While I have opinions on the quality and messaging of this show, I got bored and I made (what may be the only) Stumble fanart. Enjoy my Krystal x Peach (Ship name is pending) 😛 I WANT THEM TO MAKE OUT SLOPPY STYLE IN THE SHOW!
IF Wednesday gets another male love interest (For whatever reason) I want Enid to be the biggest cockblock in the background. Make her get all mad about him trying to get close to Wednesday, make her constantly make fun of his attempts at flirting, make her learn everything and anything there is to know about this man and constantly bring it up when he is around, she is constantly looking around to make sure he isn’t coming, she would grab his wrist if he tries to get close to Wednesday and all these little things to ensure he is just never that close to Wednesday. Like it doesn’t even have to be romantic straight away I just want her to be jealous and petty in the background while Wednesday solves a damn mystery.
I mean I wasn’t necessarily wrong, but I wasn’t necessarily right. I don’t see Agnes as a new love interest (disgusting) but I do love the fact she brings out everything I wanted out of Enid. JEALOUS ENID IS THE WAY TO GO!!
Guys what’s the name of that fanfic where Enid dies and Wednesday gets really depressed and with Goody’s help she goes back in time and tries to save everyone. I think Wednesday also almost looses her leg and ends with a cane in this fanfic.
My favorite scene from Wednesday is constantly misinterpreted and it gets me so mad.
The scene of Wednesday talking about Nero isn’t meant to be a one off thing, it’s meant to be an example of something that happens often in Wednesday’s life.
Societies little to no regard for Wednesday is a common occurrence that has traumatized Wednesday. She is distant, unforgiving, and lacks trust, all of which go so deep it bleeds into her own family. All this didn’t happen from the simple fact her scorpion pet was killed in-front of her (and even if it was only that its still a fucking valid thing 💀) Within even the first scene you see how everyone treats Wednesday, even teachers look at her with disgust. This type of social distancing was confirmed by Wednesday to be the norm in her life, I wouldn’t be surprised if Nero dying wasn’t the only time society had such little care of Wednesday’s feelings.
So while the story on it self doesn’t level up to the same level of trauma that is being disowned by your family and kicked out of your community. It’s meant to be Wednesday’s way of relating to Enid by stating she has never been welcomed in her community, that society had already rejected Wednesday. That she is already in the place Enid fears to be in. And before anyone says anything, yes Wednesday still has her family but that’s not enough for anyone, we are human beings we need some type of human connection with others, even within the show the lesson Wednesday learned was that she needs her peers, she is not immune to the human need for connections.
It is so sad that people don’t want to analyze the scene, that they take it for granted and don’t think of the subtext within it. It leads to people not understanding Wednesday’s character, I’ve seen people call her spoil for thinking her life is so sad because her pet scorpion got killed when Enid was going to get disowned, that Wednesday has no place to talk because she has a loving family. Some of you have never been bullied in your life and it shows, thinking a loving family would solve all your issues is a fucking lie, it definitely helps but as I’ve stated, Wednesday’s trauma with society had gone as deep as bleeding into her family relationships, she distrust people so much it bleeds into her own family.
That scene is literally the best scene to highlight both Enid’s and Wednesday’s personalities and lives, the fact they are meant to be character foils of one another, Enid is accepted by society, she is popular and has no problem making friends, but she is rejected by her family, her community; while Wednesday is rejected by society, she is unable to form friendships and it’s constantly attacked, while her family and community loves her. The scene it’s filled to the brim with subtext and backstory and the makings of a friendship, but people don’t like to think deeper about it.
But anyways that’s my opinion, everyone can have different takes on this, but if you call Wednesday spoil or selfish because of this scene, I will complain about you to my friends.
So one of the leaks talked about how Enid and Esther’s relationship is actually low-key kinda fixed in season two. So here are my thoughts.
Whit Enid finally wolfing out Esther is overwhelming pleased with her daughter, and she spends all of break spoiling Enid. This love bombing continues throughout the first half of season two.
It’s made pretty clear in season one that one of the things Enid wants more than anything is the acceptance of her pack/family, and she finally has that and doesn’t want to loose it, so she gets into a new relationship with someone who she thinks fits the standards of her pack/mother better.
My theory is that Enid kinda becomes obsessed with this new acceptance from her pack. After feeling so alone for so long she finally feels like she is accepted ignoring the obvious conditions on the acceptance. She doesn’t necessarily neglect her other friendships but she doesn’t prioritize them the way she used to.
But, after her breakup with her second boyfriend due to the potential abuse as alluded to by the leaker, Enid realizes what she has been doing and starts focusing on her other friendships the way she used to, especially Wednesday, with the blinders forced on her by her pack gone, Enid is finally able to see how Wednesday has been acting odd.
Enid notices how Wednesday looks over her shoulder more, appears to have memorized Enid’s schedule and is also there to walk with her between locations. Enid is now able to see Wednesdays protective habits and without all the extra time being spent with the pack Enid can help Wednesday solve this mystery.
I really like this train of thought because one of my biggest issues with the leaks is how out of character is seemed for Enid to be especially considering how much character growth she got in the first season. But I think this explains all that. I mean at the end of the day Enid is a 16/17 year old girl who only wants to be accepted by her family. So of course when she finally gets that she will jump into it. 
This also opens up season 3 to explore complex pack dynamics more and build more of Enid’s relationship with Wednesday. Will she choose Wednesday, the pack, or will she be able to prove the pack system flawed?
Anyways this probably isn’t what’s gonna happen but i liked the thought enough to share.
