What is a trope? A sort of story-telling shorthand, plot set-up, or device. I.e., the damsel in distress and the chosen one as character tropes; coffeeshop AU and friends-to-lovers as plot tropes. What is "Canon"? The events and facts that actually happen in a story -- the book text, or the scenes and dialogue actually shown on screen. What is "Fanon"? Ideas and explanations largely accepted by the fandom at large, but which have no true basis in the text. What is a "headcanon"? An individual fan's personal interpretation of a character or scene that doesn't have a strong basis in the text. I.e., "I headcanon that Sirius had a crush on Lily" or "I headcanon that John Murphy has dyslexia." What is "Shipping"? When a viewer/reader supports the romantic relationship -- actual, implied, or non-canon -- between characters. I.e., "I ship Jon and Sansa from A Song of Ice and Fire" or "I shipped Han and Leia."
