1, 3, and 26 for the character ask game for Darcy!
thank you <33
My first impression of them
As I said in the ask about Icy, I don't remember my first impressions on Winx or the characters. It's like it has always been a part of my life. What I can remember ist, that I shipped Darcy and Riven very early. Already as a kid and before I kinew what shipping actually is. They were the couple I found the most interesting and I loved them interact. In Germany we had a children anime magazine which didn't only feature animes but also shows like Winx. In one issue one could vote for one's favorite anime couple and I filled in the form with Darcy and Riven. But I never sent it in.
3. A song that reminds me of them
And again I have to go with driven because the song that immediately comes to my mind is Getaway Car by Taylor Swift. So iconic. If I had to pick one only for Darcy, I'd again look back at my childhood and the early years of YouTube which had at least 2 videos with Darcy and the song Angel of Darkness.
I know a lot songs that give me Darcy vibes though. Here is another example: Pretty in the Dark by Ellise
Relax
It’s only magic
I want
All the power and the pain
I’ll love you in the flames
Just tell me that you're mine
I’ll be your beautiful obsession
Center of attention
That’s just what I like
Run through your veins
Got your heart to keep
Calling my name
Get down on your knees
I’m cold as ice
Get what I like
Won’t stay till morning cause I am the night
26. When do you think they were being "themselves" the most.
I think this is whenever her true self shows through the illusion she gives of herself. Darcy is seen as a shady and devious character whose power's sources are illusions and the psyche of her victims. She knows how to dissimulate her true intentions and she comes off like the calculating queen of darkness. But sometimes her mask slips and we see that she is a vulnerable character who hides her fears behind her powers. This can be seen for example in 1x8 where Darcy shows concern for Riven who is about to have an accident because of that helmet. It can also be seen in 2x11 where she tries to make Icy put the feather on the scale because she is afraid, it might be the wrong item and doesn't want to be punished by the scale's power. (Icy looked through this of course because she knows her sister) Another scene is in the 2nd movie when the Trix take over the Tree of Life and Darcy is shown to be unsure and a little afraid of what might happen to them. She plays cool but is actually a careful overthinker and these scenes are only some examples.

After the initial hugs and greetings from the lathered-up welcoming committee, including yours truly, putting on my most convincing friendly face, the hunky actor asked if he and I could step outside so he could have a moment alone with me. He [Patrick] took my hand and led me down the hall a little ways. Once out of earshot, we turned to face each other,
Patrick scanned me in my cut-off black tights, dance briefs rolled down, a sports bra and vintage blue satin high heels, and said, “Whoa. You clean up good, girl.”
“This is a great part for you. Congratulations.”
“I know, right? It’s crazy.” This was softening me up. It felt good to be able to share my news with someone I knew.
“I know, you’re probably thinkin’, ‘Aw, no, not this idiot again.’ ” Then his eyes started to well up. Real tears. And with the most earnest delivery imaginable, said, “You know I’ve always loved you.” He stared into my eyes. “And I’ve been really workin’ on gettin’ my shit together. So, if I get the chance, I swear I’m gonna make it up to you. You will not be sorry.”
I said, “Uh-huh.”
He smiled and was working hard on getting me to smile back. “C’mon, you know if we did this together, we’d kill it.”
There was no question that our bodies liked each other, in spite of what my head was saying. There has never been anyone with Patrick’s combination of grace, brawn, sensitivity, and fearless, reckless gusto. - From Out of the Corner: A Memoir by Jennifer Grey (2022)

for the folks who wanted all of Susan Twist's casting appearances to date, here you go:
Mrs Merridew in Wild Blue Yonder
Mystery Woman in The Church on Ruby Road (uncredited)
Comms Officer Gina Scalzi in Space Babies (uncredited)
Tea Lady in The Devil's Chord
Ambulance in Boom
i don't believe Russell for a second, that they just 'ran out of actors' 😂 i am convinced that this mystery woman played by Susan Twist is some sort of embodiment of Story, the way Maestro is the embodiment of Music. the way she keeps playing supporting parts, the reference to Margaret Lockwood in The Wicked Lady...
there's a few theories percolating right now, but i think she's a large part of the reason why the fourth wall keeps being broken. it's strange, how intrusive her presence is...it seems that with each episode, her importance to the plot grows stronger. she's gone from small speaking roles which don't impact the story, to directly interacting with the Doctor and Ruby, to being capable of killing characters in the central plot...
is it possible that Susan Twist's character is attempting to take over the narrative and become the main character of Doctor Who herself? 👀

paige lets her girl ride any part of her whenever she wants. abs, fingers, thigh, face, maybe it’s just bc in my head paige is lazy but it just makes sense idk. and she’d just watch all smug and whisper dirty ( and i mean NASTY) shit in her ear

I still haven’t been able to pick up a copy of the new PPG comic but you know what? I saw this panel online from it and…
…if this is like a Super Zeroes-esque comic where the girls are envisioning alternate versions of themselves with different destinies and if Blossom wants to be a detective GOD! BLESS! whoever wrote this ‘cause it’s perfect.
Bubbles as a bunny and Buttercup as a wrestler are also both perfect but that goes without saying. 🙏
