ADour, you keep saying there's context, but there simply isn't. All there is is a reference to the arcane, a seasonal setting, and the narrator is named Victor. On its own, this is great, but the author provides nowhere near enough context for the reader to infer that narrator is a young Doctor Doom. This is not a question of whether or not the reader is "nitpicky", it's that the author does not provide enough detail. What is the spell? what was its purpose? who cast it? Who or what is chasing Victor and his father? Any of those small details could provide more context to cue the reader in on the narrator's identity, but as it is this is just a story about a boy and his father running away from demons in the snow. A very well written story about a boy and his father running away from demons in the snow, mind you, but not one necessarily about Doctor Doom.

Spencerz, you have that backwards. It's not an interpretation to fit an argument, but an argument based on an interpretation. Nathan doesn't mention blogs in particular, but he shouldn't need because he does say that "all fanon" should be directed to the fanon wiki. That "all" means "all" is not that wild an interpretation. Why are blogs not considered part of the wiki?

Although, if I did want to speculate, I would wonder why he would say all fanon should be directed to the fanon wiki and not to users' blogs if he didn't consider those blogs part of the wiki. The ruling was against creating a space on this wiki for fanon.
