#willow just needs to beat amity into a pulp like once and then i think theyll be fine.

Thinking about that anon ask about young Amillow in the princess au.

After their arranged breakup tm Willow's view of the castle and The Princess/then Empress shifting over the years. That she must be exactly like the sort of person Amity has become over the course of school, cold, calculating and cruel, coming to dread it when she gets her apprenticeship with Snapdragon. Only to find when actually meeting Luz that... no she's nothing like that.

Full on expecting a castle full of people that are just "Amity at her worst" (and in fairness that would describe a lot of people there, like Amity's roommates) expecting that obviously The Empress will be the worst one there, meanwhile Luz is still Luz in all her gentle brightness in spite of everything that's happened, still shining in spite of all the pain. Hunter is -though simultaneously a bitey angry overprotective wet cat- a surprisingly massive nerd once he lets his guard slip for one second, and even Amity sucks reasonably less than she did before and just looks at her with nothing but a sense of overwhelming longing and guilt.

AW. LOVE ALL OF THIS. thinking about hunter in the context of willow and amity delights me tbh. willow initially being like "okay, i've heard you're either her boyfriend or just her friend and i Don't Trust Like That" & avoiding him, and then she sees them argue n is like Hello. & hunter is like omg willow you have issues with her too?? i'm dying to shit-talk amity PLEASE have lunch with me.

and THEN willow makes some passing comment to him like "i'm surprised she backs off of you so quickly honestly, she must be really scared of you???" and hunter is like hahaha nah she's all bark and no bite. well. these days, anyway.

willow: .....these days??

hunter: oh you should've SEEN what she was like when she first joined the coven. wait no who am i kidding. it's you. You Know . You Know Her Whole Deal,
