Just because fandom has created some headcanon for a character, doesn't mean the creator wasted potential by not going with fandom portrayals.

That's true, but I can't help but feel that there was still wasted potential with Tonks - they didn't need to have her be a punk but they should have done something more.

If nothing else, it's bullshit that she died. Garbage-ass bullshit.

The secret doesn't suggest that all headcanons are better than canon, but there's a good argument for this one.

IA. Fandom clings to headcanons and refuses to acknowledge anything else could be good.

That being said, Tonks wasn't a great character, but that can be said about many HP characters. She isn't worse than others, imo, just an unimportant character who we never got to really know.

this.

and obv op should enjoy the headcanons they enjoy, but "character is now a cursing, one-liner spouting badass cliché" isn't really the interpretation i'd go for if i wanted to make more use of tonks as a character.

But they should have gone for something
