Definition

FABCOM2 is a level 2 Special Score for fabulized relations that are clearly more severe and more implausible than FABCOM1.
It is used when the organization of the response is distorted by a very improbable relation among its elements.

Conditions

Use FABCOM2 when the relation among elements is markedly illogical, highly forced, or difficult to sustain as only a mild deviation.
The main problem should lie in the fabulized connection of the response, not merely in a strange word or an isolated incongruous mixture.
FABCOM2 is reserved for the more severe version of this relational distortion.
Its presence often foreshadows a later link with Lv2 and the weight of WSum6.

Cautions

If the main oddity lies inside a single perceptual combination, compare it with INCOM2 first.
If the response fuses incompatible percepts into one contaminated perception, review CONTAM.
If the distortion is present but does not reach this level of severity, use FABCOM1.
FABCOM2 is not assigned just for broad fantasy or poetic style; it requires a clearly fabulized relation.
