fanfic that gets character description wrong for something that is a visual media and you can fucking SEE WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE drives me off the wall. it's not a dealbreaker or anything but every time shit like dean winchester being described as blonde, ripped and tanned* or w/e, i want to ask the writer if they've actually seen whatever it is they're writing fic for.

*editing to add that that's frequently done in contrast to in dean/cas fics where castiel is always slim, pale, and dark haired and is always the ~bottom~ so he gets feminized and i just get yicky feelings whenever i see it.

Oh my god THIS. I constantly see fanart that has my favorite character drawn with the wrong eye color, which makes absolutely no sense when there are MULTIPLE close-up shots of his face in canon where you can see his eye color very clearly.

Is it really that difficult to double-check the source?

dean winchester being described as blonde

We're going to have to agree to disagree on that one, because the whole brunette/blond debate really varies according to location and has actually caused problems for people describing suspects in police matters. Some people define "blond" as "anything lighter than very dark brown/black."

I personally look up official descriptions before I write fanfiction, but it doesn't surprise me at all when people have different perceptions of color than I do, especially when it comes to hair.

okay, yeah that's true. there are a fair number of artists who draw him with yellow hair though, some east asian and some not, so that probably factors into that too.
