I love how Bloom isn't like "uh you're hot, I totally want you as bf" to Skye, but real down to earth about it: Sounds complicated, don't need that right now, thanks but no thanks.
I also love how the teachers/grown ups aren't looking down on the kids much as is so often portrayed, but genuinely caring. The headmistress didn't even try and keep up the "bullshit" when challenged and right out told Bloom the truth. That's real healthy.
When Muse starts stalking Sam, at first I thought maybe the thing with him is that she can't feel anything from him, hence the attraction. Like with Sookie and Eric... can't read vampires' thoughts haha! Interesting turn to find out he's actually Terra's brother. Who would have guessed! Also, he doesn't have an earthy name, like Terra said her family all does. Adore that in the face of danger, she's actually the one solid as a rock, able to perform tasks while everyone else around her melts away. Puns intended. That makes her less flattering character traits (aka being a fucking chatterbox) a little more tolerable.
So Stella uses fear and anger to trigger magic, but when it comes down to it, and she's actually scared herself, she can't? Unreliable indeed. Seems like Aisha knows more about her than we do. She doesn't use magic like a first year either. And with just a little floosh they kill a scary burned one? Hmmmmmmm. Not sure. At first I thought, the whispering voices were something like Will'o Wisps or helpful spirits that guide Bloom, but now it seems like they're pulling her toward the Burned Ones. Interesting to hear Bloom say she felt a connection to it. Which has me begin to suspect that her being a Fire Fairy has something to do with... well... burned people. Maybe her family was the one creating them in the first place.
Aaaaand intrigues are rolling! Who the heck is "he"? A disgruntled fairy king? A ... non-fairy?
All in all, I find this show to be quite healthy so far indeed. There's even moments with the more dubious characters.
