why are there fans that get nutted up about who and what characters aren't, instead of just accepting who and what characters are?

Because it's easier to assume the character isn't the way you want him/her to be, and to blame that on the writers, than to accept that a character isn't exactly what you want?

well, how could it be exactly what you want? *you* didn't write it? i don't get that sense of outrage mixed with entitlement. :::scratches head:::

Maybe it's a side-effect of the sense of entitlement that our society seems to have developed over the last few, well, decades, I guess.

It makes no sense on a lot of levels, getting that emotionally wrapped up in fictional characters (of course, that can definitely be taken with a rather large grain of salt, coming from someone who obssesses over a tv show to the point she writes fic). O_o

ahhhh, but i see that as inspiration. storytellers are locksmiths.;)

Good heavens. You're not expecting logic in the land of fandom, are you? ;-)

Lilah was a fabulous character. completely twisted and totally unapologetic about it.
