Destieled 

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.

See also: Desti-edging (Urban Dictionary)

See also: Schrödinger's Ship - when it's a canon-romantic couple due to overwhelming use of romance tropes and a love declaration from half the ship, but also left "open to interpretation" by viewers who want to see it as platonic because the writer(s) deliberately left it ambiguous by removing/killing the couple before the other half can respond to said love declaration and confirm reciprocation.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
