I simply can't plan out characters in advance, it always has to be on the spot. I dunno, might be a "flow" I get when an idea springs to mind. It only stays for a little while, so I have to take advantage of it while it's there. As for my Bitching: People who make canon characters act totally different from their personality when dealing with their character. It's so annoying to me, especially if I know what source material said character comes from. God damn special snowflakes.
