Real life has enough pain. I didn't need this. None of us needed this.

OMG YES. This is one of the reasons why this ending pisses me off so. damn. much. We have enough to deal with in RL, we don't need this. We need heartfelt lovely-ness between our boys that's going to send us away floating.

I'm devastated, too. My family is sick of hearing about this show and its ridiculous ending, because I can't make sense of it, and therefore, can't shut up about it.

I'm going to keep watching till all is said and done, because 1) it would drive me nucking futz not to see how it all plays out now, and 2) I want to finish what I started, no matter how much the end sucks. I also wanna see how much Van and Eric rock it, even though the plotline blows.

And you know what? I'm gonna watch, I'm gonna cry, and I'm probably gonna be messed up about it all for a while, but after that, I'm going back into my happyland where Luke and Reid are together forever and both are happy and well. Screw "canon". It means nothing to me in this instance, because the writers wouldn't have known a good storyline if it had jumped up and bit them on the ass. Hell, it practically did.

My biggest fear about watching it is that I have an 87 page fanfiction that I need to finish. If I watch it and it becomes too real to me that Reid is dead, it might kill the story. Hell, honestly, having watched the promo, the story might be dead as it is. Besides, everyone's going to be in so much mourning, who would want to read it even if I did finish it? Whatever. That's not why I write. But, yeah, I am afraid of risking that story.

My employers will be out of town next week and I am trying to decide if I should spend the days writing, or if I should watch the show so that I can cry my heart out without any worry of anyone seeing me since I'll be alone in the office. I know, though, if I watch, there will be no writing. And this is a fantastic opportunity to finish the stories.

I don't know.

Sorry. Your journal isn't the place for this. I'm just sort of babbling now. I think I'm in a kind of shock, even though I knew this was coming and have since like June.

No worries. Feel free to babble all you want. It helps me realize that I am not alone in how I feel. I'm so torn because I know van and Eric loved this ending, and I know they'll be fantastic, but it's just such an awful end to L/R's story. Ugh.

I don't think you should worry about your fanfiction, because we in the LuRe community will DEFINITELY read it. Even if it's sad and heartwrenching, we'll still read it. I really hope that if you choose to watch the ending, it doesn't kill your drive to write. Don't let it ruin something else for you!

Agh. Now I'm rambling. Stupid show. :-/
