King's Tide

Dance like nobody's watching

Aw, they're getting along!

Good morning, I had a dream where Kyuji, Otohiko, Toga and Hazu were kidnapped by Ayano. 💃👍

I can't believe people are throwing a tantrum over a wholesome, adorable ad.

I've seen a lot of people fatshame others on social media tbh (especially on TikTok and YouTube). It's a sad reality tbh.

people on tiktok get soooo fucking mad if a fat woman is complimented in the comments section of her vid. like taking PERSONAL personal offense to it. why. why are you literally offended by someone not getting bullied. kill yourself

you all talk about the rivals, ayano, and taro. the blandest fucking characters with nothing going for them. and here i am. wanting more lore on the side characters. you all want to simp for oka when she’s just basic shy goth gf while ive been stunned, shot at, on my fucking knees begging for content on the other clubs that have 0 relation to the other rivals and especially toga like a dog. i see how it is.

Stan pasta for clear skin!

"I would have to please him" I can't-

went scrolling in r/yandere_simulator until i found this gem

im cryign

Ummmmmm

hcs about classes at alfea?

Hard question fnskksen thank you tho bc it's really fun to think about it (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

Idk if I wanna go full chollage with Alfea, but personally I love chollage!Alfea so I just might

Alfea has two types of classes. Core and specialized. The core classes are basic magic control classes that every fairy needs to compete, and then the specialized classes are in line with a fairy's magical major

Ooo you know how I can't decide if Fairy groups should be called courts or circles? Fairy groups are called circles, fairy majors are called courts? Like a reference to the way the Seelie and Unseelie court practiced different magic

The specializations would probably be based on type of magic

Magic types:

Offence* magic (external controlled magic that breaks/destroys things on impact: most attacking spells): In Essence, magic you can't touch without getting hurt. Like fire balls and such

Defensive* magic (external controlled magic that doesn't destroy things on impact: most defensive spells and domestic spells): Magic you can touch without getting hurt. Think Flora's vine spells

Enchantment* magic (controlled internal magic/magic that works internally: breaking curses, reviving dead planets, restoring magic, bonding, mind control): Magic you can't touch at all. Essentially all special/strategic spells

*I hate these names with a passion and I need a better naming system

Most faires go into Enchantment, then Defensive, and last Offensive. Offensive fairy magic being quite rare

The jobs you would get are like

Enchantment: Imbuing stones or jewelry with a temporary amount of magic is one of the more basic jobs, construction with telekinesis, fusing important broken things together, breaking curses, healing, ect is usually the domain of Enchantment magic. It's mostly domestic work. Just imagine all the basic domestic things the girls could do with their magic. Bloom imbuing a fire agate with the ability to keep people warm, Stella using her sun and moon abilities to give someone enegry or peace of mind, Aisha using her domain over liquids to make sea water drinkable, Tecna instantly diagnosing a problem with a piece of tech, Flora making crops grow at a exponential rate, domestic magic. This is what most faries do, and it makes life so much easier in the magical dimension. Magic users are actually pretty rare, and the non magical are in the majority, so these cushy jobs get a pretty penny. Not as much as something more intensive, but still a pretty penny. This isn't the only thing they do. For example, Musa's music magic gives her the ability to send out a effect over a large area. So faries like Musa often get employed working with specialists, boosting them with magic.

Defensive: This is the more solid stuff. Think instead of Flora making plants grow faster, she just makes the plants. This is often seen as more work compared to their enchantment counterparts, and less work then offensive counterparts. Which isn't true, it really depends on the type of magic being done and the situation it's being done in. Flora could summon a forest, Stella could make magical lighting for an event, Aisha could control a wave to protect a costal town, stuff like this. Compared to the domestic stuff you could do with magic, this is the practical stuff

Offensive: essentially working as the big guns for any force. Like a monster that the specialists can't take, an offensive Fariy would beat it into the ground, and the guys would take it away. Getting rid of big ass threats that require a powerful touch is the domain of any magic user that does combat. Though that's not all they do. For example, a fire fairy could use these skills to become a magic welder for something huge, or hard to get to. These faries are often guardian fairies, along with defensive faries. This is the least common type of magic, and usually the most looked down on by other magic users. It's seen as a garish use of magic lol, and beneath a fairy to get her hands properly dirty

So at Alfea, a fairy picks a track, and learns how to do most things within their powers in the area they've chosen

Also, in magic schools there's ALWAYS a minor. You literally can't graduate without one. All magic is interconnect. Most spells require at least skills in two areas, and to be a full fledged fairy you need a acceptable amount of skill in all areas. So the core classes are there to get you up to snuff in all areas, before you pick one as your major and one as your minor. The most common set up is, unsurprisingly, Enchantment Defensive and only the core of Offensive

This is because of you never practice Offensive magic you'll accidentally harm someone, never practice Enchantment you magic accidentally fuse two objects and be unable to separate them, stuff like this. All faries need to know the basics

Bonus, the specialization of some faries:

The Winx: most of them are in the combat tract by the end to their time at Alfea

Bloom: Offensive Defensive then Enchantment (she kinda sucks at pure enchantment magic bc she cant see it, pretty good at mixing it with other kinds of magic), Stella: Offensive Enchantment then Defensive (she's not all that bad at barriers and shields, but aside from that any solid magic is out of her domain), Flora: Enchantment Defensive then Offensive (she's kinda terrible at pure offensive magic, she normally has to combine it with defensive magic), Tecna: Defensive Enchantment then Offensive (she's not exactly bad at offensive magic, but aside from shooting someone with electricity she doesn't have many options), Musa: Enchantment Offensive then Defensive (sound magic and Defensive magic doesn't get along naturally to the whole touching part, leaving Musa with the worst defense in the club, but she has managed to get enough control for good offensive spells...aoe damage is real and she's fighting an up hill battle over here), Aisha: Defensive Offensive then Enchantment (Morphix is inherently defensive magic sooo, much like Bloom magic she can't see/touch it hard for her), Nabu: Enchantment Offensive then Defensive (I don't really remember him doing any more like solid spells??? He just likes the other two more lol), Diaspro: Enchantment Defensive then Offensive (this was the track she was required to take, she doesn't know what she'd pick if she could chose), Chimera: she probably ends up doing the Offensive bc she wants to be like Stella but she's too young to decide yet (she ends with Enchantment and Offensive as her top two as well), Daphne: Offensive Enchantment then Defensive (Daphne is a attack is the best defense type of person, much like Stella lol), Marion: Enchantment Offensive than Defensive (lady turned herself into a sword), Galatea: Enchantment Defensive than Offensive (G is really eccentric, but like I mentioned with Musa it's hard to make sound magic work with the other two tracks), Nova: Enchantment Defensive then Offensive (Nova is sickly, and this track requires the least moving)

Teachers and their classes:

Faragonda doesn't teach any classes, but some times she substitutes for higher level classes of all types. Her passion is actually Enchantment magic, but she's obviously the best at offensive magic

Griselda is actually just the head of discipline and the vice principal. She's technically not supposed to teach classes, it's not in her job description, but like this women wouldn't know an overzealous workload if it punched her in the face. Griselda is the head of the defensive and Offensive tracts, with a heavy leaning on combat magic. Girselda is the one who actually maintains the barriers around Alfea, her specialization is actually in Defensive and Enchantment me thinks but she went into a combative roll as working fairy where she learned much more about offensive magic. She doesn't like using it much herself, but she understands it very well and is very capable of teaching it. As not many faries take a combat track in general, shes the main teacher for all the high level classes in this area. Despite being good at enchantment magic, she kidna sucks at teaching it. Which isn't really her fault, enchantment magic requires a different touch than Griselda has. Her classes are the ones actually deal with combat

Professor Palladium teaches enchantment magic and defensive magic in that order, which is unsurprisingly also his specialization. He teaches medium level classes, with a slight leaning of passive magic to help students get ready for DuFour's class. His brand of enchantment magic is the type that requires forming a small connection to whatever you want to effect (ie hearing the voice of nature), and magic that inherently different for every student. So like Aisha could unlock something by making a morphix key, Musa could use soundwave to move the lock mechanism. This requires a lot more attention on each student

Professor Wizgiz teaches lowest level classes. He teaches the core classes essentially. This is different because, in enchantment's case, changing hair color and telekinesis can be done the exact same way by every fairy. Introductory courses here. He likes this a lot, mostly bc it's fun to freak out freshmen

Professor DuFour is the resident witch teacher and teaches the more traditionally witch things that are also apart of fairy magic. Using focuses (aka items to focus magic, like stones or wands/staffs), she also teaches runic magic (magic connected to symbols that have a set meaning/power. Certain symbols ended up magically connected to certain things due to being used so often, and these are nessicary to remember), Potions, and complicated spells that require a lot of set up or a specific action (Musa's s2 rain dance is one of these, it's also a runic spell, that's why those symbols where there lol). She's super elegant, and likes to lightly mess with students who buy into stereotypes too much

Professor Avalon is a high level core teacher and basically teaches practical application of magic. Magic requires a lot of creativity to get to work. For example Stella and Bloom being asked to make a cold spell. They think they would be unable to do it but they can. Bloom can suck all the heat out of a room, and Stella can use a moon spell to make the area colder. But faires don't instantly learn to think like this. So Avalon's whole thing is Magic-philosophy to get students thinking (with portals) creatively to use the full extent of their magic. He also builds on DuFour's more complicated magic, teaching students how to use ruins in more snappy fairy magic like ways (compared to the slower way witches use them, and you have to learn first)

Ok but some of these teachers original classes are um....DuFour originally taught etiquette, and poetic and literary formation of spells. Professor Pikass teaches self-confidence and public image at Alfea, and the ballet teacher. Bro honestly what??? Like I know this school has a lot of Royalty but PUBLIC IMAGINE AND ETIQUETTE??? LITERALLY WHAT??? I do not see it ☺️

Anyways I want Alfea to be a bigger school?? Alfea is like fucking tiny in the og version. I'm thinking like a little more than 5,000. A smaller chollage for sure, but just large enough that Alfea can give more faries a shot in the best school in the dimension. CT and RF are the same size as Alfea btw. Maybe 5,500? Or something?? Barely making it a medium sized chollage?? Yeah, so there's probably a fuck ton of teachers running around that the Winx never meet or see every now and then
