mainstream maintext manga Mary Sue MCS ME mediafan years. Some lists tolerate lurkers; others strongly discourage or even ban them to assure that all members "pull their weight" by participating. Please note: most fanfic writers do not like lurkers. If you enjoy a story, send feedback! M The one-and-only original unaltered canon version of a character. Any canon romantic or sexual relationship between characters which occurs as the writer intended and without need for interpretation. The opposite of subtext. Japanese comic books. Manga (pronounced "MAWN-guh," with a hard "G" as in "gum") makes up forty percent of all publications in Japan and is aimed specifically at men and women as well as at teens. See anime for the animated side of the industry. The generic name for any new character (usually female) who's a ego-stroke for the writer: she's beautiful, has amazing skills/powers, gets into a love affair with an existing character, or (usually) all of the above. Mary Sues often convince characters to hook up romantically, especially in slash. Good writers can write good Mary Sues, but this is not the norm. See fangirl and avatar for other variations, or go here for a full explanation. Middle Chapter Syndrome -- a disorder which causes writers (mainly of trilogies and longer epics) to write a substandard work in order to get the characters from one heavily plotted section to the next. Abbreviation for Mutant Enemy, production company responsible for Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Firefly. A fan whose main focus of fascination is popular media, ie. a particular TV show or movie. A slightly demeaning term used primarily by snobby oldtimers who still think that fandom should be restricted to arguing the mechanics of so-called classic sci-fi and cranking out mimeo'd zines, if you ask me. Subreality Xena anime/mang a Star Trek Xena Buffy/Angel old fandom megacrossov A crossover involving characters from several anime/mang er different works -- at least four or five. a A word of "warning" politely added to the subject line of a post or e-mail to indicate that the message comics, meta or META contained therein is ABOUT fanfic or the people others who write it, but isn't actually a piece of fanfic itself. A self-referential story which "breaks the fourth wall" by acknowledging that the characters are not metafic, metafiction real -- and, often, that they know it. Can be enjoyed Subreality, in non-fanfic work like "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" others and John Byrne's "She-Hulk" -- often used to humorous effect in fanfic by forcing the writer to 174
meta-MST MEverse MFEO, M.F.E.O. mirror M/M, m/m face his/her irate fictives. See also Subreality. PS: Here's proof that I didn't invent the term, as some have accused... A MSTing of a MSTing. It happens. These tend to MST3K be petty revenge from an abused author. Non-series-specific term for the fictional universe in which Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel take Buffy/Angel place. See ME for explanation. Made For Each Other, Meant For Each Other. Refers to two characters who "ought" to be a X-Files couple, and thus a popular rallying cry for 'shippers. A tale concerning a set of events already covered in another story...only this time they're being retold or unknown experienced by a different character than in the first version. denotes a story involving a romantic or sexual relationship between two male characters. In mainstream porn "M" usually indicates an adult man while "m" indicates one who's underage -- ie. M/M would describe an encounter between two adult men while M/m would be a liaison between an general adult man and a teenage boy, and so on. However, this distinction is not well-known in fanfic and cannot be used as an accurate guide to content. For full details on same-sex themes in fanfic, see slash. Mod, mod Short for moderator. general moderator A person who has full or partial control over posts to a moderated newsgroup, mailing list, or other forum. Some moderators have complete control, okaying or denying each message; others merely have the authority to delete rules-breaking posts and negotiate arguments. See also listmom and listdomme. general mook mook, mooks mooky No relation to the original gangster slang-word for "tough guy" -- "mook" (or "mooky") describes close loving relationships that are Just Plain Cuuuute. The characters involved in said relationships are called "mooks." Mook stories may or may not involve actual sex, and often don't -- the only criteria is that the characters involved be sweet, romantic, and totally in love. As one expert put it, "Angst is allowed, but tragic or otherwise dark stories are not mook." Note: Mook in comic fic is often (yes, yes, not always) associated with slash. Characters involved in a mooky relationship. The originals were Kaylee's "Gem Twins," Jack & Zach. When fans refer to "the mooks," however, they are generally referring to some other currently popular duo -- if you aren't up on the latest gossip in the world of mookiness, you'd have to ask to find out. comics comics The state/action of being cute-romantic-awww towards a love interest, especially (but not always) comics 175
