I'm fond of my share, both fictional and real, as long as they are safely separated from me by either fiction or time.
See, you understand me. :D Yay.
It's also why fanfiction sometimes feels weirdly AU without intending to be so if it's based on first season characterisation while show and characters have moved on in a completely different direction.
HAHAHA, been there and done that. Sort of in reverse of your example, because Lucius Malfoy, despite being a Nazi analogue, was fictional enough that I could latch onto his Magnificent Bastardy in books 2 and 3, and then when later books came along, I started complaining to my partner. "Did he become evil?" she asked. "No, it's worse than that! *outrage* He became a wuss! (He was already evil, sheesh.)" :P
ETA: sorry for all the edits
No worries, I edit like mad whenever I think of a better way to phrase something. I've accumulated like 10 edits I would make to the Seven Years' War summary if there weren't already replies. :P
