THERE IS

NO REASON

FOR THEM

TO KEEP

HOLDING HANDS

FOR THIS LONG

amity: well, she’s the bravest girl i know… she’s loyal, and cunning, brilliant and her magic skills are impressive. she’s so cute and beautiful and she’s willing to like, die for me? which is not a good thing but it’s so romantic……

willow: and what about you luz?

Amity, trying to get to Luz and Eda even with a broken foot: I’M GAY- i mean, I’M LUZ’S FRIEND AND NEED TO BE THERE FOR HER

Edric: Did Amity just come out?

EMIRA: YOU ARE STAYING IN THAT BED. YOU WERE SO CHILL A SECOND AGO-

And then she coaxes others in.  

It’s where Willow and Gus solidified their bond with Luz. It’s where Amity can go now, away from her parents and siblings but no longer lonely, like she was at the library. It’s going to be where Lilith and Eda fix their fractured relationship. It’s where the characters can be most themselves. Outside of the house, they’ve all got fronts to put on.

But not here. Not at the Owl House. Because it’s where they feel at home.

TOH fans:

Dana: -hastily scribbles "that's what friends do" after luz asks amity out to grom-

Dana: how about now

So we’ve seen at least 2 impressive feats of magic performed by the younger characters thus far:

In “Hooty’s Moving Hassle”, we see Luz, Willow, and Gus manage to animate Hooty into walking around Bonesborough

While Amity’s group of “friends” failed to animate a doll

We also have “Enchanting Grom Fright”, when Amity, while dancing with Luz, manages to summon her largest abomination yet (without Lilith cheating)

This got me thinking. It seems that in those 2 instances, magic seems to be amplified depending on how much of an emotional connection the user has to anyone around them (strong friendship for the former, romantic feelings for the latter). And since we find out in “The Intruder” that magic literally comes from a magic sac of bile attached to a witch’s heart,

maybe the amplified magic is due to those elevated emotions getting the heart to beat faster, thus allowing for magic to be pumped through the body quicker
