something i realized over the years is that despite wanting to kill myself, i don't actually wanna die. far from it actually. i want to live. i want to experience all the things i always wanted to do. i want to see the world. i want to look in the mirror one day and say "im happy i stayed". i want to get better. i want to live a life free from the shackles this mental illness has kept me in. but sometimes that darkness in my brain just overtakes that hope for a better future and all i'm left with is the thought that it will never get better.

— i want to live, but not like this.

my kind of story

[tomdestry]

Through dangers untold. And hardships unnumbered. I have fought my way here to the castle; beyond the goblin city, to take back the child that you have stolen. My will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom as great… LABYRINTH 1986 — dir. Jim Henson

Now LISTEN here

I don't mean to validate the godawful Fate: the Winx saga by any means

BUT

If Beatrix is supposed to be Stormy (since they have the same powers pretty much) They nailed the casting in a pretty sneaky unexpected way here

(which makes their white washing of the other main character ever so infuriating & unjustified, but don't get me started on that)

P.s. Picture on the left, is Stormy in disguise, from S02E15 of Winx Club "The Show Must Go On!"

After seeing the Netflix Winx club live action adaptation, your art is the only thing keeping me alive. Cause NGL I still feel like combusting with anger at how they did the girls dirty. So thank you for blessing the world with your amazing art. You captured the girls so well. Their distinct personalities really shine through your character designs. I hope you have a good day!!!!

The adptation looks like hot garbaaggee. I drew some versions of what i woulda done with their outfits over on twitter. Might as well show em here tooooo

Netflix please hire this person immediately and DO BETTER

was just Remembering how you’d be out with a friend and you’d each order a different cocktail and you’d ask “what’d you get?” and they’d read the description off the menu and you’d be like “ooh that sounds good” and then they’d say “try it!” and then you’d have a lil sip of their drink and they’d have a lil sip of your drink and you’d decide which one was best and you wouldn’t give each other a life-threatening respiratory infection

I want to rant about this more

They did Stella dirty. They took my literal embodiment of sunshine fairy princess and did that.

Like, her original characterization worked so well with her powers. She was the fairy of the shining sun and she had such a sunny disposition. She was spoiled and a bit hot headed at times, but she was also really kind. Literally the first thing she did after meeting Bloom, a literal stranger, was to get her into fairy school, even going so far as to lie for her to get in. She showed her the fairy world and became her friend, all because she was a good person.

Live action Stella’ characterization kinda makes sense in canon, but that doesn’t mean I have to like it. Also the perpetuation of the girl hates other girl because boyfriend drama is so tedious. Did we really need another jealous ex archetype especially when the cartoon had such a big emphasis on the unbreakable friendship between the girls. Live action Stella is a light fairy but she is a ray of darkness.

Also StellaxSky bad. Bad bad bad.

The only way live action Stella makes sense is if they merged her with Diaspero.
