Willuz - Blog Posts

Reposting all the art (that I can currently show off without spoiling unpublished content) that I've commissioned from the talented @gibbledygoo for my Owl House fanfic, Your Touch | Freedom to be Me.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.

Chapter 29

Dear stars. At long last, chapter 29 is finished, clocking in at over 18,300 words. I may have let this chapter get completely away from me. https://archiveofourown.org/works/55091485/chapters/163481692

As usual, time for a little expansion after the Blaze burns out. ^_^ I actually had never intended to write Willuz content, but discovered midway through the scene where they first meet that I had crafted two versions of these characters who needed each other very badly. I take it as a major compliment how many people have admitted that they don't ship Willuz, but love the way I've written them. Of course, the fact that I'd begun this fic for Lumity content and still intend to make it happen does mean something's going to have to change, doesn't it? Maybe folks would be interested in reading along to find out how that develops...

A Kiss Beneath the Mistlefoe

In honor of chapter 13, Willow and Luz share their first kiss beneath the mistlefoe! After hearing how much Luz has gone through to be the person she is today, Willow gives in to her heart's desire. As you can see, her feelings are very much reciprocated. This scene is from my fanfic, Your Touch | Freedom to be Me, part of the Broken and Beloved AU. In this universe, Luz became homeless at an early age and spent several years on the run, only arriving in the Boiling Isles two years after the events of canon had already taken place. So much is different, but some universal constants remain... The artist behind this amazing piece is Gib.
