It’s a common argument that things people actually like get less fic. It’s argued that people just enjoy the stuff they like, whereas they write fix-fic for the stuff that frustrates them. I’ve never compared numbers to see if this is accurate. (If it’s the case, then why are there so many Tolkien fanfics?)

This is absolutely true for me. When I really love a piece of media and am satisfied with it, I have zero interest in reading or writing fic for it because there's nothing it left me wanting. Fic is for the cases where there was something I wanted out of canon that it didn't give me.

Like, I love Nirvana in Fire to death. I have no interest in looking for fic for it because it wrapped up SO well that I was 100% happy with all of the individual character arcs and the larger plot as a whole.

Given the amount of canon het fic that exists I don’t think this is true, I think there’s plenty of both types of fans. Fans that love something will add scenarios to a canon they like and disappointed fans will fix something they didn’t like and in my experience the number of fans doing either seems pretty equal.

And as someone who is currently reading through a whole bunch of ‘everyone lives AU’ in Tolkien/Hobbit fandom I’m not doing so because I hate the canon or was disappointed that the heirs of Durin died, I just want to self-indulgently roll around in an AU where they didn’t. I can enjoy and like canon and have fun with an AU, these two things are not mutually exclusive.
