Space Australia Winx

By:FunahoMisaki

(A/N: I own nothing and this is based off of some Tumblr posts about Earth being the Space Australia cause of how fucking weird humans are…so here we have this in pretty much Winx form with Bloom being clueless of course. AU OOC just for Fun)

"Ms. Stella why are you so insistent on Ms. Bloom staying near you at all times, and if it's not you it's the rest of your dorm-mates!" Ms. Griselda demanded one day when she saw Stella nearly following Bloom into the bathroom and stopped the girl, but watched in disbelief as Tecna just so happened to need to use the bathroom at the same time.

"Did you know that Earth's years are less than half of our own year schedules? For us one year is nearly three to her!" Stella said her eyes wide and a bit horrified as she stared at the teacher who blinked at that and adjusted her glasses.

"No, I admittedly did not know that. It's a fascinating observation to be sure but I'm afraid that does not explain you and your dorm-mates behavior surrounding young Miss Bloom." Griselda said although she did make a mental note to herself to look into that later. There were some old manuals about interactions with the humans of Earth somewhere in the library she was sure. If there wasn't then Barbatea would be more than happy to find some and share the knowledge with everyone else.

Griselda also made a mental note to tell Ophelia about the differences in time lapsing, they were unsure what Miss Bloom's reaction to the difference in time would be after all. It did explain why she seemed so confused and strange within the first week or two of her time on Magix however and that was around the time that the girls started acting strange about the red head.

"Ms. Griselda… Bloom is sixteen years old." Stella said slowly and making Griselda raise an eyebrow unsure what the girls age had to do with anything.

"Sixteen years old. In Earth years." Stella said as delicately as she could, warily watching the woman who frowned for a second before the pieces fit together slowly within her mind. One Earth year was barely a third of a Magix year. When Bloom turned three by Earth standards, she was one to the rest of the galaxy.

"She's barely five years old." Griselda nearly breathed out in horror and disbelief. There was a five year old with the body of a teenager and who was considered mature and grown up on her home planet.

"Why is she away from her caretakers and on a different planet?" Griselda asked staring at Stella wide eyed, her composure shot to hell because of this new information. No wonder the girl seemed so confused and unsure of herself when compared to the rest of her classmates! She was barely older than a toddler!

"I didn't know how time lapsed differently until she told us how long an Earth year was. Apparently on Earth five is a perfectly acceptable and grown up age where the child is able to be trusted to go out by themselves for hours or days, and her parents must have thought that she'd be okay with me because they agreed to let her come to school with me." Stella said and you could tell by the way she was wringing her hands, a bad habit for a princess to have that Griselda would have to inform the girl about another time when things weren't so out of whack, that she was more than a bit worried and panicked about being tasked with such a huge responsibility.

She seemed a bit pleased though and Griselda knew why. Most species were very protective of their young since children were so rare and treasured in the magical dimensions, it was why the classes at Alfea were always so small despite there being such a large school. So for a set of parentals to trust the princess with their so very young and still developing offspring? That was a high honor and an even bigger deal.

"Has she had her immunizations yet? What about any health or dietary requirements? Are they all being met?" Griselda asked her eyes wandering to the door where Bloom had yet to re-emerge.

"I've been watching her closely and when I'm busy one of the others is always with her. We don't know about her immunizations, we're trying to get her to visit the nurse now, but we've noticed no negative signs to anything she eats aside from the fact that she eats a little more than everyone else. Sometimes she goes and finds the kitchens to get a 'snack' between meals and we've asked but apparently this is a normal thing on Earth for most of its population. Flora was trying to see about finding a human health care manual while Tecna and I got her to Ophelia." Stella said and she was still wringing her hands but Griselda said nothing for the moment since she couldn't blame the girl.

"Stella!" Tecna cried bursting from the bathroom with Bloom held by her armpits looking confused and surprised and slightly alarmed.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Stella was already checking Bloom over before Tecna even fully made it out the door.

"I don't know why or how but she's bleeding and she says it's normal and I don't know what to do!?" Tecna was near frantic as she held Bloom up, showcasing the strength that was common but not very much thought of on her planet even if it would be rather prized on other realms.

"I'm fine Tecna! It's just my period. Don't you have those?" Bloom asked baffled by how everyone was reacting as Griselda was already scanning the girl with her eyes as well.

"What's a period?" Stella asked trying to calm down since Bloom didn't seem worried about the blood that Tecna said she was losing, and Tecna would never lie about something like this.

"Well if I'm not pregnant than for about five days every month I'll bleed. You don't have those in Magix?" Bloom asked confused about having to explain it to the others who were the same age, if not older, than she was.

"No we don't! How do you survive? You shouldn't have enough blood in your body to live after bleeding for five days straight!" Tecna said and her eyes were wide and frantic and her already pale skin went ashen white in horror at the thought.

"Stop standing here and talking and get her to medical!" Griselda said snatching the red head from Tecna's grasp and being surprisingly, to Bloom at least, gentle as she carried the girl and teleported to the medical wing which was just down the hallway.

"Griselda what?" Ophelia was shocked at the deputies sudden appearance, causing DuFour to look up from her blood tea at the smell of fresh blood from a human source.

"She's bleeding and she says it's normal but she says this happens every month for five days." Griselda said settling Bloom onto one of the beds gently and then beginning to hover slightly and mess with the blankets to try and do something with her hands.

"WHAT?" The other two women immediately moved to try and heal Bloom who was looking halfway amused halfway disbelieving of what was happening.

"It's fine. Honestly this happens to like half the population of Earth. It's nothing dangerous." Bloom said trying note to calm three frantic women, although Griselda seemed to be the worst of the lot.

"DuFour go find Barbatea and see if she has any books on Human health care or Earthlings and their requirements. They might be dated but it's better than nothing." Griselda snapped at the vampire who immediately vanished while Griselda walked over and whispered something urgently in Ophelia's ear. Ophelia didn't seem to believe it at first but after the first scan she ran on Bloom, her eyes widened and she became almost as frantic as Griselda was.

"Honestly it's fine. It's just my bodies way of getting rid of old 'eggs' that can be used to have a baby since I'm not going to have one. It's just an inconvenience, not dangerous." Bloom tried to calm the two women down, honestly she remembered how scared she had been when she got her first period so for planets that never had periods before to suddenly witness someone else having one it could be a shock and jarring. No wonder they were all so frantic about it.

"If… if you say so… is there anything for it?" Ophelia asked her hands flying over healing spells to check the girls immune system and dietary needs.

"I just need to stop the blood with some tampons or pads and usually if it gets bad I just get some ice cream or a cold pack to make it feel…slightly better. If it gets real bad then I just want to scream or stab something but I don't usually get that bad." Bloom said with an unbothered smile that didn't show her teeth, she had learned from the rest of her dorm-mates that baring her teeth was taken as a sign of aggression.

"I see." Griselda said slightly although she didn't really see at all. Earth people were weird.

Within the hour Bloom was sitting at a cafeteria table and Flora and Musa were back from in town so the red head was surrounded by her protective friends and being watched closely by two of the faculty, one of which was the feared Deputy Headmistress and acknowledged Queen of Detention.

"Here we managed to find everything." Musa said dropping the bag on the table in front of Bloom who blinked up at them curiously.

"Here this is what you said you needed for your strange earth thing right?" Flora asked already removing some ice packs and ice cream and a knife.

"Why a knife?" Bloom asked looking startled by the sight of the weapon and making each of the girls look at her immediately.

"We were told that you might want to stab things?" Musa said looking confused and worried she might have made a mistake.

"Fair enough." Bloom decided not to mention that she hadn't really mean it.

The magical people were weird.
