They’re very “I love her for her, and she loves me for me.”
✨Early 2000s girl friendships being very lowkey but also heartfelt drama between besties is also very cunt✨
Or why Fate is trash
One aspect of Winx club I always loved growing up was the friendship between the girls. They all love each other, despite their very different personnalities and having some rough times.
While I could write an essay about almost every duo in Winx club, I do think that Stella and Bloom are the most interesting to analyze.
Even though they are part of a friend group, the show doesn't try to hide the fact that Stella and Bloom are each other best friend, they even say so themselves.
This friendship is truly groundbreaking when we think about it, for one simple reason: Bloom and Stella's archetypes usually hates each other when depicted together in media.
Hear me out.
Stella is the girly girl, the mean girl, the popular girl with a big mouth who can appear shallow. Plus, she's blond. She bases a big portion of her self-worth in her apperance. Basically, she's the Regina George of Winx Club.
Bloom, she's not like the other girls. There's nothing wrong with her, she's attractive and a sweetheart, yet she attracts attention for being different (in the show there are a few reasons for this, first she's from Earth and she's also the keeper of the Dragon Flame, making her a god-like existence in the story). She has messy hair, dresses in jeans, doesn't really care about her apperance... She's a fish out of water type of character, the character everyone can and wants to relate to. She's the Cady of Winx Club.
These two were designed to hate each other.
Taking into account Stella's nature, we expect her to hate Bloom out of sheer jealousy. Bloom doesn't try and gets all the attention, she's the new girl who turns out to be the one girl more powerful than her, she's also a princess. We could say that everything Stella can do, Bloom can do better.
And yet...
Stella would kill a bitch for Bloom. Never in the show does she display any sort of ill feelings toward Bloom, on the contrary, she spends her time trying to get her to be more confident in herself and her abilities. She's sweet with her and does her best to uplift her. I can say with confidence that Stella is the one person in the show who loves Bloom the most (tied with Daphne), like Sky doesn't hold A CANDLE to her.
When Bloom leaves on missions by herself she's worried sick, she's always clinging to her, teasing her, looking out for her. She's always the one there for Bloom when things get hard (when the Trix steal her powers, when Sky gets engaged to Diaspro, when she thinks of her family...)
And Bloom, she just loves Stella. She's the reason her dream became reality (it was her meeting with her which caused her to learn her true nature), and Stella took her under her wing to make it easier for her to fit into this new world. She saw from the beggining that Stella was willing to lie for her, to fight for her and she couldn't help but love her, even if she had a big mouth and quite the personnality. Stella brought lightness and laughter into her world, she was her anchor.
For real, just look at her reaction when Stella throws herself from the cliff in season two. She spends the episodes after that obsessing over finding and saving Stella.
These two can't live without each other even though one is the 'your typical mean girl' and the other is 'not like the other girls'.
Heck, everytime the villains freaking spy on the Winx these two are all over each other.
I think the heart of their friendship is their first meeting. Stella was what Bloom had dreamed of all her life: she was a real fairy, the living personnification of her dreams. She's the one who made her dream a reality. As for Stella, she was saved by a human who risked her life and stood up for her even though she didn't stand any chance and didn't know her. Bloom was just lucky she turned out to be a fairy. Bloom then took her to her house and took care of her, without expecting anything in return, which caused them to bond instantly.
That relationship was freaking transgressive for the time, and Fate's writers deserve jail for what they did to their friendship. Bloom and Stella fighting over a boy and Stella turning into the typical insecure and jealous mean girl? Hell no.
Look at these queens 🥹
The room was warm and bright as Rosa’s eyes fluttered open. She couldn’t remember getting there, nor did she remember fainting on the steps of the cloud palace before making it to the door.
“There you are moon beam; you gave mother quite a scare.” Hikaru chuckles, “Did you enjoy the nap?” He teased.
Rosa felt heat travel up her neck, blooming across her cheeks and nose as a nervous smile crept across her lips. “W-well…i-i didn’t exactly…..I…”
He arched a brow. “You didn’t…..what?” He leans closer, draping an arm over her waist and propping her up more with his leg, “I’m listening.”
The young nymph couldn’t believe this was happening, clutching her hands to her chest and the blush on her cheeks grew deeper. “I slept well Hikaru….thank you.” Her eyes still locked on his.
The cozy, warm glow of the room surrounded them, lost in each others eyes. Because surely, nothing else could matter in these sweet, tender moments.
—————————
ANYWHOOOOOOS Enough of that sappy love story nonsense (jkjkjk, I actually love these two. They are cross dimensionally intertwined and these are their base base forms lol) I love this sketch sm it’s so cute
Anyways this is Rosa and Hikaru(also known as Reese and Micha in other world/their human forms) ive been working on these two for years and they give the best brainworms second to Frigga
Hikaru is a sun god. Living in the CloudPalace with his mother and 13 sisters; he’s the youngest and often treated with kid gloves to an unhealthy degree. He’s set to take the throne after 1000 years or when he’s finished his JourneyTM, whichever happens first.
Rosa is a nymph(or is she?) born from pond under a wisteria tree, the night of a Full Moon to a poor farmer. The only child of the elderly man, she’s treasured dearly; though she knows soon she’ll be leaving due to her approaching 19th birthday/ “Wedding Party”.
This picture is a few months before her leaving, having stumbled upon a Golden Hare and following him the first time; the young god revealed himself and they started a friendship in secret. Rosa was shocked to win the companionship of a god, while Hikaru(Hiki for short) enjoyed the quirks of humans he’d never seen before.
These two were originally designed(redesigns but you know what I mean) by @aj-thegreatest and given to me(aka I ran her pockets with that blickysticky ❤️❤️) but she’s free to work with them as well AKAMAKETHEMGAYASF
Rosa and Hiki/all versions of them belong to me @princekaiofstars / @princekaistar
If you wanna draw them or know about em, feel free to ask lol.
So just to gauge opinions. (I’m debating on doing sets for the picked theme, I already have one in mind but I want at least 3 to just wrack my brain a bit more lol)
I do wanna say, if/when I post these, they’ll be linked back to my Bluesky. (Which is strictly NSFW.
“I’ve always ruled the world Habibi, I just let you borrow it for a while”
This is hella old atp, and I might finish it now that I got time (yall remind me to finish this at least by the end of the week. This was lowkey a banger drawing; and I got one of Visas #visasmention too?)
And I got a roster of cute/creepy and weird crackship things on deck to….expand my account >;3
Before I forget too, besteta is @onelastfic ‘s character. Def check her out
More Reese(Rosa) and Hiki(Micha) from the past 2ish years??? Ft. Piccrews and one of my sketches
In their human lives; Reese and Micha are neighbours/childhood best friends with Micha being the more adventurous joy to Reese’s homebody sorrow. Micha tends to drop by to cook/clean and help Reese with her classes and general life things, while she tries in secret to improve to not weigh him down.
Reese does idolise and obsess care for Micha hoping to one day confess her longstanding feelings(hopefully one day right….?). Micha knows, and has known since their high school days but hasn’t spoken to see what will come of their unspoken yet blossoming feelings.
There’s so much lore between their natural selves and their human counterparts I gotta start plotting this. I’ll call their story When the Sun Touched the Moon
Caught the WTSTTM brainwormsTM again so I doodled a bunch of stuff in rapid succession lol. I’ll probably finish em soon, but here’s some info for yall BEFORE I start body slamming out designs for these 13 gals
Pic One: REVAMPS WOO! Since I’m revamping old characters/designs I enjoy; I started with this pair. They don’t have names yet(place holders-Willow and Fox), and they’re secondary characters that are still pretty important.
Willow is a Wood Nymph (how cute), that resides outside of Rosa’s home. Reserved and stoic, he’s never one to make conversation with the other fae, spirits or humans. Tending to the farmlands from sunset to dawn in his human form and returning to his tree form(a weeping willow) before being spotted.
Fox is a….well, Fox Spirit lol. He resides in the Sun Palace with Hikaru and his family along with many other spirits and fae. Most of his time is spent travelling between the two planes and being mischievous with Hikaru when able; though he’s taken a liking to Willow.
~~~~
Pic Two: Rosa encountering Fox during th- [THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION HAS BEEN REDACTED, THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION HAS BEEN REDACTED THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION HAS BEEN REDACTED] so yeah! That’s gonna be fun to explore and write out more
~~~~~~
Pic Three: The Mother Herself! She (also)doesn’t have a name yet, but she is Hikaru’s beloved mother and the current Sun of their world. Caring, kind, and stern when needed; but always affectionate and supportive of her daughters and son.
~~~~~
DAUGHTERS COMING SOON!!! I’ll probably add them onto this post as they come in. And the ask blog, is also in the works. I’m gonna design a key and everything; ah so much excitement
All of the art/designs and story belong to me @princekaiofstars / @princekaistar
Anyways, yall can also ask questions here about the characters if you want.
Stares in abject curiosity and tears in my eyes, bro these kids are going through it and I want them to be okay. ;w; y’all check them all out
But also the urge to design the PhBe symbiont that’s being used as a magical element to power a dying magical universe.
"Drink this. It's not exactly poison. But it's not exactly tea, either."
A SHWIPPITY WIP⚠️. A WIP that I’ll probably post the finished piece of in the morning✨
Ngl, am I a furry? Yes. Did this have to be done or I would’ve imploded? Also yes. I just needed more Egyptian elements tbh, that’s all. Also also yes this is more fanart, leave me alone lol
Also also also, dontcomeinherestartingtrouble.iwillfightallofyoutothebitterend. Basteta is low(high)key one of my favs and I think she deserves better. She’s should be MainLead1butthatsjustmeeew ANYWAYS!
Enjoy the WIP so far💛🖤
Basteta belongs to @onelastfic
Art by meeee @princekaistar / @princekaiofstars

I like to think Hera and her mom look similar so imma try and pull that off
Hey Anon, just a gentle reminder-fan fiction isn't about fitting into strict boxes or having every reference explained like it's a thesis paper. It's about creativity, fun, and letting your imagination run wild. If someone wants to throw characters from different verses into one story, more power to them. That's the beauty of fanfiction-you don't have to make it make sense. It's not about rules, it's about passion. Let people write what makes them happy.
Whether it's a full-on crossover, self-indulgent AU, or a chaotic mashup of verses-there's room for all of it. We're here to build, share, and enjoy, not gatekeep. We can just support the creativity behind it.
That's what Tumblr's always been best at. A place for weird, wild, and wonderful ideas to grow. Let's keep it that way. Support each other. That's how we all thrive.
Yeah; this is a lot more of what I’m going for than a set down, full force plot fanfic. Just something fun and different.
If it ends up plot heavy then aye, but I want this to just be a collection of 4 fun adventures the girls go on for now
are you a vegatarian? im curious
Alt account to @A quarter in life ENBY(Any pronouns are fine) Probably just gonna be a lot of my own works/side content(PrettyBois and PrettyGals)OCxOC, OCxCanon, and insertxCanon I like it I’m a mess lol
