A Possible Aftermath toĀ āThrough the Looking Glass Ruinsā
Eda is sitting on the couch, reading a book, while King is sleeping in her lap. Itās quite the domestic moment.
Luz: (Burst through the door) EDA!
Both Eda and King are startled. Luz runs over in a frantic with the echo mouse perched on her shoulder.
Luz: EDA EDA EDA EDA EDAā
Eda: Kid, calm down! Deep breath in.
Eda: Good. Now can you please calmlyĀ explain what the heck happend?
King: And whyād you had to interupt my nap because of it.
Luz: Ok, so, after searching through the restricted section of the library, I accidentally got Amity fired. So I went through these trials to get her job back to find that sheās got new cute hair, and after some more talking sheā¦SHE KISSED ME!
Luz: She kissed me! (Begins) And, well, it wasnāt a kiss-kiss. More like a peck on the cheek. But still, she did it after saying this super nice thing about how I warm my way into peopleās hearts! What does that even mean!? Thereās no way thatās platonic, right? I wouldnāt know! Because I never had anybody make the first move on meĀ before. Especially when itās someone whoās so perfect and beautiful and awesome and nice and kind and and andā
Luz begins to rapidly inhale and exhale.
Eda: Thatās not breathing. Thatās hyperventalating (Leads Luz onto the couch) Look, why donāt you, uhā¦(Takes the Echo Mouse off Luzās shoulder), why donāt you pet this echo mouseā¦also, why do you have an echo mouse?
Luz: (Numbly) Because she ate the journal of the first human.
Luz: (Numbly) I call her SeƱora Squeakers. I really felt like we bonded on the walk over here.
Eda: Well, then why donāt you petĀ SeƱora Squeakers to calm down. Doing cute things makes you feel better, right?
Luz takesĀ SeƱora Squeakers out of Edaās hands and gently pets her.Ā SeƱora Squeakers falls asleep in Luzās hand because of it.
Eda: Great. Now,Ā you gotta stop overthinking this. Mostly because thereās nothing to overthink! This girl you like kissed you, and by the sounds of things, she meant something by it.
Eda: Meaning that once youāre all calmed, and the excitement of today is over, nothingās stopping you from talking to Amity about it. And when you do, I can garantee that the odds are very much going to be in your favor.
Luz: ā¦You really think so.
Eda: I know so. (Messes up Luzās hair) Now go up and get some sleep. By the looks of things, you could really use the rest.
Luz: Okā¦(Smiles) Thanks, Eda.
Luz makes her way upstairs with SeƱora Squeakers.
King:Ā ā¦So are you like her mother, now?
King grumbles as he hands Eda some cash.
King: How was I supposed to know they were more than just good friends!
