Going off of that long haired König post, if he grew it out again, do you think Ghost would play with it or braid it?

Or secret third option of trying to give König a trim and botching it badly.

secret fourth option of yanking it-

*ah hem*

Actually I think Ghost will hate it cuz then he’d start finding bright orange strands all over his gear, bed, bathroom....ANYWHERE really. So he'll bully König to cut it off XD

The third option is a funny thought but in a way that Ghost "trim" his hair carefully but only to find out just how thick this mtf's hair is and just grabs a shaver (König immediately screams and runs)

He might play with it when König falls asleep beside him, picture it like the way he would twirl it around his index, pull it off, watch it bounce like a spring, repeat.

writer asks: 2, 5, 30

2. Has writing a fic ever changed your opinion of a character?

Yes and no. I think, when I start writing a character, they're no longer 'canon' as such. So my opinions of the person I'm writing may change, but they don't necessarily change my opinions about the actual character on the screen.

But I can't say that writing different people hasn't made me examine them more closely to get a better read on them. There are characters that I haven't really thought much about usually, just on watching the show, but having to write them into scenes, I've had to look into them and their reasonings/motivations/etc more closely.

That said, if I don't like a character when watching a show, it's usually for reasons. Because of their actions or their words, and this doesn't change because I'm writing them. I'm still going to dislike them. I do try to write mostly unbiased and assign what I believe reasonable and character-true actions to them. I treat them all with respect. I don't demonise characters to write them worse, or sanctify them and write them better, depending on my opinions. TRY. I try to. Obviously, I can't say that this doesn't happen.

On the opposite spectrum, if I *like* a character, I feel it's a very big injustice to gloss over their flaws. That character IS that character and they're going to make their mistakes. Their flaws and their history is what makes them them. So when I write I try not to ignore things they've done or are likely to do in a given situation.

You can't change an entire character's emotional make up, their actions, their motivations, their flaws, and remain true to them.

More power to people who write fics like "SVU, but Olivia's mom was never raped and she had two loving parents and happy life and nothing bad ever happened"... I mean, I'm sure that's a great character, but it's probably not Olivia Benson.

Olivia is stubborn and bull headed and reckless with her own physical and emotional safety. She is deeply traumatised by her own creation and upbringing and refuses to admit it (at first). She holds people at arms length. She will crawl off like a cat to die alone before asking for help. She will ignore the law to do what she believes is morally right.

But she is empathetic and pours all of the understanding and love and help that she herself never got, that she needed, and gives it to others at the expense of herself. She will fight like hell to help anyone else. She is loyal and caring and wonderful.

All of that make her who she is.

"Veronica Mars, but she was never ostracised and Lilly Kane never died and she grew up happy and popular"... also probably a great character, but it's probably not Veronica Mars.

Veronica was forged in battle. And I hate this, because I firmly believe that people don't need to suffer to grow. But that doesn't change the fact that the Veronica we meet did suffer. And it made her who she is. We meet her as she's beginning her ascent from her trauma. It's messy and she's not always right.

She's stubborn and reckless and once she makes up her mind, it's very hard to change it. She'll fight to uncover injustice, at the cost of herself and her personal relationships, she's paranoid and untrusting to a point that is almost pathological.

And we love her for it.
