Purely as a reader, I would say that there's a place for all styles.
Well said, Kathy. I'm a believer in the fact that there's something for everybody in the world of fanfic. Personally speaking, introspection bores me most days. A few snippets are fine, but when it gets to be a page long, it's just not for me. However, there a plenty of other stories jam-packed with dialogue that I can read. Actually, if the story has a killer plot, I'll just skip over the introspection and get back to the action.
So, my opinion is write what you want. It's not like it's the end of the world if you don't feel like tailoring it to one audience or another who automatically starts bowing
