>>118035288>have Eda be a shitty teacher at Hexside on the verge of losing her job and she's using Luz as a way to prove that she can still be effective. "If you can teach this human magic, then you can teach anyone magic"I personally was thinking it could be cool if they cut the school but kept some of the kids, and just gave the other kids their own apprenticeships. That way there could be some kinda reason somewhere for Eda to want to adopt Luz as an apprentice in the first place, if everyone on the Isles was doing it. Instead of the foundation of the relationship starting with “Hey weird old lady I bumped into while dumpster diving, I’m gonna move into your house and make you adopt me in exchange for, uh, you getting to adopt me.” “Lol, okay kid, I’m characterized as a crotchety loner, but I’m cool with that for some reason.”
But making her a teacher would be a really great idea too, especially if like you said, not-Hogwarts was a requirement.
Anything to give her more motivation for taking in Luz. Heck, if it were TV-MA, maybe Eda could start out thinking human blood might cure her curse, and that could start it.
“I’ll do chores and teach you how to work a tv” is kinda weak, especially since we almost never see her doing that.
