A genre created by Alicia McKenzie in which the<br />

culmination <strong>of</strong> the X-Men's "Twelve" plotline<br />

resulted not in Cyclops' death but in a shattering <strong>of</strong><br />

the walls between realities, resulting in a deadly<br />

patchwork multiverse where anything can happen<br />

as the shards <strong>of</strong> possibilities drift randomly. Mainly<br />

a <strong>com</strong>ic-book genre but by its very nature is<br />

expanding into others, ie. Buffy and X-Files.<br />

Short for "relationship" -- uses to denote which pair<br />

<strong>of</strong> characters are romantically involved in a given<br />

story. See 'shipping for more details.<br />

short for "relationshipping" -- a 'shipper is someone<br />

<strong>who</strong> believes that a chosen pair <strong>of</strong> characters<br />

"belong together," and <strong>who</strong> diligently reads and/or<br />

writes tales to that effect. The term originated in the<br />

X-Files fanfic, but has migrated over to <strong>com</strong>icfic in<br />

full force with the advent <strong>of</strong> the X-Men movie and a<br />

subsequent boom in Logan/Rogue 'shipping.<br />

See shotacon<br />

which is generally considered sweeter, less<br />

graphic, and more acceptable. Sometimes spelled<br />

"shotakon" in correct Romanization, or abbreviated<br />
