Subject: I feel a bit torn.

So, I've been getting deeper into fandom stuff on Twitter and Tumblr, and I have found myself being an unapologetic fan of two M/M ships I used to despise for being "non-canon". Now, I've been realizing that the whole "stick to canon characterizations" thing goes a bit against one point of fanfiction: to see how your own interpretations of your favorite characters' personalities would play out.

And that's when I feared: have I become the very thing I swore to destroy when I joined the PPC? I really like writing my own interpretations of characters and don't want to be told off because "it's not canon", but also my first Boardiversery is coming up and I'm eagerly awaiting the day that I can finally write for the PPC.

I don't necessarily accept all OOCness (turning characters into mouthpieces to bash something you don't like is not okay in my book), but I feel that it can be fun to write.

I don't know what to do. Help!
