Wednesday sneaking out in the middle of the night when a hand down clamps on her shoulder
Enid: Where do you think your going?
Wednesday: You don't understand I need to do this!
Enid: No you don't understand! I didn't spend three months running for my life, another month allowing you to nurture me back to my humanity for you to try and throw away the one thing I am living for!
Wednesday: Enid you have more important things to live for
Enid: *grabs Wednesday and kisses her* I don't care about other things I care about you get that through your incredibly thick head!
Wednesday: I'm doing this to protect you!
Enid: I don't want to be protected if it means you being in danger!
Wednesday: *sighs reaching for something* I didn't want it to come to this . . .
Enid: *produces pink taser and shocks Wednesday without hesitation*
Wednesday goes down and drops a ring box
Enid looks at the box but doesn't open it instead returning it to Wednesday's pocket
Enid: We can unpack why you would use that as a threat later
Enid: *turns at looks to Thing* Thing show me everything Wednesday has been working on and if I think your holding anything back because of loyalty I will turn you into finger food
While Thing gets to work pulling all the documents Enid picks Wednesday up and puts her in a roller chair and binds her to it with rope then hand cuffs herself to Wednesday and fills the locks with a hot glue gun
. . .
Agnes shows up to the room in her pajamas to find Yoko, Bianca, Divina, Ajax, Eugene and Pugsley already there going through Wednesday's notes and evidence digitizing them and looking at them under black light for secret messages
Enid: Agnes I hope you got enough sleep, we're coming up with a plan to fight an army of Hydes without risking Wednesday's life
Agnes: Is she okay? *points*
Wednesday tied to still tired to chair but awake, angry, and now gagged
Enid: She has lost her talking privledges, and she is seething with rage I think she might melt her may of the cuffs, are you in or out?
Agnes: What happens if I say out?
Enid: Then Bianca and Divina wipe your mind of anything related to Wednesday until this is over
Agnes: Isn't that a bit extreme?
Enid: I am proving to Wednesday that there is strength in community and I'm not leaving anything up to chance, in or out now
Agnes: I guess I'm in
Enid: Excellent, energy drinks are over there, snacks over there and your team shirt that only reveals under black light there
Agnes joins the others
Enid looks at Wednesday who is glaring at her
Enid: If when this is over you still hate me I'll just have to accept that, but you'll be alive to hate me and that's the only outcome I can live with
Gideon: *goes on for paragraphs in her head how talented Harrow is* *trains nonstop to be a good cav for Harrow* *takes a vow of silence for Harrow* *stays loyal to Harrow even though she hates the ninth* *carries Harrow home when she hurts herself* *forces Harrow to rest* *listens to Harrow pontificate about doors* *stays up for days for Harrow* *offers her LITERAL LIFE to Harrow as a battery*
I’m gonna kill (remembers suicide jokes are bad for my mental health) someone else (remembers murder is bad) on accident (realizes it’s not an accident if I say I’m gonna do it) and I know because I’m from the future (remembers lying is bad) no I’m not (feels guilty) I’m so so sorry (remembers actions speak louder than words) (does a backflip)
I have seen people point how Enid copies or look out to Wednesday, specially for the "WWWD" or that Enid's gay ass decided that the best nail to paint in black is the marital one
But i've seen few people point out how Wednesday actually copies Enid too:
In the final battle with Crackstone she says "Howdy, Pilgrim" and when fighting Lucas and his friends she says "Howdy, pilgrims"
And i could be mistaken, but Enid is the only one who use the world "Howdy" in the whole series, and it's such a jolly world. It's obvious that she picked it up from our favorite werewolf.
i know tamsyn doesn't think harrow is conventionally attractive but i base my belief system on what's funniest and what really makes me chuckle is the idea of harrow being chronically pretty faced. like walking around drearburh with a DEADLY face card under all the paint. BEAUTIFUL deep dark eyes, canonically thick eyelashes and very clear skin. bone structure sharp enough to KILL SOMEONE. the ninth house hasn't served like this since the days of matthias nonius. and that fool nav is so completely blinded by rage and resentment that she literally has no clue
Not to be on my butch Harrow high horse again but if Harrow were literally any other character, a scene where a teenage lesbian (who prior to severe emotional and physical distress ritualistically shaves or crops her hair) is expected to go to some Fancy Dinner by older adults, asks to wear her normal shirt and pants, is refused by another girl (who is, for the record, a rich blonde mean girl) and instead forced to wear a dress, to which she says, with dismay, "I look like my mother," that would be recognized as a nail in the coffin for butch or androgynous Harrow. But because Gideon is there and Gideon is butch, of course Harrow must be femme. Must be high femme. That's how lesbians work, right? I mean, skull face paint is makeup and a robe is just a kind of dress, isn't it?
harrow the ninth Book Of All Time actually. gaslights the audience immediately. doesn’t answer any of the questions from the last book until like 300 pages in. complete perspective shift. complete tonal shift. god is making poe references and meme references in the same breath. blink and you’ll miss it lore drops that are actually critical to understanding what’s going on. so so much grief. Book Of All Time.
Another Wenclair thinkpiece before i go back to my prison (Uni homework)
But i think what makes Enid sacrifice at the end of season 2 romantic, is not the sacrifice itself. Mainly because i think if it where another person there she would end up doing it anyways, that is just how Enid is.
For me what gets me up at night is just the zero hesitation. She told us that:
"Even if she is the tunnel at the end of my life, i couldn't live wihout her in it"
That can be translated to:
"Yeah, she is probably gonna be the reason i died, but she is worthy"
She knew what she gotta do because even if being alone forever is one of her biggest fear, losing Wednesday is the biggest one.
Harrow is an unreliable narrator because she just gave herself a lobotomy, Nona is an unreliable narrator because she was quite literally born yesterday, but Gideon is an unreliable narrator because she is consistently not telling us important details about how she feels about people. She tells us that she hates harrow and wants her to die, but then when harrow is actually in danger she's searching the whole house to help her. She's talking about how she "wants to beat harrow up" but then side comments on she won't because harrow's "eyelashes are trembling with rage"! Don't even get me started on the "evil, loathsome, bad teens" who she tells us she has hostility with, but they seem to trust her more than anyone else in Canaan House...
