Yes, there is definitely so much, "Does this narration actually SOUND like this person though? Would THEY do that? Will fans agree with this characterization???" right now, and it's frankly annoying. People who think writing fic is easy since the characters come ready made do not understand the struggles of trying to fit other people's notions of what the characters are like.
That's a good life goal! I'd like to try it with friends and by myself at least once each, to see if I actually like it or if I am just romanticizing the notion (I'm not very outdoorsy.)
