#Winx Griselda

[ghostsprobably]

HEY LADIESSSSS

check out their video!!

[taiyoooh]

Fairy outfits for Faragonda and Griselda, and a battle outfit for Griffin. I have older verions for Faragonda and Griffin, but only Griffin's changed significantly.

Redesign for Nova since she just had her head pasted on top of Miky's.... Diaspro was for fun lol Chimera is a hypothetical post season 3 design

[griffinswitch]

Griffin is canonically bi… whichever it is lol

[electra-jolts-magnetism]

Found a meme maker and started making Winx Club memes (I'm quite proud of the last two):

in order from left to right:

Stella outfit idea, Timmy doodle, Young Stella,

Stella explaining the Magic Dimension to Bloom, Faragonda alt. outfit, the Winx Club (very old drawing),

some of Flora's family,

Aisha being a cutie, Faragonda, Griselda,

Sky, Brandon, Stella, and Diaspro playing as kids, everyone with a familiar (so far), some doodles of Wizgiz and Griffin,

Musa singing (old), Musa outfit idea, Aisha beach outfit doodle,

Sky, Brandon, Stella, and Diaspro as kids, Flora, Darcy and Icy annoying Valtor,

Bloom Andy and Selina being the closest of friends (sarcasm).

There were so many, but frankly these are the best pickings.

Rules for the Winx Club's dorm

(Inspired by rules for 1-A)

Bloom: Please stop trying to use your powers in the dorms, you've set off the fire alarm so many times that all the other students think it's broken

Stella: While it's impressive you can do your make-up while sparring, please stop. I can't grade your technique if you are distracted and not trying your best

Flora: No eco crimes of any caliber or I'm banning you from the greenhouse 

Tecna: Stop breaking through Alfea's defenses as a "test" of your skill. You are going to let someone slip in one of these days. I will make you a barrier to play around with, just stop doing it to the main one

Musa: Please keep your music at an acceptable volume

Hearing other people playing music is NOT a challenge

Aisha: Stop climbing the outside of the school. I will find somewhere for you to rock climb, you're scaring the other students by climbing past their windows 

Stop telling the other students Bloom is God. Being the Fairy that holds the power of the Great Dragon's Flame, is not the same thing as being the Great Dragon

Bloom: Stop using your powers to convince the other students you are God

Someone using purple magic is NOT bulletproof evidence that they are Darcy. Stop attacking random students

Bloom: That goes double for you

Stella: Stop telling people Tecna is a robot

Tecna: Stop using your prosthetics to help Stella convince people you are a robot

Musa: Stop giving them new ideas

Flora: While your "onion fumes" spell is incredibly creative and amazingly useful in combat scenarios, I ask that you only use it during outdoor sparring. Making everyone's eyes burn while your sparring is something we want to avoid

Musa: The Cloud Tower girls are thankful that Riven drew the attention of monsters to make their escape, they are not "hussies" attempting to "take" anything from you. Stop trying to fight them

Saladin being unable to say no to Helia is not grounds to abuse this fact to get your hands on random specialist weapons, you've already put yourselves in the infirmary multiple times. At least get someone to train you 

Aisha: This is not a challenge

Flora: Covering your enemies in hornet-attracting pollen is not an acceptable tactic to deal with bullies, please just tell me about it next time

Stop daring Aisha to do random things to see if she's naturally good at it. She probably is

Aisha: Your honor is not lost just because you can't tie a cherry stem with your tongue. Stop adding random things to your training regiment

Amaryl throwing an attack at Stella, which she batted away without a second thought, is not an acceptable reason to make a morphix monster specifically programmed to chase her around the school. I was going to expel her for that stunt anyway

Not trusting new teachers is understandable, hazing them and dumping potions of revealing on them is not. I will let you give them potions in a controlled environment

The hallways are not a controlled environment

Bloom: A specialist telling you that you'd be "prettier if you smiled" is appropriate grounds for flipping him off, not breaking his nose

Aisha: You too

Tecna: You as well

Bloom: Saying "this is exactly what her ghost warned me of" about random things in the middle of a conversation is not acceptable behavior. You are scaring the freshmen

"As the prophecy foretold" is not much better 

Just because Wizigiz says something is ok does not actually make it ok

Stella: Stop making up magical artifacts. I've gotten 16 different questions about completely made-up objects and it's obvious you're the one doing this 

Tecna: At least pretend to pay attention in class. I know you already know most of these things but building a robot on your desk distracts the other students 

Musa: Riven leaving you on "read" is not an acceptable reason to hijack the announcement system to play break-up songs, he probably just checked his phone in between training. Stop doing this. We have actual announcements to make

At least try to be subtle about the fact that you girls are under different rules than the rest of the school. The freshmen are starting to get ideas, and I don't want to deal with that many students in detention

Especially when sneaking your boyfriends in. Yes, I know. None of you are subtle 

Tecna: Stop hacking into the royal students' phones and systems. You are going to start an intergalactic war. Airing out Royalty's dirty laundry is only acceptable if it's really bad, and at least warn me first so I can find a political advisor

Aisha: Stop training the pixie animals to attack people you don't like

Bloom: Tell someone when you're going to take a surprise vacation home, last time Stella woke up the entire wing of the dorms with her screaming because she thought you were kidnapped 

If you're going to get payback for Griffin giving you the runaround when you were at Cloud Tower at least don't get caught. Griffin is somehow more annoying when she's smug

Musa: Stop trying to get the girls to start a band with you, Tecna is tone-deaf, I know you're just doing this to annoy people. Stop it

Tecna: Making a complication of Erendor and Samara making fools of themselves is funny, hacking the projector system to show it during an assembly is not. Just mass text it to everyone, I know you can, you didn't need to do that

If your going to skip class because of a magical emergency it better be a real emergency or I'm going to tell your teachers to start grading your missed assignments

Stella: A bad hair day is not an emergency 

Aisha: Stop intentionally riling up Riven when he's at the doom, I don't care how funny you find annoying him is, just because we can fix property damage with magic doesn't make it acceptable

Stella: Stop biting people. Just stop. It's unsanitary

Do not have Riven, Sky, and Helia at your dorm at the same time. I've heard how those two can get when Helia is there to instigate and I'm not dealing with that. If I get a hint of those three being around at the same time I'm giving you all detention

On that note, if Riven and Sky are going to be in the dorms either keep them in different rooms or have Brandon there to mediate

Tecna and Musa: Stop using your powers to freak out the freshmen when you tell them stories of your battles

Stop using your power to freak out Stella in general 

Stop trying to freak out Flora, it won't work

Flora: Just because you haven't blown anything up in the lab yet, doesn't mean your experiments are permitted 

Musa: Please control your pixie. She's convinced half the students she has the authority to give them detention, and while she's not wrong about their punishments, she can't keep doing this

Bloom: Lording your newfound strength above your enemies is not an acceptable way to use magic. If you're going to mess with this "Mitzi" do it during the breaks 

Please be aware of who is around when you ask Brandon questions about his life as a royal guard. Ophelia has had multiple girls show up because they overheard him talking about torture in graphic detail

Flora: Please warn me when you invite Miele over. Yes, only you and only Miele. I can't even begin to describe the amount of chaos that child can cause with her bugs

If you don't warn me I'm banning all of your siblings from visiting 

Bloom: Please stop avoiding the staff's questions about Kiko. He can perfectly comprehend language. Why can he comprehend language Bloom

~ Griselda, Head of Discipline

(I forgot about Winx AU)

The grandkids were looking around awed and curious as they were ushered into their seats with the teachers during the Day of Royals.

"Remember. Always stay with an adult you know. If you need or want to do anything just tell one of us." Faragonda was assuring her grandkids and she noticed Saladin was staring at them.

"These must be the mysterious and beloved grandkids I've heard about." Saladin said grinning at them and they all looked at him.

"Wow you're older than granny!" Camilo said and was promptly elbowed by his older sister while Isabella and Mirabel snickered.

"Actually. I'm the same age as her and Griffin and Griselda." Saladin said smiling and amused, he missed blunt children.

"Tia Griselda?" Dolores squeaked surprised at that.

"I was Faragondas roommate in school." Griselda admitted amused.

"But you look younger than mama!" Mirabel gaped at the woman who smirked and patted the girls head.

"Right well...are you looking forward to the events?" Faragonda asked as Griffin tried to smother her laughter while Griselda radiated smugness.

"I wanna see the dragons!" The children were near cheering in unison at that, their little faces alight with eager glee.

"Not the sword fights?" Palladium asked from in front of them.

"Who wants to watch a bunch of dumb boys hit each other with sharp sticks?" Isabella asked confused and Saladin choked at how she described it.

"She's got a point." Griffin grinned at that and Faragonda sighed.

"Stop trying to corrupt and steal my grandkids!"

"Never!"

So did I 🌚 TIME TO RUN IT BACK���️‼️

The kids being excited about the dragons though is so real. Shoutout to all the teachers/headmasters being cool with the kids. I mean they don’t really have much of a choice but like it’s the thought that counts 💀💀

But like who would wanna watch sword fighting. It gets boring if it drags on, at least with fencing it’s pretty quick. Unless that swording fighting is to the death, you best believe them kids is going to see dragons instead, given the opportunity 🙏

🩷 Pink and 💛 Yellow with characters of your choosing

Thanks for the ask!

🩷 Pink: Do you find a certain character (or characters) easy to write? More difficult -- and if so, do you avoid writing that character (or those characters) when possible?

Griselda is such a hard character to write. You have to tread very carefully the line between making her a stereotype and keeping her in character. What we got on the show does not help with that at all. There are a few moments that keep her from being flat and falling too hard into the stern teacher archetype but overall we don't have much to work with. I don't exactly avoid writing her but I certainly make her presence in a story somewhat sparse compared to all the other characters that are in the story. I do have certain headcanons to help flesh her out but I haven't exactly figured out what I want to get out of her inclusion in a story so I always feel like she ends up as more a plot device and/or accessory rather than a character in her own right... and by god, she deserves better.

💛 Yellow: Do you ever alter, highlight, or de-emphasize certain canonical traits in a character? If so, why and describe how.

Well... I did Griffin and Valtor so I have to go with Faragonda for this one. They are my main trio, after all.

Hm, this is going to be a little hard to explain but what I do is take her incidental "shady" behavior in canon (which is definitely the result of the writers trying to shape the plot so that Winx are always front and center no matter how much sense that makes or how it affects other characters) and then I make it a learned trait that she picked up from her mother (and somewhat from Marion). By that I mean that I have given her a sense for politics as well as somewhat a manipulative streak although that may not be very apparent from my body of work so far as I tend to write her more interacting with Griffin where those things hardly ever come into play. But the idea is that she absolutely learned how to navigate politics from her mother and well, if she ends up manipulating people outside of that sometimes, nobody's perfect. It's not in any way meant to make her a villain or questionable but rather to highlight her choices in regards to her heritage.

I am definitely working with the idea that she used to be a witch but her dark magic was out of control so she decided to become a fairy for her own sake and everyone else's. In doing so she ended up creating a big rift between herself and her mother and so watching her choose when to use what she's learned from her mother and when to act in a completely polar manner is a means to afford her more opportunities to state herself. It's a way to show her being her own person - not just through rejecting her mother's influence out of spite and a bid to differentiate herself from her but also through embracing it on her own terms. It helps flesh her out as a character when her family and childhood have shaped her so thoroughly but she's still the one defining herself in regards to them. Plus, I live for the irony that is my headcanon that the only reason why the previous headmistress of Alfea chose Faragonda as her successor instead of Griselda is Faragonda's intuition for politics. You know, the thing she picked up from her mother, who is soooooooo unhappy that her daughter ended up heading the most prominent fairy school in the universe.

The Winx Reboot better remember that Griselda and Griffin are Taller than Faragonda or I swear to fucking god I’m going to lose my shit

Seven seasons. FOR SEVEN FUCKING SEASONS, TOTALING 183 EPISODES AND SPANNING 11-12 YEARS (2004-2015/2016), they were taller than her, and then Season 8 airs in Italy in 2019, and suddenly, the three of them are roughly the Same. Damn. Height.

WHY?!? Why would they take away features from the Teachers? The One group of people who have consistently had more diverse body types in the show compared to the rest of the copy-pasted student characters (seriously, it’s almost as bad as My Little Pony sometimes)

[beezonia]

My brain wants me to write a fic where it’s all the winx parents in their college years

Would you guys wanna see that?

Like How Oritel and Marion fell in love same with Luna and Radius but with the addition of how they sort of fell out of love

I just wanna explore the adult characters a bit more

Especially Griselda, Griffin and Faragonda! They’d be fun to write about!
