Anyway, all the bits I've seen I've loved! And I love canon details! Of course. And usually writers who have those also pay attention to the characterization, right, haha, so I don't have to choose. It was a measure of how picky I am with characterization that'd I'd *even* put it about canonicity in a broader sense.
Of course, I didn't read them...? Except for the very beginning of this (http://cinq.hdhols.com/forfuriosity.html)? So possssssibly I'm just talking out of my ass? Aaaas usual. Anyway, in no way am I in favor of fluff/bondage (it goes together!), but I want more than emotionally resonant? Any good fic, anyway, will be able to 'grab you' and therefore it's emotionally 'resonant' in that sense. On some level I think what I meant is that I want the fic to not only build on canon (which is important) but deconstruct canon (at least H&D)-- and trust me, I can't believe I just said that (ugh, fandom flashbacks), but not in a rational way but in an emotional way. Like, emotionally-based character deconstruction. I don't even know what I mean, but it's what I want most. I think. I don't know. The weird thing, I guess, is that I'm not coming at this from a place where I'm critical of H/D as a pairing/concept-- that was part of my previous mistake. Like, it's more that I just want to see its compotent parts? I want to see the pairing 'work for it'-- what I've always wanted. Logistics of different things. Emotional logistics, I guess, really. Aaaand for all I know all those fics have them, since of course I haven't read them, and was just going off on a navel-gazey tangent. ^^;;;
