I know in my heart of hearts the Wibberly siblings would love and relate to A Series Of Unfortunate Events. I mean

Kate and Violet: a responsible eldest sister suffering under the responsibility of caring for her younger siblings through incredible dangers. Also has an important habit (Violet tying her hair up while inventing, Kate fiddling with her locket for comfort.)

Michael and Klaus: a bookworm middle child whose penchant for research comes in handy rescuing them from trouble. Also he wears glasses.

Emma and Sunny: a youngest sibling who can and will fight people, and win, despite her small size and her opponents being bigger. She’s also very sassy.

Also

An evil count/countess causing all sorts of problems

family secrets TM

at least in one version of the story the youngest child forms something of a friendship with a seemingly intimidating man (Emma and Gabriel, Sunny and Fernald in the Netflix adaptation)

sword fight (many in TBOB, one major one in ASOUE)

buildings burning down (one major one in TBOB, so many in ASOUE)

a variety of settings the kids explore including the mountains, the city, islands, etc.

children in mortal danger

adults who want to help the kids survive but also have ulterior motives or other priorities (Dr Pym especially in TBOB and basically every adult in ASOUE but specifically Justice Strauss, Aunt Josephine, etc.)

the kids using aliases at some point

my favourite stories - 2/? - The Emerald Atlas by John Stephens

Time, Kate was learning, was like a river. You might put up obstacles, even divert it briefly, but the river had a will of its own. It wanted to flow a certain way. You had to force it to change. You had to be willing to sacrifice.

Things we all forgot (or don't talk enough) about tbob!

- Magnus, the first one!, had a family (wife and kid) and was their death (plus his village death) that led him to became what we all know (yes, he was cruel and stuff BUT HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WHEN HIS FAMILY WAS ALIVE!)

- Magnus and Dr. Pym were probably friends... (Magnus in Emerald Atlas refer to Pym as "Old Friend"...), as my friend said they're old.

- Ms B had a son and she decided he couldn't live in the same world as her... Then she goes raise orphan kids...

- Rafe fell in love with Kate by dreams... (MY GUY?! Dark romance?!)

- Rafe probably snores at night and when he laughs it's the same ("... Isn't that u projecting on your favorite character cuz u do the same?" ... Maybe... but I have a crooked nose so I know what I'm talking about!)

IF I REMEMBER MORE, I'LL UPDATE U!

Kate Wibberly is the patron saint of older sisters because I too lived my teenage years with my younger brother and sister causing havoc around the house while i dutifully cleaned up the mess and also spent my childhood trying to hide my anxiety in certain stressful situations while holding their hands tightly (one of them not being scared in the slightest)

albeit with a little less trauma

I’m absolutely obsessed with the concept of Eldritch Horror!Wibberlys. Basically the Wibberly siblings remaining changed permanently and physically because of the Books of Beginning, even after the series ends, making them not quite human anymore. For instance;

Emma - She runs cold. Even on the hottest summer day, her skin is cool to the touch. - Ravens and crows can be spotted nearby in the trees wherever she goes. - She hears the voices of the dead in every wind that manages to ring in her ears, or when she's really dizzy. - The scar on her hand, where the knife went clean through it, aches whenever something dire happens. - She still sees shadows, omens, not all the time, but sometimes. Usually around reckless drivers or people in hospitals. - She can see very well in the dark. - She's drawn to rain and mist, and will linger in it for a long time. She never seems to grow cold or clammy. - Every once in a while, for a few hours, food tastes dull and chalky to her, like what she encountered in the land of the dead. - In certain lights, her freckles look silver, the same shade as the metal bits on the Reckoning's cover. - Whenever she watches a movie or TV show, or reads a book, she can always guess what characters are going to die, and she's right every time. - Her voice is more decisive and commanding now. She comes across less as a brash girl or petulant child, and more as an authority figure, as the judge of the dead that she is.

Michael - He runs hot. His skin is warm to the touch, no matter how cold the air around him is. - Whenever someone around him cries, he finds himself crying too, as if he is sharing their pain, or relief, or joy, or laughter, whatever emotion it is. - He almost never becomes sick, and he's far less prone to injury than he was before, though he still remains clumsy. - He is incredibly adept at reading the emotions flickering across people's faces. - Sometimes, if the light hits his face right, his skin seems to glow. In the same vein, his eyes look almost red when he's around flames. - Plants and animals are drawn to him and respond well to his care. - His fingertips are calloused, as though they've been pricked over and over with a stylus, and it allows him to touch hot objects without burning. - On occasion, usually once every few months, he falls asleep and dreams that he's a different, random being, living their whole life. - His memory for names and faces is impeccable. - He becomes overstimulated at events such as concerts, where many people are gathered in close quarters. He can feel all their heightened emotions acutely, and it makes him feel as though he's feverish. - His blood looks darker, more like ink than anything.

Kate - Her sense of time is incredibly accurate, and she's very aware of the minutes passing by and dragging on, etc. - There are days she cannot stand the sound of clocks ticking. No matter how quiet they are, she's acutely aware of their sound. - She has a knack for directions, and she rarely ever gets lost. - In certain lights, her eyes flash gold and green, rather than their natural hazel, and her hair seems to shine. - She can see not only the way places are now, but the way they were in the past, and, on occasion, the way they will become in the future. - When things are quiet and still and she is alone, she becomes paranoid that time has stopped and that she's the only one still capable of moving and acting. Whenever it happens, she has to seek out proof that time still moves. - Similarly, when she tells people to stop, they do so immediately, as if they cannot refuse. - The scar on her side, from where she was shot, never fades, and indeed, often appears to look distinctly like a thread. - Her hands are steady, her body rarely shakes anymore. - Sometimes, her dreams are still of things that happened centuries or millennia ago, or of things that have yet to occur at all. - Deja Vu is a regular feeling for her, and her sense of foreknowledge often leaves others feeling eerie. - There are times when she wakes up or gets up and she does not immediately know what time period or place she is in, rather, she feels lost among the timeline, as if in the middle of an immense ocean. - She has a talent for finding what's lost, and she can always, always find Michael and Emma, no matter where they are.
