Mother's day, huh? When's that? I'll hafta mark my calendar. [ She doesn't have a calendar, which Luz knows full well. Eda doesn't have engagements to keep track of. ] Think it could be next weekend? 'Cause I'll be done with this by then.
Re: I picked one out for her... It's possible Luz could get this information out of her
No, its not for a few months, which is good because I'll have better time to plan AND I can have Margot help me. You don't have to worry your head about it, ok? Also, you know, keep your head attached. We don't want to give Margot some kind of painful flashback.
[She was definitely going to have to warn her friend about that].
She have something about heads? [ Eda reaches up to pat hers, making sure it's still in place. She hasn't taken it off since that very memorable day when she terrified Varian and his horse. ] Yeah, yeah, I'll only take it off if I need to.
That sounds like a made up holiday. All these human holidays are pretty weird.
Yeah, usually they stay ON, Eda. In fact, with most people that's usually what happens, and I still haven't figured out why yours pops off and you can still, you know, move around.
[Maybe she never would].
I assure you that its not. There's a day to appreciate mothers and one for fathers. Since I have two (and barely of the latter) I can think about you and Mami both that day.
Oh trust me, I remember! I know it's important! We bought some time getting away from Warden Wrath because of that, I think.
[Of course, now Luz didn't have to be scared of that guy, not after the last time they met].
Well mine is _____ (OOC: since I don't know that IC lol), but we don't have to worry about that yet! I didn't tell you anyway, since I thought I was going back home at the end of summer, remember?
[Luz nodded eagerly]. You didn't get to see, but I got to pay him back when I was looking for you later. He was definitely not expecting me to be a threat.
[Luz notices the look and takes Eda's hand]. Eda, that's not even part of the equation now, you know. I can't...go back home. The door's gone.
[Did she tell Eda that? She thought she might have].
We'll work on it here, Eda! I'm going to use my magic to help people, and I can't do that if I'm just sitting around not learning anything. I'm still your student, aren't I?
Yeah I am! He did have that huge worm almost eat me and there were a few things that almost fell on my head. He deserved losing a piece of his dumb mask.
[Nevermind it was one of the scariest things of her life].
Yeah we can! Who known, maybe we'll even learn new magic here!
[Luz is quiet there]. What if the Emperor tries to take THAT one though?
[ Eda laughs. She likes the imagine of little Luz taking out Belos. It's only funny because Luz is fine. ] He got what was coming for him. You did good, kid.
Maybe. This place has some sorta magic to it. It's different, though. Feels real different.
We figure it out then. As much as I'd love for you to stay forever, you have another life back in the Human World. And I need my source for garbage. [ Is she serious? Trying to lighten the mood? It's anyone's guess ]
He nearly got what he wanted, and all he had to do was have Lilith do his dirty work and capture her trying to make up for it. He's the worse.
I agree. I felt it when we were meditating. It's a warm glow and, like, cold dread. I felt it all around us.
[Here, Luz winced. That had been close to what Eda had said when she was in her beast form and warning Luz to leave and destroy the portal behind her. Considering the circumstances and that Eda was almost petrified afterward, hearing these words hit hard].
Don't say what? That I want you to get to the human world? I do, Luz. When I'm not being selfish, which I am very much ams selfish, I know you need to go home.
But, hey! We're stuck here together. That's more time for us.
[ Eda smile a little, pushing Luz's plate closer to her. ] This is a celebration! Sort of. Don't look so glum.
I don't want to think about that now, Eda, and I miss my mom a lot, so that's saying something. I'm not at all done with the Boiling Isles or anything I left behind there yet.
Let's focus on being here right now. Also, I'm a little selfish too. I want to stay with you as much as I can.
[She giggled] Ok, ok! You win! Let's eat and talk about how great the cake is then!
I picked one out for her... It's possible Luz could get this information out of her

[ Luz, don't say things like that. Eda's smile breaks a little. ]
Yeah? Well, alright. I won't say no to that. Is there somethin' like a daughter's day?
no subject
[And non permanent, which was the best part of all].
Great! Not really? I mean, there's Christmas and birthdays, but not a specific day.

Birthdays. Right. When's yours? [ She's a bad mother figure, what can she say? ]

[ Her face falls a little. ] Right. You were. [ Does Luz want to talk about it? Does Eda? She's not sure.
She reaches over, clapping Luz on the shoulder. ] Hey, if we make it out of here, just means more time to work on that magic of yours, huh?

Yeah, yeah, we should. I don't really know the glyphs that you use, but we can figure it out. Like you did with your phone thing.
[ She knew about the door, and is selfishly glad for it, and feels awful that she is. ] There was one door. Maybe there can be another one.
