Willie, to Alex: Let's get this party started.
am i a total asshole for being kind of upset that they totally healed lydia? i know disabilities in fantasy are tough because there are spells that can fix everything but i get a bit sad imagining the new art of her without the gem standing up.
Remember when you used to be a rascal
clinging till i'm getting sentimental

ivy was too skinny to crop so she gets a 2for1 with glow in the dark oisin .also cheese
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,,
don't forget that pearl remembers the vindication of finally having a friend, and one that will make the ultimate sacrifice for you. of thinking everything was lost, of being the witch to scar's wicked, of resigning yourself to fight for blood until you are truly alone. the welcoming arms into victory that finally healed her aching heart. not to have to scratch and claw your way to the gates but to be invited in.
she saw herself in him and it drove her to make a sacrifice, and he saw himself in her and it drove him to stop her.
i haven't watched pearl's episode yet. but there's something to be said about the fact that she knew scar well enough to know that, when it was the two of them, he would have too much pride to accept a sacrifice.
she doesn't want to win, and she tells him at first before she quietly tucks that secret back into its shell after scar's indignant reaction to her first attempt at self-sacrifice. she lets scar forget about it as they kill gem, and then as scar kills pearl. at no point does she try to say here, let me give this to you. she knows scar, but she also knows the pain of an ending like that.
but she misses a few swings, doesn't she? her legs don't move as quickly to duck away from his arrows. and isn't that familiar? isn't that something like a cactus ring, with two unrelenting fists and two half-hearted ones: a fight with two unwilling participants, a fight that was over before it ever really began at the insistence of one of its patrons
pearl is all too familiar with the sting of sacrifice, but then on the other side of things... scar knows all too well the tragedy of gifted victory, doesn't he?
extremely underrated trope is the villain's sacrificial lambs that weren't misunderstood or being kept in the dark or mind-controlled when they were evil but are forced into a redemption arc because the villain betrayed them personally. former villains who only stopped because they failed or were caught. grunts that are discarded and switch sides only because they have no other choice. people who need to be force-fed morality to stay alive on the good team. people who improve but are never absolved. people who wanted to raise hell and only change their mind when they, too, are burned.
