Pov you look in the mirror and finally see yourself

"I'm the King of Demon Island and I can have hair as long as I want!" Eda leaned out the door to the lounge, wearing a scowl and an apron which read Over Thirty and Still Flirty in a saucy red font. "Yeah, but can the King of Demon Island reach the freezer to get his own popsicles? Checkmate, monarchists." - Six Tropes, chapter 2

Just a fellow person who hyperfixates on things, and I've watched through the series and pored over the wiki pretty obsessively while writing my fic. ^_^

questions I still have about The Owl House that I might find in a rewatch but would love if people just know

SPOILERS AHEAD

• so.... why did Philip suddenly turn on Evelyn and his brother?

• what is a Grimwalker? how does that work?

• what is Hootys backstory? was he always part of the house?? did Eda just FIND the house one day???

• why was Tibbles in the "bye" scene? Tibbles sucks

• Why was Liliths hair cut?

• so does King know more about his future now? is their information on Titans all flawed due to Belos?

• how did Evelyn get to the human realm? what's the science behind that?

• were the hour long specials supposed to be a season each?

• is King able to give Luz some of his power sometimes? or is Titan Luz a one and done?

of course this isn't everything and they're not really articulated well tbh (happy 420 is why lol)

if you have ANY sort of answer or thought I'd love to hear it. I've heard there's a large fanfiction community and I'm already a dedicated morning mark fan.

im for sure still in mourning for what the show was supposed to be, especially since I only saw S3 last night.

idk how to tie up this post tbh. so imma just leave and go look for more merch on etsy

so…. why did Philip suddenly turn on Evelyn and his brother?

Hollow Mind offers a few tantalizing hints in several of the background portraits that were (from what I gather) deemed a bit too grisly for Disney's taste to put front and center for the kids. The most pertinent one would be this:

By all indications, upon discovering that Evelyn was pregnant with a human-witch child, Philip plunged into a madness which led him to carve glyphs into his own flesh. Incidentally, storyboards for Thanks to Them indicate that Evelyn taught Caleb glyphs. While Philip claims to have found them in innocuous locations in the same way Luz did, it's not clear whether this means he, Caleb and Evelyn were on the Boiling Isles for some time before the worst happened, or whether he simply lied about where he learned them and in fact copied them from his brother.

When he saw what his brother had done to himself, Caleb tried to placate him, but Philip drew a knife and the two fought, with Caleb eventually succumbing. Evelyn attacked Philip, but he was able to escape. By all indications, Evelyn was an ancestor of the Clawthorne family, making their descendants some small fraction human. This has a curious impact on the next question: > what is a Grimwalker? how does that work?

A grimwalker, as Belos says, is "a better version of an old friend." The ingredient to focus on in particular is "bone of ORTET" - in horticulture, an ortet is the parent plant from which clones are generated. I think in this context, the implication is that grimwalkers are clones of a specific person - in this case, created from Caleb Wittebane using his bones.

In Elsewhere and Elsewhen, we get a glimpse of an earlier laboratory and the bones upon the table, directly beneath papers which echo the illustrations in the book, appear humanoid.

The fun part is that if Hunter is a clone created from Caleb's remains, and Caleb's offspring is part of the Clawthorne family, then Hunter and Eda are technically related. > what is Hootys backstory? was he always part of the house?? did Eda just FIND the house one day??? We've never heard a full story for Hooty, but there are some hints Dana Terrace has dropped which paint an unclear, but curious picture. First, the eye on the door is, in fact, the Titan's own missing eye. Second, the little worm coming out of his empty eye socket may very well be Hooty. Therefore, it's not unreasonable to conclude that Hooty is a form of demonic tapeworm which infested the Titan himself and gained some sort of power from doing so. Dana said last night at Weebcon that Hooty and the Titan have a symbiotic relationship, and that Hooty is some form of parasitic worm, so this seems to be about as confirmed as we can hope for at this point in time. The tower adjacent to the house used to belong to Dell Clawthorne as he mentions in the B side of Elsewhere and Elsewhen. My theory, given the eccentric nature of the house, is that Eda constructed it herself next to the tower using magic. That might explain why no two parts of it seem to fully convene into a coherent whole. It does seem like Philip must have built the portal, given the detailed images of it in his diary and the way he was able to reconstruct the portal when it was destroyed, but it's never been clear how he managed to lose it in order for Eda to find it in her backyard.

why was Tibbles in the "bye" scene? Tibbles sucks

Ah, blame Luz. She's always willing to try seeing the better in people. The fact that she was unwilling to try giving Belos a second chance really says something for how far he went beyond the moral event horizon...

Why was Liliths hair cut?

In Keeping Up A-fear-ances, Gwen mentions Lilith dyed her hair to make it look the way it does throughout the first season. After she takes on half of Eda's curse, her hair begins to gray as accelerated aging takes hold on her as well. My theory is that she cuts her hair in order to make it easier to re-dye it her natural color.

so does King know more about his future now? is their information on Titans all flawed due to Belos?

I suspect King doesn't know much more than we do. Knowledge about the titans seems to be pretty scant. The Titan Trappers may know more, but I think it was implied that a chunk of their knowledge was from the Collector communicating with them, and he indicates that they "started acting weird" at some point. My gut feeling is that many generations passed and the Collector wasn't really paying attention to which Titan Trappers he was speaking to at any given time, so the process of "getting all weird" probably involves them having made the Collector their deity and bad actors in this religion twisting it to their own ends. Looking at you, Bill. But it's possible the Collector was able to give King better information that we, the audience, weren't able to see because of the time constraints. I've often wondered about the development of King's powers, myself. How does he figure out what his glyphs look like? Is it an internal feeling, or can he actually draw them and then imbue them so that any drawing becomes a glyph? We may never know.

how did Evelyn get to the human realm? what's the science behind that?

This part is very unclear, but Hollow Mind gives us this:

This seems to indicate that Caleb and Evelyn were able to use the archway in the graveyard to travel between realms, and because of the owl cork used to seal the tube of titan blood hidden in said graveyard, I suspect Evelyn had a cache of titan's blood that she used to travel between worlds. It apparently did used to be more common than it is in the modern day, but was mined out and has become scarce since then.

were the hour long specials supposed to be a season each?

The team learned of the third season's shortening between Yesterday's Lie and Follies at the Coven Day Parade, so I'm not sure what the plans were for the third season. Dana did say just yesterday that she had wanted the third season to go into the history of the previous Golden Guards, as well as have more in-depth interactions between Luz and Belos.

is King able to give Luz some of his power sometimes? or is Titan Luz a one and done?

It's a good question. I would expect that King would eventually have that power as well, but perhaps he wouldn't get that much power until many centuries down the line. It may also be the case that a titan can't give someone this sort of power without sacrificing themselves in the process. Fanfiction has explored this in any number of ways, from having some of the Titan's power continue to live on in Luz to eventually having King be able to transform her for short stints of time. Moringmark, naturally, has played with this. Anywho, that's all the answers I can substantiate! Dana has kept a lot of things to herself in the event that Disney ever lets her make more content (a graphic novel has been discussed, and Disney is currently refusing to let anyone do it).

Cluster of request i took (from twitter ew) for owl house 2 years after ending anniversary! Loved doing these so much!

Six Tropes: Chapter 2!

The second chapter of Six Tropes Walk into a Coffeehouse is live! The coffee's hot and plot's starting to plot. Actually, it's not just the coffee that's hot, and that's half the problem!

https://archiveofourown.org/works/64465600/chapters/166573918

The first half is made by @moringmark & I drew the last half, I added 2 bonus drawings at the bottom bc I had fun with this mermaid AU! 

Anyways go check him out, he’s awesome :D

THE BESTIESS!!! they are like the sassy makeover friend group.

the new girl at gravesfield high

Reposting all the art (that I can currently show off without spoiling unpublished content) that I've commissioned from the talented @gibbledygoo for my Owl House fanfic, Your Touch | Freedom to be Me. The timeline has been altered. Luz Noceda is sixteen and has been homeless for five years. Driven by a new resolution each day to survive, she perseveres through loneliness and trauma, even as the shadows behind her eyes continue to lengthen. When an impossible door offers an escape from a lifetime of horrors, the fact that she's entered a realm of demons offers no deterrence: she has found a home at last. It has been roughly two years since the Day of Unity collapsed uneventfully and wild witches are still on the decline as the Emperor's Coven gathers its strength and consolidates the once untamed eastern lands. Edalyn Clawthorne, the self-proclaimed most powerful witch on the Boiling Isles and accursed Owl Lady, is about to find a surprise waiting in the market that will change her life forever. Written as if for a new audience, this all-original story gives a fresh perspective of the Boiling Isles. Carrying her trauma like a constant companion, one PTSD-stricken teenager sets about changing the world one imperfectly mended heart at a time. Even for long-time fans of the series, nothing will be quite like how you remember it, except that our protagonist still changes the lives of everyone she touches.

The noise I just made...

This one's going to wreck me every time I encounter it.

amity if she had met titan luz

a drawing request from twitter and an idea I’d had since seeing the finale two years ago, as well as my very first time drawing titan luz

Sometimes I think about how Luz and Hunter are so protective of their friends and how Luz can be reckless about her own health to help others and how Hunter's the oldest and I cry.

Usually I don't post my fanart for other fandoms on here mainly because I used to care a lot about numbers but I thought 'hey why not' and here we are!

Also in case you couldn't tell Luz and Hunter are my favorite characters

For anyone who read Six Tropes, this is precisely what Luz is seeing at the end of the first chapter (minus the pointed ears). XD

I based this on a comic I saw on tumblr and obviously on the characters and setting of the "Pretty Pretty Please I Don't Want To Be A Magical Girl" pilot animatic by Kiana Khansmith.

(For some reason YouTube links don’t get traction on tumblr, so let’s see if this works!)

The Battle

It's been 2 years since it ended, but it's still the best

Someday I plan to write a short anthology of scenes that are just various uncommon pairings, like Skarlow and Veemity...

Dear friend who’s reading this: If you don’t ship them, that’s ok, just don’t comment about it or start a ship wars with other fans. Everyone has the right to have their own likes and enjoy the varied content offered by the community, thank you.

¡Espero les guste chicos, los amo mucho!

Two years ago, the show that meant everything to me ended. I'm still not okay

“Rivals“

Some of my beta art works. i had more on my instagram and twitter (i’ll upload it here too if you want to)

Espero les guste, chicos. ¡los amo mucho!

i imagine luz had a bad time during the TTT timeskip trying to keep up with school while hosting 5 people and being very depressed

Six Tropes Walk into a Coffeehouse

And the first chapter of my next side project is live! A humorous (for me) fic paying tribute to the tropes of fanfiction glory. There'll a fake relationship, an amnesic protagonist, a coffeehouse, a road trip, enemies to friends to maybe something more, Luz gets to say "fuck" as a treat, and maybe even a hotel room—gasp—with only one bed. https://archiveofourown.org/works/64465600/chapters/165532393

Chapter 30 of Your Touch is live!

This one made me very happy, even if it still didn't accomplish what I wanted it to. But... I think maybe next chapter? Or so I keep saying. https://archiveofourown.org/works/55091485/chapters/165428170

Last pages of my sketchbook are finally done. Time to buy a new one!

And all my coloured pencils dried up and died except orange. *weeps* I'm sorry Gus, I drowned you in orange.

I’ve been seeing some owl house au things :]

Wanted to give it a try.

I scratched a story into a piece of slate using a metal stick I bought at a museum of education history. One of these:
