So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Didn't some of those places actually appear on the show?

Well, that was more Velvet Goldmine Benton.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Question: Can something be described as "both canon and fanon"?

Seems to me like one kind of trumps the other.

I wouldn't think so. Cause unless I'm wrong(which sometimes happens) fanon can only spring up about something if the canon is unclear, like: CANON: Kay Howard and Ed Danvers break up. FANON: Lots of "Ed cheats on Kay," stories spring up because the show doesn't say much about why. Right?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Um, not logically. If you define canon to mean "stff that happens on the show" and fanon to be "made up stuff that magically people seem to agree on". Now, I guess they could be defining fanon as "stuff that repeatedly shows up in fanfics, whether on the show or not"-- but that isn't what I think of as fanon.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

It could be 'both canon and fanon' if something was initially fanon and then later canon explicitly went there, maybe?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

See, I would consider that "fanon that was confirmed by canon" or something like that. I don't think something can co-exist simultaneously in both canon and fanon. Once it's canon, it's no longer fanon.
