld, my religion lets you drink alcohol and it's not even consecrated wwld, etc.
Anything Else: Lucifer encourages all this and is awful about exacerbating his fandom's crazy because supernatural. If his fandom got access to the imPort network they would probably freeze out the servers. That bad boy vibe is so appealing. There are pop songs being written about him, he features in a variety of memes and people debate the meaning behind everthing he says publically. Obviously he has a fierce group of haters, both internet style hipster haters and religious haters who point out - rightly - that Lucifer's purpose on earth in the Bible is to develop the existence of cults and drive humanity to worse and worse sin, and the fact that he's calling his religion a church disgusts them on a fundamental level. They picket. Often. But then so does he. Oh, and also he's often invited to the funerals of very rich or very evil people, because they think that if they have him on their side, he'll grant them some sort of leniency after death (after this, their families convert very easily, just saying).

[brushoff]

wrong canon, but my point still stands.

Could It Be Love? Mountie and Partner Caught Necking at Swear-In
Fan Community: The Mountaineers
Popular Ships: Fraser/Ray, obviously. IT'S JEFF'S FAULT. But no, really, this is definitely the one.
Fandom Quirk: THEY LIKE STETSONS? A Mountie fan will not be far from his/her guitar. Many of them also have huskies or try and buy half wolves, and Fraser would be disappointed to see how that's affected the mistreatment of these animals. Maybe his next order of business is a wolf sanctuary...
Anything Else: Fraser has been alerted to his fandom but he mostly ignored it.
