WEDNESDAY ADDAMS & TYLER GALPIN
WEDNESDAY | 01.07 “If You Don’t Woe Me By Now”
I am reaching out on behalf of my dear friend, Mohamad S., who is facing one of the most challenging times of his life. Mohamad is 37 years old and left his homeland in 2015 in search of a safer and better future. He’s a kind, hardworking man, and his small family has always been his greatest priority.
Living abroad, Mohamad has recently endured unimaginable loss and financial strain. Amidst the ongoing conflict in his homeland, his mother passed away, leaving behind his sister and her five young children—the last remaining members of his immediate family.
As the situation worsened, Mohamad managed to help his sister and her children escape to safety in Egypt, covering their immediate needs and securing a temporary refuge for them. Since then, he has been fully responsible for providing everything they need to survive during this transition.
In his efforts to support his family and cope with this devastating loss, Mohamad has found himself deeply in debt. To make matters even more difficult, he recently underwent knee surgery, which limits his ability to return to work for the foreseeable future. This has made it even harder for him to manage his financial responsibilities and the pressing need to provide his family with a stable future.
Mohamad is now working to bring his sister and her five children to join him in Belgium, where he hopes they can find stability and opportunity after all they’ve endured. This transition, however, requires significant resources that he is currently unable to meet alone.
For privacy reasons, we are not sharing Mohamad’s full name, as he has chosen to keep his identity discreet. While he initially refused the idea of asking for help, I couldn’t stand by and watch him struggle alone. I insisted on doing this for him because he deserves a chance to overcome these challenges. Your contribution 💪 will help Mohamad repay the debt incurred during this difficult time, cover ongoing living expenses for his family, and assist with the costs involved in bringing them safely to Belgium.
Mohamad has been a good friend of mine for years, and I’ve always admired his resilience and generosity. Any support, no matter the size, will make an incredible difference in helping Mohamad and his family rebuild their lives after these painful experiences.
Thank you for reading his story and considering helping a man who has always done everything he can for his loved ones. 🙏

FIRST LOOK AT WEDNESDAY SEASON 2
Creature Commandos is good!!!😂😂😂
I love how they’re all just standing outside and listening lmao
wifey scolding the chief
there are quite a few hotchniss episodes that prove my theory of them being soulmates but my favorite will always be 3x02 because that’s the one episode where everything Shifted between them: emily preferred to literally resign from her dream job rather than become strauss’ birdie and snitch on hotch (this despite hotch being a bit awful to her since her joining the team) and hotch 1. realized he had always been wrong about this little smartass charming brat, 2. had the worst fight with his wife, 3. right after, went straight to emily’s to convince her to join him for one more case, 4. said ‘I WANT YOU ON THAT PLANE WITH ME’ to emily, 5. most likely flew commercial with her bouncing off ideas re the case and strauss’ trashy strategy to get rid of both of them, 6. defended her and her idea to get into david smith’s house and 7. swore that her return to the bau would stay official even if his wouldn’t be. AND THEN, we see parallel shots of them at their respective house/apartment looking off into the distance, satisfied about being back but sad about their ill perceived loneliness.
in this other essay i will-
I miss my favorite manipulative, smart and charismatic Hyde 😭🥺
The beautiful, talented, exquisite Dame Maggie Smith has just died, and I'll probably be heartbroken about it forever, honestly.
Wednesday described the feeling as “her favourite feeling.”
Tyler was eager! He wants to kiss her, she with him!
criminal minds parents !!

red is her favourite colour
body count: "private, thank you very much!"
her favourite movie of all time is 'Carrie' - but she can't resist a good old mystery novel
has some secret skills she doesn't really talk about or use until she needs them; plays the piano, did ballet until she was 15, can horseback ride.
her favourite book of all time is 'Jane Eyre'
dog ears her books to save her pages - either that or uses literally anything as a bookmark. argues that it makes her books look 'loved'
her favourite meal is a good cheeseburger (although she'll tell you its some kind of fancy pasta)
chews her nails when she's stressed
grew up in multiple embassies across the world including: UK, Iraq, Russia, Italy, France, Greece, Spain, and Egypt.
mommy issues galore although she'd never admit it
daddy issues, too, while we're at it.
absentee father who was 'working' all the time - only 'working' meant having affairs and avoiding their home as much as possible
her parents only put on the show of a functional, happy marriage for elizabeth's career, a charade emily was also expected to play a part in. she did so until she went away to college
her dad died when she was 23
nomadic lifestyle all her life due to her mom's job - finds it hard to settle down as a result
has a little box of mementos from each of the places she's lived, trinkets that would be of no value to anyone else but mean a lot to her

is also multilingual in sarcasm and often uses it to diffuse tense situations.

cannot abide by any rule she considers arbitrary
loves a good horror movie, the gorier the better but the supernatural ones freak her out
has a secret passion for classical music when she’s stressed - particularly beethoven and bach
emily has a love for fine wine and is something of an amateur connoisseur, able to tell the difference between a good vintage and a cheap bottle. she and rossi bond over this.
her passion for coffee, however, is much more lax and she can drink even the roughest of instant crap.
can also whip up a mean martini
she’s a cat person but never had a pet growing up due to all the moving around.
emily’s guilty pleasure is reality TV—she finds it oddly comforting and a way to unwind from the seriousness of her day-to-day life.
often doodles when she's on the phone—her notebooks are full of random sketches.
loves an indoor plant but finds it incredibly difficult to keep them alive
fucking loves technology and is slightly addicted to TikTok. has to limit her own screen time.
speaking of TikTok, she's totally on BookTok and loved the ACOTAR series.

bit of an adrenaline junkie, whether in her home or professional life. overly impulsive sometimes as a result

lonely childhood even though he had a little brother
abusive, drunk for a father
emotionally absent mother who was trying to deal with her own trauma
his mom died when he was 25
his dad is still alive out there somewhere but they're not in contact, and aaron has no intention of being
had to be the strong one for his little brother
comes from a pretty poor background, has built himself up to be and have everything he is and has
always felt like more of a father than a brother to Sean because of their age gap, and the fact that he practically raised him
loves to go camping and be in the wilderness
a morning person - likes to get up and out of the house as early as possible
a very neat person - you'd be forgiven for thinking he was in the military (he never was) by the way he makes his bed and stacks his clothes
collected coins as a kid, something he never grew out of. has a very well organised collection he values greatly
keeps his books neat and tidy - always uses a bookmark
loves an old western, likes an action movie, horrors make him uncomfy and he's a secret sucker for a rom-com
reluctant green thumb and often ends up taking care of the plants that emily brings home and gives up on or gets distracted from
has a soft spot for old-school jazz and sometimes listens to it when he needs to decompress.
he's a surprisingly good cook, which is a skill he honed while having to take care of his brother, although the recipes were a lot more basic back then
still has his parents wedding rings, a fact about himself that he wrestles with since he doubts they were ever in love
prefers handwritten notes to digital reminders, is a very tactile person. never really fell in love with his phone.
hums softly when he's concentrating, a habit he's more often than not completely unaware of, and emily finds it adorable

wears his grandfather's class ring. it's the only family heirloom he has, and sometimes he feels guilty for not giving it to sean
has a collection of old vinyls from the 70s
visits the same diner every saturday for breakfast. after getting together with emily, the visits become less frequent but they still go now and then. aaron says they have the best eggs. emily thinks they're just ok, but she likes to see him happy
aaron isn't a big drinker; he'll have a few beers on a night out, or a whiskey after work occasionally, but he very rarely engages in any binge drinking. emily's only seen him really drunk a handful of times throughout their relationship.
he is, however, partial to the occasional cigar and although emily sneaks her own cigarette now and then, she can't stand the smell of them.
what he wears:
Hotchniss:
the only time hotch is not a morning person is when emily is in his bed, then he never wants to leave the comfort of the covers and the warmth of her body
hotch will watch a horror movie with emily with a straight face, but hate it the whole way through. emily will pretend to be into his action movies, and doesn't let him know she's actually bored out of her mind. their middle ground is a good western or a rom-com.
their first big fight is over a clash between their idea of 'tidy' - emily is laid back, doesn't mind a bit of clutter. aaron is...borderline ocd. they fall out over her having left a towel on the floor...again.
they are very well matched at chess, and often their games can go on for weeks in between cases and life. currently emily is winning by two games.
aaron would rather to repairs around the house himself, where as emily is used to throwing money at a problem and making it go away. they try to compromise but they're away so often for work that more often than not, emily wins because aaron just doesn't have the time, but when he does take on a project he loves the manual labour, and emily loves to sit back and watch x
it was his dream to restore a classical care so emily bought him one for his 50th birthday and its his pride and joy. he painted it red just for her
emily reads before bed and aaron does the crossword, with his glasses perched on the end of his nose and emily thinks it's the cutest thing.
emily's love of spicy foods means that more often than not aaron has to resign himself to buying her two meals when the spiciest dish on the menu is just 'a little too spicy' - he doesn't mind, really
they're both incredibly competitive. emily gets sweary and loud when she's in competition, aaron gets smug and smirky and that drives emily up the wall. their second biggest fight, ever, was over a game of monopoly. it's been banned in their household ever since.
emily takes aaron to a ranch for one of his birthdays - to celebrate his love for an old western, and because she thinks he'll love it! turns out aaron hotchner is terrified of horses. emily spent the first day riding and trying to convince him to do the same, and after that they just enjoyed the views and each other's company, and the horses, but from afar.
emily often teases hotch about his love for organization and can’t resist occasionally hiding a few items just to see his reaction. he pretends to be frustrated but secretly finds her antics adorable.
surprisingly, when they go on vacation, it's emily who wants their days planned down to the moment so that they don't miss anything, and aaron who just - finally- wants to relax and 'go with the flow'. emily finds this version of her husband disconcerting.
emily loves to surprise hotch with impromptu weekend getaways. he pretends to grumble about the lack of planning and the expense of it all but secretly enjoys the surprises and the thought she puts into them.
financially, aaron and emily grew up in two very different places. aaron watched his mother scrimp and save every penny to try and provide for him and sean, when she was lucid. when she wasn't, he had to figure it out himself. he's worked since the age of 14. emily had everything in life given to her on a silver platter and, even now, occasionally spends out of her trust fund. aaron gets frustrated by spending that he sees as frivolous and emily has to remind him that they're well off - she still has her trust fund, even if neither of them were working. it's infrequently a source of contention between them, though.
they dated before emily's 'death', before paris. he visited her in paris, where their flame sparked again but when she came back to the team nothing happened. then beth happened. then emily left again.
they stayed in contact while she was in london and eventually realised they were miserable without each other. emily moves back to the states, returns to the BAU and they get back together.
they marry that same year. it's a really small ceremony, attended only by the team, jack and sean. neither of their surviving parents are invited.
they started a two-person book club where they choose a book to read each month and discuss it over dinner. they always donate one copy - whether to charity or a friend. sometimes both if they agree that the book sucked.
they create the 'hotchner cup' which is a trophy that they play for every family game night. it's an old, tarnished badge of hotch's with 'Hotchner' written across it super-glued to an old ballet trophy of emily's. it's currently in emily's possession...due to the chess situation.
emily's a cat person and hotch loves dogs. as a compromise, they have one of each.
when emily has their kids, they share the position of Unit Chief at the BAU and alternate shifts, so someone's always at home with the kids. it's their one rule; the kids never get left alone.
they have three kids together, ava, livvy and alex. jack is aaron's son from his previous marriage to haley, and emily loves him like her own.
they share a home office and walking into it is hysterical; there are two desks and it's immediately obvious whose is whose because aaron's is meticulously organised and emily's is a mess.
aaron always dreads his weeks 'on' at work, because he knows he's going into his desk being an absolute mess. emily is the same because she says whenever he cleans up, he puts her stuff away and she can't find anything. she prefers her 'organised chaos'.
even though emily is a luxury resort kind of girl, aaron forces the family to take an annual camping trip. every year, emily complains about it; alex and ava follow her suit. jack and livvy love the camping trip like their father. even though emily and the kids complain, they also secretly love it.
they take an annual family photo during every camping trip
every year they all celebrate haley's birthday together with a special meal; homemade lasagne followed by apple pie and ice cream, both favourites of haley.
when it comes to parenting, there's no doubt who's the strict parent. emily definitely takes a more relaxed approach than her husband.
however, when it comes to bullying or the kids being in danger, emily has to be kept in check. more than once she's threatened to pull her badge on a kid - or parent - at school. more than once, she's had to be talked down by her husband, and sometimes the kids.
when aaron eventually retires early, he takes up teaching at the academy. they still have lunch together most days.
after aaron retires, emily takes on the role of unit chief by herself and eventually progresses to section chief, which is more of a bureaucratic role than she ever imagined for herself, but it means she gets home to her family every night.

the heart. the matching smiles. the contact photo.
Alright so Hotchniss shippers…. I was not on board i simply decided to dip my toes in and see how the waters felt… well i just watched the season 7 finale and that water felt so good i decided to dive on in. He notices her tell and offers a listening ear and this queen says “its a date” jump to the dance floor scene and I am convinced that our sexy king was willing to risk it all when he danced with Emily, she was weighing her thoughts cause…. Just… look. At. This. Scene.
He has hardly smiled that wide often and soon after that he then went to contemplate his choices…..
And then I cant believe I completely forgot about this line!
In season 6 ugh and he also lost his shit when she was being beaten on in season 4 Hotch is LITERALLY PANICKING willing to jump in at a moments notice yall can literally scold me for not realizing 🤣🤣
I’m actually here for Tyler. I told you he was bad news. Twice. But who I speak to is my business.
WEDNESDAY | 1x03 “Friend or Woe”
Happy Star Wars Day!
It is Wednesday, my dudes🖤🖤
You can find the full scene on YouTube but boy do I love these few seconds!
I love the way Donna moves back and Harvey swoops in, like finally he’s mustered up enough courage to cross the line. I LOVE LOVE how the chorus of the song is perfectly timed with their kiss, the song choices on this show is impeccable. I love how Harvey closes the door behind him while holding his gaze on Donna. The pacing of this scene too; they kiss, pause, and then slide swiftly across the room. I’ve clearly watched this scene way too many times 😍
Tyler, barging in the room: YOU'RE NOT HAVING KIDS?!
Enid: Tyler? what? how did you get in here?? who told you?!
Tyler: WHO ELSE? AJAX! TELL ME NOW THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE KIDS.
Enid: We will not be having kids.
Tyler: IF YOU WON'T HAVE KIDS, THEN WHO WILL BE FRIENDS WITH OUR KIDS?
Enid: They will find other friends.
Tyler: OH SURE, BECAUSE WEDNESDAY'S DNA PLUS MY DNA EQUALS A KID WHO KNOWS HOW TO MAKE FRIENDS. THINK ENID, THINK.

Aaron's pov:
I slammed the door and exhaled heavily. I thought running might help to focus on other things. Other things then Catalina. I have two and a half hours until I told her I would show up at her apartment. Two and a half hours until I would spend the whole evening with her on a date. On a fake date, this stupid little voice in my head reminded me. As if I didn’t know. She is not mine and she might never be. I don’t think that there will come the day that I am the reason for her smile. When she smiles her whole face brightens up. Her eyes start to shimmer and it feels like looking in a night sky full of stars. Her dark brown eyes matched with hair, although they have a golden touch if the sun is shining on it. I remember the day that her appearance got stuck in my had. She was sitting with Rosie in this café. It rained earlier that day but right as I saw her the sun fell on her. She was the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. If I hadn't adored her before, that would have been the moment I fell for her. I looked up and automatically I looked at the picture of my mother. „You would love her.“ I whispered with a little smile on my lips.
My phone vibrated in my pocket and I took it out just to see an email notification. I unlocked it and immediately started to smile again. Catalina. She should have my number but as stubborn as I know her, she did not saved it. Mr. Blackford. That sounds typical for her and caused a slight smile on my face. I typed in my answer to the question of more details for this evening, the auction. Seconds before my finger pressed send I stopped. I thought about giving her the information she wanted and compered this option, with the one I preferred. I have not been able to think about any thing else this day, so why should I not be a little bit egoistic? I deleted the words and typed in my new answer. I'll be there in an hour. Best, Aaron. So I have one hour to get myself ready. Walking towards my closet I started to think about this evening. Normally I thought about the auction itself but today Catalina dominated my thoughts. What will she be wearing? Will there be a man that will get her interest? What if she meets someone she wants to spend the evening, maybe the whole night with? Should I ask her to dance with me? Would she dance with me? I have never been this nervous before a date and we are only faking it. I picked out the suit I wanted to wear and hurried to take a shower. Half an hour later I am still imagining all possible scenarios for this evening. I am standing in front of a mirror and try to tide my tie. My dad thought me how to tie it in middle school. A casual suit, similar to the suits I wore before. I checked again on myself in the mirror and run my hand through my hair one more time. Then I left.
During the ride to her apartment I turned up the music still trying to think about anything else than the woman I am going to pick up. Even the radio isn’t on my side - only love songs are playing. Why did I even try? She is always on my mind. There hasn’t been nearly any moment with our her in the last twenty months. My life has been the same since that day. At work I’m always trying to be near to Catalina, to see her talk to Rosie or just working and off work I thought about the day, what she was wearing, what she said. The things she said about me are the ones that I overthink all the time. She called me multiple names, not all of them very nice and I can’t figure out if she means them. I know it is my fault, she wanted to be nice on my first day and I messed up and before I realized what stunning woman wanted be to be her friend I became the coworker she can not stand. I turned into her street and parked in front of her building, but I did not get out of the car. The next five minutes I sat there in silence, only focusing on my breath. As I calmed down a little bit I get out and walked up the stairs. I knocked on the door ans a few moments later Catalina opened, wearing a weird jacket and her hair are put up in a messy bun. Wow, she’s beautiful.
Enid: Is it so hard for you to be the bigger person sometimes?
Wednesday: I have no need to entertain idiocy-
Tyler, struggling to talk while laughing: SHE, sHE CAN'T- She's literALLY bORN- WHOO- small.
Wednesday: You have 3 seconds to run.
Tyler: You know what? Not even gonna. It's worth it-
