[Open on the sun panning down to show Luz, Izuku, Eda and King standing on a beach]

Eda: Well, Luz! [Elbows her] Did you ever in your life thinking you'd see something as breathtaking as this?

[Eda gestures to the corpse of a trash slug that towers over them. It's surrounded by trash and muck. Flies audibly buzz around the corpse]

Izuku: I can taste how bad it smells

Luz: [shaking her head] I don't like this [plugs her nose]

Eda: [walks to the trash slug] Yes, it doesn't get much more inspiring than the trash slug. It makes a home, a life from what others have thrown by the wayside. [Pulls a rubber Chicken from the trash slug's mouth] Until, blam, it gets blasted by a wave one day and croaks from all the salts and then we get to sell the stuff it ate. [She pulls out to pickaxe]

Izuku: Please don't make me

Luz: Yeah, same

King: [walking away] Aw, come on, Luz. [Unfurls a towel] It's not every day you get to go to the dump and pick apart a garbage carcass

Eda: Ah, nuts to you three

[Eda swings the pick at the trash slug]

Luz: So, Eda...

[Glass shatters]

Luz: What if we tried some new lessons for my and Izuku's apprenticeship? Like...

[Something crashes]

Luz: Read ancient scrolls or mix together potions or--

Eda: [while tossing things from the trash slug's mouth] Ugh. That sounds like a bunch of magic school stuff

Luz: Wait. Is there a magic school here? Like, winding towers, cute uniforms, dark plots that threaten your life kind of magic school?

Izuku: (I think me and Camila needs to stop buying her those Cynthia Coven books) If there is a magic school, can I attend there?

Eda: No. What's worse, they force you to learn magic the "proper" way. But magic isn't proper. It's wild and unpredictable and that's why it's so beautiful. I didn't finish school, and look at me! Who wouldn't envy where I am right now?

Izuku: (I mean I am)

[Flies are flying around the pile of trash Eda is currently standing in. Luz's expression falls]

Eda: Uh... Hey, here's a lesson [drops her pick] A great witch is resourceful, [stick Luz's hand in a puddle of trash slug bile] like this.

[Eda drags Luz's hand back and forth before letting go. Luz continues digging until she pulls something out]

Luz: Oh, hey. Greasy slime ball.

Izuku: I think you just caught every disease known and unknown to man

Eda: [Closes Luz's hands around the slime ball] Use your slime ball wisely, young witch.

Luz: Actually, it's okay [starts backing away] I think me and Izuku will head home and look at pictures of animals that are still......alive. Love you, King [Pets his belly]

[King giggles]

Luz: You little beach peach

[Luz and Izuku continue walking into the woods as King sighs]

Eda: [shrugs] More for me, then

[She climbs into the trash slug, sending several things clattering]
