The Glyph Monado

Ch. 50: Return to the Owl House

At the Owl House, Luz finally returned.

"I'm home!" Luz said as she pushed the door open, multiple kiss marks on her face from the make out with her two girlfriends.

"Hey, Kid. How was- woah, that's a lot of lipstick." Eda said.

"Hehehe, I know but you should see Boscha." Luz said as she closed the door behind her.

"Yeah, that's already annoying." Eda said, "Now that you're back, tell me about the dino you fought."

"How did you know about that?" Luz asked in surprise.

"It's not hard to find out when something that huge was rampaging through the park." Eda said with a straight face.

"Okay, you got me there." Luz said.

"Now come on. Mama wants a story." Eda said, gesturing Luz to tell her.

"Well, there was a T-Rex and we had to fight it. We got the Blight's time machine and sent it back, that's really it." Luz said.

"Then explain the face full of purple and green lipstick." Eda said, pointing to Luz's kiss mark covered face.

"We relaxed and celebrated. Is that so wrong?" Luz asked her.

"Normally no, but normally, most people don't have two girlfriends." Eda said, "You didn't... you know, did you?"

"Eda!" Luz said, very embarrassed.

"I'm just curious to see if you were safe!" Eda said to her.

"Yeah but... I'm too young for that!" Luz said, redder than a fire hydrant.

"You're 14, right? That seems about the standard age to experiment with your body." Eda said with no shame.

"Eda!"

"Okay!" Eda said, "I'm just saying, you spent a long time at your girlfriends house."

"BUT WE DIDN'T DO THAT!" Luz shouted in embarrassment before she marched up to her room.

"Just a reminder, King has taken over your room." Eda said.

"I KNOW!" Luz shouted back.

Eda sat on the couch, hearing the racket going on upstairs. It wasn't long until King scampered down the stairs and hid in Eda's hair.

"She's insane!"

"She's in love and wields a magic sword....so yeah. She's pretty insane but who isn't these days?" Eda asked as she reached into her hair, pulling out King.

"No! Let me back in! It's safe in there!" King said, struggling in her hand.

"Relax, she's not going to hurt you."

"She pointed it at me and told me to get out!" King said to her.

"Did she pop out the energy blade?" Eda asked him.

"Yes!"

"What color was it?" Eda asked.

"Green!" King shouted.

Eda rubbed her chin for a minute.

"That's the plant mode if my memory is right, it just puts you in vines if you get hit with it." Eda said with a wave of the hand. "Completely non-lethal."

"I'm still not going up there."

Eda rolled her eyes at King while Luz was in her room, wiping her face clean of lipstick marks. It was nice but she couldn't wear it all the time.

"Apart from almost getting eaten, today was a good day. Plus, we got to schedule our swimming pool date. Hopefully that won't end badly." Luz said to herself as she threw her towel aside, "Well, maybe third time is a charm."

It was a private pool date, what could possibly happen a third time to ruin their date? The worst that could happen is an uninvited guest.

"Everything will be fine." Luz said.
