Previous Entry  Add to memories!  Tell a Friend!  Next Entry
So, over in the Mary Sues community over at Livejournal, user [info]savageworlds posts a Sue for the Resident Evil fandom. (Entry is friendslocked, so check out the copy and paste job over in here.)

The original authors find out and are not pleased, posting backhanded compliments and puffing themselves up, both in the entry and in savageworlds' journal. She also posts in her own journal about it, presumably to gloat or something.

Not satisfied, [info]misscaptain decides to prove that fandom is SERIOUS BUSINESS and makes a post detailing how superior she is and why she can write Sues. Highlights include how brave and truthful she is for writing Sues and how there is no canon.

EDIT: Baleeted. But was rescued in the comments here.

Not too large, but [info]misscaptian's bloated language is wanky in and of itself.

<*lj user="ljusername"*> and the same but with comm instead of user (for communities), and of course all are without asterisks.

THAT’S the real reason why we are allowed to write Mary Sues, and the rest of you aren’t. Because we are not only honest about our repulsive personality traits and physical appearance, but we REVEL in it. Our Mary Sues NEVER get the boy in the end. They have NO special abilities or talents, aside from any that we have in real life. They are not who we wish we were, they are who we ARE. And we are so fucking proud of ourselves, we are SO completely happy with being US, flaws and all, that we can stick an honest version of ourselves into the Resident Evil universe, and utterly get away with it, because if nothing else, we have the confidence to carry it off, and to say to the world “This is us. We’re not perfect, but if you don’t like it, you can suck my rocket”.

So they're Useless!Sues? Cannonfodder!Sues? Obligatory-escort-mission!Sues?

GDS comes through again (1/2)
[info]sabinelagrande
2005-10-27 05:05 am UTC (link)
For those who missed it:

This may get me banned. But you all need to read this.

I speak as one half of the infamous Resident Evil Mary Sue duo that is Hello Captain and Shakahnna.

How did the dear and gentle readers here manage to utterly miss the fact that not only do we write numerous shameless, unrepentant, self indulgent Sues, and that in fact we find it nigh on impossible to write a story and NOT put ourselves in it, but that none of these fics has ever managed to grace the hallowed halls of fame here (which in itself is a travesty). Yet when we write a piece taking the piss out of OURSELVES (It's Not Big and It's Not Clever) for writing Sues, sporking ensues.

What you don’t seem to realise is that, yes, we are (justifiably) full of ourselves (because we are fantastic writers, we are witty, and we are utterly mesmerising), but that we also have a very realistic idea of our own “weaknesses”. That’s why we’re so popular. That’s why our latest endeavour is pushing the boundaries of Sue-dom.


For example. Shak’s self based character is a loud, overweight, delusional, classless, corrupt, mentally unstable policewoman with all the hygiene habits of a pig and a fixation with cutting off male genitalia, and my self insertion is an ugly, uptight, geeky, snobby, clumsy, cowardly hypocrite who instantly irritates everyone she meets and lets her pets die. Both are crass, arrogant, offensive and less attractive on a Friday night than a Pringles tube stuffed with liver.

It’s the age of the anti-hero, and we are the pioneers.

THAT’S the real reason why we are allowed to write Mary Sues, and the rest of you aren’t. Because we are not only honest about our repulsive personality traits and physical appearance, but we REVEL in it. Our Mary Sues NEVER get the boy in the end. They have NO special abilities or talents, aside from any that we have in real life. They are not who we wish we were, they are who we ARE. And we are so fucking proud of ourselves, we are SO completely happy with being US, flaws and all, that we can stick an honest version of ourselves into the Resident Evil universe, and utterly get away with it, because if nothing else, we have the confidence to carry it off, and to say to the world “This is us. We’re not perfect, but if you don’t like it, you can suck my rocket”.

I really just burst out laughing at that. In most cases "OMG my fic at the pit of voles got lots of reviews!11" ≠ good.

We are a call to arms for everyone who has ever been ashamed of who they are. For anyone who has never quite been able to fit the mould socially (and I don’t mean in the “Im difrent omg I cut miself Im a goth” way, I mean really). For anyone who has been made to feel inadequate over something they can’t help. For anyone who feels that they either can’t put themselves into a story, or that if they do, it has to be what they wish they were, rather than what they are. We stand up now, and we say that you don’t HAVE to be beautiful, popular, pretty, sexy, tough and renegade. That it’s more than ok to live like a disaster, and muddle through life rather than glide.

I can appreciate the sentiment as a way of living one's life, but as a justification for writing bad fanfic? Bitch, please.

Wow. Her "ugly girl manifesto" spiel on marysues has to be the first internet-thing I've found actually offensive in a long time.

Hello, yes, unattractive girl here. Who knows it's just as vain to write about oneself as oneself as it is to write about oneself as the image of perfection. And doesn't appreciate the implication that she needs to rise up against her Hollywood oppressors (and even moreso the bitches RUINING her precious fandom with their DENIAL DENIAL DENIAL CAN'T YOU SMELL THE DENIAL) in order to be a noble writer. Uh, no. Actually, nobility shouldn't really be the thing to strive for. Integrity, any? Strong workman's ethos? Knowing the value of craftsmanship?

Please stop these people from claiming to be the new wave. They're making fat girls like me, who just want to be professional, sort of upset.

I saw that, and I sat there for a full five minutes going O_o and trying to figure out whether this post was a parody, a troll, or the ramblings of someone who has gone completely the fuck out of her mind.

I think I eventually decided it was a little of all just before my brain exploded.

Honey, it's fanfic. Get over yourself. Also please to be getting the fuck out of my fandoms kbyenow.

Thank you, misscaptain! All this time I had no idea I was writing about canon characters because I felt repressed, not because I preferred to post something other people would be interested in to ff.net rather than crazy babblings only me and a few of my friends understood! Thank you, for helping me see the light and to embrace my inner Mary Sue! MARCH FORTH, MY SISTERS, LET US SPREAD OUR CRAZINESS THROUGHOUT THE LAND UNTIL WE ARE ALL UNITED AS ONE GIANT BALL OF-*blam*

Savageworlds fails at live because she hates Seymour with a violent passion.

That should be a crime in and of itself, I think.

~Doesn't even think she needs to identify herself; Ecchianzor will know who this is XD (Love the tree!)

I realize invoking her name these days is rather cliche but... damn. Even Anne Rice is would find these two a little inflated.

Wow! Do these girls study English? 'Cause they sure sound pretentious enough, and the whole 'No, no, our Mary Sues are socially relevant!' arguement REEKS.

(I study English myself, by the way)

Um, is this an edit? The post was originally unlocked, and it got locked after you wanked it, and you linked to the copy, right?

The two Suethors' schtick is... weird. They're trying to spoof Sues, but they don't go quite far enough. The huge egos are probably supposed to be part of the spoof, but they don't go quite far enough, either. There's too much defensiveness in some of their comments, and they're too obviously trying to annoy people who don't agree with their own assessment of their personas. It feels like they expected people to love and admire them, and when someone didn't go along with the script, they decided to crank the schtick up to prove that THEY'RE REALLY FUNNY NO REALLY SEE HOW FUNNY THEY'RE BEING?

In an unrelated point, they don't merely step on the funny lines in their fics, they drag them out to the curb and stomp a mudhole in their backs. They need to learn to back off and trust that the readers can figure out when something's funny. Show, don't tell, guys. It applies to humor as much as to anything else.

That's what they seem to want, after all.

The funniest thing about these two "anti-Sues" or whatever is, they seem to believe they invented the idea of daydreaming themselves into their favourite movie or TV show. Shit, I used to do that all the time when I was a kid and watching something I really liked. Of course, then I hit puberty and started thinking about, you know, BOYS.
It's like writing an essay called "HAY GUYZ I'M THE VANGUARD OF THIS EXCITING NEW LITERARY MOVEMENT CALLED 'STARING OUT THE WINDOW AND IMAGINING MY ENEMIES ARE ALL REALLY SORRY THEY EVER PICKED ON ME'!!!"

What you don’t seem to realise is that, yes, we are (justifiably) full of ourselves (because we are fantastic writers, we are witty, and we are utterly mesmerising), but that we also have a very realistic idea of our own “weaknesses”.

Yes, yes, I agree! I feel like that, too! :O

The world doesn't seem to realize that yes, I'm (justifiably) full of myself (because I'm beautiful, super-intelligent and the bestest writer in the world and David Wenham, will so want to marry me after he took only one look at me!), but I also have a very realistic idea of my own weaknesses (I always forget where I put my keys and I cannot cook). World, why are you so cruel? You pierce my pure heart with your ignorance and leave me to die a lonely death. My soul will haunt this realm forever (pining for David Wenham). :(

And go out and wear your heart on your sleeve, instead of hiding behind sarcasm and friends only posts.

Because fanfiction is a goddamn way of life.

I don't think writing about Mary Sues is a bad thing. Hey, if it's your thing, run with it.

Just don't expect everybody to jump for joy if you post it publicly.
