Finally, some good fucking content

The kids aren’t alright- they’re stop motion.

miscellaneous things i appreciate about wendell & wild:

-the nuance built into kat’s punkness. yes, she absolutely is a contrarian rebellious teenager, but it’s also genuinely how she’s always been. it’s not portrayed as rebellion for rebellion’s sake, it’s kat’s way of reasserting her identity and her connection to her parents when she’s spent years having her choices stripped from her.

-how many of the characters like kat. raúl sees a kindred spirit. siobhan wants to be her friend and is being kind in the way she knows how. sister helley reaches out to her even before she becomes a hell maiden. wendell & wild are in awe of her. ms. hunter doesn’t let her position prevent her from treating kat like an individual with agency and importance. it’s heartening that kat, a character defined by guilt both personal and state-issued, is coming into a setting where people genuinely want to see her thrive.

-the future sequence where it’s revealed she stays in rust bank and helps restore it to its former glory made me cry. it’s what they all deserve.

-no one has any “it’s my style” excuses for whitewashing when w&w gave us a litany of black characters with individually distinct features.

-even the demons have more emotional intelligence than your average corporate CEO.

-“you don’t get to smack me”

-when all that’s left of the memory monster is the memory of losing her parents, kat hugs it, letting it dissolve into her. she’s acknowledging that the choices she’s made and the things that’ve happened to her have gotten her to this point, but she’s absolving herself of the guilt — embracing her past instead of hating herself for it.

-raúl’s struggles as a trans boy aren’t framed as oppression porn. siobhan’s accidental deadnaming is just that — an accident— and undoubtedly one she’ll learn from in the future. his mother supports him without reservation. kat doesn’t even make note of it. they could’ve easily added catty smiles, tired sighs and “wait, you’re trans?” moments, but they didn’t. raúl is a human being whose transness informs his life without being crushed by it.

-siobhan’s arc is wonderful. she doesn’t become kat and raúl’s personal savior, she doesn’t angst over what she has to do, the story never becomes about her — but she uses her position (read: her class privilege) to do what she can. she becomes part of the solution.

-i know the last two points read like “duh, everyone should be doing that” but it’s such a relief to have a film get these things right, unapologetically so and without a core of virtue signaling. it’s nice to not have the stories we want told held for ransom, then declawed by producers because pissing off uninspired rich people would be bad for business.

the way siobhan's character was played was a refreshing surprise, and i'm very happy that she wasn't posed as a minor villain. its extremely easy to introduce a group of three young girls and make them your minor villains, with little to no questioning from the audience as to your motivations. the subversion of her at the end makes that feel almost silly; siobhan is a little girl. obviously she isn't being malicious in calling Kat "kay-kay", or Raúl his deadname. obviously she isn't being malicious in believing the best in her parents. i enjoy her earnestness, and i enjoy that she chooses to change; it isn't a trait young girls are often afforded in media.

they're not a bad kid but they had to do it 🐟

— went back and forth on this the whole time I was working on it but. I like the end result more than the other sketches I was messing with

Just finished watching Wendell and Wild, so I had to give some attention to the best girl (and goat!)

[bvnnyface-oldaccount]

Love how Siobhan finds Kat so neat we’ve all been there girl

im still here

To appease the Wendell and Wild fandom and the Owl House fandoms…

I made Kat, Raúl, and Siobhan Hexside students. Kat’s in the Bard and Oracle covens and has Bearzabub as her palisman (let’s say it was a gift from Sister Helly), Raúl is in the Abomination and Illusion coven and has an axolotl palisman, and Siobhan is in the Healing coven with Gabby Goat as her palisman.

I didn’t know what to do for Sweetie and Sloane, but if y’all have ideas, please comment and let me know.

If I had a nickel for every time there was a blonde kid with dark skin who was kinda a dick to the main character (but that’s because their parents are assholes and they don’t know any better)

Who appeared in a piece of media with their plots revolving around the concepts of heaven, hell, and the afterlife

I’d have two nickels

Siobhan Klaxon I think she is kinda barbie + Gabby the goat

wendell & wild headcanons of varying seriousness

-father bests never found out which of the demon brothers were which

-kat’s hair is naturally green

-someone manberg knew (most likely a relative) was a hell maiden

-bearz-a-bub is tethered to rust bank, obligating helley to stay at RBC and keep watch over it rather than put distance between it/her and manberg. other locations have similar plot devices

-manberg was born with phocomelia, rather than having lost his legs to a demon attack

-siobhan is encouraged to wear contacts and relax her hair by her parents; post-movie kat helps her relearn how to put in braids

-delroy was in a garage band in college and wilma was working on a master’s in molecular chemistry

-hell maidens (if not humans in general) are to demons what guardian angels are to humans, and coming to the living world is the closest demons get to ascension (though it’s treated more like moving to a vacation state than that)

-helley and manberg have gotten in at least five slapfights, four tug-of-wars with bearz-a-bub, and two HR interventions over the years

-bearz-a-bub shows significant bias to any hell maidens near it and its answer to if it missed manberg would’ve been “no”

-raúl came out to marianna by asking if he could get that trans sticker he has on that composition book

-wilma and marianna were good friends in college and did regular mixtape exchanges
