This poll is really interesting. I have to assume it was prompted by a certain HP fic that tears people's hearts out.

Most of the time, I'd like to know if a character dies. However, if there's ssupposed to be some suspense on whether or not it will happen, I'd rather not know because that would ruin the ending for me.

Also - currently Smallville is my primary fandom, with Buffy and Harry Potter being ones I'm interested in.
