Something Ventured, Someone Framed

Start from the beginning
                                    

Luz: I don't care about T-shirts, Eda! I want to learn magic, [Gestures to Gus.] and they teach that at Hexside!

Eda: I mean, yeah, well— [Grunts, leaves.] I don't wanna hear another word about Hexside, unless it's "Hexside is on fire" and "let's grab front row seats"! [Door slams.]

King: Aw, look what you did. I'm gonna go rub it in. Nyeh! [Laughs, leaves.]

Y/n: Might as well follow before he goes overboard. [Follows King. Door opens and slams again. Luz sighs and sits on the couch.]

Gus: L-Luz, a-about the ban, I, uh, used my H. A. S. presidential authority to pull some strings. You've been given a full pardon!

Luz: You mean...

Gus: I got the ban lifted!

Luz: Oh my gosh. [Shakes Gus.] Yes, yes, yes! Of course I'll be there tomorrow! Gus, this will be great! [Jumps on the couch.] I get to see the school and save the president. But what about Y/n?

Gus: It's fine if it's just one since they'll be expecting only one human.

Luz: Oh ok.

Gus: 
Great! I'll see you tomorrow! [Gus leaves. Cut to Willow and Gus standing outside of Hexside the next day.]

Willow: This isn't gonna work out at all.

Gus: Well, I feel like I took care of any potential problems.

Willow: You lied to our best friend and told her you got the ban lifted. That seems like a potential problem to me.

Gus: You don't understand. The members were going mad. They were bloodthirsty. They were touching objects. I had no choice!

Willow: Really? What about all the wanted posters around school?

Gus: [Pulls the wanted posters out of his bag.] What wanted posters? I also got this. [Pulls out a cowl.] To keep her undercover.

Luz: [Appears.]Undercover from what?

[Gus slams the cowl backwards over her head as she squeaks.]

Gus: Behold your new cowl.

Luz: Whoa. I love it. [Gus turns the cowl around and pulls the hood down. She smells the scent of her new cowl.] On the Boiling Isles, new things smell old.

Gus: Yep. Put it on. Hide your ears. [Chuckles.] Wanna keep you under wraps 'till the big reveal. [Willow frowns at the situation.]

Luz: Oh, a showman. I totally get it. You bring the razzle, [Pulls the hood back up.] I'll bring the dazzle. [Luz throws handfuls of confetti. Willow and Gus stare at her.]

Willow: Do you always have confetti on you or...

Gus: [Gus's watch goes off.]That's my alarm. Uh, we better get going. [Drags Luz away.] See you after school, Willow.

Luz: Bye, friend. Be safe. Make good choices.

Willow: Oh, Gus. I hope you know what you're doing.

[Cut to the Owl House, where Eda is moping outside with Y/n sitting beside her.]

Eda: I'm trying to protect her. Hexside chews up anything unique and spits out bland mush. [Rips apart a flower.]

Y/n: [Mindlessly listening.] Mhm.

Eda: But that's my beef. Does she need to draw her own conclusions?

Y/n: Well everyone is different, even their opinions on certain things. She doesn't have your natural talent, so it's best for her to start from the basics.
