One of the things I enjoy most about media is that it can be changed from it's original point of creation into something different by the agreement of a collective.
Take Pixar's Luca as my first example:
Technically the characters here we're not queer upon it's creation, but with how many people say they are because they see the community struggles and emotions reflected back by the movie change the entire meaning of the movie to be just that, queer. (Side note- Luca gave me In a Heartbeat vibes the whole time)
People seeing Steven Universe's Lars and Gravity Falls' Dipper as transgender. Technically the characters were created without this intent, but with so many people in agreeance it's as if its true anyway. It's overwritten the original idea in a way.
This isn't a bad thing, if that's what you've picked up from my post. It's inspiring when it comes to media and works of art/story. It means a large group of people have connected with the characters on a deeper level, finding a comfy place to say "Hey, look! That's like my friend/myself".
Interpretation is a powerful and wondrous thing. I first realized it's power in middle school when I won a writing contest in class, but the teacher read my story in a completely different tone than I'd imagined upon writing it. It wasn't better or worse, it was just different. Everyone really liked it, that made me happy as a creator.
