Boy, you kill someone, everyone makes a fuss! Yet I still feel differently about this than what I've done before. It's a tragedy, classically structured. Usually death is meaningless and arbitrary in my work, to reflect life, but this is the old brew. And yes, I have issues. This will come up again, I'm sure.

Issues is putting it mildly.

I bailed on DR horrible half way through ep one, I got the feeling he was gonna rip my heart out through my chest and smash it again like in serenity, and so I left it before I could become too attached to his characters... Again.
