#glissandix

Glissandix is the forme of Sound and to get it you have to essentially recite any spell for a reason not related to study or practice in a perfect intonation, as if you’re turning it into a song. It’s a hard form to get because it requires a lot of vocal training and control, not to mention finding oneself in the situation where they would get it, but it offers a boost on all voiced spells and sound-based magic in general. This affects the Winx in different ways if they were to get it - Stella and Aisha have proper formal voice training in their role as princesses, so they have a greater vocal control than most others. Bloom lacks this, but because she can sing decently well she wouldn’t have as hard of a time as Flora and Tecna would, as neither of them are really used to speaking a certain way that isn’t their natural tone and have their own issues with speaking out in general (neither are particularly shy, but Flora’s someone that lets her actions do the talking and Tecna doesn’t see a point to it). Obviously Musa’s the one best suited for the form, as the literal Fairy of Music, and as such gets the eye aura effect.

Outside of that, design talk! We DO have a canonical music-related transformation - Magic Rock from the S8 comics, but. well. look at it.

you understand lmao. IT DID TAKE STELLA’S BOOTS but that’s about it really. Also they used this form to fight ghosts sabotaging a concert? that they later decided to crash and play in it? it was weird.

ANYWAYS, what I actually used as a design guideline was their NUMEROUS concert outfits across the series, primarily their S5, S8 and Winx In Concert looks. You can tell from which I stole their hairstyles from!
