From now on I am banned from watching movies in which one of the main characters dies. If I ever mention wanting to see a movie and you know that one of the good guys dies and there won’t be a happy ending, tell me to keep far away from it. Especially if it’s a movie that I am already familiar with the story and therefore should KNOW what happens at the end but I have this little problem of NEVER listening to the voice in my head so I watch it anyway and then am upset about the ending for DAYS.
This is why I have to make things end on a positive note for my characters. Because I just can’t handle people not living happily ever after in movies and books. Everything doesn’t have to be sunshine and rainbows, but I need at least the chance of happiness for the main characters I’ve become so attached to.
