Enid is the worst character in the show, such a tired cliché “the quirky happy person is friends with the broody cynical goth”
I had high hopes when she first appeared onscreen because I thought they were gonna recreate the Wednesday — Amanda Buckman dynamic, but alas...they had to make Enid some cookie cutter Rainbow Sprite bitch. Also a literal stereotype of a dumb blonde who runs a gossip blog but can't spell the names of the people she gossips about and also sucks so bad at sniffing out gossip/secrets that she didn't have a fucking clue that there was a 'secret society' on campus. These are canon facts bruhs.
I think it would've been more interesting if they had made Enid a stuck up bitch who had to come to her own type of friendship terms. That Weems forced the pair because she knew Enid was a stuck up bitch who no one wanted to room with, which was fine because she didn't want to room with anyone else either. Not so much a foil to Wednesday as a mirror, where they would both stumble sometime and have to find their way back towards cooperation and friendship. Mean!Enid..."Meanid" LOL — who is also a bit of a snot because of the way she's treated at home by Esther (so that hasn't really changed, the change would be in how Enid copes with it).
Ooooh, see, now that's fertile ground for a Wenclair situation since that's serious Enemies to Lovers and they'd both be all that the other person really had, given Meanid's reputation. And no one said she couldn't still be into rainbows. It would just make it even more obnoxious, which would be good for the satire when they're both competing to see who can be the bigger shit to the other. (Could've meant for more interesting hijinx with any "love triangles" too. Can you imagine Meanid & Ajax? Oh that poor boy 🥲)
One of yous Wenclairs better write this Meanid shit because I don't have the time.
(I did this a very long time ago in AI. I can do better now, but meh I am SO busy 💔)
