Day 10: Reserved for one or two questions from Day 3! (I'm definitely going to do most, if not all, of these questions! ♡ So this is just part 1. :D)

Which character either because of story/backstory or performance broke your heart and why?

Oh, this is definitely Quentin Coldwater, hands down. It's all because of the ending, so the solution is to just ignore this part of canon and pretend it didn't happen, which most of the fandom has been cheerfully doing for the last 4+ years. xD But still, it was honestly the saddest that a fictional story has ever made me feel in my entire life.

Rika Furude broke my heart too, mostly in Gou, mostly in this scene/episode, which I immediately made into an incorrect quote graphic (the quote is NYTMinusContext) in order to tame it via crack, as I do, but it didn't get much less heartbreaking tbh.


Also Jaskier is currently inexplicably breaking my heart in S3 of The Witcher, like, this is weird and doesn't have ~logical reasons~, but it doesn't change the fact that he just does, lol.

I totally need to finish watching The Magicians. I really should just do a full rewatch, especially cause it is on Netflix.

I didn't watch The Magicians, but I heard what happened to his character and that is absolutely heartbreaking for the fandom. :( Character deaths of beloved are always so hard to grapple with, particularly ones where the character was struggling a lot with their own issues, and especially when the death itself was so unfairly done in canon. I think the fandom was in utter revolt when that happened, everyone was sad and enraged.
