#wednesdays child’s full off woe

[grimreaperschild]

guitar practice

summary: wednesday always seems to put someone or something above you, luckily her roommate is always there to pick up the pieces

warnings: angst

a/n: i might make this into a series i’ve got some good ideas, thank you for all the support on my last post !

“wednesdays child is full of woe” you supposed that should be her mantra as you lock eyes over the top of your guitar, your not sure when your gothic girlfriend started pulling away but recently she’d been spending more and more time investigating with tyler galpin you haven’t spent time in your studio together in months her usually ditching your practice time in favour of gallivanting around the woods but not today.

today she sits dutifully at your side as you tune your beloved instrument, eyes never leaving the side of your face it’s starting to get difficult to hide the blush creeping up your neck so before you’ve even thought about what your doing you turn “do i have something on my face?” inwardly cringing as it comes out harsher than intended, she hums ignoring your last statement “would you accompany me to the weathervane after practice? i’d like to” she sucks air in through her teeth narrowing her eyes “i’d like to take you on, a date.” she nods her head seeming satisfied with herself.

you freeze a lopsided grin stretching across your face “id love to nes” she hums in response again stretching out her fingers to meet yours, still on the tuning pegs she ghosts her fingers up your arm and bumps your cheek with her knuckles affectionately “my investigation has hit a wall and i suppose it has been a while since we had some time together” you freeze again, but this time not in a good way heat and anger flush through you at the statement “ah so you only want to spend time with me when you’ve got nothing else to do?” she removes her hand quickly “y/n we have spoken about how important my investigation is, must you spend the time i give you acting like a spoilt child” you sit stunned at her words

anger.

betrayal?

hurt ?

they all blend together as you stand your guitar falling out of your lap and onto the floor with a painfully loud clatter, tears blur your vision as you look at her passive face unblinking, no, uncaring “really wednesday im a spoilt child for wanting you to spend time with your girlfriend? you think i enjoy you running off with tyler all the time? no. but i try to trust you no matter what my head tells me” your voice breaks and you take a sharp breath in refusing to let her see you break.

you take a step back not breaking eye contact with her

“must you be so dramatic y/n?”

you don’t dignify her with an answer taking another step, she still hasn’t moved you let out a dry chuckle “let me know when i move up your list of priorities” with that you turn on your heel and all but sprint from the room tears rolling down your cheeks.

your not sure where your legs are bringing you until your in front of a familiar dorm wednesday and enid’s room, enid. you knock quickly hearing the pop music pause the door swings open revealing the bubbly werwolf you watch her face brighten then fall at the sight of you, throwing yourself into her arms you choke out a sob her arms instantly coming around you rubbing soothing circles in your back “y/n what happened, talk to me comon let’s get you inside” walking backwards not breaking the hug she flings the door shut.

you rush though the explanation as she picks out one of her biggest hoodies for you to change into, your sat on her bed by the time she finally decides what clothes to give you “she doesn’t deserve you n/n” enid sighs as she pads over to you wiping at your tear stained cheeks with her thumbs “your staying with me tonight i don’t want you feeling like this alone get changed and get into bed” you comply happily and when you come out of the bathroom sporting the pink fluffy sweatshirt and pink mini shorts she cheers and opens her arms wide for you, you settle against her tucking your head under her chin and for a second you think maybe tyler can have wednesday if this is how it’s going to stay.

WIP Wednesday for my Unnamed FC5 Omegaverse WIP, Moodboard for my Doki Doki Literature Club WIP You Make My Heart Go Doki Doki Literature Club!, Last Lines for my Wednesday WIP Word Of Woe and a picrew of Silva during Christmas. Enjoy under the cut:

Another snippet for the FC5 Omegaverse WIP, with Silva trying to live her life in relative peace as a junior deputy and contributing member to society. And yet she can't even have that at a public barbecue when Eden's Gate crash it. Read below: [CW: Minor subtle discrimination in the context of Alpha/Beta/Omega dynamics, mostly towards Beta dynamics like Silva here (there's more in the full scene but here it's just like maybe once, or two if you count John ignoring Silva's obvious signs of 'leave me alone'. Also John harassing Silva, but what else is new]:

Silva really just wanted to fill up her plate with some nutritional food in peace and without an alpha poking his nose into her business for whatever reason.

She was unsure what his game was; could he be trying to determine if she was an omega? She understood that some omegas took a variation of suppressants that masked their scent as similar to betas, if only to deter certain alphas.

Although the suppressants were often effective, it didn't take much to discern the difference between an omega using suppressants and a regular beta. A beta's scent was far stronger than that of a suppressant's scent, though Silva guessed that wasn't common knowledge.

That or she had a better sense of smell than most betas. Which she didn't disqualify as an option.

"Invited by friends," Silva answered curtly, gesturing to where she saw her co-workers last, "Thought I'd socialize a bit."

His scent was throwing her off. Not because it was like an oregano herb, unlike the homely, comforting scent of basil and parsley that Paul had, but because he seemed familiar. Intrusive as well.

"Funny you should say that," the alpha, John, replied with a confident grin, "I've seen you avoiding more people than talking to them."

She glanced into his blue eyes; his smug glint irked her. She rolled her eyes as she replied, "That's because I'm done socializing."

She moved down, away from the alpha, and reached for the chicken ceasar salad to add to her plate; to compliment the chops that were already present. As she began topping it, her unwanted and persistent conversationalist filled the gap between them and asked, "So what is it you do around here?"

Silva's brows knitted together as she gave him an annoyed glance, stating, "I made it very clear I was done talking."

John chuckled, "No need to be so tart, my dear. Besides, I think you do want to talk."

Silva paused when she heard what he said; there was a tone within his words that rung sharply in her head, a growl that commanded obedience. To an omega, it'd be something to fear or respect; an effective deterrent towards refutes. To her though, it was something that grated at her nerves, like a man-child loudly demanding he get his way.

But it also sounded so damn familiar.

She looked at him with a burning glare that seemed to surprise him; like he hadn't prepared for his alpha voice to fail.

"I would be inclined to talk if I choose to," Silva asserted, adding, "And if you use that voice of yours on me again, you will regret it."

Despite the warning, John seemed more intrigued than anything else, putting on a friendly smile. Which bothered Silva immensely.

Her dissatisfaction only furthered when he replied, "My apologies. I wasn't too sure if you were actually a beta. I'm sure you're aware how omegas believe they have to hide themselves with your scents... a shame really."

Silva gazed at John with a stoic expression that contradicted with the bafflement she felt. One moment he was acting like a persistent sleaze and the next he's suddenly chummy with her after finding out that, yes, she is in fact, a beta.

She chose the last of her toppings for the chicken ceasar salad before walking away from him. Silva didn't grace him with a goodbye, just left him to fill up his plate.

However, in spite of this, he persisted in pestering her.

"Hold on now, you still haven't answered my question," he unhelpfully informed her as he followed after her.

Silva gripped the cutlery in her hand, repeating the mantra, It's illegal to kill a person without reasonable cause. It's illegal to kill a person without reasonable cause. It's illegal to kill-

It wasn't as helpful as she thought it would be.

[Silva to John, in some other AU probably: "In all timelines. In all possibilities. Only you... can show me how fucking annoying a person can be." If anyone understands this edited reference, I'll let you know I liked the season. Didn't love it, but it was still very good despite the high expectations]

Last Line for Word Of Woe, which is a WIP for Wednesday post-Season 1 set in the Life, Despair & Monsters series, where Wednesday Addams returns to Nevermore to unravel a new mystery; who the in the Nine Hells is bold enough to stalk her? Here she sees the introduction of Nevermore's new botany teacher:

When the teacher entered, Wednesday noted his appearance; he wore a dark blue suit that would have been better for a Gala than a school, with his dark hair and eyes, short stature, and the ridiculous Breton cap he adorned on his head didn't help her judgement of him. There was a skip in his step, with a jolly smile that sickened Wednesday.

He also held a cane in his hand, the handle like a bulbous doorknob. She wondered if he's ever caved in a skull with that.

However, her eyes narrowed when she realized something; she's seen him before. Earlier in the courtyard, playing what she presumed to be chess with a crowd of students around him and his opponent.

Moodboard for You Make My Heart Go Doki Doki Literature Club! is a WIP for DDLC, where Monika and her friends find themselves in the real world, with only Monika able to remember the things she did while in the game, and as a result the guilt too. She also gets used to actually living and while she does want to do just that, she can't help but notice a few... contradictions to her new reality.

And below is the first ever picrew of Silva Omar. It... certainly is a close encapsulation of how I picture Silva (second to her faceclaim Mina El Hammani). Although she usually has her hair done up in one braid tail that stays behind her. But this is as close as I could get to her hair undone. Here she is attempting to commit to the Christmas joy. Could either be celebrating at Elsa's lodge (which would explain the undone hair (plus the sweater) as Silva didn't do up her hair until after Persephone's death...) or at a co-workers home or something akin to that for a party (which would explain the false joy and tired look as Silva is generally like that because of her insomnia and night terrors plus putting up a front to hide her grief for this particular month... though post-Persephone's death, Silva would be spending her time alone at her residence because, well, this is the month her sister die and Christmas is literally Elsa's birthday so...). Anyway image below:

Gone off with the sunrise Reno never felt so slow Wednesday's child with a rented ride And a head that's full of woe

[your-favorite-god]

Vita nostra aeterna pt 1

Wednesday's child is full of woe, ep 1

I’m not sure whose twisted idea it was to put hundreds of adolescents in underfunded schools run by people whose dreams were crushed years ago… but I admire the sadism. 

A monochromatic girl walked the halls of a seemingly normal high school, walking swiftly when she turned and pulled open a locker. Out falls her younger brother, Pugsley.

 “ I want names.”

‘I don't know who they were, honest! It happened so fast…”, the boy panics. He didn't want to witness the outcome of whatever his sister did. 

“Pugsley, emotion equals weakness. Pull yourself together.” As her brother continued to squirm and whimper Wednesday tried to start a sentence but was rudely interrupted. Images of what had happened before, her head thrown back as she saw the horrid jocks jeering at her little brother while they tormented him. “Wednesday?”

I’m not about to confess to my brother that I’ve recently been plagued by visions. They come on without warning and feel like electroshock therapy, but without the satisfying afterburn. 

“Leave this to me”,  Wednesday says as she promptly walks away. “Wednesday? What are you gonna do?” Pugsley questions, now free from his restraints. 

“What I do best.”

Endears POV:

“Wednesday, you know I always love your company. But is now the time? I was just about to tell Christina what happened at that gathering her precious Jonathan attended before class started”

She stares at me with a bag of piranhas in hand,” Cara, do you still have the peroxyacetic acid you made?” I look at her with a raised brow, “Of course I do, why?”. “Those fools hog-tied Pugsley and shoved him in his locker. I intend to teach them a lesson.” 

I can see how this might be confusing for you, allow me to briefly explain. Wednesday Addams is what most would call my best friend. 

Soulmate.

Shush ma morelle, anyways, we met a decade ago in the woods. She intruded upon my home and I found her very cute. So I decided to stay with her, my adorable little human. I came with her to her home and have continued to live with her family. I've even joined her in this boring little hovel named school. Or Should I say schools, we’ve been to many. Wednesday has this horrible habit of getting caught. 

It’s more satisfying to watch the looks on my victims' faces. 

As you can see, Wednesday has no appreciation for subtlety. But we’re just getting to the fun part, so let us get back to it. 

“Well then, allow me to raise you a better idea. Thallium in the principal's coffee. I’d prefer to avoid life on the run for now.” Wednesday pauses for a second, then looks at me with her version of loving eyes. “Brilliant mi vida, as always.” 

And off we went.

Non, Je ne regrette rien - Edith Piaf | Wednesday Soundtrack | Wednesday drops piranhas in the pool

We had stepped through the doors of the practice room as I heard the jocks mutter to themselves, 

“ Yo Dalton look, pigsleys sister and her weird ass friend. Hey, freaks! This is a closed practice!” 

Wednesday leveled them with her usual murderous stare as she spoke,” The only person that gets to torture my brother is me.” 

Nothing delighted me more than the fear on everyone's faces as she dropped the bag of piranhas into the pool, blood seeping into the normally crystal-blue chlorine-filled water. And that is how we landed ourselves here. In the Addams family car with Wednesday's parents, Morticia and Gomez. They were singing In Dreams as they doted on one another, Wednesday was brooding next to me. Unsatisfied with being shipped away to her parents' former school. “Darling, how long do you intend on giving us the cold shoulder?” Morticia spoke as Gomez continued to kiss her arm and neck. 

“Lurch, please remind my parents that I’m no longer speaking to them,” Wednesday replies, making me grin. I love it when she's like this, all petulant and ruffled, most of the time it means I’ll get to play around while she's busy thinking and sulking.  Her mother hums as her father tries to persuade his daughter,” I promise you, my little viper, you will love Nevermore. Won’t she, Tish?”  “Of course. It’s the perfect school for her. For them both really.” This irks Wednesday as she replies, “ Why? Because it was the perfect school for you? I have no interest in following in your footsteps. Becoming captain of the fencing team, Queen of the dark prom, president of the seance society.” Morticia looks at Wednesday with a serene face, always ever so calm and poised. “I merely meant that finally, you will be among peers who understand you. Maybe you’ll even make some friends.” Gomez looks at Wednesday with his signature grin,” Nevermore is like no other boarding school. It’s a magical place. It’s where I met your mother.” “and we fell in love.” They look at each other with this mutually infatuated gaze and sigh. Wednesday's eyes darken, if that's possible,” You guys are making me nauseous. And not in a good way.” They looked at her again” Darling, we aren’t the ones who got you expelled. That boy’s family was going to file attempted murder charges. How would that have looked on your record?” Wednesday looked off as her eyes widened slightly,” terrible. Everyone would know I failed to get the job done.” At that I couldn't keep it in, I chuckled as the little family smirked at me. Save for Wednesday of course who was still very occupied with her brooding. 

My my, this was going to be a fun new adventure. I can feel it. 

As we drove through the strong… iron… gates of this new school, morticia made mention od the weather. An admirable attempt at small talk through the thick silence, normally i would be the one to break it but wednesday specifically told me to give her parents the cold shoulder. If I’m being honest i dont entirely understand why but she looked so cutr and annoyed when she asked in her own way. How did she word it again? Oh yes, i was to be silent or else she would lock me in a tower and take all my jewelry. And my tongue. 

3rd POV

Finally the small family unit had made it to the principals office, greeted by Larissa weems.

“Wednesday is certainly a unique name, i'm guessing it was the day you were born?” she spoke with a grin, after everyone had taken their appropriate seat. Save of course for endeara, she preferred to stand. Tall in her red bottom pumps and silk blouse, she had taken her place behind wednesday, gazing at her new principle with a veiled look of boredom and small smile.

“I was born on friday the 13th.” wednesday quickly rectified, as morticia followed, “Her name comes from a line from my favorite nursery rhyme, Wednesdays child is full of woe.” 

“You always had a unique perspective on the world morticia, did your mother tell you we used to be roomates?” Principle weems said  fondly, her welcoming facade staying strong through the addam’s penetrating gazes. 

“And you graduated with your sanity intact? Impressive.” wednesday spoke again. The topic quickly changed as the principle spoke of her and endearas “interesting educational journey.” 

“Eight schools in five years?” Weems questioned,” They havent built one strong enough to hold us. I’m sure this one wont be any different.” wednesday replied with her same bluntness.  Endeara simply smiled as her parents bristled and were about to reply,” Thats just wednesdays way of trying to say she is very excited for this new opportunity. As am i, and thank you for giving us such a gift.” their new principle seemed to fully take in endeara then, all elegance and playful smiles as she dressed in her small red bottomed pumps and silk black blouse. 

“Nevermore doesn’t usually accept students mid-term, but given their perfect grades and your family’s long history with the school, I’ve spoken with the board and we’ve made an exception.” Weems said simply as the addams parents joined hands in satisfaction, “what about their um,... therapy sessions? The court ordered them.” morticia eyed her daughter as she spoke, hesitant to ask. “The school school has a relationship with a therapist in jericho, she can meet twice a week.” they all looked to wednesday as gomez spoke,” did you hear that my little storm cloud? Youre in excellent hands.” 

“We’ll see if she survives the first session” wednesday quipped back, her gaze unwavering to the woman in front of her as mortica and endeara grinned at her as well. 

The principle resumed again, unbothered. Truly impressing endeara as she spoke again,” ive assigned wednesday to her mothers old dorm. Ophelia hall.” morticia gasps and chuckles excitedly as wednesday turns to her and says,” refresh my memory. Ophelia’s the one who kills herself after being driven mad by her family, correct?” morticia nods happily as the principle leans forward with a plastered grin 

“Shall we go meet your new roommate?’

Endearas POV

We go to wednesdays new dorm and its… something. The family is stunned as morticia speaks,” its so… vivid.” The girl, the new roommate, looks at me and gasps excitedly “Howdy roomie!” and i have to bite my lips from cackling. I mean this is just beautiful, but our principle steals all the fun and introduces wednesday. “wednesday , this is enid sinclair.” Enid looks to from me to wednesday confused, maybe even disappointed, as she asks,” are you okay? You look a little pale.” and mortica smiles as she explains,”wednesday always looks half dead.” “its genetic” i whisper, smiling at the girl. Enid goes in for a hug from wednesday as we both step back, she looks disheartened as she mumbles,” not a hugger. Got it.” morticia pipes up again,”please excuse wednesday. She’s allergic to color.” enid looks shocked,” oh wow. What happens to you?”

“I break out in hives and then the flesh peels from my bones.” this is when our principle speaks again,” luckily weve special ordered your and endears new uniforms. Enid, please take them to the registrar’s office to pick it up along with her schedule, and give them a tour along the way.”

I whisper quietly to Wednesday, ”If they dare put me in cheap, scratchy, suffocating material…i will raze this school to the ground.” Wednesday almost smirks as the Addams look at me in pride and the other two look at me in horror. This tour better be good.

MELANIE POE is forty-three years old. She is an Acting Coach at Redwood Community Theatre and Member of The Muses. She is the incarnation of Melpomene from the Disney film Hercules.

+ Empathetic, Sentimental, Pensive - Woeful, Melodramatic, Morbid

Wednesday's child is full of woe, such is the life of Melanie Poe (or so she would say, in a dramatic tone, while draped over a chez-lounge, fanning herself with a theatre programme.)

Melanie grew up a dramatic child, into a dramatic teen, into an equally dramatic adult. She excelled whenever given the chance to put her speaking and acting skills to use, and was quickly scouted by her local theatre troupe at the tender age of eight.

When it came time to actually choose a career, she could think of no other, and found herself moving to London for her studies. It was soon after that she earned roles at the Globe Theatre, bit parts in West End shows and touring performances across the country.

Melanie moved back to the states in her 30s, looking for a change of pace. While she loved performing, it seemed getting to that Oscar seemed further away the older she became.

By chance, she met Calliope and Clio at a poetry reading. Calliope gave her the life advice she needed and invited her to join The Muses, a woman-led performing arts groups. She now works as an acting coach at the Redwood Community Theatre, while performing when she can.

three headcanons you never told anyone.

i : wednesday doesn't thrive in solitude and silence. it is helpful when she's focusing on writing or solving whatever crime she stumbled upon, but she does not enjoy it. she's unfortunately a social creature, like any other human. she may not display her needs at all for that matter, but she needs other people around her, be it her family, her friends or a romantic partner. you may often see this whenever she involves your muse in her plans. it's not machiavellian, just her way of interacting and not being alone. ii : she has psychopathic tendencies. the everyday is about me quote and how her gloomy eyes light up whenever she gets what she wants ; or the contrary, the look of utter dispair when tyler revealed how he tricked her. these two examples show her psychopathic tendencies. she's aware of how society works and how she doesn't fall into any stereotype that would include her in said society. therefore, the only alternative is to be herself and in consequence, put a barrier between her and the outside world. if the outside world treats her as a menance, then she'll show them how far she's willing to go. it helps that she has a high self esteem and she puts her intellect before her sentiments. aka emotion equals weakness. iii : she's afraid of rejection. which means, when she feels threatened, the primal instincts kick in and she bares her teeth as one last warning. okay, make the last phrase metaphorical, although i can still see it happening. the reason why she avoids technology like the internet is because of her fear of failing, which comes right before rejection from the few individuals that stood by her side up to that point. same goes for inviting people in an unconventional way (that is, from her perspective), like how she asked xavier to the rave'n. since she wasn't doing it her way, the mask fell off and she was no longer in control, which meant she could get rejected. even if they knew each other before and xavier clearly wanted her to ask him out. this all ties up with the first two headcanons, so enjoy!

three things your character likes to do in their free time.

i : writing ii : listening to music iii : preparing for doomsday (by pretending to be dead, haunting others without their knowledge, mastering her skills in possession by learning how to mind read others etc.)

three people your character loves.

herself : there's no denying. wednesday will always put herself first. she may have some relapses and look like she puts someone else first, but at the end of the day, the only person that stands by her is herself. all that self preservation comes at a cost : her only true love will be herself. and that doesn't make her a narcissist (as i too believed at some point), that's just a perk from psychopathy. wednesday's a master of personal gratification for a reason!

joel : it's true what they say, you can't forget your first love. it happened when she was twelve. joel was the first outsider that, albeit scared of what she was capable of, still adored her. it reminded wednesday of what her parents have. she vowed she'd kill her husband without getting caught and she visualized killing joel. isn't that romantic of wednesday? there's a part of her that will always rejoice and love joel, no matter how much time has passed. he showed her that she has needs and it's because of him she planned on becoming the greatest black widow in the history. what's there not to love at joel?

your muse : you know it had to come to this. wednesday was content with the fact she will remain a solitary little murderous thing in the intricate web that is life. that was until she met you. but her source of contentment was nothing but a dichotomy. she cannot remain solitary while also letting her murderous tendencies free. she needs you. wednesday did not lower her guards just yet, she hasn't showed you what her true monochromes are. she loves you nonetheless. you are, after all, just a piece in her chess game. we'll see how it goes and who will be the one to claim the checkmate. until then, rest assured, she has her eye on you, always prepared to smother you in your sleep.

two things your character regrets.

i. letting her guard down. emotions equal weakness and weakness gets you killed. she is guilty of letting her sentiments show every now and then and everytime it costed her dearly. that doesn't mean she will stop trying to achieve excellence. it will come a day when her mask won't come off and only her ruthlessness will reign. you should fear that day and hope you're gone before she comes your way.

ii. not being able to fit in. there's nothing more she desires than being accepted and acting normal. she just can't bring herself to do that. it's easier for her parents because they want to live with the illusion that society changed and the people won't exile them with pitchforks anymore. but they believe this illusion. wednesday doesn't because she notices the world around her. even when she arrived at nevermore, she was still the odd man out. she regrets not being able to fit in, but she won't let it be shown. conceal don't feel don't let them know or some shit.

three phobia's your character has.

i. fear of rejection : pretty self explanatory ii. agoraphobia : becomes anxious in unfamiliar environments or perceiving that she has little to no control. iii. haphephobia : extreme fear of touching or being touched, stems from her personal boundaries and her need for personal space.

Jenna Ortega and Emma Myers in "Wednesday"(2022) Wednesday's Child Is Full of Woe

When a deliciously wicked prank gets Wednesday expelled, her parents ship her off to Nevermore Academy, the boarding school where they fell in love.

"An outcast in a school full of outcasts"

It`s more of a teen series i believe...

Wednesday Season 1 Review

Song of the day: “808s and Goth Bitches” by KIRAW. Wednesday isn’t a goth bitch. I am, though.

It took me a while to finish all eight episodes. And even longer to get around to posting a review. Let’s start off by saying Wednesday surpassed expectations! Not that I thought it would suck.

People are okay with the original Addams Family comics being adult-oriented. (Not as in X-rated. Being published in The New Yorker.) They’re okay with the kid-friendly adaptations. But a spinoff primarily for teenage girls? Stop the presses! 

I was first acquainted with the Addamses through The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries. Might post a Scooby-Review someday.

The PG-13 film duology was watched in preparation, so I was expecting some exemplar dark comedy. And Wednesday was full of it! Wednesday made me want to give The Addams Family 2019 another chance, too.

I took notes while watching, then went back and added some thoughts afterwards.

Wednesday’s Child Is Full of Woe

Another show where adults play teenagers. Tyler Galpin’s actor Hunter Doohan is like twenty-nine now. 

Already it has some great lines (e.g., “Like electroshock therapy without the satisfying burn”). It’s more inspired by the aforementioned live-action films than the comic or other adaptations. Or so I assume, based on my limited knowledge of them. 

I know fans say the Addamses aren’t technically supernatural, “goths are just like that,” but it actually explains a lot. Cousin Itt, Thing, possibly Calpurnia… their extended family in general. 

The duology with Christina Ricci didn’t have Wednesday’s narration. It’s nice to see her uniquely creepy and kooky perspective. Her exile to Nevermore Academy reminds me of how Gomez and Fester went to that camp for juvenile offenders. 

Wednesday is sassy to her parents, which some reviewers complained about, but it makes sense. She’s a teenager. Although there still is some Dawson casting. Ricci!Wednesday is a preteen.

Adaptations, spinoffs, etc. don’t have to be for every fan of a franchise’s previous works. Again, the comics were published in The New Yorker. Which, while “sophisticated,” isn’t family-oriented. 

Unlike other goths, I don’t want to be Wednesday, whose rudeness is amusing. (I really wouldn’t want to hang out with her or her relatives irl, either.) Despite that, they’re all still highly likable as characters. It’s still super easy to empathize with Wednesday at times. Totally understandable why she’d be pissed off with Enid admitting to kinda cyberstalking her. 

I respect Wednesday’s devotion to gothiness. She’s not a tryhard. She succeeds. Both her and Enid could easily have come off as annoying, but are highly likable. Enid would fit in with Teen Wolf’s main pack, probably. No transformation? No problem. She doesn’t just have retractable claws, she has manicured, multi-colored ones. 

It initially felt like an odd decision to make Nevermore’s cliques vampires, werewolves, telepaths, and sirens. Kind of like a live-action Monster High, only watchable. The only main question this episode left me was, “Why were the Pilgrim World employees rude to the sheriff’s son?”

Woe Is the Loneliest Number

The carousel’s brakes broke at Wednesday’s eighth birthday party? I want to see one of hers or Pugsley’s birthdays so bad. D: This episode features another gothic event, Nevermore Academy’s annual Poe Cup. Seemingly inspired by Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry’s four houses, their inter-house Quidditch matches, and the Triwizard (plus Harry) Tournament. 

Thankfully I read His Hideous Heart: 13 of Edgar Allan Poe’s Most Unsettling Tales Reimagined last year. It’s twenty-six Poean texts in all, including the source material. Didn’t have “The Black Cat” or “The Gold-Bug,” though.

“The Black Cat”: Like standard black cat costumes you’d see on Halloween, only a bit cooler. 

“The Cask of Amontillado”: Edgy harlequins, like from a joker card. 

“The Gold-Bug”: I only read this story once years ago and it was in a more child-friendly anthology, so probably condensed. The original had a really stereotypical black character, though. So I can understand why people would be upset Bianca was team captain. It might also be a reclamation thing on her part. I didn’t mention her earlier, because I thought she’d turn out to be a typical bully, but Bianca’s actually cool. Not sure why some of the fandom labeled her a villain. 

“The Pit and the Pendulum”: Are the Hufflepuffs, obvi. 

There’s something about boarding school stories, supernatural or no, that are so fun. Anyway, this episode introduces the tomb of Joseph Crackstone. What a name. This is so Potter-esque. There’s also a cool botany class. Compare to Herbology with Prof. Sprout. 

Uhh… what else? Headmistress, if you want the children to be “well-rounded,” you’re in the wrong Burton work. Wednesday! Don’t go near the apiary in dark clothes! She’s great. We have no way to know if she’s just messing with people or not sometimes. 

Takeaway from this episode: Nevermore is a good successor to Hogwarts.  

Friend or Woe

“Nightshades” is a cool name for a secret club, but there are other poisonous plants besides belladonna. As its members should know from aforementioned Botany. (While watching this, my dad sent me an article about herbal/mushroom teas, dangers of. First time I’ve heard of chaga, though.)

“Do you want a matching black eye?” -Wednesday to merguy. In hindsight, he might have been the first Addams Family character to be naked, besides Cousin Itt. Who hasn’t made an appearance so far. The act of giving double barrel black eyes is known as “raccooning,” btw. According to that one guy on Justified.

It’s nice to see that even though Jericho is “normie,” its thrift store Uriah’s Heap has taxidermy roadkill. Which could be considered more ethical than hunting for the sole purpose of stuffing. 

I hope Netflix knows Puritans and Pilgrims weren’t the same. 🤨 Taking Addams Family Values into account, it’s unsurprising Wednesday’s unhappy about Pilgrim cosplay. Even if it’s in black and white.

Another callback to the ‘90s movies is her beef with GSUSA. “I eat Girl Scouts for breakfast.” What’s it with her and Scouts? I always felt bad for them because they’re expected to work outside in cold weather. 

Wednesday realizing the girl in the Meeting House painting is Goody Addams is the most excited we’ve seen her so far, I believe. 

“Whitewashing of American history,” “mansplaining…” (“Sexsplaining” flows better, imo.) I like how her social justice leanings are divorced from her general assholery. Like, she could be performative about it, but no, she’s genuinely pissed at injustice.  And does something about it.

Woe What a Night

Wednesday was probably so, so happy to be in a morgue. More so than most macabre goths. Also, using a mortician’s recorder then actually getting to play deadly hide-and-seek in a mortuary cabinet! 

Interesting ep for ships. Personally, I’m not picky about who Wednesday ends up with, or even if she ends up with any of the introduced characters so far. I thought she was going to volunteer Enid as a date to Xavier. Whose Rave’N fit made him look kind of like a hatless Doug Dimmadome.

“Give me a call if I ever move up your to-do list.” -Tyler Galpin. Cold. (Note, after finishing this season, I still prefer her with Tyler. :P) It was nice of her to include Eugene in her hunt for the monster, even if it was mostly because she utilized the apiary to store crime scene photos. 

So Morticia’s maiden name is Frump? I kind of wondered if she and Gomez had a cousband thing going on. (Not my thing, just noting it.) *googles* Okay, I should’ve watched the TV series. The live-action one. I am woefully behind on Addams lore. 

You Reap What You Woe

Ah, Gomez, smiling during his own arrest. Perhaps reminded of his juvenile offender days. Maybe.

Oh good, Eugene’s not dead. Yet. Janet referred to her son’s bees as his “fuzzy wuzzy babies.” 🥺 I hope this show sparked an interest in beekeeping for at least some viewers. 

I don’t usually look great in yellow, but I want Bianca mom’s scaly coat. Glamorous family. Glamily. Again, she’s the protagonist’s rival, but not villainous. At all. She’s not worse than Wednesday, really. 

Like her daughter, it makes sense that Morticia would have more than one admirer. Even back then, some people just really wanted a goth GF. I wondered if she thought his name was “Garrote” Gates. “His mistook her kindness for interest.” A tale as old as time. No Garrett, you stupid prep, get off the goth campus. >:( 

Besides the identity of the monster, the biggest question so far is, “How many times has Gomez played Russian roulette with Wednesday if they’ve been playing since she was twelve??” Eating rattlesnake isn’t even that weird compared to what the Addamses usually do.

I’ve seen people complain that Wednesday had the family be Mexican when Luis Guzman and Jenna Ortega are Puerto Rican, but the keyword is “ancestor,” I guess. The whole werewolf conversion camp thing with Enid was even clunkier. 

This is going to make me sound stupider than usual, but at first I thought “FIRE WILL RAIN” was a command. Like, fire someone named “Will Rain.” “FIRE WILL RAIN” is still an improvement over “ENEMIES OF THE HEIR… BEWARE.” 

Quid Pro Woe

Enid’s outfits look so comfy. Between the fuzzy pink coat and her Rave’N outfit. Theme: Yeti? Without an actual yeti present? Disappointment.

Aw, she planned a surprise party and even Thing was wearing a tiny party hat.

@judge-m0rt1s and I really wanna see Enid go pastel goth and try to get Wednesday to embrace it. Their characterizations could’ve easily been annoying, but their dynamic’s cute. I felt a little bad for poor infatuated Tyler. With their matching snoods, I’m sure he suspected Enid and Wednesday were dating. 

I still can’t get over how much of a name “Crackstone” is. 

If You Don’t Woe by Now

Fester finally shows up! Aw, Wednesday’s smiling at her uncle. (If I ever rewatch this season, I’m going to keep a smile tally.) I’m used to Christopher Lloyd’s gruff voice.

“Group electroshock therapy.” Between her mention of ECT in the first ep, the taser, and Ricci!Wednesday’s use of an electric chair on Pugsley… Maybe Wednesday should become an electrician. Eh? Eh? 

Penny’s Pooch Patrol is everything. 

For someone who’s into Gothic lit, I haven’t seen much Jekyll & Hyde media. Hopefully this show also gets people into aspects of goth culture besides fashion. Besides Harry Potter and Teen Wolf, this show also reminds me a bit of NBC’s Grimm. 

Aw, Tyler’s determined to get Wednesday to go out with him.  I love how persistent he is, despite her warnings. At first I was really impressed by the crypt picnic date, projector and all, but I can’t get into Legally Blonde. But, oh, so Tyler’s actually a deranged monster? Nice. 

(It’s still funny how the actor’s almost thirty.) 

A Murder of Woes

Not only is Tyler a Hyde, he’s aware he’s a Hyde. And HE GOT CORRUPT. :D

I wish Bianca had used her siren powers to get Tyler to tell the truth while Wednesday had him chained up. Wednesday’s methods are crude. But she definitely has a strong sense of justice. She had a point, Weems!

I get not wanting the school to go, uh, but uh… Weems isn’t the greatest headmistress. (Cool character, though.) “I didn’t ask what she identified as.” You don’t identify as a Hyde! Francois just was one. 

Marilyn (Laurel) had a weird MD/LB thing going on with Tyler. (I say “weird,” because she’s evil.) Morticia and Gomez are supposed to be the kinkiest.

When Wednesday’s the one bound to a chair.... “Kind of a déjà vu thing we got going on, huh?” “Except I won’t cry and whine like a child.” YOU TELL HIM, WEDNESDAY. She’s masochistic, and probably right. 

Goody Addams… Goody’s supposed to be her given name, but Goody is an abbreviation of Goodwoman. Basically a Puritan honorific equivalent of Mrs.

Outcasts “stole” Crackstone’s land? Wednesday already got postcolonial. Don’t make her do it again. >:( 

Hell yeah, Bianca, stab that undead mofo! Also, Eugene returns. With his bees! It was kind of funny seeing Laurel shoot at a swarm with a handgun. 

In conclusion, Tim Burton redeemed himself with Wednesday, after a string of movies I didn’t particularly care for. I love how the show took common tropes but made them entertaining as heck. Like the whole bloodline/sacrifice/night of the (whatever) thing. Goody’s ghost healing her was a bit of a deus ex machina, though.

6 | Wednesday

Series: Valentine Addams | Wednesday

Paring: (Xavier Thorpe x OFC Addams! Tyler Galpin x OFC Addams!)

Word Count: 1854

Warnings: family reunion, Wednesday being disappointed in her sister

Last: Conflicted | Next: Returned the Favor

I was to meet my parents and Wednesday then take them to Weems. As I see our car pull up I start to get excited to see my family again because it's been so long. "My midnight." My dad rushes over to give me a hug and I hug him back. "Look at you. You're not as dull in the face." He cups my face making me laugh, 

"Nope." I give him a smile. 

"Valentine, my dear." My mother gives me a hug now. 

"Mother." I hug her back. "Has things been still going well for you?" She asks placing her hands in my shoulders. 

"Nevermore is still perfect." I let her know. "Pugsley is going to wait in the car while we go to Weems. So you can see him after words." She lets me know. 

"Sister." Wednesday says in her cold tone. 

"I've missed your cold soul." I give her a smile before leading them to the office.

"Hello, again Morticia." Weems says as we all come in. 

"Valentine, you're welcome to stay in here with your family." Weems lets me know so I stand next to my mother as she sits. "Wednesday is certainly a unique name. I'm guessing it was the day of the week you were born?" Weems asks her. 

"I was born Friday the 13th. Valentine and I are twins." Wednesday tells her. 

"Her name comes from a line from my favorite nursery rhyme, Wednesday's child is full of woe." Our mother explains her name. 

"You always had a unique perspective in the world, Morticia. Did your mother tell you we were roommates back in the day?" Weems tells her and I didn't even know that. That really helps with her not like our mother. 

"And you graduated with your sanity intact? Impressive."

"You've certainly had a very interesting educational journey. Eight schools in five years. Catching up to your sister I see." Weems looks at her paper. 

"Yes. They haven't built one strong enough to hold me. I bet this place won't be any different." Wednesday tells her. 

"What our daughter is trying to say is that she greatly appreciates the opportunity. I'm sure she will learn to love Nevermore like her sister." Our father tells Weems. 

She goes to say they don't usually accept students mid-term but Wednesday is an exception. "Larissa, and Wednesday's therapy sessions, court orders as well... Will she's see the same person as Valentine?" Mother asks. 

"Yes. Two days a week as well." Weems lets her know. 

"Did you hear that, my little storm cloud? You're in excellent hands." Father tells her. 

"We'll see is she survives the first session."

Weems glances at me before signing, "I've assigned you to your mother's old dorm. Ophelia Hall, just like your sister." Weems tells Wednesday. 

"Refresh my memory. Ophelia's the one who kills herself after being driven mad by her family, correct?" Wednesday looks at our mother who nods her head with a smile. 

"Should we go meet your new roommate?" Weems smiles and we all follow her. 

When we get to the room the three were disgusted by the colors Enid had up. "It's so... vivid." Father eyes the room.

"Howdy, roomie." Enid comes over excited. 

"Wednesday, this is Enid Sinclair." Weems introduces her. 

"You feeling okay? You look a little pale." Enid says worried. 

"She always looks half dead. More than me." I laugh. 

"Right, you're sister. Welcome to Ophelia Hall." She tries to hug Wednesday but she backs up, Not a hugger. Got it." She nods her head. 

"Please excuse Wednesday. She's allergic to color." Our mother tells her. 

"Oh, wow. What happens to you?" Enid asks. 

"I break out into hives and then the flesh peels off my bones." Wednesday says making her make a face. 

"Luckily. We've special ordered your uniform like your sister." Weems smiles at Wednesday.

"Enid, please take Wednesday to the registrar's office to pick it up along with her schedule. And give her a tour along the way." Weems says so Wednesday turns to leave and Enid skips behind her pulling me to go with them. 

"Nevermore was founded in 1791 to educate people like us. Outcast, freaks, monsters, fill in your favorite marginalized group here." Enid says as we walk through the school. 

"You can save sanitized sales pitch. I don't plan on staying here for long like my weak sister." Wednesday tells her glancing at me. 

"Oh, I'm weak for staying here? I'm not sorry I actually found a place where I feel comfortable for once outside of home." I roll my eyes at her. 

"Our parents have been looking for and excuse to send us here. It's all a part of their nefarious, yet completely obvious plan to turn us into a version of themselves. I won't give in like the weaker twin." Wednesday eyes me.

"In that case, perhaps you can clear something up. Rumor's been swirling around that you killed a kid at your old school, and your parents pulled strings to get you off." Enid says as we walk again. 

"Actually, it was two kids, but who's counting." Wednesday walks ahead. 

"You sisters scare me at times." Enid looks at me because we follow. "Welcome to the quad." Enid smiles. 

"It's a pentagon."

Enid just looks at her, "The whole snarky Goth girl thing might have worked at normie school, but here things are different. Let me give you a wiki on Nevermore's social scene." Enid walks and gives her the run down.

"I'm guessing Scales are sirens?" Wednesday looks over at the three. 

"You catch on quick. And that girl, Bianca Barclay, is the closest thing Nevermore has to royalty. Although her crown's been slipping lately. Thanks to your sister. She used to date our resident torturer artist, Xavier Thorpe. But they broke up at the beginning of the semester. Reason unknown." Enid says then looks at me. 

"I'm still not telling why they broke up." I say making her huff before talking about her vlog is the source for gossip.

"Yo, Enid! You're or not gonna believe the dirt I heard about your new roommate. She eats human flesh. Totally chowed down that kid she murdered. You better watch your back. And you got competition, Valentine to be the most creepiest." Ajax show up so Enid steps out of the way to show Wednesday. 

"Quite the contrary. I actually fillet the bodies of my victims, then feed them to my menagerie of pets." She says making him frozen. 

"Ajax, this is my new roommate, Wednesday. Valentine's sister." Enid smiles.

"Wow. So you're whole family is black and white like a living Instagram filter." He stares at us. 

"I'll give you a second to walk away." I stare him down so he turns to leave. "I'm going to go see our dear bother." I rush off.

"Valentine!" Pugsley rushes over wrapping his arms around me. 

"How have you been?" I hug him back. 

"Not the best. Still picked on. That's why Wednesday is here now. She put piranhas in the swimming pool." He lets me know what she did. 

"Not a bad idea." I nod my head with her decision. 

"Val, dear." Mother motions for me so I go over to her. "Please, keep an eye on your sister. She will try to run away from this school. I'm hoping Nevermore can help her like it did with you. I can tell you've changed finding yourself even more." She take my hand into hers. 

"I promise to watch out for her. She's already called me weak for staying here but I really love it here." I say making her smile. 

"I love hearing that." She smiles more. 

"I love you, mother." We do air kisses before I tell father and Pugsley goodbye.

-

As I go in I pass Wednesday going out to our family. I go back out to the quad going over to Xavier, "Not bad." I joke with him. 

"Now you want to talk to me after walking away from our conversation yesterday?" He continues to work. 

"I'm going to keep being just yours and Tyler's friend until l know things and my own feelings." I explain making him stop to look at me, "I'm not good at understanding myself when it comes to feelings. Others it's easier because it's like reading a book but I'm unreadable." I lean against the wall next to where he was working, "I'm not used to them. Especially those kinds so I would appreciate it we keep being friends." I mess with my fingers as I look at him through my eyelashes.

He mimics my stance doing the same next to me, "Whatever makes you comfortable, V." He gives me a smile. 

"Thanks." I give him one back. 

"I heard your sister is starting today." He goes back to working. 

"She's here already. Saying goodbye to our parents right now. Not very happy to be here. I promised to keep an eye on her so she doesn't run away." I watch him work. 

"Good luck with that." He chuckles. 

"I might not even try." I laugh standing up straight. 

"Wanna contribute to this? Might finish it faster." He motions to the tools. 

"Are you serious?" I ask surprised. 

"Get your ass over here and help me." He chuckles so I join him.

After some time later in the day, I go to check on Wednesday to see how she's settling in. "Enid, gonna be upset." I see her removing the color from her side of the room in the window. 

"It's my half so I don't care." She continues to scrap. 

"Why are you so against giving Nevermore a try?" I sit on her bed. 

"Because I refuse to be someone they want me to become. You fell into the trap, sis. Look at you. You look slightly more alive instead of half dead like you used to. Growing up you've always wanted to give this a place a look from stories while I never cared." She gets up turning to face me. 

"I've change, I know that. I've come to realize that over time because of feelings." I admit that. 

"See, feelings. You barley used to have any unless it came to family. I refuse to become like you and mother. We have our similarities being twins, but you've always been like mother in some way. It's developing more being here." She crosses her arms at me.

"I don't care if you try running away. I promised to keep an eye on you but I know my own sister, my twin to be exact. I know you don't want to be here. I know you don't want to be like our mother. And I'm not going to force you to change or stay here. I'll do what I can to help you try to get away. I'll do anything for family remember. Especially you, Wednesday." I tell her meaning it all.

"At least you haven't turned into an entirely new person." She smiles some before Enid comes in asking what did she do. 

"That's my cue to go. Night Sis, night Enid." I leave their room.

Morticia and Wednesday ( @lcvenderhcze )

Despite the concern of being in a new place, Morticia was surprised that she didn't hate it. The weather was lovely; clouds and gloom as far as the eyes could see. Plus, she'd easily gotten a job at a nearby florist. Now all she needed was her family. It was pure torture being separated from her love, and while she normally enjoyed most forms of torture, this one was impossible to push through. She was cutting the petals off of a bouquet when she recognized a shadow passing by the corner of her eye. Could it be? Her oldest. Her child full of woe. Her Wednesday. Morticia tore through the shop to get outside and follow her daughter. "Wednesday," she called out to the familiar back of braids in front of her. Of course she knew her daughter would ignore most calls of her name, so she followed up with a nickname. "My little raven!" Surely that would cause her to stop. "Wednesday Friday Addams, you stop and say hello to your mother right now." Their relationship had never been perfect.

The rock is also its spell focus

It often flirts with people unconsciously because it just thinks it’s having fun but then people take it too seriously and it gets scared

A bit childish at times, like heart of a child with innocence but can still kill a bitch

Favourite music is hyperpop (but only listens to 100 gecs and nothing else)

Favourite song is hollywood baby

Its war cry is “do you wanna party malibu barby” 

It’s very into moss

Has a friend named Moss but it’s not into him like that, it’s into the plant moss

Doesn’t know the names of any of the different kinds of moss

Always points to any moss it sees and says “that’s my favourite kind of moss” and if people ask “oh what kind is it” it will say “my favourite kind, duh”

It’s a bit sassy but not in a rude way

Fighting style can be described as “scraggles up and goes for the knees”

Because it can only reach the knees usually

Opponents at the same height as it, it tries to kiss sloppy with tongue to freak them out which catches them off guard and then it stabs them

Backstory

Became an adventurer because it was listening to Hollywood Baby while asleep and it had a dream where a wizard asked it “Do you wanna party malibu barby” and it said yes in the dream and then woke up and had magical powers at age 8

Its parents couldn’t afford magic school but their kobold clan knew a pack of magical wolves that taught Itty how to hone its magical abilities 

The wolves taught it to use bladesinger magic originally with a stick that it would also use to play fetch with the wolves

It got the sun blade because it entered a sweepstakes from the back of a Bart Simpson's No ProblemO's cereal box

Was like “First place gets to spend a weekend with Justin Bieber. Second place gets this sword I guess” and it got second

It bought like 200 boxes of this cereal to enter this sweepstakes because it really wanted to meet Justin Bieber not because it listened to his music but because it wanted to kick him in the balls which put significant financial strain on its parents and they had to take out a loan and then only eat this cereal for months

It became an adventurer to repay the loan its parents took out to buy all of that cereal

It’s only been adventuring for 2 years (since 16) but it’s been a VERY busy two years

She got appointed because she invented the plunger which solved many of the king’s gassy woes

She also has a big beard but her belly jiggles like it’s full of wine

She always has Wine Wednesdays with the girlies every other day + Wednesdays unless it’s a leap year

Met at a rave while they were both high on ecstasy

Gritty went back to Kitty’s place after and they took a nap and then woke up and made waffles

They both cut their waffles in slices instead of squares and that’s what made them fall for each other

They have a really good and strong relationship 

They’ve always been supportive of its adventures because they know it is so strong and will never get hurt

Its parents always tell the story about how when it was a child and it came home telling them it needed to make an entire kiddie pool’s worth of jello for a science class experiment but really it just wanted to swim in jello

Friend

Moss is its only friend

They met at magic wolf academy

Moss is a cis guy but his parents are just really into moss

Same as Itty where they don’t know the different kinds of mosses they just like moss

Moss is a wizard satyr

Moss is 5’5 which is over double Itty’s height

Moss lets Itty ride on his back so it can experience the joys of seeing above the second shelf at the grocery store

Mastering Fencing and Cello: The Challenges Jenna Ortega Overcame to Bring Wednesday Addams to Life

The cartoon character Wednesday Addams, created by Charles Addams, is well-known for her sharp wit, dark humor, and gothic appearance.

In the Netflix series, Jenna Ortega plays Wednesday’s teenage girl who must overcome the challenges of growing up while staying true to her unconventional roots.  

Many fans and critics agree that Ortega did a fantastic job portraying Wednesday, praising her for giving the beloved character a new, contemporary spin.

Wednesday has become one of the most popular characters in the Netflix series, and the actress’s hard work and dedication have paid off. 

For Ortega, the role was a matter of heart. She puts soul into her character and shows it in every scene she appears in. From her skillful lines to her physical mannerisms, Ortega’s Wednesday is a masterpiece. 

The adage “Wednesday’s child is full of woe” is true, but Jenna Ortega makes Wednesday Addams come to life with humor, heart, and life. It’s delightful to watch the actress bring Wednesday to life on screen because she has truly embraced the role.

Despite the challenges, Ortega persisted and was finally able to bring Wednesday Addams to life on screen.  

The young actress immersed herself in the character, researching the original comics and previous film adaptations to get a sense of Wednesday’s unique personality and quirks.  

Full of Woe

“It was show up to set two hours early, do that 12- to 14-hour day, then go home and then get on a Zoom and have whatever lesson that I had,” Ortega recounted, according to Variety. 

“Or show up to my apartment, [and] my cello teacher was already waiting for me. It was just constantly going, and if you could on a weekend, if we weren’t shooting the sixth day that week, it was, ‘All right, well then, we’ll get your lessons in on that day.'”

Along with her musical talent, Ortega had to learn how to fence in order to play Wednesday, who is portrayed in the series as a skilled fencer. The actress acknowledged that learning a new sport was challenging, but it was also a worthwhile experience.

“I never thought I would ever be able to do something like that,” she said. “But now, I could just go to a fencing club and fence for hours and not get tired.”

Ortega’s dedication to her role in Wednesday is a testament to her passion for her craft and her commitment to delivering the best performance possible. 

Whether she’s performing on cello or fencing with a rapier, Ortega’s talent shines through in every scene, making her a true standout in the series.

“I did not get any sleep. I pulled my hair out,” she said. “There’s so many FaceTime calls that my dad answered of me hysterically crying.”

Burton’s Confidence on Her Abilities

Burton, the renowned director and executive producer, had full confidence in actress Ortega’s abilities. Despite this, Ortega was still feeling the pressure of the demanding role she was about to play.

In an effort to ease Ortega’s nerves, Burton reassured her with words of encouragement, telling her not to worry and that she was going to do great. However, even with Burton’s confidence in her, Ortega still found the task at hand to be incredibly challenging.

One of the difficulties Ortega faced was simply knowing where to place her hands during the performance. Additionally, she was tasked with the seemingly impossible feat of making two cellos appear to come out of one cello. 

This requirement was not only physically challenging, but also required Ortega to think creatively and use her imagination.

Despite these difficulties, Ortega persevered and, with the support of Burton, was able to deliver a stunning performance that left audiences in awe. The effort she put into her role and the support she received from Burton show that with hard work and determination, anything is doable...Read More

14) Story of a nice girl

This is the little long story of a nice girl

At sixteen, she would break her back to succeed in school, to get good grades

That day she was going there with a big smile on her face

It was October 19th, a wednesday

And we all know Wednesday's child is full of woe

She got a great score on an important exam

It was one of those days you'll cherish for a lifetime

But on the bus she met a blonde girl

She used to be jealous of her

But lately she wasn't, 'cause she trusted her best friend to be truly hers

On the ride she got a call, but she didn't answer 'cause she was listening to the music and she was so happy

She should've been happy all day long

Little did she knew that her best friend would hurt her, that Love would have to wipe off her tears in the afternoon

Little did she knew

She just went to school

Her best friend said that the girl she was called from was mad at her

She didn't care, at least at the start

It was a nice day, after all

But then between the fourth hour and fifth one

Anxiety got her so bad

She started crying

Everyone was worried 'bout her

She went to the bus stop with two nice classmates and her best friend

God's honest truth, the girl just wanted to talk

And so our nice protagonist realised that the blonde girl had lied

In the afternoon, she texted her best friend but she didn't want to take sides

She felt betrayed and she cried

Little did she knew that her best friend would hurt her, that Love would have to wipe off her tears in the afternoon

Little did she knew

The next weeks were hard

Her best friend started to act like she was a neglected victim

Love used to be friends with best friend

But now Love hates her

Because her little nice girl cried when she should've partied

Love is really really mad

Love is planning a revenge

Love doesn't like that best friend is still friends with the blonde girl

Love doesn't like the blonde girl

Love is really really mad

Love is planning a revenge

Gone off with the sunrise

Reno never felt so slow

Wednesday's child with a rented ride

And a head that's full of woe

[birdsandlonging-blog]

untitled/4am/venice beach

I don’t even feel like a person anymore

I feel like a prop or one of those wax figurines

An SVU body double

Petchieal bruising 

Rubbing my eyes, palpebral conjunctiva 

My eyes gooey in love for you 

Oozing, dripping, the wound is still wet

It hasn’t healed yet.

You’re my band aid 

But healing is so hard 

I feel the impact 

Your hands are so heavy now 

Blunt force trauma

Multiple stab wounds to the abdomen and genitals

Ligature marks on the wrist and ankles

Victim shows signs of chronic abuse

Habitual. 

I wish it was a tv show

I wish it really was pretend

I want to fake it for real

Then it cant hurt me

You’re the only one who can tell when I’m faking anyways

I’m not making it all about me

Cant you see i don’t ever want it to be about me

I’m so sorry.

I’m fixating on fixing you all

So i don’t ever have to focus on it

I like all of them 

Thats the problem

I like the scientific process 

Of the chemicals

And yet i would never donate my body to science.

My body is already claimed 

And not my own. 

It belongs to you and you only.

I would let you murder me 

Just to never have another thought 

Ever again.

In my mind 

I’m always sixteen

My mom is gonna kill me.

They made me a dud

I came out of the box with missing pieces 

Faulty parts 

“were not seeing what we would expect to see by  7 weeks”

“see that? That’s the gestational sac there should be something there”

“see its empty”

Everything disposable

You put the little dress in the trash

Cold jelly still on your thighs when you get home

The house has never been so quiet

They never made a noise

It’s just the screaming in your head

Don’t let them hear you

It’s a secret 

You better shut the fuck up.

Bite the pillow, be a good girl 

You’re not the only one who enjoys torture 

“You’re gonna feel a slight pinch”

It’s a knife 

It’s serrated

The cuts are jagged 

See how it leaves a distinctive impression mark on the flesh?

It’s a signature 

An MO

He’s a serial killer

I’m struggling to eat cereal

True crime of passion

Not even, its more like possession

I’m a demon I’m an angel 

You’re an architect 

You don’t even go to this school

You already know everything 

No need for higher education 

You’re already initiated

We just need to take another vial or two

We just need to run another test 

We have to contact the diagnostics department 

They are closed on Wednesdays

I was born on a Wednesday

Mercury day 

“Wednesday’s child is full of woe” 

Sorry, i have a Gemini moon 

It’s not my fault 

Or is it?

This baby is made out of metal and this one is made out of granite 

“I’m so sorry but we didn’t find a heartbeat”

Don’t worry, we will give you morphine,It’s sublingual

It can take 12-24 hours for the induction to start

You have to insert it, Is your partner home?

Do you have someone we can call for you?

Make sure you have enough maxi pads

You can always put some towels underneath your sheets

It’s normal to lose that much blood DON’T WORRY 

I didn’t even know i had that much blood in my body

I thought i was a corpse 

Do something nice for yourself

Go for a walk, a long one 

Off a short pier preferably 

My body is a graveyard

Somebody brought a casserole

He said he’s bringing flowers on Monday

The gravestone is filthy

He hasn’t been maintaining it

The alter is empty

I forgot to bring my offerings 

I have nothing to offer anyways

The universe wants to spite me, a cosmic joke

I cant stop laughing, It’s just a defence mechanism 

When the jokes don’t land 

I know I’m in trouble

I want to be punished

I don’t suffer from mental illness

I’m enjoying every minute of it

My insides are raw

They’re on the outside now

Like that Frida Khalo painting

“Just a little nip”

They need another sample

I have nothing left to give 

Drain me, I’m begging you 

Make me bloodless

Leave me lifeless 

You told me to shut up

That’s what I’m doing

I don’t even know what I’m saying

So I’m singing instead

You can find me on the dance floor

Low to the ground, gravity  pulling me down 

Bending me over, turning me sideways

Into the “recovery position”

Nothing but Acid in my gullet 

Nothing but an apple seed in my belly

It’s arsenic. It’s turpentine you’re toxic

Remember when we used to huff paint in the garage?

Make it quick and painless 

Before my parents get home

I cant i have a headache 

I thought i was your painkiller 

Now you want to kill me

I want to be a victim

Please don’t use that picture

Pick a different adjective when you describe me 

Pick a new poison, this one is getting tiring 

The onset isn’t quick enough.

Bury me in the backyard

Next to my babies

Amongst the peonies

Yet another pony he promised me

One hand on the braid another on the bridle 

The harness is sliding down her hide

Why do horses always smell like dust

Why does my saliva taste like pennies?

Swallowing some batteries, a choking hazard

A warning, i choose to ignore it.
