The pain of AU fic...

My main fic writing has always been AU. Well, I mean all fic is AU when it comes down to it. But mine is definitely AU in the directions I take them.
When a show does something that totally contradicts something you're writing...it's just a tad annoying. The character I'm writing won't be close to the one that is going to appear and now I'm wishing they'd just keep him off screen and just give us little bits.
It's much easier to deal with the shadow and subtext.
And now I'm not sure what to do. Keep writing how I am writing him? Because I have a lot invested in how I have written him and them and their role within the story. And I'm not entirely convinced that the upcoming episode may not violate a 2nd season episode...though continuity has never been Aaron's strong point, plus he's not actually writing the episode.

Me babble? Not much.
