As for Willow\u2026 \u201d she trails off for a moment before admitting with a sigh, \u201cShe\u2019s definitely a little lost these days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This makes sense, she elaborates, given that art reflects life. \u201cWillow started in one place and has now gone in completely the opposite direction,\u201d MacMullen reflects. \u201cAnd in life, you do the same thing. You have ups and downs, and along the way you figure things out about yourself. Where Willow\u2019s concerned, she still has a lot to learn. I don\u2019t think she\u2019s truly figured out who she is or maybe even how she fits into this crazy life she\u2019s living.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"559\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/d_B8vsG7QZf4nvtolqFGGQ--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU1OTtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/soaps_732\/8913d070539dd8df1c10682313f3781f\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cCrazy\u201d is something of an understatement, given that Willow has found herself caught in a vicious battle between Michael and Drew, two of the most powerful men in Port Charles. \u201cOne of her biggest challenges is knowing who to trust.
