First of all I was out for a while, not posting doodles, re-blogging artsy stuff, doing so called reviews of things i was reading or watching etc..
Anyway...First time when I read a fanfic was around 10 years ago (not counting mini stories or smth, but actual fanfic) , I read a modern fantasy and i was left unsatisfied with the development of side characters, they were left uncertain , somehow abounded etc.. Right now the author promised a solo book or two about them, but it's not about it. After that I dropped fanfics for a long while, for me fanart of certain ships were enough to make me smile and feel happy.
Now recently, after being in isolation for a loooong while, a came across old but gold, sassy yet classy, traditional, well beloved by many DRAMIONE fanfics. I've never read those, but seeing so many Manacled arts and hype over it ( thank you TikTok for that and many more i guess) i decided to give it a shot. Needless to say i read loooot's of fanfics already, aaand i've noticed this tiny tiny big detail that i just LOVE.
THEODORE NOTT let me start from him !
I personally ( at the moment as i haven't read any other universe fanfics yet) think, he is one of the greatest characters adopted by fanfic authors. There is no much info about that character is the original books, and that makes him perfect candidate for side or main character. I still am researching on who/how it's all started, cause feels like everyone took some inspiration originally that later become a fan " canon" , aka fanon character trait for almost ALL the NOTTs and I think it's beautiful 😭
There are other characters like Blaise Zabini, Pansy Parkinson, Greengrass sisters, etc that also share some similar characteristics throughout most fanfics that i've read. I love the fact that authors decided to explore and add smth more to the characters like Lavender, Hannah , Nevile, Luna etc and make their interactions richer, deep, interesting, more fun. One of the things that i liked a lot is that fanon Ginny is THE GIRL we deserved to see in the movies, at least people do justice like that 😂
Overall it feels like Theo really became one of the most beloved characters on the platform, not gonna lie I like him too!
I will continue my journey exploring Wizarding World through fan-fiction and see what else i can observer there.
At this point i just read Dramione only for Theo 😂 Soon i'll jump on reading smth about him particularly, shipped with Luna probably. But damn after so manny accidental fanfics where he is also part of the story, it feels unnatural to read smth where there is no him at all.
