The forms of cultural consumption, since the initial popularization to the digital age, unfold in various ways. In current days, these forms of consumption have diversified immensely, turning to a challenge to the understanding, for not only the settings and ways in which various media converge, but mainly how its influence on the culture and current production methods. Established in recent decades, the fan culture is one of the contemporary forms of consumption. It brings together people interested in the same cultural products that promote them, sharing their impressions, theories, expectations and frustrations, in regular meetings or on websites and social networks online. This type of consumption has brought up series of questions about the cultural market, from the moment these individuals begin to produce their own products based on the matrices narratives, of which they are fans, deconstructing and reworking prevailing unilateral relationships of cultural production. Among these productions are the fanfiction. They are creative writing practices, immersed in a pre-existing universe (fictional), in which their authors perform interventions of various kinds, filling gaps, inverting events or creating new ones, may or may not occur additions and subtractions in this universe. This research aims to analyze the dialogical relationships present in this discursive gender and in particular the movements of carnivalization in fanfiction Un, Deux, Trois, written by MB Writer, available online at Nyah!Fanfiction, based on the fictional universe of Harry Potter.
