euchronia<br />
To envision a better time, usually in terms <strong>of</strong> a<br />
golden age (versus "eutopia," the envisioning <strong>of</strong> a<br />
better place). Noted here because long-term fans<br />
Star Trek<br />
tend to do it. A LOT. ;)<br />
Refers to any Star Wars information derived from a<br />
Extended source other than the films -- books, <strong>com</strong>ics, toy<br />

EU or E/U.<br />

Nope, that's not a typo -- this is an old term<br />
referring to self-referential fiction about fans and/or<br />
faanfiction fandom itself, usually in the form <strong>of</strong> satire laden with old fandom<br />
injokes. See Subreality or metafic for more recent<br />

An expression <strong>of</strong> shock or surprise -- the<br />
character's mouth hangs open, their face sags, and<br />
their eyes go huge and blank. Similar to the "jawdrop"<br />
<strong>of</strong> American animation.<br />
An expression <strong>of</strong> shock or surprise -- the character<br />
falls down face-first, as if they have literally been<br />
knocked over by astonishment. Usually a reaction<br />
to monumental stupidity.<br />
Divisions among Forever Knight fans, a highly<br />
splintered fandom -- ie. those <strong>who</strong> support<br />
particular pairings (slash or het), characters<br />
(Knighties, FoD=Friends <strong>of</strong> Don), traits (Dark<br />
Knighties, Dark Perks), icons (Caddywhackers),<br />
and even those <strong>who</strong> refuse to be pigeon-holed<br />
(DieHards).<br />

Short for "fanatic," the definition <strong>of</strong> "fan" depends<br />
on <strong>who</strong> you talk to. A mundane on the street will tell<br />
you that it means "someone <strong>who</strong>'s really into<br />
something," and probably means a sports team or a<br />
TV show. However, when we say "fan," we're really<br />
fan<br />
using a secret wink-wink geek code that means<br />
"person <strong>who</strong>'s into something that requires an<br />
general<br />
operational brain and some creativity," be it sci-fi,<br />
fantasy, roleplaying, <strong>com</strong>ics, etc. We're not just fans<br />
-- we're fans. And in our own aggressively<br />
antiestablishmentarianistic way we're pretty bloody<br />
arrogant about it, too. ;)<br />
fanac<br />
Short for "fan activity" -- attending cons, singing filk,<br />

writing fanfic, drawing fanart, etc.<br />
