(sour grapes?!)
Jul. 27th, 2005 03:08 amWhat I really don't know is why I click on links that basically say 'why fanon!Harry is better than canon!Harry'. Is it because I enjoy the beautiful little tingle of rage in my toes? I'm not sure. :-?
It's not necessarily that it's -Harry-, either, or that I hate fanon!Harry (...well, I don't love him, and can't think of a single truly brilliant instance, but whatevers). It's that whole 'but I'll just take the version I like and love it and hate the original' that drives me utterly insane. It's totally a slap to the face of like... writerly/readerly honesty? Artistic integrity? Something like that.
