You mean what Plec’s trying to accomplish with a school run by zero witches, and only have trial and error experience to the point that you wonder why this school is even a thing.
But yeah, I actually kind of imagine the Gemini’s have a version of this since though he Kai didn’t have his own magic but had a lot of knowledge on it as did the rest of the Parkers. It just seems like Bonnie was the only witch excluded from this type of education.
It definitely would have given her more connection to being a witch, as opposed to the way the show has it which was she was only a witch when her friends needed her while at the same time making it seem like she had no life outside of magic.
I imagine Kai’s familiar to be a black dog and it’s the first thing he gets when he’s released from the prison world and serves as an omen to Liv and Jo when he goes to get them.

She’s a good girl, no one could dispute that. They could try, but they would lose every time because who would accuse the woman who saved the world of being bad. However there was something off, something that lied underneath that she kept locked away for no one to see. That is until Kai finds the key.
Probably not quite the answer you’re looking for but I imagine their first dance happening in the prison world but forced on Bonnie to the song “Crazy” by Patsy Cline. It’ll be disturbing and very scary for Bonnie, but that’s kind of Bonkai.
If I was going to insert it into a scene it would be the one after Bonnie wakes up from being shot with a crossbow. She’s weak and in pain, and the song is playing and he wants to dance. He’ll lament about how he’s never felt the way Patsy Cline felt in the song until her, and he’s telling her about the girls he dated pre-inprisonment and how he couldn’t muster up a single feeling, and then soon after stabs him in the neck with a pen.
Their next dance I imagine would be like a combination of my two asks where she gets back to the real world and has trouble adjusting to the lack of violence to the point that she has a violent outburst of magic at a party that kills everyone but her. Kai walks in on the scene and is delighted at the carnage. He walks to the jukebox and turns on “Don’t let me be misunderstood” by Nina Simone and then approaches her. He holds out his hand for them to dance but she’s in no mood due to hysterics. He tells her “it’s just one dance” and she obliges. After that they move awkwardly slow while she cries on his chest.
So essentially I’d give them very dark and twisted dancing for a very dark and twisted ship.
Very Bonnie and Clyde except instead of them dying in a hail of bullets they use magic and reverse the trajectory of the bullets killing everyone around them except themselves.
This is just reminding me I need to get back to my fic Outlaws.

Kai really loves eating.
Actually pretty much all of that. I answered this once in an ask but I would begin Bonkai earlier in the Prison World by extending their time there. Basically cat and mouse games that at first are tiring but eventually she delights in. She enjoys killing Kai and Kai just enjoys the intimacy of it because it’s the closest thing he’s ever had to intimacy. Some of these adventures would involve sex, very dangerous sex that often ends in one of their deaths, but the thrill is always worth it.
They would of course eventually get out, either by their own devices or a rescue mission on the MFG gone wrong where Bonnie and Kai get out but someone else gets left behind via betrayal of Bonnie and that’s when she would start loving for herself and stop getting pushed around.
In the real world they would go their separate ways until Bonnoe has issues adjusting and seeks Kai out. She finds him covered in blood next to a dead body. Instead of being disgusted she’d feel at home because she was having trouble adjusting to the people, but adjusting to the lack of violence. They if course ignore the body and fuck each other’s brains out.
I’d obviously want Bonkai endgame but I don’t know where to go from there, either killing spree, or they become the king and queen of the Gemini coven.
So weirdly enough I don’t know exactly how I would pull this off. They’re all characters I absolutely love, but I view Bonnie with each of them vastly different, and not only that I view their goals vastly different from each other.
As I mentioned in my I can’t get this idea out of my head post, Tonnie is my fluffy ship. I view Bonnie very sweet with Tyler, much like her old self before vampires, originals, etc. It’s probably why it’s my second favorite Bonnie ship, because it taps into a part of Bonnie almost feel long forgotten, her innocence so to speak. And I feel like she’d bring that part out in him as well, what it felt like before his anger issues took over and his father started beating him.
Also while they deserved better for a lot of the same reasons, I feel the ways to correct their injustices are a bit different. With Bonnie I feel she needed to go dark. A) because villains have the most fun and B) because they also reveal the most truth. She needs to see the truth of her situation before moving on to better herself and that’s where Bonkai came in for me.
He tapped into something very visceral in her. She went place she had never gone because of him and I loved seeing that part of her. It was messy and chaotic and for the first time they were tapping into parts of herself that were willing her to fight for herself for once.
With Tyler he didn’t need to see the truth, he usually saw the bigger picture. What needed to be rectified with him was his perspective needed to truly be seen. Bonnie needed this as well which is what made them a great pairing for each other because they could see each other’s struggle and not only sympathize, but empathize which I think was missing from Foreword. Not to say Caroline didn’t have any empathy for Tyler, but past his transformation episode she struggled to understand what he was going through and often couldn’t see past her loyalty to her friends.
So combining the innocence of Tonnie with the darkness of Bonkai sounds really really interesting BUT I just don’t know how to visualize it.
