My curiosity got the better of me and I scrolled back over my flist and found the drawing (can't bring myself to call it artwork) you were talking about. Normally I just skip over anything that appears to be Jack/Elizabeth oriented because I figure it won't be favorable towards my boy. I have enough stress in my life, thank you very much, and I don't need to get upset by thoughtless (read that witless) people. The best way to avoid, is to ignore. I love Will......period. I do not understand how anyone can hate the character, but to each his own. I don't bash other characters and I don't think its funny or cute to say disparaging things about something or someone that other people like - especially in a fandom that is supposed to celebrate ALL the characters. The thing that bothered me the most about the post though, was the way she just blew it off as being surprised that the "Will" people would take it seriously or be offended by it.P-L-E-A-S-E.
We all know that if we said something like that about Jack in a forum that was dedicated to all the characters, we'd be ripped to shreads! Why isn't Will afforded the same amount of courtesy as the other characters? I know I shouldn't let this bother me, but I am soooooooo tired of people bashing my beautiful, heroic, selfless boy.
