All valid points. It's FREAKING LATE and I tend to get sentimental and weird on sleep-deprivation. Again I didn't really set out to fix things for him, it just sort of happened over the course of writing the rest of it, a bunch of rotating pieces gradually slotting together until I realized that I only had a few ways forward, and only one that wouldn't completely gut me to write.

And yes, heh, I personally had a ton of sympathy for everything he'd gone through and all of the issues he was still clearly dealing with despite claiming otherwise. I meant more like what the more serious elements of the fandom want/expect, where if you don't denounce him as a sociopathic barely-human almost-villian then you're missing the point and deserve to be run out on a rail. Which I never understood, because wasn't the whole point that 'real' masked heroes would just be human? The sort of fanatical need to avoid misaimed fandom ends up bordering on demonizing, to me at least.

That said, again: late. So probably not making a ton of sense.
