The first day back in a few weeks… Willow was happy to return to school, but also uneasy to say the least. Being gone for so long, a lot of students were curious as to where she'd been, even more so with the timing of the Golden Guard's death. She'd said that she had just gotten a rather bad case of the common mold that was refusing to bloom, and people had accepted it for the most part.
But Willow couldn't help but notice the looks she was getting from a certain three-eyed witch… Boscha was probably assuming that Willow was lying. Which she was, of course. The fucha-haired witch was the only one in the school outside of their friends group who knew of some connection between Willow and the Golden Guard, so it was safe to assume Boscha was connecting dots.
It came to a head when the lunch bell rang. Willow was at her locker checking over a few of her homework assignments when she heard someone clear their throat next to her. She stiffened and looked to the owner, praying to Titan that this was only going to be a one time thing.
"...Listen," Boscha said quietly, looking away from Willow. "I'm…" Boscha thinned her lips, struggling with her words before huffing and looking back to Willow. "...I… don't know what connection you had, but… I know how much it sucks to lose someone." Willow blinked in surprise, turning to face Boscha a bit more. "He… cared a lot about you." Boscha sighed again, obviously having a hard time doing what she was doing. "...I'm sorry for your loss." With that, Boscha turned to walk past Willow, making note not to shove or even touch her.
"...Thank you, Boscha." Willow said, making Boscha stop for a moment and lower her head a bit more before she continued on her path. Willow couldn't help but have a small smile, turning back to her locker before hearing the sound of sneakers running up to her.
"¡Si ella te lastimó, la voy a patear tan fuerte!" Luz spoke, staring after Boscha before looking to Willow. "Are you ok? She didn't do anything, right?" Willow gave a small laugh, looking at Luz.
"No… she didn't." Willow smiled.
"Phew… What was that about, then?" Luz asked as Willow closed her locker's mouth.
"I'll tell you later," Willow said, turning to walk with Luz to the lunch room. The rest of the school day was, thankfully, normal. Her teachers showed concern over her long absence, as did other students. Willow was happy that so many people apparently cared for her well being, but it felt a bit… strange? She was still trying to get used to her new found popularity, and was becoming a bit more aware of how many of her fellow students blushed and figetted around her… Luz and Amity hadn't been kidding. A lot of Hexside apparently had a crush on her? Maybe she was just looking too much into it. Luz was a hopeless romantic for this kind of stuff, after all.
The final bell rang, dismissing the students from school for the day. Willow quickly went to the locker room to change into her civilian clothing, nothing fancier this time than her usual orange dress, and returned to her locker to switch out a few of the things in her bags. She took a pause as she noticed her jar of candy, smiling to herself as she picked it up and looked over the sour candies and gummies inside. Putting the jar into her bag, she heard a throat clear itself next to her, again. Willow turned her head, smiling this time as she saw Ron, the bucked-tooth potions major.
"H-hey, Willow!" Ron said, giving her a small wave.
"Hey, Ron. Need me to fix up Lord Ron Jr.?" Willow asked, slinging her bag over her shoulder.
"A-ah, yes, actually!" Ron took his bag off, producing the eggplant that was shaped as his face. Willow offered her hands out to take it, eyeing the vegetable over carefully before drawing a spell circle. The purple became brighter, with brown splotches disappearing yet again. She smiled, handing the plant back to Ron who looked over his 'son' and put it away. "Thank you, Willow! You're always the coolest."
"It's no problem, Ron!" Willow said as she looked at a nearby clock. "Oh! Shoot, I'm late!" Willow turned to quickly close her locker.
"O-oh, okay. But, uh… C-can I ask you something real quick?" Ron asked, looking nervous even though Willow did not pick up on it.
"Sure!" Willow said, looking quickly through her backpack one last time, making sure she had everything she needed.
"W-well uh… I-I was just wondering… since, uh… y-you know, you're so cool and- but we don't really know each other, and- uuhh…" Ron stumbled and stuttered over his words, fiddling with his hands as his nerves started to overtake him. He felt his insides jolt when Willow summoned her palisman staff to her hand before looking back at him, a soft smile on her lips as she waited patiently for him to get past his nervous block. Ron could feel his heart stopping before he breathed in, averting his gaze. "I'm having trouble in my potions class with plant ingredients… could you help me with that?"
"Oh, of course, Ron!" Willow said supportively. "Maybe tomorrow after school? I'll be in the greenhouse and I can answer any questions you have!" Willow looked back to the clock, before turning on her heel, and giving a smile and wave back to Ron. "But for now I really need to get going! I'll see you tomorrow!"
"A-ah… bye!" Ron waved back with a wide grin, watching the dark-haired witch rush down the hall and around the corner. He sighed, turning to smack his head against the wall.
"Eeyup…" His bowl-cutted friend came up from behind him. "That was a disaster."
"Shut up, Fjord…" Ron grumbled, looking over at the construction major. Fjord leaned against the locker next to him, giving a smirk.
"At this point, man, I have a higher chance of asking Willow out than you do," he teased, making Ron scrunch his face into a glare. "Look, I'm not sure if you've noticed but a lot of people have their eyes on Willow now. Since she got that confidence boost, people have begun to realize she is one hell of a girl. If you don't act, she's gonna be taken before you know it. Then I will have to be the one to listen to your whining."
"Maybe I should just give up…" Ron groaned, sighing as he gently hit his head against the locker again, "How am I supposed to stand a chance against some of these people?"
"That's for you to figure out, Bud," Fjord said with a shrug, standing up straight. "All I know is that you have it really bad for Willow, and you either need to suck it up and ask her out or get over her before you break your own heart."
Eda put her hands on her hips as she watched the two boys. King still had his paws on the door, his tail wagging, with Hunter sitting crossed legged right behind him, both staring up at the door in wait. They had been like this since Luz and Willow had left an hour and a half ago… Granted, this was a ritual for King. He'd usually stay like this until he needed a nap or Eda told him she was going out. Hunter, on the other hand… She knew the chances of this being regular for him were very low. She rubbed her chin in thought as she watched him. The Stag Beast clearly displayed a number of dog-like behaviors toward Willow… so maybe this was just that aspect leaking through like some of the Owl Beast leaked through for her?
"Alright, boys," Eda stepped forward, picking up King by the scruff of his neck and using her other hand to roughly rub the top of Hunter's head, who grimaced and tried to bat her away. "Remember, we've got chores to do. Snails don't make themselves, after all." Eda put King on her shoulder.
"Right… you make elixirs to sell." Hunter stood up, rubbing his lower back with a hiss of discomfort. The skin there felt unnaturally tight from the wood-patch scar, and sitting on the floor for so long didn't do it any favors.
"And half of the reason they sell is because I gather my own ingredients." Eda smiled as she watched Hunter reach up to readjust the new eyepatch. He didn't need to wear it in the house; he was just trying to get used to it.
"I see where this is going…" Hunter looked over to Eda. "Are you sure it's a good idea to bring me along? You have potions and glyphs and King has his super-loud shout thing, but I don't really have a lot of experience with using Lil' Rascal. I might be more of a liability than an asset, here."
"Eh, come on, Kid!" Eda reached out to lightly punch his shoulder. "We all gotta start somewhere! This'll be a good chance for you to start learning. Besides," Eda snorted, "would you rather sit in front of the door for the rest of the Hexside school day?"
Hunter thinned his lips, then sighed, turning to look to where Lil' Rascal was sitting on a shelf before holding out his hand. The cardinal chirped and fluttered over, turning into his staff form for Hunter to grab.
Hours later, Eda, King, and Hunter stumbled into the Owl House covered in dirt, ash, and mud.
"Well… that could have gone better," Eda remarked dryly as she brushed a patch of mud off her arm. "But the thing that matters is that we have everything we need!" Hunter fixed Eda with a look, before coughing up a few feathers. He groaned, wiping at his mouth as his ears turned red.
"AHAHAHA!" King pointed at Hunter, giving a few laughs. "I still can't believe you caught that bird in your mouth!"
"Shut up, King!" Hunter stuck his tongue out. He was unsure what had overcome him in the woods. They had found a nest of Roostaseeks and needed to collect the eggs; possibly even try to capture an adult for its feathers and talons… but after many failed attempts Hunter just felt so… angry. He'd jumped up the tree and proceeded to latch his teeth onto one of the birds. Hunter rubbed his face, feeling embarrassed by his actions… It took Eda a good hour to help him get the Roostaseek unlatched from the three rows of teeth he had apparently grown, which had faded on their trip back to the Owl House.
Eda smirked to herself as she watched Hunter, before reaching out to gently pat his head. "Look, I know it's something to get used to," she said with no trace of judgement. "But after a while, you'll get used to what the curse does and get better control over it. Besides, if it wasn't for you catching the Roostaseek we would have probably never gotten it, Kid." Eda smiled at him, making Hunter flick his ears as he raised his brow. "You did good today, Hunter. I'm proud of you."
"...U-uh…" Hunter blinked a few times, his ears flicking again before he looked away from Eda. What were these emotions? He thinned his lips before looking back to Eda. "Thank you, Eda…" The Owl Lady smiled, ruffling his hair again before stepping to the kitchen.
"Now come on! I'll show you how to brew one heck of a potion!" Eda called back. Hunter couldn't help but smile to himself, both from watching King scamper into the kitchen after Eda and the emotions bubbling in his chest… He went to follow Eda.
"T̸̜̮̀͒n̵͕̔̍e̸̹͉͆ŕ̶̠a̵͓͊p̸̻͔͛͛ ̶̬̘́r̸̢͝e̵̞̋p̷̭̖̈́ỏ̸̲̄ȑ̵͚͖p̸̯̑͑ ̵̙̃̀a̶̧͔͒͝ ̴̩͐d̴̖̽͝ě̸̱̬ñ̶̹͈͐i̷̳͗a̷̜̿̆g̸̨͆̅ ̸̡̃͛e̸͓̮͒ṿ̷̘́̋a̴͖͛́h̸̲͚̾ ̵͇̜́͝ų̷̌̚ȍ̴͈̮̕y̵͍̌ ̵̲͋̕s̶̙̭̈́͘u̴̯͠ḧ̸͜t̵̳̩͗̉ ̵̙̭̍d̸̔͜n̷̺̓͘ã̵͕.̷̳̲̈́̈" Hunter froze in his tracks, staring at the far wall as he heard the Beast in his head. He furrowed his brow before deciding to ignore him and continue his path.
"So, what potions do you usually sell?" Hunter asked as he circled around the table, watching Eda setting up her alchemical station. She carefully looked over the inside of the cauldron, before reaching over to a rag to start cleaning it out.
"You've got your pretty usual stuff. Snake oil, simple medicines and the like. But my best sellers are made with wild magic." Eda smirked over at Hunter, watching him flick his ears and his eyes widened with interest.
"The Emperor's Coven knows of your use of wild magic," he said, "but you've been selling it in potions, too?" Hunter rested his hands on the table, feeling a twinge of… not exactly anger, but… disappointment? How did the coven never pick up on this? Then again… they were pretty useless, aside from the Golden Hunt.
"They look like any other potion out there, so the Emperor's Coven never suspected a thing," Eda explained, tossing her rag to the side before turning to pick up an extremely old-looking book. "They never caught on because they thought they'd taken up every last book on wild-magical potion making! Hah!" Eda let the book drop onto the table, the wood shaking from the fall. Hunter eyed the book over, reaching out before hesitating. "Go ahead, Kid!" Eda encouraged, "Pick a potion you like and we will make it!"
Hunter smiled up at her, before moving to slide the book over to him and opening it to scan through the pages with moderate speed. He paused when he saw a somewhat familiar word, "Horticulture." The teen blinked before opening the book to the full page and quickly reading it over as Eda leaned over his shoulder and smirked.
'Potion to Accelerate Horticulture — After applying this potion to soil, plants will grow larger, stronger, and healthier. Magical plants will carry more power, while crops will taste more rich.'
"I take it we have a winner?" Eda asked as she looked down at Hunter, seeing his ears flicking. He thinned his lips as he scratched his neck, knowing it was cliche but… well, how could he resist making something for Willow? He'd put her through so much in the past few weeks… would this be a good way to make it up? The brew time was long, though. It would need to be set for a few days after to really gain its effects… but good things were worth the weight, right?
"Yeah…" Hunter looked to Eda before narrowing his eye at her, the woman giving a knowing smirk at him. He sighed, knowing full-well that she wasn't going to tease him yet about how head over heels he was, but knowing that eventually she certainly would.
"I thought so," Eda said, before cracking her knuckles. "Take your eyepatch off. You might want to use both with this." And so Hunter reached up with a brief hesitation before taking his eyepatch off and setting it on the table. The Owl Lady quirked her brow at his pause, Hunter looking to her before freezing as he realized what she had seen.
"...I-I, uh…" Hunter frowned, scratching the scar on his cheek. "It's just still weird, you know?" He shrugged, before swallowing. Eda smiled, reaching over to gently pat his shoulder… not calling out his lie.
"Don't worry. It'll take time, but time is always kind to wounds and scars." Eda nodded, making Hunter slowly smile back at her. "Now, let's get this baby cooking! First we'll want to rinse out the cauldron!"
Willow landed gently on the path that led into the market, smiling at Clover as she put the palisman away. She always felt bad when she had to put her into the pocket dimension witchlings were taught to store their staffs in, but in the past few days palisman-napping had become much too common for Willow to be comfortable having Clover out.
"I was beginning to wonder if you forgot about me." Hunter smirked over at her from where he was leaning against a street lamp. Willow turned, furrowing her brow at him but smiling all the same.
"From what that clock over there says, I am only two minutes late," she teased back, walking over to him with a sway in her step. Hunter gave an exaggerated pout down at her, making Willow giggle before she stood on her toes to give him a quick kiss on his lips before taking his hand, gaining a few ear flicks from Hunter. "Okay, where to first?"
"Let's see…" Hunter took out a note from his pocket with his free hand, unfolding it before holding it over for Willow to see.
Shopping list:
Clothing- 1000
Binders- 200?
Bathing Products- 20
Elixirs?- 50
Healing Kit- 30
Books?- 500
New Scroll-500
Odds and Ends- 500
Extra Snail Amount- 200
"That's quite a list. What do you want to get first?" Willow asked as she moved to hook her arm around his.
"That depends… When are your fathers expecting us?" Hunter looked over to her.
"In about three or four hours," she replied with a smile, "but as long as I keep in touch with them we have all the time we need." Hunter nodded down to her before folding the list and putting it away.
"We're closest to the clothing stores, so maybe hit them first?" Hunter asked, earning a nod from Willow. The two made their way down the street, soon finding themselves window shopping a few storefronts until entering a store that caught Hunter's eye. They specialized in more formal-casual clothing, from vests and button-down shirts to slacks and blazers. Willow couldn't help but find herself smiling like a goof as she watched Hunter perusing the selections. Eventually he made his choices with Willow's help, purchased them, and they made their way to the next store.
Hunter felt a bit embarrassed as they went on. He was buying a lot more than he'd intended, but was very careful not to cut too deeply into his wallet. Luckily, he didn't have to spend too much on collecting new hoodies. Eda had said that she should have a sizable stock of human clothing that they could go through. Hoodies should be part of the options, which he was grateful for.
All too soon they had gotten through most of Hunter's shopping list. Willow checked a clock to see that three hours had passed. She smiled as she looked up at Hunter, who was adjusting his eye-patch again with a bit of a disgruntled frown on his lips. She was unable to stop herself from giggling, causing Hunter to look at her.
"I'd like to see you wear an eyepatch without having to adjust it every five minutes," Hunter grumbled as he finished fixing the patch.
"Sorry! You were pulling a cute face when you were fixing it!" Willow smiled up at him in apology, causing him to smile down at her… then snuffle. He smacked his hand over his mouth and nose, ears flicking around as a blush rose up his neck. Willow had to cover her own mouth not to laugh. "You know, you don't have to be so embarrassed about doing that!"
"I-I'm not! I'm just- I…" Hunter grunted, his ears flattening as he lowered his hands, the red on his face practically a beacon. He huffed, taking her hand to lead her to the next set of stores, though slowing down after a few steps. "...Have you noticed I only do that around you?" he asked shyly, looking down at Willow as she smiled up at him.
"I have," she replied, moving to hug his arm close to her. "That's why I love it so much." Hunter's ears flicked around wildly, he scratched at his neck as he looked away from her, trying his best to keep calm, but… damn it, she always made it so hard to keep an air of cool level-headedness. Eventually the clocks around them rang, alerting them to how late in the day it had gotten.
"Should we head home?" Hunter asked, looking down to Willow with a smile. She nodded, looking around with a small frown before looking back up to Hunter.
"Let's walk home," she whispered. "I don't want to risk putting the palismen in danger." Hunter nodded in agreement as he hooked his arm around hers. It would be about a half hour walk to the Parks' residence, which the two enjoyed by chatting and giving light teasing bumps to each other. The only time they took pause was when Hunter spotted a few Emperor's scouts, Willow feeling him stiffen up. She took his hand in hers, lacing their fingers together. Hunter relaxed slightly before glancing back to the guards… and realizing what they were doing.
"I mean, it's to be expected," they heard one of the scouts say as they drew a circle. "I know some of our own have been stealing the posters by the arm full to try and sell."
"Urrnnghh...annyonnee wouuld reeally try t' mmake a profit," the other scout groaned, taking a poster in his hand. The two scouts didn't notice as one of the teens near them froze in his steps. Hunter's heart pounded in his ears, panic overcoming him.
"Hey, uh…" the other scout rubbed at their neck. "I know you were close to the Golden Guard, so… are you doing okay?" Willow flicked her ears as she looked up at Hunter, her confusion coming into realization as Hunter tried to walk normally again, motioning to an alley nearby with his eyes.
"...It hass beenn...roouughh…" The scout said, unfolding the poster and looking it over. "Percii iis...still reecoovveerrinngg…" The scout sighed. Willow and Hunter finally made it into the alley, Hunter pressing his back against the stone wall as he listened into the conversation.
"How is the rest of the Golden Hunt?" the other scout asked, watching as their partner put the new poster up...one of Kikimora with the vistage of The Golden Guard behind her, like a ghost…. "I heard you guys are being led by Kikimora now, too…"
"Theeyy aree…" the scout sighed. "...dooiinng theeiir beesst…" Hunter knew that particular scout was not one to discuss his emotions with just anyone. He'd always had difficulty explaining what he was feeling, even more so when his spouse wasn't around. Hunter furrowed his brow, questioning why he wasn't with them in the first place…
" Well… who knows…?" the second scout shrugged. "Maybe things will… will…"
"...yoouu haavee dooubtss… Sso do I…" The other scout sighed, picking up their bag full of posters and turning to head down the street, away from the ally. After a few moments had passed, Hunter peered out from behind the wall, frowning deeply as he watched the two scouts turn a corner and disappear.
"Hey?" Willow asked, taking his hand again as she furrowed her brow in worry at him. Hunter looked over to her, still frowning before looking back to where the scouts disappeared.
"Bortaboglly Twovale…" Hunter sighed. "He is part of the Golden Hunt… my special task force." He raised his hand, rubbing at his face before adjusting his eyepatch again. "He and his spouse made a lethal combo. Borta is a type of demon with an innate talent at seeing multiple futures at once and taking clues on how to nudge the favors into a direction he wants it to go. That's why I had a small… panic?" Hunter sighed. I was worried he might see a future where I would be unable to stop myself from saying hello."
Willow frowned, looking down the street to the corner where the scouts had disappeared. She turned her eyes back up to Hunter, gently cupping his cheek with her hand. He smiled, moving his hand to hers as he sighed through his nose. Willow gave him a quick peck on the check before leading him back on their original path homeward, ignoring the concerning feeling she was getting in the pit of her stomach.
The two of them couldn't help but feel great relief when they turned the final street corner and laid eyes on the townhouse that Willow and her fathers called home. Hunter smiled softly to himself, though gave a small but noticeable pause.
"They are going to be really happy to see you, Hunter," Willow said, "I know you're nervous, but they've been looking forward to seeing you and making sure you're really alright." Hunter relaxed, moving to rest his hand on one of hers. He nodded, looking up at the townhouse as they finally made it to the front steps. Willow reached out to open the door, stepping inside with Hunter following her.
"We're here!" Willow called out into the home. Hunter couldn't help the smile on his face as he looked around the familiar living area, pleased by the smell of a savory dinner being cooked and his eyes landing on the still-radiant Memoria Bonsai that rested on the cabinet.
"Oh thank Titan!" Gilbert cried out. Hunter didn't have a moment to react before he felt the two powerful arms of one of Willow's fathers wrap around him and hug him tight. "You're alright! I know what Willow told us, but we were still so worried!"
"Y-yeah, I'm fine! I'm-" Hunter was cut off when Eun pulled Willow into the hug he and Gilbert were sharing, the four of them tightly joining together in strange relief. Willow smiled at the blond, giving him a small shrug. After a moment Eun and Gilbert released the teens and Hunter noticed Gilbert's flash of a pained and angry expression as he noticed the new eyepatch.
"We visited you when you were still in the coma," Eun said, resting his hand on Hunter's shoulder. "How are you feeling now?"
"A lot better," Hunter nodded to the man with a smile. "A lot in part thanks to Willow."
"Come along! Tell us everything about everything! I'll go fetch dinner!" Gilbert turned, heading back into the kitchen as Eun, Willow, and Hunter went to sit at the dining table. A few moments later Gilbert came out with a tray of grilled peckin-legs, dumplings, and oven-baked veggies. Hunter could feel his stomach practically trying to tear its way through him to get to the food faster.
Eun and Gilbert were careful with how they served their own food, trying to make sure Hunter felt he could have more than his share in particular. They had talked earlier about how the curse might affect the teen's appetite, and wanted to make sure that he was getting all the nutrients he needed. Willow took notice of her fathers actions, smiling in thanks to them as she started to get her own share of food and trying not to giggle at how hyper focused Hunter was on his own meal.
The fathers made idle chit chat with one another and Willow as Hunter ate. The boy, despite trying his hardest to be polite, was eating like he hadn't had two pretzels at the market earlier and had been on an empty stomach for days. It made the Parks pause as they watched him devour all of the food on his plate. Willow smirked faintly as she looked Hunter over then paused, noticing what might be causing him to act so famished. She opened her mouth to speak, then stopped as Hunter put the peckin-leg bone in his mouth and snapped it, like it was just any other food. Eun and Gilbert's eyes widened in shock and surprise.
"H-Hunter?" Willow asked, making Hunter pause and look at her in question. Willow looked at his fingers, the tips of which had turned into the inky black. Hunter looked down at his fingers, then jolted slightly.
"Is it the curse?" Eun asked, trying not to sound alarmed as Willow quickly got up and went to where she left her purse. Hunter sat the peckin leg he was working on down as he crossed his arms over his chest, becoming aware that his mouth felt more tight… he moved his tongue to count the three rows of teeth. That must be how he was able to eat the bone in the first… place… Wait, why did he eat a bone?!
"It's nothing to worry about, Papa," Willow assured as she appeared at Hunter's side with one of Eda's elixirs in hand. She popped the cork, offering it out to Hunter as she gently placed her hand on his shoulder. Hunter looked over to her, then to the elixir with a small smile as he took it, bracing himself in his head for the horrific taste and chugging the liquid inside. After downing the foul-tasting brew, he looked down at his hands. The black faded away and he felt the teeth in his mouth retracting, as well.
"Are you okay?" Gilbert had stood, and was looking at Hunter with great concern. Not that he could blame the older man.
"Y-yeah uh… S-sorry." Hunter frowned. His guilt about ruining the light mood was stopped when he felt Willow's hand run through the hair on the back of his head. Hunter looked up at her, smiling softly. "I didn't know you had elixirs on you."
"Eda insisted," Willow answered, leaning down to place a kiss on the top of his head before going back to sit. Hunter felt his ears flick around at her before he looked back to his plate. He had… piled it very high. And after consuming the potion, his stomach did not feel very… empty anymore.
"You know, we can always pack up what you don't eat, Hunter," Gilbert suggested with a smile.
"R-right, yeah… Sorry…" Hunter sighed, rubbing the back of his neck.
"No need for apologies, Hunter," Eun smiled. "We know you are still adjusting."
"Yeah…" Hunter gave a soft smile at the fathers, before looking back down at his plate.
"And always remember that it's okay to take the time you need to get used to how your life is now," Gilbert added gently. "Actually… this leads into something we've wanted to talk to you about, Hunter." The teen raised his brow at Gilbert, before looking to Eun.
"Would you like to see our family therapist, Doctor Conva?" Eun asked.
_AN_
You know what? *Sends the boy to therapy*
