i dont care about mischaracterisation in fanworks. in truth, no character can truly be correctly characterised unless written/drawn by the creator themself. some people get so hung up on characterisation that they dont even let themselves enjoy the content in front of them.
in my experience in 15 years of fandom, when a ship is too canon & too perfect, there’s very little impetus for ppl to write for it. when a ship is absolutely doomed af, it spawns an unbelievable amount of desperate fix-it fics from fans trying to patch the hole in their heart.
harassment over fiction is crazy.
imagine you’re playing with dolls.
u make them kiss, fight, betray each other, whatever story u want.
and someone runs up, rips the doll out of ur hands, and hits YOU because the doll got hurt.
fictional character don't have rights, people do.
