Chapter Text
The next three days were static.
Luz went to school, talked with her friends, and almost never saw Boscha.
But when she did, it wasn't pretty.
A lot of the higher status students bugged her about their gifts, bullied her at different intervals of the day, and started spreading rumors that quickly died out thanks to a pair of twins. She even started avoiding Skara and Amity.
The school day ended and Luz walked out of school, Willow and Gus were talking about events from the day, Luz was too focused on the fact Boscha was the first out of school when the bell rang, where was she now?
"Luz?" The human looked at her friends and smiled as they walked off into Bonesborough, Luz's attention split again. There were posters for a missing triclops scattered all over town.
Willow looked at her with another confused look. "Luz? You've been kinda 'out there' all day. You okay?" The human just nodded and grabbed a poster from a board. "Isn't this weird? We see Boscha everyday, but these things are everywhere."
Gus brought a hand to his chin. "We haven't seen her outside the school, not even at grudgby matches... What if someone replaced her with an Illusion!"
Gus started casting spells and put on a Sherlock outfit, getting a laugh out of his 2 friends, Til Willow spoke up.
"Maybe she's just going through things. She's been a little distant since the grudgby match." Luz had to take the blame for that one...
Eventually.....
Boscha woke up in the shortcuts room again, 4 nights in a row. Thank titan Viney let her stay in here, and even gave her a map of all the doors. She picked up a can of food and headed to the school showers.
Geez staying awake was difficult. Luz made it a little easier when ever her potion exploded violently. The floor of that room wasn't the most comfy, and the singular blanket she brought helped barely at all. She still gets weird looks in the halls. At least the Blights kept those jerks away for...well whatever reason. She didn't know Amity's reason, the twins kept asking where she was hiding out after school.
The end of the day hit her faster than expected, going back to the shortcuts room to repeat the entire process again...when she heard a door slam open and shut.
"Boschaaaa! Are you in here!?" She eased up when she recognized the human's voice.
"Whatcha want Noceda?" The rapid pitter patter of steps ended with a gasp, making the triclops look up. Looking back at her was a horrified look. "What?"
"Your living here?" The witch just nodded slowly, and Luz just shook her head. "You can't live in here Boscha." The triclops just gave back another questioning look, when the latina took her hand. "Come on, I can take you somewhere you'll be safe, and at least sleeping on the couch." The witch was too tired to argue, and just used levitation and pulled her hood over her head.
Eda heard Hooty mention something about an adventure, so sadly her door was left wide open, having a living house has its downsides.
"Hey Eda!" The witch responded by turning over onto the couch. "What do ya want kid, I've got a headache the size of the knee."
Then Eda jolted up when the second pair of footsteps caught her ears. "Luz, what did I say about having friends over?"
"Warn you a day in advance?"
"And why is that?"
"A day to hide Illegal objects"
"Bingo"
The three eyed, sleep deprived witch looked up. "Actually the name's Boscha"
Eda brought a hand to her chin, sounded familiar. When Luz walked over and whispered in her ear.
"Oh, That Boscha. Well Ki-" A few more whispers hit Eda's ears, making her sigh. "You get the couch." Boscha just stood there in awe.
What did Luz tell her?
Humans have some kind of magic, she swore by it
