Back after a long time. 10 months hiatus, and now I am done with school for a bit.

Waking up next to Wednesday was like a blessing to you. She looked peaceful while asleep. Regrettably, she had to get ready for either school or personal shenanigans, as did you. That was precisely what made you anxious, daily, since the moment she opened her eyes. For being so perceptive, it was a miracle she hadn't found out about your scars yet. You weren't sure you wanted her to. She'd probably say something along the lines of "Delightful scarring of the tissue. I wonder how it'd look fresh." But, being your girlfriend, maybe she'd say something more akin to "Despite appreciating scars, I'd rather your skin be conserved pristine." It could go either way, really. You wanted to sigh, but you held it in. If you stared any longer, she'd wake up. You closed your eyes, enjoying the moment with your girlfriend. But it was too late, and Wednesday was wide awake. —Morning. It was said with a rather monotonous voice, which scared you a little. Typical Wednesday shenanigans. It was so suddenly said that you were startled. You opened your eyes to look at Wednesday. —Morning, Wednesday. You smiled before getting up. Cuddling wasn't a thing between you, and you were quite fine with that. Lying next to her was, admittedly, a big step for you—much like it was for her. Wednesday was staying at yours this time, so you only needed to go pick your clothes. It was nice, having that privacy. You'd hate for her to find out that way. Or any way, to be honest. She noticed you were being weird, of course. Or well, weirder than usual. She couldn't not see it. Yet, she said nothing. She thought that letting things play out may lead to interesting results. ¤¤¤¤¤ The morning continued as usual, uneventfully strange. But strange was usual at a place full of outcasts. You sighed, rolling your sleeves back down for the nth time that class. Wednesday noticed that too, of course. There's not much she doesn't see. But, as Wednesday herself, she's not one to talk about her observations so openly. Some time later, when it was time for another class, she quietly observed. You were there, yes, but you weren't there. And she thought that the pensive look of your eyes, melancholic and solitary only made you look ethereal. —Nails for your thoughts? —I'd rather much receive a penny. She was not a fan of that response, but she let it slide. It was you after all... She bit back her tongue. —Tell me what's going on. She had that way of speaking, truly Wednesday. It made you chuckle, resting a cheek on a propped up hand. She stood there with a straightened back, looking at you intensely. —Not much, Wednesday. It's more like I'm not thinking of anything. Well, she couldn't really understand that. There was always something to be thinking of, to be aware of. She gave you a look, a knowing, distrustful look.

—I won't pry for more. But just you know, I'm not that gullible. She gave a half turn, walking away as she does, dramatic end to the scene. It was nerve-wracking. But you had it in mind to keep the scars unnoticeable. You were far more careful for the rest of the day, keeping yourself from moving all that much. You knew she'd be observing you, preying on you like a vulture does a carcass. Exactly because of that, you kept yourself even more static than usual. She seemed busy with Enid... or well, it looked like she was being kept there as an unwilling participant in their conversation. It was just the perfect opportunity to slip away and back to your room. You sighed, locking the door behind you. Having alone time was the best thing that could happen. You took off the suit jacket Nevermore had given you, and then the hoodie, and then you were standing there with a short-sleeved shirt. You weren't really used to being like that —uncovered—, in fear that anyone would know just how bad your mental health had been. But just this time... You lied back down on the bed, covering yourself. You were tired after all... homework was for later. ¤¤¤¤¤ She was just outside your room, feet directly in front of the door. She had lock-picked it minutes ago, but she hadn't entered. It seemed both wrong and right, but it's not like her moral compass was up to date. She slowly opened the door, making sure it wouldn't creak much. Her steps were light, just like the sound of your slow breathing. You were there, she could see, covered in sheets and sleeping peacefully. So that's what you were doing, taking an afternoon nap. You stirred, feeling eyes on you. You pushed yourself up, the cold air caressing your skin like a suffocating blanket. It took some time to be able to open your eyes, the curtains not being too good at blacking out the tired sun.

—Wednesday?—, you asked. Your voice was warm, unfiltered with bits of seeping sleep. —What are you doing here? She kept quiet, taking in everything she could from all the senses she had. You looked good, sounded good, and she was sure you'd feel even better. The thoughts made her feel even stranger. —I was looking for you. You covered yourself again, lying back down. —'Kay... In such a sleepy and bare state, below such a perceptive gaze, your scars were on full display. Wednesday noticed, of course. The lighter scars and faded marks contrasted with your tanner skin, as did the much newer ones. She, of course, decided to stay in silence. She wasn't against speaking her mind. Quite the contrary. But she knew you'd be too sleepy. Instead, she closed the door and sat on your bed. Her hand was somewhat hesitant, but soon enough, her fingers combed your hair. Soft, soft. As soft as you made her, regrettably, feel. —Sleep well. We may talk later. ¤¤¤¤¤ Later came back all too soon, only minutes after she started caressing you. It made you sleepy at first, and then you suddenly remembered the state you were in. It shocked you awake. —H-hey!

You sat up quickly, making the covers slide down even more. She knew it was coming, as she does usually. So, she nodded, calmly, despite your panic. —I saw. I don't mind. Was that the normal reaction? Was that a good reaction? What would be a normal reaction anyway? Was that even the reaction you expected? At least Wednesday didn't judge... —I, uh... —Hm? You don't need to say anything—. She took some seconds to think. —I'm not adept with comfort, as you know. However, if you ever need my... presence, advice, or... something, I am here. It was too much. You didn't really expect her to comfort you, no. You knew she was a cold individual. But knowing that she truly did care about you, enough to make her say that she could possibly comfort you? That was truly a lot. Tears spilled before you noticed, nodding. Silently, they made trails on your face just as you did with her fingers on her hand. She let it happen, making your heart impossibly warm. —I appreciate it, Wednesday. She nodded. —I know. Maybe, just maybe, cold could be warm too.

Wednesday wakes up with a feeling of vertigo and a quickly fading memory of a dream. Snapping her body to instantly sit up fails, her head hits the pillow on the first try instead.

And the second.

On the third she props herself up with a hand, spots dancing in her eyes as she struggles to stay in that only partly up position. When she regains her vision the intelligible sound that sounded muffled turns out to be Enid cursing at her wrist, shaking it while sitting on the floor.

For the first time in over a year of rooming together Enid is out of the bed before Wednesday.

Since when Enid cared for any other waking up method but Wednesday’s increasingly violent threats?

"I don't know if I'll ever get used to this as my wake up alarm," Enid grumbles, glaring at her black watch, and it is not the first time the Addams crest is met with hostility after helping.

"You will," Wednesday says standing up. And then promptly sitting down again.

"Nooo, I don't think the opposite of hating your beloved song the moment you use it as an alarm will happen here by itself-”Enid stops herself and watches as Wednesday slowly balances out her spinning head, and then says with a softer upset“ okay how many nights are needed at minimum to recover for you."

"More than one," the half dead looking girl says, quieter than intended, while tensing her muscles before getting up, to make the blood flow act right and not bleed out of her brain.

"Well my estimate jumps to a week at least now. No Wednesday going out as today is a Wednesday night in I say," the blonde says, skidding across the ghost of divider tape with an exaggeratedly serious facade.

"Good thing it's Tuesday then." Wednesday drolls automatically despite no desire to do anything past her writing hour.

"No, it's not, it's Wednesday."

"I didn't do anything."

Enid blinks at her instead of smiling and Wednesday wants to forget her whole morning already.

---- Wassup, I got Enid doing Groundhog Day, like, 3 days late but still! Tis the season.

From a POV of one exhausted seer witnessing time becoming even more nonlinear than her usual experience, even as she's not actually immune to the memory reset.

Six Somethings Sunday!

Hello friends. I am couch-ridden with a sprained ankle. Do you know what that means?

It means I can't busy myself running around all day and forget/run out of time to do a post! So thank you to @monbons and @blackberrysummerblog for the tags!

I've posted a few times about Fettuccine and Foreplay and it's quite short, so I'm done teasing that one (it's in beta!). Instead, I'll share from my Wednesday x Carry On crossover fic. I don't think I've ever actually publicly made the connection that this fic is also the one with the Deaf OC, so, surprise!

Delilah is Penny and Shepard's daughter. I wasn't sure at first whether this would take place at the same time that Wednesday & co are at the school, or if it would just take place at Nevermore Academy some other time, but I can't have Thing and Delilah not meet and get into shenanigans together!

I also really want Simon and Baz's daughter to go, too, and I very much want that daughter to be Tori from our Heartstopper crossover, but Heartstopper x CO x Wednesday just feels like too much... so she may just be a very Tori-coded character...

Anyway, here are six bullets points (and some sub-bullets for bonus) from my planning doc:

Delilah notices Thing signing with Wednesday and Enid, them responding to him

he points at Delilah – Wed doesn't look, Enid waves

Thing taps and points again, Wed and Enid approach

Say Thing noticed Delilah signing earlier and wanted to meet; Delilah fascinated and so fucking excited

Thing, Delilah, and Enid set up date to hang out and learn from each other

Delilah: can we invite my dad? He would be so excited to meet you.

still won't know ASL, but what does that matter when the people at school who do understand sign know it from Thing, who has his own language? More opportunity to communicate regardless?

Enid gives them the scoop on everyone – first lead of who to talk to about alt magic??

Wednesday review (spoilers)

That's it??? They just ended it like that???!!

I must say, this show's editing was choppy at times. VERY choppy. I have no idea what time of the year it's supposed to be, but shows don't seem to care nowadays.

Also it wouldn't have KILLED them to make a longer season! 8 episodes really wasn't enough to delve into that. EVERYTHING was just plot plot plot. If this show was made 15 years ago we'd have at least have shenanigans caused by a different set of outcasts every week, character-central episodes, delving into mythology and secret rooms and actually fleshing out the romantic interests, giving them moments that would actually make me feel bad for big reveals and betrayals, and when something really plotty happens (like a small detail) unexpectedly, THAT'S when you can point your finger and go OOOH!!!!! And it would at least be 16 episodes long.

Fun fact: Tyler was hottest when he was threatening Wednesday at the police station 🤭 oh, and covered in blood, too.

As for the relationships themselves: I really appreciated the friendship arc of Wednesday and Enid. No, I don't ship them.

Enid and Ajax: they are cute. He needed more lines. And when is he going to be used to defeat evil? And why didn't his beanie ever ... ya know. Hiss? Little moments that remind us he's got snakes under it.

Wednesday and tyler: where were our little moments??? When Tyler said 'I thought we liked each other', that was news to me. I like them, but at the same time, they hardly saw each other. I did like looking at him, but he really only had one bewildered expression.

Wednesday and Xavier (or *American accent* ex-avier): when she demanded why he liked her and he said 'what's there to like?' after how she treated him, he was never so right. I was expecting more moments to warrant a side of a love triangle, but there was no triangle. There wasn't even a friendship. There was Wednesday and tyler, and Xavier third wheeling like a kicked puppy. He had some good lines, though his delivery was.... a liiiiitle deadpan. But he'll get better, I hope. With some better writing, too.

And the powers: wouldn't have killed them to explain his powers more! So dad's a psychic, how does that translate to making lifelike art??

Also, he looked hottest when he was in paint-stained clothes in his studio 😍 that's probably just the artist in me. I actually really liked his art.

Plot: I spoiled myself on it, so I can't evaluate how well they foreshadowed. My brother watched it before me and he thought he had it 'all figured out' with guessing Xavier as the monster, but to be honest, they were so obvious with those misleading clues, which in itself gives it away. It probably comes down to how many shows you've watched: Tyler was either going to die, or turn out to be a freak.

Weems getting iced so easily? What was with that? Anticlimactic.

But YASS Enid became a wolf!!!

Also, crackstone just.... died? Like that? You're telling me all those randoms gave their body parts so he could spend 5 minutes terrorising a school, and he didn't even get to kill anyone?

And what the hell did Wednesday do with Ms Thornhill?

They were also very heavy-handed with all of their themes. You could tell when Goody Addams (as an unmarried paternal ancestor she shouldn't even have the surname, but that's neither here nor there) chucked out a few lines like 'we lived in harmony with the native folk', when crackstone and co. said things sounding like they were written by someone who was forced to go to catholic school at 12, when Wednesday spouted lines that made it hard to believe she did not spend time on Twitter, etc.

Just, man, I could write fanfic on the mythology that they couldve woven in with the literal vampires, shapeshifters, gorgons, sirens (SIRENS ARE NOT MERMAIDS, TIM BURTON!!! YOU COULDVE GIVEN THEM SICK WINGS AND CLAWS BUT YOU MADE THEM MERMAIDS WHILE BEING TOO COWARD TO CALL THEM THAT!) or the monster-of-the-week episodes we couldve done. :(

So overall TL;DR:

It was OK. Couldve been fleshed out more. Telling me there's another season isn't an excuse.

My thoughts on Wednesday (2022)

So I watched Wednesday because my mom wanted to watch it with me. I went in with low expectations because none of my friends liked it and I heard a lot of negative things online. After watching, my feelings are mixed.

My rating: 6/10

Positives:

-The characters were fun. Enid and Wednesday had a good dynamic. I wish Enid was shown more.

-I enjoyed watching it with my mom.

-I like mysteries, so I liked that portion of the show.

-Thing was great. I really enjoyed his parts throughout the story, and his relationships with other characters.

-I liked how Wednesday gained a group of friends that didn't really make her change too heavily as a person.

-The dance scene was fun, along with what happens at the dance.

Criticisms:

-The pacing. The last few episodes felt very rushed, like they crammed the bulk of the mystery into the end. The big battle at the end felt anticlimactic and too short.

-I did not enjoy the romance arcs Wednesday went through. I was here for mystery and Addams family shenanigans

-The Addams did not feel right to me. They didn't feel like the Addams family. They got some of it right but it just felt off to me

-Character arcs felt rushed. The group of friends Wednesday had at the end felt out of nowhere. We never got to see why Bianca and Wednesday started trusting each other. Was it the fact that Wednesday won the boat race? Or the thing with Bianca's mother? Either way, maybe I missed something but I wish this was fleshed out more.

-The jokes fell flat for me. Some were funny but a lot of them didn't land. The titles were all focused on the same joke as well.

-I wish Enid and Wednesday's relationship had been focused on more. Same with all her friends really.

-The CGI and monster designs did not look good. The main antagonist monster looked like the zombies in plants vs. zombies.

Other statements:

-Do we really have to show a character throwing up on screen? I hate that this happens in shows and movies so often. Ew.

-I thought Enid not able to fully "wolf out" was going to be an LGBT metaphor, especially with the lycanthropy conversion camps mentioned, but she ends up "wolfing out" anyway at the end.

-I would have liked this show better if it was an original new cast of characters. This just didn't feel like the Addams family. Wednesday having visions and the way she acted makes me feel the show would have been better if she was just her own different character instead of making her Wednesday Addams.

-I don't know how well the message was done. Especially since the pilgrim guy was so easy to defeat. His hypocrisy was never addressed either, since he was technically a monster as well.

-Wednesday did have quite the plot armor. I think this also would be solved if she was her own character and not from a beloved franchise. We all knew they wouldn't kill off Wednesday or Thing because these have been beloved characters for years. Becomes a bit predictable.

-Cool that Eugene had two moms! Though literally every other character was straight so. You tried I guess.

-oh my god if I see y'all edit that stupid fucking song over Wednesdays dance one more time I'm biting you. She would not like pop she literally makes fun of pop at the end of the show. The song she actually dances to fits way better you all are just cowards.

Overall the rating isn't too low despite my criticism being rather long because I did have fun with it. There's a lot I didn't like and I don't think it's a great show but at the end of the day I don't regret watching it. It was just a fun time with my mom. And she liked it a lot.

Okay, how about Wednesday for 001, Trobed for 002, and TJ Kippen for 003?

literally great choices thank you

001: Wednesday

favorite character: wednesday addams herself. she is so 🫶

least favorite character: the sherif or weems i think

5 favorite ships: wenclair, the background lesbians i don’t know the name of, that’s it don’t care ab the other ones 💀

character i find the most attractive: jenna ortega loml

character i would marry: in my heart i wanna say wednesday but also i think enid is very sweet and would make a lovely wife

character i would be best friends with: i feel like me and enid could get along very well. also i kinda rock w bianca

a random thought: i wish tyler and xavier had more personality they didn’t give what i wanted to be given

an unpopular opinion: the plot was predictable and the love triangle was lame, wednesday did not show any interest in either of those boys (not unpopular with the gays but some of these people on tiktok geez)

my canon otp: literally no one

my mom-canon otp: wenclair

most badass character: the show is literally named after her

most epic villain: the hyde but specifically when he’s transforming and his eyes are just comically big and he looks stupid

pairing i am not a fan of: xavier x wednesday and tyler x wednesday

character i feel the writers screwed up: all of them

favorite friendship: wednesday and eugene

character i most identify with: wednesday i guess not really tho

character i wish i could be: also wednesday

002: Trobed

when i started shipping them: early 2921 when i started community

my thoughts: they were so queercoded and from a story telling perspective a lot the plot lines can really only make sense if they were romantically inclined but dan harmon was a coward and they liked benefiting from trobed shippers without wanting to make them canon. but they are in my heart.

what makes me happy about them: they are so utterly in love but like they care so deeply for each other. they made each other feel safe and seen in a way they never expected or thought possible

what makes me sad about them: the mutual pining with no closure and how they both found their person and specifically with abed, troy chose to leave him. and abed was hurt but more importantly mad at himself for being hurt because he should’ve seen it coming because that’s what people do, come into his life and make him care about them and then leave.

things done in fanfics that annoy me: i haven’t really seen anything, i guess i’m mostly bothered when the voices of the characters are wrong or when they’re written out of character?

things i look for in fanfics: angst 🫶 but also shenanigans and closure

my wishlist: idek i just want them to be canon community movie don’t let me down 😭

who i’d be comfortable with them ending up with if not each other: i really can’t picture them with anyone else except maybe troy and britta and that would make me upset so

my happily ever after for them: abed is a successful director and troy is a billionaire but he finds odd jobs both for plumbing and ax repairs just cause it’s fun and easy and he doesn’t charge much bc he doesn’t need the money. they live this nice ass house bc they’re nerds and would love something big and dumb and fancy (but at the end of the day all that letters is they’re together). troy is a dog person and abed is a cat person and they fight ab which one they should get until they both come home with their desired pets and simply accept this life. i don’t know if i see them having kids but i’m not specifically against it

003: TJ Kippen

how i feel about this character: love and joy

any/all people i ship romantically with this character: cyrus goodman

my favorite non-romantic relationship: buffy for sure

my unpopular opinion about this character: his redemption arc could’ve used a little more arc, i feel like there was a jump somewhere that i would’ve liked to see happen

one thing i wish had happened in canon with this character: i wish we got to see more dynamics with other characters. i would’ve loved to see him with jonah more or andi or i think bex/bowie even cece could’ve been so so interesting. also i think the kippen siblings is so fun and i would’ve love to see that. also the dumbass trio. i crave that chaos.

favorite friendship for this character: canon, cyrus. non canon, the dumbass trio.

my crossover ship: none
