Title: At the train station, trying hard not to cry
Post by: Bunny on 06:45am Sat, Sep 8, 2012

I am sitting at the train station, it's 8:45pm. Waiting to go home. I have always known the end of my story because it has a prophecy that clearly states the quartet becomes a trio...and I knew which one was to die since I began the story, but I wasnt sure how exactly and figured I would get to that. I always assumed he would be injured or he would ''expire/run out of life'' (wont elaborate it's a spoiler on who).

But tonight I am being whispered to and the death of one of the heroes is so fucking tragic I am fighting back tears and everyone is staring at me. I couldnt have come up with a better, more heroic or memorable death...I just hope I can write it well enough to make you all cry so I can snigger in my evil revenge ;).

So yeah, someone distract me because everyone is staring and my lip is wobbling and I keep having to pretend my hair is stabbing my eyeballs and growling/sighing about it :S.

Awww.... I'm sorry!  *hugs*

I'm glad that you came up with something so tragic that it actually brought you to tears. Isn't it amazing how close we can get to our own characters some times? It's obviously your duty to do whatever you can to give the character justice, though, so I wish you the best luck in finding the right words to do so.

You're going to push this character in front of the train, aren't you? AREN'T you?!?

You sick, sick person! I think I love you!

I think it was more the gesture than "it's my friend dying". I immediately went to "how would I feel" and yeah I felt horrible ha ha.

Was there anything that triggered ideas? I'm curious how tragic it will be. I think you had a nice feeling when you finally had an idea and saw it all coming together :)

Nope! It just happened. Essentially one character sacrefices themselves to save the other character. The way it's done, out of love, just eats me up ha ha.

I have had my main character on my back for a while to get started again, but I havent....maybe he was trying to push me or something ha ha.
