Luz took a step back, all three eyes wide, and her hands shaking. She dropped the mace and nervously swallowed.

"Mom, what are you doing here?"

"Luz? What is this terrible? Is that a weapon?"

Luz dropped the mace.

"What are you doing?! She's not real!"

No matter how much Boscha yelled, Luz couldn't hear her.

"What happened to you? You look like a monster."

"Mom, I can-"

"Don't call me that! My daughter isn't a horrific freak like you!"

Grom turned into a large four legged monster that chased Luz out of the school and through the woods.

"I don't want to be Grom Queen anymore! I give up the throne!"

Luz felt her legs stop moving and quickly remembered her co-pilot.

"Boscha!? What are you doing?!"

"How can't you see with three eyes?! I just prevented you from walking us off a cliff!"

Luz looked out and saw that they were only a few feet from walking off a large drop. Luz felt a few seconds of peace before Grom caught up to her.

"Why are you running Luz? Why are you running from your mother?!"

"You're not really my mom!" Luz said.

"How can you say that Carino? You're becoming a bigger monster already!"

Grom was hit with a spell from Eda.

"Stay away from my Triclops you misshapen excuse for a monster."

"Eda, you were right. We weren't ready."

"That's okay, I got this."

Eda was about to make another spell when Amity jumped through the trees "Silence Hetero" style and stood in front of the fusion girl.

"Stay away from her... them."

Grom grabbed Amity and pulled her up.

"I'm sorry, Luz! I should've faced my fear."

"I am also in here and I never had a choice!"

Grom looked into Amity mind and turned into a human looking goo pile with three glowing eyes.

"Who is that?" Luz asked.

If Boscha could face palm, she would. How can you have two people in one and be so oblivious. The figure reached into Amity's dress pocket and pulled out the note. It ripped it in two and dropped it. Grom moved away from Amity and Luz picked up the note.

"You were afraid of being rejected. Amity, what if I go to Grom with you instead?"

"Really?"

"That's what friends do."

"I'm going to slap you later."

"Why?" Luz thought.

"I'll tell you later."

Grom roared and Amity held out her hand.

"Well, if that's settled, may I have this dance?"

Luz took Amity's hand and the two moved close while Boscha kept chanting "Gay! Gay! Gay!" in Luz's head. They dance. Amity casts a spell with her feet, forming a giant abomination below their feet and rising up. Luz places plant-glyphs on it. They jump off, and the Abomination goes into Grom's mouth. The plants start to bloom. Grom explodes behind Luz and Amity as they finish their dance with a flourish. A giant tree is in its place. Luz and Amity each have a Grom tiara appear on their heads. They look on and smile.

"So, who did you want to ask out?" Luz asked.

"Oh, it's no one important."

Amity tossed it away, where it opened up. Boscha, sneakily took control of their third eye and looked at the note from a distance. She smiled on the inside. Next thing Boscha knew, Amity and Luz (and her) were picked up and brought back to the school, where they danced, laughed, she kissed Willow, lip on lip. They took fun pictures, somehow Luz managed to convince her to let them take a picture in the Otter suit. The walked back into the Owl House.

"Woohoo! Look out for this Triclops! You did good kids."

"Thanks, but we're going to bed." Luz said, Boscha preventing her from tossing the tiara.

Luz sat in the windowsill and looked at the moon.

"Boscha, how were you able to tell your mom so easily?"

"Because I know my mom will love me no matter what."

Luz sighed and looked at her phone on the ground. She turned it on and looked at the latest text from her mom.

/Mija, I know I messed up by sending you to camp. Just please know that I only want what's best for you. Please come home./

Luz closed her eyes and sighed. She pressed the call button and put the phone to her ear.

"Hello?"

"Mami."

"Mija? Where are you?"

"Mom, you'll love me no matter what, right?" Luz asked.

"Luz, you asked me that when you came out to me. My answer is still yes."

"I can't tell you where I am, but I can tell you that I'm happy. I made friends, I've had fun."

"Mija, as long as you are happy, I'm happy."

"Even if I look different than when you last saw me?"

"No matter what is what I said."

"I'll be back at the end of the summer. I'll have a very long explanation to give."

"I look forward to it. Love you Mija. Have fun where ever you are."

"I will. Te quiero, Mami."

Luz hung up the phone and looked out with a smile.

"I'm proud of you, Luz."

Luz felt her lose control of her hand and felt it hit the side of her face.

"I told you I was going to slap you."
