Adding a random lyric to a picture, then adding an ugly filter does not deepen the understanding of that character

I feel like it's not about forging a deeper understanding for most people. People just like to apply poetic words they find beautiful to characters/ships they love. It's a pretty common human impulse, I think. People do it all the time with real people we're in love with: listen to a song and think of them, read a poem and think of them, a line in a book and we're reminded of them.

Adding text to a fannish image just gives us another way to connect with characters we have feelings about - first in a general way (visually), while also provoking in us a specific way of thinking about and feeling about the characters (through whatever idea the text is linking to them).

It can be badly done, but it can also be done beautifully.
