In the Unlikely Event of my Death · 9:18pm Aug 29th, 2014
... You know, it's just occurred to me I could die at any moment. It's not likely, but it could happen. So this got me to thinking "What happens to my stories and whatnot if I die prematurely?" which I'll admit is an odd thing to be thinking of, but this is what happens at 3 AM with nothing to do. You start pondering some strange things that are entirely irrelevant - such as whether cowboys or pirates would win in a fight (it's still undecided, but I lean toward cowboys).
So yeah - in the event of my death, I have no clue what would happen to these stories, nor how any of you would know I was gone. I've been racking my brain to think of some sort of fail safe for a way to find out if I'm dead - but then what? This account remains unchanged, and only I have the password for it in my head. And all of my stories would be left unfinished, and that just straight up sucks for all involved.
Maybe a murderer would allow me one day to finish writing stories for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Or maybe that would get me killed faster. If ever I'm murdered by an axe-wielding maniac in a Fluttershy hoodie, I'm sure they'll understand... or would decide my choice of best pony is not to their liking and murder me faster. Either way, the thought of Jason Voorhees whistling "This Day Aria" as he brutally murders me and admires my choice in pony merchandise is somewhat humorous, in a morose way. The thought of leaving my stories, however, saddens me a little.
In short: I'm probably not going to die. Not anytime soon at least. But if I am left dead on the streets with a knife in my head or come down with the Spanish Flu, I apologise in advance for not being able to write more and any inconvenience my mortality may otherwise cause.
