How do you want it to end up?

[jtb]

This is not *The Best or Worst Ways it Could End Up*, it's just what people want to happen to Bauds, Quags, Snicket, and Olaf and others.

[twistedbrain]

Bauds: Wind up with Lemony
Quags: Why, with the Bauds!(Particularly, Klaus and Izzy, and Vi and Quigley. )
Snicket: Still in hiding
Olaf: Ironic fire death

[thistledown]

I know this sounds terrible but...
Violet: dead
Klaus: alive
Sunny: alive
Beatrice and Bertrand (possible parents): one alive
Snicket: finds bauds because he has been one step behind them this whole time...maybe reunite with beatrice who miraculously comes back to life...
Olaf: dies a noble person but killed Violet
Bauds and Snicket mourn for Violet, but besides that they move in together, see Quagmires (if quigley isn't a quisling)...etc...sounds too flowery, so it will probably all be wrong! Aah well! ;D

[leprechaun]

Baudelaires: Alive and proven innocent
Snicket: Alive and proven innocent
Beatrice: Dead
Count Olaf: Dead
Mr. Poe: Get rid of the cough.

Olaf: Almost became noble but was enflamed on seeing Beatrice and the two killed eachother.
Lemony: Proven innocent by the Snicket File/Sugar bowl/Dewey's library.
Bauds: Wounded by the storm and temporarily arrested, and in deep mourning for everyone but safe and with Lemony.
Quags: Attacked and brought down upon the ocean where they caught cold and were battered, but they are being nursed back to health in the end.
Fiona+Fernald: died bringing down the sinister duo who started one last fire and paid for it.
I think that's pretty much it. It'll never happen though.

[04nshe]

Bauds:Are noble still on the run.
quags:stay with the bauds a friends and quigley ends up wih Violet
fiona: stay with klaus saying she will never leave him
olaf:ironic fire death
lemony: they hear his name and go to investigate
bauds parents: 1 survives

[Jacques the Environmentalist]

Who hears Lemony's name and goes to investigate? The Bauds or the police?

[Zavi]

First off, kill off Sunny. Now I'm happy.

If I wrote the series, the Baudelaires wouldn't exactly be settled down but they wouldn't be on the run either. Quigley and Violet can establish a good relationship and screw Klaus's love life. He can wait. Olaf would probably be dead, and the Baudelaires and Quagmires would feel a little bit bad about it. Except Violet, because there would be major Violaf if I could choose the series' ending.

But if you're worrying about plot, I'd spoil the end of my fanfiction. =^^=

Lemony wouldn't really be involved, he is the narrator, after all. He'd just make this weirdo speech about concluding the Baudelaire research. Maybe the Baudelaires would hear his mention, but they wouldn't be together much.

[Jacques the Environmentalist]

Why do you hate Sunny?
Violaf=ew.

[PJ]

Hmmm.

As The End progresses, Olaf's character is deepened, and we realise that he isn't JUST a greedy criminal. Perhaps the moral ambiguity from Chapter Nine of TPP will be further explored.

Just as Olaf becomes "gooder", so will the Baudelaires become more and more confused about their actions, and will begin to doubt morals, and whether they are useful or not. The whole "There truly are no noble people" thing.

As for the ending...

Well, I've always believed that Beatrice is the Baudmum, so she will be the surviving parent, and there will be a happy reunion. Also, Lemony arrives, somehow.

Then, something happens, and Beatrice dies, at Olaf's hands. The Baudelaires, enraged, let Olaf die (like, he's hanging off a cliff, and they refuse to help him up, or lift a log that is pinning him down in a burning building, or something), or perhaps even kill him outright.

Lemony is appalled, and the Baudelaires flee the scene, never to be seen again, and Lemony is left to mourn Beatrice, and he begins to write the Series of Unfortuante Events. Or finish them off. Or something.

[The World Is Quiet Here]

Bauds: Alive, Noble and revive VFD with the Quags help, they use their fortunes to create safe places once more.
WWHBNB: Dead
MWBBNH Dead
Olaf: Currently reforming and becoming more Noble
Lemony: After assisting Bauds & Quags begins researching his next book

Mr. Poe's dead

I really liked that thing about olaf killing beatrice (who I think was the surviving parent in the snowman in the UA) and the bauds killing him and lemony beginning to write the series of unfortunate evnts.

[Tigerclaw can drive a car :B]

Violet: gives her life to save her friends but miraculasly comes back at the end
Klaus: learns to climb a palm tree(and it's not easy. I know from experiance)
Sunny: Saves Quigly from food poisoning
Olaf: becomes noble and in all his glory dies.
Carmelita: shuts up

[Jacques the Environmentalist]

Those last 3 endings seem appealing.
It would be interesting if VFD began gathering up the ashes so to speak and rebuilding with Olaf labelled a work in progress.
