    Summary

    Seven years ago, Enid and Wednesday's paths diverged after their High School graduation. It seemed unlikely that their paths would ever cross again.

    That is until Wednesday's neighbours, Claire and Joe Wainwright, make the decision to accept their son's offer to move into the cottage on his property. The only problem? They need to sell their current home first.

    The Addams family have no desire to see Claire and Joe move, and the various agents and realtors of Smith&Townes befall a series of unfortunate ‘accidents' at the hands of the Addams family.

    In a last ditch effort to get the Wainwrights out of their home by Christmas, Smith&Townes take a chance on an up-and-coming realtor from one of their satellite offices.

    Enid Sinclair has four months to sell a house, evading the schemes of various Addams family members along the way. She knows she might live to regret it but she's too good at her job not to try.

    But what happens when our former friends meet? Can friendship survive enemy fire? And what do they do about that awkward crush they've both been avoiding for seven years?

    OR
    Enid tries to sell a house, but Wednesday won't let her. Cue the shenanigans.

    Summary

    “Are you not afraid, Enid?”

    “Oh, almost always.” A soft smile radiates. “But not as much when I’m with you.”

    “What if…” Her throat is dry. “I am also afraid?”

    The smile simply grows. A golden hand grasps her own. “Then we’ll be afraid together.”

     

    Enid Sinclair, new Head Ranger on Patrol, has a lot of adjusting to do. In addition to a hectic work-life balance, she struggles with becoming less than half human. Meanwhile, her girlfriend suffers through the agony of physical existence.

    It’s a busy summer at the national park.

    Summary

    When vlogger @EnidSinFlair moved into a fixer-upper #ForTheViews, she expected to put up boutique wallpaper, get the best night of sleep ever with a mattress brand deal, and hopefully be sponsored by those Velcro, interchangeable rugs. Enid never anticipated needing to learn how to do demolition for mold removal, fix electrical, and especially – deal with the critters that come with owning a house that is more than one hundred years old. Unable to take it, she reaches out to a cryptic ad for pest removal that brings an even more mysterious young woman into her life.

    Wednesday arrives at the house and discovers the mess that Enid has is far beyond the scope of the influencer’s abilities, she decides to offer assistance with her myriad of skills (mostly just so she doesn’t kill herself on camera trying to install a lighting fixture). She soon learns that Enid isn't the girl she claims to be on camera, but Wednesday's got plenty of secrets of her own that need to be revealed.

    An unexpected partnership turns into so much more in an AU, multi-chapter adventure.

    Summary

    Away went Enid’s joyous coworker fantasies, filed back into the same cabinet as fairies, unicorns, and Taylor Swift coming out as gay.
    “I know places we can hide” would never be a lyric about closeted lesbian romance, and Wednesday Addams would never be the coworker of her dreams.

    --
    Wednesday joins the staff at Nevermore Café. It's the worst thing that could've happened. Until it starts being a little bit okay.

    Summary

    Wednesday Addams tries to piece together how it all happened.

    How the disdain for her roommate morphed from slight concern into a reluctant fondness, which then mutated into unabashed romantic affection. It felt inevitable, but in a rare kind of way. Like if her parents sneezed differently eight years ago, Enid Sinclair wouldn’t even be a part of her life.

    Is this how good luck feels? As if there has been a huge cosmic fuck-up that’s entirely in your favor? And you’re terrified that one day, some executive is going to review the files and fix this glaring anomaly? Then angrily yell at a low-level employee for such a rookie mistake before firing them?

    Nothing else makes sense. “Good” things don’t happen to the Addams family. They are a magnet for misfortune.
