like with the other ask, if you look under the read more, you agree to see opinions that may run counter to yours!

the character everyone gets wrong

HM this is tricky since there's a lot of flexibility with the characters to allow for your own headcanons that there's no real incorrect way to portray them. I mean, we've managed to avoid the pitfall of Iguazu being turned into a woobie, bc everyone fully embraces him being a hater loser guyfail, which is how it should be.

Hmm... I think I'll pass on this question bc I can't actually think of anyone that "everyone" gets wrong dfhfdhdf

16. you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

not gonna lie, i sat here for a good while trying to think of something, bc amazingly a lot of people's characterisation/headcanons/etc are pretty close to mine, at least close enough for me to accept or at least understand. mostly i just have nitpicks which seem a bit too petty to flaunt LMAO

like, iguazu being a hater guyfail who's constantly stepping on rakes? freud the fightsexual who in another life 621 would've drawn up a restraining order against? walter caring for 621 but he's so fucking messed up thanks to parental neglect (amongst other issues) that he has no idea how to process/show it? allmind who is both very clever yet extraordinarily lacking in common sense? my fave hcs are widely agreed upon...

HMM. oh wait, there is one minor characterisation i'm kinda meh towards, and that's having Hawkins be like. super old. people have him look like he's in his 60s or smth and almost a grandfather... he didn't sound that old, and while he was certainly old-fashioned in calling Pater 'my boy' or 'son', he came across more like. idk. late 30s/early 40s. that's still being in your prime if you're a fit, healthy human! esp in ac6 verse where humans are likely long lived, esp augmented ones. honestly envision pater/hawkins as like, pater as the young (20s) intern getting involved with his supervisor in his 40s sort of thing. something you'll see in a porno somewhere.

19. you're mad/ashamed/horrified you actually kind of like...

i am shameless. absolutely shameless. i'm never mad, ashamed or horrified to discover i like anything no matter how weird or degenerate it is. nods.
