Wednesday: *is Being Arrested*

Being Villagers

Based off this story prompt/fill (X) where you are born with a designation like Hero, Demon King, Blacksmith, etc.

Your name is Dolly. You are a Villager. You, as well as anyone, know what that means.

——————-.

You are sixteen and it is your first day at school.

Your first lesson is that Villagers are the only ones who start so late.

“Because there’s not much to be taught,” a boy says. His clothes are made of finer cloth than your mother’s wedding dress and his hair is as shiny as the brass buckles on his shoes. He grins at you, as proud as a peacock in front of half the class. “Don’t need to ask what your Destiny is, do I?”

You don’t know why he’s singling you out. A quick glance back into the classroom shows the rest of the students sitting at their desks with their heads low. They’re Villagers too. Most of you are. That’s why there isn’t anything special enough about any of you. You look back at the boy. “…are you going to ask me something else?”

“What?”

“If you don’t need to ask me my Destiny,” you say slowly, “do you need to ask me something else?”

“I don’t need to ask anything from a Villager!” the boy cries. He jabs a finger at his own bicep where his mark lies under cloth. “I’m a Lord!”

“Okay,” you say. The other kids behind him are frowning at you. Some of them are Villagers too, but different from you. They’re the children of merchants which is a different sort of destiny altogether. “I need to run some errands for my mother. Will you let me pass?”

Had to do sketches because this show is full of contrasts!

i just finished a wenclair fic where ajax would call wednesday a little guy and I can’t stop thinking about how real and true it isahshdnjf?,!,&;hjdjfnn

JUST LOOK AT THIS LITTLE GUY !!!! ｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ)ﾟ｡

two mimir

one of the reasons i love wednesday/enid so much is how much enid respects wednesday’s boundaries without her having to say much (or more accurately, nothing at all)

we see this they first time they meet, when enid accepts that wednesday isn’t a hugger. she doesn’t push wednesday or try to change this fact (something we see the boys do when they try to make wednesday do something she isn’t interested in/not ready for)

and although enid does try to hug wednesday later in the episode, she does nothing more than hold her arms out and step forward. she repeats her earlier statements and leaves wednesday be

this is also after their balcony talk, where enid shares about her vulnerabilities with not being able to wolf out, and wednesday shares in return. they’ve gone from being at each other throats (hyperbole) to enid wishing wednesday safe travels. enid also recognizes how wednesday sharing, in a attempt to comfort her, is her being vulnerable as well, and without prompting she promises not to tell anyone

during the window shots, we can see how enid keeps her distance from the divide between their sides, and it is wednesday who steps closer to enid, even if it just a small bit

in episode eight, as they are packing wednesday’s things and enid goes to try and hug her one last time, when wednesday retreats, enid takes a step back as well. (wednesday also steps closer when enid moves away)

the final moment that solidifies that when it comes to bridging the distance between them, although enid tries more often, it is wednesday who fully closes that cap. in the hig, wednesday doesn’t just return the hug, she pulls enid back in and gets as close to enid as she can (burying her face in enid’s shoulder, something enid doesn’t really do). enid is assuring herself wednesday is safe. wednesday is seeking comfort. she closes her eyes and moves her hand against enid’s back

there are other small, and some may say insignificant moments (like in episode two when enid jokes that wednesday can just ‘glare uncomfortably’), but one moment that did stick out to me was when enid returns to their room

it’s obvious that enid missed wednesday (and vice versa) but she is willing to put in the boundaries wednesday had previously set. she wants to be closer to wednesday but not to the point where wednesday is uncomfortable, and she’s willing to wait for wednesday to become comfortable on her own timeline

the point im trying to make through all my incessant (and probably incomprehensible, given i just spat this out) ramblings, is that ENID RESPECTS WEDNESDAY’S BOUNDARIES in a way other characters don’t seem to

Prompt #2451

“When I die, the world will be yours for the taking. The question is, what will you do with it?”

My take on Spider!Wednesday

wednesday as anime 🖤🕷️🕸️
