Sure, I get the feeling but...why be surprised that people who are unhappy with the way canon went would be more likely to reinterpret it?

If each ship has 1000 fans who are potential authors, a canon couple might have 20% of those fans who are perfectly content with how it is in canon and thus don't write fic. Whereas the same obviously isn't true for noncanon shippers.

Now, this doesn't apply to you personally, but I've seen some canon shippers that are kind of...hostile to the fact that a noncanon ship is more popular in fic which just...doesn't seem logical to me. I'd think people who aren't getting what they want out of canon are going to be more inclined to write fic.

You seem to be upset you are not getting the answer you want. Sorry about that, but that is how it goes. People like their fanfic to be like their canon sometimes.

It's not so much that it's upsetting as it is puzzling.

Like, I get wanting more fic. But I guess what I find odd is when people seem to expect that a canon couple would have more fic in comparison to a noncanon one. That's where it leaves me at a loss. Because I've seen some people get really angry about this, almost as though it's a slight against the canon pairing when I see it more as a simple extension of the fact that nonsatisfied viewers or readers are more likely to write fic in the first place. And hence have more fics featuring a noncanon pair.

da

The same reason why people who prefer shipping non-canon will come into a fandom that primarily ships in line with canon and start fussing over the absence of the sort of fic they expect: the vast majority of fans expect their fandoms to engage with the source material the same way they themselves do.
