targeted ad - microfic
Wednesday stepped into her shared bedroom after the sun had set one evening, finding Enid holding out a little blue bag with orange drawstrings. She wore a beam of a smile so big, it practically hurt Wednesday’s eyes as much as the offensive color scheme of the package clashing with her overly printed sweater.
“Finally, you’re back! I saw this on Insta, and I know you’ll think this is totally lame and not your thing, but it’s also - fully you.”
Wednesday tried not to wrinkle her nose. “I believe we’ve spoken about you giving in to targeted advertisements on my behalf. You have to stop allowing corporations to get the best of you, Enid. The American dollar is worth less every day, partially due to the over consumption of cheap goods manufactured overseas.”
Rolling her eyes, Enid pulled open the strings of the bag, still wearing a smirk. “These aren’t cheap, okay? And yes, it was targeted at me, for you, and I’m aware I’m playing capitalist games, or whatever,” She said in Wednesday’s classic deadpan voice. “But this one got me right through the heart and I couldn’t help myself. You only accept dead-accurate shots. So, reach in!”
Giving her own eyes a spin, Wednesday placed her backpack on Enid’s colorful quilt on her bed and closed her eyes, reaching into the bag. Her fingers gripped around something surprisingly soft and squishy. Pulling it out, she stared harshly at a six-inch wide plush raincloud, with a severe frown stitched onto it with a face and…feet.
“Isn’t it so cute!? And what totally sold it – guess what the name of it is?”
“Sunny,” Wednesday quipped flatly.
“Amuseable Storm Cloud! That’s what your dad calls you sometimes!”
“I can’t say I find it amusing,” She grumbled, placing it flat on her palm, taking in how the legs sort of dangled over the edge while it pouted.
“Well, I think it’s very fitting. Thing likes it!”
The hand gave a thumb up from where he appeared over Enid’s shoulder. Enid picked it up the plush with a little squeak of a sound, squishing the sides of it together before holding it up next to Wednesday’s face, giving a delighted nod. “Yup – as I expected. You’re twins.”
“The doctor said I ate mine in the womb,” Wednesday argued.
Enid continued to glow, skipping across the floor and putting it on a shelf next to one of Wednesday’s taxidermized squirrels. “Not your usual sort of stuffed creature, but for sure – less likely to decompose.”
“I’m very good at my craft. You don’t know what chemicals they put in the polyester stuffing. No doubt some sort of acidic compound that could burn through your skin and lead to necrosis. I’d argue that’s worse than decomposition of the dead.”
“Sounds like a Wednesday Addams personal challenge,” Enid teased, bringing the stuffed storm cloud back and waving it in front of Wednesday’s face. “Give it a hug – see if it causes you to burn from inside to outside!”
When she didn’t move a muscle, Enid carried on, “Unless, of course – you’re scared to hug a plushie. I get it. Very intimidating to show such vulnerability in the privacy of your own room.”
Without betraying a single movement of her face, Wednesday reached out, squished the plush creature to her chest, then threw it across the room when Thing snapped a picture of the moment on one of Wednesday’s old timey cameras and the flash went off.
Enid chastised him and picked it up as Wednesday sat herself at her desk, pretending not to be any further fazed. Enid sat the plush beside her typewriter and slid a hug over Wednesday’s shoulders, holding on for about ten seconds. Just when Wednesday felt her about to pull up, she lifted a hand, clutching her arms together over them before turning her face upside down to look at Enid – where her frown would be a smile.
“Thank you for thinking of me.”
“Always, Storm Cloud.”

Jellycat Autumn/Winter Collection 2022
Hey fellow Jellycat enthusiasts! It’s no secret that the new collection has been released by stockists as of yesterday. We probably won’t get an official catalogue on the Jellycat website until September/October, so I did everyone a favor and put together a catalogue myself using Google Slides! Now no one has to scroll through blurry photos! These photos are not blurred and have the names for each design listed! I have also included a few IRL and fun catalogue photos at the end of the slideshow.
In total, there are 102 new designs, which include a few books. I’ve got a few favorites, which I will be adding photos of on the bottom of this post!
If you are interested in viewing the new designs, please continue by clicking HERE! Enjoy!!! Please be aware that clicking on this link will bring you to the new designs, so if you do not want to see them yet, please don’t click on the link!
After looking, share your favorites with me! Send me something in my inbox to share your thoughts with me on the new collection!!
Credit for the stock photos go to Mertex and Jellycat (duh).
!!! SPOILER WARNING !!!
I am going to add my favorite designs below, so keep scrolling if you’re interested in seeing who I love the most!
Knox Bear captured my heart the moment I saw him, he will definitely join my Jellycat family when he’s available.
Pongo Orangutan has always been one of my favorite designs, but I saw him in a store one time and his tummy was WAY too stiff. When I saw they were releasing a Huge Pongo, my hopes went up a bit, though I won’t buy him unless I see him in a store and can feel his tummy before buying him.
Bashful Mineral Blue Bunny caught my eye; what a beautiful blue! I will be adding this lovely bunny to my bunny family!
Little Tiger is SO cute. I probably wouldn’t cuddle him bc of texture and size, but he’s a tiger so I’m very tempted. His face is very bear like too.

I heard people say that Jellycat sometimes brings back retired plushies. Is that true? And how often does this happen if this is true? Love your blog!
It's true! However, this hasn't happened since the current CEO, who has been with the company since January 2022, decided to make it a thing. He's really been listening to fans on this and the company is also bringing back classics for their 25th anniversary.
Below is a list of Jellycats that are already confirmed to come back out of retirement in 2024, more are expected! 😉

THE PLUSHIE POST PT. 2 (the little guys)
The small but still very important fellas
Tango - Jellycat Bodacious Beak Toucan
Bought January 24 in a closing down sale. I actually wanted him for Christmas but didn’t ask for him in the end, so when I saw him in the sale I was like “hell yeah £5 off”. He’s so silly and cute. Bird plushies go hard
Maple - Wrendale Designs Fox
Bought April 2023. Honestly it was love at first sight with her. She’s really soft and has got a lil pudgy tummy. Also her fur actually looks like the artists, Hannah Dale’s, art style?? If you know who I’m talking about then you’ll know what I mean. My fave fox related item, and I have a lot of fox things lmao (also her name is officially Autumn but like that’s my cats name, it’s gonna get confusing, so I call her maple)
Sebastian - JellyCat Bashful Tiger (Medium)
Bought June 2022 as a reward for finishing my A Levels. He’s usually the plush I take with me on holiday to sleep with, since Cookie Dough is a bit too big. He’s very soft and I love his long tail. A handsome boy :)
BASTARD aka Toon Link Plush (Wind Waker HD edition)
The absolute creature of creatures. A Christmas present from 2022. His peak moment was when I put the tip of my pride flag under his tunic and carried him around at the local Pride Parade. I hate him, I want to cherish him. Also my cat hates him for some reason it’s so funny
And now, for the final plush, the one the only…
KWEEBLY - JellyCat Fabulous Fruit Kiwi
The smallest here, but he’s had the biggest impact on my life. I bought him on a whim around the 28th August 2021 and he proceeded to be the biggest comfort I could have ever asked for. I carried him around in my bag for most of Year 13 when my mental health hit rock bottom. He’s been squeezed, thrown at walls, bitten etc etc but I love him dearly. I don’t need his assistance as much now, as I’m in a better place, but he still sits in my bag just in case. Any of my irls mutuals on here know the absolute icon that is Kweebly, dude was a mini celebrity in the sixth form common room. Also my acnh island is named after him
I love my plushies smh and obviously I have more but these are the ones I usually cuddle or take with me to places

Name: Ricky
Species/Brand: Jellycat
Acquired: July 2022 £22 ($27)
About: A celebrity. I have finally bought him. I’d say I held off a long time in buying him since my favorite animals are frogs! It’s because he was so expensive for grumpy bean bag ok? I decided I should treat myself on my vacation because Jellycat is everywhere in England! It is a London based toy company after all~ I also had the pleasure of picking him myself as I looked for the most pathetic looking one. Something i cant do when buying online.
Do you guys pick plush based on features when you can in stores?
