In this post on [livejournal.com profile] gabrielleabelle's LJ, I was intrigued by this snippet of conversation:

[livejournal.com profile] angearia - "See, I'm happy that he's back. I want Spike alive (undead) and out there causing havoc as a bad, rude man."

[livejournal.com profile] gabrielleabelle - "Ah, but that's what fanfic is for! I have no doubt that if Spike's arc had ended (in canon) with Chosen, fanfic writers would still be writing happy, fluffy post-series Spuffy stories. We're just creative like that. :)"


Which I found interesting, because I wouldn't be nearly as likely to write post-series Spike fic if he'd stayed dead. I just wouldn't see it the same way.

So, I have made a mini poll, to see what others think...

What you said. The canons I like all have their tiny little spaces inside my head where the characters and the world are real - and when a character dies in canon, they die in that space too, and no amount of fanfic can undo it.

Word. You said that much more eloquently.
