like why does his resolution have to be death

he gains an actual familial relationship with his dad, he becomes more comfortable living as a semi-normal and semi-happy kid, he becomes a hero

oh yeah well he’s fulfilled his arc, he’s got nothing left, his character’s come full circle

I AM SO SICK OF THAT SHIT

like ohh his death is so meaningful NO

NO OKAY HE IS TEN

I WANNA SEE HIM KEEP GROWING

I WANT TO SEE HIM CONTINUE TO BE A HERO

NOT JUST HAVE A LAST CROWNING SACRIFICE BEFORE KILLING HIM OFF

GOD

GOD I AM SICK OF THIS SHIT
