I think the word I'm looking for is closure. Readers love it, maybe even need it. But it's more than that here, I think; the way Jeremy was written (and this may have been unintentional), I actually genuinely developed a vested interest in him as a reader. I want that sweet cinnamon roll to be okay. And to put my mind at ease, I would appreciate it so much if you could add another part for him. You know like that extra scene at the end of a movie, after the resolution and the credits? Something like that :)
