The Ink Demonth 2023 - Day 29. Meat
Tumblr media
Day 29. Meat Crossover: The Addams Family Finally, Bendy has the family he fully deserves and fits into! Joey Drew is so dead at the moment... :] The Addams family are one of the most supportive and helping each other families in pop culture!
I love The Addams Family! I'm a really big fan and so far there hasn't been a series that would discourage me (yes, I watched the latest animations, yes, they are embarrassing in places and don't fully capture the spirit of Addams, but they are not so tragically bad that I would suffer while watching them ). The only thing I haven't seen at least partially yet is theatre performance about The Addams Family. But they've been playing it since November at the Syrena Theater in Warsaw, so maybe I'll go there soon :)
Everyone has or has had some unrealistic patterns or models in their lives that they have tried to equal on. Whether it was the figure or appearance of a model or actress, the perfect boyfriend you want to meet from a TV show, or amazing skills in reality show... I had such an ideal - a perfect marriage. And it was Gomez and Morticia Addams. For me, they are the model of a perfect couple who complement each other perfectly and love each other, and are also really charming separately. Few people remember it, because newer productions have lost it, but in older series Morticia devoted herself to the hobby of growing dangerous and beautiful plants, such as carnivorous plants, poison ivy - and roses (because of the thorns; but she always cut off the flowers). She was also a painter and an excellent fencer (the only one to defeat Gomez in this field). And at the same time a loving and supportive mother and wife. At the same time - an icon of sexuality, charm and grace - simply an ideal woman and for me - an unsurpassed role model. I love her character - and that's why her presentation in these two parts of the newest animation hurts me the most, where they turned her into an anorexic skeleton with a domineering, uncompromising character. What happened to my sensitive and supportive Morticia, who likes to be tortured from time to time? Eh...
I also like Wednesday, Lurch (by the way, until I saw the spelling of his name, I was sure his name was Large), Thing, Fester... well, there's actually no character I don't like. Seriously, I'm a huge fan. So when it turned out that I no longer had room for any Addams-related entry, I was a bit sad. And then I said: hell no! I can eliminate Adventure Time (which pissed me off with the ending of the main plot of the series), move Cult of the Lamb in its place, and in ITS place present Morticia in her natural environment! Of course, feeding raw meat to her beloved Cleopatra. Ta-da!
Style of drawing characters was based primarily on the cartoon from 1992 (Hanna-Barbera studio), but I tried to give them a bit of my own style. If I wasn't pressed for time, I would probably colour this art entirely in shades of gray - but I only have one day left and about 1.5 pictures to colour, so... I'm giving it to you as it is - and I think it's great anyway.

Plot wishlist/theories for S2:
Ajax is the stalker.
Morticia will take over the botany position, and Cleopatra will show up.
Pugsley will join Nevermore (thanks to Darklight 23 on TVTropes, for that one), bringing Aristotle with him.
Gomez will run for Mayor.
Nicole, Chloë, or Lisa cameo/recurring role, perhaps?
More Sophia Nomvete!

The Addams Family fanfic, my first. Cleopatra falls in love with Gomez and makes Morticia jealous.
Cleopatra loved to twirl around Morticia’s velvet sleeves but had a penchant for curling around men’s necks. The guests that Gomez frequently entertained were purposefully brought through the conservatory just to torture the poor creature. If she were lucky, they’d pause right in front of her to innocently gander at her beauty. It was then that she’d twirl herself over their shoulders and go in for the kill. She resented Morticia each time she was coaxed off her dinner’s frame.

Weems doesn't die at the end of the season. Nevermore needs a new botany teacher, since the last one was a homicidal maniac, Weems can't find anyone for the position — she distrusts everyone who applies for the position and is afraid to hire another homicidal maniac. With the new school year knocking on the door and Weems still undecided on whom to hire, she decides to do the most unimaginable thing possible, she offers the position of botany teacher to Morticia. The story unfolds in drama, betrayal, longing, polyamory and Wednesday learning how to be decent and treating Morticia with the love, respect and care she deserves.

Wednesday Addams comes down for dinner with their braids cut off. Oh, Wednesday, how could you! Morticia cries. How could you come up with something so beautifuly horrifying? She ruffles their hair and offers to go shopping for new clothing if they don't like what's in their closet anymore. After all, with a ominous hairstyle like that, one simply must have the closet to match
Pugsley shyly brings a 'friend' home one evening. Thing catches them kissing on the stairs. Gomez sits Pugsley down and starts explaining how to court a man.
One of their grandchildren goes by different pronouns every time they visit. They call the child beautiful and give the child knives engraved with each version of the child's name
Wednesday expresses worry about someone they met, alone, struggling to make ends meet, who eventually admits that they were disowned for getting top surgery. There's an extra seat at the Thanksgiving table that year, and showers of compliments on how handsomely their new child has dressed
A grandchild admits that they don't know why they haven't fallen in love yet. That they don't feel normal. "That's alright," Morticia assures them. "Normal is an illusion. What's normal for the spider is a calamity for the fly."
The family goes to Pride, all of the mismatched, odd, terrifying limbs of it. Morticia helps Wednesday paint a rainbow on their cheek
Gomez joins a line of parents wearing white angel wings, his dripping in glorious black, standing between crowds of yelling protesters, a physical wall between the slurs and the hate and his children, his children, as old as the children are. Many protesters are challenged to duels. None of them dare respond.
Morticia sees someone wearing a t-shirt that says 'Free Mom hugs', watches everyone that walks up and clings to them as though it's their only chance at parental contact for months. She marches over and demands one, as much as she loathes t-shirts-- tacky, normal things, they are-- and every child, young or old, there that day gets a hug, an assurance that they are simply stunning, and an offer of newt wing pie and an evening reading Edgar Allen Poe to Cleopatra, should they ever be lonely or afraid.
Morticia reminisces with Wednesday about a girl she once dated, oh the glorious days, and Wednesday smiles slightly, knowing they never have to be afraid to bring someone home. The truth about what girls and boys and non-binary friends they've kissed hovers on the kiss of their tongue They know, too, if they explain that none of it was romantic, that they've never wanted what their parents had, Morticia will listen. She might not understand, no, but will let her child be, to form whatever relationships seem best. After all, how can you raise an incredible child and then not trust their judgement?

Bye-Bye my blue baby
Tumblr media
Summary? Nope, ehehhe. 🤭
Warnings? God yes.; Talks of death and stabbing, Larissas death, graphic depiction of Larissas death, Morticia in great pain, a shitton of angst
------------------------------------------------------
Morticia was in her conservatory when her crystal ball started to glow, being excited knowing it was her daughter, answered, “Hello, my little bat! Why are you covered in blood and who was it?” 
Wednesday stared at her mother for a second trying to work through a way to tell her that Larissa Weems was no dead, so she took a breath and said, “Marylin is Laurel Gates, Laurel killed Weems, she and Tyler kidnapped me, stabbed me but Goody saved me, then Tyler transformed into the Hyde and tried to kill me again, Enid saved me, Crackstone came back to life and tried to annihilate all out casts but I killed him with help, and then I nearly beat Laurel to death with a shovel.” 
Morticia didn’t hear the rest, all she heard was that Larissa, her ex roommate, friend, and girlfriend, was now dead. She didn’t realize she was staring at that Wednesday was calling her. 
Wednesday let out a sharp and loud, “Mother!” 
Morticia snapped back, “Yes, my darling?” 
“Are you okay, Mother?” Wednesday, who was actually worried, asked 
Morticia, while smiling a smile that was clearly faked, said, “I’m alright, my little death trap. How was dear Goody Addams?” 
Wednesday, not buying but humoring her mother, snarked, “Incredibly stupid but now inside of me somehow, she healed me by becoming a part of me.” 
Morticia, who was still clearly focusing on that one detail, merely hummed and said, “Well, as long as you showed no mercy and caused great pain then I am very delighted.” 
Wednesday, deciding to give her mother alone time, said, “I need to go mother, the teachers here are incompetent and have no clue what they are doing. Will you be alright?” 
Morticia, swallowing around the lump in her throat, said, “Yes, I will be quite alright, my little bat. Now go show them what you are made of my darling.” 
And with that, both of them hung up. Morticia stared at the ball and then spoke, “Show me the last moments of Larissa Weems.” 
The ball spoke, “Child, I do not wish to show you that of which will hurt you.” 
Morticia let out an inhuman noise and spoke, “Show me the death of Larissa Weems.” 
The ball made a noise but compiled, and so began an hour long journey of Morticia watching Larissa get injected with Nightshade, drop to the floor, convulse, and ultimately die. Morticia just kept staring into Larissa’s eyes and watching how they shone with confidence, anger, fear, and then ultimately drained of all life. 
Morticia swiped her hand over that ball over and over and over again, tears dripping down her cheeks as she watched the woman she loved die, repeatedly. 
Morticia, no longer able to stand, faltered as Larissa faltered in her last moments, tears now streaming, a scream unlike anything ever heard ripping its way out from deep within. The scream echoed throughout the conservatory, through the halls of the manor, through each room, reaching the ears of Pugsley and Gomez.  
Gomez wisely told their son to stay behind and as he trekked through the hall of the manor, the paintings were weeping with his beloved. He made his way into the conservatory where he saw Morticia, on her knees, one hand clutching her chest and the other her stomach, screaming in pure pain.  
He looked up and was greeted with the sight he never wished to see, a friend who now lay dead upon the ground. Gomez then looked around, even the plants were weeping with their caretaker and Morticia's beloved Cleopatra trying to get to her caretaker to be of some comfort. 
Gomez then snapped out of it and stopped the ball, he made his way towards Morticia but as soon as he tried to gather her in his arms, she let out a piercing cry and sobbed out, "Just leave. Please, leave me here. Walk out and shut the door and leave me to grieve." 
Gomez being Gomez obeyed his wife's orders, he walked out, shut the door, and gathered Pugsley and went for a walk to give his wife space while he did his own grieving for a lost friend. 
Morticia laid on the floor of the conservatory for hours, head lying on the marble flooring, tears streaming down her cheeks, arms curled around herself, broken cry's ripping their way from her body. 
She doesn't know how long had passed when she then felt a hand upon her shoulder and heard a voice, "Really, Mo? I thought you had more composure than this." 
Morticia gasped, whirled around, spotted through her tears Larissa Weems, and let out another broken cry of despair but then spoke in a shaky voice, "Issa! Oh Issa! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry I couldn't help you, I'm sorry I hurt you, I'm sorry I left. I'm so sorry." 
Larissa, no longer blinded by her own pain and anger at Morticia, carefully approached, "Oh Mo, I forgive you. Gomez and I should never have put you in such a position. Come here, my porcelain dove." 
With that Morticia crumbled into the arms of her love. Yes, even after the years she still loved the woman for she had never stopped. Morticia, clinging to the blonde beauty, howled in pain but Larissa just cradled the woman, rocked her, and combed her fingers gently through the raven locks. They stood there for what seemed like hours but in reality, it was just a mere 15 minutes.  
With much pain, Larissa pulled back a little, "Look at me, my dear dove." 
Morticia looked up and into Larissas eyes, they were white. Morticia cried out and looked away once more and Larissa, realizing what happened, altered her eyes back to the gorgeous blue they once were  
"Is that better, my love?" Larissa softly asked 
Morticia, peering once again through tears, spotted the blue eyes she knew and still loves, "Yes. Yes, it's much better, thank you." 
"Morticia, while I did not want to go, I'm glad it was me instead of that hell spawn you call a daughter." Larissa let out with a light chuckle 
She continued, "My love, I forgive you now. I hold no hate, no anger, no bitterness of any kind any longer. My last wish is for you to no longer beat yourself up over the past but live for now." 
Morticia, knowing this was a possible goodbye forever, said, "Alright, I can't promise anything, my stately Sequoia but I can try." 
Larissa smiled, "That's all I ask, my dear. That's all I ever ask. Although I do have to admit I did tear your picture out, not my finest moment but well, no take backs." 
Morticia let out a wet a broken laugh, "I know, but you were always rather beautiful when angry." 
Larissa smiled gently, knowing their time together was nearing the end, gave a gentle smile, "It's coming to an end, Mo. I have to go, my darling. Morticia, I love you, I will always love you, and I will be by your side no matter where you go. I'll always be there Morticia, you may not see me, but I will be there." 
Morticia, holding in a scream of despair, asked, "Can I kiss you one last time, my darling?" 
Larissa smiled and nodded, "Of course you can, my love." 
Morticia gently cupped Larissas cheeks, looked in her eyes one last time and said, "I love you, my shifty shifter." And placed a soft kiss upon cold lips. 
With that Larissa faded and the last thing Morticia heard was, "I love you too, my darling dove." 
Morticia collapsed to her knees, tore her eyes open, glared at the heavens, face crumpling in anguish, then she let out a gut wrenching cry of despair that made even the devil shed a tear. 
Wrapping her arms around herself and collapsing to the floor, Morticia lay there screaming in pure agony, tears streaming down her face and all she could think was, "My love is gone, never to return."

Why Nettles is so Pyramids by Frank Ocean Coded.
Tumblr media
Now that I'm officially back, I've decided to prove myself and my love for this character by using one of my favourite artists, Frank Ocean.
@bohemian-nights is one of my oldest mutuals and seems like the best person to tag for this wild ride. Also, we had an interaction about it once.
Before I begin, I'm gonna put a great video analysis of this song because you all should listen to it.
youtube
Now let's get started.
What is Pyramids by Frank Ocean?
It's basically a nine minute story like song that focuses on a 'Cleopatra' like figure in two different time periods. One as the original 'jewel of Africa" being stolen from a Pharaoh by a man promising her the future and one as a sex worker working at "The Pyramids" to live day by day. She remains a mystery throughout the entire song as we are told about her through the experience and expectation of her by different Narrator's, a servant, the Pharaoh, her love interest/ the thief, A pimp that sleeps with Cleopatra and her unemployed boyfriend.
All that aside, go listen to the song. It's one of if not Frank's best and it's an experience the first time for sure.
Tumblr media
Swiftly moving on,
NETTLES AS PYRAMIDS
Okay, the breakdown was important because I'm gonna break it down similarly to reflect Nettles.
ACT 1
PART I
Tumblr media
Think of this as a reflective part of the story. A summarization of what's to come in the story.
"Set the cheetahs on the loose" is equitable to the death decree on Nettles.
"There's a thief out on the move" reflects both Sheepstealer and Daemon.
"Underneath our legions view" both Rhaenyra and the Mootons who are sworn to her. Daemon is also directly beneath Rhaenyra.
"They have taken Cleopatra" in the song you learn that Cleopatra goes willingly, but from this perspective, she is taken, similar to the accusations against Nettles with both Daemon and Sheepstealer.
"Run, Run, Run, come back for my glory" is Rhaenyra saying that she needs Daemon back at her side but also an allusion to the idea that Nettles might not be a dragonseed, and is a question to the legitimacy of Targaryen Exceptionalism.
"Bring her back to Me" the decree call for Nettles head but also the idea that Daemon would be free after her death.
"Run, Run, Run, the crown of our Pharaoh/ The throne of our queen is empty." Daemon does take the place of a "queen consort" during the dance with the added title of protector of the realm. It's important to note that the dance was a war to see who would sit the iron throne, and with that in mind, Rhaenyra is being challenged, with her crown being challenged, Daemon is also not there, leaving the throne empty.
The repetition of Cleopatra takes different meaning to what's missing.
PART II
Tumblr media
The first 2 lines are in reference to Alyn and Addam of Hull as the bastards of Corlys and who are now black in the series. All three of them (even Alyn) are now viewed as precious things in the 'future' as recognised dragonseeds and riders. Later on, their loyalties and position in this new place are also questioned "in a rocky world."
"Our skin like bronze and hair like cashmere" in reference to the new matched appearances of the Driftmark dragonseeds to house Velayron as all are played by black actors (allegedly).
The rest of the verse is dedicated to the "Fall of King's Landing," where Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen ascends the throne notably with the Dragonseeds flying and ensuring no challenge to her reign as soldiers in the war.
Daemon Targaryen famously takes Nettles to Maidenpool "underneath our legions view, they have taken Cleopatra" to put a stop to the burning of the Riverlands. The thief in question is still Nettles as she is accused of enchanting the prince.
PART III
Tumblr media
Now, this time, the refrain is a set up to the prompt given to us by Mysaria, "Even now, she shares your husband's bed, and soon enough she'll have his bastard in her belly."
The jewel of Africa, however, refers to the decree where Rhaenyra says Nettles used spells to bind a dragon to her. "What good is a jewel that ain't still precious?" is a constant question throughout fire and blood and with the Targaryens who were very selective with who got a dragon up until the reign of Viserys. The idea that only Targaryens can control dragons leads to their power and without that illusion, it is questioned. Nettles is proposed as an active threat to this in the narrative.
"How could you run off on me? How can you run off on us?" is Rhaenyra in both reference to Nettles, alluding to the betrayal she thinks that has occurred and Daemon, with their marriage and rule over the kingdom. Her decree specifically wished for his return.
"You feel like God inside that gold
I found you laying down with Sampson and his full head of hair."
Daemon gets Nettles gifts and clothes to wear during their time in Maidenpool. He dresses her differently and seemingly spends all his time at her side. There isn't a mundane activity described that he doesn't spend with her.
Mysaria, Rhaenyra, and the Mootons agree to the idea that she was near or in his bed. The only reason the decree isn't followed is because the Mootons fear the wrath of Daemon, similar to Sampson and Delilah, where his weakness seems to be nothing until they learn about his hair, they fear him until that point. Unlike Delilah, Nettles is only accused of harming Daemon and is ultimately protected by Daemon's legacy, "6 men or 60 men, he's still Daemon Targaryen."
The Black Queen is Rhaenyra in this instance with bad dreams being the decree and the potential barm thar is wished on Nettles by her. This part is from the perspective of Daemon.
Part IV (ACT 1)
Tumblr media
At the end of their story, Nettles is sent away for her protection by Daemon, who then decides to fight Aemond Targaryen, alone, an established suicide mission in the narrative. Aegon can also be the referenced "he" who killed Cleopatra
Later on, Rhaenyra is killed by her brother Aegon and his dragon Sunfyre. Theories surrounding alternate timeliness where Daemon went back often end with Rhaenyra surviving the dance at his side.
The serpent in her tomb can be Mysaria, who led Rhaenyra down the path of destruction against the advice of more trusted advisors like Corlys. Cleopatra historically died with a snake bite.
ACT 2
Part 1.
Tumblr media
Perspective change.
Daemon Targaryen spends all his time with Nettles. They eat, bathe, sleep, and fly together each day, returning to Maidenpool, where this behaviour is documented by the Maester.
Their dynamic is consistent with the Mootons where they fly and track Aemond, returning to Maidenpool to defend the Mootons in exchange for hosting them. She is, in fact, working.
The song alludes to Cleopatra in the future being pimped out, seen through the perspective of either a pimp or client alluding to her boyfriend.
This perspective could also be taken by the Maester recording these interactions between the prince and Nettles, watching her, and hearing of their activities through the maids, recording it.
Part II
Tumblr media
This part is only given to Daemon Targaryen.
The baths they took were described in the narrative as such,
"Soaping her back or washing the dragon stink from her hair, both of them as naked as their namedays."
Now the idea that they were actually sleeping together in light of this information is an easy conclusion to come to which informs the rest of the verse until, "ride, cowgirl".
Her love in the narrative is no longer free because men can pay to sleep with Cleopatra, and a shared love within the relationship is now a job for her but still a way to connect for him.
Within the fire and blood narrative, however, Nettles love is no longer free because of the danger of the mission they embark on every day. If they meet Aemond on the route, she can lose her life in the fight in exchange for being housed in Maidenpool, a transaction to continue this illicit relationship away from the eyes of the court. Her love was also always a danger as she is an unknown mistress of the Prince Consort of the Realm, a risky position at any time but especially during war with the threat of heirs and the grief and wrath Rhaenyra experienced during this time.
ACT II (Part 3)
Tumblr media
In the end, Nettles gets away. The singers say Daemon finds her, and they live out their days in the Mountain of the Moon, in the Vale of Arryn where she is alleged to be the fire Witch the burned men worship. She's working at the pyramids (buildings often constructed as tombs for old rulers to ascend from and live on through).

The evolution of Morticia Addams (2)
Step two of Morticia’s “life” : the 60s television series. Here is the sitcom Morticia, as played by Carolyn Jones.
Tumblr media
Of course, due to being played by Carolyn Jones, Morticia couldn’t keep the “ruined beauty” and withering style of the original cartoon. Her appearance still stayed the same - thin, tall, pale, with long dark hair, and a tight-fitting hobble black dress. But she is now much more conventionaly beautiful, as well as much more “glamorous” in design. Her robe doesn’t look as much torn out as elegantly cut, her hair is much more lush than in the drawings, and we can also note the addition of a few jewels: a jeweled ring on the finger, a small necklace on the collarbone... This is a much more classicaly elegant gothic lady, a more... “aristocratic” look. They even hint at her paleness not even being natural: she rather uses baking powder as makeup! 
On a similar note, for the sake of acting, this Morticia lacks the emotionless of the original cartoons. She isn’t a perpetual blasé as Charles Addams conceived her: she is a pleasant, charming, happy woman/wife/host who smiles and laughs (though quietly). She can be prone to anger or jealousy sometimes, and we see her shed tears. She is emotive (though not much more emotive than regular people - just more emotive than her original incarnation). But despite these emotions, she stays the calm and quiet member of the family - in front of her husband’s reckless, enthusiastic, extravagant behavior (or Uncle Fester’s), she is a voice of prudence and reasons who advices caution and is always ready to prepare a nice cup of henbane to soothe people’s nerves. Even her movements are restrained by her tight-fitting dress (which makes her only more “elegant” in gestures). In fact, it is this quietness that makes her bizarre in the eyes of normal people: where the original Morticia’s lack of visible emotions made her eerie, Jones’ Morticia disturbs people because of how calmly, quietly and normally she reacts to the most unusual or distressing things. 
Tumblr media
The Morticia of the 60s television series was designed to be the opposite of the “classical” couples seen on television. She was designed to not fit in the classical “bickering couples” seen so much on sitcoms: she deeply loves and cares for her husband and family, she is the one that easily gets worried for them whenever something seems to go “wrong”, but she is also willing to make sacrifices or changes for the good and well-being of others. Her feuds with Gomez are rare and memorable, and most of the time just based on misunderstandings easily solved. This is part of Morticia’s general kind and caring behavior: she is always displeased by seeing people unhappy, and always ready to help them... in her own ways. She can still be stern and firm though, for example if someone tries to flirt with her (she reminds them that she is married and a faithful wife), or if someone is rude to her or her family.
On the other hand, Morticia does fit a lot of the classical tropes of the 50s and 60s sitcoms, notably by fitting (in her own way) the “housewife” role. Unlike in the original cartoon, for example, she is seen cooking and preparing all sorts of things for the family: meals of unusual meats (such as alligator’s), stews with unusual ingredients (eye of newts and other bizarre things), or cups of henbane instead of cup of teas. Like her original version she likes knitting, but here she knits sweaters for various members of the family (she likes to send gifts to distant cousins, aunts and uncles) ; and her passion for plants of the old cartoons is translated here into a full passion for gardening. But unlike a traditional 50s housewife front-lawn garden of little flowers, Morticia feeds regularly a greenhouse of exotic carnivorous plants with pieces of meat, her favorite (and most notorious) being Cleopatra, an “African Strangler” often seen bothering the Addams’ guests. And unlike traditional gardeners, when she picks a flower about to bloom, it is to cut its bud off.
Tumblr media
Despite playing several of the classical “housewife” tropes, Morticia is also quite unique as she is a very talented and cultivated woman with talents for various domains : a recurring topic of the television series is her picking on a new hobby or a new occupation, and excelling at it, but sometimes getting too passionate and neglecting her husband or family as a result. As such she has been seen to be a very talented writer of children stories, an excellent painter, and a quite gifted sculptress - she fits very well with the “strange bohemian family of artists in a little traditional suburban neighborhood” vibe the show intended to display. Among the many talents of this woman are also musical ones: she is from time to time seen playing music, notably with a Japanese shamisen. (Because you know, back in 60s America everything that was too foreign in nature was just weird and bizarre). 
While the show did not made Morticia as ghoulish as her original incarnation, they still tried to kept little hints at her inhuman nature here and there - notably with the most memorable joke of her character. “Can I smoke?”. Morticia loves to “smoke”, but what she means by that is crossing her arms, and having smoke come out of her body. Several details and elements of the show also strongly hint that Morticia is actually a witch (ranging from her wearing a pointy witch hat from time to time, to her ancestry going back to Salem, and the witchy nature of her immediate relatives - because in this show she is the “outsider” part of the Addams clan, due to being born in the Frump family, close friends to the Addamses, but still not of the same bloodline).

Hi, I was wondering if you could an Xavier Thorpe x addams!reader fic where there's a Addams family reunion and she's introducing him to everybody
It’s an Addams Family Reunion
Of course I can! Hope you like it, mi vida. My first Xavier Thorpe x Addams!Reader fanfic
Pairing: Xavier Thorpe x Addams!Reader
Summary: When Y/N is getting ready for the Addams Family Reunion, Xavier decides to pay her a visit
Warning: probably none
Y/N Addams is Wednesday's younger sister by a year. Much like Morticia, she sees positive things in her visions and has a more optimistic outlook on life. She has been dating Xavier Thorpe for a few months, when the fall semester ended early, Xavier have cellphones to both Addams girls. They are currently FaceTiming each other.
"What are you doing tomorrow, sweetheart?" Xavier asked as he was sketching.
"Well...I have a family reunion this weekend, tomorrow we have family flying out so I gotta make sure the house still has cobwebs and I need to feed Kitty and Cleopatra." Y/N said casually.
"There are more Addams? Who are Kitty and Cleopatra?” Xavier asked.
"Yes, there are a lot of us, and Kitty is our pet lion, Cleopatra is one of my mom’s plants. But I'll be busy tomorrow and the weekend, I'm sorry, pretty boy." Y/N said and she watched Xavier blush.
"It's fine, my love. Does the reunion start on Friday?" Xavier asked
"I think it does, yea. Pugsley is going to be playing with dynamite with our Uncle Fester when he stays in our house. Before you say anything, yes, it's perfectly safe...for us anyway." Y/N said.
"You Addams really are kooky." Xavier stated.
"Wednesday prefers spooky, but I agree. I need to walk Kitty, gotta go, okay." Y/N said.
"Yeah, I'll call you tomorrow." Xavier said and they hung up. There was a knock on her bedroom door.
"Y/N, darling, Can i come in?" Morticia asked.
"Sure mom, come in." Y/N said, putting away her phone.
"Were you talking to your boyfriend? The Thorpe boy?" Morticia asked.
"Yes mom, I've been talking to him. What did you what to talk about?" Y/N asked.
"Is he going to come over? I haven't seen him since Parent's Day.” Morticia said.
“I’m not sure, actually. Does Kitty need a walk?” Y/N asked.
“Your father is already walking Kitty so don’t worry. Tomorrow Cousin Itt and Uncle Fester are coming along with your grandmama, okay.” Morticia said.
“Okay, mom.” Y/N said, when Morticia left the room, Wednesday came in.
“Sister, when was the last time we saw the whole family?” Wednesday asked Y/N.
“It was for Pugsley’s Mazurka 2 years ago. Is the house even big enough to have the family reunion here?” Y/N asked.
“Maybe it is, it would be great to see Uncle Fester again though.” Wednesday said.
“Yeah i know, you’ll see him tomorrow.” Y/N said and with that, Wednesday left Y/N’s room.
Skip to Friday, with Gomez Addams being old money rich, their house was enormous and fit all the relatives. Everyone was sitting down, eating the food that Lurch had prepared for them. Then Y/N heard a knock on the door.
“I’ll get it!” Y/N yelled and when she opened it, she was surprised to see Xavier standing there is nice-ish clothes. “Xavier, I can’t believe you’re here, come in.” Y/N said, stepping aside to allow Xavier to come inside.
“Wow, your place and family are bigger than I thought. And there’s just a lion walking around, cool, no need to be scared at all.” Xavier said nervously.
“Um yeah, my dad makes a lot of investments and deals, he makes a lot of money without even trying, it’s his gift.” Y/N commented offhandedly. “Is it okay if I introduce you to everyone? I don’t want them asking questions.”
“Yeah sure, I can’t believe im meeting your entire family in one day, this is getting serious.” Xavier said.
“Oh yes, very serious, i expect a promise ring next month.” Y/N said teasingly, trying to calm his nerves but it didn’t work. “Im kidding, let’s just go.” Y/N looped her arm with Xavier’s to introduce him to everyone. “Mom, dad, Pugsley, you remember Xavier, right?”
“Oh yes of course, you gave the girls phones, I assume they are on your phone bill.” Gomez said.
“Yes, yes they are, don’t worry Mr. Addams.” Xavier said.
“No need for formalities, hijo, Gomez is fine.” Gomez said.
“Would you like to play with explosives my Uncle Fester gave me?” Pugsley asked Xavier, trying to be friendly.
“Not right now, Pugsley, I have to introduce him to everyone.” Y/N said,
“Maybe after.” Xavier said, making Pugsley smile slightly. Then they went to another family member.
“Cousin Itt, this is my boyfriend Xavier, Xavier, Cousin Itt.” Y/N said.
“Nice to meet you.” Xavier said and Cousin Itt chittered in reply.
“He said nice to meet you too and he likes your hair.” Y/N ‘translated’ for him.
“I like your hair too.” Xavier told Cousin Itt.
“He says thank you, I’ll talk to you later Itt.” Y/N said and then walked away.
“Is he made out of hair or does he just have really long hair?” Xavier asked Y/N.
“I Don’t know how to explain it…he has arms and legs so I guess he just has really long legs.” Y/N said.
“Can you understand him when he talks?” Xavier asked.
“Yes I do, it’s an Addams thing.” Y/N said. She later spots her Grandmama and Uncle Fester, deciding to introduce them to Xavier. “Grandmama, Uncle Fester, this is my boyfriend Xavier.”
“Oh wow, you are so very handsome, and tall too, you bagged a good one, Y/N.” Grandmama said and Y/N looked embarrassed while Xavier laughed a little, feeling flattered.
“Thank you, grandmama.” Xavier said.
“Call me Eudora.” Grandmama said.
“I hear Y/N talk about you a lot, it’s nice to see you in good lighting.” Uncle Fester said.
“Yeah, he was in the Nightshades library when you were there with Wednesday.” Y/N explained to Xavier.
“Oh, It’s nice to out a face to the name then.” Xavier said. Y/N has introduced Xavier to everyone from Ophelia Frump to Dr, Flambe, Uncle Knick Knack, Great Auntie Sloom, Aunt Petunia, and the spirits of Granny and Grandpa Frump (yes I googled the extended Addams Family). “I met everyone, right? Please tell me I met everyone.”
“You met everyone, guapo, trust me, you met everyone. Wednesday is currently dancing with Cousin Lumpy and Monday Jones.” Y/N said, looking at Wednesday dancing with their cousin.
“Do you want to dance?” Xavier asked.
“Really? Right now?” Y/N asked,
“Consider it…a do over from the Rave’N.” Xavier said, having his hand out for Y/N to take it. She took it and began to dance to the harpsichord that Lurch was playing.
“Thank you for coming to the reunion, you didn’t have to.” Y/N said.
“You were busy yesterday so I figured why not come over today. Is it okay if I sleep over though? That way I can get on your family’s good side.” Xavier said.
“Why would you need to be on their good side?” Y/N asked.
“I don’t know about you, but I see this relationship lasting at least a year, maybe more.” Xavier commented.
“You do, huh? Well…what if I told you the same thing? That I can see our relationship lasting i graduate from Nevermore. What would you say?” Y/N asked Xavier. Xavier made a pensive face, spun Y/N out, then spun her back towards him.
“I would say that’s great, because I love you.” Xavier said. It’s the first time he said it too.
“I love you too, Xavier.” Y/N said, and they leaned in to kiss each other.
“My life has become so much better since you and Wednesday started Nevermore.” Xavier commented.
“Even after Wednesday accused you of being the Hyde and getting you arrested?” Y/N asked.
“Yes, even then, because you were by my side every step of the way, I liked that you visited me in the police station.” Xavier said.
“Of course, I wasn’t going to let my boyfriend go through such a tough time alone.” Y/N said, kissing his cheek.“My life has also become better since I met you.”
“I think I should go play with Pugsley’s new explosives. Hey Pugsley, I’m ready to play now.” Xavier shouted when he saw Pugsley playing outside. So now Xavier and Pugsley are both outside playing with the explosives Uncle Fester got him and Y/N was just watching them have fun. She then felt a presence near her.
“You really like him, do you?” Wednesday asked.
“I love him. We love each other actually.” Y/N said.
“And he met the entire family, he didn’t faint when he saw Kitty, I was hoping he did though. He handled our family really well, I must say.” Wednesday commented. “He could definitely be an Addams.” Wednesday said.
“Yeah, I think he could be an Addams too.” Y/N commented, looking at how Pugsley hugged Xavier after blowing up something with his hand grenade.
