Wavier

Wavier is the het ship between Xavier Thorpe and Wednesday Addams from the The Addams Family fandom.

Canon
Wednesday attended Xavier's godmother's funeral since his godmother was friends with her grandmother. Since they were age ten and they were bored, they decided to play hide and seek, and Xavier hid in his godmother's casket but found himself unable to get out as it was headed to the crematorium. Wednesday heard muffled screams and figured Xavier's godmother had somehow cheated death and was trying to claw her way out. She hit the stop button to stop Xavier from being cremated.

Wednesday's Child is full of a Woe
Xavier witnesses Wednesday's fencing matches against Bianca. Later, Wednesday met Xavier after he saved her from being crushed by a stone gargoyle by Rowan's powers. When they met at the hospital, Xavier told her that she didn't have a good concussion and that she has a pretty big bump. Wednesday told him that the last thing he remembered from before being unconscious was having a huge feeling of rage after losing against Bianca. Xavier agreed that losing against Bianca make you fell like that. Wednesday also told him that when she saw that gargoyle fall on her she though that atleast her death would be creative,until he saved her. Then Wednesday asked him why did he saved her and Xavier answered that it was just a instinct thing. Wednesday joked saying that he was possessed by an strange chivalry and he only did that in order to get her "eternal gratitude". Xavier asked her to at least thank him and she told him that she didn't want him to save him from the start. Xavier tells her that she couldn't let that thing crush her and Wednesday replied that that would have saved her herself, to which Xavier says she hasn't changed and he was returning the favor. When Wednesday doesn't recall his name or what he's talking about, Xavier recalls what happened when they were ten years old.

They met again at the Harvest Festival. Wednesday was at a booth blowing up balloons for a panda, hitting the target every time. Xavier joked that if he continued like this he would end up taking all the pandas, and Wednesday sarcastically replied no because pandas don't group in herds and prefer solitude. Then Wednesday told him that he was waiting for someone and Xavier asked him "who was the lucky guy... or the lucky girl". Wednesday replied that it was none of his business, until Tyler arrived and Xavier left.

Woe Is the Loneliest Number
Wednesday is instructed by Principal Weems to try out some of Nevermore’s extra curricular activities. She finds Xavier practicing archery, and he asks her if she’s ever shot a bow and arrow before, to which Wednesday replies ‘only on live targets.’ This earns some raised eyebrows from Xavier, but he continues to give Wednesday an archery lesson nonetheless. When he asks her if she has any questions, she switches the topic of conversation to Rowan, who has mysteriously emerged back at Nevermore unharmed despite Wednesday witnessing his murder the night before. She interrogates Xavier about the last time he saw his roommate, and he confirms the last time he saw Rowan was at the Harvest Festival. Xavier quickly switches the conversation once again, this time to the topic of Wednesday and Tyler. Wednesday insists there is nothing between her and Tyler and that he was only at the Harvest Festival to do Wednesday a favour by driving her out of town. Xavier advises Wednesday to steer clear of Tyler because he and his friends are 'a bunch of jerks'. Wednesday is unimpressed and implies Xavier has had his life handed to him on a silver platter. Xavier quips back with 'girls in glass houses…', as Wednesday is also from a wealthy family, but she just calls Xavier an ‘elitist snob’ before shooting her arrow and an apple right into the middle of the target, showing off better archery skills than Xavier.

Later in Thornhill’s botany class, Xavier invites Wednesday to sit at the open spot next to him… if she can stand sitting that close to an elitist snob. Wednesday doesn’t reply but sits next to him anyway. Xavier brings his sketch of a spider to life at their table and sends it scuttling towards Wednesday. He prompts Wednesday to admit she’s a little impressed by this. Instead, she proceeds to slam her hand into the table, destroying the animated spider. Xavier closes his sketch book, evidently disappointed.

That evening, Wednesday breaks into Rowan and Xavier’s dorm room, looking for a book she saw in one of her psychic visions. She waits until Xavier disappears into the bathroom for a shower before she begins her search. She finds his sketch book on his desk, which contains a drawing of four ravens, a sketch of the gargoyle that almost killed Wednesday, and finally a portrait of Wednesday. Wednesday pauses, confused by this, but moves on to continue investigating the dorm room. Just as she is about to leave, someone knocks on the door and Xavier exits the bathroom. Wednesday quickly hides under Xavier’s bed, where she and Thing listen in on Xavier’s private conversation with his ex-girlfriend, Bianca. Bianca reveals that Xavier was worried Rowan would do something to Wednesday and he has been keeping a close eye on her as a result. However, Bianca questions Xavier on if there is another reason why he has been following Wednesday around, implying she believes Xavier has a romantic interest in Wednesday. Bianca asks him what he sees in her, and Xavier suggests his interest in Wednesday might be because she hasn’t tried to manipulate him. Bianca insists she and Xavier were good together, but Xavier is unsure about this and wonders if that is just how Bianca wanted him to feel. Bianca warns Xavier that Wednesday Addams is not the girl of his dreams, but rather the stuff of his nightmares. She leaves, and Wednesday and Thing share a bewildered look.

Friend or Woe
Wednesday is ambushed by the Nightshades, a secret society, and Xavier suggests they invite her to pledge, reminding the rest of the society members that she is a legacy as the daughter of Morticia and Gomez Addams, who had been Nightshades members when they were students at Nevermore. Wednesday, however, declines the offer, insisting she is not interested in joining the Nightshades.

Later, during Outreach Day in Jericho, Wednesday approaches Xavier, who is staring at a blank wall. When Wednesday asks him why he’s staring at a blank wall, he reveals it wasn’t blank last Outreach Day. Wednesday thinks Xavier is still stewing because she rejected his invitation to the Nightshades, believing she is just ‘cannon fodder in whatever cold war’ Xavier is waging with Bianca. She then tells Xavier she has more pressing matters on her mind: like tracking down the monster that killed Rowan. Xavier scoffs, reminding Wednesday that Rowan was expelled. They bicker and Xavier stalks off, but Wednesday follows him, pulling out the Nightshades journal she stole from the library. Xavier tells her she can now add ‘thief’ to her resume, but also admits he has seen the book before, a couple days before the Harvest Festival, open on Rowan’s desk. Wednesday tells him that Rowan threw him against the wall with his telekinesis, and when Xavier asks her how she knows this, she lies and tells him it was a ‘lucky guess’, when in fact she had seen it during a psychic vision. Xavier admits it is weird that Wednesday is in the book considering it is 30 years old, and mentions Crackstone being in the picture with her. He reveals to Wednesday that Joseph Crackstone was basically Jericho’s founding father. The pair then head to the bleachers together to watch Weems and the Mayor give their speeches.

Wednesday later visits The Weathervane, where Xavier is working his outreach assignment with Tyler. Xavier offers Wednesday a coffee but she declines, saying she is there for Tyler. Xavier appears downcast at this, and reminds Wednesday that he told her Tyler was bad news. Wednesday asserts that who she speaks to is her business, and Xavier walks off dejectedly when Tyler appears.

Xavier surprises Wednesday when he finds her out in Cobham Woods during a downpour, following a particularly disturbing psychic vision. He asks her what she’s doing, and she tells him she was following the monster. Xavier appears much more receptive to the idea of the monster being real this time, and asks Wednesday if she saw it and if she has a death wish. Wednesday says she has learned that the monster is human, and attempts to show Xavier its tracks in the mud as proof, but the rain has washed them all away. Xavier scoffs but insists he is trying to keep an open mind about the monster. They start walking together beneath Xavier’s umbrella, and Xavier confesses that Wednesday might be right about Rowan being dead after all, after texting him and catching him out with a lie. Xavier asks Wednesday to be honest with him about why she was out at the old pilgrim meeting house in the first place, and Wednesday is surprisingly candid with him, telling him she was trying to learn more about Crackstone. Xavier thinks Wednesday was also trying to use her psychic abilities, and when she asks him why he thinks she has any, he parrots her earlier words to him: ‘lucky guess.’ He reveals his father, Vincent Thorpe, is also a psychic. Xavier gives Wednesday some advice about her visions, telling her they can’t be trusted, but Wednesday thinks he’s just mansplaining her power. Xavier reveals his father, the ‘expert’ would warn Wednesday that psychic ability isn’t rooted in logic, but triggered by emotions, and emotions are not exactly Wednesday’s strong suit. Wednesday doesn't take kindly to this advice, however, and walks off into the rain, leaving Xavier exasperated.
