#the wittebane family

Living in the human realm... - [Part One]

"The literature teacher, Philip Wittebane and his nephew, Hunter Wittebane" - Some random student from the school.

Philip Wittebane ended up in the human realm by accident along with his nephew, Hunter; With no way to return, Philip took his name back and began a new life in the city.

Philip became a literature teacher, specializing in various scientific areas; he's his nephew's doctor because he'll never risk them finding out the truth.

Philip has been aging due to the absence of magic that keeps him young and alive; he resigned himself to it when he noticed how his appearance changed over the years.

Living in the human realm forced Philip to hide information about magic from his nephew, using a magical jewel to disguise it; this didn't need much energy and kept it hidden his appearance.

Hunter is Luz's best friend, being that they are neighbors, they spent a lot of time playing together, and he was going to accompany Luz to summer camp, when they notice Owlbert and start chasing him.

Camila arrives to see how both children disappeared behind the door and asks Philip what's happening; somehow they manage to go to the Boiling Isles without the portal.

"So, you're the ruler of this place" - Camila Noceda.

Practically, the adventure of the Noceda family and the Wittebane family in the Boiling Isles...

obsessed with villains who you just KNOW are aware deep down in their heart that they've done something unforgivable, but the only way to never admit that or face the guilt is to keep doing it over and over again until they don't feel guilty about that first time anymore

#sky speaks #i am contemplating walter white and phillip wittebane #if i never admit it even to myself #then i can go on living like this forever #phillip says as he kills his brother again #as walter white orders the death of another person 'for his family' #and sure they do LIKE the power #but i just knowww it burns sometimes

i’ve seen a few people claim Philip stripped caleb’s jacket off his body after his death as some morbid memento, but we already have his memories on the matter and he had caleb’s jacket pre-fight and was wearing it when he first arrived.

even in his shadow form you can make out he’s wearing the coat.

Not to mention caleb is never seen wearing it in any of the memories on the isles

Nah, as much as i know people love finding new ways to make philip even more morbid, if the story holds any weight, and it probably does, it seems far more likely caleb left it back on earth with philip. There’s no evidence to suggest philip stole it or rid him of it, but that caleb ditched it when he left.

and when philip assumed a witch kidnapped his brother, he put it on, probably as a form of comfort and keeping his brother close at a time where he assumed the worst could have happened to him. Kinda in the same vein of how luz was wearing eda’s jacket to keep her close during their separation.

It seems to be quite an important object to him, being what looks like his only link left to caleb as he was on earth. With the thought he also grew his hair out to have a ponytail like his older brother it appears to be less like “Stealing” and way more like a sign of what was originally his admiration and love for his brother.

A strong desire to be close to him and be like him through his appearance, tho only the version of him that he remembers best, which was the one back on earth...not the one that left him for the isles,

(Which def fuels even more why he didn’t appreciate luz insulting it, because it was basically also insulting the brother he’s trying so hard to recreate, the one that didn’t leave him)

This isn’t even out of character that philip likes to keep mementos of his brother, he even seems to have taken his old childhood mask his brother made him to the isles judging by his memories. Tho i’m sure the jacket holds more significance because it was caleb’s first specifically.

I think it’s definitely easy now to accuse Philip of every bad thing ever, and his obsession with his brother screams serious attachment issues. But it doesn’t appear he had that jacket on originally for anything but genuine love and care for him, at first at least.

There’s no evidence to suggest caleb told philip he was leaving, or any evidence that he even tried to talk to his brother about what was going on with him. As far as we know, he left, and philip, from his pov, went out to save the person he considers his entire world from what he believes might kill and/or hurt him.

And if philip wasn’t the villian of the show, i think a lot more people would be willing to sympathize with that part of his character.

His relationship with his brother has both a lot of resentment for leaving him behind and alone, but also a lot of the original love and admiration for him he held for years.

But with the knowledge he only became a hunter because he felt he needed to fit in with society for survival purposes, combined with the fact caleb was his only family and caretaker...while only being a few years older then him at the very least....you can see how this probably fueled so many of his issues.

Wanted to make a post about this cause while he deserves the crap for the bad stuff he actually does, it’s at least worth mentioning at one point he was just a naïve child raised in a bad community who originally just wanted to keep the one person he loved the most....safe.

and at one point, that jacket was not some morbid prize he got for what he did, or something he seemingly stole, or him trying to steal his brother’s look, it was originally just something he wore....because he did love him.

And to this day, he still kept it.

#the owl house #toh #emperor belos #philip wittebane #caleb wittebane #i think it;s important to hold him responsible for the things he did do and not the things we can confirm he didn't #not everything involving his brother seems to come from some evil energy #he was a child with only his brother to take care of him the fact he cares about him and is this attached isn't honestly that shocking tbh #he just ended up taking it to a MAX #tho yeah if my only family suddenly upped and left and started a new life and left me i'd hold some resentment too #he's at fault for what he did but TTT def sheds more light on why he ended up feeling this way in the first place for sure

In all honesty, it was pretty obvious that Luz was never going to only live on either the Boiling Isles or the Human Realm. This entire show has been about not putting yourself in just one box (or in Eda's word not being a "one witch, one coven"). She chose every class in Hexside and she has a shape shifting Palisman. Her family consists of a human mom, a deceased father, a basilik sister, a Grimwalker brother, a witch mother, and a Titan brother.

Luz is not tied to one thing because everything is her thing.

#toh #the owl house #luz noceda #toh spoilers #toh season 3 spoilers #toh watching and dreaming #the same thing also can apply to hunter #he's not tied down to just *one* family #he's a deamonne #he's a noceda #he's a clawthorne #he's a wittebane #he's all of the above #he's none of the above

Did anyone ever convince Philip/Belos to wear a dress/skirt at one point? Or does he try it at some point on his own without prompting?

Firstly: If anyone had the ability to convince Philip/Belos to wear a skirt/dress, it would have been Ophelia Wittebane.

Ophelia hates skirts and dresses, because according to her, all these things were impediments in a fight/chase and Ophelia hates it very much not having adequate reaction mobility.

Ophelia proceeds to complain to her uncle Belos, who sighs knowing full well that it was an excuse; if she didn't like wearing such clothes, she can tell him directly without having to make such excuses.

At such words, Ophelia gets angry exclaiming that doing such activities mentioned above is impossible.

Philip proceeds to accept a challenge, to prove to his niece that it is possible; Ophelia will accept, and both will go to do a series of activities.

Belos is able to perform the activities without much hassle, he can run fast, take on multiple opponents, and do a chase without losing speed.

The attire is not an impediment...

Emperor Belos has quite a bit of skill due to practice; that is why he's aware that such actions can be done as long as someone has gotten used to it.

The emperor's attire consists of several layers of heavy clothing, which makes movement difficult, but Belos has grown accustomed to fighting and running in such clothing.

His mobility with normal clothes is better and more skillful; and he's quite proud of it.

Secondly: If Philip had decided on his own to wear a dress/skirt, it would have been so that he could attend his brother's funeral.

After what happened between the two, Philip was not well received by his sister-in-law and her children.

Dressing like this was the best way to say goodbye to his brother for the last time...

After all, they were looking for an old-looking human, and not someone who looked like a witch; he was simply able to camouflage himself among the gathered crowd...

It really is true that you can achieve so much by being autistic in academia. Not in the "hidden antisocial genius" way but in the "I brought up the Inquisition in all of my exams and got 31/30 in all of them" way
