I don't understand most of what you're saying here. I'm going to address the last bit, then, and hope for the best.
I'm not saying anything isn't possible in fanfiction. I'm the last person who would be saying that. I like to see people doing new and crazy things. But sometimes I see fics that go past even the AU or OOC border into a land I'm not familiar with, and if I can't recognize the characters and world of the fandom the fic is supposed to be in, then that's not a nice experience. That's all I meant.
If everything conformed to canon, it would be pretty dull, wouldn't it? I hope that's not the impression that I was giving.
