Why I actively think Tyler will be redeemed and Wyler will be endgame based on actual clues and my knowledge about movie-making (and not just because I am a raging Tyler apologist)

This is a long one so strap yourselves in, hahaha

First of all, Hunter Doohan confirmed that Tyler’s feelings for Wednesday were real because he didn’t know who she was or her significance to Laurel’s plan when they first met at the Weathervane. But I’d go even further and claim that he didn’t know her significance during the entire first episode. If he knew, why would he ever offer her a ride out of Jericho and offer her the police file that inadvertently led to her cracking the case and bringing Laurel down (but the argument could also be made that that’s why he gave her that file, to bring his abuser down).

Wednesday makes it abundantly clear over the entire season that she has no interest in Xavier whatsoever and is constantly turned off/annoyed by his presence and antics. And this might just be me personally, but Xavier reminds me a lot of an ex of mine who was extremely entitled, selfish, immature and giving major incel vibes. I feel like Xavier is the type of guy who is nice to a girl only when he is interested and/or wants something. And the way he treated Bianca at the Rave’N (immediate no-no) and immediately goes into pity party-mode whenever someone rejects him just irks me. But again, that might just be me.

Now compare that with Wednesday’s reaction to Tyler’s antics. Wednesday is not someone who wants closeness in the beginning, in any shape or form. She is honest, direct and blunt, with no interest in pretending she enjoys something to be polite. Yet she doesn’t object when Tyler manhandles her in ep 2 (in the forest), she never denies her interest in him in ep 4, her first reaction to attending the Rave’N with Xavier is ‘a bullet to the head’ whilst her reaction to attending with Tyler is to immediately start looking for a dress in her closet. She often seeks out his company when she doesn’t really have a reason to, like when she went through the trouble of going all the way to the Weathervane to ask Tyler about the meetinghouse instead just asking anyone else working at Pilgrim World. These small details are to me the ‘signals’ Tyler was referring to. And I think he also just felt the energy between them, or maybe when you’re a 16 year old boy, most things can be interpreted as ‘signals’ if there’s an interest on his part. Or it was just straight up manipulation, as Hunter stated on his instragram. Either way, we can’t deny that Wednesday seems to enjoy Tyler’s presence more than Xavier’s.

Speaking of Wednesday, this is WEDNESDAY ADDAMS. People claim Xavier is the “healthier choice”, which might be true for any other character. But I feel like it’s very OOC for Wednesday to choose one above the other for being “healthier”, not that I believe Xavier would be much healthier. Wednesday went as far as canonically confirming that Tyler is her type BECAUSE he’s a serial killing monster.

The Addams’ Family have a long history of embracing all things weird and unconventional. Fester would be over the moon hearing that a Hyde of all outcasts (his young crush) has captured Wednesday’s heart. Gomez and Morticia would be more than happy to give Tyler all the love and security he never got from his own family. Morticia smiles fondly when Pugsley mentions missing being waterboarded by Wednesday, I don’t think she would have any trouble embracing a traumatized outcast submitted to abuse and torture and then forced to do someone else’s bidding against their will. She mama-bear instincts would kick up.

Hunter Doohan also said that one of the things he looks forward to exploring in season 2 (now confirmed, yay!) is Tyler’s relationship with the Hyde, pulling each side. Who is the real Tyler and who is the Hyde? Does he have active control over the Hyde’s actions or are they all controlled by his master? Remember, we technically have no idea what Tyler did of his own free will and what he was forced to say and do (including that last fight in ep 8). I imagine the Hyde being more of a split personality rather just than man vs monster. The question is if only the Hyde-personality had access to his monster form.

We see that Tyler rebelled against Laurel when he could, when he wasn’t actively forced to do something. For example when he slipped Wednesday the police file (if we believe that theory) and when he chose to keep Eugene alive (Laurel said “take care of it”, clearly meaning “kill him” but since she never used the word ‘kill’, I believe he saw his chance). He also keeps pointing Wednesday in the right direction, even when he probably wasn’t supposed to according to his master, like when he helped her find the meeting house, helped her break into Laurel’s home, chased her and Enid into the basement where they could find more clues.

Grooming, abuse, torture, manipulation, and mind control!!! Need I say more? Tyler is a true victim of his circumstances and society. We must admit that it was pretty easy for Laurel to sink her claws into him. Lonely, traumatized boy with one dead parent and one to emotionally constipated to raise him through his trauma, and here comes Laurel and offers him the truth about his mother in exchange for mommy kink sexual advances until she kidnaps him to torture as she pleases in a cave. She basically presented herself as the sexual version of his mother that Freud loved to say young boys were so vulnerable to. Of course this lonely boy would fall for her act. Laurel even described herself as a plant metaphor in episode 4: some carnivorous varieties use sexual trickery or deception. She then made him think this entire nefarious plan was about him getting revenge on the way outcasts treated his mother.

We see Tyler screaming out for help, subtly and literally, when he tells Wednesday that he wants to “get out of this hellhole town” and later when he’s screaming in the bathtub in ep 3.

The writers keep mentioning Wyler’s “primal attraction” and how Wednesday is drawn to Tyler’s dark side even from the start when she didn’t know what he was. And I truly believe he feels the same way, he is so smitten when she states she would dump piranhas in the swimming pool again. They are both attracted to the darker aspects of their personalities, whereas I feel like Xavier has this romanticized view of Wednesday in his head and when she disproves that by being her morbid, honest self, his first instinct is to whine and feel sorry for himself. He doesn’t embrace every part of her character.

Netflix makes Wyler a large part of their promotion of the show, going as far as pinning Wyler-positive comments on Instagram and making Wyler at the dance their thumbnail for the show on Netflix and hyping Hunter Doohan in general.

If you compare Wyler and Wavier scenes, they tend to play very soft music and use soft/warm lighting during the Wyler scenes. Wavier scenes, sometimes have this too, but never as prominent as with Wyler. From what I’ve seen with other media, that is usually foreshadowing of the producers’ larger plan.

I have a Filler Couple Theory! And that is that the couple that becomes canon in the middle of a show’s entire runtime is almost never canon by the time the show ends. There are exceptions, of course. But generally, shows tend to follow a similar format: couple 1 is introduced as an idea in season 1, they may or may not become canon but the tension is there, for whatever reason couple 2 becomes canon in season 2/3 to create drama and more tension before couple one becomes endgame in season 3/3 (example Stancy in ST, Benvi in NHIE). An exception to this rule is if couple one is a blowburn over several seasons without a love triangle (example: Peraltiago in B99). The writers of Wednesday have planned 4 seasons. They end season 1 with Wyler broken up, hint that Wavier might take more precedence in season 2, and yet still keeps hyping Wyler as much as they do. I think Wavier will be a distraction/filler for Wednesday as Tyler regains her trust and they build so much sexual tension.

So, this was long and kind of all over the place. But as Enid, I write in my voice. And I will admit that some of these points may be down to pure manipulation on Tyler’s part, especially the signals thing. But part of what I love about this show is the ambiguity, the moral grey areas, the way they make a point of embracing the dark side of humanity and loving the characters through it. Until the show canonically confirms that there is no hope for Tyler/Wyler, I will continue to ship it. And I want to add that my will to ship Wyler has nothing to do with who I would personally choose for myself. If given the choice, I would date Enid before my mind could form the phrase ‘toxic relationship’, and I’m very much one of those boring straight people. But as a romantic partner for a dark, morbid character like Wednesday Addams, I would choose Tyler any day.

Era difficile superare la story dell'anno scorso ma Matteo Pessina è il fuoriclasse assoluto.

Su quella mano sulla coscia posso scriverci 18 trattati.

Grazie, Royal Couple.🤍

The fact that the only interaction between families that has been shown to us is the whole Sheriff vs Gomez thing and that it ends with them talking about their children becoming closer is something that has been poking my brain for days

I kinda have a feeling that Xavier will ask Wednesday out on a date next season and for whatever reason she'll say yes but it'll just be the writers showing the audience how not right for Wednesday he is. It'll be the stereotypical dinner and a movie date where she's bored senseless and feeling the urge to stab herself with her steak knife . And then she'll be reminded of who took her on the perfect date because they actually understood her as a person and liked her dark weirdness 👉🏽👈🏽

As much as I believe they won't push for Xavier x Wednesday next season I can see this happening. Because as we have witnessed Xavier isn't one to give up even though he seemed to have gotten to terms with Wednesday's feelings at the end of the season. He will probably still try to get closer to her and change his tactic. And no matter what the writers have planned for Xavier, I think they will evolve the friendship between him and Wednesday, which leads her to not be able to flat-out say she doesn't want to go. And Xavier will probably go with give me a chance. And it's there both will realize it's not for them. Xavier seemed to be rich, he's an artist so I can totally see him going for a fancy dinner with candle light and nice music. And for Wednesday I think it will remind her too much of her parents, and she wants something else. To top it off the crypt date she had with Tyler will be very hard to beat as it was gathered towards her likes. That is where the biggest difference will come in because what we have seen from Xavier he doesn't really understand her, he has this version of her he thinks she is and his date will be based on that. Wednesday also is not someone who likes small talk while Xavier seems to like talking. It just wouldn't match, because the date would be kind of a disaster in the end. Because what Wednesday wants and what Xavier wants won't merge, it clashes instead.

Relationships is all about giving and taking. You have to give some to get some. But neither Wednesday or Xavier is there yet. Tyler on the other hand had figured out her likes and dislikes and learned that if he wanted something from her he needed to give her something she enjoyed. Not something standard, not the basic date but something that matched with who she was. And he had accepted who she was, he knew she liked darkness, spooky, macabre things and he liked that about her and he made the date the opposite of it because that is what she found horrifying. Xavier on the other hand would show her a horror movie and think she likes it because that's the stuff she likes, but Wednesday would find faults in the movies instead. She wouldn't necessary like it because it's already the view of the world she has. It's nothing new, nothing that makes her feel.

So if she went on a date with Xavier, she would compare it with Tyler's crypt date because it was tailored for her. So much attention and detail were put into it that nothing will come close afterward. And it will make Wednesday question what was real or not, because no one would pay so much attention to a date if they did not like them at least a little. The date will really showcase the difference between the two pairings and Xavier and Tyler as characters. One extremely caring and queen to details and one trying his best to be but can't reach where he wants to. Xavier has a vision of who she is while Tyler really looks at the person he has in front of him

Love it when I read a Hyde Tyler fic and his eyes flash yellow in response to his powers. Like even among the fandom that does love Tyler they look at those oversized bug eyes and go "hard pass"

Made me think of this!

[hajimemyace]

What do you mean Wednesday asked Xavier to the Rave'N thinking "If this was my chance to get up close and personal with a potential serial killer, how could I refuse?" and Tyler turns out to be the said serial killer at the end?

What do you mean Wednesday was being all defensive saying "I was forced to ask someone as an act of self-preservation" because she's thinking of how Tyler would feel about her going with Xavier? (that hesitant pause as well before saying 'Xavier')

What do you mean Wednesday didn't deny Tyler's assumptions when he said "I thought we liked each other" and only said "I'm just dealing with a lot right now"?

What do you mean Tyler smiled WHEN NO ONE WAS LOOKING when he thought Wednesday asked him to the Rave'N?

What do you mean Wednesday immediately went straight to her wardrobe looking for a dress when she saw Tyler waiting for her as her date? Why didn't she just straightforwardly tell him she wasn't going because let's be real, since when did this girl think twice of hurting other people's feelings (except Enid's) but she abandoned her mystery-investigation-trip with Eugene to go to the "stupid dance" with Tyler?

What do you mean Xavier told Wednesday about what Tyler did to him, and she told Tyler 'she would've taken it further' AND THEN danced with Tyler?

What do you mean Tyler didn't need to KISS Wednesday during their date at the crypt because how could THAT help Laurel? but he initiated a kiss and Wednesday-I-would-never-fall-in-love-Addams freaking leaned in?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN??? I DON'T UNDERSTAND??
