It's kind of hard to not have the mentally of "it's not accurate anymore, so why bother" because the big voices in the fandom are literally loudly celebrating like "YES! I WAS RIGHT ABOUT THIS! HE HATES HIS JOB AND HATES KIDS! IT FEELS SO GOOD TO BE PROVEN RIGHT!" And honestly, it makes people like me, who just recently had the courage to share my au, scared of sharing it now. I don't want to be constantly bothered by "that's not canon" "no, he wouldn't say/act like that" "you're misrepresenting his character" messages all the time.
I get this feeling, this is how I spend my first year in the community in silence. Which can be agonizing because you feel like you're drowning between popular interpretations that are far away from yours and if you show that you have a different point of view of the character they are going to jump to your neck.
But you know what? There is always someone that will share your opinions, and get invested in your AUs. Besides, you're in a pretty accepting fandom with mermaids, cryptics, dragons, fae, vampires, gods, etc etc, AUs everywhere.
If someone calls you out for not being "canon accurate" you let them know that it's an Alternative Universe and if they keep bothering you, you have all the rights to block them, you owe them nothing.
Besides, people are really fast to point out and say "I WAS RIGHT AND YOU WERE WROOOONG". This happened when ruin came out, they found the Moon plush with Casey's thought about the DCA and people were like "YES Moon was soft in the past and got evil because of the virus, FUCK YOU evil moon enjoyers >:D he's actually good!" (literally saw someone say something like that and it was so random) and it's like, so what??? This doesn't stop me from writing Moon evil, I'm going to write him however I want, I'm not gonna write a f i c t i o n a l character in a way I don't feel right with.
It's ok if you don't feel comfortable in sharing your AU right now but don't let the fear of sharing your art hold you back. I wouldn't be here where I am if I was taken aback out of fear from sharing my art and AUs (AUs in which the most accurate one the animatronics has dart guns and DCA has a whole arsenal in his pants, like-)
Give yourself a little time out of the fandom, let things cool down a little and keep writing that AU, or make new ones you find comfort in, whatever will make you happy do it.
I know it's easier said than done...

Chan said he doesn't mind how we call him ("just to clear things up (...) no hard feelings") and he decided to call us his baby STAYs, because bbygirls and bbyboys is too long.
So I guess, case closed lol. 馃
