Picked up this baby today 😍
The Addams Family renting out rooms in their huge mansion cheaply to broke college students.
The students digging it because the craziness and the bugs are pretty much the same as any other dorm house. Also, Morticia and Gomez treat them all like visiting cousins, not like tenants to abuse and exploit.
One of the tenants is a creative writing major and Gomez and Morticia house them up in the tower because of the quiet and the inspiring view
They’re supposed to be working on a typical coming-of-age story but after living with the Addams for just a week the project is becoming a horror-Gothic-romance
They go to their room after classes one day and find Thing correcting the grammar errors in the manuscript with a red pen
and yeah, the students pay roughly market value for their rooms, but that doesn’t stop gomez from shouting “capital idea!” and handing them wads of cash when they tell him about their weekend plans or what they’re researching, so they basically end up living there for free
In the same vein, half the them have to turn into exceptional fencers, because Gomez just doesn’t give a shit, and if he sees you in the library, its fucking Sword Fighting Time.
Fester and Pugsley find out one of the college students is trying to get into chemistry and woo boy, there has never been a faster study of how to counter various acidic chemical reactions due to “water” balloons in campus history.
Morticia and Grammy are keeping the horticulturalists on their toes with their Black Tulip/Rose hybrids, which can flick their barbs a foot away from their stem system. But it’s fine, one of the kids has managed to breed Aloe with the anti venom.
Lurch makes sandwiches for everyone who’s too much of a coward for Grammy’s cooking. Any music major will find him looming over them, utterly stone faced as they practise until they finish, when he’ll smile, and slowly applaud.
And the spookiest thing of all
Wednesday and Thing will find your thesis. They will critique it in every way imaginable.
There is no escape.
I especially love the idea of Gomez spotting a student in the library, throwing a sword at a startled student, shouting, “En garde!” and lunging at him/her with a sword of his own.
Student (later in life), when asked how she jumps from quietly doing research to handling a sudden influx of ER cases so quickly and easily, says, “When you have to snap out of deep concentration on biochem to fight for your life then get back to biochem without losing your train of thought…you learn or you die.”
This has made me laugh so hard-
But wait could you imagine:
They’re housing a young man, a drama major. He’s a bit flamboyant, a little sassy, his loud laughter echos off the old walls of the house, he gets a little too into reenactments of plays with the children but what drama major wouldn’t? The Addams think nothing of it and when he requests if he can invite over his boyfriend they welcome that boy with open arms as well. “My family wouldn’t understand.” He insists when asked why his parents haven’t met his absolutely LOVELY boyfriend. “They’re really….religious. All I’ve ever heard growing up is how being gay is a sin and wrong!” Gomez spends the next month helping the boy build up the courage to tell his family. Wednesday helps him come up with an elaborate play to help him come out. The whole family helps set up a theater and chairs with snacks and everything! In the end though the boy is disowned. Gomez boils with rage at the idea that a parent could abandon their child on something as trivial as a romantic partner! The kids never seen him so angry before. “I can’t believe I can never go home.” Gomez suddenly stops in his rantings and swivels on a heel to give the boy a confused look. “What are you talking about, my boy?” The kid blinks and sputters about how his family would never allow him to come back. Morticia gives him a soft smile and cups his face in her hands. “We thought you’d come to think of this as your home.” The boy is stunned for a moment then suddenly bursts into tears again. This time it’s tears of relief and joy. Years later the boys become an incredibly successful playwrite living very well off in a black house in the suburbs. His old parents come to visit him claiming something about him owing them money for raising him but the boy simply cocks his head to the side confused. “You’re still a Smith after all.” The boy laughs, a deep belly laugh. He’d had his last name changed to Addams years ago it wasn’t just a stage name.

By the way, just wanted to remind the Ben haters that he had his fucking reasons!

“Be With Me”
I’ll forever hold out hope that Rey can bring Ben back. Whether that is through some cool dyad ability or getting him out of the World Between Worlds, they get to be together and help restore balance to the galaxy <3
