Enid is indeed alive. The storylines haven't depicted her demise yet. Usually, characters' fates change based on the plot developments, but so far, she's still part of the comic world.
"Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China" article 20 provides for the situation of justifiable self-defense. According to this article, in order to prevent the country, the public interest, the personal, property and other rights of the person or others from being violated, an act taken to stop the illegal violation and causing damage to the person who violated the law is considered justifiable defense and shall not be subject to criminal responsibility. This means that under legal circumstances, individuals can take necessary actions to protect their own or the rights and interests of others without incurring criminal responsibility. However, if self-defense clearly exceeded the necessary limits and caused significant damage, criminal responsibility may be incurred. In addition, defensive actions taken in the context of violent crimes that seriously endanger personal safety, even if they cause casualties to the wrongdoer, are not considered excessive self-defense and are not subject to criminal responsibility.
Definitely fiction. Upton Sinclair used fictional characters and events in 'The Jungle' to highlight and expose the harsh realities of the industry at that time.
The relationship could be developed through shared experiences. For example, they could fight side by side against a common enemy, which builds trust. Then, small moments of kindness, like Carl sharing his food with Enid or Enid patching up Carl's wounds, can deepen their emotional bond. Eventually, this leads to their physical relationship as their feelings reach a boiling point.
Another theme is mystery - solving. Since Wednesday has a penchant for the macabre and Enid is always up for an adventure, fanfictions often put them in situations where they have to solve a mystery. It could be something related to the school's dark secrets or a strange occurrence in the town.
I also like 'The Midnight Adventure'. It's a story where Wednesday and Enid embark on an unexpected adventure in the middle of the night. The descriptions of their emotions and interactions are really vivid, and it gives a fresh perspective on their bond outside of the usual school setting.
