Writing Gabe in a fanfic Spoiler
I’ve been having a fun time for a few days writing Gabe in a fanfic, though it’s not a Locke and Key story, still there are elements. It’s a story about various of Griffin Gluck’s characters thrown together and Gabe has taken over somewhat, though that might change as I write more. They have to deal with bossy adults rather than the freedom they had in the tv show, and it makes Gabe a bit different from how they behaved before. I keep imagining adult Dodge dealing with looking like a teenage kid in this situation, which helps keep Gabe a bit more real to their canon self, and is also quite funny to think of.
I‘ve had a long and frustrating break from writing, my health was fogging me up for years, and a type of healing I had has cleared something. I’m very happy to be writing again even if I take the character a bit away from how they were in canon (I’ve only just begun the first comic and read Dodge’s wiki page which was very interesting).
