Metafiction was a concept that described characters and objects that went beyond fictional bounds. Things that were metafictional could also be referred to as meta, including meta-worlds.
Universes in the 10,000 Dawns were usually more partial to metafictional activity, though varied in terms of how metafictional they were. Some characteristics of metafictional Dawns included them being genre-based, black-and-white, the skipping of plot beats to get to a climax, and characters' awareness of themselves as characters. Notably, 10,000 Dawns were not referred to as 'the' 10,000 dawns "for meta reasons". (PROSE: Taste the Noodles of Dracula [+]Loading...["Taste the Noodles of Dracula (short story)"])
In what she later described as a "metafictional situation" set up by Auteur, Graelyn Scythes was deaged into a baby and grew up all over again before she got her memories back. (PROSE: Taste the Noodles of Dracula [+]Loading...["Taste the Noodles of Dracula (short story)"])
Ostara called the Interdimensional Copyright Office "metafictional freaks" when the Mad Hatter warned them about referencing a version of Alice in Wonderland they didn't have the rights to. The March Hare returned the insult to Ostara, who was the story's author. (PROSE: Tea Time!! Noodles!! [+]Loading...["Tea Time!! Noodles!! (short story)"])
Graelyn Scythes theorised that the Noodle Man was a "metafictional thing", stating that she and Archimedes Von Ahnerabe had "done metafictional stuff before" and that she had "metafictional stuff in [her] family tree." She noted that he didn't think the Dawn she was in was "that metafictional", noting that Count Dracula had not known that she was a character. Shona Daniels echoed this theory, stating that the Noodle Man "stole [their] gimmick" from when they rampaged through the 10,000 Dawns to make a name for themselves, "only with the metafiction levels turned, like, way up." Archimedes Von Ahnerabe called him a "metafictional cuckoo". (PROSE: Taste the Noodles of Dracula [+]Loading...["Taste the Noodles of Dracula (short story)"])
