| 2 | * AdaptationDisplacement: Far more people are familiar with the term "Mary Sue" than the story it originally came from. |
| 3 | * ParodyDisplacement: People who ''do'' know about this story usually don't know that it's a parody of a common FandomSpecificPlot in Trekdom during the early '70s: a beautiful young woman (read: a stand-in for the author) joins the crew of the ''Enterprise'' and impresses everyone with her abilities before dying a tragic death to be mourned by all. Of course, this plotline is rarely used in the modern Trekdom, and the meaning of the term "Mary Sue" has long since been expanded to refer to any idealized AuthorAvatar in any fandom. |
