#the other spooky family

[stayspookymockingbirdlane]

Morticia: I'm cold.

Gomez, without hesitation: Take my jacket, mi amor.

----

Lily: I’m cold.

Herman: What? *taking off jacket* Now- now I told you to bring more layers but of course you didn’t listen and now- *piling scarves on Lily* Now look, I’ve got to make sure you don’t freeze and- *putting a hat over Lily's head* How long have you been cold? You should’ve said something sooner, dearest.

----

Marilyn: I'm cold.

Cousin Itt: *distressed gibberish before he races to get her a hot drink*

Hello, Clownsuu

I have question if there boundaries on your mob au? Like NSFW and such

Iv mentioned it quite a few times on my side blog but I haven’t quite discussed it much here-? So I should probably mention it here too to be thorough!

I do not mind one bit on nsfw art of my au as long as you follow (other) Clown’s rules before mine! (Properly tagging etc etc)

I do not have much rules myself besides these core ones:

-No sus works of illegal behaviors (and I don’t mean murder, you know what I mean!)

-No sus works made of my personas (my characters are fine, but my personas are a BIG no no)

-and please do not send me sus asks in my main blog, my second one exists for a reason!

#“We’re evil but we aren’t monsters!” #Another mob barnaby quote NHCHJDHD #I’m not family friendly here either but it’s much much more tame than the other blog #Other blog is spooky lmAo #Welcome home mob au #not gunna tag the other stuff since this is solely for the mob au

I had a realisation yesterday about FaaF and my own ocs

Not to mention they're all gods and royal

#spooky arts #faaf au #gods and pawns #NOT THE HAIR AND SCARS TOO....THAT FUCKING FLOORED ME WHEN I WAS DRAWING THEM #the second and last ocs' designs are still a wip. first time drawing Kaya (the second lady)...ever. she just sat in my head for years #technically Abel isn't her bio kid but they're her husband's and they see each other as family so who the fuck cares #to be fair calling their family situation complicated is an understatement #my ocs #also. pk 🤝 kaya; bug #oc: mephistopheles #oc: kaya #oc: abel

'It’s like the sun has entered Gary’s very soul. Every part of him burns with those words as they pound with each beat of his heart. Engulfing his body in divine flames, he is consumed entirely. This is all that exists.' - Chapter 1 of Better the Devil You Know

finished editing the first chapter of a project I wrote 2 years ago and plan to finish in November. it's a wordy, indulgent fic about my two favorite traumatized men from a campaign long, long ago.

it is explicit in nature, though the first chapter is mild, the content warnings are marked in the tags.

#[static] #wolf writes #dnd fanfiction #18+ Seriously please and thank you #I've been wanting to select some fics to work on for NaNoWriMo since those have been nagging at the back of my mind for some time #so I thought it'd be a good time to dust this chapter off and get excited to write and complete the other two #and yes i know the difference between incubi and succubi #oskov's got only succubi on that side of the family tree so though he's mostly a human man he's got a quarter infernal from his mom's side #it's all just fantasy fun #not my go to kind of writing but it was interesting to do! i do prefer eerie horror and spooky stories which i have plans for in the future #fingers crossed the link works it is giving me trouble on my computer but i can access it on mobile just fine

Bingo. And the worst part is their complete lack of self awareness. I don't remember any instances in the films when he gave and she took? I almost want to rewatch them now but meh lol

Oh yes i do also get put off by the oversexualization it's so try hardish. The two flirted quite often in the series but I see people go way overboard with them to the point of lunacy.

Oh it's not that I necessarily dislike the 90s version, I just found them to be a bit over the top, overrated and not worth all the hype they generate year round. Raul Julia was just putting on his best John Astin immitation yet people call him the greatest Gomez of all time? I think Angelica Huston looked okay in the part but I don't get why Millennias and Gen Z crowned her as their Mortisha when Carolyns wonderful and decidedly more...ahem upbeat performance is right there. Christina Ricci turned an adorable and morose little girl into an unlikable psycho in training. Christopher Lloyd's Fester is a disgusting perv. I could go on. As far as i'm concerned, granny was the only character in the movies that did a great job that honored the og actress

Yep.

I think a lot of these shippers wish they themselves had someone slavishly obsess over them like the most important person in the world, so they’re giddy to see it get validated by the AF. I strongly suspect it’s why they call Herman x Lily “boring” or unhealthy, because heaven forbid BOTH parties have a need for affection and attention while simultaneously respecting each other’s independence and hobbies outside of their spouse. I get a lot of husbands do not give as much as they take irl but Tish just acts like she inherently deserves to be worshipped while never having to reciprocate, and Gomez seems fine with the arrangement. That’s not a relationship based on mutual love and respect. (Seriously, I feel like therapy would do him good... Remember when he had a complete breakdown in the movie? Is he manic depressive? Anxious? I’m worried for you, Gomez!) I don’t understand how these are usually the same people hating on couples like Disney or rom coms or whatever when they’re no different, definitely no worse, than Tish x Gomez who are completely codependent unlike those ships.

TBH I do like Raul, he’s talented and he did try to make his Gomez relatively close to Jon’s which I respect as someone who prefers the old show, but I don’t disagree, people act like he invented Gomez himself. Anjelica being so loved makes sense when you think about it, Carolyn’s Tish is pretty much a normal wealthy housewife in terms of personality- docile, prim, proper, ladylike. People don’t respect these qualities anymore (when there’s nothing wrong with any of that). While AH’s Tish is still prim and proper to a T, she is also noticably colder and snarkier and downright catty at times. Add in a worshipful rich husband and children she doesn’t have to raise* and she’s every “I’m not like those stupid preppy girls” goth girl’s dream. Carolyn’s Tish was quite different from the comic’s but ultimately she’s still nice and friendly so I prefer her. Do goths need to always be mean or something?

Fester was never my favorite character, and while I don’t really have an issue with him in the movies (besides the perv part you mentioned), I’ve actually never liked Christopher Lloyd as him, as good an actor as he is. Christina Ricci was a very talented child actor but  my gosh, her Wednesday is honestly one of my least favorite characters ever and the whole reason we have a generation of girls who think they’re interesting for hating pink or fashion or whatnot. It’s fair to say the OG kids didn’t have much personality but I’ll take that over being a murderous little bully. (And of course, the perky suburban camp kids and attractive blonde Debbie are so over-the-top evil the movie practically forces you to side with the Addams, which is a message I don’t like.) Pugsley I guess is fine. I forget he’s there sometimes lol. Same for Lurch and Thing. Totally agree on Grandmama, she’s always been my favorite character and Carol Kane is hilarious. Cousin Itt also deserves a mention for being far more open-minded than the rest of his relatives are.

my two fave comics updating today is literally the highlight of my day

#obvs one is residuum #the other is called micoverse and is written by my friend and you should read it #she's been updating every sunday without missing a single day for five years #and if you like found family and mystery and teens getting into spooky supernatural trouble #then you will DEFINITELY like micoverse #don't make me reblog the ''why you should read micoverse'' powerpoint i'll fucking do it

mm. so with that across the way from nancy's house being family house,

dire maria vc: so you mean to tell me my friends were quite literally stepping stones away from where i was being kept and left huh-

#'couldnt find me? didnt hear me huh? mm........interesting.....' #( tbf i know the sections nancy personally used are all VERY secured and closed off - not even johnny gets access w/o her frankly. #and im sure he has his own lil section that he keeps at least *mostly* locked up and closed off etc so he can toy around as he wants. ) #but i DO find it very interesting how close both properties actually ARE. also that its very possible maria could hear bits and pieces #of the basement brawls going on - being so close and the tunnels so echo-y. w/ danny arriving at nancys first/last from the others #but also how that opens the door to nancy AND johnny being on his ass while hes there. the struggle fighting feral landshark & spooky bitch #on top of eventually taking thomas / bubba for a ride. #also?? the thought that for sure that is family house - it means when you escape from that back garden exit you wind up running along / pas #nancy & johnnys so its like - theres still very much A THREAT of getting caught??

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! AKA THE GREATEST HOLIDAY OF ALL

#It's the greatest holiday of all because it's just dedicated to spookiness and candy #while the other holidays are all about... love and family and all that bullshit #not to mention how depressing they are....

[widowshill]

also. i dont actually think the format detracts from the horror at all. did we all not see grimace shake.

#ok well maybe that assumes everyone thinks that the grimace shake trend is also horror but i would strongly argue in favor #➤ ooc. ┊ she’s nauseous，she’s hysterical，and she’s exhausted. #the one element of it i'm still thinking about is how unnerved am I Actually when watching and for the most part.. not often. #although i've been finding the ghost quentin stuff more genuinely unnerving than most of the other spooky action #ive been scared once and that was the jeff clark jumpscare #cover em in blood and ghosts and monsters and ancestral sins. your attempts at a happy rewarding family life are futile #that's horror to me #they can strive towards human level romances and petty dramas but like. they always get Gotten by the deeper horrors.

I wish I liked Wednesday more but she's actually kind of a butt

#she's a little jerk to every single person on this show #she's Not Like Other Girls #her whole character strength is supposed to be that she doesn't care what others think but that turns out to be her flaw #which would be smart except they still celebrate it #they still act like it's Fine and Right for her to be a jerk to would-be friends or significant others or - OR - #-people who just want her to be okay? people who care about her but expect nothing from her? yeah she's awful to those people too #and her relationship with her parents sucks. especially her mother #she's just a total brat to Morticia for NO REASON except that for some reason she's obsessed with being unlike Morticia? #and the whole thing about the Addams Family is supposed to be that they're creepy and kooky and a little spooky BUT- #-they LOVE each other just like (if not more than) an ordinary suburban family would #they're a macabre play on the stereotypical suburban family of the 50s and 40s BUT the charm is that their wholesome lovingness is dialed u #dialed up to A THOUSAND for each other #and you only see that in Wednesday's show between the parents and between Wednesday and Pugsley #when canonically all four should be loving to ONE ANOTHER #anyway - wednesday's child is full of woe because you won't let her grow and change and be creepykookyspooky AND outwardly caring #she is not a relatable character unless you're comfortable in a morgue and you cried when your pet scorpion died (it's supposed to be Homer #((he's a spider)) ((not a scorpion)) #(((get it RIGHT NETFLIX))) #wednesday #wednesday addams #wednesday netflix #wednesday season 2 #the addams family #doverstar's thoughts #text post #opinion piece

nothing scarier than when someone you haven't met before already knows your name

#i don't care how long they've known my parents it's still a lil spooky #and im still getting used to people other than friends and family using my new name #personal tag
