Munday: 24 hours
Your character has just been informed they have 24 hours left to live, reason for death up to you.
How do they react to this? Do they try and fight their fate? Accept it calmly? Burst into tears? Quickly call all loved ones together for a party? Call up old enemies and try to patch things up one last time? What is your character like in the face of certain death? What plans, if any, do they make for their funeral?
Bonus points for writing their goodbye note (if there is one) IC and sharing it
Prue would react by being just-visibly irritated that she had so much time when there is no upside to fighting a sure fate. Any scenario in which she isn't killed nearly instantly in a demon fight or succumbs at a normal mortal rate to some mortal injury or illness -- well, any other scenario pretty much means "magic's exposure, caught by mortals!" and under those circumstances, where a greater good is served by her NOT fighting fate, she's going to want things ended quickly, to spare her sisters and herself the long wrenching good bye.
She's brave, for her sisters, for the wider magical community she'd be protecting, but internally, along with the longing to see everyone she's missed on the other side, there would be anger -- futile ragey anger at the sheer unfairness that her life of nearly unending sacrifice has to end this way and so very soon.
Her funeral... It's established, in canon, that she wrote a will, so the idea that she had some general thoughts on what her funeral would be like, given that she's felt her own death at least thrice, rings true. But any more than that, and it would ignore that she doesn't want to accept her fate in the abstract. And she isn't Piper, almost compulsively overplanning.
To Piper and Phoebe:
Two very wise girls once told me that true sacrifices are made because of the kind of person doing the sacrificing, not who the receipients are. I would be lying if I didn't acknowledge that I am partly doing this for you, but I know you both understand that I'm also doing it for the greater good. I've thought a lot about that philosophy question, Phoebe, and after what we've seen this last year, I want to change the premise.
If my death means you two AND the rest of good magic stay safe, then that's the choice I'd make. Have made, if you're reading this. And that's because of who I am, who I've always been. I don't want to die, but I couldn't live knowing I hadn't kept you safe.
I love you both so much. It's been the role of lifetime, being your big sister. Please don't mourn. Just ... live. Live, and in like seventy years, you can tell me everything.
