just gonna add my unwanted headcanons
natsu?? def enby ish. probs any pronouns, is just vibing. i wanna say pansexual aromantic, bc he does have fanservice-y moments and is mostly just oblivious to romance.
erza and cana are basically canon wlw - am i wrong?? jellal’s the only guy erza’s ever liked and cana might go for a guy once in a while but wouldn’t be serious about it.
lucy and juvia are gay as hell. i refuse to accept juvia’s obsession with gray as romantic bc thats not what i think romance is but i definitely do believe it was sexual. also juvia is definitely somewhere in the enby spectrum.
gray had a crush on erza at some point, probably also on natsu tho tbf. not lucy or juvia, at all - he’s definitely some form of demi, possibly asexual.
i can’t see jellal ever having romantic feelings for anyone but erza, so i’ll call him greyromantic. he’s also definitely asexual. not sex repulsed, but it isn’t something he has any desire for.
gajeel has always been ftm in my head and i have absolutely no reason for that. he n levy are doing great being str8 together, and i’m p comfortable saying they’re both straight.
also QUEERPLATONIC NALU is the future. lucy kinda thought it might be romantic at some point but natsu is very aromantic and now they chill and eat ice cream together. they are always mistaken for a couple, esp since natsu will get jealous if lucy spends more time w her partner than him but their solution for that was for natsu to tag along on dates like their kid.
none, and i mean none, of the fairy tail characters are cishet (as in maybe cis but part of the lgbt community and/or trans/nb etc). idc. yall can disagree with me but i refuse to acknowledge some of these ships (like gruvia oop).
natsu dragneel is aroace and overall a no labels guy in general. lucy heartfila is bi leaning guys but we all know she has a gf. gray fullbuster is gay or bi. erza scarlet is bi leaning girls.
natsu has a close ass relationship with lucy but they're not romantic in any way. they enjoy eachothers company, spend one on one time together etc (im bad at explaining JDNDKXJD). if juvia's obsessive and unhealthy behaviour towards gray wasn't canon, she'd probably be crushing on lucy. gray.... oh, gray. he is. oh, you know. erza is just vibing.
my main fairy tail ships are currently:
(romantic) jellal x gray
(romantic) erza x jellal
(platonic) lucy x natsu
(romantic) lucy x juvia if she didn't have her obsession
(romantic) levy x gajeel
of course, everything i say is headcanons, but lemme just believe this is real,, this once,,
it's not that cassandra is feeling neglected imo bc kristen is actively rejecting her lmao, but i think there's something to the idea that cassandra is a reflection of kristen. she doesn't act like kristen (not even any previous iteration of kristen) but she does look like kristen and represent a time in kristen's life that she maybe doesn't want to think about, possibly because of a certain someone tattooed on her neck that's not here anymore👀👀
ok ok ok not to uh. get up in weeds about the whole cass and kristen thing but i keep seeing people say like ‘i feel so bad for cassandra’ but an important thing that i feel like we need to remember that brennan has emphasized throughout previous seasons about the gods is that they are the reflection of their followers. cass looks like kristen because they are kristen.
when cass is feeling neglected and shunted aside do we think maybe it’s cuz who kristen actually is is being neglected? they have spent the whole summer trying to save the world, that doesn’t leave time for them to like process what they’ve gone through and who they are so maybe cass feels dejected cuz kristen doesn’t know who she is either
just. food for thought
MORE. REGULUS. APPRECIATION.
Regulus: Hey guys welcome back to my YouTube channel. If you’re new here, my name is Regulus, like the star. If you call me Reg or Reggie, I will hit you with an unforgivable. Just kidding. Mostly. Anyways, today I have my godnephew here with me! Say hi
Harry: Hey
Regulus: So Harry goes to Hogwarts. I used to go there. Lots of fun memories. I even got a tattoo at school. Sirius made me get it removed but I’m over it. Anyways, we’re gonna rate Harry’s teachers. Go ahead Harry
Harry: First off we have Professor Snape
Regulus (choking on his water): We have WHO? Snape as in Severus Snape? Hogwarts let him be a teacher? Oh God. Ugh he was so creepy when we were in school. Always sticking his big nose in other peoples business. He even tried to expose Remus for being a (BLEEP). Oh wait, that was a secret. I’ll just edit it out. Next?
Harry: Headmaster Dumbledore?
Regulus: Ugh 0/10. He pretends to be nice but that man is always scheming. He gives special treatment to the lions of course. And his robes? Could you get any more tacky? It’s like he’s screaming for attention. Next!
Harry: Umbridge?
Regulus: Did you just pick out people you know I hate?
Harry (hiding the list of names): No
Regulus: Ok that’s enough for today! Thanks Harry! Tune in next week where Harry and I’ll be putting a muggle product called “hair remover” in Sirius’ shampoo.
something underrated about ayda aguefort in terms of autism rep is that she has a +3 to charisma. everyone who meets her agrees that she's cool as hell
i don't have art to go along w this rn, BUT i desperately want junior year to include ayda living w her dad IF ONLY so fig and adaine can visit and we can see the inevitably insane house arthur aguefort lives in!!
I can't stop thinking about Travis' face when Lottie mentioned Javi, because of course that would work.
It's not even just because Javi's in the Wilderness and he wants to stay with him, but the thought of going home without him? Out of everyone, Travis is the only one whose return would be painful to his remaining family. He returns home not proud that he survived, but ashamed that he didn't bring his little brother with him. He's probably already ashamed that Javi died instead of him, if Travis died then at least their mother would feel comforted knowing he died protecting his little brother. Now? If he comes home instead of Javi, it's because he failed to protect him. Every time he protected himself he must have felt selfish, like he was choosing himself over his baby brother.
Imagining his life after rescue, I can see why Travis ended up where he did. I can see why anything he does to keep himself safe or make himself happy felt like a moral failing after he couldn't do any of it for Javi. I can see why, as much as he desperately wants to live, the thought of going home and telling his mom what happened made him want to stay in the Wilderness with his brother.
im so glad nobody's going for this steve/nancy last-second shit - eddie saying it's true love was the most uncomfortable thing that it should have been played as a joke lmao. i get that eddie and robin don't really know about their whole history but they're really acting like jonathan and nancy broke up like wtf they haven't spoken all season
i'm actually really enjoying this season but they are not seriously pushing steve and nancy, are they? steve didn't spend two seasons getting over her just to get back with her now. i didn't watch all the nancy and jonathan storyline for this. no.
