#helia and musa

[darlenicy]

Has anyone ever considered Musa & Helia being a thing? I mean just THINK about it! They're both the artsy ones in their group: Helia with drawing and poetry and Musa with her music. They would complement each other so well characterwise too. Musa could turn Helia's poems into songs and they could write songs together. Musa's music could inspire Helia to draw and vice versa Musa could imagine stories from the pictures Helia drew and combine the feelings and emotions in songs too. There is so much going on with them. Helia is the introvert and Musa is definitely the extrovert who would make Helia get out of his shy comfort zone and Helia would calm Musa's temper. I have so many headcanons for them!

Musa and Helia Moodboard (Platonic Soulmates Edition)

They’re the writers of the group, pouring their souls out in the form of words. They are also probably some of the most sensitive in the squad

Helia is the only person Musa trusts enough to help write her songs

They bond over some very intense emotions they try to keep hidden and just having a lot of complex and confusing emotions

They love just hanging out on his roof and talking. She teaches him how to play the piano, he tries to teach her to meditate but she doesn’t like it very much

Helia’s mom is from Melody but he never really got the chance to connect with that side of his heritage so Musa really helps him embrace his culture and celebrating a few Melody holidays and that kind of thing

Bad Liar by Imagine Dragons, Heathens by Twenty One Pilots and Swinging Party by Lorde are their songs

silly headcanons about Winx characters’ home planets (part 1)

Linpheans rarely say, “I love you”. to them, it does not encapsulate the depth of their devotion properly.

instead, they use words that are much more… “poetic.”

for example, Bloom would casually thank Flora for helping her apply a salve to a burn of hers:

”thanks, Flo, love ya!”

and Flora would earnestly reply:

“My soul, I would part with my liver sooner than I would part with you.”

which… intense for us, Eartherns, but for Linpheans — love is not something to be treated casually.

among Linphean vernacular: “my soul”, referring to any one person you love; “my liver”, when referring to a friend you cannot live without; “my sun/moon/flower”; “my pillar”. also, when talking about a couple: “those, who were fated by the stars”.

(fun fact, all of these are real terms of endearment I took from my language <3)

she is very openly affectionate with her girls, but it takes her a bit of time to start acting similarly with the boys.

Helia and Timmy are decently well-travelled/well-learnt, so they know of this Linphean custom and are not surprised. Nabu absolutely returns the same energy to her.

Brandon just kinda takes it at face value (“you are my lifetime, friend” “👍”).

but Sky and Riven are absolutely bamboozled by how sweet Flora is, and try to awkwardly reciprocate.

like, Flora patches Riven up after a battle, and pats him on a back with:

“let the rivers of our lives cross together into an ocean forevermore, my golden friend.”

and Riven looks more scared than he ever was fighting goddamn Valtor, and whispers:

“you smell very nice?..”

Riven is obviously uncomfortable being as vulnerable and affectionate as she, so he resorts to using sweet nicknames (a-la “dove”, “love”, “sunshine”) and giving Flora compliments.

Sky is also unused to this level of affection, so whenever he is forced deal with it — he just malfunctions. literally dissociates. cannot reply for a solid twenty minutes.

He does think it’s very sweet though, so he starts taking care of Flora like a little sister. making sure she always has a little snack on a mission, giving her his jacket when it’s cold out, importing rare flowers for her, etc.

after a couple of years together, the winx and the specialists adopt this way of expressing endearment into their vernacular, and confuse the shit out of everybody else.

Reasons why I think season 2 was peak

Aisha's introduction to the group

she came to serve peak

Helia's introduction

he delivered beauty and romance

The pixies I actually like them

This episode of Riven supporting musa (epi 15)

you tell them Riven

Episodes 21 and 22 (I literally would love if the reboot would use more episodes like that

look at Riven serving looks

This Stella moment (go save Brandon u-u)

Friendship bonding! :D cute

Flora iconic daydream

dont worry girl your dream will come true

Iconic episode: Hallowinx!

Team Work at Cloud Tower, honestly the teamwork in general was peak in this season

This Stella and Aisha

THE VILLAINS! Darkar is SO underrated seriously I kinda wish on this fandom he was more discussed lol and obviously Dark Bloom forever iconic

THE ROMANCE, I really think season 2 had the best romantic moments ❤

The end ? Anyway s 2 is queen (because I can't even talk more, this season is just complete, good writing very nice villains great new characters that will stick for ever, team work delivered in more than just a few episodes... The action was good, the romance was sweet, and the fun episodes were great I think this season is where winx is at their best writing tho I understand why s 3 is the most loved ~ enchantix is the most iconic form)

[cyliarys-starlight]

I'm so pissed that the sirenix design didn't include more references (or any at all for that matter) to ocean creatures. Give Stella bioluminescence???? (I love sea stars, but be fucking for real, this is so much cooler). Whale inspired musa! Deep sea life is not only incredibly varied but very interesting, and it looks cool. Coral. Reef. Flora. Do I need to say more? Tecna could be inspired by electric eels, or electric rays, or stargazers!

Great, now I need to draw Stella with a little antenna on her forehead like an anglerfish. (Not what I had in mind, but funny anyways)

New headcanons!!!

Sky has dimples. They are only visible whenever he laughs.

Lady—Sky's pet dog—was a present from Princess Krystal, the princess of planet Lynphea.

Stella has two moles on her right shoulder and one on her left breast.

Brandon has a cleft chin. He inherited this gene from his father. Brandon also has huge scars on his face, results from being slashed by a dagger to defend his prince.

Out of everyone, it is Brandon who gets awful nightmares the most.

Riven has a huge scar on his left bicep. He got this when he was being belittled by older kids in his younger years, one of them slashing his arm with a stick. He also has a small scar on his bottom lip.

Timmy has nearsightedness, therefore the existence of his glasses. His glasses are not ordinary, however. They can be quite handy in certain situations since it is made by technology.

Timmy also knows how to play Cat's Cradle. His usual playmate in this game is Helia.

Flora is allergic to bunnies. Because of this, she avoids Kiko at all times. Flora's allergic reaction is sneezing.

Tecna is farsighted, therefore she cannot read or see things clearly that are near her eyes. However, she does not like wearing glasses as she prefer lenses.

Helia often suffers through what artists usually do. And in writing poetries, he loves writing angst (what a mood).

Musa can speak Cantonese. Despite not knowing languages in Earth, the people in planet Melody can somehow speak both Cantonese and Mandarin.

Although constantly being healed, Icy has frostbites due to her powers. They sometimes backfire, resulting to frostbites on her fingers.

Darcy actually loves to watch Rom-coms, but it eventually turns into a guilty pleasure.

Stormy is the youngest out of the triplets, so she tends to act the most immature and demanding of them all. Still, the sisters don't seem to mind.

HOW EVERYONE DIES

One day, of course, all of them will be just pages in the history book, and I am honestly wondering how they'll go. I am craving the bitter sweet cinematic montages to "I know the end" by Phoebe Bridgers. Now, I think Sky goes last. Even after Bloom. He really dies an old man, white hair, hell maybe even white eyes that no longer see the world around him, just the memories of it, of how he changed it, and of the friends and love he lost. After his death, he's given a kingly ceremony and a dragonlord's burial- aka his dragon burns the body, and after a few days, his granddaughter claims him. Stella is second to last, Brandon having been third, and it honestly broke something in her when he died. She barely moved from his crypt where the ashes are, and after a week Sky had to carry her out, telling her Brandon would not want her rotting under the ground for him, she needs to be outside where it is light, with sun shining down upon her. Stella was a ruling queen until then, but after months passed and she did not yet recover from her beloved husband's death (Brandon died of a heart attack) she abdicated in favor of her oldest daughter, Adorea, (credit for the name @cyliarys-starlight) because she no longer felt fit to rule. She removed herself from the title of The Queen and is merely Queen mother until she died ten years later, on the same day Brandon died. She died in her sleep, but honestly, many will say it was broken heart, that she was only holding on for her children, especially the young Queen that would still need her advice at times. Layla, I think, was fourth to last, and she died in battle. Idk which battle, something that should have been minor but someone managed a sneak attack. Nabu died minutes later, as he was no longer fighting but clutching her dead body, screaming for his wife to open her eyes, crying his heart out :) They were found on the battlefield, her in his arms, pierced by the same spear (since Nabu was holding her when he was speared through the back). (Still a better love story than twilight death than what season 4 gave him) They were, by human standards, in their early sixties and they were holding up GREAT, btw. You have no idea how hard I am working not to kill any of the winx in childbirth, btw- you're welcome. The only reason why I am not doing it is because the lifespan's in Winx are crazy old and who the fuck would still be having kids in their 1000s/2000s. Then we have Timmy, who in a riding accident just a few years before Nabu and Layla- he fell of a horse and broke his neck, dead on impact. Million ways to die in the west, people! He lived a great life, even managed to still find light in after Tecna's death. But he didn't die right after Tecna, no- I can't kill the couples all together. Before him, it was... Flora. No dramatics here, she just fell asleep and did not wake up. Which is much better than Musa, who, I want to be brutal, got throat cancer and refused treatment because she'd never be able to sing again. She died in her studio, with a half written song still on her desk. The instrumentals were all done, though, so the song still gets performed, the lyrics just cut off halfway through. No one finished it out of respect. I think... Ohhhhhh, the song was about coming home to Riven, who died first- their equivalent of forties. So the song is literally about her dying and reuniting with her husband. Because Riven died first, and Musa lived for centuries longer, she did date after him, but she did not marry again. She was single when she got her diagnosis though, and that's when she started wearing her wedding ring again. Her boyfriends were lovely and she did love them, in a way, it is just that Riven was always going to be the love of her life. Her friends understood that too, and had great sympathies for her for being left a widow so young.

everyone in the magic dimension has magical powers, including the specialists

a lot of fans tend to use harry potter/atla logic in winx club. in those universes not everyone owns magical powers, even though someone in the family does. i don't honestly think it's the case of winx club.

the magical dimension was created by the great dragon who brought life and magic. each planet in particular has their own magical power. so the entire universe is made of magic, right? then why should someone be powerless?? that's why i think everyone has magical powers, simply ppl don't want to use it. (they may attend normal high schools/universities instead of alfea) in general it doesn't make sense to call them humans since they weren't born on the earth. they are all aliens

big example are the specialists which is a weapons based squad. they aren't even actually completely useless in an universe of wizards and fairies! in fact they are pretty helpful in wildland episodes because winx girls can't transform. they are probably a special force, useful in anti-magic environments. so they decided not to use their magic to become good knights. in any case they need to be magical creatures since they can easily cross alfea's barrier (we should talk about this barrier anyway, since they don't deal with humans much who is it meant to be for?? i suppose some animals that aren't fairy animals, who knows)

in general winx club works differently from other magical worlds. in the most of fantasy books characters were born as witches or faries. instead in winx club ppl were born as magical creations who can decide how to use their magic. mirta in fact at first was a witch then she became a fairy.

to sum up winx club shouldn't be compared to other fantasy works because this universe works in a COMPLETELY different way

The Storm: A Flora Helia Fic ♡︎♡︎♡︎

•takes place during the last battle with Valtor•

The battlefield was quiet, the silence more oppressive than the clash of magic that had raged moments before. Smoke rose in curling tendrils from the shattered earth, the acrid smell of burnt foliage thick in the air.

Helia stumbled over uneven ground, his chest heaving with every breath. Around him, the remnants of the battle were devastating: uprooted trees, scorched grass, and crumbled stone from the ancient ruins where the Winx had fought.

But Helia’s thoughts were on one person.

“Flora,” he murmured, scanning the chaos with a growing sense of dread. She had been at the heart of the fight, using her magic to protect her friends and the land she loved so fiercely. But when Valtor unleashed his final attack, the group had been scattered. Helia hadn’t seen her since.

“Flora!” he called, his voice raw as he pushed through the wreckage, ignoring the ache in his muscles.

A faint, pained groan reached his ears. His heart leapt, and he sprinted toward the sound.

He found her slumped against a fallen tree, her delicate frame battered and bloodied. Her arms were scratched and bruised, her normally vibrant pink and green outfit torn and singed. Her face, pale and streaked with dirt, was turned slightly toward him, her eyes fluttering weakly as if struggling to stay open.

“Flora,” Helia breathed, dropping to his knees beside her. His hands hovered uncertainly over her injuries, afraid to touch her and cause more pain.

Her lips moved, but no sound came out at first. Finally, she managed a whisper, her voice barely audible. “Helia…”

“I’m here,” he said quickly, his tone trembling with both relief and fear. “You’re going to be okay. I’ve got you.”

Flora tried to smile, but it turned into a wince. “I… tried to stop him…”

“You did, you did great,” Helia reassured her, brushing a strand of her hair away from her face. His hand came away stained with blood, and his stomach twisted. “you’re hurt, lets get out of here.”

“The others… are they safe?”

“They are“ he lied.

Flora closed her eyes, tears slipping down her cheeks.

Helia’s jaw tightened. “are you okay? Does something hurt?.”

“Im tired Helia, Im so tired.“

“I know, but its over now.“

Her only response was a faint sigh, her breathing shallow. Panic surged through Helia, but he forced himself to stay calm.

“lets try to stop the bleeding,” he muttered to himself, tearing a strip from his cloak to bandage a deep gash on her arm. His hands shook as he worked, every groan of pain from Flora making him flinch.

“Its alright Flora,” he whispered as he wrapped the makeshift bandage tightly. “I need you to stay awake, okay?”

Her eyes fluttered open briefly, the green in them duller than he’d ever seen. “Helia…”

“I’m here,”

As he worked on her injuries, Helia’s mind raced. He didn’t have the medical supplies he needed, and she was losing strength fast. If he didn’t get her to safety soon, he didn’t want to think about what might happen.

Gathering her carefully into his arms, he stood, wincing as her weight shifted against his own battered body. “Hold on, Flora. Just a little longer.”

The journey back to the ship felt endless. Every step was a battle against exhaustion, every jolt threatening to pull Flora further from consciousness. Helia spoke to her the entire time, his voice soft but urgent.

“Remember that time we went to the spring near Alfea? You told me about all the plants there, even the tiniest ones. You said they all had a purpose.“

Her head rested limply against his shoulder, but her fingers twitched faintly against his chest as if she was trying to respond.

When he finally reached the ship, the others were there, their faces etched with worry. Tecna quickly cleared a space on a bench, and Helia laid Flora down as gently as he could.

“She needs help,” he said, his voice hoarse. “Now.”

Bloom knelt beside Flora, placing her glowing hands over her injuries. “I’ll do what I can,” she said, her own exhaustion evident.

As Bloom worked, Helia knelt beside Flora, clutching her hand tightly. He didn’t care who saw the tears in his eyes.

“Flora,” he whispered, his voice breaking.

Slowly, her breathing steadied, and a faint blush returned to her cheeks. Bloom leaned back, her magic fading, and gave Helia a tired smile. “She’ll be okay. She just needs time to heal.”

Relief crashed over Helia, leaving him trembling. He pressed a kiss to Flora’s hand, his tears falling freely now. “Thank you,” he whispered, though he wasn’t sure if he was speaking to Bloom, to Flora, or to the universe itself.

Later, when Flora woke in the quiet of Alfea’s infirmary, the first thing she saw was Helia sitting beside her, his head resting on the edge of her bed, fast asleep.

She reached out weakly, brushing her fingers against his cheek. His eyes snapped open, and he sat up quickly, his expression shifting from surprise to overwhelming relief.

“Flora,” he breathed, taking her hand in both of his. “You’re awake.”

She smiled faintly, her voice still weak but steady. “You stayed.”

“Of course I stayed,” he said, his tone fierce. “I’ll always stay.”

Winx & Specialists Dynamics that are so Precious to me

it makes sense that in the show, winx and their non-boyfriend specialists don’t interact much. but!! i’m very insane about codependent found families, and I want them all to love each other. so here’s my take on some tet-a-tet dynamics:

rare pairings:

Musa & Timmy: childhood frenemies. they used to go to the same middle school on Melody, and as type-A tweens do, had an intense, “you’re the only person I match myself to” kind of rivalry. they lost contact after Timmy moved away, chilled out considerably, reconnected in Alfea and had a wonderful banter-filled friendship since. because of how fast they slotted back into a friendship, some of their classmates genuinely thought they were siblings.

Tecna & Riven: got up from a rough patch. from “I dislike you but we both love Musa, so we have to be civil” to “you have more depths to you than I expected” to “now that I understand you, I can’t help but admire certain things about you” to “bitch, you are the only person who is as weird and clueless as I am, ARE YOU READY TO GO TO THE ARCADE AND ANNIHILATE KIDS FOR SHITS AND GIGGLES”

Flora & Brandon: little sister, older brother vibes. of similar temperaments and views, they enjoy spending time over a cup of tea — talking about everything and nothing. it’s therapeutic, almost.

(no one in the group knew that Brandon and Flo were good friends. once, when the two had to team up during a mission, Bloom couldn’t even finish saying: “it would be a good opportunity for you to get to know each ot-“, before the specialist-fairy duo were re-creating the most complicated and choreographed hand shake ever. jaws were on the floor.)

Aisha & Brandon: they are sporties, and they like doing sport things together! they don’t talk aside from exchanging brief encouragements and advice while out, preferring to spend their time in companionable silence. sorta like those dads who never talk to their buddies, but somehow have the strongest and longest bonds ever?

Helia & Bloom: artist besties. Bloom drags Helia out on picnics, where they practice observational drawing (and tiktok trends that Bloom desperately wants to reenact but none of the winx are good at arts); Helia responds by taking her out to see art museums in Magix. it’s a fun dynamic of Bloom being the bubbly gold retriever, and Helia being her black cat.

Tecna & Sky: they didn’t have much of a relationship until year 4. somehow, they both got really, intensely into weaponsmithing and built a joint workshop. they found that they enjoy working alongside each other and value each other’s insights. sky goes to tecna when he needs frank, un-sugarcoated advice, and tecna accompanies sky on hikes and other spirited adventures, for “bonding activities” (because he told her she doesn’t get out of her comfort zone enough). it’s a relationship of deep mutual respect.

Sky & Stella: childhood friends. they knew each other as children and enjoyed playing together (which is how Stella also knew Brandon pre-Red Fountaine). at least, until Stella was unofficially banned from Eraklyon because shenanigans, and they lost contact. they still jokingly call each other “My Lady” and “My Lord”.

Stella & Nabu. Both are flirty and extroverted people, who enjoy the spirit of showmanship. They have a friendly rivalry going of who can fluster the villain of the week the fastest.

canon bf-gf dynamics (dating in canon, open to interpretation otherwise):

Bloom x Sky: liked each other since the first meeting; bonded over being the friend group moms. (on unrelated note: bloom gentle parents her friends, while sky goes all exasperated cig mom on his team and repeats things like: “you better go to sleep right now, or so help me Dragon I will take away your Owl pilot privileges-“)

they are not the most outwardly affectionate couple of the winx, yet they are so wordlessly devoted to each other. sky will follow bloom to the ends of all dimensions, when she gets a calling from powers as mystical as she. bloom will always believe in him and see him as his own man, unlike the many who see him only as his father’s son. they were entwined by fate, long before one had met the other; yet, there’s the trust, the respect, the faith so strong — that could have only come from friendship forged and tested by fire.

Stella and Brandon: the hottest power couple; sole reason behind 60% of all student fairies/specialists/witches queer awakening.

they banter all. the. goddamn. time. these dorks are speaking a whole different language.

they are also most comfortable in each other’s company, being able to be their genuine, less polished selves. stella and brandon are both performers bred and born, playing the roles of a noble princess and a knight. it’s nice, to have a safe reprieve from all that acting.

Aisha and Nabu. their love was one that sneaked up on them. their distance, set by a discomfort at the idea of an arranged marriage, bridged as they transitioned from being reluctant comrades to friendly rivals to unwilling friends to best friends to “if someday the moon calls you by your name, don’t be surprised — because every night I tell her about you”

Tecna and Timmy: partners in crime, ride or die, sunny faith in each other — even when the other person doesn’t believe in themself. I have a whole post about them, go read that ;)

Flora and Helia: they are so. they are. they-

icons. the most romantic couple, the one that sets the standards, the one that gives their friends advice. they are extremely attentive to each other’s needs and tender with each other’s feelings.

flora can recite helia’s poems in her sleep, and trace his drawings with her eyes closed. helia brings mielle presents every time he stops by. flora has tea with helia’s dad every other tuesday; she keeps note of every time helia and saladin are supposed to meet up, to be able to whisk helia away after and distract him from his troubles. helia knows how to care of flora’s plants, and sends her lovingly assorted gift baskets semi-regularly.

Musa and Riven. their relationship is push and pull, is joy then sorrow.

it’s all in a drag of a cigarette, in the vortex of a starless night, in the hoarse laughter. “of all the people in the world, why did it have to be you?” she’ll say and smile.

“ I’m afraid we’re doomed, lover,” he’ll reply, faux-casually, and smile back. both of them will know it’s the truth.

their relationship was not built to last, not for the lack of love or try. maybe they were too similar — both headstrong, unbending, bleeding hearts. maybe they were just different enough not to understand their hurts. nevertheless, it was not built to last — but neither of them would ever bring to regret it. love prevails, no matter in what form in comes, or something like that.

How the couples from Winx would enjoy their halloween party:

Bloom & Sky as princess and prince would enjoy their night with their friends and distribute some candy

Stella & Brandon as mermaid and pirate would crack jokes and be the light of the party (Stella would make Brandon carry her)

Flora & Helia as Mickey and Minnie, they would be the mom and the dad of the party 🤣

Tecna & Timmy as a zombie and a heroine on an apocalypse! They would choose the movie the group would eventually watch at the end of the party

Aisha & Nabu as a cute witch and a handsome wizard, they would dance most of the part

Musa & Riven as red riding hood and wolf! they would play instruments and sing during the party

at the end of the party they would decide to watch a horror movie how each couple would react:

Skloom: Would try to pay attention but would get distracted waiting for the scary parts and cover their faces and snuggling at each other

Brella: Stella would still be glued to Brandon, both would fall for the jumpscares but would laugh right after

Florelia: Would pay attention to the plot and discuss about it after with everyone

Tecmy: Would totally pay more attention to the special effects than anything else and would discuss about it between themselves and eventually laugh about their own cute nerdiness

Rivusa: Would wait for the other get scared and laugh at their reaction affectionately

Aisha and Nabu: Would be the ones who enjoyed the movie the most and Nabu would comfort Aisha each time he notices she got scared
