The premature truncation of a romance arc between two characters on a television series by showing half the couple declaring love right before being pulled out of the story, then actually killing the other half of said couple before any reaction can be shown to confirm reciprocation.

The now officially canon pairing between Dean and Castiel from Supernatural as of November fifth. It was said that the sheer homosexual energy produced was enough to force Putin to resign and Biden to win the election. We did it gays.
Person one: Can you believe that Supernatural made Destiel canon only to kill off Cas 2 minutes later?
Person two: They really sent him to super mega hell. 'Bury your gays' on speed run
