Hey, everyone, and happy holidays! Just dropping this post to let everyone know that a) I am still alive and b) I still have every intention of continuing my liveblog once I am able. Current limiting factors include:
-a lot of personal stuff going on lately (some of which is good but keeping me busy, some of which is very much not good and thus making me sad)
-the computer I have been stubbornly insisting on using for all liveblog-related stuff up until now has. uh. not been cooperating a whole lot for most of this year, and it's gotten to the point where I may actually have to do something about if I want to continue blogging. (in all fairness, this is a problem that actually shouldn't be that hard to solve in terms of the liveblog alone; I just haven't gotten around to doing it yet)
Theoretically, the next week or two should actually be a good time to do a bit of blogging, but I have very little energy right now and thus cannot make any promises. But I will try! And at the very least, I will continue to keep you all updated - as always, thank you for your patience!
#wingsy liveblogs#maybe I should make a tag for update posts... but then I would have to go back and tag all past update posts#possibly something that would be better to do once I get back to being more active again

Hey again! How's it been? Hoping life's been nice to you, school and depression have been kicking my ass 😅 but I'm finally fighting back! 💪
Hi, and apologies for the late reply here! Life's been giving me a rough time too (hence the, uhh, notable lack of liveblogging... and posting in general...) so I can very much relate. I'm really struggling in the time management department over here, which is frustrating because I very much would like to get back to doing a whole lot of things (especially liveblogging!!) that I've been neglecting as of late.
I can't make any promises, but I'm hoping to get my schedule under control soon? Hopefully?? Maybe??? Possibly????
In the meantime, I hope things go well for you!
#wingsy liveblogs#ask#thanks for the ask!#speaking of time - we're almost back around to one of my siblings' birthdays again!#on the 23rd!#except we're both so ridiculously busy that we're probably not going to be able to do a whole lot to celebrate it#such is the college life#...also this is the first time I've made a post with the new tumblr layout and I hate everything about it#turn it baaack

*boops you* boop! ((hoping your night/day is going well and that you get a tasty treat <333))
Awww, thank you!!
Apologies for the somewhat late response; the past few days have actually been rather stressful and I've been struggling a bit with various things. I'm still planning on resuming the liveblog as soon as I'm able, that hasn't changed, but the definition of "as soon as I'm able" keeps shifting. Hopefully not for too much longer though!

Are you alive?
I am indeed! Apologies for the concern and also the delay in resuming the episode; I've had some unexpected obstacles pop up. The main factors involved are:
I've had some Life Things come up over the past week or so that I was hoping I wouldn't have to deal with for another couple of weeks. Once I've figured out how to balance my time a bit better this should stop being a major issue, but it's causing me a bit of trouble at the moment.
I'm experiencing some minor technical difficulties related to my liveblogging setup. With any luck this shouldn't actually pose a problem in the long run, but it's throwing me off a little right now, especially on top of the other stuff.
With that being said, I'm still aiming to continue the liveblog as soon as I get a good opportunity! It's taking longer than I'd like, but I will make it happen eventually.
#wingsy liveblogs#ask#there have been a number of occasions over the past few days where I set aside time for blogging#and then something came up to stop me or I couldn't get myself to focus#I'll get there! I think I just need a little bit more time

Today on “where the heck is the liveblog it’s been an entire week,” poor time management and the irresistible desire to do nothing but sleep all day continue to be formidable foes.
and this is why King is the most relatable character-
Despite this setback, I still intend to return to the episode as soon as I can pull myself together! And until then I’ll be keeping you all updated as best I can. Once again, I appreciate everyone’s patience!
So! At present, I’m aiming to provide update posts whenever I can’t manage some actual blogging time, so as to avoid a repeat of the past several months. Time will tell how effective this tactic is, but for now, here’s your semi-regularly scheduled update:
While my distractibility is partly to blame for the delay in blogging, the most prominent issue at present is that I’ve been attempting to smack my unfortunately deeply broken sleep schedule into shape for the past few days, and blogging sessions have been a tragic casualty of battle. I’m hoping to watch a bit more within the next day or two, though, once I get an opportunity at a reasonable time!
…it remains to be seen, however, whether or not my efforts thus far have actually accomplished anything regarding the aforementioned time management issues. Evidence suggests probably not.
#wingsy liveblogs#wingsy watches owl house#plus there are a few other things going on in my life that I've got to take care of and I worry about having enough time for them too#hmm... maybe it would help to set a designated length of time in the episode that I'll cover per session#just while I have time constraints to worry about#like... one or two minutes or so#under normal circumstances I prefer to feel out the timing as I go but this might work better for right now#also raises the possibility that I'd pause at some really weird points#but that might not entirely be a bad thing? it'd be funny at the very least

Lactose intolerance and dairy allergies are different!
Lactose intolerance is well. An intolerance to Lactose (or is it lactase? One of them is the sugar, one is the enzyme you can lack which makes you unable to digest the sugar)
Dairy allergy is well. An allergy to dairy, and all the dangers and unpleasantness that that brings
Also you can have dairy with lactose intolerance if you're willing to face the consequences (just digestive issues), but you shouldn't eat things your allergic to at all really since you might have a bad reaction (like not being able to breathe).
(In reference to this post.)
Thanks for the clarification, you guys! So I was definitely way off on that one. Good to know!
And this definitely adds some helpful context to Luz counting her lactose intolerance as a greatest fear: if it's unpleasant but not exactly deadly for her to consume something with lactose in it, then it does put that fear more or less on the same level as the others she listed. While there is a bit of a difference between "causes extreme physical discomfort", "causes mental discomfort but only if you're on the internet" and "existential horror", none of them quite qualify for a greatest fear.
...though it's possible that there really is someone out there in the world who does fear one of those things more than anything else. You never know!
#wingsy liveblogs#ask#replies and reblogs#wingsy watches owl house#owls ep 16#mentioned this one to my siblings and they were like 'well obviously they're different things!'#sometimes I am not smart. which is more often than not if I'm being honest#so I do quite appreciate the informative messages!#also as much as tumblr has made some weird changes lately I do like that you can now edit tags#finally: a tumblr update that makes things more convenient#it's already a bit late for blogging tonight but I'll be resuming soon!

Ah, so that’s what the twins are here for. I’m guessing this was what Amity meant by training, so good thinking on her part! If Luz actually knew what her greatest fear was, this would be a good way to prepare.
That being said, Luz certainly has an... interesting idea of what a greatest fear is. To be fair, though, food problems can get pretty dangerous.
...hey, wasn’t Edric lactose intolerant too?
So I went back to check, and Emira says he’s allergic to dairy, which I think is more or less the same thing? Feel free to correct me if it’s not, since I’m not too knowledgeable on that topic.
Anyway, that tangent aside...
Thank you, Amity! The question has at last been dropped.
I do think Luz is actively avoiding introspection to some extent and just hasn’t looked deep enough yet, and it’s possible she might have a proper answer if she did. But is she willing to do that at this point..?
Aaaaand it’s getting a little late, so we shall find out next time on Wingsy Watches The Owl House, Episode 16: The Unending Liveblog. Until then, everyone, and goodnight!
#wingsy liveblogs#wingsy watches owl house#owls ep 16#Luz's current tactic for dealing with her problems appears to be 'just don't think about it'#which... relatable#but not helpful in this situation#also Emira's definitely wearing a slightly different outfit this episode... hmmm

You know, I wonder if these two ever had to do the Grom fight thing? Though if only one person is chosen per year, it would probably be just one of them.
Also, is that a colouring mistake, or is Emira’s outfit a slightly different colour than usual? That’s interesting, especially given her next line.
Ah, the eternal struggle of being a sibling. It’s probably worse when you’re twins, though!
Oh hey, looks like Luz did come prepared! At the very least, she’s put some amount of thought into this.
#wingsy liveblogs#wingsy watches owl house#owls ep 16#I wonder if those are their actual worst fears or just what they think they are#which comes back to the question of how do you even define a greatest fear? how does Amity know what hers is??#I mean one way to find out is to go up against Grom and see what it does I guess#but I imagine that if Amity had already done it before it wouldn't be quite so difficult to do it again#(because everyone else would already know what her greatest fear was)

RIP Hooty
Now that’s the real question, isn’t it? Does Luz have an answer..?
Meanwhile, Hooty lives, bearing his tragic scars of (dis)honour. But his noble quest to annoy everyone in his vicinity to the point of violence continues...
#wingsy liveblogs#wingsy watches owl house#owls ep 16#why is tumblr giving me a badge for 100 posts when I already have more than 1600 on this blog what is happening#also hey Amity's siblings how've you two been doing

Everyone on the island, huh? So that's... basically everyone in this dimension? Does that include, like, the as-yet unseen Emperor and his buddies too?? Or is there a limit to which people could be affected and Amity's just phrasing it this way to get her point across?
At the very least, it doesn't sound as if Grom is in the business of killing people, but this sounds just as horrifying if you think about it enough. Unless Grom eventually got bored or something, that would basically be an eternal and presumably unstoppable nightmare for everyone involved. Fun!
#wingsy liveblogs#wingsy watches owl house#owls ep 16#do... do photo posts not work anymore??#it appears that tumblr has changed its interface since I was last doing this and it's rather confusing#tragically it seems Amity is already living out her worst nightmare on this day#I fear it won't get much better either

And now, time to get back to blogging! It’ll just be a short session for tonight, so I can ease back into it (again). Let’s see how this goes!
Quick update for everyone: I have been feeling a little sick for the past few days, so the liveblog of Episode 16 is briefly on hold until I’m either better or at least feel up to continuing. It shouldn’t be too long, though I’ll keep everyone updated! The source of the sickness isn’t anything to be concerned about either, so worry not!
#wingsy liveblogs#wingsy watches owl house#owls ep 16#already a little sleepy but the longer I wait the harder it is to regain momentum#better a little bit of liveblogging than none at all methinks!

Update for the update: I’ve been feeling better for... quite a few days now, but that brief time I was unwell kind of drained me of motivation and has thrown me off with pretty much everything I was doing before then. However, I’m not going to let that stop me for long, and shall resume liveblogging very soon!

You raise some good points! It’s quite plausible that Luz knows her mom’s schedule well enough to be able to sneak in and out while she’s not there, considering she seems to have a lot more stuff with her now than she would reasonably have thought to bring with her when she first left for camp.
That said, the second option isn’t entirely out of question, either, considering she was absolutely carrying all those fireworks in her bag in Episode 1 and presumably had the Azura poster in it as well, since it was up the next morning, and I’m still not entirely sure how all that fit in there!
Amity’s day just keeps getting worse, doesn’t it.
But the real question here is, can Hooty even be destroyed..?
Ah, of course - Amity’s too responsible to leave Luz to handle the fight on her own, not to mention she probably knows Luz well enough by now to guess that she’s completely unprepared.
Still, unless I’m missing something, Grom is going to be happening on the same day, which means that any training efforts are likely going to be about as effective as Eda’s last-minute training session with Luz in Episode 5. Which is to say, they’re probably not going to accomplish much with such little time.
Luz: >:3
So that’s the otter suit of legend, is it? How in the world did she bring that over with her?? How much stuff did she bring???
#wingsy liveblogs#replies and reblogs#wingsy watches owl house#owls ep 16#this kind of thing can generally be excused as 'cartoon logic'#so I'm not too concerned about it#but it's still fun to ponder the possibilities

It's not easy telling your mother that you have isekai yourself to another dimension, I guess.
Haha, yeah, there's that element to it too! Even if she can go back at any time, that's certainly got to be be a stressful thing for a (good) parent to learn about. Maybe Luz herself isn't even sure how she'd handle it..?
And of course, the longer Luz waits to tell her the worse it's going to get. Even if she were to get back home safely without her mom ever finding out where she really went, which I don't think is very likely to happen, the secret would probably keep haunting her until she came clean. (Which probably wouldn't be that long, considering how much she's struggling to keep up the falsehood even while not being around her mom every day.)
#wingsy liveblogs#ask#wingsy watches owl house#owls ep 16#feeling a teensy bit off tonight but I should have more time for blogging tomorrow!#also: the Madoka-related asks may have to wait a little longer#but I will get to them!#next day update: unfortunately I am not feeling any better today#but I'll resume as soon as I feel up to it!
