What makes you want to write fic about a particular canon?

I write for a lot of multi-fandom exchanges, so I'm often writing something I wouldn't think to otherwise, something that I offered because I could write it more than because I specifically wanted to write it. I have fun with that-- I enjoy figuring out how to approach a canon I haven't really thought about in terms of fic.

The two canons that I return to over and over again have a lot of gaps and potential different interpretations (though, for one of them, there's a lot of canon that came out after I started writing that I ignore). They're also fandoms I read in relatively widely before starting to write in them. I think that reading fic tends to make me want to write fic.

There are some fandoms where I have a single big idea that takes hold of me. In those fandoms, I'm not interested in writing a lot of different stories, just the one that's seized my imagination.
