Yes, but sometimes interpretation points out something really essential, and then you (or I, anyway *g*) need to question what you've been believing. I had a real "did I see this all wrong, all the time?" moment there. It passed, but I needed to hash it out here to trust my own reaction again.

Oh damn you, you broke my brain! And it was fairly broken to begin with, today. (Didn't sleep well, etc.)

See my AU manifesto of a few days ago. ;-)
I'm here for the playing. But I need to be sure of my canon before I play. I need to have a fairly firm picture of "what is" before I can begin to play with "what could be" - need to know what there is before I can *react*. And yeah, parts of that picture are individual, personal - but a lot is based on a common understanding, too, and I wasn't quite sure, for a while today, if I diverged from that common understanding in yet another important aspect (apart from the 2.08 heresy, that is. *g*)
