Huntlow Isn't "Toxic", Here's Why

Let me just say that I’m not a big Huntlow shipper (though I do for a lot of Huntlow blogs for some reason lmao). I don’t dislike the ship or anything, it’s fine and Willow and Hunter make a decent couple, it’s just not as great as something like Lumity for instance. That being said though, I am genuinely baffled by the people going around saying the ship is toxic for having a “bad start”.

Like???? First of all, Hunter thought that the EC was good and he thought that he was doing them a favor by getting them into the EC because he was raised to believe it was good, sure the action itself is bad he clearly didn't realize what he was doing was wrong and first did mean well. Second of all (and most importantly), Hunter realized his mistake and went out of his way to fix it, directly risking his position in the EC to protect his freinds and fix his mistake. That's a pretty selfless thing to do yet people forget that for some reason.

Third, did y'all seriously forget how Lumity started??? Like, Amity was about to get Luz dissected, and she didn't go back to stop it like how Hunter fixed his mistake, and they were rivals for multiple episodes. So really, Lumity had a worse start than Huntlow. For Huntlow, yes Hunter did almost force them into joining a coven, however, he got along with Willow pretty well before that and helped her fyler derby team win, and again, the second he realized what he was doing was wrong, he went out of his away and put himself in danger in order to fix it.

It was still a rocky start, yes, but the ship isn't toxic just because they had a bad start, by that logic Lumity is toxic as well. "But Amity grew as a person and fixed her mistakes!", yes, she did, but uh, Hunter did too, except in a much shorter and faster amount of time. And Hunter wasn't a bad person like Amity was; he's not inherently evil, he's just brainwashed, the show shows that pretty clearly.

And just because a relationship starts out bad doesn't mean it can't get better, that's literally the foundation for enemies to lovers ship; those types of ships have bad starts by defult. Are all enemies to lovers ships toxic because they had a bad start? No. Because the story shows their relationship getting better. TOH did the same thing for Huntlow, it had a rocky start, but since Hunter went and fixed his mistake, the relationship is getting better. And by the end of the series since Hunter is redeemed now and he and Willow are on friendly terms, the relationship is pretty healthy.

There’s also the fact that Willow didn’t fully forgive Hunter after ASIAS, as In Labyrinth Runners, she doesn’t fully trust him until he mentions the breathing, thing, which is the proof she needed.

I just don’t see how anybody could look at Huntlow with a straight face and say it’s toxic, because as someone who had the displeasure of witnessing Stolitz, which is a HEAVILY toxic ship, Huntlow isn’t toxic. Not in the slightest.

Okay I’m gonna go on a big long rant about why Huntlow pisses me off so much. Honestly, Mod Willow, you don’t even have to post this if you don’t want to cuz I don’t wanna start more discourse, I just need to vent. Please note this is gonna be pretty messy just cuz I have a lot to say.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD I DO NOT SEE THE APPEAL OF THIS SHIP!! They have no chemistry on screen. It feels like watching two people be nice to each other out of politeness rather than out of actually enjoying the others company. It’s especially noticeably because Willow is naturally super affectionate/friendly, but all her interactions with Hunter feel super forced.

And don’t even get me started on the shippers. Too many of the shippers act like just cuz it’s canon, it means you HAVE to like it. When are people gonna learn that just because something is canon, doesn’t mean it’s good or well written?? The fan content might honestly be the worst part of it. 70% of Huntlow shippers, from what I’ve seen, don’t care about Willow at all. They just turn her into Hunter’s therapist or boil her down to “buff girlfriend” and it’s infuriating. It’s like they black out whenever Hunter isn’t on screen. And they even get him wrong too. So much Huntlow stuff turns Hunter is a “poor twaumatized wittle baby 🥺” and infantalize him, even though he is one of the strongest main characters there!! Yes, he is traumatized. But trauma doesn’t turn you into a helpless infant. There’s so much you could do to explore that in an interesting way, but I guess that’s too much work so let’s just infantilize him!!!!!

And the writing for it is a mess. “Of course it’s gonna be rushed/messy, the shortened season-“ THAT MAKES IT WORSE!!! They knew they had extremely limited time to finish the season, and they still wasted time on this stupid ship. The whole plot comes to a screeching halt just so they can focus on Hunter and Willow standing next to each other. For the Future is the worst example of this. That scene where Willow has her breakdown is awful and the writers should be embarrassed of it. Hunter is the worst person in the main cast to comfort her there. Literally anyone else would’ve been better. It could’ve been Amity, to finally give closure to their relationship and show that they’ve fully moved on from Amity’s past behavior (especially since Amity was one of the main people to make Willow feel like she was half-a-witch), or Gus, who also has magic-related breakdowns and was taught a coping mechanism for the BY WILLOW!! Or Luz, to show that, yes, they are indeed still friends, because I honestly forgot they were supposed to be best friends by then. They’ve had so few direct interactions for the past season and a half, it felt like they were strangers. But nooooo, it HAD to be Hunter. They literally had to keep Gus back with giant vines to keep it a huntlow moment (which is just another example of how Gus has been screwed by this series). Also, Hunter experienced one of the most horrific things to ever happen to him and lost his first friend mere hours ago, why are we already trying to push him into a relationship?? I’m not saying that traumatized people can’t be in relationships, that’s stupid. But I am saying that he needs some time to actually process what’s happened before immediately getting out into romantic scenes again. It just feels really gross.

The ship also just completely uprooted any and all of Willow’s development. Anytime she has a major moment in the series now HAS to be related to Hunter. It turned her from a character with a lot of cool potential development that seemed to actually be getting explored in season 2, into just Hunter’s Girlfriend. And I know this is a problem with Willow specifically because Hunter gets plenty of outstanding moments outside of this ship after it begins to be established. It feels like they didn’t know what else to do with her, so they just attached her to the closest male character.

And it’s just so amanormative/heteronormative. Note, this is not me calling it a straight ship, because it’s not. I know Willow is pan and Hunter is bi. But that doesn’t mean it can’t be heteronormative. Seriously, any and all moments of them even standing next to each other were taken by the fandom as “proof” it was gonna be canon. As I said before, Willow is super affectionate naturally. She loves her friends and isn’t afraid to show it. But when she does basic friend things with Hunter? They’re in love!! It’s obvious!! /sarc

Willow saves hunter from a deadly 200ft drop? True love. Willow doesn’t want to pummel hunter (or who she thinks is Hunter) to death with a giant vine? I hear wedding bells! Willow is distraught at the fact that her friend just tried to drown himself in a lake and is sad that he’s slowly dying? Could they be anymore obvious with how it’s canon?! Ignore the fact that literally everyone else there is also sad, it’s a huntlow moment!! And that hand holding scene in FTF…… literally so cringe inducing. Willow was holding hands with and celebrating with Amity five seconds ago, but now that she’s slightly touching Hunter’s hand? Canon! Undeniably canon! I can’t believe that made the cut into the final episode. It felt like watching a shitty fanfic written by a ten year old. They wasted precious time that could’ve been used to further the plot of the actual show.

I hate that you can’t go three feet into the owl house tag without seeing it, even if you block ten million tags relating to it. I’ve got ten different huntlow tags blocked and I still see it whenever I go into the tags. It’s infuriating. Just because it’s canon, doesn’t mean you don’t have to tag it anymore.

And back to the shippers, why do some of them just start throwing a tantrum every time they find out you don’t ship it? I’ve criticized the ship a little bit on my blog. Every time I do, I make sure to tag it so huntlow shippers specifically can avoid my posts, and encourage them to block me so they never have to see me ever again. And even with all that, anytime I criticize the ship even a little bit, I get an onslaught of huntlow shippers crying in my inbox/notes about how I’m missing the point, or just don’t get it, or how I should just block the tag. I do block the tag!! That is the first thing I did when I saw the ship was getting more popular!! Why don’t they take their own advice and block me? And they’re so condescending about it too. You don’t see me going onto anti-lumity or anti-raeda blogs and telling them how it’s their fault I disagree with them. Honestly, grow up.

Okay that’s all. Again, you don’t have to post this if you don’t wanna mod Willow. I just needed to rant.

Let’s Discuss: Lunter

Lunter is one of my favorite ships so it makes me upset to see the controversy that revolves around it. I will be giving my input to some of the comments that people say about the ship.

If anyone has any more questions/comments about this relationship, please submit them to me through an ask. I will answer them and add them to this “masterlist.”

Remember: This ship is all about the viewer’s perspective on the relationship. Everyone in the fandom views this differently and all opinions should be respected.

“Lumity/Huntlow Is Canon!”

While this is (partially) true, this should not be a reason to dislike ships consisting of Luz and Amity with other people. Remember that ships do not change canon. Lumity will always remain canon and Huntlow will always remaine Semi-canon.

The reason that I say Semi-Canon for Huntlow is because though they both have canon feelings for one another, they have not explicitly stated in the show that they are dating. Of course, things could be happening off-screen but the true definition of a canon relationship is if the two characters have stated that they have a relationship.

Of course, this means that Lunter is not canon since they have not dated, let alone shown romantic feelings to one another. This should be obvious but that is okay. A ship does not have to be canon to be shipped by the fandom.

“It’s Erasing Sapphic Representation”

Like I stated before, shipping something that is not canon does not effect canon. Lumity will still always be canon and I’m not trying to change that nor are some other Lunter shippers.

Yes, Dana worked hard to get sapphic content on her show but shipping Luz with a man within her age range is still valid. Luz is Bisexual, let her have her sexuality; I am saying this as a bisexual woman myself. Bisexual means attracted to two or more genders. Let Luz be bisexual.

Shipping Lunter would be bad if someone were to only see The Owl House for wlm relationships and not take into account that Lumity exists or dislike it for being a sapphic relationship.

“It is fatphobic.”

Shipping Hunter with characters that are not plus-sized is not against plus-sized characters at all; it is only fatphobic if the shipper does it because they dislike Willow or Huntlow for having a relation to a plus-sized character.

“Luz is fourteen and Hunter is sixteen.”

Fourteen and sixteen is an alright age gap for teenagers to be dating; it is a freshmen and a junior. It is not an uncommon age gap for teenagers to date. Also, by season three, Luz is fifteen because of the time skip. Fifteen and sixteen is a perfectly valid age gap for two people to date as well.

It is alright because it is a gap by two years, not three, four, or more.

“It is toxic.”

Lunter is not toxic at all. More importantly, the term “toxic” is way too overused that it feels as if people are forgetting the real definition of the term.

A toxic relationship is a relationship that makes one feel unsupported, misunderstood, demeaned, or attacked. A relationship is toxic when someone’s well-being is threatened in some way—emotionally, psychologically, and even physically.

Throughout Luz and Hunter’s screentime, they have not shown any signs of toxicity. They have not hurt each other. Before anyone mentions Hunting Palismen, just remember: Luz slapping Hunter did not have an intent of harming him, she just wanted him to wake up. Hunter was too shocked to process it and he did not get triggered. They did not ever purposely attempt to mistreat each other and make each other feel unsafe.

By Season 3, they had a perfectly healthy relationship and both supported one another. Luz did care about Hunter when he cried in Thanks To Them, she just didn’t want to overload him with emotions nor shame him for crying which is why she was so “bland” during that scene. Keep in mind, she was also dealing with her own problems so she was neutral during that entire episode.

“It is homophobic and heteronormative.”

Lunter is not homophobic nor heteronormative. Just because Lunter is a straight-passing ship does not mean those who enjoy it are all people who believed in heteronormativity. Remember that straight-passing relationships are not straight relationships, they’re just a woman and man dating. If you go by the rule that wlm relationships are heteronormative, then Huntlow would be equally as bad, which neither Lunter nor Huntlow is bad.

While there are problematic Lunter shippers, we do not accept those shippers at all. Those shippers that classify Lunter as a heterosexual ship and/or discard of Luz’s bisexuality are not welcomed here.

“Hunter needs to deal with his own trauma before getting into a relationship.”

Just because someone has trauma doesn’t mean that they should be forbidden from entering relationships. You can believe that Hunter is aroace or shouldn’t be shipped, but that does not mean you should prevent others from shipping him. He can still be in a relationship.

Significant others can help people with their trauma. They can assure that the one suffering is safe and give them validation. Luz would most certainly help Hunter since she had her own trauma; they can help each other.

“They are siblings.”

Oh, boy. I’ve been waiting to cover this one since it gets on my nerves.

This is all up to interpretation. All sibling relationships are different: some siblings act like Luz and Hunter, some do not.

The show is completed and neither Camila nor Eda have adopted Hunter or discussed wanting to adopt him. Hunter being adopted by Camila is not canon since it has never been stated inside of the show.

Feel free to headcanon them as siblings if you wish but remember that those are headcanons, not canon.

“But Luz referred to Hunter as family” people may say. Yes, she did say “You’re family now” in Thanks To Them, but you have to consider that there are many different ways that could be interpreted.

First of all, she is Afro-Latina. Some Latinx people refer to their close ones as family and not actually mean that they view them as family. I am Filipina, which is another nationality that does things like this. Would I consider my best friend a sibling to me? No, they’re just friends but due to our closeness, I call them family.

Also, she could have meant it as in found family. The definition of found family is “a group of characters find themselves united in a family-bond based on shared experiences, mutual understanding, and interpersonal connection” not family family. Hunter and Luz being found family does not make them siblings.

“All of these reasons are invalid. You do know fiction affects reality, correct?”

Fiction does affect reality, yes, since people may attempt to copy what they see on the media, but keep in mind this is not illegal. I’m stating that Luz and Hunter are not siblings since Camila and Eda have not canonically adopted Hunter. They may appear to have a sibling bond to some viewers but not have a sibling bond to others.

“You stated that some things are all about perspective, right? Then would you be fine with shipping Amity with men, specifically Amiter?”

Of course not. Amity is a canon lesbian while Luz is bisexual. The only time Amiter is valid is if the shipper genuinely headcanons Hunter as a transgender woman or non-binary.

With Amity being a canon lesbian, it has been confirmed in the show since the notebook in Thanks To Them had a lesbian heart (and bisexual heart for Luz) on the notebook.

How I view things being canon is if it was shown in the show, not any tweets outside of the show since those are technically interpretations from the team on the characters. This is just how I view it personally, this does not go for everyone.

Yes, Raine is still non-binary. They use they/them pronouns in the show.

“Do you ship adoptive siblings and headcanon that they’re not siblings and just close?”

No, I do not. That is very problematic and no one should do that since in canon the two characters the person are shipping are still siblings. Blood does not matter in legal family. The final has aired and Camila (and Eda) have not adopted or discussed adopting Hunter. This proves that Luz and Hunter are not siblings.

Recap

Lunter is neither erasing sapphic representation from the show nor is it homophobic. Not shipping Luz and Amity is not changing the canon content of the show; Lumity will still and always be canon. It would be a problem, though, if someone were to ship Lunter just because they dislike Lumity for being LGBTQIA+ and/or sapphic (WLW). It is okay to ship Luz and Amity with other people as long as you don’t ship Amity with men.

Luz is bisexual, meaning she is attracted to two or more genders. She should be allowed to be bisexual and she should be allowed to date men.

Shipping Amity with men would, in fact, be homophobic since it has been explicitly stated in the show that she is lesbian from a photo that had a lesbian heart next to her (with a bisexual heart next to Luz). Amity and Hunter would be okay only if you were to headcanon Hunter as a transgender woman or non-binary and genuinely mean it.

Luz and Hunter can help each other with their trauma. Their trauma should not be a reason to not get into a relationship. Keep in mind that Lumity is still canon though Luz has trauma.

Lunter is only fatphobic if it is shipped by someone who holds a grudge against Willow or Huntlow for Willow being plus-sized. Most shippers do not ship it for these reasons, making it not fatphobic.

The age gap is not a problem because it is only by two years. It is also hinted that Luz could be fifteen by Season 3, so there is no problem.

Their relationship dynamic is up to perspective. It’s okay if you view them as siblings and headcanon them as such but that’s not canon since neither Eda nor Camila have canonically adopted Hunter.

what about huntlow headcanons ouo

YES I was hoping someone would ask that

here we go…

Hunter is the cheesiest guy ever

he goes all out on dates, roses and chocolates and all that

willow loves it so much and finds it adorable

Luz tries to give Hunter pickup lines to use on willow

she claims they worked perfectly for her with amity

they didn’t

hunter tries to use them but ends up tripping over his words, a mess of nerves

willow finds it endearing though and laughs

Hunter loves her laugh

Willow is obsessed with his smile

she’s the biggest flirt ever (ask any huntlow shipper, this is true)

she’s a little awkward too

but it makes Hunter blush redder than a tomato

speaking of tomatoes, while in the human realm they explore new things together

they would go to the market to look at human plants and things

Gus and amity and Luz make bets on who asks out who first

and eda of course

I’m sorry but I was trying to imagine who would ask who out and they would totally pull a lumity

Hunter: willow, do you want to— *stutters nervously*

Willow: Do you wanna go out with me??

hunter: no I was already gonna… *the goofiest grin on his face*

Willow: it’s okay, you can do it *giggling nervously*

their first date was on accident, kinda

they went to get coffee or something together and ended up talking about about cosmic frontier

and then Hunter asks “is this a date?”

and willow thinks about it, and is like, “yeah :)”

Hunter loves reading and Willow loves watching him read

he loves telling her about what he’s reading

hunter tends to flinch when people touch him, because of past experiences with Belos

but he and willow take their time and slowly he becomes more comfertable :D

this probably has a ton of spelling errors because I wrote this so fast and have soooo many

please ask me more I want to dump my silly little hcs onto u guys

thanks so much for the ask <3

...Sooo....About The Owl House...

So I’ve been quietly catching up on The Owl House Season 2 and following today’s episode, I’ve got a couple of comments to make regarding this season as a whole thus:

I know I mentioned in my first commentary-like review of Owl House Season 1 that Willow Park was my favourite character in the whole show.

And while I still love Willow very, very much---she’s still my girl---as of Season 2, the Golden Guard a.k.a Hunter has officially become my favourite.

Not this squiggle meister falling for yet ANOTHER magical golden little prince with a tragic backstory where he is the reincarnation of a character closely connected to the main antagonist of the series. Totally not me, at all.

I think right now Hunter and Willow are both tied for my personal all-time favourite characters as a fan of the Owl House series… which is in turn is also perfect since I’m also starting to ship them as well.

Not this squiggle meister falling for yet another budding relationship between a golden little prince and his OBVIOUS crush on a powerful girl with glowing eyes and a flower/plant themed name and motif.

Not me again shamelessly tossing myself, shipping heart first down this never-ending rabbit hole again. Certainly not again at all. Ahahaaa~ :V

I blame “Any Sport in a Storm” for this. I did not go into Season 2 of The Owl House expecting to walk out a Huntlow shipper…just as how I did not go into Volume 5 of RWBY expecting to walk out a Rosegarden shipper. It just happened and here I am. Don’t come at me please :V

But can you blame me though? Can you really blame me for becoming a Huntlow shipper?

Hunter and Willow are both already terrific characters and what’s better is that their growing bond is just as SO GODDAMN CUTE!.

No episode proved this more to me than today’s new episode---Labyrinth Runners.

Did you see the way golden boy blushed when he saw Willow (while it was a fake Willow—he still blushed when he saw her because he thought it was her)?

Did you see the way golden boy instantly recognized that Willow wasn’t his Captain?

Speaking of, can I take a moment to appreciate how Hunter still addresses Willow as captain despite leaving the Emerald Entrails team? Not only that but can we also take a minute to gush over how much Hunter respects Willow as much as he obviously likes her.

“…That’s not the captain.” “ You’re scaring me, Hunter.” “Have you ever seen her play Flyer Derby? There’s no way she’s be afraid of me.”

Not only does Hunter acknowledge Willow’s strength and courageous nature but…he sadly does so more than Gus and Amity who both have known Willow longer than him. But to be fair, I can’t be too mad at either of them since a) Amity just started being friends with Willow again and you can tell from this episode that she still harboured some guilt over bullying/ failing to defend her as a friend for all those years. And b) Gus has his own diffidence in respect to genuine friendships after his gullibility got the better of him in the past. Like I said, I’m not making this point to denounce Gus and Willow in any kind of way. Not at all. I’m just pointing it out as something I highlighted about Hunter as a character in reference to his connection to Willow.

And this little detail makes me like the prospect of them liking each other even more.

And then, the icing on the cake---Hunter trying to act all coy, playing he walking past Willow and Gus hugging only for Willow to pull him in to join in on the hug. I just…beautiful. Simple perfection.

Seriously, Labyrinth Runners is easily my favourite episode of this season and that’s hard to say since I also deeply enjoyed “Hollow Mind”, “Any Sport in a Storm” and countless other episodes of this season so far. Seriously the Owl House team has been killing with the writing this season thus far. There has yet to be an episode that I haven’t enjoyed in some way and don’t get me started on the character development this season.

I especially love what this season has been doing with Gus. I love how we got more Gus development this season. It's small but still enough to tell you a lot about him which is great. I like how we got to learn more about him. Gus is easily one of the most sociable characters in the main cast but I like how we’ve been seeing a more vulnerable side to him as well. Especially in today’s episode.

I think the core reason why I love the Labyrinth Runner episode so much is what it did for Gus’ friendship with Hunter. I love how this episode genuinely showed Hunter and Gus caring about each other and becoming friends. I loved how in the end, Hunter was the one to technically “save” Gus this episode and vice versa.

It’s great development for both of them since when Gus first met Hunter in "Any Sport in a Storm", he was the most suspicious of him. So to see these two become good friends this episode, it’s just so wholesome and great. I just love it.

Now Gus has another genuine friend in Hunter as he does with Willow and Luz. Speaking of friends, I loved how this episode also highlighted how the whole Flyer Derby team are Hunter’s friends. This isn’t just inclusive of Willow and Gus. Viney and Skara also think so too and it was good great to hear that they vouched for him to be saved when the Coven Scouts tried to take him back to Belos.

There is just so much GREAT in this episode! LOVE IT.

Now to close this post with a theory, somewhat for TOH:

Trinity of Magic

Remember that episode back in season one where the combined magical energies or whatnot between Luz, Gus and Willow caused Hooty to turn into a literal moving house?

Since then I’ve been waiting to see if there will be a story reason for that. And while the show has yet to bring that back, after Labyrinth Runners and seeing just how powerful Gus is with another example of young witch with glowing eyes, I wonder if there will be a story reason for this.

Before, Willow was the only witch confirmed to have their eyes glow whenever unleashing the full might or potential of their magic. Now today, here we have Gus showing the extent of his illusion magic. I wonder if there will be a story reason for this that ties back to “Hooty’s Moving Hassle”.

Are Luz, Gus and Willow part of some kind of magical…trinity or something?

I know Gus and Willow are technically full-born witches whereas Luz is human. But technically, Luz is already proving herself to become some kind of prodigy of wild magic through the use of glyphs.

I dunno. This is just me spitballing here. However, after “Labyrinth Runners”, I’m really starting to get the feeling that there may be something very special to main magical trio than meets the eye. But that’s just my theory.

Anyways, that's enough rambling about TOH for today.
