Hunter and Flapjack

My first thought about Hunter's brown eyes was that Evelyn probably had brown eyes and he now looks like a mix of Evelyn and Caleb. Also Flapjack had brown eyes. I do hope he can use magic now even if technically he is still the same ,Flapjack was made of palistromwood and so is Hunter since he is a grimwalker. maybe this will unlock his powers or something. I wonder if Hunter will be able to access Flapjacks memories. that would be cool since Flapjack apparently knew a lot of what happened in the past.

Grimwalker lore theory.

What if grimwalkers actually are an early experiment on recreating titans or creating a vessel for the Titan. Grimwalkers have powerful lungs from the stonesleepers and could probably roar similar to how King does. Stonesleepers is also creatures that evolved early on on the titan and maybe that makes them more powerful since the titan probably had more magic at that time. They also have the ability to hibernate and turn into stone. this is an ability that I think titans also have since they can turn into islands after they "dies" . The heart in Belos throneroom is still beating som maybe the titan is still alive in some way.

Grimwalkers are also immune to the effects of the boiling sea due to their selkiedomus skin, something the titans also are since the apparntly walked around and lived in it.

Grimwalkers are made out of palistromwood that can create "life". All the life on the boiling isles were "born" from the titans corpse. palistrom is also really rare and is blue - titans blood is also blue - maybe palistrom only grow over places with titansblood, so that means that grimwalkers have titans blood in them. They also emphasize the eyes of the grimwalkers. They are red/pink just like Kings.

I'm a little sad we didn't get to see more of Hunter showing off his knowledge during the timeskip. He was the Golden guard and the head of the emperors coven (only a short time) so he should be more competent then the others with this kind of stuff. I know he lost a lot of his confidence and thats why he is a little in the background and let Luz or the others handle things instead. The others are still students and he is, as said multiple times, a child prodigy and older then them. Also I don't think Belos would have let Hunter be anything other then the best so...

We learned in hunting palismen that he is very knowlegdable about wild magic and that he helped Belos fix the broken portal-door. He used a mechanical staff as well so he should know about artificial magic and mechanics. He would have had access to a lot more information and classified stuff than the others as well. He is an excelent fighter and did beat kikimora, eda and luz, multiple guards and only "lost" to Amilty because of he had a lot of disadvanteges. He still got the key though. He figured out a new type of magic and a new staff in seconds. I hope he gets some of his confidence back.

Luz can appearently teleport as well. I thought this was a Hunter thing, that it was really complicated and only someone really experienced could do it ( I think Eda also could teleport during her and Lilith battle and she was the most powerful witch at the boiling isles at that time and she went all out). It looks like it's mostly Flapjack that does it and not Luz, but still. This was something that happened in an earlier episode and showed us how Luz and Hunter switched places. I don't really know how I feel about it.

If Belos tries to enter Hunter's mind again;

NO ONE TOUCHES MY BOIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!

Add some trauma (2)

inspired by this

Hello. Welcome to my "character" kitchen. Today I'm going to show you how to make the perfect "character" for a show. First thing you gonna wanna do is put in a scoop of TRAUMA.

then you gonna wanna add a cup "fake confidence". then add some TRAUMA.

then I usually add one whole "friendly conversation". Then we gonna add some TRAUMA. then just to add some character, we're going to add some TRAUMA. then I usually add one half …..of TRAUMA.

now it wouldn't really be a character without some friends. So we gonna add some TRAUMA, take some Friends, dip them in TRAUMA, trow them in the mix, then add some TRAUMA. and then, only then… can we add some TRAUMA and blend.

Now offscreen/during a timeskip we actually went back and added some TRAUMA.

Once everything is going well, show everyone your character, add some TRAUMA.

and now you can FINALLY... add some TRAUMA, and enjoy your show…………

I forgot the TRAUMA…..

Has Hunter always been this much taller than everyone else??? I know he was taller before, but did being possed by Belos change more than just his hair and eye color???

or maybe he just went through witch puberty while they were in the human world like Gus did earlier. Maybe witches have growth spurts in stages.

Chapter 1 (Date): Darius helps Hunter sort out his feelings and plan a perfect date with Willow

Hunter was a fantastic researcher. He found out all kinds of stuff about wild magic (which was banned-banned. Like illegal with a sentence of petrification banned) while under Belo’s direct supervision.

And yet, he could not figure out for the life of him what on the titan’s sweet isles was going on with him when he was around Willow.

Finally, he decided he needed to bring in some assistance. Darius seemed trustworthy enough. Someone who wouldn’t snitch on him if for some reason whatever was wrong with him wasn’t allowed.

To be fair, Darius hadn’t snitched (at least to Willow, he definitely called up his catts/ratts friends to share what was apparently incredible gossip amongst legal guardians). He did tease Hunter mercilessly, though, which was so embarrassing that Hunter almost wished he could be petrified instead.

That said, he did at least get his answer. Once Darius had finished exploiting Hunter’s naïveté to ask a bunch of questions that Hunter hadn’t realized were even embarrassing until after the fact, he was informed that he was “down bad” and “head over heels” with a “crush.”

Hunter was vaguely aware of the concept of romantic feelings and relationships, but he didn’t know anything about the specifics.

So, he dove into his research.

Without even getting into how difficult it was to read about this stuff and not accidentally waste the day away daydreaming about how it all related to Willow, it was a tedious process. It seemed sources helping teens figure out what their feelings meant were kept under lock and key even more than wild magic or any other illicit reading material from his golden guard days.

All Hunter really was able to gather for sure was that sometimes people who like-like each other go on dates. Which are like hanging out but different somehow.

And then they could somehow bond to each other??? He wasn’t exactly sure what made a girlfriend different from any other friend who was a girl, but it was apparently special and he couldn’t help longing for it.

And then there was stuff they could do together. Stuff that made Hunter blush just to think about.

Hunter had already held Willow’s hand before (it was life changing. The nerves in his hand had gone haywire but in a way that somehow felt good).

There was more stuff than just hand holding that one could do with a girlfriend, though, according to his research. Stuff that you had to be bonded in a “couple” to be allowed to do.

Hunter had seen people kiss before. He knew it existed. He just honestly… never really got it. It seemed a little gross, but honestly he hadn’t given it much thought.

Until now. Now he couldn’t stop thinking about it. He didn’t quite get the mechanics of it, but that didn’t stop him from daydreaming about it constantly.

Hunter was practically drooling over the idea of having Willow so close to him. Touching him. He would probably combust, but what a way to go.

How he understood it was that he had to somehow arrange this special hangout-but-different in order to be allowed to kiss her (KISS HER??? WILLOW??? OMT OMT HE CANT DO THAT HES FLYING WAY TOO CLOSE TO THE SUN but imagine Willow sitting sosososo close to him, her gentle lips and soft skin and strong grip STRONG MUSCLES SHJBDTDJDD she’s so pretty and cute and ahhhhhhhh Hunter’s so out of his depth here)

He hung out with Willow all the time, though, and none of the books gave straightforward instructions on how to initiate this second, elevated type of interaction.

So he went back to Darius, this time for help constructing the perfect date.

Darius was unreasonably thrilled to be asked.

Apparently they were meant to do something Willow would enjoy, preferably in a place where they were somewhat alone, and it was meant to be “romantic.”

1v1 flyer derby evidently didn’t count as adequately romantic.

But flying itself wasn’t completely out of the question…

Hunter was pretty familiar with the natural features of the Boiling Isles. Maybe Willow would appreciate flitting around collecting various rare and remote plants?

Darius thought it was the perfect idea. However, he insisted that he would under no circumstances be allowing “two hormone addled teenagers to be unsupervised together that far off the grid.”

Hunter tried to explain that he’d been to these places alone before and managed to escape death. And Willow was like the strongest witch ever, she could handle anything the isles could throw at her!

Darius would not hear it, and said that the two would be chaperoned by his tiny abomination, and that was final.

The next order of business would be determining what Hunter would wear. Darius insisted upon being allowed to make Hunter a brand new outfit, promising that it would make his little plant witch swoon.

Hunter was overwhelmed by the gesture. He’d never had a handmade ensemble tailored specifically for him, and it felt like too much. Darius, however, seemed very into it, and truthfully like he wasn’t going to budge regardless of how much Hunter insisted it wasn’t necessary.

“Oh, you’re going to be so handsome for your first date, my little prince! I can hardly believe how far you’ve come.”

The clothes planning portion ended with tears and hugs from all involved parties. Hunter had never had his cheeks squished so much in his life.

For the final step of the planning process, apparently it was considered good etiquette to bring a gift for your date.

Since the weather was subject to be unpredictable with how many different climates they’d be visiting, Hunter decided that he would make Willow some warm layers with a personalized touch. He’d accidentally been collecting Willow related patches for months now. He’d be shopping, see something that reminded him of her, and black out until the next thing he knew he’d already completed the purchase.

He was happily dreaming about how to accessorize a green scarf just right so she would absolutely love it, when Darius burst his bubble again.

“So how are you going to ask her?”

Truthfully, the fact that he HAD to ask her had slipped his mind. And now that he thought about it, it felt so unfathomably nerve racking.

“Um-“ was all he could get out before he became too flustered to speak.

“You have nothing to worry about, this girl’s clearly infatuated with you.”

That only made Hunter’s blush warmer and his thoughts mushier.

Darius tried to regain his attention, but Hunter was too far gone. He’d make real plans after he got all his giggling, blushing daydreaming and romance zooming, and pillow squeezing, squealing, tingly tummy feeling out of his system.

Darius just watched fondly as his ward acted every bit the silly teen he was meant to be. He couldn’t wait to tell the catts about this.

My contribution to Huntlow Week

I enjoy the idea of trans Hunter and all that. Like really I see the appeal. The thing is though it’s never sense to me. So spoilers for season 3 I think but he’s a grimwalker. He was made from wood and all these other components. He was very intentionally modeled after a man. Now Caleb could have been trans but that’s harder to believe in this scenario just with what we’ve seen. Even so it would a strange and very possibly disturbing choice to intentionally give the grimwalkers or even just Hunter genitals he wouldnt be comfortable with or even breasts.

I think it’s more likely that grimwalkers have no real genitals or ability to make kids. I’ve got a personal idea that they don’t even have any particular anything down there, maybe a few lumps or flaps of skin to give the idea of something but nothing that resembles anything in particular.

I also think he could still be considered trans, perhaps going through surgery or some other demon realm stuff to give himself more then physically masculine features.

There’s even a bonus thought that maybe all grimwalkers take hormones of some sort.

My favorite part about the recent episode is that Hunter has a little bow on his bag and it’s the only thing I can think about because it’s so cute. ☺️

Hunter Warrior Cats phase

Raise your hand if you watched Child Soldier Hunter Golden Guard, proud servant to a creepy old man who is straight up abusing him, give the Hexside kids the fake name “Caleb” and just momentarily black out.
