Speshul like a kick in the head. 9_9 What gets me is sometimes these stories are reccommended to me as being really rather good and a fairly sensitive portrayal of a character usually either ignored or villainized by the fandom. (The example I'm thinking of is the ex-wife of the main character in a series popular with slashers and also with people who write "gen-fic" which has supposedly platonic naked bathing and french-kissing of men. Yes. WTF, I say.)
Then there are those who spell it some non-canon way because they like that way better. -_- Even though the way they spell it would logically be pronounced differently. Talk about disrespecting the character.
