Okay, but what I want to know is; what is the fandom culture like in the world of The Boys?

Are there people writing The Seven and Vought fanfic on Ao3 or a similar website? People talking about how The Seven are IRL found family, because they can’t see how much the supes fucking hate each other? Are people having to make apology posts for writing Stormfront fics after the news that she’s a nazi breaks? Angsty fics when the world finds out that heros are made, not born?

How much of the fics are self-insert of the author and their favorite supe? Is there a 500k+ college AU Homelander/reader fic that later gets turned into a book deal and then a movie, After style? How many people are making sad posts because their favorite C-list supe only has 50 fanfics about them and they’ve already read them all?

Is there shipping wars? Queen Maeve/Homelander vs. Homelander/The Deep? Fandom scandals? Did someone con millions out of fans with a fake The Seven dating sim? On April 1st, the Black Noirpocalypse?

Hughie was very publicly Starlight’s boyfriend for a little bit, as far as the fans know - is there fanfic of him out there? Does he have a little dedicated fan base? Better yet - we know Hughie was a The Seven fan before A-Train killed Robin (look at his room when he destroys it), did he read or write fanfic?

my head hurts but in a meta way i bet the in-universe equivalent of dashcon didn't end well at all - did vought have to cover up the death toll? imagine the fanwank every time the lineup of the seven changes and then the other wank - the subwank? - about the romantic interest plotlines in the supe movies vs IRL vs non-canon-canonical 'ships and which are more 'valid' or 'problematic' does vought drop cease & desist letters on fanworks that don't serve their narrative? or just feed the beast and rake in profit behind the scenes? the boys! the boys meta
