Raven Aunt is the family between Lilith Clawthorne and Luz Noceda from The Owl House fandom.
Canon[]
Luz first met Lilith in "Covention," as she learns that her witch mentor as an older sister she hasn't spoken to in years. At first Luz was amazed by that discovery, untill she learns that Lilith was sent to capture her own sister for Emperor Belos. This had Luz view Lilith as an enemy who wishes to warm Eda. When Luz had body swapped with Eda and got arrested by coven scouts, thinking that she is the Owl Lady when Lilith was informed of "Eda's" arrest, Luz learns from Lilith that Eda had once wanted to join the Emperor's Coven when the sisters were young. This surprised Luz and didn't like the way Lilith tried to brand "Eda" when she refused to join the coven willy, before she made her escape and met back up with the others to re-swap their bodies back to normal again. Lilith's mission to capture Eda got her to see that her sister has grown very close with her human ward and decides to use Luz as a means to bring Eda to them. Luz had tried to tell Lilith that she needed the healing hat to cure Eda from her curse, but Lilith's blind loyalty to Belos and believing that only he can heal her younger sister was what got Lilith to destroy the hat, before capturing Luz. While getting Willow Park and Gus Porter to inform Eda that she has Luz. Who could only watch as the two sisters duel one another, before Luz tries to find a way to escape. Lilith, however, put Luz's life in danger so she can provoke Eda into pushing her magic to her limit, until her curse transforms her back into the Owl Beast. After words and with the coven head having no further use for the young human, Lilith lets Luz go before she brings the captured Eda to her Emperor. When Luz had watched Lilith fight Eda, she overheard Lilith slip out the fact that she was the one who cursed Eda. Luz confronts Lilith of what she did to Eda when she and King went to save her. As the two ended up in the human realm, Lilith tells Luz why she cursed Eda and that she regrets her past actions, as she wants to help Luz to save Eda before she gets petrified. To prove that she can be trusted, Lilith gives Luz Eda's Owl Steff. Seeing its palisman, Owlbert unharmed and that Lilith does wish to make amends, Luz decides to trust her as they team up to save Eda. Even though they got found by Belos who separated Luz from Lilith and King, leaving Luz to save them as well after she was forced to give Belos the portal to the human realm. That Luz damages to keep him from using it for whatever he has planned. Once they were all back at the safety of the Owl House, Luz watches Lilith use a spell to place half of Eda's curse into herself to apologies for what she has done. Lilith's actions of love for her sister had weakened her magic, unlucky Luz has discovered another way to use magic and promises to teach it to both Clawthorne sisters.
With Lilith being unable to return back to the Emperor's Coven, she moves into the Owl House and becomes part of Luz's makeshift family. Where Luz helps Lilith to adjust to their way of life. Lilith mainly enjoyed learning about Glyph magic from Luz and is amazed with the discoveries she has made during her time in the Owl House. While Luz is happy that Lilith is excelling at Glyph magic and is understanding the elements that have helped Luz to create combo glyph spells, like the one that can turn them invisible. This has Lilith being impressed by Luz and is happy to know that the young human has expected her, despite her past actions towards Luz and Eda. Luz was even surprised that Lilith has befriended Hooty and how close the two had become. When Lilith joins Luz on a trip to King's castle, she learns that there are past events that weren't in any of their documented history. Along with Lilith using the invisible glyph Luz showed her to fight the guardian creature they encountered on the island. Like with Eda, Luz sees Lilith struggling with the curse the sisters now share but is glad to know that Eda is there to help Lilith through it. Just as Luz tries to help Eda with hers. Despite the fun times Lilith has had in the Owl House with Luz and the other, she decides to leave them in order to catch up on lost time with her mother. Luz was sad to see her go, but was glad to know that Lilith has packed enough elixir to help her keep the curse at bay. Hooty's letters to Lilith help her to know how Luz and the others are doing since her departure.
Luz's mission to build a new portal to get home and knowing that Lilith is well informed about the Isles's documented history, she enlists Lilith's help to find a time portal that would take them to the past, in hopes of finding Philip Wittebane. With Belos getting Lilith fired from her new assistant job at the museum but still wants to create history exhibits, she agrees to help Luz meet Philip. When they found the human man Luz introduced Lilith as her aunt to him. Since Eda is like a second mother to Luz, she calls Lilith a cool fun aunt. A new given title Lilith has managed to live up to, much to Luz's surprise from how much Lilith has changed since she left the Owl House. Similar to what Luz had gone through with Eda during her early lesson days with the Owl Lady, Luz had trouble understanding the odd things Lilith tries to teach her. Until Luz later finds herself in a situation that reveals the important parts in the small details Lilith had shared with her. Knowing that Luz has been listening to her brings a tear of joy to Lilith's eye. When the two were helping Philip reach the Collector, Lilith had tried to warn Luz that there was something wrong and oddly familiar about the man, but Luz's excitement of meeting Philip kept her from hearing Lilith out, until it was too late. Luckily Lilith sharing her knowledge on the large ancient creature was what helped Luz to tame it, before getting it to give the two a ride to Philip. Who Lilith punches for trying to sacrifice them like their lives are expendable. Feeling betrayed and used by Philip was why Luz was happy with Lilith punching him in the face, before they headed back to their home time. Even though they didn't get what they were seeking on their trip to the past, Luz and Lilith did become much closer and were happy to be aunt and niece to one another.
After Lilith hears what Luz had learned in Belos's mind, she dashes to the Owl House to help her sister calm Luz. Knowing that she may feel guilty for helping Philip find the Collector, even though both of them were unaware that the human man would become Belos, or that he was secretly a witch hunter. Lilith saw the worry Eda has for Luz and King and promises her that everything would be alright, while the kids and Hooty went to find King's birth family. When Luz and her party returned from their trip, she was shocked to learn that the Isles are now hunting for her, Lilith and the rest of the Owl House family; and became worried for Lilith and Eda when she returned to an empty house. Luckily Luz found the note to where the sisters were hiding and went to join them at the knee. Lilith and Luz soon find themselves joining a rebel group called the C.A.T.s, who have been preparing to stop Belos for a while. Even though Luz was sent away from the danger, while Lilith helps the rest of their allies stop the draining spell. Only to be foiled by the Coven Heads, leaving Luz to be brought before Belos and then gets herself and her friends trapped in the human realm. Leaving the two being unaware of what happened to one another during the months they were separated.
Fanon[]
This section is in need of major improvement. Please help improve this article by editing it.
Because this friendship started at the end of season one and with the big gap between the two, it's what got fans to ship them as friends. Even though Lilith being an honorary member of the beloved Owl House Family and Lilith's younger sister becoming a mother-like figure to Luz, has got another group of fans to treat Raven Aunt as a familyship. Since Luz has called Lilith a fun aunt and Lilith has manged to live up to that when they travelled to the past. Sometimes in a role swap AU of Owl House, Lilith has her role swapped with Eda's so she can serve as the cursed witch that becomes close to the young human in her care. With Luz maintaining her canon role or has it swapped with another TOH character, depending on the version.
On AO3, the two have over 180 gen fanfics, as well as it having only less than 10 fics for when they feature Raven Aunt as a crack ship for a laugh. Even though Lilith being an aromantic and has no interest in dating, a fact that has fans steering clear of Lilith ships in general. Unless those ships focus on the bonds of friends and family than romance.
