@local-meme-lord concept idea of Sylvester being hired by Mortimer's parents to take care of paperwork but ending up taking care of little Mortimer himself is too good of an idea and now I absolutely need a movie on that

An Afternoon in the Attic

Eudora and Morticia sat at the poker table of the cards room in the Addams Family mansion, playing their usual game of poker. Morticia noticed that Eudora was not playing the game as usual.

"Grandmama, You're not cheating. What's the matter with you?" Morticia asked her mother-in-law, concern in her tone.

"Oh, I don't know, Morticia. I was just thinking about my gift."

"Your gift?" Asked Morticia, rather incredulously.

"My clairvoyance...I was thinking, perhaps I should make a career out of it. Make a psychic phone service. Maybe pitch a TV show. Go the circus circuit again. That would be fun, wouldn't it?"

"Oh nonsense, Grandmama. You have a perfectly comfortable life." Lectured Morticia. "Why would you want to put yourself through the gruel of everyday work? You know you've always gotten by with swindling and cheating alone. What would Father Addams say?"

Eudora tapped the table and just looked into the distance.

Eudora had cared for her four children--Gomez, Pancho, Cosimo, and Fester--in the old country with her late husband. Life was simpler there, and though she didn't have objections to living in New Jersey, she had always wanted to do something more with her life.

Sure, her sons are grown and she now has three grandchildren that she adores and an entire household to feed, but the dowager matriarch of the Addams clan knows that Morticia is the head of the family now, and though she's there for support, she misses being at the helm of something--whatever it is.

The old house belonged to her husband's family, passed down through generations of Addamses, and though she's a part of the house as much as every cobweb and peeling wallpaper, she sometimes feels that she should be elsewhere. She felt that she was just another ancestor in the attic, haunting the hallways, shambling to the kitchen and cackling in stormy evenings.

Whenever she thought about her age, she would always remember her in-laws. Mortimer and Delilah Addams were probably the best in-laws anyone could have, and she might've loved them more than her own parents. Oh how she adored them, how they adored her! And how she wanted to be just like them.

It was odd for her sometimes to think of them as Great Grandpapa and Great Grandmama Addams, because she felt it was just yesterday that she was a young bride, just out of law school and having spent most of her youth conning people in Eastern Europe. Now everyone calls her Grandmama, and the name just stuck. She doesn't mind, of course, but she always thought it weird that there's not a lot of people left that still call her Eudora--well, above ground, anyway.

She remembers the afternoons she spent in the attic with her husband, recalling the wonderful adventures they had together in the old country. Oh, how much an axe could bring up memories! World War 2, The Spanish Civil War, and her wedding! And how time flies. Now her husband has joined the Addams ancestors in the great beyond. What did he leave behind other than his legacy, his removable eyeballs, his hereditary baldness, and a trunk full of memories?

Now Eudora spends her afternoons throwing axes. Oh sure, she has arthritis and phlebitis, so on her good days she decides to put her joints to good use and be grateful that she could still swing them past her hips. She doesn't bring out the axes too often these days--last time she brandished them was when the tax man came.

Maybe it's best to leave the axes behind. Some things are best kept cherished and left where they were. It's time for new adventures. Everyone has their own lives, and as much as she loves being a parasite, she loves being a predator even more.

A collection: times Mortimer Lightwood is described as being 'founded on' Eugene Wrayburn:

Despite that pernicious assumption of lassitude and indifference, which had become his second nature, [Mortimer] was strongly attached to his friend. He had founded himself upon Eugene when they were yet boys at school; and at this hour imitated him no less, admired him no less, loved him no less, than in those departed days.

Mortimer parries thus, with a sense upon him that elsewhere it is Eugene and not he who is the jester, and that in these circles where Eugene persists in being speechless, he, Mortimer, is but the double of the friend on whom he has founded himself.

‘You wanted to tell me something, Eugene. My poor dear fellow, you wanted to say something to your old friend—to the friend who has always loved you, admired you, imitated you, founded himself upon you, been nothing without you, and who, God knows, would be here in your place if he could!’

To whom, add Mortimer Lightwood, coming in among them with a reassumption of his old languid air, founded on Eugene, and belonging to the days when he told the story of the man from Somewhere.

Seymour: [Croaky voice] My sisters love me now, but oh, Persy sure wasn't too thrilled to have me as her baby brother back in those days! [Soft chuckle] She wanted me dead.

Tycho: No, I'm sure she was just adjusting.

Coraleye: Yeah! I bet it all changed for her when she saw your handsome little face.

Seymour: It took her some time to warm up to me. Even then the little shit preferred her animals and imaginary friends.

Coraleye: [Smiles] Uncle Bo...

Kirsten: And she wasn't even the one they considered "troubled." Gwendolyn, now that's the one they had to watch out for...

Gwendolyn Darling

Mr. and Mrs. Darling often wondered what kind of personality —if any— Gwendolyn would have developed if it weren't for the invention of the modern television. Her entire demeanor was made up of pieces of tidbits she collected from her time spent in front of the screen.

Despite the children from school finding her rather strange, Gwendolyn navigated social settings with ease. She'd smile like a dazzling silver screen starlet, and crack jokes like a beloved gameshow host.

Persephone Darling

Persephone was a very grumpy and irritable child. often opting to keep to herself due to her crippling social awkwardness. As Seymour explained, her only real friends were creatures with feathers or four legs, as well as those conjured by her imagination. But where she lacked in cheerfulness, she made up for in athleticism and harbored a profound passion for animals. Persephone maintained an active lifestyle and found enjoyment in a variety of sports, spanning from swimming and ball games to the art of ballet.

As Seymour's due date drew closer, a knock on the door followed by the family dog barking madly signaled an unexpected visit from Agnes's nephew, Mortimer—a visit undoubtedly orchestrated by Cornelia. As if he were being forced to recite the offer against his will, Mortimer reluctantly extended his services to babysit the girls, as her days grew busier with a new baby. Agnes appreciated the offer and could've certainly used his help, but she knew well that Mortimer, being a teenage boy, would likely rather be off doing something else, rather than tasked with keeping an eye on his younger cousins.

Agnes remembered back to her sister Cornelia's assertion that Mortimer's best friend, Bella Bachelor, was beginning to "smile at him in a different way now." Struck with a clever idea, Agnes proposed a deal to Mortimer: If he would be willing to babysit the girls and take good care of them during her labor and the early days with the new baby, he could bring Bella along to assist him. Considering his mother didn't allow him and Bella to be alone anymore, Mortimer lit up like a lightbulb, and eagerly accepted. He did request, however, that Agnes not mention Bella's involvement in this arrangement to his mother.

And it sure was lucky the Darlings got a babysitter just in time, for not long after, in the early hours of the morning at 4:27 AM, on All Hallow's Eve, the Darlings welcomed a bouncing baby boy with little babydoll eyes. They held him close, celebrating the first happy birthday of many more to come.

Gaston taking everything as a challenge considering he’s said something as ridiculous as “No one orders decaf like Gaston!”

It soon devolves into “No one cares for Yuu like Gaston!”

“No one protects Yuu like Gaston!” *Punches Mortimer*

“No one spoils Yuu like Gaston” *Blows his life savings on buying things for Yuu*

And then Ashton Vargas and Gaston get competitive on who’s the better father figure for Yuu, and everyone is just so tired of these macho meatheads

I love Coach Vargas. He's such a sweet guy and such an overprotective uncle for Yuu.

He and Hercules are like those himbo bros that are like:

When the staff (except Trein because he doesn't really seem like the type to me) come to the club it's like this:

Crewel: Sitting with Cruella as they talk about fashion and do whatever rich stylish people do as he keeps a keen eye on Yuu. He's rather friendly with Roger and Anita as well. He probably brings his own dalmations which hang around with Pongo and Perdita's lot and he loves to dote on all of the 101 Dalmation dogs.

Sam: his friends from the other side know Dr Facilier's friends from the other side. His shadow and the shadowman's shadow are practically BFFs that love to make mischief, cause trouble for their humans and chase Peter Pan's shadow. He's very chill with his OG counterpart and the two discuss their voodoo, hoodoo and the things they've never even tried.

Vargas: CHAOS, CHAOS, CHAOS! Who let these two gym bros get within ten feet of each other. Five seconds after meeting their engaged in the most dramatically serious/tense arm wrestle of the century. Behind them, Hercules and Luisa Madrigal are hyping them up as a crowd forms and cheers. Abu is seen stealing from the betting pools that are forming as the staff try to get everyone to calm down. The two then try get Yuu to get to eat four dozen eggs every morning to help her get large.

Gaston's a meathead but he's an alright meathead in this AU. I guess that part of the reason that he likes Yuu is because she lets him talk about himself (which he loves to do - but so do most villains). She's always impressed when he shows off, like when he plays with darts (but he has to be refrained from 'expectorating' by the other villains who really don't want to see any of that).

He also thought that it was a good idea to proudly give her a rifle that was then immediately confiscated by Minnie.

(Gaston: But Mulan gave her a sword!

Mickey: Do I look like the type of mouse who would tell Mulan what she can or can't give?)

Lefou is cool to hang around with. He's like Kronk and Smee where he's a good guy that does evil things because they genuinely care about the villain and aren't villains themselves.
