it's just easier to be vague because then I don't have to think about it logistically and make it lose all of its magic. Yes, I said magic.

Can I just say that I hate having to warn for character death? I totally support warning for noncon/abuse/anything that might be super triggery---aka things I probably wouldn't be writing in the first place, but character death to me should pack some sort of emotional punch and warning for it cushions that. I mean, I'd never lure someone into a fluff piece and then toss Dean in front of a bus, but I've always secretly wished fandom would universally decide to be okay with unannounced character deaths.
The violence warning always gives me headache because I can never decide if it's severe enough to warrant a warning. Like, if someone throws a punch do people want to be warned? Or if a vampire decides to eat a passerby? I usually just say "dark themes" and call it a day.
