#literally on posters all around the isles the face of the most revered coven in the lands

WAIT—

Okay so I’ve seen the theory of Tyto (Owl Mask) being Belos’ son (very cool) in conjunction with Tyto being half-witch half-human, with Belos actually being human (also super cool, loving it).

BUT I’ve also seen theories of Tyto being related to the Clawthornes in some way, and we know that Eda had direct access to a portal to the human realm. So what I’m saying is, what if Tyto is Eda’s son, half-witch half-human.

#here come some thoughts #i’m warning you if you go into these tags. there’s a lot. #the owl house #toh #toh spoilers #tyto #owl mask #eda clawthorne #and for all of you stan pinesXeda shippers he could be stan’s son too #haha i hope that makes it clear enough that this is mostly a joke and that i don’t believe it’s the case for several reasons #BUT it’s actually super fun to think about so it’s perfect for like an AU #and there’s angst potential which is the best kind of potential #eda having to give him up for Reasons and always regretting that and believing she was a horrible mother #but now looking out for luz and being a great if unconventional mother figure #tyto eventually learning about this and he knows he has a better life as the emperor’s right hand and a powerful magic user and a prodigy #literally on posters all around the isles the face of the most revered coven in the lands #and he wouldn’t even want their life as they’re traitors & have nothing (he tells himself even as he begins to observe the ways they laugh #and love like no one he’s ever seen in the emperor’s coven) #(even as he sees the insecure and strict lilith smile and glow in ways she never did when she had all of her magic) #no no. he does not envy them. #but still infuriatingly feeling cheated and jealous because WHY is she keeping YOU when she ABANDONED ME? #and and!!! what if he inherited the curse? #what if he grew up with a curse that wasn’t his own? #something thrust upon someone else and now he has to carry when he didn’t do anything to deserve it? #and if that was the case it’d probably be impossible for him to not put together that eda ‘the owl lady’ was probably his mother #so he hated her and kept his relations to her a secret but always in the back of his mind when after he’d transformed he’d feel a strange #sense of CONNECTION to her because it was something THEY shared and it made him feel CLOSE to her in a way he both despised and yearned for #and i’m sorry i’m just rambling now and nothing’s making sense but tyto is literally my favorite type of character right now #has enough personality to have a presence but a blank enough slate of a mystery (for now) where you can throw anything at them & it sticks #you can explore lots of ideas with their character and i just think that’s so cool
