The accidental bias developed after discussing something with a fictive about their source that may differ from the actual media. While fictives are not the characters from their source, they may still have attachment to that media and memories and opinions about it. Sharing these thoughts and feelings with others could result in a bias toward or against someone or something due to information only that fictive would have, making it unexplainable to fandom-goers.
