I do want her to die in the end. Not for shock value, but so her time on earth living authentically and the brevity of life can be meaningful to both of them. She is able to go fulfilled and peacefully. And it enables a transformation in him too as a way to honor his love for her (while also working through the compounded trauma of her death, his mother’s and emotionally neglectful childhood). I wouldn’t even be mad about it ending with a panel of him putting flowers on her grave while his kid and wife call him back to the car or something and he shows genuine affection to them too.
