Do you have a single vision of the characters you write often or do you find yourself differentiating the versions in different stories? That is, do you always write a given character the same way or do you vary your interpretations?

For me, it depends. There are some things about characters that I think are always true, but there are other things I change from story to story, mostly bits of backstory that aren't specified in canon. Any interpretation I take has to explain everything in canon and be consistent with what's on the screen or on the page. I think part of it is that I write divergent AUs so that the circumstances around the characters are always different from story to story; the stories aren't part of a single continuity.
