Frog and Toad (the books) get hyped a fair amount here but I see v little love for Owl at Home, where the titular Owl is just so relatably indoors and weird. One time he tried running upstairs and down again to try and be in both places at once. Another time he made himself cry so he could drink his own tears, warmed up on the stove...he made friends with the moon. Top tier behaviour

Snuggled into bed tonight and my cast makes my foot look really big under the blanket and all I can think about is this owl and his strange bumps:
From Owl At Home by Arnold Lobel
In truth I often think about this owl, his feet bumps, tear water tea, and trying to be both upstairs and downstairs at the same time. It’s one of my favorite books from when I was little!
You can listen to the whole book here: x

okay but is anyone gonna talk about how the Titan clearly Chose to look like that? He was a ghost and very obviously revealing himself to Luz, and I think he was trying to use his appearance to make her comfortable enough to talk to him, because! that obviously doesn't match how he looked in real life! for one he should have been about a thousand times taller!
but no, King's dad looked at this girl that loved his son and Decided he was going to have a dad bod and a Bad Girl's Coven t-shirt and pajama pants covered in glyphs! he even had a little Hooty coming out of his bad eye, and it was very clearly all a deliberate choice!
