Notes on St. Paddy's

A week ago, Livehörnchen and me were at the St. Patrick's Day Festival in Fürth. The location "Grüner Baum" was lovingly decorated in green all over the place.

On Friday, March 15th, the United Kiltrunners hosted three concerts in the inn: Darth Polly, Deus Vult and Tir Nan Og. Traditional folk met Steampunk met modern folk-rock.

I posted a whole gallery of band shots on my Facebook page, check it out here.

People from young to old came in their greenest green clothes and celebrated the event happily. The atmosphere was all jolly and a bit tipsy here and there, too.

After all, it was a great party event and we will surely come back to it next year. The best part is that all surpluses go directly to the non-profit association - the Kiltrunners help elderly or handicapped people on their ways through the town. Thanks for the oppurtunity and see you in Fürth! Zouberi with Livehörnchen

Explaining my Valtor’s Circle AU :

Foreboding warning that this AU was quite literally fueled by shipping, which I mention in the last section. Also gonna tag @temoti @gamergirl-lumine @lonelybiscuits and @calissarowan

The premise is simple: After the events of season 4, Valtor returns, revives Duman and takes the wizards as his henchmen as well as having the Black Circle. The wizards were found in the Omega and from there, they decide to go back to Earth through the mirror in Tir Nan Og. Valtor takes over Tir Nan Og and turns all the Earth Fairies into changelings - except Morgana since she’s not there. Now him and the wizards use Tir Nan Og as their lair and help villains with their goals to cause chaos and anarchy.

How’s Valtor alive? Basically, since Bloom survived the Water Stars, so did he, only being reduced to a spark. He was able to reform his body but his demon form has been altered to be a mix of his human form and demon one due to him being much weaker, so he’s forced to have a smaller body (not like he isn’t used to one by now). Valtor ended up stumbling into the Omega where Duman was, in his bat form and frozen by Nabu. Once Valtor freed him, he asked where to find the others.

Valtor’s goal isn’t to become the most powerful, now he wants the world to crash and burn and for heroism to cease as a personal vengeance towards the Winx. He still steals powerful magic from other planets and holds them inside of the Black Circle. For extra safety, he entrusted the circle to Gantlos, his personal servant/assistant, and turned it into a collar for him with to wear with a bell on it.

Other than having Gantlos as his personal servant/assistant, Ogron is the group’s mage, meaning he analyzes magical artifacts/books/scrolls and is trained more in his offensive magic, while Duman and Anagan are both messengers, updating him on the villains he helps out to brew more chaos and anarchy.

Gantlos has a one-sided crush on Ogron, but Ogron is very rude and condescending to him. Anagan and Duman aren’t any better, either not caring or blaming Gantlos for it. Despite this, Gantlos hopes Ogron will recognize his feelings for him, and him glossing over Ogron’s behavior has something to do with Yllidith. However, after an argument they had which got heated, Valtor and Gantlos made a deal to have a secret affair so Gantlos can feel respected in the group. (Ik kinda cringe but like this AU was fueled by shipping Vantlos. But if you guys are still interested I have more lore outside of the affair stuff)

That’s everything about the basic premise of the AU. I’ll post more about it in the future tho I’ll also be busy with life stuff such as an art portfolio and getting a driving licencse. Otherwise, I’ll see you guys on the flipside!

The Coming of Lugh illustrated by Maude Gonne.

When Lugh put on the helmet of Mananaan, brightness shot into the sky as if a new sun had risen; when he put on the breast plate, a great wave of music swelled and sounded through Tir-nan-oge; when he mounted the white horse, a mighty wind swept past him, and lo ! the companions Mananaan had promised, rode beside him. Their horses were white like his, and gladness that age cannot wither shone in their faces.

When they came to the sea that is about Tir-nan-oge, the little crystal waves lifted themselves up to look at Lugh, and when he and his comrades sped over the sea as lightly as blown foam, the little waves followed them till they came to Ireland, and the three great waves of Ireland thundered a welcome—the wave of Thoth, the wave of Rury, and the long, snow-white, foaming wave of Cleena.

No one saw the Faery Host coming into Ireland. At the place where their horses leaped from sea to land there was a great wood of pine trees.

Zenothe

(Currently creating lore in my head for different universes/characters in Winx Club, so introducing the first out of three for Darcy's planet, that is not cannon but in my two fanfictions it is: Zenothe)

~Several Earth cultures have roots and influences from similar ones in the Magical Dimension, and the practice of modern-day witchcraft is one of them. In the year 58 A.D. (after the Great Dragon's descent onto the planet of Domino, therefore creating the Magic Dimension) several witches from Domino migrated to Earth to find peace, as at this time it was just found out that every witch had roots in a creature from Oscurita that had just been closed. Witches were also figuring out how to use their powers as no one knew how witch magic worked and that one must use negative emotions.

~When the Wizards of the Black Circle went to Tir Nan Og (all of the wizards were outcasted and wanted revenge on fairies) the witches left Earth, knowing that the fairies always hated them and that they didn't owe them anything.

~The witches then transported themselves to a dark planet that orbited Solaria's moon, which was uninhabited. It was dim most of the time and greyish, but still beautiful. It was completely empty and barren. One of the witches sacrificed her body for everyone else to perform a siphoning ritual that made plants begin to grow from her last life force and magic, and they have a holiday for this. (The Day of Life). The witch's name was Ruse, hence the Grimore of Ruse, where all the main laws of Zenothe are kept

~The original witches (originally from Domino) created a small altar with a dark flame, known as the lifeblood of Zenothe considering it has none as it was dead before they arrived. Domino's lifeblood is the Great Dragon, Solaria's in the three suns, etc.

~They began to build the towns there using the trees around the area and soon built a good place. Over the years to the current day, it hasn't changed much, but they've added some more technology to their lives.

~Eventually, word got out and witches who were also disliked went to Zenothe and soon the population grew. They practiced their traditions in peace and were sort of outcasted from the rest of the Magical Dimension, though trade deals are still substantial between Zenothe and Linfea.

~Zenothe is prosperous in ore, rare plants for potions and rituals, and animals for meat and whatnot (and... also rituals lol). Linfea is prosperous in plants, produce and plants that need a lot of sunlight but does not have any ore.

~Any faries or specialists who want to live there are welcome, but it is common courtesy across the Magical Dimension to respect the customs of the planets one visits. As long as you follow Zenothian customs---outlaid in the Grimore of Ruse.

~However, the Grimoire can be added to as long as it is negotiated with the citizens and the coven heads. You'll be fine and welcome if you come to Zenothe, but if you don't purposfully follow customs then expect glares. The same goes for other planets anyway

~(Population: 89% witches, 6% specialists/wizards, 5% faries)

~Grimore of Ruse: 15 Zenothian Customs, one created by each of the 15 witches that first arrived at Zenothe from Domino. But other witches came to Zenothe afterwards so no incest occurred. Also, someone from specific planets can request a Zenothian trail before the Coven Heads.

~The ones with this agreement are Linfea/Zenothe and are allowed to request trials from each other, but in the current day (after my story S.S.S. when the Shaman Witch is defeated and everyone relatively goes back to their lives) planets such as Solaria and Diamond are trying to form trade alliances.

~Solaria for rare plantlife that doesn't grow in the sun, and Diamond for the same reason and animals because they are rebuilding thier ecosystem after the fall of the Shaman Witch and while Icy is crown princess.

~Grimoire of Ruse:

(From Ruse) Always respect the resources the land gives you; the magic, the plants, the animals, and all natural resources.

2. Treat all with respect to matter the past, present, or future. (May exclude the below if the act was purposful with no sign of mental damage).

3. Those charged with acts of sexual assualt if purposful and void of mental damage will be magically and perminantly circumcised no matter the sex.

4. Welcome all to Zenothe as long as customs are followed, and one has the responsability to follow the customs of the plants they go to.

5. The people have the right to overthrow the Coven heads if they choose to ignore the wishes of the people/ignore the Grimore of Ruse and call for a re-election.

6. The people have the right to free speech, religion, and freedom of action as long as one does not abuse this right to make others feel unwelcome/un-respected (which most people do not abuse this right.)

7. No matter the act all are entitled to a trail in front of the Coven Heads (basically the main covens are the government and sub-covens can be invited/requested/can request to be a part of a trail) and the people of Zenothe.

8. If part of a designated coven one must uphold the values of said coven or else face warnings (one is entitled to three unexcused warnings) or expulsion from the coven for a maximum of two years.

9. Magea (faries, specialists, witches, wizards, undines, pixies, etc) sacrifices are illegal unless facing life or death circumstances and the act is voluntary. Creature (the word animal isn't used in the Magical Dimension) sacrifices are only legal if necessary and approved by Coven Cervus and all its members, as well as Coven Tempus. (More information about the covens is later on)

10. Complete eradication of any plant or animal species (if under one's own control) will have the individual face banishment from Zenothe for 50 consecutive years.

11. One can be a part of multiple covens, though only a maximum of two head covens/one head coven and two sub-covens. Freelance covens do not fall under this category, though freelance covens are able to name themselves as representatives should a trial occur.

12. One can gain Zenothian citizenship if in residency for two years, if five citizens of Zenothe can vouch for one's character, and if one swears to follow the Grimore of Ruse when residing in Zenothe for the Zenothian customs may not apply to other planets.

13. All are welcome upon passing (excluding those who had committed one of the unspeakable crimes under thier own control, these said crimes shown below) to have thier magical essence removed from thier body and siphoned over to a pendulum to hang from the Tree of Life all years past thier death; to non-sentiently give wisdom to the citizens of Zenothe.

14. The unspeakable crimes are as follows (if acted under one's own control of self and magic and sane train of thought): s$xual @ssault, eradication of any plant or animal species, murd$r, any sort of @buse

15. Those who had committed any of the unspeakable crimes under thier own control and sane train of thought will have thier Zenothian citizenship permanently removed and may face additional charges as decided by the Head Covens and the citizens of Zenothe.

~Zenothe, like a lot of the Magical Dimension, does not unnecessarily gender things. Even Solaria or Erakleon does not require male royalty to wear suits and female royalty to wear dresses and gowns. More so only during large celebrations out of traditions for those two planets. But Domino and Diamond says fuck it. Let the queens wear suits and let's get Oritel in a dress.

~If things are like that on other planets it is because of tradition and not because of outright hate. Such as not wanting a prince to marry another prince as the bloodline must continue. But honestly, most planets will accept two princes marrying each other if they find a doner of a royal lineage. Erakleon and Andros are more strict on that and less lenient because of tradition, but some people are just assholes it's not a planet-wide hate thing.

~As Zenothe runs on an electoral democracy (different powerful coven heads are elected and nominations for others can occur) monarchy and lineage means fuck all. Powerful witches with powerful lineages are still respected, but they have a belief that power can always be developed and that everyone is valued. 

~There are five primary covens that oversee different aspects, and the coven heads receive applications for the covens and normally open any who are dedicated to putting the work into it.

Coven Viridis: Oversees the plant life of Zenothe and makes sure that no plant species are overused. Consists primarily of nature magea (mainly plant element, air element, ground element, along those lines)

2. Coven Cervus: Oversees the animal life of Zenothe, sets protections, healthy and ethical hunting. (Magea can be vegan, vegetarian, et cetera but just respect all. As long as you respect where the meat comes from). A sub-section of Coven Cervus is the Protectors (Darcy joins them later on after the events of S.S.S.) who research wildlife, new species, and dangerous species, and also stop them from getting too close to the several main settlements.

3. Coven Societas: Oversees meetings between covens/disputes that concern economics or societal structure. Makes sure the currency/pay rate is going well, watches over supply and demand and intervenes if needed.

4. Coven Homines: Oversees Coven Council meetings, Coven Head elections, how well the covens are functioning, school systems, and social programs. People stuff. Also suggestions to the Grimoire of Ruse along with the last coven.

5. Coven Tempus: Oversees the traditions/customs/events of Zenothe. Reads over the Grimore of Ruse, and suggestions to it but they can only happen if agreed by all five of the Covens and the people of Zenothe.

~One can be a part of a primary coven (or multiple but it's like a full-time job so it's not recommended, and yes, you get paid) and be part of a sub coven. Primary covens are funded by Coven Societas. Sub-covens are not named typically and are funded by grants from Coven Societas and donations, also pay a good amount but just a bit less.

~Zenothian Corpus Os (body bone, as until the trade deal with Linfea started they used bones from animals as currency) is the currency. They still use the name even though they use Linfean currency: Diya, small compressed coin-like disks of compressed plant waste/fossilized wood/other. 

~The exchange rate between Diya/Corpus Os to Earth dollars is 5 U.S. dollars for every 1 Diya/Corpus Os. It has more value than the typical dollar and one can go to Coven Societas to cut some of thier Corpus Os in halves/quarters for smaller purchases.

~Primary Coven wage: 24 Corpus Os per day of satisfactory work. 9 am to 5 pm is one day of work, and one can request extra work/overtime. (Deemed satisfactory by the observer, with one in each group working within the coven.)

~Sub-Coven wage: 15 Corpus Os per day of satisfactory work. 10 am to 3 pm is one day of work, and one can request extra work/overtime up to two extra hours otherwise the sub-coven hours become primary coven hours, which have to be observed by one of the primary covens. Usually for those with two incomes/with children, which is why two combined is more than the primary coven wage because children do be expensive.

~Normal job wage: 21 Corpus Os per day (9 am to 5 pm) or 12 Corpus Os per day (10am to 3pm). It is not as organized and one can self-direct more, so it normally includes less work in a lot of cases. Normal jobs are not that common

~Since witches were too busy trying to find somewhere where they were not hated gender also means fuck all. Concepts of boys, girls, man, woman, not either, et cetera, and whatnot still exist in Zenothe but they're more of a term to express oneself instead of assigning a gender based on sex. Also, with sexual orientation people have preferences and typically you don't need a word for them, but honestly, you can have a word for it (migration between planets brings new words woohoo) or not and either way people will love you.

~Just depends on whether you want a label or not.

(Zenothe is top tier we love it.)

~So if you take someone from Zenothe, bring them to Earth, and someone rudely tells them girls must wear dresses (and that French genders literal ice cream as masculine) they'll generally be like "Why wtf?" and debunk every possible argument.

(More information regarding Zenothe and my headcanons for Winx Club hopefully will come soon)

(Genually I spent too long on this but eheh)

Liminal Spaces

So I wanted to talk about liminal spaces before heading towards my next post, cause things are gonna get trickier. Liminal spaces, are in essence an empty space, something in between.

Think about physical places that are in between like bridges, crossroads, rivers, lakes, beaches, hallways. Corridors, doorways. Graveyards. A forest glade, some valleys.

And when talking about time, because liminal spaces are not only physical but also mental state. Think about the way you feel or think around dawn, dusk, sunset, afternoon and midnight which are perfect examples of liminal spaces through time. Clouds. Yes, clouds (Please note how Saeran wanted to be represented as a cloud) are also considered liminal. Windows and, mirrors.

So why? Why am I talking about liminal spaces when I should be talking about the Cheritzverse? Well, because it does tie.

The word liminal comes from limen. Which translates from latin into umbral. It is meant to be something between destinations. A transition. Usually making the person feel like it’s experiencing an uncanny valley sort of feeling.

There’s a feeling of eerie loneliness, something that shouldn’t be but it is. That’s why you feel weird when you have to stay after classes, when everything is eerily silent. Classrooms are also liminal spaces, but not because of the place, but because of what they represent: Time is passing by. Time that has stopped. Something in between.

It does not have to be physical to be part of a transition. As long as it’s an area or a state of mind where you feel, it has no purpose, or that it has lost the original purpose, it’s a liminal space. They’re threshold-like.

And here’s where things start to get interesting.

They also exist as magical spaces. People know them as “The In-Between” or “The Otherworld” so we even have celebrations around those liminal spaces: Samhain/Halloween being the most popular worldwide speaking.

Samhain it’s known as a celebration where the veil between this world and the other, is very thin, so thin spirits, fae, and dead, can cross.

Isn’t it curious that crossroads are also perfect to make deals with demons? Nothing here’s a coincidence, because these places/spaces are also great for divination, meditation, spirit work, and astral travel.

And this is where the fairies live. Here, there, nowhere, everywhere. In a corner, in middle of the mist…. their world overlaps with ours. According to mythology and traditional stories, they are usually in transit places. Because apparently these places hold certain type of energy that makes them just right for them.

Through a different frequency, the only ones who can see it are those with certain gifts and lucky ones.

From crossroads, highways, bridges, and even forest glades. Fairies seem to root for something in-between. Do you guys remember how I said to you last time that water it’s conductive? Yes, they can be found near the ocean, lakes, rivers, fountains, waterfalls and even, hang onto it: Islands. (I'm thinking about Jumin's, Saeran's, June's and in some cases Harry's too~)

In the cities and our houses they can be find around the stairs, wardrobes, the stairs and corners. See how they're basically liminal spaces?

According to my fairy bible (see bibliography), some people say its on The Hollows, the prehistoric mounts on Ireland where the Tuatha Danann existed once. The creatures where also known as Sidhe. Another concept is called Tir-nan-Og, a magic city located in the west, across the sea. Or so they say~

Have you ever felt like, you shouldn’t be in a certain place? That you’re not welcomed? Or you’re being watched? There are several places around the houses or old buildings where you will feel it’s cold. Places where you feel a change of energy and it’s better to avoid them. Some places will try to lure you, so it depends.

And that's another thing about fairy worlds, their logic it’s different from ours, which means we’re not meant to understand everything or make it fit, because it will never be. According to my fairy bible (please understand I’m roughly translating this from spanish) there are some cities which you can find or meet through dreams.

Gorias. City of Air and East.

Finias. City of Fire and South.

Murias. Water and West.

Falias. Earth and North.

See? This does not only ties directly with The Doll Room in Nameless and The Dandelion Room we ( @smol-grey-tea and @cherrychipheart ) apparently cannot open~ but also its purpose.

Plus it's also tied with the planets, but we'll leave it here and I'll explain that in my next post♡

Roxy and Morgana, a retake:

Ok... I don't know you all but for me, Roxy being Morgana's daughter feels so... weird?? Like Morgana was imprisoned centuries ago but she somehow went 16 years ago, had fun with klaus, gave birth to a daughter and then disappeared again?? It always bothered me. She could have maybe temporarily escape and got distracted by klaus but I don't really like that idea

A quick solution I came with could be that instead of being Morgana's daughter, Roxy could be her descendant (Basically her great great great, you get the deal), Morgana could have had a daughter that eventually fled to the human world after the whole Tir Nan Og tragedy and settled with humans, having the magic dormant in the family for generations until it finally popped up again when Roxy came into the picture. (Or maybe it could have popped up before but Roxy doesn't really know much from her mother's family anyways....)

Feeling all that power deep inside this girl, Morgana could contact her and start the whole reviving Tir Nan Og and freeing the earth fairies ordeal. And in contrast the wizards could also start sensing this magic again and give chase.

(We won't talk about bloom right now, probably will talk about it in a season 4 rewrite ideas post later)

But going back to Roxy, this could lead to maybe her being interested in her background, after all "Who was her mother?" Plus all the Morgana dreams contacting her... maybe she could think Morgana is her mom, or an ancestor guiding her.

Plus it would mark much more the difference between roxy and Morgana. Roxy is the mix between a fairy and a human (mostly all human now since her fairy ancestor is from generations ago) so she could feel conflicted that she doesn't understand the way of thinking of her magic people, morgana on the other hand, could maybe see her own daughter in Roxy, which is why she's so desperate for her to join, in a way wanting Roxy to be her "daughter", maybe telling her something like "This is what a fairy should do (name for Morgana's daughter)" and Roxy telling her "I'm not her! I'm Roxy"

A conflict that could occur is that Morgana doesn't exactly care about Roxy as an individual, but more in the fact that she sees her as her late daughter, wanting her to be her. Basically a replacement, which is sad but well... We can have more evil fairies >:)

Morgana intruding in Roxy's mind could even be more scary, since she would always be telling her stuff, wanting to control her, to make her join her. She would want Roxy in her possession, whether she wants it or not.

Picture as scenes like this, with Morgana being angry, telling roxy to stop helping the winx, wanting to control her but Roxy always managing to stop it via herself or the winx giving her a hand.

After all, even tho Morgana is cold, she has a soft spot for Roxy, as she would clearly tell her fairies to not hurt her. She wants to have Roxy by her side so she could (in a way) have her daughter again. But this time... have her do what she wants.

In conclusion to summarise:

• Roxy is Morgana's descendant and she is being contacted by her after the fairy queen noticed her huge power inside.

• Morgana had a daughter named (in process so no name), who fled to the human world after a fight with her mother.

Thanks to this, she survived the Tir Nan Og catastrophe and managed to live on, her descendants carrying her legacy until the recent era, aka: Roxy.

• Morgana doesn't take Roxy into account really, sometimes calling her by her late daughter name, and wanting her to act like she says, this would be very clear after Roxy frees the earth fairies. Having Morgana invading her mind much more often, telling her to join her side and to help her "real people".

• Roxy looks the same as always but in this retake, the earth fairies would have a different physical appearance to look more "magical" like having pointy ears similar to elfs and looking a little different so they can have some differences with humans but still share other things. (Imagine them with ears like tinkerbell)

This would mark more the divide between Roxy and Morgana.

• Earth fairies are no saints, this would be better explained in other posts.

This could be considered an idea dump about some ideas I have for a season 4 rewrite.

320. Various Authors - Imagine #17 (August 1984)

This issue of Imagine starts out with the news that the Player's Association, the British equivalent of the RPGA in the US, is ending. This is an important topic for Imagine which started its life as the newsletter for the Player's Association, now it has outgrown its parent association and has become a magazine by itself. Apparently this won't affect Imagine as a magazine, which now reaches normal newsagents shelves and not only specialty shops and PA members.

The issue this month focuses on the Celts, with articles on their history and Magic as well as a whole mini-module for AD&D set in a Celtic-like land, entitled Tir Nan Og. Other interesting articles cover what players can do with their money and how to spend it effectively and there is a whole article on the Drow by David R. Knowles, which bases itself on the Descent into the Depths series (D1-3) and extrapolates a Drow society from there. Unfortunately, this is an extrapolation that will be superseded by official TSR material as the Drow develop, particularly under R.A. Salvatore's novels. 

There is also an article here further detailing the world of Pellinore, the world where the original adventures published in Imagine are set. Lastly the magazine reprints a preview of Frank Mentzer's Companion Set for the BECMI system of D&D.

St. Patrick’s Day Festival - Fürth

Fürth goes green again! Franconia's 'Shamrock City' Fürth celebrates St. Patrick's Day with a little music festival. The event will take place at the Grüner Baum inn, which fits pretty well, don't you think? On March 15th, there will be three concerts featuring the local bands Darth Polly, Deus Vult and Tir Nan Og and we will be there to share photos and stories of the event. Nadine has summed up all the info for you in German:

Bereits zum zweiten Mal veranstaltet der United Kiltrunners e.V. in der Kleeblattstadt Fürth ein kleines Festival zum St. Patrick’s Day. Vom 15. bis 16. März 2024 wird es im Gasthof „Grüner Baum” wieder irisch: mit Livemusik, DJs und jeder Menge Partystimmung. Das Kleeblatt, die Vorliebe zur Farbe Grün und die Liebe zur Musik verbinden Fürth mit der grünen Insel, sodass es kaum anders sein könnte, als dass der irische Nationalfeiertag auch hier gefeiert wird. 🍀🎶💚

Seid mit dabei, wenn Irish Folk und Mittelalter-Rock aufeinandertreffen! Am Freitag heizen euch Darth Polly, Deus Vult und Tir Nan Og mit einem Abend voller Livemusik ein, am Samstag wird zu Modern & Classic Rock und Irish Folk & Rock von DJ Markus und Udo getanzt. Übrigens: Alle Einnahmen aus dem Eintritt gehen zugunsten des United Kiltrunners e.V. Fürth – sodass ihr beim Feiern sogar noch was Gutes tut.

Livemusik mit drei Bands

Eröffnet wird der Freitagabend von DARTH POLLY, die mit Irish Folk und Shanties auf den St. Patrick’s Day einstimmen. Durch ihre harmonischen Satzgesänge wird so manche Gänsehaut beschworen, deren Energie dann direkt in lautes Mitsingen bei den Seefahrer-Shanties umgewandelt werden kann. Die Fürther Band war schon mehrfach auf der grünen Insel – und bringt jedes Mal ein Stück mehr Irland mit in die Kleeblattstadt.

Weiter geht es im Anschluss mit der Mittelalter-Rock-Band DEUS VULT. Klassischer Dudelsack wird hier mit E-Gitarre und Schlagzeug kombiniert. Diese spezielle Mischung macht die Oberpfälzer aus, denn die sieben Musiker sind mindestens genauso vielseitig. Durch das Einbringen von Steampunk-inspirierten Elementen sind ihre Auftritte nicht nur musikalisch, sondern auch optisch etwas ganz Besonderes.

Mit TIR NAN OG kommt eine Band zum St. Patrick’s Day Festival, die traditionelle irische Themen in ihrem ganz eigenen Sound umsetzt. Moderner Irish Folk Rock begleitet das Publikum durch den späten Abend und überzeugt mit einem Mix aus leichten Texten, aber auch dem ein oder anderen tiefgründigeren Song, wo mitgeschunkelt und -gesungen werden kann.

Left: Robin and Mocca

Right: Manuel

Center: do I really need to tell you? 😂

Mocca is Icy's coworker at the Magix disco, Robin's his boyfriend.

Manuel is an Earth fairy who transformed on his own, not knowing anything about magic and the likes. That's why his outfit is modern, like Roxy's, but the wings are more similar to those of Tir Nan Og fairies since he didn't have the Winx to inform his imagination. More extended lore checkpoint about this in the tags!

introducing my beloveds and silly little pairing dynamic i accidentally got obsessed with

ref under the cut bc i love it. and other stuff

^ i am enamored with jackass & adjacent

my roxy & selina are little enemies to friends to 😳👉👈 selina's one year older than roxy and grew up on tir nan og whenever the earth fairies fled there while roxy was left on earth as an attempt to protect her (timeline is being reworked but like lazily bc i'm nooo good at that) she Does go a bit batshit with the revenge fairies which leads her to enroll in cloudtower and fuck around w the trix while roxy's tagging with the winx which is when they meet and Clash but eventually we throw them both at alfea and bloom makes sure they room together so we can keep an eye on them And they can keep an eye on each other. whenever they get friendly they're just Annoying and they enable each other in the worst ways and they get into some shenanigans but they're fun and i'm so fond of them !!

Songs for fairies for the whimsical and magical @thislookinyoureyes

--

Just to preface this, fairies in gaelic (and I think more broadly celtic) folklore are mischievous, deadly, and not to be trifled with. I included some songs that sound light and airy like 'normal' fairies and then a few heavier Gàidhlig songs about the daoine sìth/sìthichean (fairies)

I know it might not be the typical fairy vibes, but I hope you still enjoy it! Thank youuuu so much for requesting, Mathilde! J'espère que cette playlist vous plaira! (<- J'ai essayé de pratiquer à nouveau mon français et ce verbe semble faux) 😭
