If Harry had gotten a less conventional, but more loving adoptive family…
Dear Minerva,
Thank you so much for your kind letter of the 17th. It is always a pleasure to hear from you. I do appreciate your waiving the rules about familiars to allow Wednesday to bring little Homer - she dotes on that spider, and I don’t think she could consider Hogwarts home without his company.
We were delighted but completely unsurprised by the children’s Sorting. Of course Wednesday is a Ravenclaw - she has always had a brilliant mind, and it is rather traditional for the women in our family. Slytherin might have been a possibility, with her cleverness and ambition, but sadly (and quietly, between friends) I must admit the wrong sort have rather taken over that House at the moment. Death Eaters are so vulgar. Gomez, naturally, is over the moon about our little Harry being a fellow Gryffindor - the world does need more dashing, brave, and reckless men. They make life so interesting for the rest of us, don’t you agree? And I am certain he will be safe under your care, after his rather difficult start in life, poor child. That aunt and uncle of his are just too terribly common to protect him adequately - I am grateful Albus saw sense and left him with us rather than her.
I appreciate your bringing to my attention the small difficulty between Harry and Draco - I shall have a word with Narcissa. (Lucius is still being terribly silly about that little peacock incident, and refuses to speak to Gomez at all. Men can be so ridiculously proud. And they really did look so much better in black.) Really, though, Harry was only defending his friend. I probably should warn you that Wednesday writes that she is teaching young Longbottom a few of her more subtle defenses - I sincerely doubt Draco will trouble him in future if he uses those. I assure you, none of them cause permanent damage, only temporary discomfort, and she is well aware that they are only for self-defense, not mere childish aggression. Addamses do not start fights, but we do finish them, and Wednesday has always looked out for her brothers.
At least that little incident allowed you to see Harry’s flying skills in time to recruit him for the Quidditch team. I think he shall be an excellent Seeker - he was always the best at bat-spotting on summer evenings, and then there was the time he “borrowed” Gomez’s broom to rescue Pugsley’s pet octopus Aristotle, who had developed an unaccountable taste for tree-climbing, but had neglected to learn how to climb down. It was a successful rescue, even though he was mildly hampered on his descent by Aristotle clinging to his face in terror.
Please send my apologies to Severus for that unfortunate incident in Potions class. I should have warned him that Wednesday was experimenting with, shall we say, some variant recipes. I am quite certain, however, that Miss Parkinson’s hair will grow back normally, and that the snakes are only a temporary embellishment.
My best regards, and do drop by for tea if you ever happen to be in the neighborhood. Thing has perfected your favorite shortbread recipe - I do believe he has a little crush on you. Or perhaps it is merely that you are the only visitor we have had, outside of family, who is sensible enough to shake hands with him without flinching.
Yours truly,
Morticia Addams
THIS! THIS SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED!

anyway, fun fact: shane dawson is an angel
thank you for ur time
Do your research. Y'all are fake woke. This is why we have such huge issues with stupidity in this country. Everyone believes everything they read and doesn’t bother to fact check or even make up their own minds. Stay off my feed if you are actually going to use that video as proof because it was heavily edited and taken way out if context. Quit trying to rile yourselves up like this.
I stand with Shane Dawson.
Shane Dawson is not a pedophile. Shane Dawson is not a pedophile. Shane Dawson is not a pedophile. Shane Dawson is not a fucking pedophile. I’m not going to explain why because the proof has been all splayed out for you to see, and frankly it’s not worth my time.
If you want to unfollow me go right the fuck ahead.

hi, I’ve quietly stanned Shane Dawson for about three years now. His old content was pretty bad, but one of the reasons I love watching him so much is because he’s changed. He’s changed comedy wise, personality wise, and overall. He’s a better person than he was six years ago. Aren’t we all? Look back on the shit you did six years ago and tell me it wasn’t problematic.
All you witch hunting, drama seeking, life sucking leeches need to sit down and know the facts before you go spreading such awful things about people. This is level ten bull shit.
Should he had said it? Of course not. Did he? Yes. Did he apologize? Yes. Did he apologize well? I’d say so. Has he changed? For sure.
The person who manipulated that video of Shane’s podcast from years ago to say he’s a pedophile is disgusting. Although his jokes were distasteful, they were just that, jokes. He has grown up so much since then and has admitted the jokes were wrong. These accusations are career ruining, especially since these are entirely false. Stop feeding into people saying just about anything to get attention, and look into the real issues of pedophilia. Shane has no way been associated with pedophilia unless he is reporting a conspiracy theory to keep his fans updated on the issues. I love Shane so much and I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for him.
Go ahead and block me if you think Shane Dawson is a pedophile. Thanks!
