I’ve been head cannoning Wolverine as Transmasc for a while.
Okay so... so time ago I said that Marc Cherry had stereotypes for characters and that was why some characters from Why Women Kill were similar to those in Desperate Housewives, and I clearly remember saying that Beth Ann was similar to Bree/Susan, but after another rewatch of DH, I've realised that... actually... Beth Ann is Katherine.
Like, she is Katherine Mayfair if she was in the sixties.
And there are certain paralells to it, so I'm going to rant about them:
Them being unhinged: DH shows us something a bit more insane, whereas WWK is more calm in this regard, but both women have mental breakdowns and are regarded at some point as unhinged and even psychos. Katherine has her breakdown over Mike and all of that and tries to ruin his wedding (and his life), but Beth Ann has a similar moment both when she snaps at Sheila and when she makes the choice to kill Rob.
Them being psychos: I mean... they arem, kinda. They both seem to take a point of no return at the middle of their "story". It is easier to point on Beth Ann because, unlike Katherine, she has a closed season where is is the main character, and Katherine doesn't , but both of them have "Psycho" moments throughout their entire storyline.
Murder: Although it is obvious when it comes to Beth Ann, Katherine is also a murderer and yet, just like with Beth Ann, it is okay. In fact, their stories are quite similar in this regard; both of them kill their abusive husbands with a gun and in front of others. The only difference may be the modus operandi and the public, but it is still a pretty similar development and it also marks the end of an era for both characters. Oh, and they both get away with it, too!
Children: even though the development was differently paced, they both lose their children, and then they have another children, if you call it that. Beth Ann loses Emily and then she gets to be Elsie's "aunt", and Katherine loses Dylan and adopts... Dylan. They have to bury their children who died by accident and yet, they end up being mothers again and happy with their kids.
Cheating: although this is much more evident with Beth Ann's story, both women are married to cheater and, eventually, think of leaving them.
Blondes: yet again, the outcome is slighly different, but both women end up with blondes who also happen to be sweethearts and socially outcasts in some way. Of course, Katherine and Robin had a different pace and ending to their story than Beth Ann did with April, but the similarities are there: redhead older woman meets blonde young woman working an awful job, who had dreams, who does not have many friends and is seen negatively because of their personal life, and befriends them. The only difference is that Katherine and Robin actually have a romantic relationship, but Beth Ann and April end up sharing a family in some way, which is the best you could get in the sixties, so... yeah.
Specific traits: I'm sure there are more paralells, but here are some specific traits I think they share: both are redheads with green eyes (the first one is definitely intentional as Ginny has bruentte hair, but maybe the second one is unintentional); both follow the rules and then break them (the reason I thought Beth Ann was shaped after Bree was because of her being all prim and proper, but Katherine is just like that when she arrives at Wisteria Lane, so it makes even more sense); they hide secrets (said secrets are the death of their daughters), they end up leaving the neighborhood with a blonde woman with them...
So... yeah. I wouldn't be surprised if the said Beth Ann is Katherine's distant relative because of the resemblance. Anyway, stan the best characters off the Marc Cherry universe: the sapphic-coded, sassy, crazy redheads who are actually softies and their ray-of-sunshine blonde (girl)friends

Ooh, can you tell me about your favorite couple that you've written?? :D
It’s worth noting that this changes on an almost daily basis, but recently I’ve been reminiscing about Revolution again… Which means I’m being a sucker for Nirov and Genesis.
Like most of my favorite couples, they’re an interspecies pair: Nirov is Akaara male and Genesis is human female. The Akaara are kind of… lizard-like? Ish? The closest visual approximation would probably be Doctor Who’s Silurian redesign, except without the frilled head, far smaller scale patches, and with virtually no nose by human understanding.
ANWAY, these two make it work in a world where there is not just open hostility between their two races, but humans are very much controlled by the once-peaceful Akaara race. (Basically, humanity brought it upon themselves by making incorrect assumptions and starting a war, but still… They have very little rights.) And they’re so tender??? Like??? Ooey-gooey???
Nirov is Highborn, which means he has duties and a reputation to uphold, meaning that he’s under a lot of stress and even has to marry an Akaara female to serve as his beard even though he’s completely devoted to Genesis. (It’s okay - she knows and approves.) But he always makes time for her and trusts her judgment beyond anyone else’s. He is careful to see to his darling human wife’s needs, and in turn, she offers him the love, support, and shelter that an Akaara of his standing is supposed to want.
And together they work for a better tomorrow??? One where the Akaara and the humans can coexist on Earth without either species being oppressed or at risk??? They have a vision and they work toward it together, and they’re honestly incredible.
They’re just so soft, and they worry about each other, and they’re very much in love, and they’re such good people, and HONESTLY they are the sweetest, most considerate couple, and their love makes me want to cry.
TELL MAE SOMETHING: Tell me about your favorite couples you’ve created, ask about mine, or tell me your favorite romantic tropes.
Do you love cupcakke as well?
I don’t stan her, but I stand by what she stands for, is, and does 100% cause she’s’ really talented
