unfortunately i have free will so im about to make art that is going to appeal to basically 4 people. let us hope those 4 people follow me.

my long time conspiracy theory is that the huge prevalence of "dead wife" trope is because a lot of writers want their cool male protagonist to be single and/or focused on his goal but don't know how else "justify" him not pursuing women around him sexually or god forbid turn their advances down that is not emasculating in their mind
