That's basically it, a huge part of why I'm comparatively much more a producer than a consumer, fic-ishly. Even stuff that's quite good is usually . . . . anywhere from slightly to eye-crossingly off for me. It's mostly my own fault: I tend to end up with very vividly strong impressions of characters and settings, and it's just my luck that very often I end up 30º off he fannish hivemind, so to speak.

(I'm kind of cursed. Even the one time I went for the m/m ship that should have had the fannish hivemind enraptured AND which I could accept variations on interp for . . . it turned out that was a het-dominated fandom with unexamined race issues, and one of my ship is black. :|)
