Sometimes a family is a traumatized teenager who escaped from an evil cult, a gay dad with magic hair who also escaped from the same evil cult, an uncle-dog thing that only speaks in animal noises and also escaped from the same evil cult, a dirty steampunk dad who has a friends to enemies to lovers thing with the previous dad and steampunk dad's three gay children from his previous marriage.

Could you do a amity x fem reader *platonic*

Reader straight up punch odalia then grabs amity while saying “stay away from my child”

And she supports amity in everything she does *amity having anxiety attack whenever she does something wrong or fails, but r wants to show amity the love she deserve and always encourage her even when she suceed or fails*

Amity introduce luz to her and is worried r will hate her but r happily welcome Luz *but she does do the shovel talk. I mean she loves the girl but she protective of her sunshine child*

*this request is totally based on me. I Low-key officially adopted amity as my precious sunshine child that must be protected back in season 2 and I still call her my sunshine child. I even call Hunter sunshine child 2.0. seeing her mom made me upset and I was ready to throw hands at a fictional character😂. I either totally see r either being a mom or older sister figure/mentor to amity*

You remember when the small blight girl had entered you Library asking for a job and all was history.

You had known the blight family since you had gone to school with both her siblings. And your parents went to school with hers so it was easy for her to get a job there.

The two of you would switch shifts or work on the same one. You had even shown her a few secret rooms you found and granting her one. You even fangirl together about Azura together.

But you do remember times where she had tried to give you an attitude and just simply ignored her making her apologize in her own way at the time by talking about Azura and you would just smile and talk with her again after a week with no conversation.

But there are times where you change from the big sister to the mother as Amity walked straight passed you and right away you knew something was wrong. After enough convincing Amity told you about how a girl made her lose that start she has been wearing. "Let me guess you don't want to go home huh?", Amity just looked away from you. From what the twins tell you is that their parents are the worse with a emotionally abusive mother and a father who doesn't pay any attention to his own kids. All you did was sit there and listen on how she vented about her home life. "Can I hug you?", Amity only nodded as you hugged her tight. But sadly you cant really do anything as a teen yourself. But you had always been there when she needed you and you would never complain.

On more of happy note Amity would could a gush about Luz you even took a step back asking if that was the same girl she had tried to fight. But the way she talked about her and you even meeting Luz yourself you knew she was a good match with Amity. You even squealed when you learned that the two are now dating but not without questioning Lux even taking her to the back of the Library calming all you victims are still being looked for.

Even during the fight with Odalia you had been the first to truly attack Odalia wanting to not waste no time on talking to the women. As you attacked her you screamed that this was for Amity and also her siblings I guess.

But you were a bug role on helping Amity and her friends to go save Luz. As when you heard from King that her and the others are now on Earth you started to cry for the facts that she was safe and you might not never see her again.

Buts when they all did come back you had been on of the people Amity tried to look for but had found out you are with her mother as you are "playing" with the collector along with King. Giving Amity more of a reason to fight the collector. She will do anything for her big sister who had helped her and even saved her.

You are just a good sister.

Amity: “Everyone synchronise your watches.”

Edric: “I don't know how to do that.”

Emira: “I don't wear a watch.”

Alador: “Time is a construct.”

after the divorce they had to do a new family portrait. look at alador, washing his hands. hes a whole new man

topic: the blight twins response to child abuse.

tw: mentions of child abuse.

so, it's clear that alador and odalia were both abusive parents in their own ways. while odalia stressed perfection and projected her life onto amity, alador took no part in standing up to his wife and never paid any attention to his children unless they were doing something "wrong."

we can see the effect this has on amity as she constantly makes it clear that her parents expect a lot from her despite her being the youngest. just dying her hair alone was one of her first steps to freeing herself from the things they put her through. even her siblings sometimes added on to their behavior, but they had their responses to their own forms of abuse from their parents as well.

despite edric and emira being twins, it was confirmed in a few posts that emira is the eldest of the three--even then, it would've been obvious considering how she seems to be the one taking care of them at times.

too obvious.

as a result of alador's "absence" and odalia's attention being on the wrong things, emira was forced at a young age to be the one who takes care of her brother and sister. in addition, edric becomes just a little bit of an attention seeker, and desperately needs some kind of reminder that he's being useful to someone, as his parents never gave him those kinds of affirmations.

as teenagers, the twins are going through puberty and odalia insists that they hide their blemishes and unique features with concealment stones. nothing is is wrong with the way emira and edric naturally look─they're growing up. there is a possibility that their parents didn't directly give them concealment stones for this reason, but this doesn't change that there is also a chance that odalia and alador convinced ed and em that they need to "look perfect."

i mean, they don't seem all that nervous about their appearances after taking the stones off for amity to use. emira even tells edric not to pick at his acne or he'd make it worse, for his health and most likely so odalia wouldn't throw a tantrum about appearances.

in "reaching out," emira is shown to have learned plenty of healing spells, even before joining the healing track. she had to have known them for a while, and as the older sibling in my current household, i can take a guess why.

due to the absence of proper parenting from both alador and odalia, emira took on the "parent" role and looked out for her siblings. healing them when they got hurt, giving them attention when it was necessary (mostly for edric considering his need for validation and being useful).

in doing this, she probably hardly made time for herself to pursue her own interests and do the things she likes. in "enchanting grom fright," as they say their fears in unison, edric says "being alone forever." he's gotten close to very few people, and as emira grows overwhelmed from "being the mom" and amity is following odalia's footsteps, he most likely feels like he and his siblings are drifting apart. it's clear that he hardly has any friends, and doesn't have a lot of people to hang out with since he's almost always seen beside his twin.

in the same breath, emira says "being stuck with you forever" to edric not because she doesn't like being around him, but because she'd been his "parental figure" their whole life.

one of my friends in a discord server said that it reminded them of katara and sokka, where sokka says that no matter how much he tries to remember their late mother, he can only picture katara, since she was always the one who cared for him.

in "reaching out," the twins respond with clear distaste when alador says that amity cannot take part in the brawl and that he didn't need her help in dealing with warden wrath. they love their little sister and are very aware of how their parents treat her differently than how they treat them.

i wouldn't put it past them that there were several off-screen and not mentioned occasions where the twins stuck up for each other, but also stood up for amity when their parents were stepping out of line. older siblings tend to be very protective of their younger brothers and/or sisters, even if it means getting in trouble for it. i'm not sure if it's nature for it to be that way, but most of the time it's true (not all of the time.)

despite all this, how broken the family is, emira, edric and amity care so much about each other. i would've loved to see them bounce back from that awful environment, and i really like seeing fan works/theories of their past. if you have anything to add feel free!

The Blights + Onion/Reductress headlines

[sokkas-first-fangirl]

Planning out my Alador-centric fic and struggling to come up with names for Alador’s parents. Right now, my notes just have them listed as “Alador’s parents,” “Mr Blight,” “Mrs Blight.” Anyone have any name suggestions, or any popular name headcanons for them? 🤔

I will say this: they’re going to be absolutely awful people (even if it is just flashbacks)

[wishing-well-art]

I miss them

[Image description by @anistarrose: digital art in a simple cartoony artstyle of Owl House characters in their Season 3 designs.

The first image shows Eda in harpy form, Luz in Titan form, and King hovering in the air. They're pressed shoulder to shoulder, grinning and holding hands. The background is gray and full of stars.

The second image shows the kids in their Halloween costumes, all smiling as they sit down on the ground to rest. Gus, Amity, and Willow are laughing as Luz sits with an arm around Amity, eyes closed and mouth open in relief.

Willow has her feet over one of Luz's legs, and Hunter sits next to her with eyes closed and a calm smile. The background is a desaturated red, with the phases of the moon appearing in yellow over the kids. End description.]
