i have opened two batfam fics in the past week that proudly declare in the opening authors note that the author hasn’t interacted with canon in the slightest like. not even the cartoons? the most palatable and easy to get into version of dc? why are you even reading fanfics for media you’ve never touched, let alone writing them?? i get anxious writing characters for media i’ve been into for years and rewatched/reread multiple times how do you not feel like you’re going to explode trying to write fanfic solely based on other peoples interpretations of characters?? if you’re gonna get characters wrong at least do it your own way like damn
#.txt#neg#sometimes when i’m writing a oneshot for a fandom i know i’m probably not even gonna write for again#i’ll still have like two tabs open for each character#one for personality details and one for quotes to get their speech patterns roughly right#which i realise is neurotic and i’m not saying anyone Needs to do that#but at least idk. looking at the source material at all ever is a good place to start
