Reboot announcement gave me an excuse to draw these two nerds again lmao

(obviously both Tecna and Timmy are more complex)

Watching the series you clearly notice that they aren't the same. They share the love for technology but even in that case they show it differently. indeed tecna is an IT while Timmy is a mechanic engineer. Flora x Helia and Aisha x Nabu feel more like the same person.

also guess eraklyon pendant was a thing? this is from s 3 - first movie artbook i think

honestly!? how great would've been to see all of them adults having kids and they being the next gen instead of all the terrible content rainbow tries to force? nothing will ever beat the og winx (i do consider s 4 og but the main story ends on 1 movie so anyway...)

next gen would've been so POWERFUL!

The relationship of Tecna and Timmy is so romantic.

It may be not as visible, because the show has couples being romantic in a more classical way, but Timmy and Tecna actually have so many tender, gentle and vulnerable moments. They are so sweet together, and awkward, and then out of nowhere hit you with the deepest scenes imaginable. They are so Jane-Austen's-characters'-coded lol.

Like this short scene of a game from season 2 (first gif)??? This is so romantic and sensual, you wouldn't expect it from them.

Their conflict in the second season was that Tecna at first cared about rather performative bravery (literal fighting, close combat) + wanted something more than just talking about their hyperfixation. Timmy, on the other hand, thought in a more logical way: he knew his strengths, and that he's better at strategy and computers, and wasn't interested in posing as a hero just to feel good about himself (this scene where he realizes he isn't strong enough against Trix and so he gives away the Codex). He also wanted to get closer to Tecna, so it makes sense he tried to connect on their common hobby, at first not realizing that Tecna, with her emotional growth, started to want a little more than this. And you can understand them both, and both have good points.

And Timmy is a freaking badass. He always thinks logically (I'd argue that even more than Tecna, like this scene with Codex, where she called him a coward for not doing something that was doomed from the start), and so the scene in the third season hits so much. You know which one. All Winx cry and Riven tries to comfort Timmy (I really like the fact it's Riven who does that btw, but this is a material for another post), trying to bring reason to him, politely saying that there's no way Tecna is still alive, and Timmy says in a calm and sure way that he knows she is alive. If Timmy says something like that, you know he's right.
