Is there a term for when two versions of the same character are shipped in fandom? Not talking about Screw Yourself which is about canon instances of such a trope, but the fanon variant, usually between characters as portrayed by different actors or after a large personality shift. The most infamous example would be Oncest from The Lorax but it's still a case in some other fandoms.
