and if i said fandom on tumblr has become so obsessed with having the Most Correct understanding of a character that it’s honestly sucking the fun out of everything !!! like i get that it’s annoying when All of the fanon content about a character is wildly ooc, but some fanbases are so wide and populated that there’s no way you can’t find accurate depictions of the characters. there’s always going to be headcanons or ships or interpretations that don’t seem quite right to you, but whatttt is the point of constantly complaining about it when you could instead just focus on the content you DO like and feel is accurate. why are you spending so much time getting mad that other people aren’t playing dolls right. it doesn’t matter dude

#this is directed at no specific instance in particular just a general trend of seeing steve content especially constantly nitpicked #and put under a microscope because no one can agree on what seems canonically accurate #steve is given such little opportunity in the show to actually react to things and have emotional moments #so when people naturally write those scenes for him and there’s no canon comparison everyone’s interpretation will be slightly different #and that’s the FUN of writing fic #but both on here and st twit i just constantly see people complaining that he isn’t written right or they’re seeing ooc versions of him #ooohhhhhh my god whatever who cares #i know i’m guilty of complaining about punk steve…. and i still don’t like the hc…but it’s not All I Do yk #i just think people forget that fandom is supposed to be fun
