Umm, question... What do you do when one of the major plot points of your fanfiction turns out to be fundamentally wrong? As in, to further the plot you have a character you know existed but never actually met be die a long time before the story actually starts... only this character suddenly shows up in canon, alive and kicking.
Now, to my credit, this character is only ever even mentioned in the manga, let alone makes an appearance. The anime never ever makes a reference to her, and I never read the manga anyway (It's not really something I ever wanted to do. It's all about the emotion and action for me, which I just don't get in manga)
So, what I really want to know, is this: Can I, in good conscience, leave this glaring mistake as it is, or should I do a complete overhaul, thereby changing one of the main premises of my story, and possibly killing my interest in the story all together?
Then again, I could just make it an AU...
Yeah, I think I'll go with that option.
Thank you, LJ, for helping me decide that!
