Welcome To My Wonderland

You may call me Ali. She/Her. This blog is just my ideas/concepts on current hyper-fixations. All are welcomed (sexuality, race, belief, etc.). Bullying will not be tolerated. Main account is themainwitchbitchartist.

[thelynpheanchronicles]

So, an announcement…

So long story short, my side blog (@witchbitchartist) was gonna be my fandom blog (and it still is!). BUT! It was gonna be my everything for my main Winx Club AU (and other AUs involving Winx Club). The one thing I didn’t count on was that I couldn’t really do much with that blog (since it’s a secondary blog to this account).

So this is gonna be where I’ll be posting that stuff, such as artwork, world building, etc. There will be some posts from my other blog that’ll be tagged but this is it.

Also I changed my blog’s name…

So another funny story, witch bitch artist was something I came up with on the fly because my ADHD ass is very “fly by the seat of your pants” that I didn’t think of a name. So I came up with that with the intention of changing it later.

Apparently you can’t change names of secondary blogs.

But if you haven’t been following me for a while (not many of you do) I have a love for Flora and her home realm of Lynphea. I’m very upset about how little attention they paid to her and her realm (I don’t count the Nickelodeon years, kudos if you do, it wasn’t for me. Therefore they are excluded from my AU…some of it… There were some characters I liked). So much so, my AU/Rewrite revolves around her and some concepts I came up with.

Something I really want to address with my AU!

It will tackle some tough topics.

Grief and loss

Colonization

Racism

Colorism

Classism

Mental health issues

And more that I can’t think of off the top of my head. If you’ve been watching the news, you may know why.

For a while now, I was hesitant on revealing this. Mostly because I saw a post on this sight about how it’s wrong to include current events into a fandom. But, guys, this is how I’m coping right now. By building an AU where these things exist and somehow get resolved (somewhat).

I guess what I’m getting to is: If you’ve don’t like it, then don’t read.

I’m also trying to do this with a love for the cultures that I base Lynphea (and each of the realms to that extent) off of. If I do something offensive, please know it’s not intentional and correct me. I would rather be corrected than have a false mind.

I think that’s all I want to get off my chest talk about.

***Also sorry if this is very confusingly worded or if there are spelling/grammer errors. I have transient aphasia due to chronic migraines. Paired with mental disorders, errors will happen. Just ask if you need me to clear something up.***

[witchbitchartist]

So my followers know of the change and why…

[witchbitchartist]

When bloom shows them Earth, what Earth things do each of the winx like? What do they dislike?

Hi! Sorry it took me so long to answer. I really had to think about this answer. Mostly because I associate a lot of what earth stuff would be to the magic dimension just more advanced with a magic based twist.

The only thing I can come up with is Tecna would not like the technology since the tech in the magic dimension is way more advanced. I know in season 4 she seemed to like the internet which I think would be something she would find interesting. Especially gaming. But (at least in my AU), I think she would easily get frustrated with it and constantly be muttering “I could make that even better if I…”.

I’m interested to see what other would think because this actually stumped me.

[witchbitchartist]

what do you think the Winx girls like to read

I’m gonna be honest I never really thought about that and am not really well versed in types of literature. So I don’t really know.

Will have to think about that.

[witchbitchartist]

What are your headcanons for the winx girls' sexual orientations. My roommates and I concluded that stella is a lipstick lesbian.

Hello! Thank you for asking. I was caught off guard by this question because I never really thought of it deeply.

But what I’ve come to:

Stella: Heteroflexible borderline pansexual

Bloom: closet bisexual

Layla: also bisexual

Musa: straight/Heteroflexible. I see her as she doesn’t really realize she likes women or that she’s trying desperately to hide it.

Tecna: demisexual bordering on aroace

Flora: this is tricky but I saw her as panromantic demisexual. Where she really loves everyone but Helia holds a place in her heart that no one can compete with.

This is what I concluded atm based on my AU and can subject to change in the near future.

[witchbitchartist]

Does anyone else headcanon some of the Winx Club characters as either multilingual or English being a second, maybe even a third language? Is it just me?

For example, Riven. I see him as growing up in a multicultural area and picking up on different languages to the point that he is pretty fluent in them.

Please let me know! I am very curious if it’s just me and my special interest in learning about different cultures (and my adoration of them) or others think the same.

[navegaremmim]

YES. Assuming they are all native English speakers is just being anglo-centric.

They speak:

Irish as a heritage language

Brazilian Portuguese & Swedish

Thai

German & Italian

Polish

Norwegian

And the witches

Estonian

French

European Portuguese

[witchbitchartist]

I love this take!

[thelynpheanchronicles]

I’ve been working on expression. Here’s a sketchy sketch.

This is Falene. You’ve met her a few times if you followed my other account. She’s Flora and Helia’s one and only child. She smells some bullshittery about.

I think I’m coming closer to finding a style that I’m both happy with and find enjoyable to draw.

[witchbitchartist]

In case you didn’t catch it, my Winx stuff will be posted on here from now on. So if you want to be caught up on that, maybe keep this in your radar or follow (or don’t. I ain’t the boss of you).

[just-pauline]

I tried to imagine a wilder Flora, as opposed to Tecna, just for fun

[witchbitchartist]

Had another thought/scenario in the shower but can you imagine Helia is getting to know his team and he’s like they seem pretty cool until the whole mishaps from Season 1 comes to light.

I imagine this conversation happening because Cordatorta is keeping a close eye on them. Especially when it comes to doing anything with dragons. And Helia, ever observant, is just like “why he doin that?”.

Brandon: Probably because we ruined an event last year.

Helia: Really?

Brandon: yeah, because those two boneheads decided to have a fight in a middle of it and sent their dragons after each other

Helia: ?

Rivan: Hey! I was under a witch’s possession at the time. Cut me some slack!

Helia: ?!

Rivan: At least, I didn’t lie about having a fiancé.

Helia: …you lied about…?

Sky: Yeah, not the smartest thing I’ve done.

Rivan: Obviously, that would be you both lying to your current girlfriends by switching identities.

Helia: ?!?!

Timmy: We also crashed and lost a troll that was running loose on Earth.

Helia: …

Helia: …what the fuck…

Weird Headcanons of the People in the Realm of Magix

Had this in the drafts for a bit. Now found the time and energy to post it.

Native Lynpheans, Androsians with the mermaid gene, and Solarians with the Lunar gene all have “eyeshine”, or the phenomena of where eyes reflect light directed at them helping them see better in low light (most animals in headlights).

Solarians call it “moon eye”. And I can just imagine Stella realizing Flora has that phenomena and goes “I didn’t know you were moon eyed!” And Flora’s like “???”

I would also like to note that some Zenithians have something similar but it’s with those with an artificial eye(s).

Lynpheans have a sonic whistle they can do that is only used when they are cornered and see no way out, a beacon of needing immediate help or to scare away enemies. It is called the Death Whistle and it sounds like a high pitch scream.

Definitely based off of the Aztec death whistle except they can do it without the help of an instrument.

Androsians have a similar thing called the Siren Song, though it’s less of a scream and more of a melody.

Dominions also have one called the Dragon’s Cry. It’s very similar to the Death Whistle but sounds more animalistic, like a dragon’s cry.

Zenithians all build an artificial body that is used to house their consciousness when their bodies give out.

They are also known to replace parts of their body with mechanical prosthetics.

Lynpheans are known for this too but with parts of plants being fused to their body. Normally it is their birth plant.

Dominions, Solarians, Lynpheans, and Androsians are known to purr.

Androsians is more of a trill.

When to purr is seen as taboo for some.

Solarians try to hide their purrs at all costs.

Dominions only allow it with family or significant others

Lynpheans are more community and known to be openly affectionate based so it is not seen as taboo and not uncommon to hear one purring in public

That moment when the character design is so perfect you barely change a thing about it, exhibit 1: Diaspro!

I literally only changed her shoes a bit and put some more gemstones on her fairy form's skirt, as well as altering the wings just a tiny bit. She is beauty, she is grace, she wants to punch Bloom in the face💖

[witchbitchartist]

I will die on the hill of Diaspro’s design is perfection and doesn’t ever need to be change.

Although the extra touches compliment this already beautiful woman.

[witchbitchartist]

Trying a new style. There are things to tweak but I think I might stick with this.

Anyhoo

Miss Flora from Winx Club

Also, there appears to be a small scar on her hairline. That is because I have lore about why she has the lighter streaks in her bangs.

Spoiler: it isn’t a happy story.

[v4ngelix]

Hey let’s normalize loving incredibly flawed things cause we like them. I like Damien and Vexius, I like Believix, I like the wizards, I like Riven, I like the sci fi y2k vibes of season 1 and 2, I like the og franchise/gen 1, I like season 4’s concept, I like these french books I have summarizing the episodes from Bloom’s pov. I still like the og franchise. I’m not gonna be like some Winx fans and feel the need to rewrite the show or shit on 90% of the franchise, I actually like the og show and franchise unlike those guys, and I hope you guys like the show or characters or whatever genuinely instead of for nostalgia or clout too.

[smilesrobotlover]

Thinking about Sidon and Link and I don’t think Sidon has any genuine friends. Sure the people love him and they probably idolize him the same way they did mipha but I don’t think he actually has any close friends who see him as a person. Which is probably why he’s so obsessed with Link and why he’s very outwardly expressive with his appreciation.

There’s a lot to Sidon’s character that’s actually quite fascinating to me

[smilesrobotlover]

Like, maybe he’s so outwardly affectionate to those around him because he wants to show how much he loves and cares for them cuz he doesn’t know when he’ll lose them and

[silvercaptain24]

… well I wasn’t expecting to have feelings over Sidon tonight but THANKS SMILES

[smilesrobotlover]

Oh dont worry there’s much more thoughts on his character that’s lowkey ruin my life 🙂

[witchbitchartist]

I am back with some more world-building for my AU.

I may have mentioned it before but I am not using Flora’s parents from the series and my AU is only canon (somewhat because I’ll rewrite some things) to the first four seasons. This may not be a popular choice but it’s my choice. It’s mostly a reboot of my first concept from when I was younger and only exposed to the first four seasons aka pre-Nickelodeon era. A better more refined reboot since there was some plot holes and just things that didn’t make sense to me now but did back then. So, in short, I’m creating different parents for Flora. I will include characters from later seasons but the parents didn’t make the cut. I apologize.

So without further ado, these are the men in Flora’s family. As I’ve mentioned before, she has more siblings in my AU. Here are two of them.

Casander or called Cas by everyone (Cassie by Venus but that’s only to annoy him) is the oldest out of the siblings. He’s calm and gentle, even though he’s a huge man (at least by Lynphean standards). Though his temper sometimes gives. He definitely takes his status as oldest sibling seriously. He also gets his looks after his dad. ALSO…he is a water mage, a type of wizard that is only exclusive to Andros and Lynphea that control and are connected to water of all types, they’re usually called the Council of Water in political settings. Although he is the last of Lynphea’s last…for the moment.

Bast is the third oldest child. He is adopted and people usually can immediately tell. He comes from the desert region of Lynphea where the Desert Nomads reside. He is quick tempered, irritable, and kinda a solitary figure. He and Venus get into fights a lot with Cas breaking it up every time. Flora is the only one he lets his vulnerable be seen. He feels out of the whole family - she is the best out of all of them. It may also be that she is a lot younger than him (I’ll show ages later but the gap between the three older siblings and Flora and Miele is pretty significant). He also controls fire and heat. (If you see what’s going on here, all I have to say is that Avatar the Last Airbender was a major influence for me with this family. But only a small influence).

Last is Silvio (or Silvie but only Taima, his wife,can call him that). He’s Flora’s father. He has been a fighter on Lynphea for majority of his life. It has hardened him but don’t let his stoic features fool you. Let’s just say, Flora gets a lot of her personality from him, especially the peace keeping aspect. But he is a loving father who would do anything to protect his family. His appearance is very much inspired by the elves from Lord of the Rings.

I’d also like to note that they all have long hair, that is a key aspect of Lynphean culture that they like to grow out their hair. Even the women do. It has cultural significance. Venus is an exception. There is a story to come later.

I am gonna draw the women too and post them. This was mainly me practicing drawing faces - mainly men. Still trying to find my style and perfect it. Mistakes were made - mainly with Silvio and Cas. I don’t have experience drawing braids and those two are living proof of that.

Anywho, enjoy!

[witchbitchartist]

I’d like to let you in on some of my Winx Rewrite that I am very proud of right now.

Meet the Chaneques - an elite group of female fairies from Lynphea who are under the control of the Queen Mother (what the Lynpheans call their Queen - a nod to the moniker “Mother Nature”). They were officiated by Queen Mother Taima Guerrero del Bosque (aka, in my AU, Flora’s mother).

I’m gonna state here that my AU is that Flora is royalty (1 out of 2 on Lynphea) but she wasn’t born royal and her and her family are definitely not happy to be royalty. While it’s every fairy’s dream to be a princess, Flora and her family would have rather stayed dirt poor because their love for one another was all that they needed. Also, death follows them once they become royalty. Making everything harder on the family.

In this AU, Lynphea hasn’t been in a state of pure peace for a while when other realms are out to steal their resources and destroy the land that the Lynpheans had formed a spiritual connection to. Their resistance meant attacks from these other realms which meant the Lynpheans had no other choice but to get aggressive in return.

One such act was when a group of young female fairies would wear masks and cloaks and in the dead of night, attack camps with reeds from a nearby river, chasing away those that they did not welcome into their village. A young Taima was one of them. When she became Queen, she made this special force with the intent of they serve the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother only and that their identities will remain a secret. Not even the Lynpheans know who they are.

Some interesting facts:

I was gonna use the Ruby Throated Hummingbird as the basis of their design but the long beak was hard to design and felt like a hindrance.

I went with the Quetzal since it’s South American (which is what I’m basing Lynphean design and culture off of. Latina culture in general. Indigenous people especially.)

To keep identities safe, these ladies have a ton of glamour on their body. I’m talking glamour spell with a couple of glamour charms. I headcanon that Lynpheans are whizzes when it comes to glamour magick, mostly because they use it on a daily basis.

They do hover and their wings do make a humming sound like a hummingbird. That was one thing that I had kept since the first thought I had of them. They also hover like one and their wings (obviously) beat faster than normal fairies (that’s also a glamour charm in the works)

How the glamour charms work: if someone takes the mask off of a Chaneque, a charm will alter their appearance so their identity remains a mystery

The name came from a nature spirit (a fairy to be more specific) from Aztec folklore. They are known to guard nature and frighten away intruders.

This is all I have on them right now, if more comes to mind, I’ll add on. To wrap this up, they aren’t the only warriors on the realm. They are just a more covert type. There is actually ones that are mainly just men (by tradition).

If you have any questions, please ask. I would love to answer them. And sorry about the poor quality sketch, I’m working on my style.

[witchbitchartist]
