I still don't believe that in the Brazilian dubbing of "throught the looking glass ruins" they actually made Emira say that luz only came to the library to make out with Amity like what

There's just something about artificial beings created for evil who meet people who help them realize they can be good instead.

Something Ventured Someone Framed (or something like that)

Mattholomule was many things.

Maybe he could be a jerk, maybe he could scheme a bit too much.

But how could he not? Glandus taught him very specific lessons, even when he had trouble following them. Even when he didn’t have the same fire, the same disregard for rules, that the other students did.

He loved drama, and had been taught he should love power. So when he got to Hexside and found out power came rarely there - that only people like the Blights or the Captain of the Banshees could truly rule over the school, he had improvised.

Clubs were big in Glandus. All of them. Being the head of a club was like showing everyone all of the people in the same club as you were ruled over. It was power.

And even if being the head of the Human Appreciation Society didn’t seem to get someone instant results - Augustus was pretty unremarkable - he could turn it around. Make the position worth something.

It didn’t matter who he had to mess with on the way up.

uhhh yesterday's lie(?)! or whichever one has Vee, don't remember

It took Camila a while to go into the house.

Vee had left so that Camila and Luz would get a moment to talk alone, but she was still unsure of her place in the Noceda house now that Camila knew the truth.

Camila went in, crying, and Vee hesitated. Back when she still pretended to be Luz, this would be the moment where she would try to comfort her, but was that even her place?

"I guess whatever way of connection Luz had is gone?" Vee asked, having looked around the mirrors in the room but not seeing her.

"She... chose to stay there," Camila said. "I think it stopped being a choice at some point, but she still..."

Vee transformed into Luz in order to put a hand on Camila's shoulder, trying to comfort her. "I've talked to the girl. She loves you. Whatever happened... it wasn't your fault."

"Wasn't it?" Camila asked. "You've been here, in the place of my daughter, for a while now. Was I..."

"You were amazing," Vee cut her off. "You are amazing. I'm sure once Luz comes back, you two can do... great mother-daughter activities."

"You will stay here as well, right?"

"...if you'll have me," Vee said.

Camila's eyes were still watering, but she smiled at Vee.

At Vee. Not Luz.

It made her feel at home.

a lying witch and a warden

I'm kind of stretching the whole "based on the episode" here, but it IS set during it.

Number Five knew she was out of her element.

She knew very little about the human girl. Her name - Lus? Luz? She wasn’t even sure how it was written - and that she’d run away from home, probably.

And how she was going to be stuck inside of a moving object with the girl’s mom for who knew how long.

But you never knew if you could do something until you tried, and this was a chance for a fresh start.

“Are you sure you don’t want to go back for your book?” the woman asked after they first started moving.

“Not really,” Number Five said. “I don’t think I’ll need it.”

“You don’t need to change everything about yourself to please me,” the woman offered. “Just… go into camp with an open mind. Who knows, maybe you’ll leave it with a few friends.”

“Alright,” Number Five said. “I’ll try.”

Five wasn’t entirely sure what a camp was - maybe it was a thing in the Boiling Isles as well, but she certainly hadn’t had a normal life there even by the Isles’ standards. But she was going to try to make this woman proud.

After spending just this small amount of time with her she couldn’t understand why Lus would want to run away from home, when the person waiting at home was someone like her.

What could possibly be bad enough to want to leave a person who clearly loved you this much behind?

Five felt like being away from her as soon as she got to camp would be hard enough, and they had barely met.

But Lus had given her a gift by leaving. Number Five would make the most of it for as long as she could.

Even if she knew she’d run out of magic eventually.

Season 1 episode 11 "Sense and Insensitive" for hiatus ficlet. Following Eda and Lilith. Please 💙

Lilith didn't know too much about the Emperor, even after all of these years working directly for him.

But she did know he struggled with his health, that he needed magic to keep himself going.

If she could guess, she would say he had fallen prey to the old method of enlarging one's life. But it was usually done for a few months or a couple years, to get your affairs in order.

If he had been going for so long that he still seemed relatively young fifty years after the beginning of his reign... who even knew what it was doing to his body.

Getting the secret of eternal youth? Lilith knew if she did that she could ask for whatever she wanted in return, and the Emperor would want to please her. Had to, after she helped him to such an extent.

And Lilith's dearest wish was finding a way to make up for cursing Edalyn.

She would do whatever it took to do so - even if it meant going through Edalyn herself.

[luzura]

Actually, it’s hiatus time so send me a toh episode and I’ll do a ficlet that has to do with it.

21 Lumity

21. …on a place of insecurity.

"How's my girlfriend doing?" Amity asked, a bit of a thrill still in being able to refer to Luz as her girlfriend.

"Better," Luz said. "Barely remember what happened when I was sick, honestly."

"Good," Amity said. Eda had collected the Titan's Blood when Amity had to go home, and while Luz had seemed better by then, common mold was known to come and go sometimes, so it was good that hadn't happened to Luz.

"I'm glad nothing bad happened to you on Eclipse Lake," Luz said. "After hearing more of the journal I was so worried."

"I'm tough," Amity said with a shrug. "I'm sorry I couldn't keep the key."

"You being alright is more important," Luz said, hugging Amity again.

"Still..." Amity closed and opened her hand, thinking of the moment she had squeezed the key, a last ditch effort so Luz wouldn't be stuck here forever.

Luz took Amity's hand. "You did more than most people would have been able to. Which isn't surprising, really, you are my awesome girlfriend."

Amity smiled - something she seemed to be doing more and more since she had started dating Luz.

Luz raised Amity's hand to her lips and kissed it, like she was saying it was alright that Amity had let the key go.

For a moment, it made Amity forget everything else.

20, ship of your choice

20. …on a scar.

Raine knew they didn't look very nice.

Not when the effects of their coven tattoo had left so many scars over their arm and face.

But the way Eda looked at them right now, like none of that mattered...

"I need to see if the former members of the healing coven can fix... all of this," Raine said, looking at their arm in the mirror.

"You can if you want to," Eda was sitting on Raine's bed, looking at them while they looked at the mirror. "But you know..." Eda narrowed her eyes, like she was seeing through Raine. "They don't really change anything."

"Yes, well..." Raine trailed off, already feeling a bit flustered.

"I'm serious," Eda said. "My harpy form doesn't change how you feel about me, right? So why would your scars be different for me?"

"Still..." Raine looked at the mirror once again. "It just makes it clearer, how things aren't how they were when we were together."

Eda got up, moving to put her arms around them. "I was a mess when we were together. This is a new beginning, right?"

"A happy beginning," Raine found themself agreeing, a small smile on their face.

"See?" Eda said, kissing the scar on their neck. "I can at least still make you smile."

Raeda + 40

40. …because the world is ending.

Sure, maybe Eda had succeeded at finding and saving Raine.

Too bad it may be too late to save the rest of the Isles.

"Well," Eda tried to quip, looking around the weird crew she put together to try and stop Belos. "Any last words?"

"It's not over yet," Luz said. Funny how the kid still had so much confidence, when the adults in the group were faltering the most.

"We can still stop Belos," Raine said, and Eda looked over at them. "But the Isles probably won't be left intact at this point."

"We'll do what we can," Eda said.

With a weird plan that, going by their usual, was likely not going to work, everyone separated.

It just happened that the plan involved Eda and Raine working together.

"This is going to be a mess," Eda said, turning into her harpy form. "Be ready."

"Always am," Raine said. "But..."

"Yeah?"

"Look, if the Isles may burn, I'm glad I got to see you again," Raine said, honestly, and Eda just...

She couldn't help it, she kissed them.

The world could go down around them all, and Eda had spent long enough avoiding and lying about how she felt.
