THIS.
This is EVERYTHING to me.
Please give this analysis a read and reblog because it is one of the best I've seen, especially for how short it is! I know nobody's a fan of really really reeeeeeeeally long text analysis stuff like what I usually reblog, so take this as a nice little refresher.
Besides we all love WOY angst don't we fellas?
So I was rewatching WOY again, and I realized something during The Ball episode (S1 Ep13b).
There’s probably a post somewhere years ago pointing this out, but idc—I want to, "put that passion on the paper!"
Spoilers btw!
We all know why Wander helps, “The helper seeks to help because he knows what it is like to be helpless” (The Wanders, S2 Ep4a). He went through something so life-changing—most likely traumatic—that it ironically helped him become the Wander we know and love.
Now during The Ball episode (S1 Ep13b) after Beeza explains how this doomsday is basically routine at this point and before they all board the ship, Wander gives a speech:
“Y'all have put so much work into this pretty little planet. Don't you want to try and save it? I know you're scared of Buster, but if you keep running, that's all you're ever gonna be doing! You have a chance to change that. You just have to turn and face your problems head-on!”
Tumblr media
“…but if you keep running, that's all you're ever gonna be doing! You have a chance to change that.”
He says that while looking at his hat longingly as if this situation reminded him of a bad memory.
I genuinely believe Wander started out as fearful.
I believe he ran away and hid at the first sign of danger when he was much younger, immature and inexperienced because he didn’t have a chance to save or defend what he had. He lost something very dear and precious to him—whether that be his family or his home-planet (or both), we may never know.
However, how he reacted to those bouncing phantom mimes in The Heebie Jeebies episode (S2 Ep19b) proves my point. Wander’s first instinct when encountering danger or something scary is to scream, run away and/or hide—and at times freeze in place.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Usually he’s able to override that stress response throughout the show if there’s someone needing help, “When I see someone who’s a-needin’, I just gotta help!” (The Fugitives, S1 Ep2b). Take the episode The Pet (S1 Ep4) as an example of this.
Tumblr media
Wander nervously searches the ship for anyone alive only to encounter an arachnomorph he lovingly christened Captain Tim. His first reaction is to scream, and it doesn’t sound like an excited scream either.
Tumblr media
Only after he gets tackled does he collect himself and switches gears from being afraid to being ready to help because he changed how he looked at the creature.
At first, he saw Captain Time as this terrifying monster (he even admits to Sylvia that he knew Captain Tim is dangerous later in the episode, twice) before almost immediately doing a 180 degree and choosing to see Captain Tim as an abandoned pet that needs tender love and care.
Tumblr media
It's not just this episode either. The Greatest (S1 Ep1a) shows how scared he is of Lord Hater when they first officially meet until he chooses to—not only help the planet's residences—but to also learn more about Hater so he can help him later down the line.
The Search for Captain Tim (S2 Ep19a) is another example when he shows up with a wanted flyer knowing full well that the creature is carnivorous and remembering what Captain Tim tried to do to him.
He's able to get through his fear if it means helping someone in the process.
We also know that Wander seems obsessed with the idea of helping others to an alarming and unhealthy degree. Being unable to not help someone in need gives him anxiety that builds up over a short amount of time until he can’t take it anymore and gives into his immense desire to help (The Fugitives, S1 Ep2b).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even when he was sick during The Sick Day (S2 Ep20a), he still tries to help when it impedes on his own health and well-being.
Since he’s over 1000 years old, he most likely lost that chance to rewrite or make amends with what he originally went through that made him feel helpless in the first place—and I wouldn’t doubt it if he regrets it deep down or thinks bringing up his past is unimportant since nothing can be done anymore.
Heck, Sylvia calls him, “a man of mystery,” in The Waste of Time (S2 Ep17b) which later when they both successfully end the time loop it erases that interaction from existence. Wander doesn't disclose what exactly happened to him to be helpless in The Wanders (S2 Ep4a).
He chooses not to go into detail about his past.
Going back to The Ball (S1 13b) episode, he doesn’t just give a speech and tries to help because that's the right thing to do. He tries to help because he sees how the Ballzarians were choosing to lose their chance by willfully fleeing from their home-planets because of Buster, and Wander could not accept that.
"Whew! I wouldn't want someone else to go through what I went through" (The Wanders, S2 Ep4a).
He needed to help them because he himself was not helped.
Having to watch someone else go through the same experience was devastating for him. That's why he took control of the ship and crashed landed it on Buster.
Unlike the Ballzarians, I believe he did not have anyone in his life to help him when he was helpless, nor provide the opportunity to make a change in his circumstances.
He had to become his own helper.
In The Wanders episode (S2 Ep4a) when Sylvia finds the last Wander to complete himself again, the little Wander is terrified and cowering in the corner. He doesn't trust her until she reassures him, "It's okay, I won't hurt you." Wander was used to not receiving help. Sylvia was the first person who—not only reciprocated that same love and care he tends to show towards everyone—but also the first person to stay by his side afterwards. She became his new home.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
With all this said, I believe he started out as a coward, then became a stereotypical hero, until finally being transformed into the wandering helpy helperson we know and love today.
Or I'm reading waaaaaaay too much into a silly little cartoon about helping others and self-improvement from a decade ago idk tHat’S jUst a tHeoRY lmao
Anyways, thank y’all for coming to my TedTalk—expect more WOY art in the near future! 👋🧡

It almost hurts, how much I love you, but I'll endure for you. You're the one that even allowed me to feel your pulse under my palms. I need you so badly, I need you to be utterly and completely mine. Mine mine mine. Please just be mine, or I'll have to make you mine but I'm sure it'll be fine either way, right? That's why you don't mind my fingernails cutting into the soft flesh of your throat, right? Because I love you and I know you love me too. I just know it, I can feel it in the way you're gripping my wrists so tightly and scratching my arms, I just know it's out of all your merciful love.
So Pretty. Your tears are so so pretty, hehe I think your crying face is the prettiest. It's so beautiful, I wish I could keep this image in front of me forever, because you're so happy aren't you? so happy that we can finally be together forever that you graced my eyes with such a beautiful expression.
Don't worry, nothing will tear us apart anymore because I love you too much. I can't stand the thought of you being away, even if it's just for a moment. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you so much so don't ever leave me, okay?
Ah- I'm so sorry, please forgive me for dirtying you with such an ugly face like mine and such vile tears from my eyes but bear with it for just a little while longer. Just until we're finally one, please for me, just this once please. Just a little bit longer and maybe you'll even get those pretty marks around your neck again and they'll even last forever this time!
I can feel your adorable scratching get weaker and we're almost over and I'll finally be blessed with you being tied forever with such a disgusting existence.
But I know you'll forgive me because we love each other so much, right?
I love you.

Current status: 9 years after a straight writer decided to make one of the most high profile X-Men canonically gay for the headlines rather than because he had any interest whatsoever in examining the implications he was obliviously writing into his oh so hilarious coming out narrative, I still definitely have no issues with any of this whatsoever, and this is not at all a source of my frequent "hahaha I love when non-marginalized writers blatantly do 'representation' for the clout and not because they actually have any interest in that character or their stories."
I'm actually extremely normal about this, as you can see.

@ratwhsprs liked this thang for a starter!
"Otis!" Coyote all but screamed, they were looking particularly chipper tonight. Their clothes had been freshly cleaned and the weather was nice and warm. As frustrating as it was that the sun set late and rose early, it was nice to feel a little warmer than tepid. These had been some good nights. "This weather must suck for you, huh? When's the last time anybody took you out for dinner? I'm bored and have a little extra cash! I'll cover you!" They weren't sure if his Domitor would be alright with such a thing, but they were sure they were doing him a favor.
Along with it, he was one of the very few Ghouls they hadn't had some bizarre incident that resulted in death or bodily injury. They were starting to gain a little more confidence just hanging around others at this rate. Maybe they weren't carrying some thrall-killing curse with them! "You just pick a place and I'll take you there! I got all night!"
