I'm gonna cut this just because I still don't want to upset anyone.
So, back in October, I brought up a cancer plot idea for Sarah Connor and I've spent the better part of the last month thinking the whole idea over. I considered the the pros and cons of the plot, the philosophy and medical options involved, and have finally decided against pursuing it. For those I upset with the post in October, I'm totes sorry. That wasn't at all my intention. :(
I just wanted to let people know that I really, really thought long and hard about it. I'll still be really discreet when it comes to those canonical issues, though, and so as not to upset people, I'll deffo warn if there's ever any talk about it.
In any case, Lestat is going to murder Sarah (since he is a bit peckish and his vampire...y self) which will effectively reset her clock. For her, this means that the Barge will simply suspend the cancer's progress when it brings her back. Good enough Barge explanation for me!
Anyway, I am kinda excited to deal with death toll from a writing perspective since I've never done that before. For people who've death tolled a character before, any tips, hints, suggestions, or words of wisdom? I dunno what to tag this, so I'm tagging it as plot.
