Back when I used to walk around my college in a corduroy blazer and slacks I didn't call it "dark academia" I called it "professor drag" and the purpose was to smoothly walk into parts of campus I wasn't supposed to access
The way the Owl House writers handle Luz’s sense of guilt is so specific. She’s been nothing but a good influence and, in some cases, a literal lifesaver in the lives of all her friends and new found family, but she can’t see it in Thanks To Them. It doesn’t even occur to her, because depression is a bitch, yes, but also because being the weird kid with weird interests who maybe doesn’t fit in but who’s optimistic and exuberant and who tries and tries to make friends but just can’t sits in the heart a certain way.
There’s every chance that Luz internalized the idea that since she’s common denominator between all the times she either couldn’t succeed in school or couldn’t make friends, there’s something about her that’s just broken. And even though the Boiling Isles gave her a chance to excel, to find something she’s good at, to make friends and new family, to find people who love her and think she’s amazing, she hasn’t let go of the idea that she’s the problem. It’s too ground in. Eda was able to open up a bit, accept her curse, start talking to her family again, and be okay with being openly affectionate; King was able to grow out of being a little tyrant and learn more about where he came from; Willow was able to come out of her shell; Gus was able to find people who wouldn’t take advantage of him; Hunter’s alive and was able to get out of a horribly abusive situation; or that Amity—Amity!—was able to thrive and start being the person she wants to be and gained the courage to stand up to her parents—all because of Luz in one way or another. But all Luz can see are the ways in which the people she loves are hurting, ways which have almost nothing to do with her, and because she never had the chance to let go of the idea that she’s the problem she assumes it’s all her fault. It’s a hard mindset to break out of without help, it’s a realistic mindset for someone like her to have, and it is so, so sad.
I continue to be...speechless. I'm just so in awe of this show. These siblings will have a lot to talk about

EVERYONE QUICK describe your oc story in the worst way possible
Did I daydream this, or was there a website for writers with like. A ridiculous quantity of descriptive aid. Like I remember clicking on " inside a cinema " or something like that. Then, BAM. Here's a list of smell and sounds. I can't remember it for the life of me, but if someone else can, help a bitch out <3
