when Wednesday has had a very deep sleep it takes her a moment to remember how to speak english once she wakes up.

and by ‘a moment’ i mean it can take anywhere between ten minutes and and hour + a quad over ice

the first time Enid witnesses it is the first night she falls asleep in Wednesdays bed, she wakes up sprawled over the other girl, and Wednesday who had spent the night feeling something similar to being buried alive, wakes up speaking spanish.

her dark eyes are filled with sleep, her hair is tangled, there are sleep lines over her arms and chest, her voice is soft and sounding like honey

she’s out of it for a good 20 minutes, just holding Enid and mumbling to her in a language she doesn’t understand, Enid though is in heaven

Wednesday is pretty sucky at doing things gently, she never does something half-way, so when she holds Enid, she does it like she could never let go. she holds tight, and Enid, the girl with super strength and the biggest heart, will always love the way Wednesday loves.

Enid wasn’t much of a morning person, always one to sleep in until the last minute, but now she finds herself savoring her mornings being held by the love of her life.

Wednesday whispers sweet nothings in spanish while colorful claws untangle knots in dark hair.

Yeah. Mornings are quite wonderful now.

(Enid has also deemed this period of time “Wednesday’s factory reset mode”)

the Wednesday series is so silly goofy for even IMPLYING that gomez and morticia wouldn't know how to cover up a murder properly, let alone that Wednesday would be unironically scandalised by learning her parents had killed someone. like...do the clowns writing this show actually understand the premise/ethos of The Addams Family? why does this show constantly have them allying with/grovelling at the feet of institutions?? why bother making a show about Wednesday and by extension the Addams family if you're not going to honour their competent oddness and satirical anti-establishment roots? and that's before we even get into the weird ass colourblind racism all throughout this show. I cannot believe there's a scene in this show where morticia addams, a white woman, tells a Black man he has "no idea what it's like not to be believed." I can't believe that the ringleader of the bullies who is bigotedly abusing the "outcasts" is a young Black boy. The antiblackness is insane. like, really? it's so obvious there are next to no poc in significant creative roles on this show which is so fucked considering they not only made Wednesday Latine, but made her ancestory an integral part of the series. I feel like a broken record at this point, but surface level diversity in casting means absolutely nothing so long as the people holding creative control are white. It's just elaborate puppetry, and too many of you fall for it everytime. All this show does is use actors or colour to pay lip-service to the "whitewashing" of history, while the show itself is written and directed almost exclusively by white people. As far as I can tell there is one director of colour, Gandja Monteiro, who directs 2 mid season eps. Every single other person in creative decision making roles is white. It's an absolute JOKE.

i’m currently writing a fic where Wednesday develops the Hanahaki Disease over Enid and I’d love to see your interpretation of that if you’re ever looking for something to draw 🫶

Sorry it took me like forever to draw this, I kept getting distracted.

(hope you don’t mind I’m using this as a test for an art style I’m working on lol)

I have head canons the the flowers that grow in the afflicted persons lungs are always their crush’s favourite flowers.

Enid: And this is the love of my life! Wednesday Addams!

Stranger: Oh nice to meet- OH MY GOD.

Wednesday: I feed on the blood of the innocents.

Stranger: *runs away*

Enid: Willa!

Wednesday: What?! It’s funny wasn’t it?

Y/N: my life without you is a walking death

Wednesday turns around a smile on her lips…

Wednesday: continue

Y/N: you’re the creeping shadow that follows me. The chill that runs down my spine. The specter that lays waste to my very soul

Wednesday shutters…

Y/N: cara mia

Wednesday: mon cher

The two embrace and kiss…

this scene was 10x more emotional and romantic than any scene between them and those boys

Wednesday: I dare you to run at that tree branch full speed and try to stop before you get impaled

Yoko: Do I get a bigger prize the closer I stop to the branch?
