ngl when it comes to villainizing or woobifying a character in your writing i think intent matters more than anything. like you can tell someone hates or loves the shit out of a character when they get them so ooc they act too...off, and that can be both in a way where they're unnecessarily cruel or evil for no apparent reason, and in a way where they're overly cutesy or soft or just...perfect, also for no apparent reason.

but sometimes people write characters in their fics ooc with the intent goal of that being the case, like in AUs and the like. sometimes you just wanna make your fave go insane, and other times you wanna redeem that fave. idk i just think there's a lot of nuance in some areas of fanon, though there are various cases of mischaracterization that are extremely annoying to me. i think the writer's intent affects whether a character's writing ends up 2 or 3 dimensional a lot.

#i plan to write a fic that paints aubrey in a pretty bad light but like. the point in it is that she's slowly losing it lmfao #it'll be like a character study. like what if i wrote her slightly to the left #canon divergence and all that #as opposed to me writing omori in yurushite in which he's trying to redeem himself #i mean he's failing but he's trying. he's not perfect #you could argue i 'woobify' him sometimes which. yea that's fair tbh lmao #i don't have any arguments against that i mean look at him he's a boo boo baby in my au as opposed to canon where he's. like That #idk this has just been on my mind a lot lately ehe #misty says things
