Out of respect for the discord, I'm gonna say this here, because I was watching the eclipse and killing my car during the discussion.

Fanon =/= Headcanon, and it's not the same as a singular fan's headcanon that isn't supported by canon

Fanon is essentially a reading, interpretation, or headcanon that spreads widely in a fandom and gets adopted as a popularly accepted "fandom canon." Such as Sheriff Stilinski's first name being John before the show named him something completely incorrect.

Headcanon is personal to each individual's preferred reading of the show, based on canon or not. A canon that exists in one person's head.

The reason fanon tends to have a pejorative tone in fandom is because some fans are prone to attacking others for not accepting a common fanon, or the readings of "subtext" that led to it, as canon. And they insist that the way THEY read canon is the ONLY possible reading of canon.

And, personally, I think it's important to distinguish my headcanon of bi!dean (and aro!dean) apart from the fanon (dare i say, qfanon) of the hellers' bi!dean. The particular distinguishment being that I understand that wasn't the intent of canon, and there was no hidden bi agenda that got snuffed.

Having some of the same bi!dean subtext notes isn't the problem. It's when someone insists that was the intent. It's the unironic "there is no heterosexual reason for this" of it all. I know we're all queer shipping around here and all, but that doesn't exclude a certain whiff of homophobia and gender binary shit to the insistence that straight guys can't do [thing].

Just because you read Dean's look at Dr Sexy as queer, doesn't mean that's what it was. TPTB have said this themselves. And just because [a character from the book the vibes of spn was based on] was intended as bi doesn't mean Dean was intended to be bi. You can read that subtext into your headcanon, but that doesn't make it canon overall. Not even if it becomes fanon.

So when someone insists that's what it WAS not what they HEADCANON it was, it starts to make those of us scarred by heller qfanon very wary.

That said. We need to stop conflating fanon and headcanon so we can each enjoy our individual readings and share in the love of the show.

Yamagi and Shino from Gundam IBO (it's not obvious on this pic though cause we're doing post-canon revisionism babeyyy). Just a moody little thing. Read Wishing on Space Hardware, it'll make sense ;)

Hey

Passed by and I saw your au.

I'm curious, what is it about exactly? I've found it interesting so far. -(sure tell me if you feel like it, don't want to bother you-)

helloo !! not bothering at all !! i love getting questionz related to the au !! ¥_^

small headz up – im very bad at explaining and wording my sentencez . so im terribly sorry if they make little to no sense / aren't coherent

uhm . if i had to explain the au in general . it would kinda be a project sekai × dhmis crossover – while the main plot doez revolve around band and muzic stuff . the meat and potatoez of thiz au are mostly the characterz . their lore . how they interact with one another and how they evolve

the main fic [currently in the workz] iz pretty much my starting point . where the muzic and band stuff iz gonna be the most relevant . and im planning to make shorter workz in addition to explore the characterz further after i get done with that [like the project sekai eventz]

thiz iz just a dumb self-indulgent project honestly . and itz definitely not for everyone . but im glad you stopped by to inquire more !! im sorry if my explanation didn't answer your question very well . but i tried my best to give you my pitch for the story ahaha
