Amity ran into the woods as fast as possible. She needed to get away from her mom. She saw the Owl House coming into view and felt actual hope. She ran up to the door and started pounding on it. It opened and Luz was on the other side.

"A-A-Amity?"

Luz looked at Amity, but she didn't look like she did this morning. Her pale skin was green, her clothes were made of leaves, her hair was made out vines, and her eyes were dark green.

"Oh... my... God."

Luz pulled Amity inside and immediately sat her on the couch.

"EDA!" Luz screamed, "We have a problem!"

Eda came down the stairs and saw Amity.

"Oh man, what happened!?" Eda asked, "Wait, let me guess... the thick bitch?"

"If you mean my mother, then yes." Amity said, "That... that... that bitch cursed me!"

Eda nodded.

"Okay, I'll be right back." Eda said, walking back upstairs.

After a couple of minutes, she returned. Walking down the stairs with a book in her hands.

"This is a book I found when I was looking for a cure to my own curse." Eda said, "It has almost every curse on the Isles, as well as information regarding them. It will probably give you some information about this. So, while I look for it, Luz, you take the walking salad upstairs and calm her down... preferably before she roots into my floor."

Luz and Amity looked down and saw that Amity's feet were becoming roots that were trying to dig into the floor. Luz took Amity's hand and brought her upstairs into her room. Luz and Amity sat on Luz's sleeping bag, an awkward silence forming between them. Luz looked at Amity, who looked like she was about to cry. Luz grabbed Amity's shoulder and pulled her into a hug.

"Everything will be okay." Luz said.

"How!?" Amity asked, "I'm some hideous monster now! My life is over and it's all because of my mom!"

Luz put a hand on Amity's cheek and wiped the tears away.

"I don't think you're a hideous monster." Luz said, "I think you're a beautiful gift from nature."

Amity closed her eyes and nuzzled against the Latina's hand. Luz was one of the few people that Amity enjoyed the touch of. Luz's touch was warm, inviting, there was always a sense of kindness, whereas her own mother's touch was cold, distant, and always had a sense of hatred.

"I promise, nothing will stop me from helping you." Luz said, "I will stand by your side until the day I die."

Amity hugged Luz. She doesn't know what she did to deserve someone as good as Luz, by the Titan she didn't think she deserved it, but she was glad that she had Luz with her. The peaceful moment didn't last as Eda kicked the door open.

"I found out something!" She said, "This is the Dryad Curse. Not particularly dangerous, but there are some problems, mainly in the... physical feature department. Thankfully, this is as far as it goes."

That made Amity feel a little happier. That means she would be like Eda, who's curse was accelerating her age and turning her into a giant mindless beast.

"Well, that's a relief." Amity said.

"Yeah, I think Bitchy McThicc Thighs just wanted you to freak out so she could try and make a deal with you." Eda said, "Probably tell you to stay away from Luz in exchange for a cure."

"Is... is there one?" Amity asked.

Eda looked at her with a sad expression.

"I'm... I'm afraid not." Eda said.

Amity wanted to cry again, but Luz quickly stopped that from happening.

"No, there is something I can do." Luz said, drawing a glyph.

Eda's eyes widened at this.

"Kid, are you sure?"

"It's for Amity, I've never been more sure in my life." Luz said, putting the glyph on Amity's head and pressing her head against hers, "With this spell declared, let the pain be shared."

There was a bright light in the room, practically blinding Eda. When Eda could see again, she was Luz and Amity, the latter looking normal again.

"Well, apart from the green eyes, you two look normal." Eda said, "Alright, good night, I'm too hungover to care about what else you do, just use weed killer if you try and plant seeds."

Eda walked away, leaving the two flustered messes behind.

"So, we're both... cursed now." Amity said.

"Yeah, but I think by splitting this curse, we lose the problems and only gain the cool parts." Luz said, "Like how Eda can become a harpy, maybe we can do cool stuff like that."

Amity chuckled, Luz was always an optimistic person, it really made her happy to be dating her. Amity watched as Luz held out her hands and started growing flowers from them. She handed the bouquet to Amity with a smile.

"For you my dear." Luz said, "Have I ever told you that your eyes remind me of a beautiful green field?"

Amity laughed.

"Well, your eyes remind me of... of... there aren't many things her that are naturally green so I can't say anything." Amity said.

"That's okay, I love you, even if you don't have a cute pick-up line."

Amity and Luz cuddled a little.

"So, now that we have this... connection to plants... want to give a visit to your mom tomorrow?" Luz asked.

"And smack her with a tree?" Amity asked, "Gladly."

The two went to sleep, holding each other close. As long as Luz was near, Amity didn't need to fear anything.
