#No Owlet Home AU
Text
Trouble at the market
Breaking out of Hooty's owl pellet was bad enough. She had to pick leaves out of her hair. Not to mention, bits and bones of whatever the tube demon last ate. Now came the crowds of fans of "Luz, the human ''.
Witches of the (unofficial) "bad girls coven" raced upon seeing one of their idols. Witches, young and old, swarmed around her. While others were snatching Penstagram selfies, uneasy fans wanted to know what caused the Isles to tremble just a short while ago. This might be a taste of fame. But it was still the pressure of everyone counting on a high schooler. Not exactly something Luz counted on when she helped save her friends. The witch apprentice turned hero, Luzura. Her identity as "the dummy in the principal's office" was crushing. But this was a new kind of pressure.
She tried to calm down the flock of worried admirers. But they kept asking about the "rainbow geyser" that rained down on the titan. From its head to its toes, liquid metal-like substances crashed down onto the ground.
Unable to answer all their questions, Luz nervously agreed to let everyone know when she learns more. One thing she learned to always keep on her, a bottle of fog brew. After her first day of Hexside, she wanted to ace her first potion. Now, the results spoke for themselves. Using the smokescreen and an invisibility glyph, she snuck away.
Young witch: "So cool. Like that other human hero. What was it? Man-bat?"
Luz(under her breath): "It's actually Bat..."
The slight exhale caused her glyph to wear off. Before she could use another one, she spotted a Glandus student sprinting in her direction.
Luz: "No,no,no, wait, I don't..."
They sped past her, completely ignoring the confused human. And then another, and another, and another. Panic could be heard getting closer, as the sounds of battle grew bigger as well. The ground shook as she saw witches retreating. The former emperor's coven guards fell under the banner of the "C.A.T.S". Those accepted were under the leadership of the original rebels against Belos. Raine Whispers, Daruis, Eberwolf, Lilith and Eda Clawthrone. Only those personally approved by one of them were made into peacekeepers.
C.A.T. guards fired spell after spell as they fell back. Dust and debris approached ominously toward Noceda's direction. She wasted no time running towards them, in hopes of being able to help.
From the dust cloud, two C.A.T. guards were launched through the air. Noceda used a glyph to catch them in greenery and created an ice wall with another. She readied herself and thundering footsteps approached. The sound of metal bending greeted her before the sight of a 30 foot blue humanoid newt emerged. In one arm, he held what looked like a sci-fi energy sword. A large abomination attempted to focus its attacks on his head. The witches responsible for the goo champion became over confident. One of them spotted Luz and became careless.
C.A.T. guard: "It's the human!"
At that moment, the large newt swung its tail. A chunk of rubble was sent crashing into the origin of that call. Their partner ran to their aid. With eyes irritated from the blows, he could just make out a familiar sight. A fuzzy silhouette of hair with leaves and sticks. The huge armored creature closed in on his human target.
King Andrias: "A human, huh?"
Luz: "Um, hi. You're a big boy, aren't ya?"
King Andrias: "What have you done with the box?"
Luz: "The box? I don't know what you're talking about. What box?"
King Andrias: "The power of Amphibia's greatest treasure. My battle on Earth just moments ago. Now, I'm here amongst these creatures. Of course, you sent me here. Always a little thief misusing its power."
Luz: "Listen, um, sir? I don't know anything about a box, but if you just..."
Wait, he knows about earth. He said, he was just there? What's going on in the human world? Did what happen back at the pool site reach there, too?
King Andrias: "You want to play games? Catch!"
Using his sword to bring down a wall, he swung his tail like a bat. Debris went flying towards Noceda's direction. She quickly slammed an ice glyph on the ground. But the frozen wall it created only held against the stone projectiles. Her attacker charged at her almost immediately. Swinging his sword through, he completely closed the distance between them. Despite towering over her, she could see the reds of his eyes. Even with his vision impaired, he was still a threat.
King Andrias: "You've got ice powers now?"
He caught her in his massive hand in an attempt to crush her. But she activated a fire glyph she planted on him, just under his fist. Right when he loosened his grip, she escaped and used a plant glyph to swing from his arm, up to his face. He spotted her aim and headbutted her before she could use another attack. She came down on the ground, hard.
He quickly tried to stomp on her. But she rolled out of the way.
King Andrais: "You think sending me away was going to save Earth?"
He swung his sword without giving her any reprieve. One of the blows cracked the street, causing Luz to lose her footing.
King Andrais: "I'm going to enjoy crushing everyone you care about when I'm done here."
At that moment, several spikes of ice went right for her opponent,
Luz(angrily): "What did you just say?!"
She coated a rod, lying on the ground, in ice. It almost looked like a shimmering sword.
King Andrias: "Touche."
She used a combo of fire and ice to create a fog. Using the cracks in the street, she used a plant glyph to attack from below. He evaded, but took his already poor eyesight off her. She used the distraction to slip away, using an invisibility glyph. Sneaking up on him, she surprised him with a large flash of light. With what felt like looking directly at the sun, he covered his eyes. His reaction from the pain made the opening Luz wanted. Using an ice platform, she launched herself up to his collar. With her makeshift weapon, she lodged it into his armor. Using vines, she knocked the sword out of his hand. She had to use one arm to hold on. But she appeared to immobilize one of his arms with a plant glyph. They managed to drag his arm closer to the ground. Unfortunately, she forgot about his tail. He knocked her off his back and snatched her out of the air with his spare arm.
King Andrias: "So many new powers. You’ve outdone yourself, chosen hero. I underestimated you. But now you die.”
Just as he raised his fist to smash her into the ground, sunlight allowed him to get a better look at his captive.
Bringing her closer to his face, he studied her features.
King Andrias: “You’re not Anne Boonchuy.”
Not wasting this opportunity, she remotely activated one of her last two glyphs. Using a vine to reach the rod under his collar, she set off a series of ice glyphs coated around vegetation that shackled his arm.
King Andrais: “What’s happening?”
He flung her in the direction of the floor. Fortunately, her last glyph allowing her to stop in mid air and land safely on the street.
The barrage of glyphs managed to reach underneath his armor. Finally, immobilizing him completely and ending the battle.
Author's note:
I was worried about how much I could fit here.

So I was rereading your Owl Song series for the like. 5th time and when I saw this line, “"NO!“ It almost shouts, taking the owlet by his shoulders to stare intently into his eyes, “Nev-er. Jason is you. Ne-ver talon. Never."" I was hit by an idea.
Can u imagine an au where instead of Jason coming back to life by Superboy Primes punch it's by the Court? Batman didn't get all of them and they've been rebuilding, they had been looking to get Dick back and hey! What better way than turning Jason into a Talon as well.
Oooo yes! I think this has been brought up before!
@cyrwrites also did an awesome drabble about Dick thinking Red Hood is a talon (but before finding out that Hood is Jason), so definitely give that a read! I totally come back to it every other day because it’s that good.
But if we go down the route of Jason becoming a genuine talon? Oh boy, ooooooooh boy. So there’s possibility 1, where Jason keeps his memories and fights the court every step of the way until he manages to escape. Or 2, Jason forgets everything and the court turns him into their weapon.
Maybe option 2 would be more likely, with Jason and Dick clashing on accident and Dick managing to subdue Jay and then teaching HIM how to be human again and the two of them just chirping and hooting at each other—- BUT, honestly I think option 1 would be much more interesting.
Jason wakes up and he remembers. And everything still hurts and the people surrounding him are sticking needles in him and his vision shifts until the colors bleed away and back in wrong and he’s both cold and hot at the same time and he wants to call for Bruce, for Alfred, for Dick, but his screams are slowly morphing into bird like shrieks and oh, oh, Jason— Jason knows what’s happening. Knows for sure when he manages to free one arm and sees the veins on his skin shot through with black, necrotic electrum.
But Jason’s smart. He’s smart, and he endures, and if this is the Court then at least he’s still in Gotham. So Jason plays along. He’s good. He remembers how Dick used to act at the very beginning and Jason’s always been good at acting, and gods he’s going to get out of here and go home but first he’s got to sell this act and sell it good.
And it works. It works. The Court is ecstatic about his “fast progress” and before long he’s sent out on his first solo mission (with a couple of ‘babysitters’) but Jason grew up in the Alley, and he was Robin, escape artist is practically in the job description, and all hopped up on electrum? Yeah, it’s easy to ditch his babysitters (Maybe slit their throats if we wanna go bloody) and book it for Batman’s closest patrol route.
But for whoever’s patrolling that night? There’s suddenly a strange talon dropping down in front of them, cooing and trilling and struggling to form words but— but it doesn’t matter. The talon is clearly asking for help, is still clearly a child, and no Bat would ever turn down a child in need.
(Dick breaks down completely when they pull the hood off Jason’s head and his little owlet stares back at him with eyes that should be blue but are now a glowing gold.)

The little chaser
synopsis: your son likes chasing and catching crystal flies now, and giving their cores as gifts brings him joy.
pairing and characters: Diluc x fem!reader, your twin sons
tw: pure fluff, domestic moment
word count: 2k+ words
author’s note: just a small something my brain came up with when I was thinking of Rufus loving bringing different trinkets from his outings to his parents, whenever one of them or both stay home.
Family AU masterlist
"Ma, ma! Do you think dad will like it?" Rufus appears next to you almost as if out of thin air and extends an open palm to show you a crystal fly core. "I caught a big one!"
"Oh, firefly,” you smile and brush your fingers through the thick mane of crimson hair, which somehow always manages to look decent, “I am sure he'll love it."
“Yeah??” Red eyes widen and stare at you in a hardly contained excitement, to which you hum in confirmation, giving him a firm nod. Giggling, your son plops on the grass near you and, holding the gleaming piece tightly to his chest, falls head first on your thigh, disturbing his twin, who's been peacefully napping on your other hip.
The little boy lifts his head and starts owlishly blinking, which, paired with his hair messily hanging from a ponytail, creates such a cute image that you can't help but laugh softly. How can you not, when your baby looks like a little owlet with ruffled feathers? His father looks the same almost every morning and the fond reminder makes your heart swell with adoration.
"Wha- wha's happenin'?" He reaches to rub on his eyes, ridding of the remnants of his nap. Your fingers gently tug on his shirt, that rearranged itself on his shoulders, smoothing the fabric and running knuckles against his rosy cheek.
"Nothing, Lu, I just caught a crystal fly, look!" Your older son reaches a hand back over your legs to show his brother a sparkling thing clasped tightly between his small fingers. Lucas finally blinks the sleep away and now stares at the core mesmerized. Rubies of his orbs twinkle with awe and mouth falls agape.
"Woooooow…so pretty! Did you really catch it!?"
"Yes, I did! Wanna one?"
"Yes, yes, I do!"
You watch your sons roll off of you and then some more on the ground and think of poor maids who are going to wash the grass stains from their white shirts later. Their little masters could care less though at the moment, getting back on their feet and, at least, dusting their shorts.
"Mama," Rufus turns to you with a serious expression and then reaches to hand the crystal core over, "please keep it while I get one for Lu. Oh! Do you want one?"
"Maybe another time," you smile, accepting the little treasure that'll soon adorn your husband's desk. "We are going back soon, so don't take too long, alright?" Just as the words leave your mouth two sets of identical eyes turn from gleaming with joy to sad.
"Alreaaaady?" They whine almost in one voice and you have a hard time resisting these cute pleading faces, with puffed up cheeks and puppy eyes. If it was Diluc here, he’d probably have a much harder time resisting his little balls of mischief. But mama owl in you knows better.
"We've been out the whole day. I bet papa misses you two already. Plus it's going to get dark soon, we better be on our way before sunset."
"Alright…" begrudgingly they eventually sigh in defeat and then, realizing they have little time, disappear almost as if whisked by the wind.
To think of it, the wind has been almost non-existent today. Thanks Barbatos, it hasn't been too sunny and heat hasn't really bothered any of you. But then again the summer days go by and autumn approaches, which means the evenings get chiller, so you hope the boys do hurry up with the elemental creature. It'd be great to get home without as much as even starting shivering.
Soon Lucas indeed returns back to your side and climbs into your lap with back facing you.
"Ma, hair almost got caught in a bush…" he quietly complains and you nearly give yourself a facepalm - letting your boy go running around with messy hair, how smart of you.
"Don't worry, baby, I'll fix it," the ribbon comes undone and the twin grips it in his tiny fingers - he knows you need both hands to deal with his hair. A brush appears in your grasp - with how active your sons are, having it with you is a must, - and start working on the nest, turning the bird's home into a flowing river of fire. Lucas doesn't even fidget, only humming something under his nose and looking ahead, to where his brother is slowly approaching three anemo crystal flies, floating in the air almost lazely. The height is perfect for Rufus to grab and there is only a couple of feet separating the little hunter and his prey. The redhead has such a concentrated look on his face, that he looks almost adult-serious, each step and movement is coordinated and measured - he has an important mission after all.
You lift your gaze when Lucas claps his hands with a giggle, watching a single crystal fly speeding away, desperate to save its life. His older brother lifts both hands in the air, grinning victoriously.
"Mom, I caught two!" With the triumphant cry the boy sprints to you, eager to present his trophies. Lucas holds his palms together when Rufus bends to drop one gleaming core to him. Absolutely stunned, he is now twirling the little treasure, watching how light is playing on its edges, completely forgetting about everything surrounding him. Meanwhile your oldest turns to you and offers you the second one, equally beautiful and shiny. With a wide smile he watches you put the brush aside and take the gift. A gleeful squeal then erupts from his mouth when you hug him and press to your side, kissing under his chin.
"Thank you, Ru," butterfly kisses against his skin are like caresses of the crystal fly wings, and the boy keeps giggling and squirming in your hold from the ticklish sensation, kicking his feet and holding onto your arm.
"You, hehe, like it? Ahaha, stooooop!"
"Of course I do. Maybe I'll make a necklace later," you stop your loving attack and hum in thought and the idea seems to catch Lucas' attention. Suddenly he turns around and extends his hands with the core and his ribbon.
"Make me one, please!"
"Oh, why not," you quickly agree, letting Rufus go, only for him to drop onto his knees to catch his breath and collect himself, "But I want you two to gather things back into the basket while I am doing so. And put my and dad's cores there too."
Boys nod and, after Lucas scrambles back to his feet and his twin follows him a couple of seconds later, begin cleaning up. You effortlessly loop the ribbon around the "horns", tying a knot just in case and then one on the ends, making a simple trinket.
Your youngest looks purely happy with it hanging around his neck as the three of you are making your way back to the Winery. Rufus is absolutely pleased with himself for making his brother this elated and is telling you all about his hunting techniques, promising to teach his twin everything next time. Lucas eagerly nods, staring at his brother like he is a hero from the books the boy loves Adelinde or his parents reading him.
The fond look doesn’t leave your eyes, as you watch your babies interact. So similar, yet so different, but most importantly being each other's best friends. Somehow you are convinced that these boys will forever be getting along and adore each other, no matter how many stories exist of siblings getting in serious fights. You only hope they’ll stay these little happy balls of vermillion joy for as long as it is possible, playing, learning, exploring the world through the childish fantasies of theirs.
This sentiment you share with their father, whose eyes lit up affectionately and proudly whenever he watches Rufus and Lucas doing whatever. Just like now, as you spot him outside, not taking his eyes off of his sons, who started chasing each other among the rows of the wineyard, laughing and squealing, drawing the attention of the workers that remained to finish some work.
Diluc, with a shawl wrapped around his shoulders, is standing in the main doorway of the winery, shoulder pressed to the doorframe and arms crossed on his chest. Probably having noticed you three out of the window he came down to be the first one to greet his family back.
The boys don’t notice him just yet, running around Tunner, making the old man helplessly smile and joke that they’re going to make him dizzy. You use this opportunity to approach your husband, putting the basket to one of the benches nearby, and stepping into his embrace right after.
“Hello, my flame,” his voice is hushed and a little bit hoarse, red strands tickle your cheek as his chin comfortably rests on top of your head.
"Hi, love," you softly murmur against his collarbone, snuggling to him with arms wrapped around his waist. "You good?"
"Mhm," the hum vibrates in his throat, arms squeezing you a little bit tighter. "You?"
"Couldn't be better. Are you cold?"
"...yes, a bit. It'll pass soon."
Being an owner of the Pyro vision your husband's body was far warmer than a normal person's should be. But that's only if he has his vision with him, and you don't notice it on his hip this time, meaning he left it somewhere within the house with his body heat returning to an adequate degree. When it happens it always makes him a bit receptive to the chill around if there is one, fortunately, it's just for a few moments.
"Well... It always can be helped by the snuggle session with me and our boys," you suggest and feel Diluc nod against the top of your head.
Turning in his embrace you search for two red heads and quickly spot them on the other end of the wineyard, observing a crystal fly, whose wings barely touch the green leaves of the grapes. You know what is going on inside their heads, but you'll have to ruin their fun. Sorry, boys, but that's enough hunting for today.
"Sounds good to me. By the way, I let the maids go earlier today. Tomorrow is going to be very busy," oh, your man is too kind and caring, and that's one of the reasons you love him dearly.
"This is perfectly fine, love. I'll cook dinner today, not a problem at all."
"Ru! Lu! Come home, babies!" Raising their heads the twins lock eyes with you and Diluc. Then they glance back at the elemental being and even from the distance you can see them sighing in disappointment before trotting to you.
"We could catch it!" Rufus complains, attaching himself to dad's leg almost immediately, hugging him in greeting.
“They became obsessed with these,” your words bring a small, but indescribably warm smile on Diluc’s face, who didn't miss the scene. No doubt he thought about the times he and Kaeya used to do the same, chasing crystal flies and bringing collected cores to Master Crepus so he could turn them into something beautiful.
“But they are pretty…” Lucas sighs, fidgeting with one around his neck. “Right, dad?” He even lifts it a little to show his father, which reminds Rufus of his present. He starts searching for the basket until you point to the bench and he runs to get it.
“Right, Lu,” Diluc nods, keeping one arm wrapped around your shoulders and bringing the other to run fingers through his son’s hair. “It’s so unusual to see him with hair down,” he quietly admits and you chuckle, understanding what he means.
“Bet Tunner couldn’t even guess who is who today.”
“Undoubtedly.”
"Pa!” Rufus finally returns, holding a core with both of his hands. “That's for you! I caught it myself."
“You did, didn’t you?" The softness in his gaze and the easily perceptible adoration in his voice makes you weak in the knees, but you manage to stay put. "Tell me all about it.”
A swift movement and the twins are resting in their dad’s arms, who steps back into the winery, having decided that’s enough of standing outside. Quickly grabbing the basket you follow them inside, glancing at the third core resting among all the items you brought to the stroll.
You make a mental note to find a small chest for the twins to store these, because, if Diluc’s stories of his childhood are something to take into consideration, there are going to be dozens of cores in the near future. Well, it can’t be helped if the game is to their liking. Most importantly your crystal flies chasers have their fun.

Wrong Target
Requested by: ❤️ @oyasumimosura ❤️
May I please request some Stolas x wife! Reader? An Au where Stolas got into a healthy relationship with someone who loves him for who he is. Perhaps the reader rescued Stolas when they were little since she’s more athletic and catches him before he could hit the ground, they both didn’t know that they will soon be married. While (y/n)’s sister which is Stella doesn’t like Stolas that much and even abuses him whenever she’s away. That one time when they were adults when she caught Stella about to slap Stolas she was very angry with Stella that she banned her from coming into her home. In the end, Stella did hire Striker who ended up killing (y/n) while she was protecting Octavia. Like I need some angst where Stolas came home and looked so happy but to find the house was messy. He finds Octavia crying and beside her was (y/n)’s lifeless body.
One-Shots and Headcanons Masterlist
“Oh dear, you should have seen him. Stolas of the Ars Goetia, the Great Prince of Hell, stuck in a tree not knowing how to get down. He was gripping it as if it was his life line. I thought at the time that he was the biggest drama queen I have ever seen, and look at him now, I was so right!”
Octavia heartily laughed with me as I draped the covers over her and with a quick kiss on the forehead, I bid her sweet dreams. I joined Stolas at the balcony with a blanket and tea to relax.
“So my dear, what were you telling our little owlet that made your laughter carry all the way here?”
We snuggled under the blanket, enjoying the peacefulness of each other's company. Being a parent was harder than you could have imagined, but the best thing that ever happened in your life. Your side of the family was not ideal, with an overly dramatic and cold older brother and an aggressive and jealous twin sister.
“I was just telling our little princess how we first met, love.”
I caressed my husband's cheek, closely inspecting it and finding a red handprint on it.
“Dear Lucifer, whatever happened to you?”
“Nothing my Calytrix, you needn't worry about me.”
His eyes avoided mine and from the tone of his voice, I could tell he was not sincere with me. Yet pushing him would make him even more uncomfortable, which you didn’t want. With worry still evident in your eyes, you rested your head on his shoulder, slowly falling into dream land.
“Enough!”
You shouted, catching Stella’s hand as it was about to connect with the already reddened cheek of your husband. You always knew your sister was a confrontational person, but to resort to violence, much less trying to hurt her own brother-in-law was outrageous. You certainly didn’t expect to see the two fighting when you returned from your play-date with Octavia and Charlie.
“I will not tolerate violence in this household! Leave, and never come back!”
I sent Stella a deadly glare as she smashed the door behind her strongly enough it almost came out of its hinges. Oh, how blind you were. Suddenly all those marks and occasional bruises Stolas sported made so much sense.
“Come love, I need to tend to your wounds.”
Gently grabbing his hand, I led Stolas to our bedroom. As I wept, begging for forgiveness for being so naïve and blind to the situation, we spent the rest of the day in each other's embrace.
“I don’t care who you have to go thru, make it happen!”
Stella shouted at the phone. Her sister dared to go against her, which was a grave mistake. She would not have her killed, no. She would have her suffer seeing the deaths of all those she held close, starting with her husband and her own child. A fate worse than death.
“Understood.”
“Starfire, Starflower, wherever are you hiding?”
Stolas exclaimed, walking into his home. In order to have a relaxing afternoon with his family after what happened, he personaly went and booked the Loo Loo Land for a whole day only for his two darlings. They could enjoy the rides without having to wait in lines, win prizes, watch a private clown show and eat as many sweets as they would like.
“Love?”
He continued walking towards Octavia’s room, hearing slight noises emerging from within. As he carefully opened the door, his heart stopped. His little princess was crying hunched over a body. Your body.
“(Y/N)!”
Your cold corpse sprawled on the floor, a massive wound right through the heart, blood everywhere. This is wrong. This can’t be. This is not REAL! Stolas fell on his knees next to his daughter, screaming with all his power.
“(Y/N)…"
He took Octavia into his arms, taking her out of the room.
“I failed to kill the right target. It won’t happen again.”
A pale imp reported to his employer without a care in the world.
“It better not...”

An idea: (Fem) Yuu clawthorn the snow owl witch [Age 19 in this au] youngest sister of eda🧡and lilith💙, Loves both her older sisters, just eda she loves apple blood 🍏🩸, her palismen is a snowy owl named crystal, she is extremely talented at potions, healing, plant, oracle, illusions, beast keeping tracks and glyph magic and good at speaking spanish and other languages from the human realm, speaking of which she always loves to travel with luz and the gang on traveling to different countries and exploring different cultures, her hobbies and other talents are creating synth groove/golden hip hop/techno/K-POP ost music, roller skate dancing,(normal dancing),playing video games 🎮,swimming, cooking and baking, she is a combination of both her sisters a nerd and rebel with a heart of gold for those in need and loves to spend time and take care of kids ( because she wishes to find her special significant other either a witch,demon OR maybe even human to settle down with and raise a family )
Quick summary: yuu had just turned 19 and graduated hexside with honors sometime later she too has shared the owl beast curse but to everyone’s shock she still has magic and has a harpy form after that she still lives with her parents but does her fair share of housework and has more freedom to travel and explore other new kinds of countries of the human realm with Luz and the others for the summer until one night her father came home with a unique mirror that he and hunter found in emperor belos ruined castle
Gwendolyn(mother): welcome home darling and welcome to you too hunter dear oh my what lovely mirror you’ve brought
Dell(father): before the defeat of belos he confiscated belongings from all wild witches
Hunter: now that he’s gone it was a good opportunity for them to get back what was taken from them
Dell(father): but several days later this mirror hasn’t been claimed by anyone
Gwendolyn(mother): and decided to bring it home it’s perfect for our living room what do you think owlet dear?
Yuu(Clawthorn): I think it’s a wonderful idea mother
Later that night yuu and her palismen had heard what sounded like a voice calling her from the living room she quickly got up and got dressed walked down stairs without waking up her parents when she stared at her reflection but it suddenly turned dark with glowing green flames and the voice had said to take their hands and not let go the next thing she and crystal knew she woke up out of a coffin encounter a mystery flaming cat like monster named grim ( she had the same reaction that Luz had when she first saw king ) yuu rushed to hug and pet him making him purr then encountered the head master saying that she the is first and only girl in night raven college[an all boys college]. Wonder how would anyone react to a young powerful witch from another realm enrolled in their campus see how strong, powerful and intelligent she is. And most importantly would have a crush on her and want to have a romantic steady relationship with her if they got a chance ( my two picks are leona and malleus )( best friends ace and deuce the four of them are known as the"wild magic coven")
Bonus: she able to go home on Fridays, weekends and invites her friends and come back for classes, grim gets adopted by the clawthorn family
I LOVE THIS IDEA!!

how would your aus be like now that we know more stuff about the show?
oh god there would be sooooooo incredibly many changes. some I'm gonna leave alone unless directly asked but for some main ones atm--
Four Years: oh dear god so many changes. both just from learning more and also from the fact of being an au I came up with when I was 14 and I would never recommend anyone ever be the age of 14, my sincerest apologies to one luz noceda. I could make a whole other post about this but just to keep it simple lets sayyyyyy...first of all, Amity doesn't go into the Emperor's Coven. I personally still like the idea, but it doesnt really fit. theres helping her mom show off to customers, and then theres being forced into a Coven that wants to murder her crush and her crush's adoptive mom. Amity gives me the impressive of someone who would just start biting. Escaping Expulsion was Amity's "standing up to her mom" episode and I love that sm for her, I'm thinking maybe it could be redone in this au to also involve refusing to even consider the Coven? Dunno, but I know Amity doesn't join it, and neither do the twins.
Keene doesn't exist anymore, obviously. we're back on the Hunter show babey and his redemption arc (like most arcs here) take a much longer time to get on with. most remains the same, but he has a lot more interaction with Luz & the gang prior to Eclipse Lake. that episode becomes more of a "we were making so much progress but then the Panic Button hit in and everything collapsed in on itself" and then some tension between the gang of Hunter feeling shitty and not talking, the guys trying to figure out whats with him, and then Hollow Mind comes in an fucks up everything, as per usual
No more angsty fics about Camila missing her daughter because Vee's here now! yaaaaay. but this does mean Camila went a longer time without ever realizing her daughter was someone else, although I imagine at some point she WOULD feel that something was just Off. obviously shes a regular human shes not gonna think a shapeshifter took the place of her daughter, but shes gonna know something is Off and Strange but she cant put her finger on it and Luz seems happy...most of Yesterday's Lie remains the same but since it's at least been two years, maybe three, since Luz has seen her mom, she looks MUCH different than how Vee changed her appearance, so it throws Camila off quite a bit
smaller things will also stay, such as Luz becoming the Owlet and everyone being their own kinda brand of rebel. I'd have to figure out how to slide in Raine, Darius, Eberwolf, etc, somewhere in here. I'll figure it out
Beta: this one stays the most unchanged I think? granted I was updating it slightly more with updates in the show than Four Years. Hunter is still local nephew of principal and Belos's plan still involves killing all witches but its just in the "saving humanity from these evils" instead of "saving humanity from these evils and then going home". still unsure how the grimwalkers would tie into this, if my guy was just continuously making kids or if hes not actually a puritan and just a nasty old guy, and all the other golden guards are Hunter's older brothers? and he was possibly kidnapped when he was a baby or something? that part im the least sure on
Emperor: well, first of all, the duo of Amity & Luz becomes the trio of Amity, Luz & Hunter. none of them get along. Amity is constantly exasperated by Luz and her dumbassery & Luz thinks shes uptight and a tryhard at times. Luz and Hunter are dumbass on dumbass hatecrimes because Luz also thinks hes uptight but also a massive brat who thinks hes better than everyone & Hunter thinks shes annoying as hell and beneath him on every level. Hunter and Amity just take one look at each other, smell the Gifted Child With Parental Issues Trying To Be Perfect In Every Single Way on each other, and immediately drop into offensive hissing cat positions.
Luz and Hunter are the ones who get along first, mostly cause Luz getting brought over to the Emperor's Coven kind of guaranteed she'd run into Hunter first and they'd end up sticking to each other and realize they're massive nerds. Luz and Amity get along next through the power of Luz being stubborn and wlw. Hunter and Amity are last and technically it only really happens because they may be petty and spiteful but they can and will set that aside for one goal: being even pettier and even more spiteful to anyone being mildly annoying to Luz
This AU in particular hasn't had a lot of updates to it so theres a lot of room to work with her. Luz technically becomes friends with Willow and Gus because shes undercover trying to get new recruits (shes terrible at it). this also means that Hunter is more easily converted to the side of Oh Belos Fucking Sucks because he already has adopted sister Luz telling him to Run and her mildly okay girlfriend yoinking him along. course this also means it fucks up Luz even more to see that Hunter is a grimwalker and, per paraphrased word of Belos, she was the favorite. if it came down to it, Belos would've happily let Hunter die, hell, would've even done it on purpose. by virtue of being human, and Hunter being a clone, she was, in fact, given special treatment, and if anything went slightly wrong then Hunter would've died. these kids are fucked up

The Witch in The Woods
(Call of Duty modern magic au thing)
- - -
In today's age, overtaken by the grasp of social media and modernity, one would hear the word 'magic' and think it be only a fantasy. Little do they know there has been a new beginning to a new era, beginning at a slow and steady pace.
You are already aware of this, as you are one of the few witches who live in secrecy, hidden in the dark forest which bends to your will through your connection to nature. You rarely walk out of your home, a nice homely cottage in the denser and thicker deep parts of the forest.
You're what the children call 'The Witch in The Woods', believed to be evil and your intentions to be of the malicious type. Most believe you're a myth, but no one can penetrate the barrier of large trees keeping your home hidden and tucked away from all of society. No one bothers you, you do summon portals to travel to the nearest town for ingredients or groceries but you only use your disguises to not garner any attention to your messy and curly white hair, your strange clothing and your peculiar purple eyes.
No one knows you either, as each day you change up your disguises to keep people off your trail and to stop them from trying to befriend you or talk to you. You enjoy your solitude despite living with crows and owls, who you call your children.
Today starts off like every other day, with you waking up by hearing the cawing of one of your crows. You softly pat his head to stop the repetitive cawing before sitting up with a yawn, keeping your blanket clinging to your shoulders when you get up and shuffle your way out of your room and into your kitchen.
Despite the dark shade your hidden home is in, you still get enough sunlight to shine through your windows. In your kitchen, a few baby owlets chirp happily to you as a large snowy owl stands next to the stovetop with a spatula in claw. There's already eggs and bacon being fried, as well as potatoes, which you're grateful for. You grab your favorite coffee cup and pour yourself some coffee already brewed, snapping your fingers to summon forth the sugar from the counter and the milk from the fridge.
A different crow with a blue ribbon on it's left leg flies in from the window, holding a single envelope in it's beak. " Ah, good morning Sylvia. " Sylvia caws a bit happily when you take the envelope and give her some scratches underneath her beak. Sitting down with a spoon magically stirring your coffee, you open up the envelope and take out a letter, folding it open. " That widowed bride from two years ago wrote back, huh. 'Dear friend, thank you very much for the love potion! I know it's been a while since we've last spoken but all is well here, I've gotten a new lover (well, lovers) and we've all moved in together! Much love, your friend Doreen.' "
You smile warmly as you set the letter down, letting a baby crow take it and flap away to your study. Taking a sip and snapping your fingers, you summon a plate to float towards the eggs, potatoes and bacon after the white owl hoots at you. It serves the food onto the plate, the drawer magically opening and a fork floating up.
" Thank you Finn, could you check in with the ravens outside? In case we have another visitor? " Finn the white owl salutes with one wing, taking off through the open window. " Thank you! "
You proceed to eat with your phone floating above your food, videos playing. Once you're finished and you put your plate in the sink, Finn flies back in quickly and communicates through a series of hooting. You stop moving when he does, looking at him while you listen. " Oh shit. "

A Weekend At Datura's
Summary: Eda, King and Enzo start their stay at Datura's with check ups for everyone.
Word count: 3.3k
Warnings: medical stuff, referenced trauma(it's Eda this time), medical trauma, fear of nightmares.
A/N: because of my toh aus, the collector is always just Enzo in my head, just they are more Enzo than the collector and I think that's funny.
Eda raises two gods AU link here.
________________________________________________________________________________
Enzo flared their ears on Datura's request, and she stuck a small tub with a light inside it. It tickled.
"Your ears are clean and your ear drums look normal." Datura said, writing something down.
"I'm still going to do a hearing test, just to be sure." She added.
After playing outside, the owl lady had called them back on and said that they needed a physical examination. Datura was checking a lot of things, she'd had him sit on some platform that gave her numbers. She didn't like those numbers. And she was finding issues with other things, though she insisted it wasn't their fault, and gave him a treat to prove it.
They sucked on the chewy fruit treat he had been given while she wrote something else down.
"I'm going to do another scan, Owlet, I'm scanning your lungs and heart for issues." Datura explained before she cast the spell.
The blue spotlight fell on their chest and the image appeared in front of them. It detailed their heart and lungs. Eda looked a bit confused by the display but Datura didn't mind at all.
"They don't have a bile sack?" Eda asked.
"Not every demon has a separate organ for it, the heart and bile sack are the same organ in Owlet's case, this is typically a trait of older species. Enzo's magic is in his blood." Datura said.
She wasn't entirely right but Enzo wasn't about to correct her.
"Does that change anything I should do for them?" Eda asked.
"No, they just won't need to be checked for bile leeches." Datura said.
"King needs to be checked for fleas. Este's cousin was really bad about checking and got fleas easily." Enzo remembered.
Datura smiled at him.
"I'll get a flea prescription for him." She said.
"Little guy was nasty sick with a parasite when we brought him home, he might need some shots." Eda added.
Datura nodded.
"Why does he need shots?" Enzo asked, turning to look at the owl lady.
"Oh, it's just vaccine shots, do you know what that is?" She said.
Enzo shook their head.
"Vaccines are used to strengthen immune systems by injecting dead or weakened viruses into the patient so they can build up defenses against it and stay safer if they get infected. And if he's got any other parasites, we can take care of that too." Datura told them.
"So it's immunization?" Enzo asked.
"Yes, exactly that, just with an injection." Eda said.
"Does it hurt?"
"A little bit, he will probably think I'm trying to kill him since he's too young to understand. It's just a little pinch for a few seconds then it's done, sometimes the spot will be sore because I'm injecting fluid into a muscle, but that'll fade in a few days." Datura explained.
Enzo nodded, it made enough sense. He glanced at Eda behind them, she hadn't said anything about turning into that beast yet, but she had said it messed with her magic and now they were getting a little curious about it.
"Eda, what did you turn into?" They asked without really thinking.
Her face paled and she stared at them. Uh oh. I did something wrong again! Enzo whimpered and tucked into themself.
"Edalyn has Werebeast ancestry, the creature you saw is her alternate form."
Enzo untucked and glanced up at Datura.
"Really? Is that why her magic stopped working?" He asked.
"Yes, she got unlucky and has no intermediate form, so it takes a lot of energy and magic to transform, hers are caused by strong emotional responses, not a conscious choice like mine are." She said.
That explained it.
"Is that why you have a nest?" They asked Eda.
She blinked then smiled, and laughed.
"Yeah Starshine, that's why I've got the nest." She confirmed, patting their head.
"Datura's gotta check your reflexes now, so sit still." She told them.
They did as told and sat as still as they could. Datura tapped a strange hammer looking thing on his knee, they kicked up without meaning too and almost hit Datura. The Werebeast effortlessly avoided the strike.
"Ek! I'm sorry!" They shouted.
"It's fine Owlet, that's the point of this test. You did very well." She said calmly.
She's not mad I almost kicked her?
"You're not mad I almost kicked you?" He wondered.
"No, that's the reaction I want, I'd be concerned if you had no reaction." She clarified.
"Why would that be a problem?" They asked.
"It would mean your muscles and nervous system aren't responding the way they should, which is generally a sign of health issues. You responded perfectly, so there's no problem with you." The Werebeast said.
"Oh, so it's a good thing I almost kicked you?"
"Yes, and you wouldn't be the first if you actually did, I've been doing this for decades." She said, smiling again.
Huh. That's different.
XXX
Eda's back cracked horribly when she finally got up after the kids' check up. She winced at the soreness all over her body. She'd normally hit the appleblood hard with body pains like this, though being drunk might not be a good idea as a guest.
I can just tough it out. She decided.
Enzo and King's examinations had gone great, there weren't any medical issues or problems that she needed to be aware of, and despite some oddities, Datura hadn't found anything harmful about their strange biology.
It had certainly revealed a few things though.
Apparently, both kids had extremely strong digestive systems, with poison neutralizing enzymes, much like witches and demons, but also highly acidic stomach acids more for digesting tougher foods. The kids could eat pretty much anything. At least she didn't have to worry about King giving himself food poisoning.
"Owlet, Pup, there are some treats in the fridge, you can help yourselves and watch something on the crystal ball." Datura was telling the kids.
"Okay!" Enzo chirped.
"Treat! Treat! Treat!" King cheered, squirming excitedly in Enzo's arms.
"Let's not give the little monster too much sugar." Eda warned.
Enzo shrugged and rolled out of the office with King on his lap. Eda followed but found herself stopped by a tentacle wrapping around her wrist. She glanced over her shoulder at Datura, Enzo had paused to wait for her.
"Not you. I sincerely doubt you've been to a healer in the last eleven years, kit, you're overdue for a check up." The Werebeast said sternly.
Eda took one look at the fierce expression on Datura's face and knew the old beast wouldn't budge on the topic. She groaned and turned back to the room, crossing her arms and glaring at Datura.
"Should we stay too?" Enzo asked.
"No, Owlet, I have to conduct a full body check up, which you shouldn't see." Datura stated.
"Uh, okay, is something wrong with her?" Enzo's voice had a trace of worry in it.
"No, unless being an adult is a problem, it's just part of life for grown ups." Datura said sweetly.
Enzo cooed in understanding. Eda didn't actually know if the kid really knew what Datura was talking about, but they certainly understood the private part well enough.
"She'll be out soon, Peño and Nita will watch you." Datura explained.
"Okay, see you in a bit." Enzo said.
She glanced back and saw them waving, she gave them a little wave back before Datura shut the door. The Werebeast wisely waited a few minutes, ensuring no little ears heard something they shouldn't.
"You can sit on the table." Datura told her.
Begrudgingly, Eda sat on the examination table.
"Do I really need a full check up?" She groaned.
"Have you seen a gynecologist in the last eleven years?" Datura prompted.
"No." She muttered.
"Then yes. If it helps, I'll just do a scan, nothing more, unless something warrants it." Datura told her.
"Fine." Eda grumbled.
Datura turned her back to gather the necessary equipment. She spotted a syringe among the neat line up and a shiver went down her spine.
Probably need a blood test, or a shot or something. She told herself.
She crossed her arms in an attempt to discreetly ward off the feeling of unwanted hands on her. Her fingers brushed against faded, jagged scars, they hardly felt like more than a raised line on her skin now.
She repeatedly ran her fingers over them, despite the violent acquisition of those scars, when she felt them all she could think of was warm, gentle hands carefully checking the wounds, a tender touch making sure she was okay. It was a stark contrast to the rough, cold phantom grip of being poked and prodded and examined. It was a comfort she had turned to many times in the past. A permanent reminder on her body of the first kindness she'd seen as a newly cursed teenager.
In a way, it also reminded her that there would always be one person who wasn't scared of her.
A flash of plum colored hair caught her attention right as a hand brushed against her shoulder. Kind, bright green eyes looked down at her.
"Are you ready to be scanned?" Datura asked in that same soft, gentle voice she had used with Enzo, and used way back when Eda was a child.
Eda nodded and allowed the Werebeast healer to scan her body.
The results were one of the only times Eda had seen her mentor even marginally surprised.
It made sense, the x-ray, MRI and ultrasound scans showed what a mess her body was.
From the looks of it, her arthritis had gotten worse. She had had the beginnings of it back when she still lived with Datura, but she hadn't checked up on it, or really done all that much for it besides pain relief and getting drunk, since then.
Her muscles were labeled as showing signs of strain by the diagnostic, and she had inflamed joints all over her body.
She was surprised at the extent of them, she had honestly thought it would be much worse. It felt way worse some days.
Datura was silently analyzing the results with her back turned. Eda couldn't gauge her reaction.
Finally, she spoke.
"At what point is the pain the worst?" She asked, her voice shook ever so slightly.
"It's pretty random sometimes, most days something hurts, but I feel like absolute shit after a transformation, it feels like my bones are on fire." Eda said.
"I can get potions made for you, one will help ease the pain on a day to day basis and the other can give relief to the worst of your pain after a transformation." Datura stated.
Eda raised an eyebrow at her mentor's back. Her voice sounded odd, strained with emotion. Almost like Datura was trying not to cry. She had never seen or heard Datura cry in all the years she'd known her. She was always so in control of herself, if she did cry, it was when Eda wasn't around.
"Datura?" She asked quietly.
Her mentor stilled, minus the twitching of her tail, staring at her reflection in the window. She seemed to be reminded of something that snapped her out of it.
"It's nothing, I just don't like seeing others in pain like this," she paused and drew in a sharp breath.
"But part of being a healer is knowing you can't heal every injury, and you can only do your best to make any lingering pain more manageable." She turned back to Eda with a fire in her eyes.
Eda relaxed, for a moment she was worried that something about herself had given Datura a flashback or something. The bold scar on the Werebeast's face had come from somewhere.
"Luckily for you, what your curse does to your body is similar to the effects of shifting for hybrids without an intermediate form, so the solution to the pain is similar." Datura said.
The mention of Werebeast hybrids called Datura's explanation for her curse to the kids to her mind as Datura continued to conduct the check up.
"Hey, what you said to the kids, about the Werebeast stuff, you made that up, right?" She inquired.
"No, I didn't."
"Well, that's a relief- wait, what?" Eda snapped her head towards Datura.
"You are of Evelyn's line, correct?" Datura prompted.
"Yeah but-" Eda started.
"Then you have Werebeast blood. It's fairly diluted by now, enough to be detectable in your scent but not enough for anything beastly aside from sharper senses and the occasional birth defect." Datura explained.
"Your great grandmother had a long feathered tail and claws, she liked to climb, and fell quite a bit too. I used to see her a lot, she used her claws to carve." Datura went on.
Eda stared at her mentor in disbelief. Then she started connecting the dots.
Evelyn had lived a rather long time, seen her great, great, great grandchildren and had been around long enough for them to remember her well. The clan matriarch was highly respected within her clan, and others still recognized and respected her personal symbol. A golden Phoenix. Evelyn was wild and reckless in her youth, something Eda had often been compared to as a child by her father. She and her dad shared Evelyn's golden eyes.
It suddenly made sense why she was depicted with feathers and seemingly symbolic wings in the old tapestries.
"So was Evelyn a Werebeast?" She asked, extending her arm for Datura.
"No, she was a hybrid, she had a very witch-like intermediate form from what I've been told, it wasn't especially good for her shifts. My elders say she had the form of an enormous Phoenix and could set the skies ablaze." Datura said as she drew Eda's blood.
"Huh, wonder why I've never heard of it like that." Eda mused.
Datura shot her a dark look. Oh. Covens, emperor Belos, wild magic, and wild things like Werebeasts, being withheld information. It always came back to Belos somehow.
"Your family didn't want to be targeted, so they wouldn't have told you the truth until you were old enough to keep it a secret. Knowing you, kit, you would've bragged about it." Datura said with a hint of a smile.
Eda stuck her tongue out at the Werebeast to no effect.
"Childish kit." Datura rolled her eyes and nudged her playfully.
She blew a raspberry at her.
"Oh settle down, we've got your examination to finish." Datura scolded lightly.
Eda relented with a grumble and let Datura continue.
XXX
Eda's old room looked practically untouched from when she'd last seen it, the only thing that had been cleared out were the animal bones that had been scattered around.
The nest she'd built while here still sat in the middle. It was a decent size, maybe a bit of a tight fit with the kids but she could adjust it a bit, and it wasn't like the kids gave her much space when they slept in her nest. King would end up sprawled out on her or Enzo's face and Enzo would snuggle up close to her in their sleep.
They were adorable little nest hogs.
"Nothing wanted to stay here, so I just left it, in case you ever needed it." She glanced over at Datura standing in the hallway.
The Werebeast held a stack of neatly piled sheets and blankets in her arms. Datura didn't really need blankets, if she was cold she could shift into her fur covered form, but she liked the soft, cozy feeling of them, so she had a surplus.
Eda accepted the sheets and began to make the nest comfortable for her and the kids. Datura left to get them and soon, the tired pair of siblings were curled up together.
Enzo was trying hard to stay awake, even though they were obviously exhausted.
"You can go to sleep, Starshine, nothing's gonna happen tonight." Eda said, patting their head gently.
She had told her mentor about the kid's sleeping issues, both types of nightmares they had and what she could do to help. Datura had provided her with a temporary fix, a couple vases of Hyssopi set around the room as decor, and bundles of Sage Nettles to deter spirits and foul forces.
In the past, Datura had used Hyssopi and Sage Nettles to help Eda with her own nightmares and they worked. The main problem with this method was that the plants would gradually lose their potency over a number of days and if something was extremely motivated, it could break through the barrier. But! This was in Datura's territory, her magic was a powerful force to reckon with, any unwanted forces would have to seriously think twice about continuing.
So, for tonight, no one was in danger of nightmares of any kind.
Maybe I should start growing some of those plants around the house, it might help the kid relax. Eda thought.
"How do you know?" Enzo yawned.
"Datura's good at fighting nightmares, trust me." She said.
Behind her, Datura was dragging a round, plush bed that reminded her of a dog bed into the room, setting it up beside the nest.
"You've got nothing to worry about Starshine, I'm here, King's here, Nibs is here, nothing's gonna happen." She promised the worried kid.
Enzo was biting their lip, that was becoming a bit of a nervous habit. Nibs purred and curled up on Enzo's head, tongue flicking as she urged them to sleep. King was already knocked out on Enzo's lap.
Enzo's eyes drooped and they yet out a huge yawn. Eda chuckled and Datura chuffed.
"You're a sleepy little Owlet." Datura purred softly.
"Yes, a very sleepy owlet." Eda agreed.
Enzo just blinked sleepily at her and yawned again.
"C'mon, bed time. I'll leave a light in case you need to use the bathroom." Eda said.
She drew a small spell circle and a couple of witch lights floated out of it. Her magic was slowly but steadily returning. Enzo's tired eyes lit up at the witch lights.
"It's like stars." He whispered.
"I like stars, they're pretty and bright and have fun pictures… she used to make light shows with them for me… she told the best stories…" Enzo mumbled.
"Who's this, Owlet?" Datura asked.
"My sister… she's my favorite…" they murmured.
"She sounds real nice, Starshine." Eda whispered.
Enzo nodded slightly, their eyes were drooping shut, heading off to sleep. Eda chuckled and settled herself in, while it was a bit of a squeeze, it was the cozy sort of tightness. She glanced over to find Enzo had drifted off to sleep.
"You sure have your hands full with those two." Datura whispered, her bright eyes glowing in the warm yellow light.
"Yeah, they're really good kids." Eda said.
"Your Owlet is very sweet…" Datura paused, luminous eyes fixed on the sleeping kid.
"Something troubles them, it goes deeper than I initially thought." She looked back up to meet Eda's gaze.
"I do not know what either of them are, I have some theories, but I need to research before I speak of them." Datura said, stopping Eda's questions before she could ask them.
"What matters most is that they are children, and thus, they are happy and cared for. In that aspect, you're doing a wonderful job, kit." Datura purred.
Eda could hear the pride in her voice. That sort of parental pride was something she hadn't heard in a while. Eleven years. A twinge of guilt ruined the moment, Eda couldn't meet Datura's proud, caring gaze.
As always, Datura knew how she was feeling and chose to change the subject.
"It is time to sleep, kit, there is a big day tomorrow." She yawned.
The signature sound of the Werebeast's transformation followed. She stood and stretched out her back then circled the bed she had brought in before laying back down.
"Night." Eda said.
Datura purred in response, and kept purring til morning.
That night, Enzo's dreams were filled with star sagas, space dust that shimmered a million colors, and gentle, caring laughter as they played games together.
________________________________________________________________________________
I decided that Caleb not only fell in love with a witch, he fell in love with a witch that transformed into a giant golden firebird, cause that'd make Philip even more mad about the situation.
And Phoenix Werebeast Evelyn is a really fun idea, I might draw that eventually. She'd definitely randomly take Caleb on flights and toss him around in the air for shiggles.
Evelyn was a fourth generation hybrid, so she had ~6.25% of her blood as werebeast blood, but she could shift and had an intermediate form so yeah, Werebeast blood is powerful.
Eda has about ~1.5% werebeast blood but not a sixth gen hybrid, that's due to other low level hybrids mixing in with her family and boosting the blood levels of werebeast blood concentration, cause magic science..
Enzo knows what immunization is cause the Titans immunized themselves, he just didn't know that vaccination was the same thing.
Hyssopi is based on Hyssop, it's good for nightmares. Sage Nettles is a combination of sage and stinging nettles, deters spirits and outside forces using mind based magic, used in potions to protect mindscape from being invaded, sweet smelling.
So, the finale was epic, but Enzo wouldn't leave after all of that, definitely wouldn't see the Archivists without moral support back up. The Archivists are really interesting though, I'm definitely doing something with them.
And just for clarification, Enzo didn't go to the demon realm because the Archivists told them to, he did that on his own cause, nobody's paying attention or has the time to play, imma sneak off and make new friends. That was Enzo's thought process.

Wow I got distracted by playing for way longer than I thought to day. Anyway, my wol utc:
This is Ater Lucidus! Obviously, he's a Raen AU Ra, and a Black Mage!
My partner was the one who got me into FFXIV, and helped me pick a class to start with. She was especially helpful when it came to picking out an outfit, it was a bit overwhelming trying to figure everything out.
Back to my wol though, he doesn't have an especially comprehensive backstory yet, nor might he ever since I want to keep it out of the focus.
The basics:
He was considered unlucky when he was born, since his mother died shortly afterwards. Ater has three older siblings, who mostly took care of him after his father became increasingly distant to him after losing his wife. Though he would never say it out loud, he believes his father blames him, though whether this is true or not isn't certain since he was never really able to speak to his father.
He ran away sometime during his early teens because he was deeply unhappy in his tribe. His siblings were nice, great even, but he never felt a sense of belonging there.
Running away leads him to encounter another tribe of Au Ra, the Xaela this time. Here, he would meet his soon to be adoptive older sister Vey, the wol of a friend of mine. She brought him home, pestered her father relentlessly to let him stay, and soon enough, he gave in. Though he was never told it outright, they took him in because Vey's younger brother had passed away not long ago. He was essentially a replacement, which lead to complicated feelings for Ater.
In spite of that, the tribe became his new home for some years. As a young adult, Ater left again however, feeling increasingly like a burden to the family since he was never interested in their warlike ways. This time, his wandering takes him to Ul'dah, where he quickly settles into the life of an adventurer and Thaumaturge. The rest, as they say, is history.
For some basic facts:
He's roughly 217cm tall/2.1 feet (heels not included)
He's gay, and in a committed relationship (with my partner's wol, I'm not posting anything about them without permission though)
While he's very intelligent, as expected of Black Mages, he has a tendency to come up with... somewhat silly names, usually the first thing he thinks of when he sees something
His chocobo is ash grey and named Borb
He's incredibly fond of birds, to the point that he won't use any mounts besides Borb and his favourite minion is Owlet
In contrast, he's terrified of the ocean and sea creatures in general (no particular reason, he just almost passed out the first time he was in Limsa)
If anyone wants to send any asks or similar, feel free to! I'm still not entirely sure how to use Tumblr nor how to play FFXIV, but I'm loving it so far.
#FFXIV#ffxiv wol#ffxiv oc#my ocs - ater lucidus#*pokes the gpose settings* you confound and confuse me#i should probably add more about his personality and stuff but i am like#very tired today and probably will continue to be until the weekend#asks give me strength pls send as many as you want#should i do like. a wol blog? i dont even know how to do sideblogs on here#hit post and dont look back

Dangers elsewhen
-Three weeks later-
With Lilith's aid, the owl squad made excellent progress. The original portal door was in pieces following the last big battle. Alador Blight was granted what remained as research materials. Odalia immediately made a move for the ownership of Blight Industries. Alador began a start up company as a means of stable income. Thus allowing him more time for his kids and a better business model. "Abomination Technological Solutions" became the beginning of a better future for the Blight family. King was also a part of the portal making process. The knowledge of King's titan origin was maintained to a few. The owl house gang( including Luz's Hexside squad) were the only ones who knew. After discussing it, Alador was permitted to be amongst those who knew. At King's suggestion, the portal doors still needed to be perfected. The young titan's blood was a potential ingredient. With King's help, Alador created temporary doorways. However, they were one time transports. A round trip would require two keys. Alador theorized that, since King hadn't reached full maturity, his blood didn't produce the same exponential power as his fallen father.
They shouldn't expect the same results. Needless to say, Alador constructing an abomination prosthetic arm was a step in the right direction.
Luz decided to take the trip alone. The time she wanted to travel to wouldn't have been too far back. The chance of accidentally running into a past self was higher with more people.
After three weeks, they managed to find one closest to what Luz wanted. At the bottom of what remained of Belos's castle, Luz and her team readied themselves.
Lilith: "Are you positive the portal you want is down here?"
Eda: "I still say one of us should go with you."When the Collector terraformed the Boiling Isles, the old castle was left in ruin. Now, it had an entire team from the (former) construction coven always on standby. Luz tied a fortified rope around her. Remembering what happened last time, the "Bad girl coven" came to make sure Luz came back ok.
Luz: "If anything goes wrong, you've still got one time travel expert with you."
Eda: "Calling her an 'expert' is pushing it. But we gotcha. Anyhow, take these."
The owl lady pulled a large sack, filled with spherical glass bottles.
Eda: " I grabbed every healing potion out there. Every possible elixir for any possible trouble. From scrapes to having one foot through death's door, there's something for everything."
Luz embraced her witch mother/teacher. She then began stocking her backpack with as many as she could. Lilith handed her two makeshift keys. Edric laid out wooden stakes surrounding the pool and secured Luz's rope with others attached to each post.
Luz: "Come on, time pool, mama wants a win here."
Luz dove headfirst into the unknown. She popped right out of the ground, on the other side. Undoing her tether, she quickly pressed her back against the wall and pulled a bandana. With her make do mask, she traveled the castle's lower levels. Hunter had drawn her a map and tried to recall any minor detail about the building's routine. The first hiccup became apparent. Belos could be heard speaking in the distance. Her eyes darted until she saw a light coming from an unlocked wooden door. She dashed for it and found herself in the same room from Belos's memories. The old portal door. To the left, blueprints for door keys and a book on grimwalkers.
Luz: "Aaand snoop."
Now that she had a new working phone, snatching quick shots of castle secrets was a cinch. She pocketed the goods and made her way to the exit. Until a new idea caused her to halt in her tracks. Belos probably had the original key on him. But he must be using titan's blood or something close to a synthetic version. She popped open a valve and dipped an empty bottle in the fuel source. After filling it to the brim, she stored it in her left pocket.
Belos: "Helping yourself to some royal secrets, thief?"
Luz was thrown against the wall with her bag on the floor.
Belos: "Is that a human good? Are you one of the owl lady's agents?"
Luz kept glyphs up her sleeve for such occasions. She faked a finger twirl as she fired off a fire glyph. Belos deflected the shot with an unamused demeanor.
Belos: "Rather sloppy tactic. Did you really expect to defeat me in one on one combat?"
Smirking under her bandana, she gestured to the contents left on his table. One of the blueprints caught fire. For a moment, Belos shifted his focus completely away from Luz. In that moment, she used a fire and ice glyph to create a mist that filled the room. Not missing a beat, she activated an invisibility glyph. Belos wasn't yet aware of the glyph combo. He'd been scanning the room for any signs of a glowing halo. So busy looking for one specific sign of magic, he didn't notice the bag suddenly disappear from view. After retrieving her things, she bolted for the door. Belos might not have been able to see her, but he did hear the door creak as it opened. Luz escaped the room, but let out a gasp when a pipe just missed her head. Belos launched the metal pipes through the wall from the inside. Unfortunately, they just happened to block the way back to the pool. She remembered Hunter talking about the castle air ducts. If she could find one, she might be able to find another way to the other side. Sprinting under the cover of another invisibility glyph, she ran towards the upper levels. As luck would have it, she would need to breathe; right as the head of the illusion coven came around the corner.
Graye: "I don't remember requesting an understudy. Especially one with your fashion sense."
Belos: " Graye!"
No time to play it safe. She pulled one of Alador's keys, but it disappeared in her hand. Graye disappeared and reappeared next to Belos, with her key in his hand.
Graye: "Here you are, sir. What do you make of this?"
Belos: "Another crude attempt to impede the day of unity. Compliments of the owl lady, no doubt. Graye, find out what this one knows."
As dangerous as it was to leave a key here, she used her spare to open a portal next to the pool. As it formed, Graye used his mirror glass earring on Luz. She stumbled as his magic probed her memories. The pain didn't let her see straight.Graye: "The day of unity is right around the corner. So, what is she plotting?"
Graye saw memories of the C.A.T.S briefing their plan to Eda and the others, but only glimpses.
Graye: "Raine Whispers a sleeper agent? Now there's a twist."
The warped door opened in front of them, just as Luz wanted. One glitch that came with these incomplete doors. When they first open up, they flash a blinding light. Graye clamped his eyes shut from the pain. As it turned out, the Belos own eyes nearly burst out of their sockets when the crude doorway began to take form. Thus, he witnessed the blinding effect.. She stumbled towards the door and walked through. Sure enough, there was the rope leading right into the floor.
Luz: " Ok, now I just got to..."
Graye: " You're not going anywher..."
Out of sheer reflex, Luz sucker punched Graye as he peeked his head through. He didn't make it through, but Luz's key did. The doorway seemed to be closing, but then something stranger happened. Normally, the temporary doorways disappear into thin air. But instead, a whirlwind seemed to come from the pool. The room became enveloped in the portal's lights. Luz began to be carried by the up draft. Her spare key flew out of grasp, alongside the bottle of portal fuel she snatched. It was like a violent tornado was squating in there, with her. Her first step was to reunite her tether to herself. The fortified rope began to pull her back as it felt the "signal". She tried to snatch the last two pieces of her present. The bottle smashed against the wall, permitting its contents to swirl around the room. Her key became smeared with Belos' fuel. Just as she was close to being dragged down, she managed to clench the key in her fist. She could hear the voices approaching from the hallway. She might have bitten off more than she could chew. She thought of her family and friends.
Luz: "This is crazy. If I die here, my mom's gonna kill me."
Her nerves caused her to unintentionally press the key's button...on the way down.
Author’s note:
I forgot to mention last time, Eda has an abomination prosthetic arm from Alador. The reason Luz went looking for a vent instead of using the makeshift key is stealth. The flash would likely have caught the attention of anyone nearby. Her first fight with Belos taught her she couldn’t beat him head-on. He had been able to maneuver around her and had an array of tricks. If she wasn’t sure he could blind him and close her escape in pinch, she wouldn’t risk him discovering a new door model. This way, Belos would just believe it was an illusion meant only to blind him long enough for her to escape. His own ego wouldn’t permit him to admit that someone had built another door model. Much less a faceless intruder.
I also wanted something to explain how they figured out the C.A.T.S. plan for the day of unity. I didn’t like the idea that one of them had been a traitor.

Howdy!
Hope you’re having a owl-some day!
For your Court of Owls Au, I was wondering at what point does everyone accept Tim as part of the flock?
I saw one post that said Bruce takes him under his wing as soon as he realizes his parents go south for the winter (and fall, and spring, and summer lol) without him
And another that said that Cobb wouldn’t view him as part of the parliament until Jason does
I feel like Cass would probably probably love her little owlet brother pretty quick? He joined the fray before her so she wouldn’t have known a time before so I think she would be less inclined to think of him as a cuckoo. Do you agree?
I’m curious at what point Dick would. Canon Dick was teaching Tim flying patterns pretty soon after he accepted Tim as a mentee but Talon Dick had a stronger connection to Jason so I wonder how that would impact their relationship
I’d love to know what makes Jason accept him as a bird of a feather instead of seeing his presence as fowl play
Also would Cobb immediately accept him after Jason says Tim is a part of his party or would he have to do something that proves his loyalty or be in some sort of danger that makes Cobb begrudgingly view him as part of the family?
I’m also curious, once they do accept him, how protective of Tim are they all? Do they keep him close to the nest or let him fly free with the expectation that he keeps them in the loop?
How would they react to him being in danger after they’ve claimed him as one of their own?
(Sorry for all the bird puns, I made one and then couldn’t help myself and had to make more lol)
Hi! So the Talon!Dick Au (Owl Song) is a different universe than the one where the entire batfam is part of the Court of Owls (Court Family Au).
But to answer your question: Cobb would really only accept Tim after Jason has warmed up to him.
Before that, Cobb would only ever see him as an imposter. A poor substitute for the son ward him and Bruce lost. Him threatening to gut Tim was a very serious threat, and also one Bruce had to put his foot down with and straight up order his (slightly deranged) Talon not to act on.
Tim’s attempt to help stabilize the Court (and Bruce) doesn’t help his case very much, because while it sure improves the over all dire situation Gotham’s found herself in after Jason’s death, Tim unwittingly had to take over a lot of the operations and projects that used to be Jason’s.
Cobb was… very protective of the “little street rat” turned “Heart of the Court”. Having someone else “bully” their way into their lives to insert himself into the achingly vacant place Jason left behind dialed his murderous instincts up to a million.
The only reason Cobb doesn’t ignore the command to not hurt Tim is because he can see that both Bruce and Dick take comfort in his presence. That’s it. The moment he thinks Tim is “obsolete”… well. Timbers should keep himself useful is what I’m saying. There’s a proverbial sword of Damocles hanging over him at every step and turn.
As for Cass, she wouldn’t have very many contact points with Tim. She rarely stays at the manor for long, usually opting to oversee Court operations from the Shadows to make sure there are no unnecessary deaths or civilian casualties happening. When she’s home she usually also stays hidden, choosing to observe the manor’s occupants. And sometimes, when Dick or Bruce look particularly sad, she curls up in the seat next to them and leans her head on their shoulders. That always seems to make them happy.
Once Bruce finds out about Tim’s parents being a no-show most of the time and he moves into the manor… well, I think Cass would be intrigued, but everyone’s body language is sending her a lot of mixed signals in regard to the newcomer’s presence.
Dick doesn’t have an issue with Tim. He’s… less than happy about it at first though. Especially when he thinks Tim really is supposed to be a replacement for Jason. But Bruce clears that one up very quickly.
Regardless, Cobb doesn’t agree (he rarely does)
Jason would eventually, and very grudgingly, realize that Tim is the personification of a sad wet cat and extend an olive branch to him in the form of just— existing with him in the same room without spitting vitriol.
Tim straight up thinks he’s going to be murdered. Right now. (Because he can totally see Cobb staring at him from the shadows, he’s got a sixth sense for that look by now)
It’s a slow going progress, but over time Jason’s animosity towards Tim morphs into a fierce kind of protectiveness
And Cobb doesn’t like it, not at all. But Jason’s claimed the kid as part of the parliament, so he’s bound to accept him into the flock as well now.
I’m not sure yet whether Cobb ever truly ends up becoming protective and fond of Tim, but there would definitely have to be another catalyst for it.

ive spoken about the adults in my owlet au but not much about the kids. tumblr is much better than twitter for rambling, i realized. SO,
eda and luz are similar. neither of them are by the book and neither of them really can be contained. they're wild and free and i think eda would have a fairly easy time raising a human child so long as she could figure out her physical needs. she is just naturally good at, if a little unconventional, momming.
luz would also be easy to parent! aside from the typical parts of children that make them hard to raise, she is from a home that loves her a lot. her real mom is a good mom and she has known love thru her for like the whole three years of her life, so while she may miss her mom when she realizes, she'd also be happy with the nice owl lady.
lilith and hunter would be so different than them. hunter has only known regiment and duty, even as a little boy. and in my au, lilith isn't told to be his mentor until he's about five. maybe a smidge younger. developing any sort of connection with hunter would be hard on his end but also lilith's. the two of them are not naturally warm for their own reasons. but i think as a child, hunter would be more trusting. and while Lilith isn't super Nice, she is just more nice than everyone else. so a lot falls on lilith. he looks up to her and listens to her, which is something lilith realizes she likes. with guidance from her sister, she can use it to help him.
belos is similar to the show. he is trying to raise hunter to be special and important. since we don't know why, ive just taken the reins cause... i can and it's not a big deal. (and really, that won't come up til much later.) i really love the theory he's not fully a witch and does have something to do with the wittebane brothers but belos has been lying to him through false praises and care. hunter doesn't know real love and lilith doesn't know how to give it, so developing their lil relationship is the good stuff.
in my au: both sisters are cursed and both kids are unaware. the kids have not met yet. king and hooty are in it!
#t#owlet au#im really sorry but idk how to add the read more thing from my phone#but its rambling hours i guess. day is free... so au brain all day

TOH Fanfic recs! Part 1
(All of these people are my inspiration I stg)
Found family
Make my heart your home series by @tiredandjaded
First fic: Luz accidentally calls Eda "mom" and they both have a crisis over it. Mostly Luz. Second fic: post-YBOS, Luz tells Eda and Lilith of what happened during the rescue mission, and both Luz and Eda give Lilith a shovel talk. Third fic: Luz and Eda are both taking care of each other in the first seven days after coming home. Includes fun sibling bonding!
(Patiently awaiting the next chapter of the third installment!)
Literally anything by @hereforthehurts
The way they write emotions and hurt/comfort is seriously amazing. Never fails to make me cry, especially when it comes to sickfics and fics of Eda and Luz. (I recommend supporting them on Ko-Fi!)
You Are My Sunshine by @liesminelli
One of the first Owl House fics I ever read, and it's SO good! Luz has a night terror and Eda walks in on her freaking out, and it goes from there. The emotions of both characters are very well-written, and the ending is so sweet! I also recommend checking out their other works too!
It's The Least I Could Do by @witchesbeforewizardss
There aren't enough fics of Luz and Lilith bonding, and this is one of the BEST ones. Lilith needs more healthy relationships, and in my opinion, building an aunt-niece relationship with Luz is a great place to start! (next to making amends with Eda) Basically, Luz is feeling homesick, and before dinner, she allows Lilith to help her feel better.
Luz's Not So Great Luck and
A Friendly Beastly Surprise by @animerunner
The first fic has a large abundance of angsty scenarios, mostly AUs, all of which are wonderful to read. My personal favorite is the one where Luz is an orphan and she has a chronic illness, and well, you'll have to read to find out! The second one is canon compliant, and it's about Eda turning into the Owl Beast and treating Luz like an owlet, and Luz is just like "guess this is my life now". It's so cute!
Rainy Day Makeovers by @fallenflowersfromgrace
To summarize, There's boiling rain, and Luz convinces Eda to spend time with her giving each other makeovers. It's very cute, and I love it!
Some Honesty Before Breakfast by @pizzaboat
Eda notices Luz is acting unusual, and gets her to open up. It's in-character, and wonderfully executed.
Thank you for being in my life by @peridot-garcia
Episodes of The Owl House from Eda's perspective, and as of now, also Luz and Lilith's perspective. It's got wonderful found family scenarios, and so far the plot is pretty great!
Lighting up the Dark by The_Quoter
This is a very recent one, and I love it! It's post-Young Blood Old Souls, and Eda comes to terms with how much Luz means to her, while also helping her come out of a nightmare.
The Light Behind Your Eyes by ABirdinFlight
Post-Young Blood. Eda gives Lilith a shovel-talk (harsh but well-deserved) and has a heart-to-heart talk with Luz in her room.
Moonlit Masquerade: Replacement by Rohad
Similar to make my heart your home, Luz accidentally calls Eda "mom" and both of them have a crisis over it. (As expected!)
Bad Days by @drabbles-of-writing
Part of their Four Years AU, Luz has an episode, and Eda takes her home to help her calm down. It's very bittersweet and heartfelt.
Gratuitous Embellishments of Chicken Noodle Soup by Rulerofthecosmosandsnails
Luz almost drowns at the Knee, but her Owl Mom is there to help her get better, including making her soup! (Yeah, my fic Snow Day was inspired by this)
A Line Crossed by Clevinger
AU in which Luz dies by the spikes at the bridge, in front of Eda, who thankfully resurrects her, and as expected, Luz is having a hard time handling it. There's another work inspired by it called Too Much, Too Late by TheHonestyBird.
A nightmare and a hug by moreteaplease
Reeaaally hard to find since it doesn't have the relationship tag for Luz and Eda, but still, it's very good! Post-YBOS, Luz has a nightmare and goes to Eda for comfort, confessing that she misses her mom.
Sleepless Nights by @snail-watch
Similar to the one before this, Luz has a nightmare and goes to Eda for comfort. I loved the way the author wrote Eda's thoughts about Luz!
Mending Trust by @electricwalkman
Similar to The Light Behind Your Eyes. Eda puts Luz to bed, and Luz tells her about the portal being destroyed, and gives her the mask piece. Eda comforts her, as well.
Night Owl and
The Bad Dream Club by @thedrunkenwerewolf / @wolfiethewriter
Eda has trouble sleeping, Luz notices, and Eda confessed that she's scared of hurting Luz as the beast. Luz of course, reassures her by telling her it won't happen. The second fic is the other way around, sorta. Luz has a nightmare and gets herself a drink to calm down, and Eda finds her.
Dreams of a Witch by TheDinosaurNerd
Eda talks to her younger self in her mindscape about her life as a wild witch. (In the end it turns out to be Luz in her lap.)
Griffon Flu by @serendipitouslyss
Another great sickfic! Luz gets the flu, or Griffon Flu as it's called in the Boiling Isles, but Eda and King are more than willing to help her get better.
Owlet by spotty8bee
Ah, the cursed AU that started it all. Only 2 chapters, but it's wonderfully heartbreaking and you really feel for Eda in the second half of chapter 1.
Observations of the Witchy Kind by JoLau
If you like platonic cuddling, you'll love this fic! Luz wants to learn about witch biology, but unfortunately Boscha burns the notebook that had her research, so she tries to rewrite her observations, and ends up catching Eda's attention.
I Need You, Please Don't Leave Me by rainbowpotato12
Luz is having bad thoughts, and worries that something bad could happen to Eda again, but Eda reassures her it won't.
This is Home by SpaghettieBabie
Luz has doubts about herself, and opens up to Eda about it, confessing that she likes her as her mother figure.
I Love the Found Family Trope! by @l-egionaire
Takes place after The Intruder. Eda thinks that Luz and King might leave her after knowing about the curse, and they tell her they would never do that.
Nightmare by OneandOnlyOllie
Another nightmare fic! Eda comforts Luz after a nightmare. Lilith hears the two, and wants to make things right with Luz.
It was not, in fact, a day out by @pizzaboat
Post-YBOS. Eda turns into the Owl Beast, tries to cuddle Luz, Lilith and King in her nest, and they have to come up with a working scheme to turn her back. Basically The Intruder if Lilith was there.
A broken brain by @pizzaboat
I can relate to this one a lot (except my adhd is diagnosed). Luz has trouble focusing on homework, and doesn't know why, and tells Eda she thinks she's going crazy, but Eda tells her she's not, and that Lilith had a similar problem.
What big claws (to protect you with my dear) by @ito-itonomen
AU where Luz is 10 and Eda takes her in, and both of them have doubts about themselves. Chapter 2 is especially good.
Unexpected Hope by @sepublic
Luz talks to Lilith about how she had (surprisingly) inspired her.
Lilith and Eda
Mistakes Might Have Been Made by @fallenflowersfromgrace
WARNING: you will definitely cry in the second chapter!
An AU in which Lilith split the curse with Eda the first time she transformed. Of course, by the time she reveals that she cursed her, it doesn't go well. (Eda's reaction hurts, but it's in character) and the pain in chapter 2 is just…AGONY AND ITS SO GOOD!
Walk Through the Storm, I Would by @lilithswxfe
Trigger warning for self harm and suicidal thoughts in this fic.
Lilith tries to hurt herself while in a bad state, but Eda catches her and comforts her.
Source Decay series by @tiredandjaded
Trigger warning for underage drinking in the second fic.
Two pre-canon fics about Lilith and Eda, the first fic portraying Eda as trans and how she's feeling about her name, and how Lilith helps her. The second one is sadder, it's after the curse and Eda isn't taking Lilith coming home late very well, leading to some…not-so-great coping mechanisms.
Rabbit Heart by radiantstaber
It has found family Owl Mom moments, but then it is mostly about Lilith and Eda rebuilding their relationship, with Luz trying her best to encourage both of them. (The description is very funny, describing the Owl House as a get along shirt.)
The Cafeteria Incident by @electricwalkman
Remember that page from Eda's record about Eda summoning abominations because somebody stole Lilith's lunch money? This is based on that, and it's SO GOOD!
Runaway Raven by @witchesbeforewizardss
Trigger warning for graphic injuries
In both Lilith thinks she doesn't belong with her family in the Owl House, and tries to "punish" herself. Eda convinces her that it's not worth it and she just wants her sister back.
The Long Night by @serendipitouslyss
Post-YBOS, just like The Light Behind Your Eyes. Eda puts Luz to bed, and she and Lilith have a long talk. (Though she's not as harsh.)
A Midnight Talk by @elizabethemerald
Lilith sees Luz having a nightmare, and calms her down for a little bit (via stroking her hair). Eda sees her, and the two have a talk.
I Need a Moment to Quiet This Pain by @come-unhinged
Moments in Eda's life and how she dealt with her curse.
Part 2 might have Lumity idk

June-Sept Recs (10)
This is pitiful. I think I'm mostly re-reading older fic, so I don't end up with anything new to rec? Would you guys want recs of rereads? Re-recs?
✨Crash and Burn by Aureutr_Accoredge
Mandalorian | Din/Luke | Explicit | 315,000 words
There had been no Seeing Stone on Tython that Grogu could use to call for a Jedi. They had survived Gideon's light cruiser mostly by luck. And now Din Djarin is trapped between trying to resume his old life with Grogu in tow or facing what wielding the Darksaber truly means for him and his people. Mostly he just wants a nap.
Luke Skywalker is looking for Jedi artifacts he can use to help build a curriculum for the school he seeks to create. Not that he knows where it will be. Or how to find pupils. But then he runs into a shiny stranger whose beskar armor makes him a null space in the Force. And he doesn't know who Luke is.
Intrigued (and in need of parts to repair his ship), he Skywalkers his way into tagging along on the latest bounty.
Look, I'm pretty far gone on this ship so my judgment is super suspect, but 300K words and I still like a story? It has to be good. If I have to nitpick I can say I would've preferred a more splashy romantic ending but again - 300K words.
Worlds Apart by PepperPrints
Mandalorian | Din/Luke | Explicit | 69,000 words
Having safely delivered the Child, Mand'alor Din Djarin inherits the Darksaber, a ruined planet, and the burden of Moff Gideon's fate. That burden brings Din to the New Republic on Coruscant, where he's thrown into a shimmering world of galactic politics even less familiar to him than the planet meant to be his home.
Din isn't the only one on Coruscant with his hands full of a once forgotten order - the Jedi is here too, and as their paths cross, Din will be forced to navigate both what's expected of him, and what he wants.
Din becomes the leader he's meant to be.
Stardust Legacies by Withercrown
Mandalorian | Din/Luke | Mature | 187,000 words
The child has found safety with the Jedi, but that doesn't mean the threat is over. What's left of the Empire is still hunting Force-sensitive individuals, and a not-so-chance encounter leads Din to some uncomfortable truths regarding his own nature.
What does it mean to be both a Mandalorian and a Jedi, and what will that mean for the future of the galaxy?
This is a proper Star Wars novel. Cards on the table, I'm not at all interested in the wider Star Wars universe, so the whole ensemble was wasted on me. Great writing, made me buy jedi!Din which I didn't think was very probable.
✨Curtains by winterhill
James Bond | Bond/Q | Teen | 20,350 words
Indulgent domesticity. No real plot to speak of, just Bond and Q moving in together as friends after Q is targeted and his place burnt down, and slowly progressing to being a couple.
Frickin' perfect curtainfic.
Mercenary by BootsnBlossoms & Kryptaria
James Bond | Bond/Q | Explicit | 66,000 words
Five years ago, Commander James Bond of Her Majesty's Royal Navy left England in disgrace, escaping a court martial -- and what should have been a promising career in MI6 with Alec Trevelyan, his oldest friend. He becomes a mercenary, selling his military expertise to the highest bidder, though not once does he act against England or her interests.
Now, new intelligence has possibly located Bond in the United States, and Alec is tasked with the mission to bring him back to MI6. But to do so will require a very unique type of field operative -- one Bond will never suspect.
Enter Aidan Green, codename Q.
So satisfying.
a wall, a ceiling by Shinybug
Witcher | Geralt/Jaskier | Mature | 3,770 words
“I hear you,” Geralt murmured, even though his ears were ringing. The distance between them, only a few yards, was an ocean. Jaskier held his traveling bag in his arms and his lute was strapped over his shoulder. He looked like a man with one foot already out the door.
A confession, a realization, longing, and hope.
Nothing more romantic than a love confession.
louder than words by Shinybug
Witcher | Geralt/Jaskier | Teen | 5,600 words
Geralt tries to apologize. Jaskier tries to listen.
Lovely tiny fix-it.
✨Infinite Coffee and Protection Detail by owlet
MCU | Bucky/Steve | Teen | 264,000 words
The mission resets abruptly, from objective: kill to objective: protect
I'm probably the last person to have read this, but in case you've also been skipping it: It's very very good. I don't generally read pre-slash but I kinda didn't want the relationship in this to progress at all? Bucky had what he needed in Steve and I had what I needed as a reader. Devotion trumps sex, imho.
As Is by Arsenic
MCU | Clint/Phil | Explicit | 52,800 words
In a world where people are put on the market as commodities for all sorts of reasons, and SHIELD buys those who might be useful to them, Coulson makes what seems, at the time, to be an ill-advised purchase.
Hurt!Clint
Professional Front by Arsenic
MCU | Clint/Phil | Teen | 11,300 words
When Clint finds out Coulson has been secretly alive for some time and is now the director of SHIELD he's determined that he can be a professional about working with the man.
Coulson's back from the dead. Clint's not gonna let him die again.
Between the Personal and the Real by Arsenic
MCU | Clint/Phil | Explicit | 21,400 words
Clint knows how things work between principals and their obeisants. At least, he's always thought he does.
Forced into a slavery-ish contract
Been Looking At You Forever by torakowalski
MCU | Clint/Phil | Explicit | 18,880 words
Clint and Phil are friends. Friends who have sex. That’s all there is to it. Honestly.
This is cute!
They Say You Can't Put A Number On Love by torakowalski
MCU | Clint/Phil | Teen | 3,000 words
“Look,” Stark says. “I ran a simulation: attributes you have shown most interest in versus likelihood of success. It turns out that there’s a sixty-five percent chance that your type is Director Fury.”
SUPER cute!
stick together and see it through by torakowalski
MCU | Clint/Phil | Teen | 5,680 words
There are many places that Phil would rather be than stuck in a HYDRA base with Tony Stark.
Competent!Coulson, Tony & Phil friendship, so much cute.
I Could Live By The Light Of Your Eyes by nerdwegian
MCU | Clint/Phil | Explicit | 44,550 words
All Clint wanted was to get laid.
(In which Clint meets a mysterious man who may or may not be named Phil, and accidentally stumbles into a big conspiracy where very few things are what they seem to be.)
Fun spy AU.
