Well yeah, obviously if you're trying to "convert" people, there has to be an interest there first. I wouldn't try and shove meta and fic down someone's throat for a totally random character, but for characters they're already interested in, then that's fine.
I was just saying that seeing that nuance is something that naturally springs out of to spending time with the material. If you've gone over a script-- especially one of the scanter or more shoddily translated ones-- one time, you're going to miss things. Whereas someone who's gone in trying to figure things about about the characters and they've read or played through it a bunch of times is going to see stuff between the lines a lot more. I like to give analysis the benefit of the doubt; for the most part, it's grounded understandably in the source material, even if it might be taken to conclusions that weren't built into the original game.

I think that gets at what you were saying?
