“I just never will. If an OC and a Canon Character happen to fall in love then so be it. The only problem is when a person bends a character’s personality and makes them fall in love or makes them extremely out of character, but hell, that happens a lot in Canon/Canon too when it comes to fandom. It’s not automatically terrible or even bad if an OC is paired up with a Canon Character, if that’s how the story’s played out according to the roleplayer(s)/writer then let it be. It’s their love story, it’s no one else’s to judge just because someone has their Original with someone from a show/book/etc.
And besides, there’s one important thing everyone seems to overlook when they bash OC/Canon. In the end, no matter what, they’re all characters. And characters are all equal, one is not higher than the other because they have a show, movie or book. And a character shouldn’t have to be “deserving” of the canon character, that’s just not how love works.”

I’m reblogging this simply because some people need a damn reminder about this.
((This. Though before rp’ing with some who plays a canon character, I’ll always stop and ask if they mind the posibility of it. I won’t force it, ever.))
This post perfectly describes all my thoughts and feelings on the matter. Love it. THANK YOU!!!
