... What now?
But Hunter couldn’t sleep and Luz couldn’t sleep and it seemed a time as good as ever to be putting the question out there when it was just the two of them.
---
The Day of Unity is over, and the gang is trapped in the human realm. Some Late Night Conversations are inevitable.
I knowwww, I should be working on all my other projects and AUs but this just came to my mind and before I knew it I had written over 6k words for it.
WE'RE ALL SUFFERING OKAY THIS IS MY WAY TO COPE
Anyway, suffer with me.
That being said, the new chapter for Built to Last is coming along well and I've started on my Bartender AU!
Otherwise, have fun with this first lmao
TRIGGER WARNING:
- PANIC ATTACK
Ao3 / FF.net
---
The evening bled into the night before either of them could even blink.
Camila had taken them all in immediately, having Vee ordering in Pizza to feed them all and preparing makeshift beds, mattresses, and mats for them to sleep on in the living room.
It hadn’t taken long for the first to break down. The others followed suit.
It hadn’t come as a surprise for anyone that the first had been Amity. She had swallowed all her concerns about her father and siblings to function in the fight. Gus had been next to break out in tears again, immediately comforted by Willow and Hunter while Luz and Amity had lied down on the couch, tightly cuddled up, as Amity wept.
Camila had taken a chair next to them to listen to Luz quietly explaining the past few months, while she had held her girlfriend in a warm embrace, patiently waiting until her tears had dried.
Willow had managed to hold on the longest and by the time she shed the first tear, it was late at night already.
These were the first few shocks.
Just a while later, the anxiety started.
And the big looming question of “What now?”
Camila had immediately shut down any doubts about going home. She had made sure everyone had new clothes on, was warm and fed and bandaged up, and she wouldn’t hear any fears about the future.
Somehow, her firm denial of any doubts put the children to rest.
Gus had been the first to fall asleep. Curled up into a little ball, he had made himself comfortable on one of the mattresses on the living room floor, the blanket wrapped around him so snuggly only his ear poked out from beneath it. Willow made sure to keep close to him, one of her hands constantly keeping contact with him, and that’s how she fell asleep, too.
She had long given up trying to hold onto him, so her relaxed, half-closed hand merely lay somewhere on the little huddled pile of witchling while she was sleeping tightly.
Hunter had made himself comfortable next to her, even if he couldn’t fall asleep yet. He was the closest to the couch where Luz and Amity stayed since Amity hadn’t been able to move from the spot after her breakdown.
Luz had turned to the side by now, overlooking her friends on the floor, and managed to wrap her girlfriend’s arms around her to spoon her, making sure she was comfortable.
Amity had contently snuggled into Luz’s back, her arm tightly wound around her middle as if she was afraid of losing her once she let go. Luz had only been able to loosen her grip somewhat by interlacing their fingers on her chest, occasionally placing a little kiss on Amity’s curled-up fingers.
But she couldn’t sleep, either.
She had pretended to sleep for the past ten minutes after her mother had shut off the lights and checked on them one last time. She had kissed Luz’s forehead and told her not to worry, they would find a solution, before tucking a strand of hair behind Amity’s ears and making sure the other kids were looked after as well.
Scrunching her face, Luz huffed quietly, listening to Willow’s soft snores because she was lying on her back, then she opened her eyes for just a short moment.
It wasn’t a surprise to her that Hunter stared back at her in the otherwise dark room, only illuminated dimly by the moon outside. It had stopped raining for now and the clouds had broken up to allow a little bit of the night sky to shine in, but the weather forecast had predicted it would begin raining again in a bit.
He was lying with his back to his captain, staring up at Luz unmoving, and she found herself staring back at him. She had meant to close her eyes again, but she supposed the unrest she had felt was partly due to him staring at her.
Amity behind her huffed softly and snuggled tighter into her back, she could feel her girlfriend’s adorable nose getting scrunched up against her shirt.
Pulling her arm a bit higher, Luz adjusted ever so slightly, Amity following her movement to stay close, then she nodded at Hunter.
“… Can’t sleep either?”, she asked in a hushed whisper, not to disturb her friends’ sleep. The boy in front of the couch shook his head softly, not wanting to make too much noise either, before sighing.
“… No.”, he whispered back, equally as quiet. Luz almost couldn’t hear him in the soft rustling of the wind.
They stayed quiet for another little while, none of them wanting to start first. Luz looked out the window across from her and Hunter looked at her. Both couldn’t seem to break the quiet.
Until Gus huffed and turned in his sleep. The silence was broken.
“… What now?”, Hunter asked, causing Luz to look back down at him with the dreaded question out there. The question Camila hadn’t allowed in her presence, not wanting the looming threat of despair to consume the teens quite yet.
But Hunter couldn’t sleep and Luz couldn’t sleep and it seemed a time as good as ever to be putting the question out there when it was just the two of them.
Luz looked at him for a minute that felt like an eternity, her mind only working slowly, as she went over all that had happened in the short time of this day. She didn’t know if Eda and Raine and all the other witches were really okay after the Collector had stopped the draining spell.
Sure, Hunter had stopped feeling the effects, and the magic flow had stopped, but she didn’t know if Eda’s curse had affected her too much.
King was at the mercy of a godchild now, and there was no way back. No Titan’s blood, no portal, no key, nothing. There wasn’t even a point to start at. No plan to follow, no lead to pursue, nothing.
Luz was just about ready to throw herself off a cliff with the uncertainty she was facing now.
Most of all – she felt responsible.
Not only responsible for helping Belos achieve the goals that had been necessary to lead up to this mess, but she also felt responsible for her friends ending up in the human realm along with her.
She was the human. She was the one they knew best, not her mother or Vee.
She was their guide, their anchor, she had to take responsibility to keep them safe.
Herding them, teaching them, educating them, and making sure they’d fit in, that all fell into her responsibility.
And finding a way back home. She knew that if she failed, she would consider herself the reason they were stranded here, away from their home, their families, and their other friends. Any familiarity they had.
And it was her fault, of course.
Philipp, Belos, the portal, the mess. Everything was her fault.
Breathing through, she squinted her eyes, then she looked back down to Hunter who was looking worried by now but didn’t seem to want to get up to comfort her, in the fear of waking Willow or Gus with that. Or Amity.
“… Tomorrow you’ll recharge and rest. I’ll go to the library and see if I can find anything. And to that guy’s museum, the one who captured Vee, to see if he has any other magic stored.”, she whispered, furrowing her eyebrows. She was sure she could find something if she looked hard enough.
Who knew, maybe they could recreate the way Philipp and his brother had ended up in the Boiling Isles. Eda’s mother had said garbage from the human realm got swept through the realms all the time, and that humans slipped through on occasion as well.
And the diary had made it sound like Philipp and his brother hadn’t come through to the Isles out of their own free will.
Whichever way it was, Luz would find it.
“… I’m coming with you.”, Hunter whispered and Luz already began shaking her head, but he wouldn’t let her object, “I want to know my roots.”
She couldn’t argue with that.
He was a grimwalker, which apparently meant he was a clone of Philipp’s brother if she could trust the bits and pieces of info they had gotten from fleeting glances at his memories.
She could understand him wanting to get to know his counterpart, the inspiration for his creator to make another. Especially if he looked the most like him, in Belos’ words.
But if she let Hunter come with, Amity would want to come as well. And with Amity, Willow would insist on coming, as well as Gus. If she was unlucky, Vee would want to help out, too, as well as her mother.
And then she would have a hell of a lot more pressure on her shoulders to find a solution to this.
Shaking her head, Luz huffed.
“No. You guys need to recharge and rest. I will go out to start. Maybe you can join me later.”, she tried but Hunter merely gave her a deadpan.
“Nice try.”, he dryly commented, “But you need rest, too. I won’t let you run off alone again.”
With an indignant pout, Luz nestled deeper into Amity’s embrace to escape his knowing glare, biting the inside of her lip.
“But you guys look like witches, you can’t just-”, she tried but Hunter was having none of it.
“We can wear hats, or use illusions.”, he pointed out, unimpressed by her weak protest, “Don’t try to do this alone.”
Luz hid her face in the pillow for a minute, before breathing through and rubbing her eyes. She had to convince him to leave her alone. It was her fault they were all here. It was her fault she couldn’t get them back to the Isles, that she didn’t know Eda was safe, or where that godchild had taken him. If the collector had enslaved the Isles or killed them all.
She remained quiet for a while, not wanting to move as she felt Amity’s hand curling and uncurling over her heart. She could probably feel her agitation in her sleep and didn’t like it.
Finally, Luz looked back up and out the window.
It was still quite windy, but still not raining. She could see the illuminated outlines of trees outside softly swaying in the wind, leaves rustling with each gust plowing through the crowns.
It was somehow serene, almost calm, as she stared out the window.
“… What now?”, it was now her turn to ask this question and Hunter sighed softly, shrugging as he adjusted to lie on his back, looking outside as well.
“We’ll have to adjust.”, he suggested, and Luz knew that was true. They wouldn’t find a way back within a few days. Maybe not even weeks. They would have to find a way to keep everyone safe here in the human realm. And help out her mom with some money and work around the house.
She supposed she would have to go back to school again.
“… We’ll have to help Mama, somehow.”, she mumbled and Hunter nodded, uncertain what that entailed but he was sure he could do some job to keep the woman that had taken everyone into her house financially stable. He could go bounty hunting or maybe he would be proficient as a soldier.
“Yeah…”, he lamely replied and Luz had the nerve to laugh softly, stifling her giggling as Hunter shot her a glare.
“I really don’t know what job you could be doing here.”, she said, as if she had read his mind, which made him huff indignantly.
“I’ll find something.”, he mumbled and heard her giggle again, before shuffling a bit. A small smile from Amity followed.
“Maybe you could help out on a construction site. Or in a supermarket. Though, I really think we should keep you away from interacting with too many people. You’re not the best actor.”, she mused and while Hunter wanted to protest that, he actually had to agree with her on this one. Interacting with fewer humans meant less stress for him to keep up a façade.
“Amity could help out in the library. She has some experience there, at least. Willow could help out as a gardener. I’m sure she would have an easier time working within her expertise. And Gus could help out in the cinema, maybe.”, she mumbled to herself, and Hunter realized this was more wishful thinking. She followed suit, “But we’ll probably just all end up in fast food anyway.”
He sent her an amused glance, prying his eyes away from the window to look at her briefly, before turning back to the moon.
“What’s fast food?”, he asked and Luz chuckled.
“Like not-dogs, but more of that.”, she decided on the simplest explanation. He could hear the tiredness in her voice. Turning back to her and lying back down on his side, he looked back up at her.
Luz was still looking out of the window, even as she noticed Hunter had returned to his old position of looking at her. The wind was picking up a little and she could see the little drops of the previous rain glistening in the moonlight. It was mesmerizing to see something as normal and bland as leftover raindrops sparkling in the moonlight.
“… You okay?”, he finally asked and Luz sighed, feeling the dread pooling in her stomach again. She was tired and exhausted and overwhelmed and most definitely not okay. But she wouldn’t tell him that.
On the other hand… She really should begin telling the others that she was not okay. She wouldn’t be able to hide it in the long run, especially with her mother and Amity around. Her girlfriend had proven more than once that she was capable of looking right through her, and her mother knew her all her life. Now living together with Willow and Gus would surely make them more sensitive to her actual mindset.
She gave herself until tomorrow when they would start to notice something was seriously wrong.
Biting and chewing on her lip, she contemplated if she should start now with Hunter and risk the wrath of her girlfriend in the morning when she realized she had not been the first to be included in Luz’s wellbeing, or wait until tomorrow and risk not telling anyone at all until they’d inevitably pick up on it.
Finally, she decided against her usual way of trying to keep it a secret for as long as possible. Eda had taught her as much. It was always better to talk about what weighed down on her and to find a solution together. She had been able to look right through her as well. Luz wondered how she was doing right now.
“I-… I feel like… Why we’re here, I mean…”, she gulped and played around with Amity’s fingers, trying to procrastinate actually having to say it. It would mean taking responsibility. Something she knew she had to do but was terrified of.
“Stop blaming yourself.”, she finally heard after a few minutes and looked up to see Hunter still staring at her. He looked sympathetic, and she could tell he’d been through this for himself already.
“… How can I not?”, Luz finally asked, blinking away her tears. She could feel her sleeping girlfriend press a soft kiss to her neck at her sniffles as if to comfort her.
“It’s not your fault.”, Hunter simply stated, narrowing his eyes, “But if you believe helping Belos was your fault, you have to blame me, too. I’ve been helping him all my life. I got him your Titan’s blood.”
Immediately, Luz shook her head.
“I wouldn’t ever blame you-”, she started and he cut her off.
“Then don’t blame yourself either.”, he said, pulling the blanket tighter around him. Suddenly, he looked so mature to Luz, even if he was just sixteen, just two years older than her. The way the moon illuminated the back of his head and the way his expression spoke of a deeply rooted guilt he’d been carrying with him ever since they had left Belos’ mind, made him look older.
He looked back up at her and Luz worried her lip, trying to think of a way to go against his argument. She couldn’t do anything against the feeling of guilt that was weighing heavily on her shoulders. And she didn’t want to work against it either. It felt righteous, justified to be blaming herself.
“You were just following orders. He would hurt you when you didn’t obey. I was helping him out of my own free will.”, she argued and Hunter scoffed at that.
“I still enabled him. And you didn’t know better. At the end of the day, he just exploited us both.”
Luz still wasn’t happy with his reasoning. Grumbling, she once again pushed her nose into the pillow, eyeing him, before facing him.
“Ignorance is no excuse in law.”, she mumbled, which almost caused Hunter to sit up, but after flinching, he thought again and settled back down, not wanting to jostle Willow or Gus, or startle Amity awake. He was about sixty percent sure she would immediately attack him, should he threaten Luz in any way.
“That was no ignorance. You just didn’t know, and Belos deceived you. If you had known who he would turn out to be, you would have done everything to stop him.”, his whispers got a bit more aggressive, though he didn’t raise his voice.
Luz pouted at him trying to reason with her, scrunching her eyebrows, before looking down.
She had been deceived. She hadn’t known.
Still, it did little to alleviate the pressure on her chest, nor did it help her get rid of the blame she felt. Not only for helping him but also for ditching her friends once the Owl House had gone into hiding, for getting herself captured by Kikimora, disguised as Hunter, to be taken to Belos. For trying to fight him alone, for almost getting herself petrified, for being so useless in their fight against him, for-
It took a few attempts for Hunter’s voice to get through to her.
She had in no way intended to ignore him, but her panic had gotten the better of her. So much so that Hunter had in the end sat up to scoot closer to the couch, uncertainly patting her shoulder.
Luz’s eyes finally focused on him, if only to blur over immediately while she tried her hardest to contain herself, then Hunter leaned forward to cradle her head and let her bury her face in his chest.
Amity snuffled and pressed herself tighter into Luz’s back, unwilling to give up even an inch of her girlfriend in her sleep, but Luz was grateful for Hunter’s hug.
It allowed her to stifle her sobs, and muffle whatever she couldn’t suppress.
A moment later, when she had finally managed to match her breathing with his deep, calm breaths, she felt him leaning back and Amity pulling her back into their embrace again. A glance over her shoulder reassured her that her girlfriend was still tightly sleeping, and another over Hunter’s shoulder revealed that neither Willow nor Gus had woken up either.
She breathed through, then she watched as Hunter sat back and pulled his blanket around his shoulders, watching her again as she brought Amity’s hand up to her face to softly kiss her palm. The girl spooning her immediately relaxed at that with the most adorable little huff Luz had ever heard.
Blinking slowly, she settled back into the pillow and looked at Hunter who was still watching her as the first few droplets of rain began tapping against her window once more.
Luz breathed through and tried to focus, nodding to herself. She had to tell someone and Hunter would probably understand the best.
“… You-… You’ve seen his… Appearance.”, she tested the waters and Hunter slowly nodded, his own memories flashing across his face. It was obvious he had seen Belos like this more than once, and it was possible he kind of knew what Belos had done to himself, “He was able to do magic without the staff.”
Hunter nodded again and Luz gulped, worrying her lip before continuing.
“When-… When I fought him alone, he outmatched me by far. I didn’t have a chance… So he, uhm, captured me.”, she mumbled and Hunter sat closer, putting his elbow up on the couch beside Luz’s head. She was glad for the close proximity, the quieter she could say it, the less chance any of her friends had to listen in on them, should they pretend to sleep.
“He wanted to make a deal. That I come home with him, to the human realm, because he didn’t want me-… Staying in the demon realm.”
Hunter slightly recoiled at that, his eyes narrowed in suspicion.
“Why? Why did he care about you?”, he asked and Luz felt her heart being squeezed by the hurt look on his face. As much as Belos had betrayed him and as much as Hunter had learned in the past few weeks, she figured it would still hurt for him to hear his uncle, as he had thought his entire life, would care for her, who had just been on the Isles for a few months.
“… I’m human… He didn’t want another human hurt by the Isles… It was about his ideology. He’s-… He didn’t care for me. I guess he was just projecting.”, she explained and Hunter visibly relaxed. She couldn’t blame him.
“And I guess you said no?”, he asked with a deadpan after a while, the rain was by now audibly splattering on the window and getting so loud it even droned out Willow’s and Gus’ breathing.
“… I kind of… Maybe… Insulted him instead.”, Luz grimaced and Hunter had to groan at that. She really had no common sense for any safety.
But as she grew quiet again, listening to the soft pattering of the rain, Hunter leaned in again. Luz turned her head back to the pillow, as if attempting to hide, then she sighed into the fabric. He moved his other hand to rest on her shoulder and encouraged her to speak up about it.
“I-… I got him so mad that he-… He wanted to put me out of my misery instead.”, she gulped as Hunter furrowed his eyebrows at that, his grip on her shoulder tightening, “And-… When-…”
Her voice failing, she felt tears welling up in her eyes again and her feet felt as heavy as they had when Belos had raised his hand and made a fist. It felt exactly like that again, the unforgiving cold and stiffness creeping up her legs again.
Rubbing her feet together, she made herself feel that they were not actually turning to stone again but the dread was still pooling in her stomach.
“… What happened then?”, Hunter asked and Luz sniffled, pulling Amity’s hand up to her face again, keeping her gaze down to avoid his looking at him. Her girlfriend gave another little huff and tightened her hug before she could answer.
“… He petrified me.”
The silence that stretched after she had said it grew louder by the second.
The rain and wind from the outside were suddenly droned out at the deafening absence of words, just the rush of blood in her ears was still there. Slowly, Luz looked up and grimaced at the expression on Hunter’s face.
He looked downright furious.
Breathing through his clenched teeth, he stared at the backrest of the couch, trying to contain his rage as he worked through the first few seconds of understanding the horror Luz had gone through.
Gulping, she looked down again, waiting for his response.
Only now that she had said it, told someone else what had happened, it seemed real. Before that, it had happened between Belos and her, and before he had gone berserk when she had branded him.
Now that it was out there, now that Hunter had heard it and now that she would have to tell her girlfriend, her mom, and her friends, it seemed a lot more real.
Breathing faster, she squeezed Amity’s hand and tried breathing through.
When the stone had crept up her legs, when she had understood that she could die right there, with the portal open next to her, with her mom not knowing what had happened, with Eda and Raine and the rebellion so far away. With her friends on the way, only that she hadn’t known that.
Hot tears welled up in her eyes again and she rubbed her feet together to feel them alive and not made of stone. Finally, her tears spilled. Once again, she buried her face in the pillow, and once again, she felt Hunter leaning in and comforting her.
The realization set in now. The shock faded. The feeling that it was a dream, that it had never happened, was gone. The comfort, maybe delusion, that she had dreamed it all up, was gone.
Suddenly, she knew it was real.
How her joints had started working, how Belos had thrown her across the room, how she had watched her legs turning cold and unmoving, how she had already pictured moss spreading on her statue. How it had moved up her body, her hips, how hard it had been to move then. How her hand on the floor, desperately grasping the branding glove, had turned cold, unmoving. How her own arm had started feeling like a cane or a branch merely supporting her chest, how she hadn’t been able to move away or do anything about it. All the while her brain raced a thousand miles an hour, trying to find the right words to persuade Belos, how she had hated to say his name to his face and the smug smirk that had spread on his lips then.
How the stone had moved up her chest, how she had felt her lungs turning, how breathing had gotten hard. How she had spoken the last words on her last breath before her mouth and nose had turned to stone as well. How suffocating it had felt, that her throat had hardened and finally, her breathing had cut out. She had heard her last breath. How scary that had been, how the tears had soaked the stone that her cheeks had turned.
Gasping, she curled up even tighter, not even realizing how she had started curling, around the void that started filling her middle. How the pain had started spreading from her ribcage, how her heart was being squeezed and how she had started breathing faster, tucking her legs in.
Her knees were up to her throat when Hunter’s voice finally broke through to her. He told her to breathe, to open her eyes, and to look at him, otherwise, he’d wake Amity.
She couldn’t say it again. She couldn’t have Hunter tell her girlfriend.
Forcing herself to breathe in through her nose, Luz tried hard to fill her lungs with air to help with the lightheadedness, but it was harder than she thought.
The feeling of her body hardening, of herself turning to a statue, of the pain she had worked around just to keep talking, bargaining, dealing with Belos. Her begs rang in her ear, louder than she had probably spoken.
The cold, unforgiving, unmoving, hard stone reached her head, locking her jaw, working up to her ear, her eye, her brain just before Belos had stopped it.
Functioning, executing her plan, after almost ending up as a statue. And telling nobody about it.
It all came back now.
How horrifying the past few weeks had been, between the anniversary of her father’s passing and her ending up back in the human realm. How she and Hunter had discovered he was a grimwalker, how she had gone into hiding, how helpless and desperate Eda and Lilith had been to keep her and King safe, how they had discovered everything about King’s true heritage, the Titan Trappers, the Day of Unity starting, her friends, her family, the rebellion-
Suddenly, a female voice talked to her.
The hand she had so tightly clasped in hers had disappeared from her grip and when she was turned over and opened her eyes, she was looking into Amity’s golden ones. Hunter was still there as well, talking fast to her girlfriend while she only curled up tighter, struggling to breathe.
She still didn’t know what had happened to Eda. She still didn’t know what happened to King. How the Isles were. If the collector had left with King or if they had decided to enslave the entire population of the Isles into some sick, twisted game to play with him.
Raine, Darius, Eberwolf, she had heard of none of them. All that she had to go by was that Hunter’s sigil hadn’t killed him. But what of Eda’s curse?
Had it harmed her?
Was King safe?
What about everyone who didn’t have a sigil? Were they okay?
Luz tried to breathe, she really did, but she could only squint her eyes more and try not to let the pain inside her chest eat her up alive.
A hand cupped her cheek and Luz opened her eyes back up, looking up to Amity once again. Once her vision stopped being blurred, she could see how disheveled her girlfriend looked. Hunter had probably woken her up while panicking about her state, and Amity had immediately entered the adrenaline rush over her girlfriend not being okay.
Amity was leaning over her, propping herself up above her, so she could look at Luz properly.
She was saying something, but Luz couldn’t hear her. Her own shallow breathing was too loud, the rushing in her ears, the tumult in her head, the concern and worries and everything was getting too much and she couldn’t focus, damnit-
Until a comfortable weight settled on top of her. And the weight was breathing. She only belatedly realized Amity had climbed atop of her and was showing her hand, slowly counting up to four and down again, doing the same movements with her lips as Willow’s breathing technique required.
With the help of being engulfed completely by her girlfriend and the breathing on top of her that she could feel and didn’t have to hear, she slowly managed to get her oxygen intake back under control.
They breathed together until Luz could feel stuff around her again. Hunter’s hand on top of her head, Amity’s hand in her hair, the blanket still draped around them.
Somewhere in between, Amity’s head had dropped next to hers, snuggling into her neck and continuing to breathe slowly as Luz’s vision stabilized and she could slowly find back to herself.
Amity continued breathing on top of her and Hunter still held up his fingers, counting to four and back so Luz wouldn’t forget to breathe.
When she had calmed down enough to talk, Amity leaned back again, looking down at her skeptically.
“… Did you sleep at all?”, she asked and Luz sheepishly shook her head, looking around as she felt Hunter’s hand leaving her hair to discover he was only fetching a glass of water for her. Amity obviously disapproved, but looked understanding. She probably knew why Luz had trouble sleeping.
After allowing Luz to sit up to accept Hunter’s glass of water, Amity slipped from her lap and she gratefully took the glass of water, taking a sip before her girlfriend nudged her.
At her nod, Luz drank half the glass and looked for her approval.
They settled back down on the couch and Amity draped the blanket back over them both, now having switched places after Hunter bid them goodnight, and looked at her.
Luz felt the comforting pressure of the backrest along her body and had her hands linked with Amity’s, resting between them. She smiled at her girlfriend, but Amity was having none of it.
“Luz, what just happened?”, she whispered, just loud enough for her to hear since they were practically nose to nose, so Amity would still have some room on the couch. Luz squinted her eyes and buried her face in the pillow before Amity reached over and brushed some strands of hair out of her face and behind her ear. She would really have to get a haircut.
“… Some… Stuff happened before you guys arrived in the skull…”, she admitted. Her girlfriend merely nodded, leaning in closer and pressing a soft kiss to her cheek, keeping close and parting their fingers so she could hug her.
“… Hunter told me as much…”, she murmured and Luz was glad she didn’t hear anything from the mattress down below. She also couldn’t hear any sort of resentment from her girlfriend, as scared as she had been of that.
Huffing, she turned her face back up and leaned the bridge of her nose against Amity’s to be as close as possible. Their breaths mingled and thankfully, Luz felt herself growing sleepy at that.
“… I-… I fought Belos and, he wanted a deal…”, she began but Amity merely shook her head, her hand wandering up Luz’s back before weaving into her hair, her fingers playing with her locks.
“… Not tonight.”, she mumbled and Luz gratefully snuggled in some more, finding herself smiling. Amity probably just didn’t want her to have another panic attack. She couldn’t express how thankful she was that she didn’t have to repeat the three words that caused her so much pain and fear.
“Okay.”, she mumbled back, snuggling into her embrace and trying not to think too much about what had happened. She had thought about that enough for today. Hunter knew now and Amity knew she had to tell her something. She would tell them all tomorrow and it would feel much better doing so after she had slept a night over it.
And they were safe. As much as it sucked to be away from the Isles and everyone else and as much as it pained Luz not to know what was happening over there, they were safe. Willow and Gus and Hunter and Amity, her girlfriend, were safe.
Before she even knew what she was doing, she had pressed a soft kiss to the corner of Amity’s lips and snuggled closer, wrapping her arms around her girlfriend. Amity gave a soft eep, before snuggling into her warm embrace and settling down again.
Sleep took her faster than her girlfriend this time. After just a few breaths, she was out cold and had quickly fallen into a deep, dreamless slumber. Here, in the arms of her girlfriend, the world on her shoulders seemed lighter, the light brighter, and the solution closer than she thought.
Just a moment later, Amity followed. The last to fall asleep was Hunter, and as much as he tossed and turned, as soon as Luz's hand dropped over the couch’s edge and Willow’s hand had found its way to his mattress as well, he calmed down.
---
When Camila entered her living room this morning, disheveled and bleary-eyed from a restless night, she found a smile growing on her lips.
She had sent Luz off to camp mainly to make some friends, not because she had wanted her to actually think inside the box. It had been her last resort to allow her daughter some kind of connection with the rest of her age class.
And now, seeing her all cuddled up with her girlfriend, holding hands with the boy she had come here with – Hunter, as she recalled – she felt that maybe, the Boiling Isles hadn’t only kept her daughter away from her.
She tiptoed past the sleeping horde of teenagers and managed to get herself a nice cup of coffee before sneaking back in and leaning over the backrest to watch her sleeping daughter. She had curled in just enough to hide her face in the crook of Amity’s neck, leaving the witch girl to bury her nose in her hair. They looked so serene, so calm and peaceful, despite what they had been through just yesterday.
Luz’s arm was draped over her girlfriend’s waist and hanging off the couch, where Hunter’s fingers were timidly laced into hers, his elbow propped up just enough to keep his arm upright, while he was softly snoring. His other hand was occupied by the girl sleeping next to him, Willow if Camila remembered her name right.
Gus was curled up on Willow’s side and huffing from time to time, his ears flicking. She suspected the youngest of the group would wake up soon.
Looking back down at her daughter, Camila couldn’t resist the smile she felt growing on her lips, or the hand to reach down and brush some of Luz’s hair out of her eyes while taking care not to wake Amity. She also reached over to brush a strand of lilac hair behind her pointy witch ears, though she wasn’t too sure if witches slept lighter than humans. She didn’t want to wake Amity up.
Without meaning to, she mustered the young witch that her daughter was so cuddled up to. She was pretty. Luz really had chosen well, even if she hadn’t believed her daughter at first when she had told her she had a girlfriend that night she saved Vee.
Chuckling to herself, Camila finally took a sip of her coffee that had cooled down a bit by now and walked back to the kitchen to sit down at the counter and have her cup of coffee to herself, without annoying the children too much.
Without her noticing, a sleepy smile spread on Amity’s lips. She hadn’t woken up, but the timid touch alone had been enough to make her feel entirely at home, with her girlfriend snuggled up to her.
---
I hope you enjoyed it!

Hygge-Inspired Bathrooms: Cozy Comfort in 2024
As we stride forward into 2024, our homes continue to serve as our sanctuaries, offering a respite from the chaos of the outside world. The Danish concept of "hygge," with its focus on creating an atmosphere of cosy comfort and well-being, has captured the hearts of many seeking solace and tranquillity in their living spaces. While hygge traditionally finds its place in the warm embrace of living rooms and bedrooms, a new trend is emerging that carries this comforting ambiance into one of the most intimate corners of our homes: the bathrooms Central Coast.
Warm and Neutral Colours
The foundation of a hygge-inspired bathroom lies in its colour palette. Warm and neutral colours reign supreme, inviting a sense of calm and serenity. Imagine soft shades of beige, cream, and light grey enveloping the room, creating an oasis of relaxation and cosiness. These colours not only evoke a sense of warmth but also allow for easy coordination with other design elements.
Natural Materials
Connecting with nature is a cornerstone of hygge design. Infusing your bathroom with natural materials like wood and stone can transform it into a serene retreat. Consider wooden vanities, stone countertops, and bamboo accessories. These elements not only bring nature indoors but also add a tactile dimension to your bathroom's overall aesthetic.
Soft Textiles
Hygge is synonymous with softness and sensory comfort. Introduce plush towels, bath mats, and perhaps even a sumptuous bathrobe to your bathroom. These luxurious textiles create a cocoon of comfort, turning your daily routine into a spa-like experience. Additionally, soft fabrics absorb sound, reducing echoes and making your bathroom a quieter, more peaceful space.
Ambient Lighting
Lighting can make or break a room's atmosphere, and the bathroom is no exception. In a hygge-inspired bathroom, opt for dimmable light fixtures that allow you to control the mood. Candles or fairy lights can be added for an enchanting, warm glow. Soft, indirect lighting not only provides functionality but also nurtures a sense of relaxation, making it perfect for unwinding in the bathtub after a long day.
Plants and Greenery
Incorporating plant life into your bathroom brings life, vitality, and purity to the space. Potted plants or small succulents can thrive in the bathroom's humid environment while purifying the air. These green companions not only infuse colour and tranquillity but also foster a connection to nature, a central tenet of hygge design.
Minimalistic Design
Less is often more in a hygge-inspired bathroom. Embrace minimalism by decluttering your bathroom and only keeping the essentials on display. Clear countertops and neatly organised storage solutions create a sense of serenity and order. This minimalist approach ensures that your bathroom remains an oasis of tranquillity.
High-Quality Accessories
Elevate your bathroom's aesthetics and functionality by investing in high-quality accessories. Elegant soap dispensers, sleek faucet fixtures, and thoughtfully designed storage solutions not only enhance the visual appeal of your bathroom but also enhance your daily rituals with a touch of luxury. These details elevate the overall comfort and style of your space.
Personal Touches
Hygge is about personalisation and creating a sense of belonging. Decorate your bathroom with personal touches such as framed photos, artwork, or decorative items that hold sentimental value. These items infuse your bathroom with character and warmth, making it uniquely yours and adding to the overall cosiness.
In 2024, the hygge-inspired bathroom trend encourages us to create a space where we can find solace, comfort, and rejuvenation. By incorporating warm and neutral colours, natural materials, soft textiles, ambient lighting, and other key elements of hygge design, you can transform your bathroom into a cosy sanctuary. Take the time to personalise your space with meaningful touches, and you'll have a bathroom that not only looks beautiful but also provides a sense of warmth and relaxation, ensuring that your daily routine becomes a cherished self-care ritual.
Embrace the hygge-inspired bathroom trend, and make 2024 the year you create a haven of cosy comfort in your own home. Your bathroom will become the ultimate sanctuary, providing refuge from the demands of the outside world and promoting well-being and serenity in your daily life.

Erosion Control Solutions
Erosion control solutions are a vital part of any construction project. They protect buildings and structures from damage caused by wind or water erosion, reduce environmental impacts and maintain soil quality on construction sites.
They also support sustainability, a growing trend in residential and commercial construction. Effective erosion control measures promote earth stewardship and ensure compliance with regulations, saving time and money for construction companies.
Structural
Erosion is a natural process that can have devastating effects for construction sites, including mudslides and flooding. However, erosion control solutions can be used to stabilize sites that would otherwise be at risk of such damage. These structural solutions range from retaining walls to gabions, concrete shoreline protection, and more. They can also be combined with soft-armor engineering systems, such as coir logs and vegetation, to ensure the best results at particularly challenging sites.
These innovative techniques can help prevent erosion, reduce the need for costly site repairs, and protect waterways from sediment runoff. Moreover, they can help promote sustainability and compliance with environmental regulations. Incorporating erosion control measures into the construction process at the outset can help minimize environmental impacts while providing significant cost savings for contractors.
Some examples of erosion control solutions that are both effective and affordable include silt fences, jute blankets, grassed swales, and hydroseeding. These methods work by promoting vegetation growth and slowing down runoff, thus preventing soil erosion.
Using geotextiles is another effective technique to mitigate erosion. These are fabrics with a warp-knitted design that can be made of either natural or synthetic materials. These are then placed on slopes to reduce erosion. For example, a jute or coconut fiber woven mat can be placed on a slope to stabilize the surface while plants grow.
Vegetative
Erosion that washes soil away is costly, depletes nutrients, alters the landscape and pollutes water supplies. Effective vegetation control solutions are often the most cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to restore damaged sites.
Grass, groundcovers and shrubs are natural erosion control solutions because they have wide-ranging roots that keep soil in place. They also help prevent runoff and sediment from washing into lakes, rivers and streams.
In addition to promoting plant growth, vegetative solutions such as groundcovers, grasses, and shrubs provide habitat enhancements and are aesthetically pleasing. They also work well alongside structural erosion control techniques such as rip rap, soil erosion blankets and coir fiber biologs.
Rolled erosion and sediment control blankets and mats are made of a netting or fabric that secures soil in place, preventing runoff. They also absorb water, creating an environment that encourages seed germination and vegetative growth. They are also resistant to floods, rain or wind and won’t be swept away like other erosion controls.
Stiff-stemmed vegetative barriers are narrow strips of perennial, stiff-leafed plants planted along or close to the contour to stabilize slopes. They reduce erosion by reducing the velocity of runoff water, causing upslope deposition of sediment and lessening scouring on steep slopes. They also prevent ephemeral gully formation and facilitate benching of sloping cropland.
Hydraulic
For centuries people harnessed the power of liquids in motion and under pressure for practical uses. French scientist-philosopher Blaise Pascal and Swiss physicist Daniel Bernoulli developed the laws on which modern hydraulic power technology is based.
The basic principle involves an incompressible fluid like oil connecting two cylinders. When a force is applied to one cylinder, it exerts an equal and opposite force on the other cylinder because of the law of conservation of linear momentum. This results in a force multiplier effect, allowing machines to lift huge loads with relatively small amounts of effort.
Hydraulics are a vital component of many pieces of machinery, from cranes and construction equipment to forklifts and car engines. They can lift and lower huge loads, move heavy equipment with ease, operate elevators and even control wing flaps on airplanes.
The lubrication and cooling functions of hydraulic systems are also important, keeping mechanical parts from wearing out and reducing friction between them. Hydraulic oils can also help prevent overheating by dissipating heat. They can also serve as sealants and eliminators of foreign particles. Some hydraulic oils are biodegradable and environmentally safe. They can also resist oxidation, maintain filtration efficiency and provide corrosion resistance. They can also separate water from the system or demulsify it, which protects equipment from damage. These qualities allow the hydraulic system to perform reliably in harsh conditions and environments.
Chemical
Erosion is a natural phenomenon that happens due to wind, rain, gravity and other elements. But when it’s accelerated by human activity, it leads to environmental and economic disasters like loss of fertile topsoil, clogged ditches, culverts and storm sewers which increase flooding, turbid waterways, filled-in ponds, lakes and channels, damaged habitats and structural damage to buildings, roads and other infrastructure.
One of the best ways to prevent erosion is by planting vegetation on slopes and other areas that are prone to soil degradation. But for a more permanent solution, chemical solutions are the way to go. Soil stabilizers and tackifiers help to counteract the erosive effects of rainfall, snow melt and wind on bare soil. They are effective on a wide range of slope, temperature and weather conditions.
Other products include woven fiber mats, riprap and synthetic turf. Oftentimes, these products are required by federal or local regulations for specific projects. For example, Midwest Industrial Supply’s Soil-Sement prevents fugitive dust and is used on coal, mineral, ore, limestone and clay storage piles; mine tailings, ash ponds and landfills; as well as radioactive and asbestos-contaminated waste sites.
In addition to preventing erosion, these materials are also eco-friendly and more cost-effective than traditional concrete, block or gabion retaining walls. Contact us today to learn more about the products and services we offer.

Unlocking the Secrets of Towels and Shammies for Dog Drying
When it comes to keeping our furry companions happy and healthy, every pet owner knows that a bath is an essential part of the routine. However, the real challenge often lies in efficiently drying our dogs, which is where the use of towels and shammies comes into play. In this article, we'll explore the world of dog drying and uncover the best practices for using these essential tools to ensure your canine friend's comfort.
The Basics of Dog Drying
Dog drying is a crucial step in the grooming process. It not only keeps your pet warm and comfortable but also prevents skin issues that may arise from excess moisture. Towels and shammies are your trusty allies in this endeavor, offering absorbent solutions to make the drying process a breeze.
Choosing the Right Towel
Selecting the appropriate towel for your dog's needs is essential. Opt for highly absorbent towels made of materials like microfiber or chenille. These materials are not only soft on your dog's skin but also quick at soaking up moisture, saving you time and effort.
Embracing the Shammy
Shammies, often referred to as chamois towels, take dog drying to the next level. They are super-absorbent and provide a gentle touch on your dog's coat. Shammies are especially great for long-haired breeds, as they help prevent tangles and matting.
The Drying Process
Now that you have the right tools in hand, it's time to delve into the actual drying process.
Pat, Don't Rub: After your dog's bath, gently pat their coat with the towel or shammy. Avoid vigorous rubbing, as it can cause friction and potentially harm the fur.
Focus on Trouble Spots: Pay extra attention to areas that retain more moisture, such as the paws, underbelly, and ears. Make sure these areas are thoroughly dried to prevent skin issues.
Use Different Towels for the Face: It's a good practice to have a separate, smaller towel or shammy for your dog's face. This ensures you're not transferring dirt or debris from other body parts to their sensitive facial area.
Keep It Warm: If it's a cold day, consider using a heated towel or shammy for added comfort. Your dog will appreciate the warmth.
Brushing After Drying: Once your dog is mostly dry, a gentle brushing will not only help remove any remaining moisture but also keep their coat looking its best.
Transition Words for Smooth Reading
To ensure the smooth flow of information in this article, we've incorporated transition words, such as "however," "especially," "now that," "after," and "once." These words create a logical sequence and enhance the readability of the content.
In conclusion, towels and shammies dog drying are invaluable tools in the dog grooming process, particularly when it comes to drying. By choosing the right materials and following the proper techniques, you can keep your beloved pet comfortable and healthy while maintaining their beautiful coat. So, the next time you give your dog a bath, remember to embrace the power of towels and shammies for an efficient drying experience.

The Complete Guide to Organizing Your Baby Nursery
The nursery is an evolving space as your child grows up very fast. As exciting as it can get to welcome a baby into the house, it’s equally exhausting to keep up with the baby’s demands, the things and the space in which the baby grows up. It’s a common scene to have a messy nursery while taking care of your baby. However, some simple and effective tips can help you save up a lot of time and get the messy nursery clean and organized. The key lies in understanding how to use the nursery space and also decentralize necessary items while placing them around the house so that you don’t have to keep running around to get a sipper or a diaper.
Let’s take a look at the guide to the ways of being an efficient nursery organizer and creating a tidy place for your baby:
1. Create Zones in the Nursery
It’s important to create a layout for the nursery separating different zones for different activities. A crib is an important place where the baby will spend most of the time during infanthood. Make sure the crib meets safety standards and the mattress which is firm and topped with light bedding. Keep the crib away from windows or other items that the child can reach out to and get hurt. This should be a secure zone for the baby. Apart from this, invest in nursery closet organization, set up a diapering station, nursing nook, play area and organized storage with shelves or a cabinet for storing toys, clothes, books and extra items.
2. Organize the Nursery Dresser and Closet
A baby needs frequent changing of clothes as they get soiled easily. A nursery dresser can easily get messy for this reason and to start organizing it begins with decluttering. Once decluttered, sort the baby clothes. See what the baby has outgrown and what could be saved for a future sibling, maybe? Use storage baskets, divider shelves and organizers to arrange the dresser or closet space for different items. In case the nursery doesn’t have an in-built closet, you can find alternative solutions for nursery closet organization by using items like clothing rods, a nursery organizer, clothes rack, clothes pins and clothes dividers. You can also use the space below the crib to store extra diapers and other supplies, i.e., things you probably don’t require within reach immediately.
3. Setting up a Nursing Nook
A nursery organizer also involves setting up a comfortable nook for nursing the baby. Make sure this place is comfortable and cozy enabling quality time and bonding with the baby. A storage ottoman is a great option instead of getting an individual sofa, a nursing pillow, a foot rest and a side table. Use a basket to store blankets, wipes and swaddled.
4. Setting up a Diaper Changing Station
Keeping a separate diaper changing station gives it a space for the activity itself and clears up other occupied spaces. Use baskets, bins, carts and organizers for the diaper changing station as you would for the nursery closet organization. A rolling utility cart is an excellent nursery organizer that can be used as a part of the station to keep diapers, wipes, baby powder, towels, clean sheets and everything you need within reach. If you live in a multi-storied house make sure to have a diapering station on each floor to prevent rush.
5. Set up a Play Area
As the baby moves out of the crib, separate space will be needed for the baby to crawl around. Use a soft retractable playing mat on the floor to give enough space for the baby. Nursery closet organization is very important. Organize toys and books on wall shelves and cubicles. Use a nursery organizer basket for storing their favorite plushies and teething toys. It is wise to maintain hygiene as babies have the habit of putting everything in their mouths. Use sanitized glass jar bottles for storing pacifiers and teethers when they are not being used.
6. Make a Place for Trash and Laundry
A trash bin is a must for the nursery. Use a mini laundry basket so that dirty clothes don’t pile up around the nursery room. The trash bin and the laundry basket can be placed beside the diapering station so that all dirty stuff goes in one place in the room.
A clean and organized nursery isn’t a faraway dream if you can get all the right accessories and organizers that can steer clear of the mess in a nursery. More than one kind of nursery organizer and a collection of baby storage supplies are available at Homesmiths to explore. If you’re expecting a baby and are all set to do some prenatal retail therapy for your little one, visit the Homesmiths website for the exclusive range of nursery closet organization and baby products from the best global brands.
