i think the most bizarre reaction to seeing fanart (other than going "i thought this was [totally unrelated thing that it doesnt even look like]') is to go 'this isn't canon'. like.... yeah it's not supposed to be?

people have headcanons! there are also different interpretations of unclear or hard-to-quantify-exact-meaning canon!

but it doesn't even have to be a headcanon. art is an exploration of thoughts and concepts. it's an expression of creativity. sometimes it's just a fun exercise. for fun. any time i see someone go 'thats not what really happened' i dont think 'aw shit i got it so wrong', i think: wheres your joie de vivre. your whimsy. embrace things that arent real

#i am in part guilty of this bc i have like a whole section of my brain chemically wired around deathclaws so i get it but also like #i only do that when conversation is brought up and actively involves me #i dont just go on someone's post and go THATS NOT REAL bc whats the point?? what are you achieving with that attitude #it's fiction! none of this is real! #destiny2 fandom is full of this in particular though and like. you can just not say anything. if you dont like the post dont engage with it
