🥞 Lumpy Flapjacks 🥞

Summary: Kid Caleb wakes up early to surprise his little brother with his favorite breakfast dish.

Original headcanon

Ao3 version

Enjoy!

Breakfast, the first meal consumed before starting the day, was regarded by both Wittebane brothers as the most important.

There was never a breakfast food that the boys didn't enjoy eating, primarily because most of them could be eaten with jam or butter.

As the sky warmed up and shone with sunrise one morning, Philip and Caleb were in their beds, dreaming and sleeping peacefully.

Philip was dreaming about walking and talking breakfast foods with silly smiley faces and pencil-thin arms and legs.

He and the foods were riding horses and donkeys together.

Meanwhile, Caleb's dream consisted of him getting the chance to guzzle down a cup of rum for breakfast every morning like a strong and heroic grown-up.

Being kind and generous, the blonde chooses to share some of his liquor with his favorite woodland birds.

A brown eye suddenly opens as it scans the bedroom before shifting its attention to Philip.

As both of his eyes open, a small smile begins to spread on Caleb's face as he sees his brother sleeping so soundly.

Without making a single noise, the blonde slowly slips out of bed before quietly tiptoeing to the door.

Once he's outside of the room, he sends another gentle smile to Philip and silently shuts the door.

...

After an hour or so had passed, Philip's lids slowly opened.

The brunette slowly arose from his covers and sat up.

"Ah-hhaaa," Philip yawned sluggishly, extending his arms out in a stretch.

While gradually wiping the sleep from his eyes with his arm, his small nose was immediately greeted by a wonderful aroma wafting from downstairs.

The smell was a combination of batter and melted butter coming together and creating a delicious baby.

A small gasp left a sparkly-eyed Philip as he quickly jumped out of bed and rushed to the door.

He was eager to get to the dining room and dig into breakfast.

...

Caleb heard footsteps hurrying downstairs.

When the oldest spun around, he saw his baby brother standing at the kitchen entrance with the biggest smile on his face.

"Oh, good morning, Philip!" Caleb chuckled.

Walking over to the dining room table, the blonde transferred the delicious surprise he prepared for Philip onto a wooden plate on the table from the black cast iron skillet he was holding.

"I made you breakfast," he told the younger with a smile.

Philip zipped over to the table. "You made pancakes!" Philip cheered as he quickly took his seat.

"Yes, I did!" Caleb laughed, but his smile quickly became nervous.

"I apologize for the lumps that are in them."

"Huh?" Philip took note of the massive amount of bumpy clumps that were in the two pancakes on his plate.

"Oh..."

"I know," Caleb spoke quietly, looking down.

"If you don't like them, I can always--"

Philip dove face first into his plate and quickly ripped a spongy piece from one of his pancakes with his teeth.

This caught Caleb off guard.

After chewing, Philip swallowed, humming with delight.

"Caleb!" Philip exclaimed excitedly.

"These taste amazing! You're the bestest pancake maker in the whole world!"

In the whole world?

Caleb's face lit up when he heard those words.

"Really, Pip?"

Philip nodded and took another large bite out of his pancake without using the fork or knife in front of him.

Caleb chuckled bashfully.

"Thank you, Pip."

The blonde smiled softly.

"That's some very high praise," he whispered.

For Caleb, it was the highest honor to see Philip enjoy his lumpy cooking that was carefully prepared with lots of flour and love.

do you think she ever blamed herself

and i dont just mean that she wasnt strong enough to protect or save him, do you think she ever blamed herself for his fate because of who she is??

do you think she started to think the people of gravesfield were right

that she is a horrible witch who STOLE HIM. maybe she told herself that if they never met he wouldve stayed in the human realm, albeit unhappy, but he would spare the agony of being murdered by his own brother

do you think sometimes a small guilt ridden part of her hated herself for being a witch

[qcoded]

saw that one pic of Trisha Paytas and Gabbie Hana and went "THAT'S THEMMMMM"

my favorite brand of these two is The Collector just harassing Belos LOL

(Tap/click for better quality)

I don't know why I imagined Belos saying that, probably just because of name association with Hunter, but anyways, here's a silly.

Do not repost/reupload my work, but reblogs are appreciated.

There is one interesting article about why Belos creates grimwalkers if he knows that they will betray him. I translated it so that you could read it.

The main traumatic event in Philip's life is the murder of Caleb. It was such a strong shock for Philip that he remembers it to this day and plays it over and over again. In principle, this is what some traumatized people do - they systematically repeat some terrible event. Some details may change (for example, now Philip the elder), but the main thing remains the same - betrayal and subsequent murder.  By betrayal, Belos can understand a vast layer of things, whether it's an escape, a relationship with a witch, an assassination attempt, an attempt to thwart his plans, joining the side of witches or abandoning the side of witch hunters. Moreover, Philip is not just waiting for betrayal, he is doing everything to be betrayed.

He opens Hunter's eyes too abruptly and unexpectedly to the truth, which completely contradicts his world picture, and thus causes dissonance. Hunter was scared, his Uncle’s motives have not been explained to him in an accessible language, he has not been prepared in advance. Hunter was purposefully pushed into the path of betrayal. Belos revealed the truth in this way, not because he is Big Evil Guy or so naive that he did not even think that Hunter might not take his side (after killing 50 traitor grimwalkers, yeah, yeah), but because he wanted to stroke his mental trauma. To replay the events of the past in a new wrapper, let's say. The reason is not hate, hostility or bad temper. The reason is the desire to feel the strongest pain of a deep trauma, which at the same time gives the greatest relief. Because it is clear and familiar. Everything is as it should be. The author of article was thinking about a variant of events in which Hunter does not escape to Hexside after leaving Phillip's mindscape, but returns to his uncle. One of the possible developments may be the murder of Hunter, because "how is it that he did not betray and did not stroke the mental trauma." And this can become another, already newer and unexpected trauma — the murder of someone who did not betray and remained faithful to the end.

Ooo, I see!

That is interesting, Anon. 👀

Thank you for the translation.

Do you have a link to the article?

I'm interested in finding out if the author has written more character analyses.

( @pokeycub and @talisman975 . )

WOOWOO happy 2 years since thanks to them came out :D

colour coded characters go brr

[qcoded]

Remembered that Philip/Belos canonically can draw so. I'd imagine in the early days Collector would ask him to draw a ton of shit HAHAHHA

[squids-and-waffles7]

the fate of the boiling isles depends on them... (separate images under cut!)

[ ID: 3 digital illustrations of Luz, Caleb, Eda, Evelyn, King, and a young Philip from the Owl House in gif form. The gif makes it look like the characters are spinning in a clock-wise motion. The first image is of Luz and Caleb. Caleb is on the left, looking like how he appears in For the Future. He is facing to the left, arms at his side, with the knife sticking out of his chest. He is frowning, and his eyes are blocked out with the words, “Watching”. To the right is Luz, dressed the same as she is seen in FtF. Her one arm is up, grabbing her hat, while the other rests on her chest. She is facing right, and has a worried expression on her face. In between the two and in the middle of the image are the words, ““A human.”

The second image is of Evelyn and Eda. Evelyn to the back left, with her back facing the viewer. Her cloak covers most of her, with the only thing exposed being her hand clutching her arm and her face, a tear running down her cheek. Her eyes are blacked out with the word “and”. Eda is to the front left, in her FtF design. She is looking to the right, a worried expression on her face. She is clutching her amputated arm and little feathers are popping up on her cheek and arm. In between the two are the words, “A cursed witch.”

The third image is of King and a young Philip Wittebane. King is on the left side, in his FtF design, clutching his stuffy Francois and looking over his shoulder to the left, seemingly worried. To the right is Philip, in his kid design as seen in Hollow Mind. He is looking over his shoulder with his mask on and a toy wooden sword in hand. His eyes are blacked out by the word “dreaming”. In between the two are the words, “And a little king.” End ID. ]
