[mm, i do my best to err on the side of optimism, that it's flattering, to have people have differing visions or interpretations of what i've made. certainly as in my case, i probably didn't know what i was doing from the get-go. gaps and variables are fine, they don't have to be flaws, you know? i'd wager that the emphasis on 'correct interpretations' really kills fandom, when it goes beyond a fun exchange of different ideas and turns into something competitive and nasty ]
