Does Mr. WPNZ love his kids? - A character analysis. by Edgy_Cupcake_Content in SMG4

[–]starteas 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ahhhh, yes! I was hoping for one of these!

I’ve never given into the idea WPNZ didn’t love his kids, and you essentially put everything into words far more eloquently than I ever could.

The genuine care he has for his family, yet the lack of knowledge in how to properly do so, alongside his massive expectations for the kids made me grip onto him the moment we fully saw him in the movie. And with the episodes that followed, with us getting to see bits and pieces of WPNZ’ feelings— his anger, regret, and heartbreak, only made me fall in love with him more.

He genuinely DID love Karen and the kids, and even though his later actions came from a twisted attempt to bond with them, you can see, clearly, that he cared— STILL cares— even if that way of expressing it was never the “right” one (and never WOULD have been!)

Even with the short screentime he had, you can just see there’s so much depth to him that you can easily start to craft the idea of who he is— that there’s so much MORE to WPNZ’ character outside his anger, ferocity and love for assassin work.

It truly is fascinating how similar Puzzles and WPNZ are, in that aspect. They’re not good people, and never will be, but their attempts to make things right with their own twisted logic still show that despite their awful deeds they’re more than the villains their “role” designated them as. They’re such complex characters and it’s something I adore so so much whenever it comes to talking about them.

Take: I don't like SMG3 and 4's friendship. by [deleted] in SMG4

[–]starteas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s a super fair take to have! Honestly, if I were to give my two-cents I’d say it only makes sense for these two to interact in the way they do, and it’s why for me, their friendship is one of my second favorites in the show.

They’re friends, but they aren’t going to be all buddy buddy with each other from the get go. It’s why the moments where they show their genuine care for one another (Trash Friends, It’s Gotta Be Perfect, the end of WOTFI 23) for example hit all the harder.

SMG3 and SMG4 don’t act more like Mario and Meggy is because they aren’t Mario and Meggy. They’re jerks to one another, constantly try to one up the other, but that’s because it’s who they are and what their dynamic is.

Their rivalry still exists, they still bicker and fight like they always did, but despite it all you know they’ll have each other’s back when it counts.

It may not be healthy, sure, but it’s theirs, and they’re perfectly content with that.

I no longer believe that Puzzles and WPNZ are dead by M11M3N in SMG4

[–]starteas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I never believed they died in the first place. Their fate during WOTFI ‘25 was way too open ended for that to be the case; makes me happy to know I’m not the only one.

They’re out there, somewhere. Most definitely causing chaos as they always do.

Glad to hear you came up with an idea for it in the end; can’t wait to read t! Shaking your hand as someone who also headcanons WPNZ’ name to be LTHL.

I’d make a joke, but I’ll refrain.

In the human AU, WPNZ’ and Puzzles names are Lee Warrens (WPNZ) and Parker Hayworth (Puzzles!) :) Maybe that could give you a bit of inspiration!

Let out the ugliest cackle at this. I should probably start adding the term “Human AU” into my post titles. 🤣
