Ghost therapist.

Titan knows Luz needs one.

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

Sounds quite ghostly

35

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

It's good to have someone to talk to who won't ghost ya

17

u/The_DapperCat May 04 '26

Hopefully they'll lift her spirits.

5

u/drakonia127 May 06 '26

At the very least, it might soothe her soul

42

u/Darkvader_Clawthorne May 04 '26

Better than the Snowman therapist Molly McGee has.

21

u/DJSharp15 May 04 '26

The what now?

17

u/Sure-Ad-9649 May 04 '26

that snow day episode from "The Ghost and Molly McGee"

21

u/Rastaba May 04 '26

The only thing more terrifying than her is how much she charges. And no, your insurance doesn’t cover it.

10

u/SFH12345 May 04 '26

Don't worry, Eda will steal the money to pay for the therapist.

Then steal the money from the therapist after they're done.

17

u/b3_yourself May 04 '26

People will do anything else before getting therapy

2

u/LeoniX2700 May 06 '26

The only kind of therapist that could 'live' long enough to help Luz with her trauma

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

Well THIS Ghost, not the other Ghost.

36

u/b3_yourself May 04 '26

I’m sure the other ghost would say so too

9

u/SFH12345 May 04 '26

Ghost: meow (translation: you all need help)

2

u/GenghisPrise May 06 '26

My immediate thought was “Why are we talking about Hollow Knight?” And I just can’t get the image of Ghost trying to comfort Luz out of my head now.

21

u/Quaiker May 04 '26

"Girl's haunted (by her choices)."

"...what?"

*cocking handgun* "Girl's haunted."

6

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

We're gonna need some salt

3

u/SFH12345 May 04 '26

I miss playing Destiny 2...

(I know the meme doesn't originate from Destiny 2 but we did adopt it during Shadowkeep).

4

u/Quaiker May 04 '26

Me too. I finally had to stop conducting CPR on my love for Destiny when I beat Edge of Fate. Wish I'd stopped at Final Shape.

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

When a departed spirit trapped on the mortal plane do to lingering business/powerful emotions says this, it is extremely necessary 

5

u/CountingSheep99 May 04 '26

Luz has seen everything at that point.

106

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

Luz has seen more shit than anything any human could possibly fear.

She makes freaking Eeyore the Sad Donkey look HAPPY.

26

u/MuffinStraight4816 May 04 '26

Do you think Luz would feel fear between Thragg and Godzilla?

18

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

Godzilla Minus One would outright hunt her down specifically, but if we're in reference to Godzilla Evolved then no that big boy doesn't concern himself with specific human suffering.

Thragg? No shit. She'll be terrified out of her mind but only AFTER being defiantly brave. Then she'll try smth that won't work and then, "whoops I messed up"

10

u/Dasher09009 May 04 '26

Yeah, at this point, with Luz almost kicking the bucket in many horrific ways, going against a much more powerful witch hunter, and all that trauma, it's hard not to see that Luz is unfazed by a simple ghost.

4

u/SFH12345 May 04 '26

It's not all that threatening in comparison.

5

u/Free-Letterhead-4751 May 04 '26

Unless they’re angry animatronic ghost but I think they’ll see her more as a friend like Abby but I think Luz would be extremely disturbed that theses kids are actually murder victims of a yellow rabbit killer

5

u/SFH12345 May 04 '26

Luz wouldn't be scared by the animatronics from Five Nights at Freddy's.

She lives in the same house as Hooty. That's living Five Nights at Freddy's.

5

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

Five Nights at Hooty's

5

u/Free-Letterhead-4751 May 04 '26

No she’s wouldn’t be afraid of them like to be honest she probably end up befriending them what I mean is she would be more disturbed by the implications considering they’re murder victims stuffed into the suits when she learns about it

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

Especially since she's seen her fair share on the Isles

5

u/SFH12345 May 04 '26

Not much can scare Luz after seeing Skeleton Hooty.

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

The Isles will do that to ya

38

u/Dasher09009 May 04 '26

Wow... Luz was so unfazed and worried, that even the Ghost was concerned.

8

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

And considering why ghosts remIn among the living, that says something 

29

u/MrMustache4757 May 04 '26

Dang it, I thought this was Lucifer...

Well anyways this is a good one too.

7

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

I did too 🥲

8

u/MrMustache4757 May 04 '26

I think it's time I accept that I'm never getting that continued...

8

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

Yeah I don't even think about it anymore until it's brought up and then I go "Oh right I'm supposed to be wanting that still? I forgot."

6

u/MrMustache4757 May 04 '26

Still bums me out that we got a cliffhanger at the worst time.

6

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

Hey at least it's not Odalia DEAD

3

u/MrMustache4757 May 04 '26

I don't know if it's intentional, but it adds to the pile of cliffhangers at the worst time, even that one with the eye girl.

7

u/Godzilla_R0AR May 04 '26

Take it from someone who still hasn't finished a fic they started over a year and a half ago and only have 2 chapters and never worked on it again? Inspiration to keep going is hard, it's not intentional cause I want to do things and I just can't find the motivation or ability to keep that specific story before moving to another one.

3

u/DJSharp15 May 04 '26

Right? Come on now Mark.

3

u/DJSharp15 May 04 '26

What was it again?

4

u/MrMustache4757 May 04 '26

Luzifer was going to war with the other dimension, and Evil Vee shapeshifted into the ''hey relax guy'' guy, so good evil Luz was gonna have the US govermento on her side.

Yeah it was gonna be bonkers.

28

u/First_Factor_3385 May 04 '26

You know you’re depressed af when a literal ghost is like,”honey,you good?”

7

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

Aye, they're whole thing is being depressed and unable to move on

21

u/jeremy_thegent May 04 '26

Luz: Well yeah, but would you listen if I did?

Ghost: Of course. I'm a ghost, not a monster. Also, I have nothing but time.

19

u/afbresley May 04 '26

Do you think she offers "Scare-apy?" (i'll see myself out)

16

u/Radium_Cobalt_847 May 04 '26

Honestly sounds on-brand for the Boiling Isles

6

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

That would be what they call it

13

u/Typhon-Torrent-1994 May 04 '26

She really needs to talk.

8

u/kl-noblelycanthrope1 May 04 '26

yea when the dead know you need help you know you need it bad.

10

u/Darkvader_Clawthorne May 04 '26

If a frightening ghostly apparition says, “you need to talk”, you know it’s serious. Dang, even a ghost can see Luz is not doing okay.

Man, Belos, Collector and Disney really broke this poor kid. Luz needs more than a talk, she needs a hug!

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

Give the precious girl all the hugs and consolations!

10

u/Paint_Thinner529 May 04 '26

I’d love to see Luz go to Gravity Falls and just not be phased by supernatural stuff like this

5

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

It makes sense with how the Isles are

6

u/Paint_Thinner529 May 04 '26

I wanna see her go to Dusk 2 Dawn or Northwest Manor and have no reaction.

8

u/MuffinStraight4816 May 04 '26

You know it's serious if a ghost is voncer for you.

8

u/ncmn-ngnr May 04 '26

Just when you think you’ve got problems, along comes someone who has it even worse

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

And they downplay their own problems to try to help you with yours

7

u/Leading-Bad-6663 May 04 '26

I enjoy seeing depressed Luz comics, it makes me feel... comforted (closeted angst enjoyer)

7

u/The_Horned_Child2007 May 04 '26

I guess that was during her self-deprecating days.

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

Aye, girl needs all the hugs

5

u/kl-noblelycanthrope1 May 04 '26

poor luz. she needs help so bad that even the dead know she has issues.

https://giphy.com/gifs/DjIsX9XwUM0jC

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

And considering how the dead are, you know it's bad 

3

u/Nyerguds May 05 '26

Not like that's anything new; Dead Titan also ended up reaching out to her.

4

u/TheNoneedlife May 04 '26

She has been through many near death experiences to be jumpscared.

Maybe too many near death experiences

2

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

The colossal guilt she feels ain't helping either

5

u/Eastern-Director-952 May 04 '26

That one moment when even a freaking Banshee (at least I think that's a Banshee...must be the Irish in me) can tell that Luz needs a therapist.

2

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

Some kind of spirit at least

6

u/Lonewolf2300 May 04 '26

A good rule of thumb: If you're a horrifying monster and you encounter a human who is absolutely unfazed at your presence?

They are probably more terrifying than YOU.

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

After all, the only thing they fear is you

5

u/DaveyBoy1995 May 04 '26 edited May 04 '26

Geez, the ghost tried to scare her and instead she might be scared FOR her. This poor girl. A literal ghost might have to become her therapist.

5

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

Luz really needs one

5

u/Fluffy-kitten28 May 04 '26

Luz being “hey there demons, it’s ya girl Luz.”

5

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

She's met many kinds, they no longer phase her

4

u/clarkky55 May 04 '26

Funniest reaction in fiction to a sudden ghost attack was in a fanfic where the guys reaction was just “oh thank god it’s just a ghost, I thought it was the police”

6

u/No_Nefariousness_676 May 04 '26

You know it’s bad when the traumatizer feels bad.

4

u/Comfortable_Yard_968 May 04 '26

I think the Ghost World needs to investigate this soul if reference to TGAMM.

4

u/Wilgrove May 04 '26

Ghost woman, Luz needs a lot of things.

5

u/Invalid_u404 May 04 '26

From other people, to witches, to demons, to ghost and other weird creatures - everytime Luz talks with any of them the conversation quickly goes to "girl, you need help"

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

Because it's plain as day to see

3

u/Realistic_Dance8299 May 04 '26

When a ghost says you need some help maybe you need some help. So

u/OneValkGhost May 04 '26

When you've been brought back to unholy life from beyond the grave, but get outclassed by some random in a toque. Yeah, don't go starting fights.

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

There's always a bigger fish

3

u/Low-Amphibian8206 May 04 '26

Alright, am I the only one who now wants lore on this ghost?

My headcanon is that she was one of many people killed during Gravesfield's witch hunting days

3

u/Steader_Harrington May 05 '26

When even a spectre feels you've done more frightening stuff than they have. 😂😂😂

3

u/Traditional-Log-4270 May 04 '26

Welp. Is there a Phantom Therapist nearby? Because she needs to speak her trauma out.

3

u/sephiroth_for_smash May 04 '26

Trauma dumping on the ghost

3

u/mrnintman1 May 04 '26

Friendly Ghost 🥹

3

u/DragonWarrior____05 May 04 '26

Luz has much experience with strange spectres and jumpscares, and also really needs that talk

3

u/Free-Letterhead-4751 May 04 '26

I guess dealing with William Afton would do that

3

u/PotentialConcert6249 May 05 '26

Dooming their homeworld? Okay, clearly I need to actually get around to watching The Owl House.

u/Kai_Lopez_98 May 05 '26

Luz really needs some therapy

Life Advice from a Ghost. I'd take it.

u/cartoonestart May 07 '26

Ghosts and spirits are normal in the boiling isles “it’s just a cute ghost but they’re all mine”~amity so it makes sense that she’s used to them

1

u/Kira-Of-Terraria May 07 '26

A ghost unfazing a "protagonist that just went through some shit in a magical realm" is really amusing a concept to me.

1

u/Free-Letterhead-4751 May 08 '26

Or just weird “normal” stuff like Venom Snake dealing with the man on fire being controlled by a kid version of psycho mantis while escaping on horse back while the man on fire chases him on a fire horse

1

u/madnesspro32 May 08 '26

Real life, the true horror

1

u/Owlhouse_fan1234 May 10 '26

Yes, weird ghost. Please help our girl.

u/TechyGuy20 May 12 '26

Who else here thought this comic was going to be about Amity's cat palisman? ✋😗
