I don't think that puts us at an impasse! I can understand how someone would prefer canon characterization. I'm not saying that canon characterization is bad. I just don't understand how it's intrinsically valuable.

[(Anonymous)]

Because...that's what I'm in the fandom for? That's why I'm reading fic? Because I like those specific characters and the way they are in canon and I want more of them, specifically, not a cookie cutter with their names slapped on.

I get why you like it

I don't get why it's yikes and sad if someone else doesn't

[(Anonymous)]

Because then why are you even a fan?

I mean, if you wanna have fun, go for it. But to represent and interpret material you haven't personally experienced for yourself is a little weird, and as you've found out, you can't rely solely on other people's interpretations.

I want to be clear that I am not the anon who started this thread and I am sure their reasons are much better and more cogent than anything I have to say about it

this is what frustrates me so much about a lot of fic these days, people are just defaulting to some fandom cookie cutter dynamic and i dislike it so much. i'm not here for OC's with the same names, i want the characters to actually act like themselves.

If people want to write original fiction they should just do it, not paste their crappy OC's over existing characters. Honestly, I don't see how people don't get that, like what's the actual reason to write/read fanfiction if you don't care about what/who you're writing about...

There really is a huge difference between 'based on' and 'inspired by'.
