"On September 5, a little after midnight, Death-Cast calls Mateo Torrez and Rufus Emeterio to give them some bad news: They’re going to die today. Mateo and Rufus are total strangers, but, for different reasons, they’re both looking to make a new friend on their End Day. The good news: There’s an app for that. It’s called the Last Friend, and through it, Rufus and Mateo are about to meet up for one last great adventure—to live a lifetime in a single day."

- The description of "They Both Die at the End" by Adam Silvera

# data[].attributes.body
Rufus was a more relatable character, meaning that he questioned why they had to die on that certain day, not knowing or caring enough to live to the fullest, overall, he was a well-written character.

# data[].attributes.body
Some parts were underwhelming & cringe-worthy. Besides that, I enjoyed the amount of work put into describing one day.

# data[].attributes.body
Mateo & Rufus get a call from the Death-Cast saying that they will die. Because of this, they go on the Last Friend app & find each other. They try to live a lifetime in a day, though they end up wasting time worrying about their death. In the end, Mateo dies first, & Rufus dies while distracted, thinking about Mateo.

# data[].attributes.body
They will die at the end (Mateo & Rufus) so they try to find things that they can relate to. The only reason why they met is that there’s a site for people who will die on a certain day (known as deckers). The app was filled with deckers & non-deckers. The non-deckers were shown to be perverted & unlikeable. When Rufus & Mateo met, it was a small chance, & they couldn’t waste any more time on their last day. This starts a better plot than “They will die today”

I feel this is important to the story because it shows the difference between Rufus & Mateo. Rufus acts as though Mateo’s actions are groundbreaking due to the setting Rufus grew up in after his family died.

They don't know how or why, but it's inevitable.
They try to live their lives to the fullest, but they are still worried about dying before the other.

I feel this relates to Rufus. No matter how stressed he is from living the last day of his life, people still held his flaws against him.
