leethetDay 07 – Have you ever had a fic change your opinion of a character?
A fic I wrote or a fic I read? When I write I’m inevitably adding my own interpretation to the canon character; that always makes me like them more than I did before (even if I already really liked them). When reading … I’ve read fic that temporarily makes me see characters differently – good writing can do that. Generally I go back to my own viewpoint after, though – my viewpoint is stronger when I’ve written the character than it is when I’ve just read them in canon.
