I cant deal with zootopia sadness for some reason... I can deal with it in any other story or media of any type but zootopia sadness messes me up.



I remember the last time i ever dived into any sad zootopia stuff... it was a fic i read like a year or more ago... It was about nick and judy on a huge case where the entire city was in danger... and how they fell in love during it. I forget the premise exactly but the only way to save the city was for judy to turn back time and with her being the only person with memories of the future she is to go stop it from even beginning in the first place. So in her 9 year old form she realizes that the person is insane even back then and there is no way of stopping him other than killing him... She kills him and being judy hopps turns her self in and spends the next 15 years in prison. She gets out, cant get a job because shes a convicted murder, her family disowns her, nick doesnt know her, so the only choice she has at surviving is... prostitution, for 5 years she gets by and finally lands a proper job for a year or so until her identity is found out and she is fired. At the end of her mental rope she runs off into the night and unconsciously seeks out the only person on her mind. Nick. She sees him standing in the rain and hides behind a dumpster steadying her self. But before she can muster the courage to make contact she sees a female fox carrying a young child approach him. The 2 kiss and the reality of the situation hits her (Nick is happily married with a family) and she snaps. Soaked to the bone she runs through the rain as fast as she could, she runs and runs until she runs out of gas as she enters tundra town. Exhausted mentally and physically she takes off all her clothes and while soaking wet, lies down in a pile of snow and gives up. No energy left to move or even cry she just lets the cold and darkness take her while she whispers "i... love you... nick... for...ever." over and over. A thin street cop version of clawhouser finds her body a few weeks later melting out of the snow and calls it in.



This story synopsis is VASTLY shortened ... the actual story is hundreds of thousands of words long. and spanned many chapters with different arcs. So when i spent a week reading it and got to the end that shit tore me up. I mean it MESSED ME UP for WEEKS! to the point where i had to swear off sad and angst in my zootopia diet. And for the life of me i cant remember the name of that fic ... i think its my brain trying to block it out to protect me.
