Donāt want to be mean or anything but why are you giving so much things to Flora? Without even talking about her story and all, why is she the best/second best dancer when there is Aisha (even Stella or Musa dance in the show, Iām not counting season 8 in it because it sucks). And why is she the second best singer after Musa when she literally never sing in the cartoon and the only canon singers are Musa, Bloom and Stella?? Also her being the best fighter is so weird like in the show she was probably the less probable one for that (I know youāre doing a rewrite and changed things but Iām still pointing it out). Like Iām really not trying to sound rude or saying you shouldnāt do things the way you want to do, itās your opinion and everyone has the right to have their own. Iām just genuinely curious if you are doing that because she is your favorite?
Ummmā¦ Like- I get the question but sheās really not the best at anything? Only Potionology after that she may be the second or third best but like-
Aisha is the best dancer, sheās literally teaching both ballet and modern dance right, sheās the best. I gave Flora ballet cause she just gives me ballet vibes (I genuienly donāt remember ever seeing Musa or Stella dancingā¦) and then for a singer I lit just said Helia is the second best not Flora. Again, Flora just gives me soft but good voice vibes but no one would be near Musaās level. The ones I mentioned are all good in general but not near Musaās level. Maybe Helia comes a tad bit close but still.
I donāt remember ever seeing Stella sing in the show and kinda ignore Bloom singing out of biterness cause it shouldāve been Musa singing
Finally about the fighting, up to where i watched the series the girls were never seen physically fighting so I chose to make Flora the āfighterā due to her relationship with Riven and coming up with the idea of Riven teaching her to box/hand to hand on s2 as a way to deepen their friendship and make what they were teaching each other (Riven helped her a lot to stand her ground) almost literal.
I also made her the fighter cause I felt like it would be empowering to her character for her to be the first to learn to fight physically due to her previous history. Also also, while I have given Flora a most of the emphasis on that, I have mentioned the other girls training with the boys a bit (specifically I remember bringing it up with Musa and Bloom).
And like- they do have their own things? Aisha is the best dancer, Musa is the singer/artist, Flora hasnāt ever sung or written songs in the rewrite I just answered that off of vibes cause, in the rewrite Musa and Helia would be the only ones to actually realistically sing considering the plot (also Bloom due to me mentioning her being in her theater club, thatās why sheās in the list of good singers). Flora is the potionologist thatās why she works at a lab.
Stella has fashion. Tecna technology/engeniering more recently and Bloom has history, mythology and drawings, all 3 of those things are never touched by Flora and, whilst Iāve shown her fighting hand to hand and *small spoiler* will show her in s4 with a dagger (since in s3 I mentioned her taking basic dagger technique in RF with Riven) sheāll never be shown with a sword, bow, or phantoblade or any other tech usually reserved for the boys cause 1) it was never established and 2) it wouldnāt make sense for her character. ALSO S4 will be big for the girls fighting more physically, specifically Flora, Aisha and Bloom.
Another reason for her being the 3rd best singer is that Lynphea just gives me the vibe of a very artsy planet, I personally relate nature with what I would call āsoft artā like ballet, singing folk songs and stuff like that. I could totally see Flora singing smth like The Hanging Tree thatās the main reason
And yeah sheās absolutely my fave I donāt think there is a single way I could possibly deny that but likeā¦ I can see where youāre coming from but I genuienly donāt feel like I give her everything. I pay a lot of attention to her when it comes to artsy shit cause again- I relate nature (Lynphea) to art but like- I donāt give her too much?
Do i? I feel like I might but if I do like- itās not in an exagerate way, I do try very hard to give all the girls their own stuff and time in the spotlight but I am very aware of my bias towards Flora but I do not feel like itās blatantly obvious most of the time
#like sheās my fave but i donāt give her everything#The only thing i give her in excess is trauma#winx club#winx rewrite#winx#winx headcannon#winx fanfic#winx headcanons#winx flora

What if they moved the she-ra's release date bc a)vld s8 trailer will be released on next thursday and there's smth that would rub us the wrong way so netflix is releasing in a few days later a show that already has lgbt rep and badass women to calm a bit the storm or b)the trailer is being released 2 days after she-ra so the audience can go "oh man this doesn't look good... BUT WE HAVE SHE-RA NOW"(1/2)
Either way I donāt think this has anything to do with other franchises releases, netflix didnāt care when they released s6 the day of incredibles 2 premiere. Not saying that your theory is wrong, itās plausible, they may care now. But I think this has more to do with dw franchises and not others. They should have noticed that at least a half of vldās audience is moving on to she-ra so thatās why i think they schedule stuff in regards to what the audience wants to see. Makes sense? (2/2)
No. Sorry, but it doesnāt.Ā First, most of VLDās audience isnāt moving to She-Ra. Second, Tuesdays are not good days to premiere shows, especially when DreamWorks has never premiered a show on Tuesday before - only Fridays. Third, She-Ra doesnāt have much of an audience, actually.Ā
Below the cut - lovely graphics and research from @sol1056.Ā
Internet traffic regarding She-Ra over the last thirty days.Ā
Voltron is blue. TDP is red. Castlevania is green. You can see the uphill tick when it was released last week. And She-Ra? Yellow.Ā
Please take in account. This includes NYCC.Ā
Hereās another graphic to give you a better assessment of page views.Ā
She-Ra is green here. Itās getting its ass kicked. Sorry, but She-Ra isnāt the big draw that DW wants you to believe, and itās floundering in a time when it should be LOUD with hype. After all, VLD Season 1 was a HUGE win for DreamWorks.Ā
You know what? Letās go a bit farther back to prove my point -Ā
(Castlevania green, Voltron blue, She-Ra yellow, and The Dragon Prince red.)
The news of Castlevaniaās second season got as much buzz as the Voltron Season 7 premiere. You see where The Dragon Prince premiered.Ā
She-Raās first look? Still yellow - and still relatively quiet.Ā
Moving a release date is an attempt to make sure She-Ra is not lost in the FB2 hype and give its own day - or three - to hopefully shine - because itās not doing so just yet.Ā
Moreover, youāre putting a lot of faith in a show that hasnāt even proven itself yet, a show that DreamWorks literally just said they donāt believe will do well on a Friday. Even if itās not due to the FB2, DreamWorks still moved the release day to a Tuesday.Ā Ā
To clarify - moving up a release date now, less than two weeks out, is not good news. Itās notĀ ābecause fans wanted it.ā You know how I know?Ā
Because anyone who asked for Friday, November 16th off to binge-watch She-Ra just got screwed.Ā
Seriously.Ā
I asked for December 14th the day it was announced. I asked for Season 5 premiere date off the day it was announced, and I almost did not get it. It was a month out, and my boss had the same date off.Ā
Moving a date up three days, giving fans less than two-weeks notice, is terrible treatment to your fans, especially when the release date is a Tuesday. Anyone with a full-time job is going to have a hard time getting up on a Tuesday and then working the rest of the week.Ā
(And btw - Iām from the time of original She-Ra fans. I was two when it premiered. If not for the horrible story that Voltron became, Iād be head over heels for a new She-Ra show.)
Fridays are great for binge-watching, especially childrenās shows. In fact, DreamWorks doesn't premiere shows on Tuesdays - only Fridays - which tells you something in and of itself. She-Ra is different and from the numbers above, not in a good way.Ā
Two - or five - I havenāt heard anything about VLD Season 8 getting a new trailer next Thursday, so if you have - then your sources are better than mine.Ā
And finally, itās already been speculated because Voltron Season 6 was on the Incredibles 2 premiere date AND Season 8 is on the new Spider-Man premiere date, that DreamWorks is burying Voltron, especially since 3Below is premiering a week after Voltron Season 8.Ā
Any good production company looks at what is premiering and when, and makes their own release schedule accordingly. A company would be foolish not to because if one doesnāt, then it ends up dropping a series the same day a multi-billion-dollar franchise drops its highly-anticipated sequel.Ā
Say what you want about She-Ra, but itās not the Harry Potter franchise. Itās just not.Ā

also no one asked (ok well someone asked me like a week ago on curiouscat but) but here are my hopes n dreams for the downton abbey movie:
1) it will never happen but i want a romance storyline for thomas lol, the whole shebang: meet cute, random misunderstandings/obstacles, obstacle(s) is/are overcome, happy ending and a motherfucking KISS, honestly we have edith/bertie, mary/matthew, mary/henry, carson/hughes, andy/daisy, isobel/merton, anna/bates, all following this pattern and i WANT IT. i know itās different with a movie and he canāt get the episodes-long arcs those couples got, but they could pull smth off. i think if it happened to be jimmy or phillip that would be nice but obviously not gonna happen as neither ed or charlie are included in the cast lol, and also like i said since for a movie it would have to be a condensed plot itās probably for the best it wonāt be jimmy bec that storylineĀ would deserve much more nuance, sensitivity, care, and explanation than the limited screentime available in a single film could give
2) not to be a bitch but i want michael gregson to be alive sdfhdsiukhsdfiusdfkdsf like can you IMAGINE, jesus it would be so frustrating but so satisfying bec of course that would happen to edith lmaoooooooo also i want marigold to meet him??? idk i adore edith and bertie but i really liked michael. like picture edith and bertie and marigold sitting in their drawing room in their castle having tea and thereās a fire and itās cute and cozy and then their butler comes in likeĀ āthereās a man downstairs mālady, insisting on seeing youā and edith goingĀ ālet him in Jivesā (or whatever the butlers name is) and she looks at bertie and saysĀ āi wonder what on earth this is aboutā and the door opens and itās MICHAEL GREGSON and we see edithās shocked face and then it cuts to like, violet and isobel arguing about violetās cookās views on sheep farming or something
3) can tom branson be happy jesus christ like, his entire storyline has always revolved around other ppl, he always felt like a side character in his own plots ?????????? and then heās just a vehicle for maryās happiness or robertās success or downtonās issues for mary/robert/tom to solve, so rarely is it ever about HIM and HIS happiness, even with bunting that was about riling robert up so it was something for him and cora to argue about and so daisy could get an education. i just want him to get some attention i love one (1) irish socialist (bonus points if the movie opens with him burning the Abbey down while holding bundles of marxist literature)
4) mary and barrowās relationship in the movie should mirror robert and carsonās relationship throughout the series.... likewise george and barrow should mirror mary and carsonās...... like. carson isnāt butler anymore. and carson was In Strum Mental in the running of that household, not an episode goes by without robert or cora or mary or someone talking to carson, and barrow is butler now, his role, literally, needs to be bigger, and his relationship with the upstairs crew should be more clearly defined and featured. u canāt change my mind. also heās so fucking adorable with george and sybbie. slightly related: i want thomas to mention sybil, anna said herself he knew her better than any of the downstairs crew and esp bec heās close with sybilās daughter i want that MENTIONED. thomas being Soft and Fond ??? sign me tf up
5) i canāt stand carson or robert and if they both make it thru the movie alive ima be pissed. they function in the narrative as ties to the pre-wwi world and itās past time one or both of those misogynist fuckwads are dispensed with. like any time one of them is onscreen iām just Die Die Die Die DIe. i HATE
6) i really want scenes of george, sybbie, and marigold together. they are the next generation of crawleys and i want them to kind of be together, the 3 of them, as a group, the way edith, mary, and sybil were in the first season. we had The Crawley Sisters as a group, now itās time for The Crawley Cousins. i want all 3 of them to have their own personalities and teasing of each other the way mary edith sybil did. i know theyāre only children and the movie only takes place 2 yrs after the s6 finale so theyāre still very young, but itās enough to lay the groundwork and plant suggestions abt how the 3 of themās relationship will be. it would be adorable and satisyfing
7) now u all know i adore thomas and i want him to be happy and i really am thrilled heās developed and isnāt just the one-dimensional antagonist he was in season 1, iām happy heās allowed himself to become a bit softer and has a found family that he finally feels at home with. WITH THAT SAID........... there is next to no tension among the downstairs characters anymore. we need someone to come in, rustle some feathers, have hideous hair ringlets..... if youāve guessed Sarah OāBrien uāve guessed right. now listen i know sheās awful but i think it could be great. imagine her waltzing in and basically being like s1 thomas, just snarking at everything. i bet sheād be all saccharine and fake likeĀ āso thomas youāre butler now thatās sooooo nice!!! and look at the batesā baby, iām soooo happy for you!!!ā and no one believes her and sheās just sneaking around causing trouble. sheād probably get into it w baxter bec sheās so soft and nice, but when obrien tries to fuck w molesley or thomas baxter becomes this image:
i can also imagine obrien being really nasty with andy and daisy bec theyāre so young and cute and obrien.... isnāt, and barrow gets fed up and comes in likeĀ āSO SARAH, YOU DROPPED ANY SOAP LATELY?ā and she goes pale and shuts up after that idfghdfiuhdyf
8) i want richard carlisle to come back bec iain glen is a fox. no other reason
9) i want madeleine allsopp to come back bec after the shannara chronicles i miss poppy draytonās face on my screen. no other reason
10) omg i almost forgot, i want baby bates to be friendly with the upstairs children and i want baby bates to love thomas just like the other kids do, it would be great bec bates and thomas still hate each other but they would both love that kid and it would be super cute. iāve also always loved thomasā weird lil relationship w anna, like theyāre not FRIENDS but i feel like thereās potential between the 2 of them to be friends. thomas noticed first when anna was bruised after her attack and asked what happened, anna noticed when thomas was sick during the conversion therapy s5 plotline and kept asking him if he was ok and telling him to rest. them in the hallway together after sybil died. thomas sayingĀ āno annaās not an enemy. but sheās incorruptible so we have nothing in commonā to edna. so i feel since heās so good with kids and they seem to love him, it would make sense for the bates baby to be the same, and it would alter the bates/anna/thomas dynamic in a possibly interesting and satisfying way
11) I Want Anna Bates To Be Happy And Laugh And Smile And Also Have Her Hair Down. I Am Tired Of Watching Anna Bates Suffer. If Fellowes Hurts Any More Hair On Her Head I Will Burn ITV Studios Down Just Test Me Julian.

Can you do a meta for Zuko on his Uncle Iroh, and the most significant lessons / pieces of wisdom that he learned from him?
META Ā Ā āŖ ACCEPTING / @proditeurāā
ohh boyyyā¦ iām gonna have to do yet another rewatch to answer this to the fullest. i honestly donāt have the time to do that right now but i do want to answer this question since my muse for atla seems to be really strong these days. iām gonna start by splitting this into different sections because i feel like thereās A Lot i could say. i hope everything flows and yaāll can understand my ramblings lol
zuko & uncle irohās relationship
obviously when weāre introduced to the series, one of the first relationships we see is the one between zuko and iroh. u can tell right off the bat that they care about one another a lot, mostly u can tell from iroh more than zuko in the beginning until that changes later on. itās def one of the strongest relationships we see throughout the series. i donāt rmr if the series explained whyĀ iroh had left with zuko after his banishment like whether that was thru irohās own volition or if he was driven out by ozai as well. either way, we all know that iroh thinks of zuko as a son after his own died.
i think thatās because zuko and iroh share similarities and iroh sees that. iroh sees the potential zuko has. in the beginning, zuko is an angry individual. he gets mad easily. he gets upset easily. he gets frustrated. we do see other parts of his personality and eventually we do see him change and he becomes more like iroh in a way. hereās the thing, though. while i do believe that zuko learned a lot from his uncleā¦
iām going to argue that zuko learned a lot from everyone he ever interacted with as well. not saying that his relationship with his uncle isnāt important because, i mean, it IS. their relationship was introduced to us from the very beginning so of course itās important. the thing iām trying to get at is that although it was iroh who was there to guide zuko in a way on his journey, it was actually zuko who helped himself. iroh never rlly told zuko what to do with his life, it was zuko who figured it out on his own. it was zuko who realized his mistakes and learned from them and grew as a person.
zuko as an individual
iāve written this on my other blog and iāll say it again: zukoās redemption arc works because he was never truly a bad guy despite his mistakes with the gaang in s1-2. zuko is written as the initial villain but thatās only cos heās hunting the avatar who has been established as the protagonist of our series. he treats aang & co as his enemies BUT he treats other people just fine for the most part. and we see that from the very beginning like in the very first episode where he promises to leave the water tribe alone if aang goes with him or in a few episodes later where he foregoes chasing appa (+ aang) bc the most importantĀ task at hand is getting his ship and his crew out of the bad weather and into safety.Ā
the only reason heās chasing the avatar is bc in his mind thatās whatās gonna gain his fatherās approval. and zuko in the first 2 seasons wants nothing more than his fatherās love & acceptance & approval esp since his mother is no longer in the picture. and, you know, iām sure zuko knows from an early age that his father isnāt the best person and nor is he the best parent butā¦ all that is put aside simply bc of the fact that ozai is his father. they are blood related. and ppl can pretend like that doesnāt matter but when youāre young, when thatās all you have, it fucking matters. i canāt explain it well atm but children want the love & acceptance & approval from their parents. itās normal. toph is another example of this, she wants those things but doesnāt have them. their situations in a way are similar yet manifests in different outcomes.
zukoās drive to find the avatar and take him to the fire nation is only because of his desire for his fatherās approval. but the thing is that zuko was always torn between his allegiance to his father and, idk, his allegiance to be himself. zuko is not like ozai or sozin or azulon. he isnāt like azula either. he doesnāt rlly share the same ideals they do in regards to the fire nation being #1 in the world or superior to other nations or however u wanna describe it. even if he didnāt get banished, i rlly donāt believe heād turn into the type of person the previous generations of firelords were. i think ozai saw this in zuko and thatās why he favored azula over him. it was azula who possessed the traits ozai thought was important, not zuko. but what ozai considers weakness in zuko turns out to be his greatest strengths.
underneath all that anger in the beginning, zuko was alwaysā¦ kind in his own ways. and he learns to be open to change and growth. in season 2 when we see him free appa from underground and throw away his blue spirit mask, itās supposed to symbolize this awakening/change in him. but in the end of season 2, he chooses to side with azula again because like iāve said before his desire for his fatherās approval is greater than his desire forā¦ idkā¦ whatever else. heās still confused. as much as i wanted zuko to join the gaang earlier, it wasnāt time for him to. we had to wait until literally halfway thru book 3 to see that and it was a lil annoying cos i would have loved to see him join earlier so they could have all had more interactions but!!!!!! i truly donāt believe that zuko throwing away the blue spirit mask was enough, hence the betrayal at the end of s2. someone could be there to guide you or influence you but ultimately your decisions in life are your own.Ā
lessons zuko has learned on his journeyĀ
a) episode 2x09 - bitter work
thereās a scene where iroh is explaining all four elements to zuko and how each element contributes to different nationsā idk personalities or culture or whatever. and i always thought that scene was beautiful bc iroh isnāt insulting other nations, heās describing their strengths. and then iroh says:Ā
āit is important to draw wisdom from many different places. if you take it from only one place, it becomes rigid and stale. understand othersāthe other elementsāand the other nations will help you become whole.ā
like i honestly think zuko kinda already knew that but it was never worded to him that way. we see him also learn it on his own when he parts ways with his uncle and heās off traveling on his own. zuko has also traveled the world for years after his banishment. thereās no way heās out there thinking the fire nationās beliefs are the only ones that matter. heās learned a lot from his travels imo. about himself and about others.Ā
this is also the episode where iroh teaches zuko how to redirect lightning so, yanno, thereās that. in one of the earlier episodes, iroh reminds zuko about the breath and how that could save his life in the cold and also another time where he instructs zuko to break zhaoās root during a duel or whatever. so def iroh not only offers advice/wisdom thru words but also thru teaching zuko firebending.
b) episode 2x17 - lake laogai
imo this episode was Wild to me mostly cos of the confrontation between zuko and his uncle. zukoās still thinking of capturing the avatar even though at this point he and iroh are fire nation fugitives and on the wanted list. zuko is still confused and torn between being true to himself and being the son his father wants him to be. itās irohās words that honestly hit a lil too close to home for me too lmao. zuko says smth about how he knows his destiny and iroh says:
āis it your own destiny or is it a destiny someone else has tried to force on you? it is time for you to look inward and begin asking yourself the big questions: WHO are you and what do YOUĀ want?ā
like iāve said before, zuko isnāt thinking about what he wants. or maybe he has but itās not rlly a priority for him. his priority is still pleasing his father and the only way he knows how is to capture aang. he thinks thatās whatās gonna make him happy butā¦
c) episode 3x06 - the avatar and the firelord
obviously zuko isnāt happy. at this point heās returned to the fire nation and finally has what heās wanted for years: ozaiās approval. iām not gonna say love cos i donāt believe for one second that ozai loved his son lmfao! and nor did he love azula but thatās another story for another day. anyways, zuko thoughtĀ thatĀ ākillingā the avatar would make him happy and being back home would make him happy but uh. heās changed over the years. heās still confused about what he wants vs what his father wants.Ā
itās hard for people to break away from their families, man. it rlly truly is. we as the audience know that thatās what zuko has to do but honestlyyy how many of us irl are kind of in similar positions???? itās hard to breakaway from family (the ppl who r supposed to support u) when you donāt have other strong connections and lbr zuko doesnāt. he had his uncle and he fucked it up. but anyway this entire episode was WILD and i loved every moment of it. it goes thru the story of avatar roku and his friend sozin. but the plot twist is that roku is zukoās great grandfather which, tbh, i was not expecting at all LMFAO. maybe it was obvious to every1 else but, man, was i in shock lol.Ā
the lesson in this episode is that everyone is capable of being good or evil (as aang learns) but the other lesson is that this is kind of what finally pushes zuko to change. i mean he was never truly evil as weāve seen in the past and heās made bad decisions but itās this moment that drives him to come to the goddamn epiphany that, no, he isnāt happy in the fire nation.Ā
d) episodes 3x10 & 3x11 - the day of black sun
zuko isnāt happy in the fire nation.his father needs to be stopped cos what heās doing is wrong. and itās a big fckn risk to defy the firelord and leave the comfort of your home behindā¦ like what if the avatar & co donāt accept zuko into the group? itās a risk but zuko knows what he has to do and has probably known it for a long time. itās hard to BREAK AWAY BUT ZUKO FINALLY DID IT. and you know what!!!!!! when zuko stood up to his father and told ozai that now itās his (ozaiās) turn to listen to zukoā¦ā¦ā¦ it was literally the BEST thing ever lmfao. hereās a part of what zuko says:
āiāve come to an even more important decision. iām going to join the avatar and iām going to help him defeat you.ā
zuko saysĀ āIāVE come to the decisionā and i think thatās important cos he came to the decision on his own. like ya his uncle was there for him but honestly likeā¦ no one told him to do any of that!!!!! underneath that anger, this is who he is: a kind, compassionate person????? now i donāt even know what iām trying to get at anymore but i guess just the way he saysĀ ābut iāveĀ come to an even more important decisionā just gets to me like. itās important that he made his own choice and wasnāt coerced into it bc that makes his choices more real and genuine. if zuko wasnāt a good person underneath all that anger and bitterness then would he have done this? no, lol. the audience loves zukoās redemption arc because he never truly bad on the inside, he made mistakes, realized them, made the active decision to do better and be better for others, and does that continuously thru s3 and we can assume after the series ends as well. zuko in s3 isnāt the zuko in s1 and we SEE that and thatās what we love abt his arc.
e) tea
isnāt zuko seen serving tea to every1 in the finale at the very end. like iām sure iroh taught him how to brew the right cup of tea lmfao!!!!! idk much about diff types of tea but uh thereās diff temperatures u heat the water and how long u steep it and idk guess itās an art huh
#wan shi tong's library ( meta )#answered: ooc#proditeur#mannn this turned out to be way longer than i expected lol
