Re: What kind of meta do you like?

[(Anonymous)]

I like well-documented meta where a person goes through canon and makes a detailed account of things to support their head-canons. I would add, though, that these details cannot be tin-hat types of evidence. I want to see someone who has a fairly reasonable understanding of canon and acknowledges the points of canon they are changing/overlooking for personal preference.

Meta also has to be fairly neutral in tone for me. Like, I like enthusiasm but I don't want to be preached at. I want to feel like I could discuss with this person any points of difference I have and feel like this person would fairly evaluate my position. They don't have to change their minds but I like it better when someone makes it clear that they understand the shades of difference between canon, plausible canon, wish fulfillment, subjective reading, etc. and can engage thoughtfully in discussion.

Coming from a fandom (for a noncanon otp) where every scene is retconned to 'they're so in love', I have to say your idea of meta intrigues me but sounds as rare as unicorns.

Re: What kind of meta do you like?

I come from Tolkien and other book fandoms where there's a scholarly presence. Not to say all the meta is this way but I have seen a good amount of meta where people quote obscure HoME passages and Tolkien's letters to make a point but are still okay if people disagree. I absolutely love when people do that. I think it's because Tolkien has contradictory stuff in his writing to begin with so everyone picks and chooses a little bit anyway. I have seen a few of these unicorn metas in other media fandoms (movies and TV) but I think a lot of that was back in the LJ days.
