#my native Hunter hc is north west coast

[athena-xox]

I think one of my biggest grievances with huntlynn is hunters portrayal.

Because the thing that annoyed me so much was his view of not wanting to harm animals (which I mean now that I think about it if they can talk…) but him not giving a flying fuck about cutting down trees

LIKE HELLO

INSANE

I was raised with indigenous ideals of eating meat ETHICALLY. so if you hunt a deer, you eat all the meat, you use the skin, you use the fur so you’re not being wasteful

You also have to be considerate of which trees you’re cutting down so as to not ruin the whole forest

Someone please give me native Hunter who instead of going against his parents views, challenges Ashlynn’s Eurocentric because in the real world at least, vegan options can be just as bad and non ethical as not vegan options if not worse

Native Hunter is my favourite headcanon because the amount of Hunter’s I know from the rez? That’s an indigenous name I mean COME ON.

Also imagine how cute it would be for him to make cedar baskets for Ash </3

Anyways I know that this was unrealistic for me as a kid to want (I live in a town where the population is 60% aboriginal and growing up I assumed the rest of the worlds population was the same… not knowing that 60% of Americans think the indigenous don’t exist anymore? crazy work) but PLEASE I need to see this in the fandom more often.

Plus Hunter is semi canonically poc
