to counter this post (which shows compassion for characters)...

i have this question for you folks. :)

do you have any character(s) that you particularly enjoy the idea of planning out their death(s)?

every single character of mine is an AU (alternate universe) version of characters i've used for roleplays, and a series of books which i'm actually putting thoughtful research into (so essentially, this novel will be a side-story, in an AU :D)

so thus, i'm enjoying the idea of killing them all off, just to relax my frustration of them just not up and writing themselves, and researching their own bloody weaponry and such for the series. friggin characters, not writing themselves. writing shouldn't BE this hard! XD

some don't deserve to die so much, but the characters around them do deserve to suffer, so they will watch their friends die, and then be killed too. :)

am i the only truly sadistic person who thinks like this? i hope not! O_o;

keep in mind, this is for my writing. i'd never do anything like this in the big scary real world. people seemed to forget that about me a lot when i was in school and into the horror genre. ;)

ETA: thanks all, good to know i'm not the only one who relishes murdering characters in wonderfully thought-out ways. :)
