Boscha brought the kit down to them and started to open it. Luz and Amity waited in the den as Boscha came down with the kit, ignoring her own injury to tend to Amity's black eye. Luz however, noticed it.
"Boscha-"
"Don't ask."
Boscha took out some ointment with healing properties and moved to Amity, slowly moving the ice pack away.
"Hold still, this may sting a bit." She said before applying some of it around her eye. "It'll help reduce the swelling more after the ice."
Amity flinched at the sting but stayed still. Luz walked away to wipe the blood off her sword. Though most of it was gone thanks to her energy blade, small flickers stained the rest of the Monado and Luz didn't want that as a reminder of what she did. Even if she was angry and it was justified, she felt a LITTLE guilty over cutting off Odalia's hand.
'At least I told her how long she has to get it reattached.' Luz thought as she was in the fancy kitchen and grabbed a dish rag, already wet.
"That woman better not mess with Amity again."
Luz had instinctively switched to fire mode after she finished cleaning the Monado, giving it an instant heat dry.
"There, that works well." Luz said, walking back to the den.
She saw Boscha holding a sleeping Amity. Her eyes are patched up and some small bruises were covered in bandages as well. Boscha's hand was also bandaged, most likely at Amity's request. Luz sat down next to Boscha.
"You know we're going to have to deal with Odalia again." Boscha said.
"I know."
"And do you know what I want to do when we do" Boscha asked again.
"I have a good idea." Luz said.
"Then are you going to stop me?" Boscha asked her.
".....A part of me wants to but another part wants to join." Luz said to Boscha. "I know Odalia is a terrible woman but she's still Amity's mother, how could we possibly take the life of someone she's related too?"
"Well, what do you want then? For Amity to do it herself? Because I'm almost finished with her weapon and armor." Boscha revealed.
"What?"
"I'm making a weapon for her." Boscha said, "It isn't fair for her to not have one when we do."
"You've really taken this weapon maker thing seriously." Luz said.
"Of course I have. I want to surpass my great X4 grandfather one day and making weapons now is a good start." Boscha said.
"Want to show me what it looks like?" Luz asked.
"If you can pry this girl off me without waking her, then sure."
"You know you're both really loud, right?" Amity said, opening her eyes to them.
"So, you heard everything we were saying?" Boscha asked.
"Yes, I did and I want to focus more on my weapon than what to do about my mother right now." Amity said as she let go of Boscha, pushing herself up.
"I wanted it to be a surprise." Boscha pouted.
Amity kissed her cheek.
"I'll act surprised." Amity said.
Boscha smiled at her as the three of them rose from the couch and headed up to her bedroom/workshop.
"Well, here it is." Boscha said, motioning toward a half finished sword.
Looking up to the sword, Luz and Amity saw it was sort of a broadsword with a glyph carved into the base of the guard. Luz had never seen that glyph before and leaned close to inspect it.
"What glyph is that?"
"Oh that? It's an old abomination glyph from my grandfather's notebook. Looks like you weren't the only one to experiment with the glyphs" Boscha said to her.
"An Abomination Glyph!?" Luz said.
"I thought you said there were only four glyphs, Luz." Amity said to her.
"We yes but I can experiment with them and create combinations for new glyph effects." Luz said as she pulled out some paper, drawing the abomination glyph. "I never thought of this one before or can think of a combo to make it. Maybe it's an artificial glyph?
"Who knows, there isn't much about it in the notebook." Boscha said.
"Just the symbol itself."
"But does it work?" Amity asked.
"Well the swords unfinished, but you can try it out." Boscha said, handing her the unfinished blade.
Taking the unfinished weapon, Amity gave it a few swings to get the heaviness if it before testing out the glyph.
'Luz usually pushes them, so...' Amity thought as she pushed the glyph on the cross guard.
The sword started glowing and then... stops glowing.
"Well, I said it was unfinished." Boscha said.
"I suppose but it makes me curious to what will happen when it's finished." Amity said as she gave the unfinished weapon back to Boscha.
"Well, I'm going to see what this "artificial" glyph can do." Luz said as she held up the drawn abomination glyph.
"Yeah, you're not doing that in my room." Boscha said.
Luz looked around the room, seeing it was already a bit messy and her using the glyph would just make more of a mess.
"Okay, let's go outside." Luz said, grabbing both their hands.
