Absolutely Love It When People Are Like Why Do You Like This Fictional Character So Much Look At All

Honestly, I'm actually glad there won't be romance in season 2. I want the series full and undivided attention on setting up the dynamic between outcasts and the world around them.

I want them to dive in deeper into the Hypocrisy of only teaching "the good outcasts", and how/if they are willing to sacrifice their own to save themselves from racism and bigotry.

I want to see the consequences of everyone's actions take a front seat next season. From parental backlash after the Laurel incident, to the fact that there's an entire race of outcasts who were basically born to be enslaved. Heck, I want to see consequences for Wednesday being healed by a ghost, that must've messed up her biology somehow, right?

1. Maybe I'm too much of a slow-burn/angst fan, but that sounds ideal to me. I want them to take time rebuilding their relationship.

2. The Xavier thing is not gonna happen most likely. Netflix pretty much confirmed he was fired, and won't be returning for season 2.

3. I would not be surprised if that were the case. Especially with how much Tim Burton loves Gothic romance.

So sorry for the rambling lol

I've seen people freaking out about there being no romance in season 2, but consider this:

1. It took a lot for Wednesday to trust Tyler, and it will take way more for her to trust him again now, probably another whole season or more.

2. Some people have been pushing a love triangle with them and Xavier, so a romance plot would mean she runs into Xavier’s arms, and most of us don't want that.

3. Misdirection is a huge thing in the age of plot twists and spoilers. Jenna has said "no romance" so many times now that it's getting suspicious. The two points above are most likely true, but there is always the possibility that there is a romance plot and they're lying to us so we don't see it coming.*

*see: everything that was done to keep Tom Holland from telling us about End Game.

Almost forgot this little gem:

Managing to catch the eye of a bad bitch & golden retriever in the same day? Absolute Bi culture 😔🤌

I would like to have a thousand words with the WEDNESDAY writers

Source: Wednesday vs Bianca fencing match (Wednesday's child is full of woe unused script)

I would love to write. but I would also love to lay on the cool damp forest floor and let roots and moss and little toadstools grow over me. so 😌

Wednesday: *removes hand from Tyler's hair to go do something else*

Tyler: ...oh, ok

Hyde: Mate is…evil? Mate is unyielding? Mate is incapable of love? I am running away!!! I am packing my little rucksack and going out to explore the forest as a lone vagabond! I can no longer thrive in this household!!

The man is such an incredibly talented actor! He had a difficult role and he played it absolutely perfectly.

It kills me that Ajax and Wednesday don't get enough love as a BROTP!

Like, the untapped potential these two have? Godly.

I can imagine Enid and Tyler are out on their ninth sparring match for the day, leaving their significant others waiting by the edge of the woods with extra clothing.

Ajax is stoned out his beautiful mind - cause being next to Wednesday is scary - and he just asks her about whatever she's investigating now.

She goes off about the gory details and her personal conspiracy theories regarding "what's really going on", and he:

A: Just hears her out and nods along, which she appreciates, cuz it's nice to have someone just shut up and listen.

B: Says something so enlightened and absolutely fucking BASED, that has her submitting an application to change roommates.

you know when you read one of the most well written well characterized fics of a character and you’re like “FUCK YES THIS AUTHOR UNDERSTANDS” and then in the notes or in a comment reply they’re like “I hope this wasn’t too ooc I can’t tell 😭” or “I’m glad this wasn’t super ooc I was rlly nervous!” like girl this may as well have been a transcript directly from that character’s head what are you TALKING about

also this isn’t author hate obv I luv you guys I just think it’s funny how this happens a lot. fic writers youre amazing <33

Enid: let’s say, hypothetically, that I’d accidentally spilled an entire bottle of nail polish on Wednesday’s typewriter. What would you guys do?

Pugsley: tell her

Ajax: pray for you

Eugene: pray for you

Bianca: I don’t care. But if she asked me directly I wouldn’t lie for you.

Xavier: tell her

Tyler: tell her and deliver you to her

Xavier: oh yeah, I’d deliver you to her as well.

Enid: all of you are dead to me except for Ajax and Eugene.

Pugsley, Bianca, Xavier and Tyler: I’m okay with that.

Weyler (Wednesday x Tyler) + slightly NSFW text posts

This is a moodboard for Smoke Signals by @realmermaid333.

I really really loved this fic - it’s a perfect reconciliation fic for Wyler, set a couple of years post season 1. It’s fluffy and hot and soothes my aching soul. It’s probably my favorite from this author - though all of them are amazing, and you should check out her account. Read it! The Wyler vibes are immaculate.
