Kind of lazily done lineup of the gang since I finished freshman year earlier this week! :3 Gorgug is my fave
thinking about grian's 'there's a way we can still be friends' in last life. he didn't turn on the mounders - he wanted to stay friends.
Gah the way Mumbo was so distrustful of Yellows for having abilities they could use against Greens, the way Mumbo went after the Mounders (his friends) when he turned Red, the way they tried to talk him down and almost convinced him they could still be a team...
Because that's how it was in Last Life. In Last Life, once you were Red you're friends were gone. That was it. You couldn't ally anymore.
And Mumbo never got past that, he never got to see an alternative (until the small glimpse he got with the Mounders, before the Warden got him)
adaine's denim jacket is a mental illness/trauma recovery staple, actually. she wears that jacket every goddamn day and it has fluffy pockets and probably mysterious stains and tears that are a reminder of the life she's lived. a tear from catching on one of gorgug's tin flowers that she wore like a corsage on prom night. a yoghurt stain from gilear that really was powerfully resistant to cleaning, as much as she tried. a pulled seam from kristen shoving her whole buff arm into a pocket to get ecaf out. an extravagant embroidery of her name sewn onto the inside of the collar by cathilda in fabian's calligraphy. an abjurative ward burned into the denim by aelwyn who never learned to sew. an eternally damp spot on the shoulder where boggy cuddles up still wet from the aquatic portion of his backpack. a missing chunk of wool taken by riz for 'analysis' that was really stuffed into a baggie and pinned on a conspiracy board. a tiny unicorn created from fig's illusion in the nightmare forest that seemed to stay real even after leaving the forest prancing about the inner world of the jacket. a pocket in the ethereal realm just so that ghostly edgar the rat can curl up in it without phasing through it. an 'in memoriam' patch sewn in to commemorate the jacket-world person who sacrificed his life to give her a wand of ray of frost in freshman year. a little uplifting message written in ballpoint pen on the inside of her cuff during class. a smattering of wolf hairs that persist no matter how hard she tries to brush them off and keep ending up in her mouth somehow, although she keeps politely quiet about the occasional grey she finds on her shoulders.
the AUDACITY of kristen chilis applebees criticising wolfsong for not being serious enough - MA'AM YOU JUMPED FROM FABIAN'S ROOF ON A SHRIMP MOTORCYCLE INTO A POOL OF TARTAR SAUCE AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN MENTION THE RELIGION!!
urgently seeking more images of this nature
feeling creative, so inspired, beautiful new day to create a mood board for an idea that i will never come back to
unfinished grian + etho designs from session 6
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,,
POV your rage goddess didn't bring u back so u had to crawl out urself and came back fundamentally different <3
