Have you ever taken a minor/one-off character and made them yours?

Not sure how to word that lmao but! Have you ever seen a minor, perhaps even unnamed, one-off character in a thing and just loved them so much you basically made them a psuedo-OC? Not fully original obviously but expanding upon what little personality you may have seen and the what not?

For me I've "taken" two one-off characters from the anime Bungou Stray Dogs, specifically Sakura, the orphan girl Oda Sakunosuke was taking care of, who I gave a retcon of how she may have survived and then grown up, so my version of her she is 18 instead of 4 now, and Karma, a one-off mafia member who was killed by the current arc's big bad, who I also retconned his death and created a story where he ends up joining the big bad's side.

Has anyone else ever done this, or am I just weird?

I think I've thought about certain side characters, but I've never done anything/bring them into the narrative like that. But I think it's cool! Side characters deserve love too!

I sometimes wonder about certain side characters -- because even if they are a tiny piece in a greater narrative, they have their own story too, we're just not being told it/focusing on it. In the very same way we are the side characters in other peoples' lives. So I think it's cool and sweet that you do this :)

Some of my favorite characters were supporting or side characters, but I would make up headcanons to expand on their backstories and have them go on adventures in various aus. So yes, been there, done that.

I do this too! I love expanding on small details from canon!
