TADC EP 9 spoilers

No one will be ready to talk about how Jax’s depiction of transness is one of the messiest we have seen; in the sense that Jax is outwardly irredeemable but trans nonetheless, and her not being able to reach out to anyone and due to her trauma she didn’t get a happy ending. It’s gut wrenching, and it’s unfortunate because I KNOW trans people like this. In that sense, this depiction is raw and real. And I think that in of itself is pretty incredible.

I think the dust will need to settle, and while Jax isn’t anywhere near my favorite trans characters, I think she’s certainly one of the most notable, and I think that’s a great accomplishment.

None of that undoes the complete lack of development for any other goddamn character in this show, which is really unfortunate. To AO3 I go, I guess

I’ve been m.i.a going to therapy and trying to get better. But I had to say this somewhere and this is the only place that seems right.

I had a 1D blog on here over a decade ago now. I was dedicated to the band and absorbed every piece of content I could. I remember the livestreams and the X factors clips, I remember the adventurous adventures of one direction, I still remember the first piece of fic I ever wrote was for 1D. I have them to thank for me becoming a fangirl of anything at all. The news has been really hard to gather for me, trying to remind myself that I’m not still 12-14 listening to their music in my room and getting on here to talk about them with whoever would listen.

I made friends bc of 1D, and they helped me grow into the person I am. It’s hard hitting to know that we’ve lost one of them, but I hope for everyone to find peace in the future and that we don’t forget that even as we grow older, we’ll always hold a small part of the child we once were.

Melinda Desmond Conspiracy Theory No.2

I see a number of people (jokingly or not) poked fun on Twilight’s meticulous and painstaking plan of approaching Donovan Desmond only for Yor to swept Melinda Desmond off her feet (literally). But one mustn’t forget that Twilight is just following his mission’s order by WISE. So most likely WISE has no intel on Melinda Desmond as well. And idk, I just feel there’s so much red flags with this lady (the way she repeated the name Forger and finally recalled the significance of that name). Susfishy.

Omg I've never met anyone who's fave Winx is also Tecna! Can you tell us more about what you like about her? Maybe Timmy too since they're the nerdy couple?

I see I'm not alone in this. Yes anon, Tecna is the best Winx and I'll throw hands with anyone who tries to change my mind. I'm so glad you asked this toady because it's indeed Tecna's birthday, and I'm psyched to celebrate it by gushing over her and Timmy.

From the moment I started watching this show I grew to love Tecna. She just walked in, introduced herself and my 8 year old self went 'That one will be my favorite.' I was correct, because as the season went on I grew to like her even more. She was always an awkward tomboy nerd like me. What's not to love?

Tecna's the only one who was willing to call Bloom out when she messed up, she was serious and logical but also very nice and I loved that silly scene where she didn't know how to use non-technological cleaning supplies.

This was peak comedy according to baby Shi! 😂

Season 2 was even better as it centered around character development. Tecna in this season had to learn how to trust others and that logic isn't always the right path. I think it was handled beautifully and we even get her and Timmy becoming and official couple and their first kiss it's just so sweet! This was the only time their relationship faced any sort of drama. And I like that quite a lot, they're the only couple who wasn't put through the ringer for the sake of drama and that just makes them the healthiest outta the group.

Season 3 it's my favorite season and omg did it break my heart and made me grow anxious at times. This season the girls had to make a sacrifice to get their Enchantix transformation and in Tecna's case she almost died getting hers! This girl was willing to die in order to save the entire magic dimension! This episode turned 10 year old me into a puddle of tears because they almost killed off my favorite female character ever and at the time I thought that would be permanent! Good thing she just ended up in Omega for a couple episodes, but still, this was the darkest the show had gone thus far and I was freaking out for my baby

Everyone thought Tecna was dead (except Timmy but we'll get to that later) yet best girl had survived in literal ice hell and kept herself alive until she was found and rescued. She just left me in awe everytime with her intelligence and resourcefulness.

After that when the Winx had to the get the water stars she was willing to give up her emotions for the sake of saving the entire magic dimension. Again, she's willing to whatever it takes to save the universe and that dedication is what makes her so amaizing.

We didn't get much of her during Season 4 or 5 but she still did her best to make plans and to use her tech to help in missions. Season 6 is where baby shone again. I'll be honest with you anon, my favorite Winx transformation is Bloomix and my favorite Bloomix is Tecna's. It's blue! The stockings have circuits on them! Tecna's hairstyle is beautiful The wings are so sparkly and unique, they look like a holgram! If I ever manage to buy a Winx doll, it'll be a Tecna Bloomix doll. I just adore it!

This season we also get an episode on Zenith with Tecna's parents ans them meeting Timmy! This might've been mostly a filler episode but it's still my second favorite of the show as a whole. We had Tecna's home planet, we finally meet her parents (her dad totally looks like Ra's Al Ghul) Timmy proves to be the best boyfriend ever yet again and we get Frankenstein's monster in the Legendarium. Absolutely love this episode and love how Tecna handled everything so well, and Timmy too. He's just such a sweetie!

Season 7 is probably my least favorite season but I loved Tecna's fairy animal and I love the moments she and Timmy have there.

Finally we have season 8 and while the new drawing style isn't my thing. I do love they gave Tecna more to do. She's resourceful, she helps win the dance off, solves puzzles and I do think she was crucial in Orion's story. Kinda makes me wish both she and Timmy had formed a throuple with him. Dunno bout you, but I thought they had potential chemistry.

Overall I love how smart and strong Tecna is. I love how she becomes more open and emotional as time goes on. I love her powers, planet, and companions. I love how determined she is and I love her relationship with Timmy.

Ok so now onto precious Timmy. This boy is just the best. He starts out similar to Tecna as the brains of his group but unlike Tecna who was cold and logical, Timmy is in tune with his emotions, his flaw to overcome is perhaps that he's a bit cowardly and dare I say weak. But our boy here comes around and compensates his lack of strength with his intelligence and resilience and I absolutely love him for it.

He gets even less screentime than Tecna in subsequent seasons which it's a shame but what gets is always gold. I particularly love that in season 3 when everyone gives up hope that Tecna's alive in the Omega dimension, Timmy doesn't. He absolutely destroys himself searching for her and finds her. I think I'd be lucky to find a man that loves me as much as Timmy loves Tecna. They're just the best couple on the show and I adore how they both bring the best out in eachother. How they're both shy nerds with similar interests and how unbreakable they've become. It's rare to see a pair with a serious girl and a super loving boy but these two make it work so well that I'm convinced we need more of that trope.

I was slightly sad they were cut from the live action when it was first announced but now that we've seen is gonna be a grimdark garbage fire I think I'm happy my two favorites won't be tainted by it. These two made my childhood, and I'll always keep them close to my heart 💙
