#so about the addams family#again#i think something to focus on is just like. how happy theyre supposed to be.#wednesday aside theyre doing some stuff with her and like it or not thats just the new characterization#but gomez and morticia will frequently ask each other are you unhappy#and the correct answer is yes#and you can see that as just a cutesy inversion but at the same time#they also visibly dont like when someone in their family or others around them are actually upset or unhappy#so the way i see that specifically is just. a lifetime of. i prefer the night and the moon. i prefer storms#and people talking down on those things. like oh storms are bad and nasty weather#oh you must be so unhappy the way you live etc#and so theyre just like ???? no what are you talking about. so its not even supposed to be some nod to the macabre#that the family is always depressed. i think theyre just being sarcastic. the world says what we like is gloomy and bad! so surely we must#be upset! morticia dear is your tea you like causing you great anguish? oh yes gomez dear absolutely miserable#anyway tedtalk etc#you say our lifestyle is wrong? that we should be sad? well if this joy i feel is sadness then brother i am downright desolate!
