Also after scrolling through the hollow mind tag for a bit- I know it was definitely hunter's episode (the grimwalker reveal, his panic attack, him fleeing belos AND the owl house) BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT LUZ. AND BELOS. CAN WE TALK ABOUT LUZ AND BELOS FOR A MOMENT PLEASE

#ramblings of a lunatic #toh #the owl house #BELOS IS SO FUCKING SMUG. ABOUT MANIPULATING A CHILD. HE IS WITH HUNTER TOO BUT HE ACTS LIKE IT'S SUCH A ''gotcha!'' W/ LUZ #AND SHE FUCKING BELIEVES HIM. SHE SPENDS THE WHOLE EPISODE SO WELL INTENTIONED BY PUSHY AND NAIVE #BUT BY THE END SHE'S JUST. SHATTERED #he thinks they're the same because she's a human. he thinks she's the same as his brother because she's a human ensnared by witches #and she parallels both the wittebane brothers in certain ways but not the ways belos thinks she does #he doesn't realized that despite being hundreds of years younger than him- luz is a version of phillip who actually grew up #and hollow mind is such a big painful part of her growing up i just. HHHHGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!#man belos' whole deal is just. it's so much. it's so much you guys #local protestant somehow managed to introduce an islands worth of ppl to the concept of catholic guilt!!!! fucked up!!!!!!#idk I'm a bit head empty rn (or at least I'm not super duper coherent) i mostly appreciated all the subtle touches and the lore this time #(like how hunter describes his family as being wiped out because they ''knew too much'' and ''got themselves hurt''-#-like. he's just describing caleb. HE'S JUST DESCRIBING CALEB GOD!!!!! BELOS PROBABLY TOLD HIM A VERISON OF THAT STORY SAYING CALEB WAS-#-HUNTERS DAD OR SOMETHING I JUST. AGHH!)#but like. yeah. it's. its a good episode #i once saw someone say that they think before the great shortening hollow mind was intended to be the s2 finale #which i think is honestly a good theory considering it's kind of toh's thesis statement and biggest show of what it can do #pushing the characters and themes to their logical extremes and popping off with the writing and art direction #i could talk more but also. i couldn't. no notes #my only wish is that the collector got to rhyme more because it scared me so much the first time #(what with the secret code poems and the acrostic poems hidden in the titles. i was like WAIT A MINUTE)#idk we've talked before about ways that s3 could open and how it could parallels past moments in the show #what. what if it opened with the collector reciting a poem that recaps the series til now????? oooh wait that's juicy #even just as a trailer audio it'd be neat #(or a theme song takeover if disney cared abt marketing this show jdbdjsbdkf)#anyway yeah. the gay little witch show is kicking my ass rn!
