Nominations Queries 4

Getting closer...

Alice in Borderland (TV and Manga)
Nominator, could you expand a little on why this should be both TV and manga, in contrast to the canonical tags? I'm unfamiliar with this canon.

Almost Human (TV)
Group: MX-43 Character/Richard Paul (Almost Human)
Does this mean any existing MX-43 character, or an original one?

Beatles (Band)
Group: Linda McCartney/Paul McCartney & children (Beatles)
This tag was approved by mistake - sorry about that, nominator. I will change this to Linda/Paul & Stella & Mary unless you'd like another tag or you think another of the relevant children qualifies as a celebrity. I do not wish to approve RPF characters who are not famous in their own right.

Crossover Fandom
Group: Esme Cullen (Twilight)/Narcissa Malfoy (HP)
Group: Jareth (Labyrinth)/Tristan Thorn (Stardust)
Group: Kit Snicket (ASOUE)/Madeleine (Gunpowder Milkshake)
Group: Mike Jackson/Rupert Psmith (Wodehouse) & Aziraphale/Crowley (Good Omens)
Lance Tucker (The Bronze)/Sam Wilson (Marvel)
Other: Worldbuilding (Howl's Moving Castle) & (Labyrinth)
Other: Worldbuilding (Howl's Moving Castle) & (Spirited Away)
Other: Worldbuilding (Howl's Moving Castle) & (The Witcher TV)
Nominators, please narrow down which canons/adaptations/universes are meant for Good Omens, Howl's Moving Castle, Marvel, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Stardust, and Twilight. If I don't hear otherwise I'll assume HP can be changed to HP-JKR.

Homestuck 1, Homestuck 2
I'm a bit out of my depth here, sorry. What does Homestuck 2 refer to, specifically? Is that the canon also formatted as Homestuck^2? Is Homestuck 1 the original Homestuck, or everything that isn't Homestuck^2? Help please.

Iron Man Noir
Group: Steve Rogers/Tony Stark (Noir)
Help me out here please - Steve Rogers doesn't seem to appear in Iron Man Noir. Should this be a crossover nomination?

Journey (Video Game 2012)
I'm having some trouble with the character names - advice appreciated. Who is the Precursor? Are the nominated White Cloak and Red Cloak characters specific characters or original characters (especially in regards to Red Cloak/Red Cloak)?

Original Work
Group: Confused Orc/Man Who Accidentally Seduced Him By Rolling 1 On Attack Then Went With It (OW)
Uh, should this go under Forgotten Realms?

Paintings - James Christensen
Please be more specific. Is there a name for a series of this artist's works?

Twilight Series - All Media Types
Jasper Hale
Bella Swan
Would you like this to go under the movies or under Meyer's books?

I'm the Journey nominator! I used the term "Precursor" because I was having a brainfart. This is probably fine (because everyone in the fandom will know what it means) but changing it to the more standard Ancestor or Guardian would also be fine.

Regarding whether these are original or canonical character tags, red cloaks and white cloaks are like Among Us characters: they're unique but fungible and have canonical experiences (essentially the same for each) but not personalities nor really names. "Red Cloak/Red Cloak" and "Original Red Cloak/Original Red Cloak" are basically synonyms, so I nominated in the format that resembled Among Us' nominations.

(Also, sorry about inexplicably leaving out Group: on these nominations, Modzilla. My Journey brainfart was weirdly comprehensive.)

That makes sense to me, thanks! So a red cloak or a white cloak in the tags could equally be the player character, or another world-dweller of the same kind.

Yeah, exactly. I think the key thing is that someone making narrative fanwork featuring interiority or dialogue or backstory for an "original" red cloak vs. a "canonical" red cloak will have to do basically exactly the same amount of pure invention.
