CHOOO CHOOO TOH S2 SPOILERS (WARNING: CONTAINS SCREENSHOTS AND A RECORDING!!!!! please only read if you’ve watched both first episodes I’m going to end up ranting a ton or you can just read if you’ve been looking for some different spoilers outside of Odalia being thicc and Luz possibly having a crush on Amity)

You can watch both of the episodes here:

this is a meme the original frame was from ep2 i just edited it because it reminded me of the “is this a pigeon” meme don’t @ Dana or the crew

Sorry I haven’t added a read more or keep reading to this, I’m doing this on mobile and searching for an answer isn’t helping I’m just more and more confused so again I apologize.

Woooooooooo, today was quite something, anyways, people have gone about posting a ton about the Lumity scenes which is nice and all but what about after that? Odalia almost ended up lashing at Luz, Gus, Willow and even Amity (again). But instead of seeing the trio of friends as just a throwaway joke for the moment, Alidor thinks that it’s best to keep them around because in this clip we clearly see Amity is stronger:

Which leads me to think, what’ll happen to Gus and Willow once they all enter their final year at Hexside? Will Alidor and Odalia try to get them expelled again? Will Luz even be around to hear the terrible things happening to all of them (Amity, Willow, and Gus)? We can’t forget that Amity also has it hard. She yells at her parents in the episode “No you’re going to listen to me for once.” She’s clearly never tried to speak out like this and that last time she did try to do so, she was threatened to have Willow affected academically. Or will Odalia and Alidor leave them to be affected in “the real world” such as having offers pass them by as the Blight parents make sure to have them denied access to high ranking jobs.

More from the battle, this is before Amity literally jumped in:

Speaking of jobs, the Emperor’s Coven came in after the show. That’s quite a surprise, said no one ever cause no ones been posting about the fact that the Golden Guard came in with an offer from the Emperor himself which obviously can’t be denied.

Sibling dynamics in TOH part 1

i absolutely love the sibling dynamics in The Owl House and as someone who (like many ppl) has siblings, I can confirm they are very accurate and varied

I'm gonna divide this in parts bc I don't want to keep having very long posts unless it's necessary

First of all, the Blight siblings. The older siblings tease Amity but in a friendly way, and that's just how it is. The only time they went too far was in Lost in Language (and I might talk about that specifically later) and they are clearly sorry (we see them in later episodes still apologizing for the incident and stuff)

They also very clearly take care of Amity, listen to her (that whole conversation Amity had with Em about Luz), they understand how she feels and they relate to her feelings towards their mom because they also have suffered at her hands. And Amity also very clearly loves them, but she also sends back their banter attacks (like in s2 ep2 when Ed and Em put the "hex me" things on Amity, Gus and Willow's back and she threw them back at them)

I also love how supportive they are of her crush on Luz, it kinda reminds me of how supportive my sister is of lgbt people. She doesn't know about me but I know she would be the most supportive person in my family if she knew, so it's nice to see that on tv i guess

Part 2

Possessive Demonstratives and Proper Nouns

(Out-of-context screenshot from S2 EP2 of TOH)

I think that the use of possessive pronouns is so easily overlooked in media and I just wanted to make a post pointing it out.

So, what are possessive pronouns?

The definition of a possessive pronoun is:

"A pronoun that derives from a personal pronoun and denotes possession and analogous relationships," (Merriam Webster).

Possessive pronouns are used in place of a noun to indicate possession or relation. There is another type of possessive pronouns that while technically pronouns, are called possessive determiners. Possessive determiners are used before a noun to indicate relation or possession.

Examples of possessive pronouns are: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, and theirs. There are others not listed here.

Examples of possessive determiners are: my, your, his, her, its, our, their, and one's. Again, this does not include every possessive determiner.

In this, I want to focus on possessive determiners,

Most often these are used in relation to a regular noun, examples are:

My sister

His schoolwork

Our house

These sound normal and are ones we hear quite often. However, once the general noun is replaced with a proper noun it sounds significantly different.

A proper noun is different from a regular noun in the sense that is it refers to a particular version of a regular noun. Versions of a noun that have a name, like "Christine" (named version of a person), "New York" (named version of a city), and "Friday" (named version of a day).

When a possessive determiner is used in reference to a proper noun, the relationship between the person represented by the pronoun and the proper noun referred to. It's something I struggle to explain the full impact of in a way that makes sense, just that it sounds much more important than it would normally.

I was only able to grab two screenshot examples (one with added subtitles by me) because while I could foggily remember other instances where it was used in the same way, neither my sister or I could remember what episodes they were from or if they even actually happened and I didn't just make it up in my head.

I still don't know exactly how to describe the feeling it gives me, but using it in the context here where we know that Amity has a crush on Luz, and Steven has a crush on Connie makes me feel it is in some sort of romantic sense. I can 100% be wrong, but it feel that is how it is often used in media, as a way to portray one character's romantic feelings towards the other in both a very pronounced and easily overlooked way.

TOH s2 ep2

Been a bit since I’ve done the first episode, but now I’m at this thing. Also, I guess I’m doing this liveblog style since I’ve already paused the episode a few times to think about things within the first four minutes. So I’ll just start over and start from there.

00:02 - Even on my first go around I noticed “Blight” on the sign to this factory and connected it to Amity’s family. Gives some extra meaning to the name.

00:30 - So the Blights sell “security”, but also suggest that they are really what amounts to an arms manufacturer. It might be why all of their potential customers are cloaked, hiding their identities. It may be preferable to not let it known that one is purchasing weapons and security, especially if anything here is less than ethical.

Oh, and I believe this is the first time we see the Blight parents. At most we saw them as silhouettes in flashback: when they forced Amity to stop being friends with Willow.

00:42 - An oracle, huh? That could make for some difficult challenges, assuming mother-Blight becomes a significant antagonist. Also, father-Blight looks really worn out; wonder how much say he has in business affairs.

02:00 - And of course, they’ve separated Amity from a friend before, so they’ll definitely be willing to do it again.

03:02 - As one would expect from what we know of their backstories, Lilith is upright and attentive while Eda is distracted. Having the mentor figure of the previous season suddenly be the “problem student that learns differently” would be quite unique—also relatable as I am someone who figured out I was ADHD as an adult.

03:14 - These three (or more, along with Luz’s friends) encountering more glyphs is something I’m excited about: all of them learning together instead of the adults generally knowing everything

03:20 - I figure these sisters would have some good ideas about where to find more glyphs. I’m not sure how to interpret the expression, but it might be a knowing look shared between them.

03:45 - Eda fumbling around and immediately trying whatever she thinks might work is probably just how she learns. Being told what not to do, trying to provide rigid structure to learning, is what she greatly dislikes about formal education. I say just let her make mistakes; it’s probably how she ended up becoming the greatest sorceress of The Burning Isles after all.

03:58 - King in charge? Oh no. (Oh yes!)

04:14 - Okay, to be fair to Luz, apparently she did properly understand that Eda was impatient to get back to her former glory. Something that Eda might have to come to terms with, over the course of the season (and beyond) is that she may never reach those heights again. Just pure speculation on what sorts of themes the show may be exploring

04:25 - Ah, so that’s where Lilith is likely to be wrong about things as well: being so attached to doing things “perfectly” and “correctly”. It’ll probably be that their approaches to learning need to mix: not exactly “meet in the middle” because that implies abandoning their respective extremes. Or at the very least, they can come to terms about how they learn differently from one another

04:36 - I just noticed Lilith is wearing a blouse of a battery icon on low charge. No doubt something that Eda scavenged in the human world, but I wonder if there’s any symbolism to it. Guess there’s how these sisters are depowered, but maybe there’s something more unique for Lilith to be wearing it?

Also, it’s just funny.

05:24 - Ah. A pie made of fairies, rather than a pie might by fairies [or as fairies would make it]. Topped with an additional pun even! Fairy [Very] fresh indeed

05:31 - Also cute Amity blush

05:50 - The Blight parents are wasting no time I see

06:00 - Yeah, father Blight looking like he has ADHD or some form of neurodivergency at least. Curious how he will fit into the narrative, because mother Blight seems to be the more clear antagonist here.

06:15 - Comes off as a joke in the moment, but I wonder if he said “executed” out of force of habit

06:25 - Damn, the way that Amity’s fire was immediately quenched.

08:00 - Concerned that Luz is only being seen as a rare commodity, and that this apparent cordiality, along with these circumstances, are just meant to ensnare her. Not to say that Luz was their main goal, I’m sure that punishing Amity was what they came for, but they probably recognize Luz as a unique opportunity

08:47 - So the magic Eda is used to is literally a lot more fluid, accommodating to her creativity. The glyphs are fundamentally more rigid, potentially necessitating Eda to learn something from her sister.

09:06 - Yeah, Eda is used to being the best. This seems like it’ll be central to some big problems in the future; Eda being tempted by a shortcut to power or something maybe.

09:25 - Huh, Principal Bump is surprisingly fond of these troublemakers.

11:00 - Oh gosh, Luz going to see the Blight parents (Alador and Odalia apparently) on her own is the most dangerous outcome.

11:30 - Ooo, Eda has made some progress with making a custom glyph. Potentially very dangerous, but also exciting.

12:50 - Not looking as bad as I had feared thus far, but helping to demo security automatons and weapons is dangerous in its own right. Stopping to think about things, I guess Luz being human has never been that big of a deal. Though, maybe her performance here will spark unsavory interest in her

13:14 - Team Fortress 2 reference? Almost vaguely shaped like the sticky bomb launcher. Could easily be a coincidence.

13:38 - Oh! Willow has two dads!? Did we already know that from season 1? I certainly don’t recall it. Very cool regardless.

14:20 - My immediate thought is to try doing all of it at once. Though, I guess Willow’s sneaky approach isn’t exactly compatible with Amity’s.

14:51 - A good ol’ crossbow with non-functioning limbs just to bother anyone that notices

16:05 - Yeah okay, so Odalia planned for this to be Luz’s execution.

16:31 - Wonder what kinds of gasses would be piped in a magical arms production facility. Quite possible that it’s just for visual effect, but still makes me curious from a worldbuilding perspective

16:58 - “My Luz” you say Amity? I like it.

18:30 - You go Amity!

19:37 - Hmm, Alador seems to have more control than initially presented. In context, it suggests that he might be someone to be trusted, yet he still is fine with pushing Amity for “success”. He certainly doesn’t show any interest in Amity making friends, which only happened to be beneficial here.

And he’s immediately back to being an easily distracted goof. Maybe it’s not a persona per se, but I can imagine him being far more threatening than this lets on. We already know for a fact that he’s competent at building powerful abominations if nothing else.

21:18 - Of course the state is purchasing all of the weapons.
