There's this trend I'm calling "Over-corrective fanon." Where you have a commonly held opinion in fandom that is seen as inaccurate. In response, a new headcanon springs out, usually designed to combat the first fanon by swinging in the complete opposite direction.

For example, let's pick an obvious one: Combating the 'Dick Grayson was the ray of sunshine" by going "Dick was actually an angry kid! Jason thought Robin was magic."

None of the Robins were "The Angry Robin" They all had varying emotions, and boiling them down to one extreme or the other is just not embracing the character in the entirety.

Something about the wizard dying right after giving Billy the title Champion of Magic hurts me.

Billy isn’t told what he’s supposed to do, he wants to help people with his new power and status, but no one’s telling him how because the only one who could died in front of him.

Now he’s stumbling blindly through life trying to get it right while everyone judges him because “clearly the old wizard Shazam picked another dud, this person isn’t doing anything he’s supposed to!”

See sometimes I worry I make Steph into to much of Cass's special person. Then other times I wonder if I make Cass to much into Steph's special person. Then I remember that these two hallucinate eachother and I give up.

I never used to check my email. Then I discovered AO3

And then on the other side of the spectrum it’s just artists finding increasingly unique ways to hide the hands in drawings

nobody warns you that writing makes you obsessed with hands. what are they doing? are they trembling? are they clenched? are they—

I hope I'm not just a mutual to you, but someone you want to bring up in irl conversation so you have to awkwardly and cryptically say "my friend..." and refuse to elaborate on my origins or the origins of our friendships
