Hhhhhh

I'm. Not angry bc that's not remotely fair but frustrated

Alfie used all the cash we had on hand to get more weed, which I knew was on the table and they really needed it for pain relief but like. Now I have 20 quid in the bank and we need food and electricity. Like we can get one or the other and they're asleep for work rn and I don't feel comfortable making that decision on my own but I'll be real I'm also feeling pretty rough getting one meal a day

I think that it is important to return to that understanding and divide between Canon and Fanon again.

Yes, Canon has problems and plot holes and issues, but that is fundamentally the starting point and base for fanworks. It’s not mouldable and it’s not going to change unless the creator of said Canon— or new owner, in the wild cases of Disney and Star Wars and Amazon and LOTR (I guess?)— changes what they originally have written.

I think that it’s fine to jokingly say “oh I accept this as canon now” or “this is canon” to a Fan interpretation, but emphasis on the joke. People have to understand that Fanon Canon is not Canon.

Fanon literally comes from Fandom and Canon. It is not Canon. It should never be treated like Canon save for extenuating circumstances where Canon can no longer uphold itself to its prior standards. And even then that Fanon needs to be taken with the biggest fucking heaping of salt possible.

By treating Fanon as Canon, it restricts any creativity and further building onto the Canon base-frame and is ultimately harmful to new creators and even old ones who don’t want to adhere to some new fanon idea that suddenly barges in. You are not the first to be a fan of something, you are not the last fan of something and ultimately you are not the creator of a series that you are a fan of. You cannot change Canon and you cannot force others to accept your Fanon as Canon.

Every single interpretation of Canon is its own Fanon and that is just how it is.

Pointing at someone else’s work and saying “that’s not right!” just because that isn’t how you interpret a character, pairing, situation, location, foundation, organization, motive, narrative, or anything else is both a dick move and wrong.

You are allowed to create worlds upon worlds based on your own Fanon, but you cannot force that onto someone else. Furthermore, you cannot force a Fanon take onto someone else because, again, Fanon is not Canon and it is not your job nor even remotely OK for you to force someone to accept a Fanon take they don’t want to.

Likewise, you cannot force someone to make use of a “Fanon” Character because all that is at the very core is an over glorified OC with a cult following. That character is not Canon. 

Forcing Fanon onto someone ultimately is what drives people away from the fandom, and when you complain that there’s no more good work being put out by fans, take a moment to ask yourself why that is.
