Even if I see something and the description bashes on a character I don't like very much myself, I think *How good can it be?* and usually pass it up. There are better ways to give such warnings; there are better ways to tell such stories.
In this case, the artwork visual precedes the description, so it harshed my squee over the drawing. With fic, it's usually the other way around. The sad thing is, both the drawing and the fic might be very good in themselves - so what is the point of note? If you dislike things a character did, why not just do what I do, and write the occasional "RAWR RAWR" post/meta about it in your journal? Shit, that's the whole reason I rant occasionally about Elizabeth, so it won't bleed too hard into my writing.
