mischaracterization in fics

ever read a fic but a character or like multiple characters were completely ooc and it made u feel annoyed or feel mental anguish

im currently reading a fic with a sex scene and the mischaracterization in it scene was so bad i started shouting "my goat would never do this" like usually im fine with ooc bc everyone has their own interpretations of characters but even then you can at least get one thing right abt their personality

honestly, it doesn't bother me much. there's a lot of ooc interpretations that i really like, even if it twists the character. if i don't like it, i don't read it. sadly, there's always someone who's going to turn my fave into a nightmarish leech-infested personified scumbag, or else they'll get turned into a meow meow little bitch boy. sometimes, ...... 1 reply

“ even then you can at least get one thing right abt their personality” Reminder that no matter how shitty the fic is, it is free. It isn’t a service you paid for and the writers have no obligation to do anything. 2 reply

The 00Q fanfic I read where they made Q dumb as shit but with the occasional clever quip A johnlock fanfic I read where Sherlock had the same problem I think the fanfic authors just didn’t know how to write characters where part of their main character trait is being smart and clever constantly and not just during “witty banter” Sometimes...... reply
