Will the real Gargoyle King please stand up?

PARASITE (2019) 

Summary: After taking theatre classes after school for months, Midge Klump is delighted to be cast, albeit by a technical default, as Carrie White in the Riverdale High production of Carrie: The Musical. On debut night, Midge is murdered in cold blood and a witch hunt ensues to find the killer and bring him to justice. Fangs Fogarty finds himself in the crosshairs of this witch hunt, which culminates in him being arrested and charged as Midge’s killer. 

Robin Allard, a public defender, is assigned to his case and together they fight the uphill battle to try and prove his innocence in court, finding skeletons in each other’s closets along the way. Robin may believe that Fangs is innocent, but will 12 jurors think the same? And will Fangs Fogarty be found guilty or not guilty of the murder of Midge Klump?

(Sidenote: don’t send shitty asks to any of the blogs tagged here, especially not bookclub where the people receiving these asks are likely the mods running the queue and not Morgan.)

I tried a few times to start this, because I wanted to be clear and concise, but honestly, the more I think about this situation, the more it pisses me off. I know a lot of people won’t believe me despite the screenshots I’m about to show, and that’s their prerogative. People are going to continue to support Morgan and the bookclub after this, and Morgan will probably come out with some long post where she talks in circles and blames her mental health and/or me for the situation.

The only other things I’ll say to preface this post is that: I don’t have any issues with anyone in the bnhabookclub (admins, mods, etc) aside from Morgan, and I don’t want anon messages sent in my name, especially ones that are hateful in nature. You can disagree with someone without harassing them.

It’s been almost three months since most of what I talk about in this post occurred, but that doesn’t mean I’ve stopped being upset about what happened. And, in a way, I feel like my hands are tied. The bnhabookclub being “stolen” and “copied” has been brought up on the @gallickingunexposed​ blog. Since the only way people know that is from hearing it from me or someone I told, I figured I might as well come out and say it:

Morgan copied the @bnhabookclub​ from @southsidearchive​, a blog/server combo which Morgan was an active participant in.

Now, I could continue to keep my mouth shut and try to move on from the subject. I could leave and find a new fandom to join (which I was going to do with hq until Morgan also joined that fandom). At the end of the day, neither of those options brings me closure on the subject. It also shows no consequences for bad behavior. I’ve heard a few people talk about Morgan stealing fic ideas or outright plagiarizing content, and while I can neither confirm nor deny those accusations (for obvious reasons), I do have proof of 1) how similar the bookclub and archive are, and 2) Morgan talking shit about me before and after I gained entrance to the bookclub server.

The only reason I’m posting this now, aside from closure for myself, is that I can’t in good conscience ignore this incident if there’s the possibility of Morgan doing the same thing to other people. Plagiarism isn’t okay. I’ve dealt with fic plagiarism in other fandoms. From experience, I know how damaging that can be to a writer.

To avoid forcing people to view a massive post, all of my screenshots are below the cut. These screenshots include proof of Morgan in the archive, comparison pictures of the bookclub and archive, and screenshots that were sent to me that lead me to believe that the copying of the archive was done with malicious intent.

Morgan (@lilhemmo/@gallickingun) copied much of the Southside Archive word for word to create her own server, @bnhabookclub.

Alisha’s excellent post above includes screenshots of the plagiarism as well as screenshots of Morgan’s attempt to blacklist her from the BNHA fandom before even joining. It’s well worth the read.

For more info on what else Morgan has stolen, feel free to check out the blog @gallickingunsteals for a thorough outline of stolen gifs, art, and other server components such as bots.

Why is it sus? Because Morgan copied another blog? Regardless of whether the actual blog has posted anything, regardless of who owns the blog Morgan copy and pasted every single part of book club from that blog and tumblr. Copy and paste. No attempt to change it up a lil with her own words, not even an extra smiley face or a heart. No change

Please, explain to me how it’s “sus” that I’m the only one that’s posted anything about it? The archive is no longer active, Morgan isn’t involved in the Riverdale fandom anymore on her lilhemmo account, and (aside from @southsidewrites​) none of the other mods are part of the BNHA fandom. Them posting statements about the situation doesn’t achieve anything when no one directly involved in the situation is going to see it.

I’m the only archive mod that was in the bnhabookclub server and I’m the one that initially contacted the bookclub admins about my concerns. It made complete sense for me to compile everything into one post. We shouldn’t all have to come out and say that we’re pissed and think plagiarism is wrong.

What is your point here, anon? Because I’m not sure what you want from me, or any of the other mods. Do we need to scream on our blogs about the situation 24/7 to prove the legitimacy of our accusations? I’m sure if i’d done that someone would just bitch about me doing it for attention. 

As a reminder, I brought the plagiarism up to admin Nikki back in May. I tried to handle this privately once, I wasn’t going to do that again. Please, tell me how my actions are more “sus” than Morgan’s, when she’s had a week to publicly acknowledge the situation, and hasn’t. Actually, she’s had three months to apologize and change the copy/pasted sections of the bookclub blog and server, but, semantics, right?

You want some mod statements? Fine. Here you go!

A belated birthday gif for @sweetfogarty based on her alternate S2 fic exploring the relationship between Fangs and Midge, and the trial that results from her murder, In the Pursuit of Justice.

Soph has made me absolutely adore fidge with her fic and I just had to make something for it! The first four quotes are from the fic, the last two just felt appropriate to add.
