LOVERS? EDA X FEM READER REMAKE

Elsewhere and Elsewhen

Luz is inside her room at the Owl House. She is sitting on the floor going through different books. She then notices her echo mouse running on a running wheel.

"You and me both, buddy. I can't figure out what I messed up when I made that ding-danged door."
Luz is suddenly distracted by a clinking sound, downstairs Hooty is throwing a party.

"It is so nice to be surrounded by all of Lulu's dearest friends!"
There are many attendees in the party. They include an unknown woman, Gwendolyn, Morton, Lilith, Steve, Eda, King, and Tinella Nosa.

"Yeah! All hail Lulu!"
"We're here to celebrate the new assistant curator of the Supernatural Museum of History." Hooty lifts his wine cup. "Here's to you, Lulu!"
"Cheers!"

Lilith accepts everyone's toast with an awkward smile on her face.
Luz comes down to the living room wearing a party hat and notices everyone around chatting. She approaches Hooty.

"Hooty! Did I miss the toast?"
"Yes, but not the "app-pellet-tizers".

Hooty shows Luz a plate with some owl pellets on it. One of them is still moving and screaming.
"You want a- There's an extra one. I'm working on it."

Hooty attempts to cough out another owl pellet.
"No, no, no! That's okay. Uh, where's Lilith? We want to congratulate her."

Luz lifts her hat to show her echo mouse hidden in it. Suddenly, a whip appears, grabs one of Hooty's "app-pellet-tizers" and brings it outside. The unknown woman catches the falling "app-pellet-tizer" with her hand.

"Oh, I wish I could stay longer, but I must be off on my next adventure." She throws away the "app-pellet-tizer".

Luz peeks outside the door and sees Lilith approaching the unknown woman.

"It's such a delight to see my little bookworm back in the historical world after all these years."
"Uh, thank you, Flora, but it's just a small job. Only an assistant. I'm surprised you even heard about this."
"The Emperor wanted to make sure you weren't getting into any trouble. And to clear out your office. I left a box of your knick-knacks inside. Wish you took more from my tutelage, dear. History's supposed to be exciting, after all!"

Flora uses her whip to catch a flying griffin and drags it down to the ground. She then jumps onto the griffin's back and whips it, flying away with it.

"Who was that?"
"Flora D'splora. Bad-girl historian, celebrity, and my former mentor in the Emperor's Coven."
"I have questions about that name."
"And I have questions about MY LIFE!!! All I ever got to do was desk work, while she goofed off riding wild snake horses and- Snorses!"

Lilith storms into the house as Luz shouts after her.
"Congratulations on your new job!"

The echo mouse's plays back one of Philip's diary entry.

"After careful analysis during this Deadwardian Era, I believe the current human year is 1660. Or is it '70? The years are flashing by, but it will all be worth it. I've gathered all the portal ingredients, including Titan's Blood. All that's left is to seek out the Collector, and he will tell me what I need to complete my mission. But first, my companions and I must face-"

The playback is cut off before Philip can finish. Back in the living room, Luz lies on the couch staring at the ceiling, where the playback was just shown. The echo mouse goes to sleep.

"The Collector. I've never heard that name."
"Me neither. What kind of jerk puts "The" in front of their name anyway?" Eda picks up trash and puts it into a trash bag.
