FORCE: Gen Z BrainrotUNIVERSE: BrainrotCLUSTER: storytelling

A sudden, rapid expansion of a fandom's lore across many creators at once, distinct from a lore collision by being an additive burst of new material rather than two storylines clashing.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"There was a full lore bloom overnight, a dozen different theories dropped within an hour of that one throwaway line."

LORE & ORIGIN

Borrows 'bloom' from the same rapid-growth imagery used elsewhere (algal bloom, viral bloom), applied to lore output spiking all at once.
