@pizzaboat this made me smile. I love them. 🥹
People take names and especially surnames so damn seriously and act like they’re written in stone but the big secret here is they’re all fake, it’s all made up. David Tennant picked out his name at 16 because his real name was barred from the actor’s union he joined on account of their No Doubles Allowed rule, and he wound up naming himself after Neil Tennant from the Pet Shop Boys of all things, and now many years later his whole family carries on that same made-up name he committed to as a teenager. All names are made up and fake as hell, call yourself whatever feels right.
Weirdo (affectionate)
I made a baby blanket for a pregnant woman at work and I went back and forth about it like “is this weird? To like hand make something for someone when we’re like friendly acquaintances not like bffs. God why are you so fucking awkward.” Anyway I gave it to her and she said she loved it and in the back of my head I’m like yea she’s nice and probably just humoring the weirdo. Well she texted me a picture this weekend of a scrunchy faced newborn at the hospital wrapped in the blanket I made her. And I’m like. Wow. She loved it so much she took it with her! To the hospital! To give birth! She wrapped her newborn it! I am just so filled with love and joy right now.
People will love the things you make them. Because you thought of them and you cared.
Enid: I’m so angry with you, Willa!
Wednesday: I understand.
Enid: You have no idea how furious I am with you right now!
Wednesday: How long are you gonna be mad?
Enid: I have no idea!! Probably a long time!
Wednesday: How long are you going to keep holding my hand?
Enid looks down to see she’s still holding her partners hand. She quickly pulls away.
Not a second goes by until she grabs her hand again
Enid: Okay! I forgive you! I miss you so much.
Wednesday: Oh thank god, I can’t stand it when I’m not holding your hand, Mon Coeur.
