(Hunter's POV)

It's been a 2 hours since I was in the owl house, just laying on the comfortable couch weakly while rascal just taking a nap in my chest. The Owl Lady already put bandages on most of my body, my coat was on the table so now I'm just wearing a golden uncomfortable uniform! Also.. I think the owl lady and her dog is going somewhere so now it's just me and the human, I believe she's on her room doing i don't know what.

"HOOT!" I flinch at the sudden noise which woke up the cardinal who was sleeping, i looked at the direction of the sound, showing the owl house demon itself.

"What do you want worm?!" I shouted and instead voice cracked at the end of my sentence. The worm looking demon was having a bright smile on his face which I don't even know it meets bad or good.

"I just wanna hang out with you little dude! You know me and lulu are best friends! And since you both have similarities I figured we can be besties too!" He said in a cheerly tone and started wobbling his neck or something.

"Lulu?" I asked confused, but then I remembered Lilith got kicked out because of betraying uncle! Oh yeah, I guess she moved here huh.

"Oh! It's Lilith's nickname I made!! I think she likes it!" He exclaimed sounding oddly excited.

Pfft, 'Lulu'.. that's new. Really wonder how's this 'fRiendShiP' worked out. I looked back at the owl demon who was looking up and down to me, odd but what can I do?

"Hmm.. Hey! Goldie would be a perfect name for you!!" He exclaimed in happiness and and started wiggling again.

Ugh.. how many Goldie nicknames I'm gonna get? First Steve, then another Blight, then the bat girl who was Mx. Whisper's minion, and now him?! Creativity is rare these days.

although I do like when that Blight's boy calls me that tho..

Wait what the hell am i thinking?!

I turned red to my ears at either the thought of the Blight boy or because of the owl demon's nickname.

"Goldie?" I judged the nickname immediately with no hesitation, but I think he doesn't seem to care with what i think about it.

"What? I don't know your real name and I only know that you're the 'Golden Guard' so it's Goldie to put it short!" He said smugly.

"It's Hun-" the word of my name suddenly spit out of my mouth, but when I realized what I said I immediately shuts up without finishing.

"Hun??" He said smugly and shakes his neck.

I hesitated for a moment but, it's a bit pointless by now.. the human will probably reveals my name so what's the point in trying to do so?

"Hunter.." I mumbled and looked away from the bird, but I believe he hears it since I heard giggles coming out from the bird worm, thing.

"I'LL HAVE A LIST OF HUNTER NICKNAMES AND YOU WON'T EVEN KNOW I DID!" He shouted in the happiest tone I've ever heard,

"Oh this is going to be bad.." I mumbled with regret on my face.

(Luz's POV)

I was learning more about glyphs casually but then I heard Hooty shouting, but I really couldn't hear it, it's just muffles from my room but to the point I can hear it from here it's probably loud.

I got up from my mattress and walked out of my room to see how was Hunter doing, well Hooty too!

I got downstairs and goes to the living room, being greeted with Hunter literally looking so done with his life while Hooty just surrounding the couch talking to Hunter, which made me chuckle a bit.

"Hey guys!" I greeted them which made Hunter flinch for some reason.

"Hey Luz!!" Hooty greeted me back with joy on his owl face.

"Watcha up to?" I asked The chaotic owl to safe Hunter because he just looks tired right now, can't really deny but he looks tired all the time!

I sat on the floor while looking at Hooty who was happily explaining how he got Hunter's name and the nicknames he had for him, I was surprised cause it's really not easy to get his trust that fast.

I looked back at Hunter who was laying down and playing with little Rascal who was on his chest.

Actually I'm quite shocked how Rascal got on his good side, it's probably wasn't easy especially about the fact that little Rascal is a palisman!

It's been another hour since Eda and King left, Hooty was back on his usual spot, which is the door and surprisingly, Hunter was sleeping, although that uniform looks uncomfortable so it'll probably be hard to stay comfortable with it.

I'm a bit bored, so maybe calling Willow or Amity would be enough to clear my boredom! I quickly went upstairs to get my crystal ball so that I could call my friends.

As I saw that one blue of a circle, I quickly grabbed it and contact the first person in my mind, Amity!

She immediately answers the call, she was on her bedroom sitting in her bed casually, she's really pretty and calm!-

"Hey Ams!!" I said sounding excited and cheerful seeing my awesome girlfriend,

"Hey Luz!! How are you?" Amity casually says.

We both talked to eachother for a few minutes and then added Willow on the call to join us, we three talked about school and stuff, I don't think I'm ready to tell them the Emperor's Guard is in The Owl House yet!..

(3rd Person POV)

Hunter and his palisman was casually sleeping on the couch, for how long now?

While hooty was just being hooty and doing his thing, actually I don't think anyone knows what's he doing.

Suddenly, someone entered the owl house casually, Of course, it was the house's owner herself, Eda and his, son? pet? (Both) King Clawthrone.

Eda notices the sleeping boy and walks up to the couch quietly,

"Dang this guy seems tired" Eda exclaimed to the high pitched demon.

King gets off of Eda's shoulder and goes to the kitchen to get some crackers, meanwhile King was doing so, Eda puts down something to their table and started doing her thing meanwhile the Guard is sleeping.
