The year before the story started Spirit ''somehow'' ended up ''melting'' a pot despite the fact that the stove he was using should have been physically incapable of getting that hot.


Added DiffLines:

* ChestBurster: In Soul's nightmare, he bursts out of Maka's stomach right before he wakes up.


Added DiffLines:

* FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence: Luz, a human, using Magic is a [[BeyondTheImpossible complete rejection of the First Rule of Magic, which states that it is only possible for Witches and Demons to do so]]. Eda is worried that if the Witch Order finds out that they'll consider it blasphemy, considering that the Rule is a critical basis for most of the accepted theories and practices of Magic and a central pillar for Witch cultures, and won't stop until they've erased every single trace that Luz ever existed.


Added DiffLines:

** When Luz discovers the light glyph, she immediately calls it a "glyph" instead of a "ritual circle" like Eda had demonstrated earlier, the name just feeling right to her, and Eda finds the term catchy enough that she adopts it as well.


Added DiffLines:

* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Eda was planning to send Luz home with her memories of the Isles erased after she realized that she couldn't learn Magic and gave up.


Added DiffLines:

** The ritual circles remind Luz of transmutation circles from ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'', and that plus a quote from the series being magically relevant makes her and Eda wonder if the creator is a Witch in disguise.


Added DiffLines:

* TheyWouldCutYouUp: One of Eda's concerns after Luz does magic through the light glyph is that some unscrupulous Witches might desire to experiment on her if the news gets out.

** Luz is learning Soul Wavelength from Maka in addition to learning about Magic in the Isles. She finally manages to figure out how to connect to the former in Chapter 28. Later, after finding the light glyph, she she discovers by chance that she can use her Soul Wavelength to cast it without needing a physical glyph.

Added DiffLines:

** The Snaggleback in this AU ''was'' once genuinely the terrifying monster King described him as, though years of imprisonment and lack of access to human Souls has caused him to lose this power, in contrast to canon where there was never indication that he ever lived up to the hype.


Added DiffLines:

** King's demon knowledge gets more focus, even if some of it ''is'' kind of outdated affected, like the description of the Snaggleback, or affected by his biases.


Added DiffLines:

** In this AU, the Snaggleback once feasted on human Souls, and even though Luz freed him from the Conformatorium he desires her Soul, to the point that he hides in the Owl House in the hopes of getting the chance to go after her, despite the fact that his decline means that it's a stretch to think that he could even hurt her.


Added DiffLines:

** Later, after the Venice incident, Liz and Patty, being familiar with trauma from their time on the streets, correctly point out that Soul and Maka were deeply affected by the event, while Black Star counters by rightly pointing out how stubborn the two students are and that they shouldn't be underestimated.


Added DiffLines:

** It takes a few chapters before Luz is clued into the fact that Eda and King genuinely thought that Luz being able to cast true Magic like a Witch, instead of just using the Magic inherent in objects as a Sorcerer does, was impossible. Of course, she promptly proves them wrong.


Added DiffLines:

** Hooty once tried Eda's elixir and found it absolutely disgusting.

Added DiffLines:

* AgeLift: A number of Owl House characters are much older than in canon, fitting how Soul Eater Witches can live for centuries. For instance, Eda notes that she's had her curse for ''centuries'' at least by the time of the story.


Added DiffLines:

* BecomingTheMask: Eda initially only intended to string Luz along in regards to learning magic while the girl did some chores and errands for her, and send her home when she gave up in frustration with just a few lessons in Soul Wavelength manipulation. Instead, she found herself growing genuinely fond of the teen, and enjoyed teaching her.


Added DiffLines:

** The first rule of Magic is that only Witches and Demons can truly use it, and the best a human Sorcerer can do is utilize the magic in tools and objects. Luz managing to [[InstantRunes use her Soul Wavelength to cast a light glyph]] to defend herself against the Owl Beast, without needing to use a physical glyph drawing, proves that wrong.


Added DiffLines:

** Liz and Patty, due to growing up on the streets, can easily tell that Maka is putting on a brave face and that what happened in Venice ''seriously'' affected her, and Soul as well.


Added DiffLines:

* InstantRunes: Luz discovers in Chapter 32 that she can use her Soul Wavelength to cast a glyph without a physical drawing, though it takes a lot more effort to do so than using the paper.


Added DiffLines:

* WhamEpisode: Chapter 32 not only has Luz learn the light glyph like in canon, but Luz discovers that she can [[InstantRunes forgo the need for a drawing by using her Soul Wavelength]], which is supposed to be impossible.

* DealWithTheDevil: It's possible for a person to trade their Soul to a Demon in exchange for power, resulting in a Warlock. These Warlocks usually act as proxies their masters use to close in on potential feeding grounds.



** Hunter is ''terrified'' when he realizes that not only is he captured and behind enemy lines in Death City, but that he's under the not-so-tender care of Medusa Gorgon.



** Medusa counters Eda; both deal with a seemingly-human child, but while Eda starts to have genuine affection towards Luz and at least teaches her about Soul Wavelength manipulation, if not magic, Medusa cares nothing for Crona and uses and abuses them casually.

Added DiffLines:

* HeroicRROD: Eda, already strained from holding up the barrier against the Boiling Rain for over a day and using a sensory deprivation spell to help Luz find her Soul Wavelength, both uses illusion magic to hide how tired she is ''and'' give Luz a crash course in Magic. As a result, when she reaches her limit with the light spell, she ends up coughing up blood and ultimately collapsing.

Added DiffLines:

* UnequalRites: A Witch is born with Magic, while knowing how to use magical tools only make you a Sorcerer. Eda staunchly insists on the distinction, and Hunter gets positively irate when Spirit calls him a Sorcerer.

Added DiffLines:

* PainfulTransformation: In this AU Eda's Owl Beast transformations are a ''lot'' more graphic and painful, and if it wasn't for the same side effects of the curse that let her survive her head being chopped off if the cut is clean, she'd probably be an invalid or dead from the damage even a failed shift.


Added DiffLines:

* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: Eda figures out that Luz has ties to the DWMA because she uses the phrase "A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body", which the Reaper has practically adopted as his scripture, combined with the other evidence.

* GoalOrientedEvolution: According to King in Chapter 27, the physical biology of Demons is much more in-tune with their Souls than animals, Humans, or even Witches, so as they age and eat they change and evolve based on what they ''want'' to become. There will always be ''some'' sign of the Demon's original form though, and eating souls helps speed up the process.

** Lilith makes a short appearance when Bump contacts her about Luz's infiltration of Hexside, a full episode before she first appeared in "Covention".


Added DiffLines:

* AllMythsAreTrue: As in Owl House canon, many if not all of Earth's myths and legends are based, at least in part, on things that leaked from the Demon Realm to the human world. For example, [[WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty Maleficent]] is a historical figure who, according to Gus, has a ''dedicated section'' in the history books, while humans think that she's just a character from a fairy tale.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Demonization}}: Eda is positively TheDreaded to Willow and Gus when they first lay eyes in here in this story, the kids recalling tales of her doing things like laying waste to entire ''cities'', but what we have seen from her so far makes it clear that many if not all of those tales are at least exaggerated if not outright falsehoods.
