#to all of you who dont ship huntlow but still are respectful.

[royal-they]

I feel like a lot of people don’t realize how important it is for people to see ships like lumity and huntlow coming from a brand like disney that’s known for having ships that really is known to enforce a lot of beauty standards on to kids. 

lumity is definitely not “on brand” with disney but i feel like so much of the appeal in it comes from that fact. luz doesn’t fit disneys standards for an attractive girl at all. (she is very pretty tho don’t get me wrong) whereas amity is definitely seen by a lot of fans to be very attractive and i think that makes the ship even more powerful. luz doesn’t fall for amity first, amity falls for luz. 

i don’t think i can even explain how much this meant to me as a poc. like omg the hot gay witch that everyone thinks is super hot falls for the dorky brown girl??? that alone makes me love the ship 1000x more. its amazing that kids get to grow up with a ship like that that really flips tropes and cliches and is still so fun and cute to watch. it really teaches young bisexuals and pocs that; hey! you can totally find a super loving healthy relationship where the other person respects you :) ive mentioned in the past that i used to feel really self conscious of my lips but luz helped my overcome that. it’s a small but very important thing to me. i also used to always be worried about how partners would take me being bi, again luz was so helpful in overcoming that fear. 

huntlow is another ship that i feel is incredibly important for reasons similar to lumity. a lot of people are probably going to hate me for saying that lmao but idk i still think it’s very likely to become canon. again like lumity the character the fandom finds to be the most attractive falls first

some people say that willow fell first but I feel like given the fact that hunters been the only one who blushes a lot more people are gonna go “oh hunter likes willow” rather than “willow likes hunter” (i mean i think willow likes hunter but it’s not as obvious so im not gonna talk about that aspect of this ship and it’s not relevant to the point im trying to get across.) 

a lot of people have also said that huntlow parallels lumity in how lot in how their interactions are written and i really agree with that. hunter has from the minute his face was revealed always been seen as attractive by the fandom. i feel like people only really started saying the same about willow when hunter started showing signs of having a crush on her. 

willow like luz isn’t the conventionally attractive disney princess type. she’s larger, east asian, and more quiet. still through hunters perspective we’re able to see these aspects of her along with how she can still be confident and an incredibly powerful witch. 

just like with lumity the show allows people to stop and be like huh luz is actually really pretty and super cute or huh willow is actually really gorgeous and talented. we’re able to see these characters from the perspective of the people who are in love with them. 

at first amity and hunter both don’t really understand why willow and luz are the way they are. hunter and amity have been raised with the perspective of having to be better than everyone all the time so when they meet luz and willow - two very powerful witches - they dont understand why they’re approaching things with the perspective they have. but slowly they’re able to see a different side of them which in turn allows the viewer to also understand luz and willow more. 

we see hunter and amity have this moment of realization; huh it’s actually okay to let people see a more friendly side of myself that’s more open with people and that doesn’t take anything away from how powerful i have the capability of being. 

I think that just the fact alone that luz is able bring out the best side of amity and the fact that willow is able to bring out the best side of hunter is really cute and admirable. these two standoffish teens with self hatred issues are just are suddenly super soft around these two super sweet cute girls. idk i just really like these two ships.

Adressing the huntlow hate as a huntlow shipper and supporter : a thread

I shipped huntlow as of september last year and i fell in love with the similarities between them. I wasnt too sure wether the ship was possible until ASIAS came out.

Before then, huntmeria/goldric was (and still is) the most popular hunter ship. I really dont like the ship but since so many people like it i tried to avoid it with respect to the many who adore this ship

When "Any sport in a storm" was released i went BESERK!! Everything i wished for was coming true and even after labrynth runners released and evidence of huntlow being endgame i still saw quite a bit of hate that needs to be adressed to some.

The huntlow tag is getting filled with comments on how people dont like the ship. If you dont like it its fine but why DO YOU HAVE TO DO IT IN THE #HUNTLOW TAG?! Ik if the word is mentioned is will appear in the twitter tag but half of the tag is just NEGATIVE COMMENTS

Its annoying because LITERALLY NO ONE, even people who dont ship hunter with anyone or people who prefer huntlow rarely say anything bad about goldric/huntmeria but all of a sudden people try to find excuses to diss a harmless ship (huntlow)

The age gap excuse is used so many times its getting old. Willow is canoncally 15 now (If you didnt see in labrynth runners in gus's room with the photo of her blowing out a candle. Since she was confirmed to be 14 in the first season)

But what some people dont understand is alot of huntlow fans dont really CARE if they dont date by the series conclusion or even if its implied by the series but we will take ANY crumb we can get, its just fan behaviour, we've all been there.

We just need to respect all ships as it is and try to keep certain opinions out of the tags, except the "problematic" ships. As a huntlow shipper, i may not like huntmeria/goldric but i respect the people who ship them. I dont go spreading hate in comments like some fans.

I believe there needs to be a mutual agreement. We need to try and respect huntlow shippers the way we respect people who ship hunter with the twins. This fandom by far is one of the most non-toxic fandom ive ever been in and i love everything about it so can we keep it this way pls?

Hopfully we can finally reach common ground and let the huntlow defenders,enjoyers and supporters have as much fun as the huntmeria/goldric shippers

NOTE: there is no hate towards huntmeria/goldric in anyway. I havent been a fan of the ship at all but im trying to appeal to both sides of the spectrum to try and put a stop to this nonsense.
