Do we have a trope that is similar to Settle for Sibling, but instead of settling for Sibling B because Sibling A is not interested, the character dates/marriaries/bethroths Sibling A and only ends up with Sibling B after Sibling A dies? For example, in The Patriot, Mel Gibson's character ends up getting married to the sister of his deceased wife.
Of should I simply use the Settle for Sibling trope and explain in the notes how it is different from the standard?
