Ah, also true.

I find that I get somewhat offended or irritated when people start railing off about their hatred for characters, even if they're characters that I personally don't like. I don't know what that is... maybe I'm bothered by the idea of having that much vitriol for someone who doesn't really exist and being exposed to it makes me as a real person feel weird... I don't know. It doesn't seem to make sense, but I tend to be more comfortable listening to people rant and rave about real people they dislike than about fictional ones.

Except sometimes Draco, or glamorized!fanon!Draco, at least. Probably because I see Draco in canon as all my negative characteristics rolled into one, without my positive ones, and yet people don't see that and see him as this clever hottie waiting to be redeemed.

I don't think I really hate any of the well-rounded characters in ASOIAF. I mean, I have some serious hatred for Joffrey, but he never really gets that well-rounded. I know a lot of people really hate Cersei, but while I find her a pretty contemptible human being, I absolutely love reading about her. The "hate" list is pretty much Joffrey, Gregor, Viserys... no one we really get a detailed portrait of.
