Why, oh why, do I love death fic like I do? Nothing makes me quite as happy (or sad, in a happy way) when my favorite characters bite the big one it, hopefully in as tragic and devastating a method as possible, leaving the survivors bereft and reeling.

Is it my psyche's way of dealing with my own anxiety about death? Trying to answer the big questions about why we're born, why we die and, hey, isn't this digital watch pretty neat?  Perhaps it's the catharsis? Or maybe I'm a closet sadist?

These are the questions that I'm not sure I want answers to.

I am also tempted to think it is something to do with catharsis... and appreciating life while you have it.

That's the nice side of it. Sometimes I think the only reason I wrote All Good Things was to punish House for being mean to Wilson (by, of course, being even meaner to Wilson). I guess I was looking to force House to have a moment of clarity--death is a rather expedient tool.

Lucy: A tragic life is romantic when it happens to somebody else.

LOL. So true.
