Here is an idea for a rewrite of Boscha's character based on their idea. Actually, it's more of an expansion of her character but still...
Anyways, it all starts with Wing it Like Witches. I'll starts around sometime after the grudgby match, not right after thought, maybe a little while, maybe a couple of weeks. At some point, Boscha's posse along with other people from school will eventually get fed up with Boscha's behavior and then dip on her. Boscha's posse will cut ties with her and have their own friend group together without Boscha. Maybe they could even on occasion hang with the Hexsquad. Boscha's gang aren't really bad people, just misguided who need positive influences. While Willow's reputation populairty will skyrocket, Boscha's will absolutely collapse to rock bottom. Boscha will have no friends, and lose every ounce of respect the students have for her. Boscha will get ostracized by everyone, getting a taste of karma by getting a dose of her own medicine. This will position Boscha at her lowest.
Boscha would likely eventually quit the grudgby team and if that bad, stops coming to school because of having to deal with the consequences of her actions and having to deal with the school hating her. She seems to weigh her self-worth based on her popularity and how many trophies she has. With nobody, she feels like nobody.
Okay, this is when I eventually do some substitutions of the Golden Guard stuff. This takes around the end of the season 1 finale after Lilith fell from grace in the Emperors coven and she and Amity lost their respect for Belos and is now against him. Eventually, Boscha gets an invite to an apprenticeship at the Emperors Coven to eventually become a covenhead for the coven. Boscha decided to take that opportunity without question. After all, its a big honor to be selected to get in the Emperors Coven, or even get an apprenticeship there. She had nothing to lose after all the damage she dealt at Hexside and all the friends and respect from others she lost. This can give Boscha a chance to climb up the ranks and eventually gain some sort of superiority over others on a larger scale.
This can be able to show the viewers some "What if" scenarios. It would be able to make a good story parallels between Boscha and Amity, two sides of the same coin. They were first introduced as two mean girls who are popular and bullied the weak but eventually after late season 1 chose different paths showing what would happen if choosing either one of those paths. Boscha can act as an example of what Amity would of become if not changed her ways and try and make up for those misdeeds. Boscha would have been the final product if Amity hasn't met Luz.
Anyways back to the rewrite. Boscha would be doing her apprenticeship at the EC. She doesn't enjoy what she does but she does like the praise she receives if she pleases the EC with her work. This will once again show how her self-esteem runs on praise and compliments. This can lead to the Hexsquad now having complex feelings about the whole matter. They would have several interactions with her as maybe some sort of threat or something but also see that even though she likes the showering of compliments she gets when doing something right, she doesn't enjoy what she does in EC under the apprenticeship. This can also give us the viewers too have very mixed and complex feelings about Boscha. Eventually Boscha over time pieces together the true intensions of the EC's motives and the Day of Unity, this can make her never see the EC the same again, and then eventually escapes but doesn't really have anywhere to go except home. Though she worries about having to face having to bump into former classmates that she had hurt so technically she has nowhere to go. This could have the potential to make a very interesting redemption arc and it wouldn't feel like its copying Amity, and instead have a more original sort of take on a redemption arc
Her redemption could end in a couple ways. She either joins the Hexsquad, or she could just be independent doing her own thing not siding with Luz or Belos.
Anyways, what do you think of Boscha's rewrite/expansion? Do you agree with these ideas? Do you have your ideas of your own take on it? I'm still trying to figure out a backstory for Boscha with why she weighs how much she is worth based on popularity, trophies, etc so do you guys have any ideas for that? Also, I still need an idea of how she gets her crab palisman, Maya, any ideas for that? Lemme know your thoughts in the comment section below.
