The only one so far I haven't been able to see the other POV about is Lucius; I just hate Lucius. I'm really curious about *why* I hate him with such singlemindedness, and I know many disagree with me and I get why they do. I just disagree.
That's always what interests me too--why do I like/hate this character so much? It's not just that they're bad or good because lots of characters are that way without really catching my interest. The Lucius thing particularly interests me because I don't have very strong feelings about him, even though some of his behavior, like the way he treats Draco in the B&B scene, is a total pet peeve of mine.
In a way, I don't really relate to a lot of the interest in him. I'm interested in his relationship with Draco which I think is incredibly unhealthy, but I am more surprised by interest in him and Harry. I just don't really feel much about their relationship in canon at all. There's no chemistry there for me.
I have a friend who is a Spike fan and I'll never forget the first time we talked about it and realized we had such similar experiences--they're different characters, but we could completely understand each other anyway.
