    Summary

    A rewrite of Winx season 1.
    A darker and more mature look at the events of the first season with a few changes to the characters and story to make it a little more realistic and intense.

    Bloom has anger issues, Stella is insecure deep down, Musa is a closed off goth, Tecna struggles with anxiety everyday and Flora has some trauma she needs to work through.

    Deeper look at the Specialists and their friendship.

    Summary

    Everyone dreams of being different—smarter, richer, happier. But for Yuri, after what he bitterly calls the Hellish Year, those desires weigh heavier than ever. He’s desperate to shake off his current life, eager to break free from himself, like a fucking larva emerging from its cocoon to spread its own wings.
    As he turns twenty-seven, with his career hanging by a thread and his relationship falling apart, he stumbles upon an unexpected chance for a new beginning. The thing is, while he’s quick to make tough decisions, dealing with their consequences is a whole different story.


    Because, no matter how many versions of Otabek there are, they all deserve better than Yuri. Otabek’s like a ray of sunshine, while Yuri’s a storm cloud wrecking everything in sight. It’s high time Yuri fixes all the chaos he’s caused.

    Summary

    “I still don’t know if I can trust you.”
    “You’ll learn to.”
    “Tchh. If you say so.”
    Yuri stands up and hurls his half-full bottle toward the river. The water reflects the decaying outlines of the buildings, and the pieces scatter on its frozen surface. Otabek watches without further comment. As he exhales strawberry-scented clouds, they seem to carry away the rest of Yuri’s rage.
    Maybe he’ll learn to trust Otabek.


    The constant media scrutiny takes a heavy toll on Yuri. Despite his fading fame, devoted fans still closely follow his every move. As a result, he must also endure Otabek, the annoying bodyguard responsible for keeping him safe.

    Summary

    The frost lingers this year. Life seems dull, frozen under a thick layer of ice. The streets are white, the sky is white, the buildings are white, and even the smoke is white. Otabek watches it vanish from the chimneys; all things are meant to slip away from him, as smoke would.

    Life doesn't make sense to Otabek. He’s twenty-eight. He’s not okay. He screwed up. How can he find his way back when his whole world seems to have been washed away?
