Well, yes and no. Willow would be much more clever and conniving than the modern version of Heather who is just a straight lunatic. Heather BITD was much more subtle. For example, at one point Willow would gaslight/drug Michael into PTSD madness stemming from his past as well as the fire in '25 that led to the recast. She'd then frame him for a series of murders dating back to the accidental death of Abby Haver, the erotic dancer/hooker he dated as a very young man and ending with Jacinda, who she wouldn't have killed herself (Sidwell or somebody would be responsible for it, Willow would not be involved, just capitalizing on it). Willow would make Michael, whose past speaks for itself going back to Claudia Zacchara, look like the unknown cold case serial killer Port Charles never knew was lurking in its wake for years, a la IRL real estate scion Robert Durst. All she should can get her kids back and get revenge on him. It would fall apart eventually and Michael would get his own back, but he wouldn't be able to fully put her away for it. Or she'd do a stretch in Ferncliff, then play nice and get out. That's just one storyline. And in the meantime Willow continues to have the protection of Drew and the Quartermaine name for a good stretch, before possibly finding someone else. (And a string of young lovers of course, as Heather once had. Poor Joe Kelly.)
I would def waste Chase at some point but I'd leave him as her lovesick fool and corrupt PI (because no way is he lasting long on the force, though he could try to help her build the fake case against Michael) for awhile before he totally self-immolates. Willow would have other hapless beaus in future. And possibly hatesex with Michael at some point. I would never have them get back together, and probably never even let him be so bamboozled as to seriously consider it.
