Just saw a comment on FB calling the 60's sitcom version of The Addams Family "the most functional tv family".

No freaking kidding! I mean, look at it: Gomez was treated as the head of the house. Morticia was supportive of Gomez, never put him down, respected his authority- and Gomez, at the same time, respected her boundaries ("Morticia, that's French!" "Gomez, later, we have an important matter here" "Ah, yes, later"). They supported each others ideas, goals, dreams, and rarely, if ever, called them silly.

Their kids were well-behaved, knew the rules, and followed them. Yeah, they did some really weird things, but they were not out of line with their family. They were taught to respect their parents, because their parents respected each other and their kids (this is a very important distinction, because respect is learned by watching, not by being lectured).

Anyone who came into their house was welcomed as family. Crazy old Uncle Fester, who arguably causes more trouble than any other single character in the show? Chide him a bit for threatening to shoot someone in the back, perhaps, but he still gets his own room. Grandmama needs someone to look after her in her old age? Set her up with a crystal ball and a gypsy tent in the living room so she can carry on her profession as a fortune-teller while still being surrounded by family. A detached hand that somehow managed to come to life has nowhere to go? Take him in and set him up with a system of tunnels under the house and boxes that open only from the inside so he has a private place to feel comfortable while still being a part of a family. Got a butler that looks a bit like Boris Karloff and is somewhat introverted and doesn't like to talk? Pay him well, give him decent servant's quarters, thank him for everything he does and let him know at every opportunity just how much he is appreciated, and give him as much time at the harpsichord as he wants (besides, he plays it beautifully and the whole family loves to dance). Heck, there were times that Lurch was treated like he was Gomez or Morticia's brother or something- I mean, there was a whole episode where Lurch's mother came to visit, and Gomez and Morticia pretended they were the servants- of their own house!!!

And then Cousin Itt has his own miniature room for whenever he comes to visit, and the entire family, instead of insisting that he try to get over his speech impediment, just learned how to understand him. Gomez made arrangements for his mother-in-law, Granny Frump, to get pampered beauty treatments at a high-class health spa, and insisted that Granny Frump was a lovely woman (and if you haven't seen that episode, Granny Frump was played by the same actress who played the Wicked Witch of the West). Morticia's sister Ophelia had a terrible habit of body-slamming Gomez, for whatever reason, and while Gomez didn't seem terribly fond of her (understandable), he never turned her out of the house, and he never said a bad word about her, because she was his wife's sister, and he loved and respected Morticia too much to disrespect her family.

And anybody that came into their house was treated just as well as the rest of the family.

It's never been expressly stated just what the Addamses are. Witches? Vampires? Ghouls? Maybe just a conglomeration of supernatural creatures? Whatever they are, they're one of the best examples of a loving, respectful family I ever saw.

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.

✦✦✦ ✦✦✦ ✦✦✦ ✦✦✦ ✦✦✦ ✦✦✦ ✦✦✦ ✦✦✦ ✦✦✦ ✦✦✦

Much of your life changed after you and Sukuna worked together to forfeit his fingers. The two of you still owned the little white house where your family was created, but that was no longer where you resided. You both agreed to try to visit it at least once a year, but the house you were living in now made it much easier to adapt to domestic life. Or as domestic as one could get when you’re married to the king of curses. It was an adjustment but now it was just you, him, Kiseki and the female curse who’s been around almost since the start. It was a bit of an odd dynamic, but one that you wouldn’t trade for the world.

It was this very dynamic that probably led to your costume choice for this year, Morticia Addams. Since Kiseki had just started learning how to walk, he was still too young to take out for trick or treating. But you weren’t going to miss out on an opportunity to dress him up in a little costume, even if the two of you were just going to be handing out candy to the neighboring kids all night. You weren’t expecting to dress up at all, but while shopping for candy one day, you stumbled upon the cutest little Cousin Itt costume that was the perfect size for your precious one. It was hilariously cute and you were looking forward to the look on Sukuna’s face when he saw it. Considering how adverse he was to a simple brownie for Valentines day earlier this year, you figured this would push his buttons even more. And what was it that Morticia said? ‘Don’t torture yourself, Gomez. That’s my job.’ It was only fitting.

So you quickly snatched up the costume and a few extra bags of candy, the halloween spirit flowing through your veins. You spent the rest of the little free time you had that afternoon ordering the pieces you needed for your costume, and waited with much anticipation before the big day. You kept everything under wraps from Sukuna, wanting it to be a surprise. Aaand so there’s no time for him to force you to change the baby’s costume.

Hiding anything from Sukuna was usually next to impossible, but these days proved to be easier due to the condition he was in. He wouldn’t admit it, but his transition from his true form had taken a toll on him. Holding such immense power and cursed energy for as long as he did, it was no surprise that now that his 20 fingers had been casted away that he would be in a weakened state. But this was the king of curses you were talking about, and if kings were anything they were prideful. You weren’t there to personally witness it, but he described his transformation back to the form you met him in to be instantaneous but grueling. And for him to admit to any type of pain was quite the feat.

It had taken a lot of convincing on your part, but you had finally gotten Sukuna to stay on bedrest for longer than a few hours. It was nice of him to wait till after you were all unpacked and settled into the new house to get some rest, but during nearly the entire process of the move you were constantly worried about him overexerting himself. It pissed him off to see you pity him in any kind of way, and he was quick to squash your doubts by doing something rash like hauling you over his shoulder. He even threatened to throw you across the yard when you asked if you could carry a box for him. In front of your new neighbors.

For a little over a week now Sukuna has slept all through the night and most of the day, and was plagued with constant headaches. Him being cooped up in your shared bedroom all day did make it lonely around the house lately, but you knew it was only temporary. You had to remind yourself that there would be plenty of holidays you’ll share with him and your son.

On Halloween night, you were finishing up the last touches to your costume in the downstairs bathroom, hoping to not somehow tip off Sukuna by the smell of your long black wig or your blood red lipstick that something was up. The dress you ordered did technically fit, but you didn’t take into account your breast size when shopping, which varied due to breastfeeding. Even though it wasn’t that long ago, you still reminisced on the days when your boobs were your own and didn’t carry the responsibility of childcare with them. Nowadays they only ever felt sore, heavy, leaking or a combination of all three. You had fed Kiseki a few hours ago, but already you could tell that they were beginning to swell. But trick or treaters would be arriving any minute now and there was no way you were getting to let your stupid milkbags get in the way of your holiday spirit, no matter how much they popped out from the low cut of your slinky black dress.

Once everything was in place, you went out into the living room to fetch Kiseki, who stood like a perfect gentleman as your other curse companion gently brushing out the hairs to his costume. He made for the cutest little Cousin Itt, with sunglasses and a tiny hat to complete the look. You thanked the curse before offering your hand to your son to lead him upstairs where his father was. You wrapped your knuckles on the door before opening it and found your husband sitting up in bed, shirtless with his arms resting on either side of him. It freaked you out sometimes that he could actually sleep like that, but he soon opened his eyes when the door closed behind you. Kiseki followed your lead as you walked towards the bed, your back slightly hunched over to make up for the height difference. It caused some of your cleavage to spill from your dress, which you could see Sukuna ogling with a mostly blank expression. That wasn’t where you needed his focus to be, and you stood behind your son to bring the attention back to him.

“Show daddy your costume,” you said excitedly as you let go of his little hand. You stood close by in case he fell, but was surprised by how well balanced he was as he made uneven steps towards the bed. When he got close enough, Sukuna picked him up rather abruptly and held the boy by his pits at arms length, eyeing the costume with a hardened look.

“What is this abomination?” Sukuna said as he turned Kiseki from side to side as if examining a pet for dirt. The boy giggled as he kicked his feet above his fathers lap, ignorant to the question. It was a good thing no one’s taught him what ‘abomination’ meant yet.

“He’s supposed to be Cousin Itt. From the Addams family,” you finished that with two snaps of your finger tips, the reference completely lost on him. You were hoping to watch the movies with him before he’d seen the costume, but his condition made his already low tolerance for television basically nonexistent.

Setting the boy down on his lap, he looked you up and down before saying, “And why are you dressed like a whore?”

Your jaw dropped as you looked between him and the boy. With your hands balling into fists on either side, you said defensively, “Watch yourself. I’m dressed as Morticia Addams. She’s the mother of the family, for your information.”

His lips turned up at the corners, eyes traveling down as he said, “Hm, fitting I guess.”

Before you could say anything else, a small voice asked, “Whore?”

Both of the boy's parents' eyes widened, but wore completely different expressions. He sat on his dad's lap, completely oblivious as he looked between the two of you waiting for an answer. This really couldn’t have gone any worse, and lucky for Sukuna the doorbell rang before you could think of what to do. Scooping up the boy in your arms, you made your way out the room, but not before shooting Sukuna a death glare over your shoulder. As you made your way down the steps, your son tugged on a lock of your wig, looking up at you with the most innocent eyes as he said, “What’s a whore?”

“Let’s practice saying ‘trick or treat’, okay?” you said, giving him an animated grin to mask your mortification.

—

Luckily, the rest of the evening was going just as planned. Between visits from the trick or treaters, the three of you (as in you, Kiseki, and the female curse) were curled up on the couch watching classical kids halloween movies. Your biggest stress currently was trying to monitor your son’s candy intake since his costume allowed him to sneak it so easily. You’d find balled up wrappers falling from beneath the curtain of hair whenever he stood up to greet someone at the door. Still, you were having a blast. Nearly everyone who showed up at your doorstep raved about your son's costumes. You knew you were biased, but you felt that he was definitely the best dressed of the night.

This night served as good practice for his walking, but when it was getting later in the evening and the trick or treaters were dwindling down, there was a moment when he almost tripped on himself while trying to hand out candy. You immediately squatted down to wrap a protective arm around him, and placed the candy bowl down on the ground in front of the kids.

“You okay, buddy?” you asked your son, who’s covered head nodded beneath the costume. Addressing the people at the door, you said, “Go ahead and take as much as you want. That’s all we have left.”

“What do you say, kids?” came an adult male voice. As several tiny voices of ‘thank you!’ rang out, you looked up to meet the eyes of what you had to presume was the father of at least one of these kids. You gave him a friendly smile, the sounds of crinkling wrappers ringing out as the kids fought for the last pieces of candy left.

“Those are some cool costumes you got there,” the man said with a raise of his brow. It was topical, but came out kind of forced based on his tone and the sweat of his brow. Grabbing the now empty bowl, you stood up as the children started to walk past the man. You figured he would follow, but instead he stood rather stiffly with his hands in his pockets as he said, “You’re smart for choosing to stay in. My feet are killing me right now.”

“Oh, it’s just because the little man isn’t used to being on two feet yet. I’m sure I’ll be in your spot by next year,” you said, your arms wrapping around the bowl. His eyes shot down to it - or at least that’s where you thought they went- before meeting your eyes again.

Just when you were about to tell him goodnight, he said, “Yeah, I’m out here with my daughter and some of her friends and their parents. Maybe next year we could all be a trick or treat squad, y’know?”

“Uhm..”

You weren’t sure how to answer that. He seemed nice enough, but your motherly instincts wouldn’t allow you to trust your son around a stranger, no matter how harmless the offer was. You figured you could ask about his kid to steer the conversation elsewhere while also getting more insight on him, but just as you were about to speak, he quickly said, “Or m-maybe not. Sorry I asked, goodnight!”

The man stormed off your lawn, catching up with his group that were already half way down the block by now. Before you turned around, you could already sense the reason for the man’s sudden change in demeanor standing behind you.

Sukuna stood tall before you, red eyes nearly glowing in the dimly lit entryway as he kept watch of the man. Without looking back, you closed the door behind you to say, “Could you not scare the neighbors, please?”

He was about to say something, but looked to see Kiseki staring up at the both of you. Giving you a look that said ‘wait,’ he bent down to be at eye level with his son to say, “I don’t know what you’ve done with my boy, but he better be in his bed by the time I get there. Got it?”

One of his little arms shot out from the side to give a salute above the brim of his glasses before he hobbled away. You called out to him telling him he needs to brush his teeth extra well before bed, and luckily the female curse followed right behind him. As they both entered the bathroom down the hall, you turned your attention back to your husband, who was now standing directly in front of you. You’ve gotten used to his lack of personal space, but was still caught off guard when his hand circled your waist to press you close against him. Sneering down at you, he said, “I’m only scaring the ones that want to fuck my wife.”

Looking down the hall to check that the coast was clear, you gently knocked a hand against his chest as you said, “You’re being ridiculous, you know that?”

“Am I?” he asked, emphasizing his point by pulling you in closer so your breasts were squeezed up against him. You hadn’t realized till then how apparent they were by now, seeing as it's been hours since you last pumped. Sukuna’s lips grazed the high of your cheekbone as he said, “You’re the one who’s had their tits out for the whole neighborhood to see.”

“Not on purpose!” you said, flushing with embarrassment just thinking about how long you’ve looked like this.

“I’ll allow it this one time, but only because you look so fucking hot,” he said, his hips pressing into yours as the hand that was sitting low at your waist slid down to squeeze your ass.

“Sukuna..,” you said in a low, flustered tone just as you saw your son exit the bathroom. You pushed away from his embrace just in time to hear him say, “I’m going to put the pest to bed. I’ll meet you upstairs.”

In a haze from his words, your response came delayed when you said, “You mean our son?”

—

You only stood around for about a minute when Sukuna came through the door, shutting it behind him while never tearing his eyes off you. The two of you haven’t been too physical since the start of his recovery, so you were eager for whatever he was willing to offer. You knew flat out asking would cause him to throw another hissy fit, so instead you followed his lead as he gripped your upper arms tightly and pulled you into a kiss. It was rough and needy, and you had to grip onto his pecks to balance yourself from the dizzying feeling he was always able to pull from you. Leaning in closer to him, your fingers naturally grazed down his chest. You weren’t using any pressure, but somehow the feeling of your nails going down his nipples caused him to let out a sharp noise. You pulled back immediately to ask if he was okay, seeing smears of your red lipstick across his lips.

“I’m fine, it's just..,” Sukuna must’ve been so foreign to this feeling that even he couldn’t comprehend it, but soon he said, “I think I actually felt pain just now. Not a lot but… certainly more than I ever had before.”

You couldn’t hold back your worry then, and asked him a flurry of questions before he grabbed your wrists and said, “It wasn’t much. You certainly could never hurt me.”

You knew he was just joking it off, but he also seemed genuine. With a huff, you said, “Be careful what you say. I could take advantage of you in your weakened state.”

“You should,” he said with a fire in his eyes. It caught you off guard and you couldn’t help but to nervously ask, “Are you sure?”

“If I said it, then I’m sure,” he said in an irritated voice as his sharp teeth showed. He was being awfully short tempered for someone who was asking to be dominated, and you purse your lips as you gazed up at him through narrowed eyes.

“Fine. Lay down on the floor.”

You pushed off of his chest after that, knowing his eyes were trailing you as you walked to the opposite side of the room. You weren’t sure exactly what you had in mind, but busied yourself by searching the dresser drawer as Sukuna lowered himself to the ground. He has never outwardly asked you to play the dominant role before. It was something you silently anticipated even though it scared the hell out of you. Being bratty with him was easy, like a game you two could pick up on at any time. But being the one in control of such a force as Sukuna… It was admittedly enthralling and terrifying.

“If you’re trying to bore me to sleep, it’s working,” said a voice from somewhere behind you. You rolled your eyes just when your fingers landed on a small cardboard box tucked in the corner of the drawer. You had nearly forgotten you owned a box of matches. You bought them for the brief time period you didn’t own an electric lighter for your candles, and figured you’d keep them in case of a power outage. But now a darker idea was swimming through your head, and you quickly grabbed them and held it close to your middle.

“Lighting candles to set the mood? How cute,” Sukuna looked up at you with a raised brow, his hands tucked under his head.

“Not quite,” you said with a poorly hidden smirk. You grabbed a single match from the box and shut it, running the tip of the matchstick over the textured side. It made a small sound as it lit above your fingertips. Holding it up for dramatic effect, you said, “You have some apologizing to do.”

“For what?” he lifted his head, brows furrowed as he looked at your stern face. Rolling his eyes, he said, “How many times do I have to tell you, he’s not going to remember-”

He let out a sharp hiss in surprise when the tiny flame made contact with his bare abdomen. As he brushed it off himself, he looked up at you in mild bewilderment, more so for having the gall to go through with it. You wanted to feel guilty for what you had done, but the sly smirk that crept over his face told you that you didn’t need to be. Standing up a little straighter, you looked down at him from your chin as you said, “That’s not an apology.”

Sukuna casually picked up the match, which only left behind a faintly rosy mark that was healing itself quicker than it came. You watched as he put the still smoldering tip to his tongue before saying, “What are you gonna do about it? Burn me at the stake, witch?”

“That’s too good for you,” you said as you lit another match, already feeling the enthralling anticipation that hung in the air. You twisted it in your fingertips while saying, “But it’s tempting.”

“You’re getting so worked up over a word,” he said while tucking his hands back under his head, clearly making himself comfortable. As his hips momentarily raised in the air, you noticed the tent in his pants. You still practiced caution when you did it, but you couldn’t resist stepping in between his legs before bringing a foot down on his crotch. You ran it gently over his bulge as you gave him a heated look.

“What are you getting worked up over?”

He rolled his hips up to meet the flat of your foot. It took you slightly off balance and before you could think, he was pulling you down on top of him. The match you held simmered out on the floor beside him as your hand went over his chest. You were straddling his lap now, and with your dress riding up to your hips, you could feel his bulge pressing up against you. It was embarrassing how whipped you were for his cock, but you could already feel the heat forming in your core at the prospect of where things would go.

“I know you’re going easy on me,” he said, propping himself up on one arm as he wrapped the other around your waist, practically pushing his face into your chest. Smiling against your cleavage, he said, “If you’re gonna do something, at least make it count.”

Character Actors

Richard Deacon (May 14, 1921 – August 8, 1984) Television and motion picture actor, best known for playing supporting roles in television shows such as The Dick Van Dyke Show, Leave It To Beaver, and The Jack Benny Program

His best-known roles are milksop Mel Cooley (producer of "The Alan Brady Show") on CBS's The Dick Van Dyke Show (1961–1966) and Fred Rutherford on Leave It to Beaver (1957–1963). He co-starred as Tallulah Bankhead's butler in a classic episode of The Lucy–Desi Comedy Hour called "The Celebrity Next Door". Deacon played Roger Buell on the second season of TV's The Mothers-in-Law (1967–1969), having replaced Roger C. Carmel in the role. He played "Principal 'Jazz-Bow' Conroy" in The Danny Thomas Show (1958). He also appeared in the 1960 Perry Mason episode The Case of the Red Riding Boots as Wilmer Beaslee.

Deacon appeared in many sitcoms, including It's a Great Life, The People's Choice, How to Marry a Millionaire, Guestward, Ho!, Pete and Gladys, The Donna Reed Show, The Real McCoys (in the episode "The Tax Man Cometh", he clashes with series star Walter Brennan as Grandpa Amos McCoy over property tax assessments in the San Fernando Valley), Get Smart, Bonanza (a deceitful character who cheats the Cartwrights during their visit to San Francisco), and The Rifleman (episode "The Hangman", in an uncredited role). In episode 5 of the first 1964 season of The Munsters, "Pike's Pique", he plays a Water District Commissioner, Mr. Pike, buying the underground right to lay pipe. In The Addams Family, he administers Cousin Itt a battery of psychological tests in the May 1965 episode "Cousin Itt and the Vocational Counselor". In 1966, he appeared on Phyllis Diller's short-lived television sitcom, The Pruitts of Southampton. He also guest starred in the NBC family drama National Velvet, and in the ABC/Warner Bros. crime drama Bourbon Street Beat, and played Mr. Whipple on The Twilight Zone in the 1964 episode "The Brain Center at Whipple's". He also was an occasional panelist in the 1970s/early 1980s versions of Match Game.

In 1983, Deacon reprised his role of Fred Rutherford in the television movie Still the Beaver, a sequel to the TV series Leave it to Beaver, which aired from 1957 to 1963. When the television movie spawned a series of the same name on The Disney Channel, he was to reprise the role once again but passed away weeks before the series began production. (Wikipedia)

Ok random paring... Lena learns she is related to... Morticia Adams. Goes for a visit and boom family love. Now she has a crazy family that embraces her and it's just freaking strange. Kara is a bit on the fence of this family but Wednesday just stares her down. Kara is terrified of her. Hurt my aunt and I'll end you alien... And walks away.... It was just a random thought but you do random parings so wanted to share with you :)

Moira Frump is her twin sister’s maid of honor. Sure, it’s a night wedding, which is strange (and so are most of the groom’s family), but they arere many and joyous and even Moira can tell that these strange people love Morticia very much, and that they GET her, in a way no one but Moira ever has.

So, they’re good in Moira’s book.

She laughs and dances right along with them to macabre yet lively music, and kisses her sister on her pale cheek.

“I am so happy for you,” Moira murmurs. “You deserve every joy.”

“As do you, my sweet sister,” Morticia returns. “And you will find yours.”

Morticia has an odd certainty of the future, so when Moria meets Lionel just a few years later, she thinks she’s found her joy. He’s loving, ans generous, and makes her feel like the only woman in the world.

Until his wife finds them.

Moira bears her daughter alone, save for her sister’s unwavering devotion. And when she holds the smallest, most perfect baby girl in her arms, Moira finally understands.

Lena is her joy. Her happiness.

And Lena fluorishes under her mother’s love, and loves her auntie just as much. Morticia visits frequently, delivering blankets and jumpers black as night. The only trouble is, mail often gets lost on its way to the Addams home, so when Morticia receives word of her sister’s death, it’s far too late.

Lena’s been claimed by her father, and no one on Earth will tell her his name.

Morticia grieves the loss of two people: her twin, and her beloved niece.

Years pass, and eventually Morticia starts her own family. She honors her lost in her own way. She names her daughter for Moira’s favorite day of the week, and gives her son the name of Lena’s favorite stuffed animal.

But then, when she and her family find themselves (temporarily) evicted from their home, she sees her sister’s face on the cover of Forbes magazine.

No. Not Moira.

Lena.

She knows it as a certainty, and the blurb beneath confirms her given name, though it seems Frump was buried along with Moira.

When they return home, Morticia pens a letter to her niece. She fills the page with elegant script explaining herself and her ardent wish that she would come visit.

No need to reply. Just come.

And Lena does. Against every better instinct, Lena listens to the echoes of memories she has of her Auntie Mor, of warm hugs and black blankets. She drives herself to the address in the letter, and almost turns back at the sight of the gothic home and crooked fence and EXPANSIVE graveyard.

The gate opens for her without a touch, and she makes her way up the drive. When she raps the great bronze knocker, the sound echoes in her chest.

This was a bad idea.

Except… It’s not. Her aunt cradles her face and tells her she is the very image of her mother. She meets Gomez, and Wednesday, and Pugsley, and Fester, and every one else who comes to see the long lost niece. They accept her immediately, and declare her an Addams on principle– being back from the dead is a very Addams thing to do, after all.

Lena loves them. She loves the strange humor and very honest love between them all. She loves how Wednesday is her unwavering self, and how Morticia supports her in all her dark endeavors.

Wednesday reserves her judgement for a good while, and tests Lena’s mettle by letting herself be caught attempting to electrocute her brother.

Lena wants Wednesday to like her, and wants to honor the spirit of choice that Gomez and Morticia seem to encourage. So despite her concerns, Pugsley is totally happy to be strapped down in his electric chair and Lena makes a choice.

“You’ll get better voltage if you add a capacitor.”

Wednesday immediately joins Team Lena, and god help anyone who means her cousin trouble.

And when Lena begs Kara to come meet her family, she does indeed get a warning from Wednesday. And Pugsley, and Fester, and even Itt, she thinks. Gomez doesn’t bother, and Morticia knows better.

“She can destroy you herself, my dear. She won’t need my help.”

And if Lena starts to wear more black, and chooses darker shades for her lips and nails, no one seems to mind.

But what truly touches Lena soul is the night Morticia leads her out to the graveyard out back (and side and even a little in the front). She regales Lena with the tales of the Addams family laid to rest. They are all remarkable, either in the way they lived or the way they died, and Lena feels as though she comes to know them a little, through Morticia’s affection.

When they slow to a stop, Morticia informs Lena that there is only one headstone in the entire cemetery that does not belong to an Addams.

Lena reads her mother’s name, and her date of death, and there in the still of the graveyard, she feels the world fall silent.

She notes how clean the stone is, how fresh the flowers are, and realizes that she never once before this moment knew where her mother had been buried. And that she never thought to find out.

Morticia takes her hand, and looks at her in that vague, yet eerily intense way she has.

“She loved you very much, my dear,” her aunts says softly. “I have always been drawn to the dark, and macabre, but you and your mother both have always been children of the light.”

Lena’s eyes fill with tears.

“I know she is so proud of you.”

And for a night, Moira is finally mourned by the two people she loved most. Together.

Hi what are your thoughts on some of the lesser known addams family adaptations namely addams family reunion, the late 90s sitcom, the musical and the recent 2019 movie?

Addams Family Reunion was my first experience with the Addams Family. I had the VHS when I was a kid and I loved it. I remember taking it to my gran’s house and leaving it there just so I could have something to watch when visiting. But then I grew up and saw the early 90s movies, the tv show, and the 90s cartoon and I realized that those were WAY better.

Now whenever I see any scenes from that movie, I cringe. It’s just not great and none of the actors have chemistry with each other, which is so important for them as a family unit. Even the plot was dumb. The whole thing starts with them getting an invitation to a family reunion, but it’s addressed to the “Adams” and they’re just like lol ok guess that’s for us then. It’s just all a bit silly and lame, especially when it was the follow-up to the early 90s movies and the dream cast.

From what I can remember, I don’t think I ever saw an episode of The New Addams Family when I was younger. To this day, I’ve only watched a few because I just can’t handle it. They remade the classic show’s episodes, but they just miss the mark. Maybe it’s a show that people would be attached to because of their childhood, but I don’t have that kind of attachment. I just remember my reaction to the first time I heard the new theme they had for it and just… nah. The Addams theme is too iconic to change. There are ways to update it, but don’t change its core.

The musical is ooc for a lot of the characters. It’s like they didn’t know how to make a musical about them without including some kind of unnecessary drama. First of all, Wednesday wants to marry this guy and she changes the way she dresses just to impress his family. She tells her parents that she wants “one normal night” and “can’t we be an average family” when she would never say that. The whole point of the Addams’ is that they aren’t aware that they’re abnormal. They think everyone else is strange! So, it’s weird for them to even entertain the thought of pretending they’re something they aren’t. They have this attitude of ‘we are who we are, take it or leave it.’ They wouldn’t change for anyone and Wednesday definitely wouldn’t change herself for a boy. What is this, Grease?

Anyway, then we come to the issue with the portrayal of Morticia and Gomez’s relationship. Dear Lord! So, Wednesday goes to Gomez and tells him to keep her engagement a secret from her mother, which seems strange already. The family has always been really close with each other and for there to be this weird tension between mother and daughter is just bizarre. Again, drama for the sake of drama.

So, Gomez keeps the secret (even though he wouldn’t keep a secret from Tish) and then Morticia finds out and she’s angry about it. She’s so angry that she actually packs her bags and kisses a sleeping Pugsley goodbye (I’ve only seen the UK tour live so I’m not sure how many differences there are in other versions) and then goes right to the gate. Morticia was really going to abandon her children and husband over something like that. The family is all about sticking together through everything and this didn’t show that. So many people are always praising them for being the most functional family in fiction, but the musical cheapened them by throwing in some soap opera drama and dumb bs.

It gets worse, too. I remember there was a part that made it seem like Morticia had given up everything to have a family. Like she had so many dreams and goals, but she sacrificed a life of travel (she said that she never got to see the catacombs of Paris) to settle. It made it seem like having a family and being a wife was a second choice and it was very woe is me. I hated that. I don’t know how they got Morticia’s characterization so wrong. I could rant about this for days, but me and Rae ( @mortiiicia ) have literally gone on long Discord rants about this with each other.

There are some good songs in the show. I do like When You’re An Addams, Happy/Sad, and Move Toward the Darkness. I wish they would do a completely new musical and keep them in character while having similar effects that the Beetlejuice musical has. But yeah, let me end my rant here before I go on and on.

I was surprised by the 2019 movie. The CGI made me wary and the trailers were a bit off-putting with some of the jokes and the forced meme-y dialogue on some of the promotional art. I think it was one of Pugsley’s posters that used a line that referred to something being “lit”. It also didn’t help when Cousin Itt rolled up to the house with Snoop Dogg music playing in that one trailer. I know he voices him (although there isn’t much to voice lmao) but I was like come on.

But surprisingly, I liked it more than I thought I would. It was actually pretty heartwarming and I liked that they gave Pugsley his own little storyline because he’s usually cast aside for Wednesday. Then they recreated the original show’s intro sequence at the end and, honestly, that was iconic. So, yeah! I didn’t hate it!

I’m so protective of the Addams Family and I just want them to be portrayed well. The early 90s movies still reign supreme along with the TV show. The 90s cartoon is amazing, too. The 70s one? Eh, that one was a bit all over the place, but I think that was more to do with the dated jokes and Gomez’s voice acting in that is WEIRD (and not the good kind.) I have the boxset of the 70s cartoon and will give it another go at some point. I just wish there was a DVD release of the 90s one :(

But yeah! That’s how I feel about the different portrayals. Thanks for the question!

Tacky Lawn Ornaments, Take 2: Have We Learned Nothing?

Summertime is not just an excuse to dive into pools and fire up the grill, but to deck out your lawn with lawn ornaments! But let’s be honest here: The options aren’t all that tasteful. Think: pink flamingos, or ladies bending over in polka-dot skirts.

We’ve covered tacky lawn ornaments in the past, and as this latest wave of options makes all too clear, little progress has been made to make lawn decor more aesthetically palatable. If anything, it’s gotten worse. So in case your taste is questionable and you want some guidance on what not to put on your lawn (or some great gag gifts to give your lawn-loving friends!), check out these weird choices below.

A peeing dog

Manners, please!

Grandin Road

It’s bad enough when your real dog sprays your potted begonias or picnic-table legs, but to install a shrubbery version frozen in midair is really the limit. It’s also quite pricey, at $169 (for sale at Grandin Road, in case you care). And yet, not to be a total downer, per the product description, there are many perks to having a fake bush shaped like a dog: It’s “hassle-free, mess-free, and the neatly manicured look lasts without worry or pruning. Just place, and unleash the instant personality.” “Personality” is one way to put it, for sure.

‘Star Trek’ gnomes

Beam me up!

ThinkGeek.com

Sure, “Star Trek” mania is all-consuming and can span universes, but to put this love on display in your lawn? Not good. Even the most die-hard Trekkie should think long and hard about putting these little guys within plain sight of their neighbors. And besides, the only characters on hand are Wesley Crusher, Geordi La Forge, Q, and Deanna Troi, as they all hail from “The Next Gardenation” collection. A classic like Spock, we’d give a pass … almost.

Naked Venus statue

Get this lady a sweater…

Designtoscano.com

Can’t get to Italy to visit the classic statues? Please try to save up rather than purchase this Venus ($139, DesignToscano.com). With this likeness on your back lawn, the neighbors’ kids will gawk all day.

Faces on trees

Pucker up! This tree is ready for a smooch

Amazon

Sure, those talking trees in “The Wizard of Oz” are a hoot, but that’s no reason to plaster your own elms with this monster visage ($40 on Amazon, in case you beg to differ). In our humble opinion, trees are beautiful things all on their own; there’s no need to gimmick them all up.

Randy rabbits

Just say no to X-rated rabbits in the garden.

gruntzooki/Flickr.com

This photo (grabbed off Flickr so we don’t know how to help you buy your own—sorry!) is kinda funny, but animals humping is just hard to explain to a 4-year-old. Yes, birds and bees do it, and the term “breed like rabbits” is a cliché for good reason, but that doesn’t mean it belongs on your lawn.

Zombie gnomes having lunch

Bloody good fun? Think again.

Imgur.com

Here’s one way to satisfy your love (or hatred?) of both gnomes and flamingos. Little men gorging on the innards of an innocent bird take the cake when it comes to poor taste! Sadly, someone actually snapped this pic on someone’s lawn, so we don’t know where you can buy your own. But perhaps that’s for the best.

Wacky hobgoblins

He’s hairy and sorta scary—and must be banished from your lawn

Lowe's

There are no words to describe this cross between an ogre and Cousin Itt from “The Addams Family” ($51, Lowes). Suffice it to say that you should not go there. One is bad enough, but a whole herd? Worth trying only if you want no visitors, ever.

Addams Family - Common Trigger Warnings

So I recently watched the original 1964 sitcom of “The Addams Family”... and pretty much everything else involving the franchise, and I’m 100% in love with it. However, there are several... rather unfortunate jokes which could be potential triggers/squicks to some people. So below the cut I made a list of trigger warnings for the Addams Family media I’ve seen, so everyone can watch the shows/movies safely.

If you noticed I missed something, or want me to add anything, just message me and I will.

Also note: Spoilers are included in the lists.

General Note:

A lot of Addams Family jokes are based on shock humor, and the violence/gore is depicted in a way that it’s not recommended to the audience; however, a lot of the said “shock humor” can be a little too shocking, which is what this list is for.

So, without further ado...

All Versions

Here’s some general stuff to expect in every adaptation.

Mentions of, references to, and depictions of death, torture and dismemberment, usually presented in a humorous light.

Several references and/or direct mentions of sex, and references to BDSM ranging from vague to obvious. (Usually for Gomez and Morticia)

The Family is often put in what would normally be considered perilous/dangerous/deadly situations. They are usually not bothered by this and often find it great fun.

Various weapons, poisons, and torture devices are shown and used, to the amusement of the Addamses. (i.e. knives, swords, stocks, beds of nails, cyanide, etc)

NOTE: While there’s lots of violence, there is very rarely anything considered gory.

[Anon Request] Most, if not all, of these have multiple uses of French, mostly by Morticia and Gomez.

Morticia and the Psychiatrist

Addams Cum Laude

Cat Addams

Lurch’s Little Helper

The Addams Policy

Lurch’s Grand Romance

A woman, under the effects of a love spell, flirts with several different men, two of which are already in a relationship

Ophelia’s Career

Suicide mentions [I think, it’s been a while since I’ve seen the episode]

Halloween with the New Addams Family (1977)

A man flirts constantly with a married woman; she makes little effort to stop him, though she seems very annoyed

A non-African character dresses in African tribal wear and imitates a “witch doctor”

Misunderstanding: Gomez thinks Morticia is cheating on him.

The Addams Family (1991)

A character is shown to have an abusive and manipulative mother figure.

Wednesday and Pugsley constantly torture each other. This is always played for laughs.

Pugsley can be seen tying her to a chair in the background, and is seen hanging her in the family clock at the beginning.

She later tries to electrocute him, claiming it’s a game called “Is there a god?” She tells her Mother what she’s doing, and her Mother’s only objection is it might cause them to be late. She flips the switch, and smiles as you can hear the electricity sound effects. Pugsley is fine.

Two children play with swords on a stage and spray fake blood onto the stage and into the audience; it’s clearly fake, but could be considered pretty gory.

A married woman falls in love with someone she’s not married to. At the end of the movie, her husband dies and she marries the other person.

A man falls into a deep depression after the betrayal of a family member.

A woman is tortured by a wheel and threatened with red-hot pokers; however, she enjoys this.

Two characters (antagonists) fall from a great height and are buried by the children- Pugsley asks if they’re alive, and Wednesday responds, “Does it matter?”

Addams Family Values (1993)

Wednesday buries a cat alive. This is very brief and played for laughs.

Multiple attempts of infanticide from Wednesday and Pugsley towards their new brother. They do this because Wednesday tells Pugsley that when a new baby is born, one of the other children has to die.

A character is shown to have an abusive relationship with his wife, who wants to murder him for his money.

There is a joke where it’s implied a stripper was baked inside of a cake by accident.

The children are sent to a summer camp which is incredibly ableist and racist, though the movie portrays the camp as in the wrong.

The campers who are not white/abled/good-looking are ostracized. This is encouraged by the counselors.

Suicide visual gag: When they arrive at camp, there is a shot where Wednesday drinks a bottle of poison (which, although usually harmless to an Addams, can be seen as in response to her surroundings), while later Pugsley can briefly be seen attempting to hang himself from a tree behind her.

Suicide Mention; A girl tells Wednesday she would kill herself if one of her family married “the help”

When Wednesday, Pugsley, and their friend Joel won’t comply with the counselors’ wishes, they are “brainwashed” with happy children’s movies. This clearly horrifies them.

The camp puts on a play of the First Thanksgiving which is incredibly racist; all the “good” campers are given the roles of the “kind, thoughtful and cultured” pilgrims, while the outcast campers are made to be “savage” Natives.

This play features several historical inconsistencies and racial stereotypes, and the racist parents of the campers don’t seem to care. (”They’re Indian, enough said.”)

However, at the end of the play, Wednesday breaks character and lists all the horrible things the Europeans did to the Natives, including taking their land and forcing them into reservations. She tells the Pilgrim Campers that she’s going to scalp them and burn their village to the ground.

She follows through on this, leading the Outcasts into a rebellion, in which they set fire to the set, throw children into a lake and shoot arrows at them, and attack the parents in the audience. They do a stereotypical Indian war cry as this happens.

During the rebellion, the counselors are turned on a spit, with several of the Outcast Campers sitting at a table.

Also during the rebellion, Wednesday has Amanda (the girl who’s picked on her) tied to a stake and doused in gasoline. She then approaches her and lights a match; it cuts away, and at the end you can see her and her parents on a plane.

A man falls into a depression due to the betrayal of a family member and a child’s illness.

The Family is strapped to electric chairs (unlike the first film, this is seen as a legitimate threat).

Debbie reveals she burned her house down and murdered her parents, as well as all of her former husbands.

She attempts to electrocute the family, but it backfires and she electrocutes herself, dissolving into a pile of ash and credit cards.

It is implied at the end that Wednesday kills her friend Joel; she tells him she doesn’t want romance, then mentions that she would have killed her husband by scaring him to death, and this is followed by a hand shooting out of a grave and grabbing Joel, causing him to scream in terror as Wednesday smiles.

Addams Family Reunion (1998)

Unlike the other adaptations, the Addamses seem to enjoy putting other people in pain and torment.

Several mailmen are shown in peril and implied to die. This is played for laughs.

Wednesday and Pugsley attempt to guillotine themselves so they don’t have to go to a family reunion. This is played for laughs.

The Adams (one “d”) family is mentioned to be poisoning their father in an attempt to get their inheritance.

Fester has a dog that turns into a (badly-done CGI) monster that attacks people and eats hair when he’s called a “good boy”.

A woman is emotionally abusive towards her daughter. By the end of the movie, it’s implied her daughter is still living with her, as the two of them are separated from the Addamses and we don’t see them after that.

A man threatens Gomez with death and attacks him.

Child Services is called after Morticia mentions she let baby Pugsley chew on electrical cords and they’re knowingly leaving the children in a dangerous school environment.

Gomez and Morticia are accused of Child Abuse, Neglect and Endangerment (they don’t seem bothered by this, which is wildly out of character).

The Child Services Worker believes the children to have gone through trauma after Pugsley crashes a toy school bus and Wednesday draws a gory funeral.

The children go on to torment their Foster Family until their parents come to pick them up.

Fester is given shock treatment, which he enjoys. At the same time, he is in an asylum with insane people.

Later, an antagonist is strapped to the electric chair and tortured by the asylum patients. He is not seen again.

It’s stated at the end that Pugsley left a bomb with the Adamses, and we see an explosion in the distance.

The New Addams Family (1998-1999)

A running gag throughout almost every episode is that Wednesday loves to physically torture her brother, often threatening death. Her parents are aware of and okay with this.

Pugsley’s consent and degree of enjoyment with these activities varies; sometimes he likes it and misses Wednesday when she isn’t tormenting him, other times this seems to upset him.

Another running gag is Wednesday and Pugsley tend to torment visitors and mailmen, to the point of implied murder. Their family doesn’t seem to mind.

Halloween with the Addams Family

The Addamses are robbed at gunpoint- they think it’s a game and take it as a joke.

Wednesday and Pugsley electrocute two people repeatedly. Later it is implied heavily that they blew up a bully child, and the Police tell Gomez they tried to set fire to a nursing home.

Deadbeat Relatives

Multiple murder attempts on several different people.

A character is undead throughout the entire episode.
