[ SLANG ][ FANDOM ][ NOUN ]
A fan-created storyline treated as functionally official by a community, even without the original creator's sign-off, because enough people have agreed to build on it.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"The fandom's canon branch where the two leads actually talk to each other is honestly better written than the source."
LORE & ORIGIN
Adapts 'branch' from version control — fandoms now maintain divergent, community-agreed continuities the same way a codebase maintains parallel branches.
