Please may I have Fairy tail headcanons all separate for Gray Fullbuster, Natsu Dragneel and Laxus with a darling who clearly gave up on life..doesn't care anymore..yanderes clearly broke the darling enough..darling doesn't care anymore. No longer full of life..lifeless as doll (you may as well hug the darling and there is no response) and even punishments doesn't hurt anymore or anything. How would the yanderes react when they realised that they went too far.
Feel free to ignore this if you don't want to do this.
Broken Darling Headcanons for Natsu, Gray, and Laxus
I think I may have already done this kind of request, but I can modify it to fit yours specifically. You can find the original one here.
Warnings: Yandere themes, vague mentioning of punishments, broken reader, lifeless reader, reader is an upseti yeti, whipping, sadistic tendencies
Checkout my Master List here.
—————————————————————————
Tumblr media
Natsu Dragneel:
After spending so much time under the flaming thumb of Natsu, you realize that you’ll never get away from him. All of the escape attempts, all of the fighting, all of the punishments, it was all pointless. This realization has you crying all night until you finally snap. He broke you, and you have to live with this for the rest of your life. You have to live with him for the rest of your life. He is the rest of your life. He is your life.
He reassures you that you’ve just come around. He tells you that everything is going to be so much easier now. If he tells you to do something, then you do it (albeit lifelessly). Sometimes, he has to prop you up like a doll to sit with him because you’re so depressed that you can’t even manage to keep your back straight. He doesn’t mind, though. He loves feeding you in bed.
You’ve learned how to be a really good darling for Natsu now, and your life has become a lot easier. You still hate it, being a lifeless shell of what you once were, but you’ll always be Natsu’s pretty darling.
Tumblr media
Gray Fullbuster:
Goodness. You really had to give out on Gray? He doesn’t know what the hell is wrong with you, and it tears at his heart because he can’t seem to fix you. You’re his life, his darling. All he wants is for you to be happy, but you can’t even give him the smallest smile.
He’s happy that he doesn’t have to punish you anymore at least. He always hated doing that to you. He especially hated having to force feed you. It was all just so much of a bother to him. Still, he wishes that even the smallest flick of his fingers against your cheek could make you react.
He has gotten over his suspicions about you putting up a lifeless ruse. Now, he just sighs and pulls you in close against him. You’re the love of his life, but he misses the old you. He wants you back so badly. “Please, just tell me what I can do to help you,” he whispers in your ear.
Tumblr media
Laxus Dreyar:
10/10 does not know what the fuck is wrong with you at first and absolutely can’t stand it. He’ll whip you with his lightning immediately if you don’t answer his questions. He’s not a patient man, and he does have sadistic tendencies. Yes, he loves you, but that doesn’t mean you get to shut him out.
When you don’t eat, when you can’t sleep, when you can barely keep yourself standing at times, that’s when he knows something is really wrong and punishing you won’t fix it. He thought he could snap you out of this catatonic state with a little violence. Obviously not.
In the end, he’ll hold you closely. He won’t say a word. After months of trying to reason with you, trying to get you to eat and sleep, only to have you not respond, he’ll just put you on his lap and hug you at the end of the day. He’ll breathe deeply against your shoulder, taking you in. It’s at least comforting to him.

Pushin’ It
Laxus x AFAB!reader
Summary: You and Laxus are training when your period starts to hate you at a bad time.
Warnings: mentions of period cramping and hormones, no pronouns used, training, crying
A/N: should i make a pt 2?
Once again, you were knocked off your feet and onto the ground. The lightning dragon slayer stood over you with a smirk.
“You seem distracted today. What’s wrong?” He offered his hand. You glared at it, but still took it as he easily pulled you to your feet.
“It’s nothing.” You weren’t going to tell him you were on your period and having god-awful cramps, because then, he wouldn’t want to train with you anymore. It bothered you, feeling weak compared to him, especially during times like this.
He only sighed. “Let’s take a break.”
“I’m fine, Laxus-”
“Who said the break was for you?” he interrupted.
You scoffed. “You need a break? Yeah, right.”
He rolled his eyes, sitting down against a nearby tree.
You sat beside him. He offered you some water and you gladly took it.
“So, are you gonna tell me or what?”
You sighed. “I’m. Fine.”
“And I have neon pink hair.”
You glared at him once more before smirking. “It’d suit you.”
He scoffed.
After a moment of silence passed, you stood up. “C’mon.” You grabbed his hand to pull him up, but he wouldn’t budge.
“I think I’m done for the day.”
“Laxus, I told you. I’m fi- argh-” You doubled over in pain as a particular sharpness stabbed in your lower abdomen.
“(Name)!” Laxus was quick to rush up to you, grabbing your shoulders. “Are you injured?!”
“No-” you managed out, “I’m on my period.”
Realization hit his features as irritation built up. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Because I knew you wouldn’t train with me if you knew,” you sighed.
“And why does that matter?” His voice was stern.
“Because, Laxus, I want to be strong.” You were growing as impatient with him as he was with you.
“What?”
“I don’t want to hold you back during jobs. I want you to think I’m strong.” You frowned, feeling tears sting at your eyes. Those damned hormones…
“You are strong. But strength also comes from knowing when to stop.” He took your chin between his finger and thumb and tilted your head to look at him.
You blushed. “You’re just saying that.”
“Perhaps.” He smirked and you puffed out your cheeks. “I’ll…” he sighed, “I’ll pamper you if you agree to rest.” He looked away, eyebrows furrowing as his cheeks dusted a light pink color. He never wanted to admit to being soft, but when it came to you..?
You slowly smirked. “Chocolate?” He nodded. “Bubble bath?” He nodded. “Face masks?”
“You’re pushin’ it.”
You laughed.
He kissed you on the forehead before the two of you headed home, hand in hand.

Through Fire & Blood I
Tumblr media
hi idk how to use Tumblr lol. So originally this was just gonna be a one-shot but I got a bit stuck and decided to release it as a series, it'll probably have very slow updates tho please be warned. yes, that title is a reference to House Targaryen. I have tried to keep both dragon and rider vague to allow the reader to picture their dragon and their rider
Through Fire & Blood I
Rengoku Kyōjurō x DragonRider!MC
The first time Kyōjurō Rengoku see’s you it's from afar. In fact, he didn't even see you, Just a majestic dragon with a mysterious rider. The gusts of wind graced his form even when he was standing 1000 meters away, all because you and your dragon were flying amongst the heavens. Truly a sight to behold. This world was no stranger to the creatures but to see the winged beasts here in the east was a rarer sight with most of the eastern dragons remaining reclusive, and yet here you were! A dragon rider! Such a concept here was unheard of! Such creatures were either revered or hunted. Hunted and feared more like. Perhaps you were here to end that practice. Although, how you could accomplish such a feat on your own, he hadn't the faintest clue. Anyhow as fascinating of a thought it was, the end of the dragon war, Kyōjurō had a war of his own to fight. 
That night the idea of dragons still plagued Kyōjurō’s mind. As he wandered his usual patrol route he thought of what it'd be like to patrol from the skies on the back of a dragon. When he swung his sword he thought of the bright and brilliant flames of dragon fire. After Kyōjurō had finished his nightly patrol, when he lay comfortably in his futon, he thought of the stories his mother had often told him before bed. She had always been well-versed in other cultures.
The story of how the Hooligan tribe of Berk learned to live peacefully with the dragons was always one of Kyōjurō’s favourites. A young boy wanted to become a dragonslayer so he could prove to his father that he was worthy of being a Viking. It wasn't dissimilar to Kyōjurō’s own desires to prove himself to his family, namely his father that he was worthy of them. one night the boy snuck out during an attack on the village and managed to shoot down a dragon that was the unholy offspring of lightning and death itself. When the boy travelled into the woods the next day to finish what he started he found himself incapable and instead freed the beast. In the following weeks, the boy and the dragon became friends and set in motion the events that would lead to peace with the dragons. While the rest of the story didn't relate to Kyōjurō, he couldn't deny the idea of putting an end to a war that’d been going on for centuries certainly did sound appealing, especially with his family’s pivotal role in the Demon Slayer Corps being that of Hashira. Recounting the events of such a near and dear tale had Kyōjurō’s eyes going heavy as the distant memory of his mother’s embrace lulled him to sleep.
The second time Kyōjurō Rengoku see’s you he’s eating lunch. A trio of riders with you at the head saunter in with a certain swagger to your step and dragons at your heels, all before one of the restaurant staff appears to shoo the animals out “No animals inside! Out with those beasts!” She cried. Kyōjurō watched from behind the towering stacks of empty dishes as your group sent their dragons outside and proceeded to order their party’s food. 
Soon after the trio of riders leave the restaurant to take their seats outside Kyōjurō resumes his meal, a hearty umai with every bite. It seems however, Kyōjurō’s jubilant exclamations of ‘delicious’ had caught the eye–well ear, rather–of a certain member of the gang of riders.
while the heated gaze of others wasn’t an uncommon occurrence for him, this time was different. He could sense the unwavering gaze of unknown eyes searing into his temple with such an intensity that it gave him pause to his meal to observe whoever could watch him with such fierceness. His search was over as soon as his gaze met yours. Your eyes had locked for no more than a moment before you quickly set your sights back on your meal, your friends chatting away as if nothing had happened. Did anything happen? Surely it must’ve, judging by the way your eyes flickered between him and your food or the subtle warmth on your cheeks or even the muted flush of his own cheeks.

I hoped you liked it :3

Hi there, I noticed your requests are open! May I please request some smut for laxus with a fem reader, headcanons or scenario I don't mind (I hope this isn't too vague and I hope you do smut, if not some fluff would be nice) thanks!
Surprise {Laxus Dreyar x F!Reader}
Tumblr media
Summary: You had news, important news to tell Laxus. You wanted to make it special, so while preparing the surprise, something happens. Will you be able to tell Laxus the news?
A/N: I AM SO SORRY!!! I was working on this ever since you made the request and I had that long bout of writers block and hated touching my WIPs! But now I can finally do this request! I wrote like six prompts for this request and this was the one that I could flesh out the most. I know you asked for smut, so I may do a part two of this, have it take place after the one year time skip. I just wanted have something for you, instead of leaving this in the drafts. 
Word count: 5k
---
You’ve been in the guild since you were young, and have stayed with them through thick and thin. You found solace in the Thunder Legion and in the arms of the Master’s grandson Laxus. The two of you clicked in ways you’ve never expected. You started as going close friends and went through it all together. From the Battle Royale, which did drift you to his sudden appearance at Tenrou Island. It was the two of you, along with the Thunder Legion, against the world. Ever since Tenrou Island, the two of you have been dating, and it was the best decision of your life. 
Now it was after the Grand Magic Games and for a while, things were peaceful in Magnolia. There were a lot of jobs being taken, wizards of Fairy Tail were thriving. It was all good.
You were out shopping, a soft smile on your face as you picked up things for the dinner tonight. You were planning a dinner with your boyfriend and his friends tonight. A special one you told them. You were wearing a black, spaghetti strap, corset top, with ripped, black jeans and a pair of strappy boot heels. You were in one of the best moods of your life, so excited for tonight. 
You picked up some dry pasta and placed it alongside your other items in your basket. You went over the list of everything you needed before heading to an empty checkout line. Once you began to place the different food you bought in the lane, your mind drifted back to before you arrived here. When you had to tell them why you couldn’t come with them for their restaurant job at 8-Island. 
“A special dinner? For what?” Bickslow questioned, crossing his arms. 
You just smiled smugly, placing your finger on top of your plump, glossy lips, “that, my dear friend, is for me to know and for you guys to find out! Now I don’t want to keep old man Yajima waiting! Go!” You shoved the long-tongued man, along with the rest of them, towards the large guild door. 
Laxus, being Laxus of course, barely budged from your efforts to push them out, instead choosing to turn around and grab you by the wrists. You tried to squirm out his hold but he held your wrists tighter and pulled you even closer, looking into your eyes. You squirmed at his intense stare, trying to look away from his blue-gray eyes. 
“You sure it’s nothing bad?” He questioned softly, one of his hands moving from your wrist to your waist. 
You relaxed a bit before smiling, exhaling through your nose. You raised an arm to caress his cheek softly, running your thumb over his lips. 
“I promise it’s a good thing.” Still holding his cheek, you leaned up and gave him a peck on his cheek, leaving a glossy print. 
He muttered “angrily” at your actions but his cheeks gave him away as they turned red which made him glance everywhere but at you. You smiled at his actions and gave them one final push out of the guild so they can make it on time for their restaurant job at 8-Island. 
“See you guys tonight! And don’t eat too much there, I’m making a big dinner!” You waved them off. 
The Thunder Legion turned around and waved at you back, Evergreen yelled at you to make your famous butter rolls. You smiled at her and yelled back that you already planned to make them. She smiled at you and turned back around and caught up with the rest of them. 
Laxus glanced back at you and winked at you, making you roll your eyes and smile at him and waved your fingers at him before entering the guild to talk to Mira about her recipe books. 
You smiled before hearing the cashier calling out to you. Your cheeks immediately burned in embarrassment, before pulling out your wallet to pay for your things. She handed you your receipt, which you thanked her for before summoning a cloud to help you carry all of your things home. It was already getting close to the time they were supposed to be returning from 8-Island anyways. You wanted to get dinner started for them so they wouldn’t be waiting long. 
You walked towards your home, clouds carrying your bags and your hands on your abdomen. 
Not realizing the horror that was happening to your loved ones right now. 
----
Meanwhile, at the Fairy Tail guild hall…
“How are we supposed to tell her?”
The entire guild was in the infirmary, moments after Freed carried all his team and Yajima back to the guild. They were currently unconscious, their bodies writhing in pain from the Bane particles in their system.  Porlyusica was still trying to ease their pain.
“Huh? Tell who?!” Natsu asked, looking around the guild. 
“You idiot!” Lucy yelled, hitting him in the back of the head before pointing all around the guild. 
“Who else?!? Y/n Of course! She’s not here! She doesn’t know what happened to them!”
Natsu looked at Lucy incredulously before looking around before realizing she was right, you weren’t here. No one has seen you since Laxus and the Thunder Legion left for their job. Mira, however, looked away and down as she started to recall the conversation you had with her. It was right before you left the guild, heading towards the stores in town today. 
“She went out in the town today,” Mira started, tears filling her waterline, “she said she had a surprise for Laxus and the Thunder Legion and wanted to make a special dinner for the four of them,” Mira told the whole guild, looking down at her hands, tears filling her eyes. 
“I have to make an amazing dinner for them tonight, cause of the news I have to tell them!” You were so excited, taking the book in Mira’s hands and putting it in your bag. 
Mira giggled and clasped her hands together in joy, “may I ask what this special surprise is supposed to be?”
You looked at Mira, eyeing her carefully. After Ever, you did think of Mira as your best friend. The two of you hit it off when you joined the guild with Evergreen. Plus she knew how to keep a secret. When she wanted to anyways. You took a deep breath and smiled before placing your hands on your abdomen. 
She looked down at your hands before looking back at you. You tapped your finger pads gently against your abdomen, making her look back down. She was still confused for a moment before her eyes widened in shock and she gasped loudly. 
“You- You’re preg-”
Frantically, you quickly reached up to her face and covered her mouth with your hands. You looked around to make sure that no one heard her. Luckily no one is paying attention to you guys. All you did was nod your head at what she was asking you before slowly removing your hand from your mouth. 
“I’m so happy for you!” Her eyes filled with tears as she carefully wrapped her arms around you. 
You smiled at her happiness and wrapped your arms around her, relishing in her warm hug. You both stayed like that for a moment before letting go. You told her that you hadn’t told Laxus or the Thunder Legion yet and that you wanted to make a special dinner for the five of you. To do that, you have to head out to the store to get the things you needed for dinner tonight. 
Mira smiled in happiness for you as she waved you off, seeing you walk out the guild doors, with a skip in your walk. 
“See you later Mira!”
Mira began to sob in her hands, taking a seat beside Laxus’ bed. Lisanna immediately began to comfort her, wrapping her arms around her older sister’s trembling shoulders. The entire guild could only look in sadness as the white-haired S-Class wizard cried for her friends. 
“T-this is going to kill her,” Mira sobbed, taking the tissue Juvia offered her. 
Gray opened his mouth, was about to say something when loud creaking, which usually came from the guild front doors, started filling the quiet air. They could hear footsteps slowly entering before hearing, 
“Hello!!? Where are you guys? Where is everyone?” 
It was you. It was way past the time that Laxus said he and the others would be home. After waiting for over an hour, you decided to come to the guild. You had planned to go to the 8-Island restaurant but city officials had closed off the area due to a gas leak. At least, that’s what they were telling people who asked. They would have told you something different, however, your guild Mark was on your shoulder blade, and you were wearing a jacket.
Mira began to cry harder, her body shaking. 
“I-I can’t-,” she choked, coughing into her hands. 
Master Makarov sighed, stroking his beard, his eyes closed. He stood there for a moment before turning around and headed towards the infirmary door. 
“Don’t worry child, I’ll tell her.”
——
You were getting worried. First Laxus and the Thunder Legion don’t show up and now the guildhall is empty. You changed out of your outfit, wearing a long-sleeved, black, ruched dress with ruffles all over the dress. Your coils, usually in a wash-and-go style, are now slicked up into an afro puff and decorated with a butterfly clip that Laxus had gotten you one time. You looked around at the empty guildhall, wondering where everyone was. 
“Guys, this is getting really weird… where are you?!” You called out one more time. 
You then heard movements behind you, making you quickly turn around and get in a battle stance. Only to find Master Makarov coming down the stairs. You let out a breath of relief before walking up to him. 
“I’m so glad to see you,” you smiled at your future grandfather-in-law, “where’s the rest of the guild? Have they all taken jobs again? And do you know where Laxus is? It’s getting late.”
Gramps sighed before taking your hand and leading you to the closest table to the stairs. He made you sit down as he looked down in anguish. 
“Gramps… is there something wrong?” You asked him tentatively, leaning over to try and look him in the face. 
You could see tears in his waterline which made you even worried. What could have happened for him to feel like crying?
“My dear Y/n… something has happened…”
——
The doors of the infirmary slammed open, causing everyone to gasp and turn around as they saw you running inside like a madwoman. You pushed them all away from you, basically having no regard for any of them. You soon reached the closest bed. 
Which just so happens to be Laxus’ bed. 
Your body began to shake as your eyes glanced over on his sickly body. He was pale, oh so very pale, you could almost see the poison moving through his veins. His eyes were closed but you could hear him grunt from the pain of the and writhe in pain. There was sweat glistening on his body. The tears were already falling from your eyes. 
“N-no, not L-Laxus,” you stuttered, slowly falling to your knees.
You couldn't breathe. You could see dark spots started to cloud your vision, you could feel your eyes beginning to flutter open and closed. You took a couple of steps back before you lost your footing, stumbling on yourself. 
“Y-Y/n?” You heard someone question but you couldn’t place who it was as your vision blackened, falling to the ground unconscious. 
“Y/N!”
Gray, being the closest male to you, immediately picked you up and placed you on the next empty bed, the one beside Freed’s. Porlyusica immediately came over to check on you, placing a stethoscope on your body and placing it at different vital areas. She removed the tool and placed her hands on your abdomen, her hands giving off a blue glow. A few seconds after her hands immediately turned pink. 
She slowly nodded her head, before removing her hands, the pink glow slowly fading away. The entire guild watched as Porlyusica slowly rose from her kneeling position before turning to face the rest of the guild, looking on at their collapsed guildmate with immense worry. 
“Well?!” Natsu questioned, “what’s wrong with her?”
Porlyusica just sighed and smiled sadly, shaking her head. 
“She’s pregnant.”
The entire guild gasped loudly at the news and the reveal only seemed to make Mira cry even harder. Some looked over at you, seeing your tears drying on your face as you rest. Some looked onto Master, waiting for his reaction. Others looked onto Porlyusica as she explained the reason for your fainting. 
“She just needs to rest, I guess she stressed herself out a little too much today and this just topped everything,” Porlyusica said, reaching over to pull up the blanket to right under your chin.
Porlyusica made sure that you were as comfortable as possible, before turning to the rest of the Fairy Tail Guild, “This is a crucial time for her, she needs to be resting… which means you all need to find the person who did this Laxus and the rest of the Thunder Legion and find them quickly!”
The guild’s all-around sullen faces became hardened with resolve, with these new developments, a new enemy was upon them. Master Makarov already started to make plans to find the other council members and protect them while making plans to find Tartarus. The entire guild soon cleared out of the infirmary, on Prolyusica’s orders, of course, saying that the large group was making her and her patients stuffy. After everyone left, Erza already yelled at them to start the search for the former council members. However, Mira and Lisanna stayed, looking on to your resting body before turning their eyes towards the Thunder Legion and Old Man Yajima. 
“Don’t worry Mira,” Lisanna said, giving her sister a reassuring one-sided hug, “Laxus and the others are gonna make it out of this alive and he and Y/n are gonna have their baby.”
Mira took a deep breath, wiping her tears away with a clean tissue. She looked down at her hands before forming a small smile on her face.
“Yeah, you’re right Lisanna.”
——
You were awake.
It had been two days since you found out about Laxus and the Thunder Legion’s demise. You were now awake and you barely spoke to anyone, using mostly nods and head shakes to communicate to people. Mira was the only one who would hear you speak real words. But the most she would get to hear you say is “no’s” and “yes”. The only time people would hear you speak full words and sentences is when you would talk to Laxus. He obviously couldn’t respond but you couldn’t help it. You knew he was mostly listening. At least you hoped. 
You refused to leave Laxus’s side, Mira had to bring you clothes from your home and you ate and slept in the guild. In the empty infirmary beds. No matter what, you refused to leave his side, no matter what people tried to tell you. A plus to this was that Porlyusica could do checkups on you. She made sure that the baby was growing and nothing was hindering their development. However she, and the other have been trying to convince you to take a break from the guild. Although you couldn’t go out and help people with the search, they wanted you to at least take a walk outside of the guild. 
“You can’t keep staying here Y/n, it’s not good for the baby,” Mira tried to convince you to take a walk but you wouldn’t budge. 
You were sitting by Laxus’ side, as you’ve always been, holding his hand and just looking at him. You were wearing a pair of comfy sweatpants and a matching sweatshirt. Your hair was dry and crunchy to the touch. You had not moisturized it for days, still pulled up in the same puff you had a couple of days ago. 
“How about you take a small walk, I can convince Levy to take over for me and I walk with you?”
Nothing. Not a word from you. You were still silent, sitting by Laxus’ side and holding his hand, slowly stroking it. Your eyes were lifeless, eyes heavy with bags. 
“Y/n, I know you're worried, but please think about what Laxus would want. He would want you to take care of yourself, take care of your baby. And staying like this isn’t good, you need a breath of fresh air. Please if not for me, for the baby then?”
You took a deep breath and leaned back, still holding his hand. 
“Mira is right, your baby comes before you now. Take some time outside, before you come back to this dreary place,” Porlyusica then said, looking at some herbs and oils in glass beakers. 
Mira came up and grabbed you by the shoulders, “please just for five minutes, and then you can come back inside, okay?”
You sighed, glanced at her before looking at your lover, who was currently fighting for his life right now. You looked at him with longing, to see him wake up, to see his reaction when he learns of your state. You caressed his face, thumbing over his cheek before slowly sliding your hand off of his face. You looked back at Mira and nodded your head, sliding your chair back. You got up and followed Mira outside, ignoring the members who were running around, currently on the mission to find the former council members, hopeful to find the ones connected to FACE. 
Mira kept you updated about the guild at times.
The two of you stepped outside and took in the cool air slightly blowing in your faces. You took a deep breath as you began to rock back and forth. You crossed your arms together and rubbed them up your biceps to gain some warmth in your palms. 
“See, don’t you at least feel a bit better, more air in your lungs at least?”
You said nothing, just continued to look out into the Magnolia distance. Squinting your eyes, you could see the old Island-8 restaurant, and the construction workers beginning the new building. You felt a lump in your throat as you looked on, before taking a deep breath and rolling your shoulders back, feeling the joints in your backbones crack. 
“Y/n?”
You felt a force slightly push you at your shoulders, pulling you out of your headspace. You jumped a little before turning around looking at your friend, who looked at you with even more worry. You gave her a small smile as she grabbed your shoulder, joining you in looking at your home city. 
“You know he’s gonna pull through, so please don’t stress yourself out,” Mira said, laying her head on top of your shoulder. 
You let out a small breath throughout your nose before reaching out to place one hand on her head and the other one in your slightly protruding abdomen. The two of you just stood there for a while, taking in all the fresh air you could before someone called out to the both of you. 
The two of you glanced at each other before looking at Warren, who was sweating and panting like a dog in need of water. 
“Mira! We need you!”
Mira let go of you but looked back at you, eyes swimming with unspoken unconcern. You smiled and gestured for her to go. 
“Go,” you whispered, nodding your head towards Warren, “go find the council members.”
She smiled before following Warren into the guildhall. Yous sighed before turning back, staring at the horizon once more. The cool breeze  You smiled to yourself, the first real smile you’ve felt in days. 
“Laxus would love how this day looks…”
----
You were disoriented, the confusion caused your stomach to start to flip on itself. The baby definitely didn’t like the ride, no matter how smooth Carla tried to make it. You groaned as you tried to push yourself up from… the rock? You glanced around, only to find yourself in an unfamiliar place. You looked down to find yourself, surrounded by the Thunder Legion and Old Man Yajima, who was also laying on the ground, still unconscious. You gasped and stood up as quick as you could without upsetting your stomach and your baby anymore. The wind around you was blowing all around you, as in the distance, you could see a large building in the distance. You took a couple of small steps, squinting your eyes as you got a better look at the emblem sitting front and center of the castle. 
Tartarus. 
You gasped as you looked around to find your guildmates appearing all around you, coming from Cana’s cards. That’s when the final moments came back to you, you were sitting inside Laxus, holding his hand as Porlyusica administered something to help ease his pain. That’s when the door slammed open and you turned to find Cana running inside. Before she could explain herself, she had already placed all of you in the cards. She then handed them to the three exceeds, putting herself in a card as well, right before the whole guild hall blew up. Cana saved the entire guild’s lives just in time. 
“CHAAAAARGE!!!”
You quickly looked up, seeing an army of Tartarus soldiers, headed straight for you and your entire guild
“Y/n!” 
You turned around to see Cana looking back at you, holding her cards as she began to fight off the soldiers.
“You and the wounded get a safer place, you can’t fight in your condition!” She said, glancing down at your slightly protruding abdomen. 
You looked down at yourself before looking back at Cana, who was waiting for you to move. You just shook your head at her concern before cracking your neck. As you did that, the clouds above began to move as your eyes began to glow white. Your fingers twitched with bright, blue-white lightning, the most powerful type that you can control. The guild and even the soldiers glanced up at the changes in the weather, The wind began to blow all around, centering around you. You raised your hands high as thunder sounded off in the sky. 
“Thunder Clap!” You yelled, bringing your hands together in front of you in a swift motion. 
The loud clap echoed into a large soundwave which knocked down all the incoming soldiers that were closing in.  You turned your head and smirked at Cana, who just smirked back at you. You could feel Prolysica’s disappointment glaring right at your back but you couldn't sit back. Not when your entire guild was giving everything to save the kingdom and magic in this world.
“I think we’ll be just fine Cana, worry about getting into their guildhall!” You yelled, before summoning a bout of lightning from the skies to take on some more soldiers. 
She nodded at you before charging ahead, taking down more soldiers as she went. You took a deep breath before looking at the oncoming soldiers. Your eyes went white once more before as you took a crouching stance, lighting appearing at your fingers. 
“Let’s do this,” you whispered to yourself. 
You knew you couldn’t go all out, so you needed to take out as many as you can and save enough energy in case you needed to move the Thunder Legion and Old Man Yajima. 
---
You collapsed to the ground, breathing heavily. You could hear Porlyusica exclaim, running over to you. Your magic power was greatly reduced since you have another lifeform feeding off of you. So you couldn't hold your own in a battle as long as you could anymore. After Tartarus activated Alegria, and someone somehow found a way to let you guys go. You immediately found yourselves surrounded by soldiers, and you were the only functioning wizard for miles, everyone getting separated in the rubble. So you had to fight them off, and you were already tired from the previous fight.
“You pushed yourself too hard! Now, look at you!” She turned you to your back, using her stethoscope and using her hand to feel around your abdomen. 
You could the ground rumble under you, the tiny stones jumping up and down. You turn your head to find even more soldiers headed your way. You tried to push Prolyuisca away from you, you had to keep fighting. But as soon as you did that, you could feel something cramp up painfully in your lower abdomen. The grip there, caused you to gasp painfully and lay back down, curling yourself into a fetal position. You pushed your coils out of your face as you glanced at the incoming soldiers, they were getting closer and closer. 
You took another deep breath and tried to sit up but this time, Porlyusica pushed you back down. 
“Lay back down! You pushed yourself too hard and now you baby could be in danger!”
“They’re coming, and we don’t have an offensive wizard anywhere around us! I have to fight through it!”
The pain only intensified every time you tried to move, your efforts going for naught. You could feel tears fall down your eyes, God was this it? You had no idea where your guild was, the entire Tartaros castle laid to rubble, and you couldn't get up anymore without endangering you and your unborn baby. 
That’s when you heard it. 
Lightning. 
The both of you glanced up, to where the soldiers were coming to only find them all taken down in one fell swoop, struck by yellow lighting. Once the smoke cleared, only one man was standing. 
Your man. 
 You gasped, feeling tears of happiness come to your waterline. He was shirtless, and you could see his body sweating even more than usual. He then turned his body halfway, looking down at you and Porlyusica. He just gave you his signature smirk before facing forward once more. 
“Take care of her. She stressed her and the little one too much.”
And with that, and a stroke of lightning from the sky, Laxus was gone. 
“LAXUS!!”
And that was the last thing you said before fainting from all the fighting and stress. 
---
You took a deep breath, smelling antiseptic and disinfectant. A hospital? Being your first thoughts, shifting about slightly. You could feel a thin blanket on top of you as you slowly opened your eyes, before squinting due to the bright lights above you. 
Yep, definitely a hospital. You thought. 
You took another deep breath before pushing yourself up, still feeling some soreness from the battle. Once you were setting up, you tensed up slightly as you heard a noise right beside you. A snore. You glanced to your left, before melting at the sight before you. 
Laxus was sitting right beside you, looking so much healthier than the last time you saw him. The color in his skin was back., which means that while you were asleep, Porlyusica must have gotten the blood to make the antidote. Currently, he was sitting in a hospital chair, which was tiny by the way so his very large body was stuck cramped in it. The sight was almost comical to you but the thought and gesture caused you to smile sweetly. You reached over to him, before taking his hand, stroking over his knuckles with your thumb. As you did that, you could hear him jump in his sleep, his snores going a higher octave for a moment before his own eyes began to open slowly. 
You smiled at him, “Morning sleepyhead,” you teased. 
His eyes widened. Your voice pulled him out of his sleepiness as he realized you were awake. He jumped out of his seat and wrapped his large arms around you, placing his head in your neck. You giggled at his actions before hugging him back, laying your head on his shoulder, taking a long whiff of his cologne. The two of you stayed like that for a long time, just staying there hugging each other. You could feel tears falling from your eyes, starting to make a damp spot on his shirt. You sniffled a couple of times, you had him back. You had your Laxus back and he was okay. 
“God I was so worried about you,” you choked on the lump in your throat, tightening the grip around his neck. 
You could hear him chuckle, “funny, I was gonna say the same thing about you, well the both of you.”
You could feel his arms slide down your back before going around your waist, his hand landing on your abdomen. You smiled at his actions, before moving your hand on top of his. With his other hand, he scooped you under your legs. He picked youtube and placed you on top of his lap, still holding you close to his body. You then leaned against his chest, feeling his heartbeat out of his chest. Both of your hands are still on top of your abdomen. 
“I’m pregnant.”
“I know. I heard everything you said.”
You smiled sadly, “I had a better way to tell you.”
You played around with the buttons on his shirt absentmindedly, more focused on the way he took a deep breath once you said that. 
“Is that so? Tell me about it.”
“Well, first I was gonna cook this big ass dinner…”
And the two of you stayed like that, relishing in each other’s touch until the Thunder Legion came to visit you. From there, the five of you made plans for your next move. Where to go, what you would do next.

Bravery Comes In Many Forms
Summary: Some new guy in the guild decides to pick a fight with Laxus in an attempt to win Reader from him. Gajeel gets in on the action when the guy decides to disrespect Reader.
TW/CW: Laxus Dreyar x Female!Reader. An unnamed new to the guild character is pretty rude and disrespectful. None that I can think of other than that.
Requested? Yes, a lovely Anon said, “Hey! if you don't mind can i get a Laxus x reader(preferably female but it can be gn) it can be anything angst, fluff, it really doesn't matter, THANKS SO MUCH”
Word Count: 1,300
A/N: So, I pulled a few prompts for this one bc I don’t really have any other ideas stored up lol, hope you don’t mind. I hope you enjoy the read! Love to all!
Prompts: “Where you from?” “Here and there.” “What do you do?” “This and that.” “You ever-” “Now and then.” “Boy you’re just full of information.”     Person A getting really annoyed with their tangled headphones and Person B just taking them off them and doing it for them.     “Do you need a hand?” “Does it look like I need your help?” “Do you really want me to answer that or would you like to maintain plausible deniability for later?” Dialogue prompts are bolded.
Tumblr media
As I make my way into the Guild Hall, many of my new friends say hello or wave. I’m so happy that I’ve found Fairy Tail and was allowed to join. It’s only been a few weeks and I already feel at home. Everyone is so welcoming and kind and honestly, the rowdiest bunch of mages I’ve ever seen but that makes it fun and exciting.
I make my way over to the bar and take a seat on a stool next to a very handsome gentleman in a large coat with fur around the collar. I order a drink from Mira and then turn to him to strike up a friendly conversation, “Hey big guy, where you from?”
He gives me the side-eye before rolling his eyes, “Here and there.”
Sensing a challenge, I decide to play his game, “What do you do around here?”
“This and that,” comes another vague answer.
I’m determined to get more than just a short vague answer so I continue, “You ever-”
“Now and then,” he says before I can finish my question.
This draws a chuckle out of me, “Boy, you’re just full of information.” Mira drops off my drink and giggles at my comment before heading off to help another guild member.
He shrugs so I pull out my earbuds and decide to listen to music while I wait him out. Unfortunately, my earbuds are yet again tangled from being in my pocket. I’m thoroughly surprised I didn’t lose them on my last job. I huff as I struggle to get them untangled which draws the mysterious man’s attention toward me. He raises an eyebrow, “Do you need a hand?”
I tilt my head at him, “Oh now I get a full sentence,” I look back down at my earbuds and return to untangling them, “Does it look like I need your help?”
“Do you really want me to answer that or would you like to maintain plausible deniability for later?” he responds. I ignore him and continue my work but after a moment of my frustrated tugging at them, he gently pulls them from my hands, “You’re going to break them if you keep that up.” Seconds later, he has them completely untangled and neat. After handing them back to me he pulls out his own headphones and places them over his ears. I mumble a thanks and then put my earbuds in and press play on my music. Little did I know, I had just had my first interaction with Laxus Dreyar, one of the strongest members of the guild and Master Makarov’s grandson.
A few months pass by of small interactions with the lightning dragon slayer. During one of said interactions, I finally learn his name. He seemed shocked when I didn’t cower in fear. I’ve never be known to fear things that I probably should. Looking back, I wonder if that’s why he found an interest in me. I obviously respect him for the power that he holds but I never fear him.
One day, I'm sitting at one of the tables in the guild hall with my back turned to the table as I talk to Levy, with Gajeel at her side as always, about her most recent favorite book. Suddenly, someone takes a seat beside me, honestly too close for comfort. I scoot away from this newcomer, he had just joined the guild yesterday, in hope that he’ll get the hint and keep his distance. Before the guy can scoot closer, I hear and feel boots stomping on the table behind me before someone drops to sit on the table with their feet propped on the seat and their legs to either side of me.
Looking back, I find my best friend recently made boyfriend Laxus sitting there with a very pissed-off look on his face. However, he isn’t looking at me. He’s looking at the mage sitting beside me who has now squared up and seems rather annoyed. The annoyance is clear in his tone when he speaks up, “Hey pal, can’t you see I’m trying to make a move here. Back the fuck off.”
Now, even Levy and Gajeel are pissed at this man’s audacity. Gajeel looks like he’s about to iron club this guy into the next century. Levy seems to be barely holding him back. That being said, Laxus doesn’t need their help. He leans forward and throws his arm around my shoulders, “Moves have already been made here. Leave.”
“How about I fight you for her?” the, I have to say it, idiot challenges.
“Lax-,” I mumble placing a hand on his arm around my shoulders in hopes of halting him, “He doesn’t know what he’s getting into. He just joined yesterday.”
“You’re kidding me right?” Laxus grumbles, “You just joined yesterday and you’re already hitting up every woman you come across? I just saw you trying to hit on Cana and Mira said you hit on her this morning.”
The newbie shrugs, “What’s the point in joining a powerful guild if I don’t at least try to get a girlfriend out of the deal. Now, are you going to fight me or not?”
Levy and I visibly tense up at his rudeness. I stand, shrugging off Laxus’s arm as I do, “How about you fight me instead?”
“Tch, like you could take me in a fight. Sit back down girly the big boys are talking,” he answers. Now Laxus stands and, with Gajeel close behind, moves to stand between me and the newbie. Levy jumps up to my side to pull me away toward the bar before we get caught in the crossfire.
From our new seats at the bar with Mira and Cana, we can hear Gajeel say, “You just joined and you’ve already gone and pissed off not one but two Dragon Slayers.”
Laxus chuckles, “I’m willing to bet that if Natsu hears there’s a fight he’ll join. He also doesn’t appreciate rude assholes who objectify women.”
“Good point. So, do you really want to fight three Dragon Slayers?” Gajeel asks the newbie.
In an attempt to make himself seem bigger and stronger, the newbie straightens up and holds his head high, “Bring it.”
For a moment, it seems like Laxus is contemplating something. I know he can take this guy down with a single lightning strike but as he nudges Gajeel and says, “You take the first move,” I can tell he’s decided to let his best friend join in on the fun.
“I wonder if this guy realizes that those two could easily take him down in a good old fistfight,” Cana mumbles before taking a sip of her keg.
Mira laughs, “That’s true. They could just shove the guy and he’d be down for the count.” Levy and I are silent as we watch out boyfriends practically bat this guy around like a couple of cats with a ball of yarn. It doesn’t take long for this guy to drop to his knees and forfeit. Thankfully ending the fight before Natsu gets wind of it. As Laxus and Gajeel make their way over to us, leaving the guy to wallow in his defeat, they both have huge grins on their faces.
Gajeel drops onto a stool beside Levy, “I don’t think that guy is gonna be picking any more fights around here for a while.”
Laxus scoffs as he takes a seat beside me, “Good, the idiot needed to be put in his place.” We all laugh and order a round of drinks. Even though I could’ve fought that guy myself, it feels good to have someone to protect me.
I place my chin on Laxus’s shoulder and whisper in his ear, “Thank you, Sparky.”
He kisses my forehead, “Anytime, babe.”

note: is it really an x reader if they won't end up together in some way shape or form? 乁| ・ 〰 ・ |ㄏ
Tumblr media
Their eyes wandered the sky, the stars sequin silver color as it twinkles and dazzles in the midnight sky. It looked like scattered moondust in the sky.
“Can't sleep?” you heard a voice behind you asked. You didn't even bother looking knowing it was Laxus.
“You think I get sleep?” you ask him with sarcasm laced in your tone. You both laughed and he looked up at you. You're seated on a tree branch with your feet swaying back and forth.
“Mind if I take a seat?” He asked, walking near you.
“Not at all” and so he climbed up next to you. “Why are you here anyways, Mira might be looking for you” you said looking at the stars once again.
“No its fine, she's resting”
“Yeah she must be tired”
“Now I should be asking you the same question, what are you doing here late at night? ”
“I just couldn't sleep and you know late night thoughts..” you answered his question knowing that it had multiple meanings behind it.
Both of you talked and admired the stars for a little while till you spotted a shooting star.
“y/n look” he pointed at the shooting star "make a wish" and so you did.
“What did you wish for?” he asked jokingly. He knew you believed the «if I told you it won't come true» thing, so when you told him it was kinda surprising.
“For the man I love to be happy..” you said, not specifying any name just so he wouldn't know it was him.
You took a liking for the Lightning Dragon Slayer so when you found out that Mira and him were dating, it devastated you. Mira is one of your dearest friends but you'll never take their happiness away for our own.
“Why not ask for him to love you back?”
“Laxus— He has a girlfriend and I'm not cruel, I respect their relationship and if I did he would only love me because of my wish. I don't want our love to be forced..”
“Even if he's happy with someone else?” he asked, looking at you from the corner of his eye.
“Even if he is with someone else and happy with someone else.. Even if it was my best friend...”

Running Into the Ex
Tumblr media
"My ex is over there. Can you kiss me?"
pairing-> Sting Eucliffe x gn! reader word count-> 1.2K+ warnings-> profanity, but mostly PG 13 :) a/n-> I am about at season 4 of watching fairy tail and am using the wiki to stock up on knowledge so please don't @me for anything being incredibly wrong
                                                  ~5 Years Ago~    Growing up was rough in the Aquila Tribe. You trained daily with La Sirene, learning your water dragon slayer magic, until that one fateful day.    Nidhoggr showed up, slaying everyone you knew. You had trained for this day, but when the time came to prove yourself, you got scared and ran into the woods. With the tears brimming at your eyes, you could hardly see. In fact, your vision was so blurry that you ran into a blonde man.    Due to the adrenaline running through your veins, the force you rammed into him with was enough to knock him off his feet.    "Sorry about that," you said, rubbing the back of your head.    "It's fine," he replied, brushing the dirt off his pants and standing up. "but what the hell happened over there? And who are you?"    "My name is (y/n), and-" you began to choke up, memories of what had just happened flooding back into your mind. "My... my family." You couldn't hold it in anymore, the tears poured down your cheeks.    He immediately pulled you closer. "Shhh (y/n) it's going to be okay," he said, wrapping his muscular arms around your back. "I'm gonna take you to somewhere safe. My grandfather is the guild master several miles north of here. We will help you, I promise."    With those words, several huge sobs escaped your lips. Later that day, you discovered that the person who was there for you in the woods was none other than Laxus Dreyar.                                                         ~1 year ago~     Within the next year, you two were an item, but you still didn't feel 100% at home in the guild. The relationship was great... until he got excommunicated.    You decided to stay at fairy tail for the time being, even though you weren't an official member. Eventually, though, everyone in the guild began to remind you of little bits of Laxus and you couldn't take it.    It was a rainy day when you ran to his doorstep. You rapped your knuckles on the door softly, waiting for the blonde to answer and invite you in.    "Hey (y/n), I was wondering when you were gonna come see me. Hell, I started thinking about moving on. Distance only ever hurts relationships, but I knew you would pick me over the guild. I saved you after all. Come on in."    "Actually Laxus, I think I'm going to stay out here. I like the rain, so long as there isn't any lightning. You started to move on? I was never going to pick you. You've really become a dick. It's over. I don't want to see you, or anyone else in the guild ever again." With that, you turned away from him and began to run.    Before you could make it too far down the street, a bolt of lightning hit the ground a few feet in front of you. "(Y/n) wait!" Laxus was now approaching you.    "I just told you, it's over. Accept it and move on. You were already thinking about it anyway," you retorted, pivoting to direct your body towards your apartment. Before you could get far, he grabbed your arm.    "Let go of me!" you screamed, sending a wave of water directly up his nose. He let go, coughing up water. Luckily this gave you the chance to escape, and your place was only a few blocks away.    Once you reached the door, tears of frustration burned as they streamed down your face. You haven't used your magic since the day you lost your tribe, and you were angrier than ever for using it against someone who means nothing to you. You began to pack all of your belongings into a duffel bag, leaving a note for the landlord, and a second for the guild. Finally satisfied with both, you picked up your bag and left your humble abode, kissing the building, the streets, the city goodbye.
                                                    ~Present Day~    You have been searching for a new guild to join for what seemed like a year now. Picking up odd jobs here and there was enough to cover the bare necessities.    Luckily, you had finished a big task today and were rewarded well. You decided to go to the bar to celebrate. As you entered the door, you made eye contact with none other than Laxus.    You rolled your eyes, determined to not let his presence bother you. You are here to reward yourself and have fun. Quickly making your way to the bar, you noticed a very attractive man sitting next to the only open seat. He had blonde hair and striking dark blue eyes.    Sitting down, you got the attention of the bartender. "Can I get three yuzushu on the rocks please?" you asked sweetly.    "Are those for a group of friends, or are you just having a rough day?" The blonde stranger asked.    "Rough day I guess..." you mumbled, chugging the first one as soon as it was set in front of you.    Upon receiving the second one, you slid it over to the attractive male. "Thanks. The name's Sting. And you?"    "(y/n)," you said as the third drink was set down. "I promise I'm not normally like this, it's just-"    "You don't need to explain yourself. It's a bar. We're all here to drink." He replied, flashing his beautiful smile before you had the chance to say more.    "That guild mark... You're from Sabertooth right?" you asked, glancing at the white stamp on his left shoulder.    "Good eye. Normally I'd drink at the guildhall, but I had a feeling I should be here for some reason tonight. Guess I know why now." He said, visibly looking you up and down.    Blushing, you turned back to your drink and downed a third of it, tasting the fruit. "I-is it true that this is karaoke night?" you asked, trying to change the subject before you made a fool of yourself.    "Yes it is, and it looks like the first person is about to start. Wanna move closer?"    "As long as you dance with me!" you replied, picking up your drink and standing up.    The two of you made your way over to the couches by the stage. Setting your glass down, you turned to him. You haven't talked to anyone since Laxus romantically, and have only been in that one relationship. Should you make the first move? Rock music came over the speakers and Laxus began to sing into the mic.    "My ex is over there. Can you kiss me?" You asked before you could tell yourself that it was an unreasonable request. You had just met this man ten minutes ago, and now you were asking to kiss him? And what for? To make Laxus jealous? No. To show Laxus what he will never have.    Before you could take back what you said, his soft lips crashed into yours. A soft light illuminated his body, and there was an orb of water floating above you. You ran your hands through his soft hair and he grabbed your neck, pulling you closer. His tongue flicked against your lips, asking for entrance. You granted, easily giving into him. You could taste the yuzushu in his mouth, which only made you want him more. You fought for dominance, but he wasn't giving up. He pushed you onto the couch, and you slowed down the kiss, unable to breathe.    Pulling away, you realized there wasn't any more singing. Scanning the room, you heard the jingle of the door as it closed behind the person you will now never see again.

⁑ Warnings: Mentions to major wound and battle consequences. Deep Angst!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As fierce as she was, yet, she was still a woman - made of flesh and bones, blood running through her veins no matter how hot it was or how fast it could run.
Ivar knew she could die - Valhalla would claim both of them and he knew his queen wouldn't die other than fighting like the Valkyrie she was - yet, his heart was always skipping a beat whenever his eyes could see a sword too close to open the golden doors for her to go.
Always too soon...
Always too soon for him.
Sometimes, as they were preparing for battle and she was blessing her blade and shield before the bloodshed, Ivar would pray mutely, speaking to Odin himself, asking the Allfather to claim his life first.
Sometimes, as they were seeding the fields with the corpses of his enemies, Ivar would forget his prayers and think that pleasure would last forever. That they would fall together and take with them as many of his enemies they could.
Sometimes, Ivar would just stand there, in his chariot, watching as she was cleaning the field, covered in blood and mud, screaming like the rumble of thunder, echoing in fear inside his enemies' hearts as if Thor himself had smitten the ground and she had been born of Mjölnir's lightning bolt right in front of their eyes.
She was never vulnerable. Never different from that goddess of battle he fell in love with. Maybe that was the reason why Ivar was so afraid of seeing her so small over the bed they were used to sharing for so long.
His precious queen had been wounded three days ago and for three days she had slept after being cared for his healers under his most nervous screams and angriest orders.
Now, that frenzy was over, and nothing but the anguish has lasted in his heart, eating him inside, closing his throat. Unlike her, Ivar wasn't able to sleep. He couldn't close his eyes thinking she could have been gone the next morning. Instead, his eyes were deeply blued as he was constantly observing her, caring for her, ensuring his precious queen was still breathing in her peaceful sleep.
She didn't have moved a finger until that moment.
Ivar sat by her side once again, his fingers touching the bandages on her face, covering the eyes; slowly sliding down through her neck to touch her chest, also bandaged. The bastard had thrown something on her face to blind her and then, he used that single moment to push his sword into her flank right before Ivar himself had pulled him down and killed the bastard.
Ivar closed his eyes for a moment, swallowing dryly the memories of his precious queen, gasping for air, passing out on his hands before his men could take them away from that battlefield.
The sound of her voice in a moan of pain woke him up from those bad memories and Ivar opened his eyes to see her fingers touching the bandages on her face. She was awake, and bothered, of course.
"You must remain using them, my love," he said, touching her fingers, taking them out of her face gently.
"Ivar..." she muttered, recognizing him.
Her free hand gently touching the bandages in her chest, feeling herself, remembering slowly.
"How long am I sleeping?"
"Three days," Ivar answered, keeping her hand resting over his, softly caressing her palm with his thumb.
She sighed.
"My body is sore."
Ivar gently helped his beloved queen to sit, placing the pillows to support her back and sitting closer to her. The silence between them, solid like a wall that she broke with words he didn't want to hear.
"What did they say, Ivar?"
He knew what was she asking about.
Her last words before she passed out in his arms. Her desperate words that were still burning him inside with the memory of that horribly burned wound in her face, marking her skin with a scar he knew would be there probably forever.
»"I can’t see anything!"«
"Ivar," she insisted, holding his hand, waking his mind up one more time from those memories haunting his thoughts.
"They said nothing," he lied.
And she knew he was lying. And he knew she knew.
Yet, he insisted.
"It's too soon to say anything."
"Ivar," she called up his attention as he continued.
"They don't know what he threw on your face..."
"Ivar!" she sounded harsher.
And so sounded his voice.
»"Nothing is wrong with you!"« Ivar almost yelled.
The silence in her voice saying more than a thousand words could say.
After a moment, he could feel her fingers touching his ungloved hand, caressing the calloused skin that tender way only her ever had to touch him, bringing tears to his eyes that she couldn't see.
Tears she didn't need to see to know they were there.
"It doesn't matter," Ivar's voice broke the silence. "The scar, the wounds... It doesn't matter if you're blind or if you'll ever see me again, Y/N. It doesn't matter!" he insisted, louder. "I love you, you're my queen and it won't change. Nothing will change. There is nothing wrong."
As fierce as he was, yet, he was still a man - made of flesh and bones, blood running through his veins no matter how hot it was or how fast it could run.
She knew he could die. And sometimes, as they were preparing for battle and she was blessing her blade and shield before the bloodshed, she would pray mutely, speaking to Odin himself, asking the Allfather to claim his life first.
Because she knew, for him, it would be unbearable to lose her. She knew, for his heart, the suffering would be infinite. Ivar had lost so many things in his life... She would ask the Allfather to open the golden doors for her precious king so she could follow him and find his smiles once again.
And maybe that was her answer: if she was really blind, she wouldn't be able to fight any longer. And Ivar would reach the halls of the gods before her for sure.
Her gentle fingers rose up in the air, searching until finding his wet cheeks, caressing it and wiping his tears without a single word about them. A smile on her lips even thou there was sadness into her heart.
"You're right. It's too soon to say anything... And... Nothing will change, my love," her voice sounded soft as Ivar leaned his face into her caresses. "I love you, I'm your queen. I'm yours, my heart. Nothing will ever change this in my heart."
Ivar leaned forward, touching their foreheads, softly kissing her lips, trying to keep the tender touch to avoid hurting his precious queen.
His mind mutely asking the gods for the light of her eyes.
His heart sure of his love even if her flame has to be gone.
Blind or not, scarred or not, his precious Y/N was his. And he was hers.
Nothing would change this in his heart.

Laxus x reader
(Y/n P.O.V~)
I have been in fairytail for a little over three years now. I absolutely love everyone in the guild but there is one person who has particularly caught my eye. His name is Laxus Dreyar, the lightning dragon slayer.
Everyone calls me crazy for loving someone like him but I couldn’t care less. Sure, he’s always insulting me and making snarky remarks but…yah…I guess I don’t know why I like him either…but that’s irrelevant.
The point is I like him. My new problem is that I’m starting to reach the point of hopelessness. The more he ignores me the more discouraged I get. Who wouldn’t though?
Imagine the person you like degrading you each and every day and no matter how hard you try you know, you’ll never be god enough. They’ll never return your affection and you are stuck in a unrequited love until you can let go.
Well that’s the hell I live each day. I am just about over it. As much as I love Laxus, I don’t know how much more my heart can handle. I decided to bake him some homemade cookies since baking has always been a hobby (A/N: I almost typed Hobi…this is not a BTS story…) of mine.
I walk into the guild with a smile on my face. As always, everything is lively and I can’t help the warm feeling I get when I see my family. I casually walk up to the top floor and spot the tall blonde male I have my sights set on.
I approach him and clear my throat to get his attention. He turns to me a not so pleased look spreads his features. “Ugh, it’s you. What do you want.” My nerve waver slightly at his tone but I don’t let it stop me.
“Good morning Laxus, I baked you some cookies!” I state with a bright smile as I present him the bag of sweets. He smirks and lets out a cynical laugh. “As if I’d accept something from the likes of you. You disgust me. You’re pathetic and weak. You don’t deserve to be a member of the fairytail guild.” He spoke with a degrading tone. I look down and my chest tightens.
My fists are clenched and I bit my lip to fight the tears. I taste the metallic flavour of my own blood from my bitten lip and I lose my composure. The tears break loose but I refuse to raise my head.
“For so many years I have tried to get you to accept me. I’ve tried my damn hardest to get you to notice me but all I get is ridicule and disgusted tones. Being called ugly, fat, stupid, annoying, weak, obnoxious, and so much more.” I pause and take a shaky breath.
“For so many years I’ve loved you but it’s clear I will never get the affection I so desire. It’s clear all I am to you is a pest. It’s clear you hate me and want me gone so you know what? You win. You’ve got what you want. I’m broken. I give up. I’ll leave you alone from now on, I’m sorry for all the trouble I’ve caused.” With that, I set the bag of sweets at his feet and turn away. I walk out of the guild, my body shaking with sobs as I head to my home.
3rd Person P. O. V. ~
Laxus sits at the table with a shocked expression. Never had he though that would be her reaction. (Y/n) had always been a ball of sunshine, and she was always following him around with admiration encasing her entire being.
She couldn’t even hurt a fly so lashing out was the last thing to expect from her. He never meant for any of this to happen. If he was to be honest, he’d always had a bit of a crush on (y/n). He was just bad a showing his emotions so whenever she came around, he would get flustered and make a rude comment.
He never meant it. He’s always thought she was beautiful and amazing. He never wanted to hurt her but that’s exactly what he just did, and he knew he had to make things right…
(Y/n) P. O. V. ~
I sat on the bed in my apartment with tear stained cheeks. My heart was heavy and shattered. The one I love just broke me like glass thrown to pavement. I felt hallow.
I stared blankly at my wall when a pounding sounded from my door. Whoever it was really had horrible timing. I do not want to social at the moment. But I can’t just leave them standing outside.
I rise and head to the door, when I open it I nearly flew back. There stood Laxus. The one who just shattered my entire soul. “What? Here to break me some more. Hate to burst your bubble but that’s not really possible.” I spoke with a cold voice, unforgiving.
I can see an emotion in his eyes but I can’t quite place what, guilt perhaps? “No..(y/n)…I never meant to hurt you. I’m just bad at…emotions. I can’t deal with people crying, I don’t know how to respond to kindness, and I sure as hell don’t know what to do when I like someone. That’s why I’m like this, I like you (y/n).” He spoke with sincerity, something quite rare for him.
“Laxus…are you being serious right now?” He nods his head in response and tears once again sting my eyes, this time of happiness. “Laxus, I like you too. I really do.” He lets out a small smile and pulls me into his strong arms.
“I’m sorry for the way I’ve treated you. I promise I’ll be better but please, go out with me.” He whispers to me, stroking my hair. “Yes…” I sigh out, finally feeling some happiness. This day might have started bad but now? It couldn’t be better.

Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief - a playlist
Tumblr media
Writing and media play with one another constantly, and have done so since the first narrative. Music is as integral a part of human history as storytelling, which can be witnessed through poetry, limericks, epics, and ballads.  In modern day, readers often wonder what sort of music and film the characters in their favorite novels might read - does Harry Potter like The Beatles? Would Batman listen to Green Day? Personally, I make a playlist when I’m writing a novel to help myself get in the right headspace. This list touches on that train of thought, with each song relating to how I feel Percy would express himself through music.
Spotify Link: here
I COME FROM THE WATER by Toadies Percy Jackson is, first and foremost, one of the funniest narrators of any story that I’ve read. His wit- or rather, the wit of Rick Riordan - is what makes The Lightning Thief so enjoyable for young readers. “I Come from the Water,” while energetic in sound, is full of humor. The song itself is about evolution, but I like to think that this is a bit how Percy feels when he has conversations with fish.
UNSTEADY by X Ambassadors Taking a dramatic emotional turn, “Unsteady” is a heartbroken song about loneliness and instability. The singer longs for help from his loved ones, just as Percy longs for a sign from his father. Having related deeply to this song in my own life, I thought it fitting for the scenes wherein Percy tries to fit in at camp half-blood while reconciling with the loss of his mother: “Mama, come here/Approach, appear/Daddy, I'm alone/'Cause this house don't feel like home”
GLADIATOR by Zayde Wølf Upon first hearing this song I immediately thought of the fanmix assignment, as the musicality and lyrics reminded me distinctly of Percy’s righteous anger. Aside from the indignation he feels at being given his quest despite his innocence, the lyrics of the song can be linked to specific parts of his story: “I had to keep on reaching up 'cause it was my time/To tear down the kingdom and call out the liars” This could be tied to Percy’s actions later in the series, namely his request that the gods do a better job of communication with their children, but it also captures his anger towards them regarding the lies about his alleged theft. This is again mentioned in the line “Picked a fight with the gods I'm the giant slayer,” which also reminds me of his fight against various giants and cyclops throughout the series. “Caught in a crossfire. Trouble at sea” Obviously, this made me think of Percy’s father, Poseidon, and the “crossfire” between Poseidon and Zeus. “Have you ever shaken hands with the devil in the night?” Simply put, this line makes me think of Percy’s deal with Hades after reaching the underworld.
CHOSEN ONE by Valley of Wolves This song is not as profound lyrically, as it’s quite repetitive, but all in all it captures the essence of Percy’s dilemma with his Prophecy. While his fate was determined long ago, he focuses not on what the end result is “supposed” to be. Instead he keeps up his determination, knowing he will do whatever it takes to finish the quest and save his mother.
THE MINOTAUR’S SONG by The Incredible String Band The Lightning Thief is famous in part due to Rick Riordan’s use of sarcasm and humor in his writing via the narration by Percy, as mentioned in song #1. “The Minotaur’s Song” captures this humor as well, with a series of bull-related puns and the iconic use of mooing for background vocals. On the other hand, the lyrics provide a unique glimpse of the minotaur’s perspective, as he fights an unnamed enemy who (he claims) is as evil as he is. While readers may not think of Percy Jackson as evil, certainly the monsters he slays throughout the novel would disagree.
PLANET HELL by Nightwish Like most of my song choices, this track struck me through its lyrics. I think of this as a sort of ballad from Hades as he watches the trio enter his realm on their quest. To me, the best examples of this are the following lines:  “Denying the lying/A million children fighting/For lives in strife” and “You fool, you wanderer/You challenged the gods and lost.” One can relate these lines to Percy “lying” about having the lightning bolt, the millions of demigods who have fought for the Olympians throughout history, and Percy’s overall impertinence towards the gods.
SUMMERTIME by My Chemical Romance This song puts a twist on the idea of a summer romance, as the singer recalls his lover’s features by complimenting her “scraped up knees” and the “brick in [her] hand.” The lyrics and youthful undertones of the song reminded me of Percy’s relationship with Annabeth, which starts as a childhood crush resulting from his admiration of her as a cunning yet beautiful fighter.
RADIOACTIVE by Imagine Dragons Several of Imagine Dragons’ songs are fitting for the Percy Jackson series. Their music captures the angst and bitterness demigods often feel during times of war and loss, but also the themes of hope which Percy inspires in his friends (and vice versa). This particular song, Radioactive, gives an impression of extraoridinary power locked inside of the singer. This power, however, is harmful. Percy Jackson, being a son of the “Big Three,” is known for containing the power of the ocean. As the series is developed, we see him perform feats that are both magnificent and terrible. As a bonus, the music video for Radioactive features Alexandria Dedario, who plays Annabeth Chase in the film adaptations of our series.
HOW TO SAVE A LIFE by The Fray Ah, The Fray. One of my first times hearing this song was when I watched a Buffy the Vampire Slayer montage with How to Save a Life as the background music. Kid me was very moved. In relation to Percy Jackson, this song still works. It desbribes the loss of a friend, apparently at the fault of the singer, who feels he could have done more to prevent the unexplained tragedy. Percy Jackson feels this guilt several times throughout the series, starting with the capture of his mother and followed by the deaths of several friends: Bianca, Zoe, Ethan, Luke, and Charles to name a few.

The angel and the dragon slayer
Another Fairy tail story this time about Laxus
warnings: abuse, angst
reader x Laxus Dreyar
You groaned grabbing at your side, trying your best not to pass out at the pain coursing through your body. You were so close, but you were sure most of your broken bones were damaging a lot of you on the inside.
“You need to keep moving, come on, if you stop your dead, pass out and your dead” You kept repeating this to yourself every time the pain got too much, but you had to fight through it all. Soon you’d be in Magnolia and you’d be safe there, at least that’s what you hoped, they wouldn’t let you be taken away. You tried to laugh but it hurt too much, they would never try going near Magnolia in fear of Fairy Tail. You screamed collapsing to your knees as your sight started wavering.
“No goddamit, so close, so close” You said trying to use all your strength to stand up again, but you just fell down again. You were breathing heavily as tears started streaming down you face, this was as far as you could go. It was over, you heard a noise coming from behind you and screwed you eyes shut knowing now it was all over.
“Are you ok?” An unknown voice asked from behind
“Who are you?” You asked pulling your cloak round yourself as your only protection
“I’m Laxus, and you would be?” The voice inquired not seeming threatening just curious
“My names (y/n)” You said as your vision blurred “Laxus I don’t suppose you’re here to kill me, are you?”
“Why would I be (y/n)?” He asked sounding amused
“Because I’m about to pass out and I’d rather die than go back there” You said clenching your eyes shut as you tried to steady your breathing hoping you were now safe
“Go back where (y/n)?” Laxus asked confused
“I’m trying to get to Magnolia, preferably Fairy Tail, can you get me there?” You asked not caring for the questions you wouldn’t be awake much longer and you needed to know if you passed out now maybe this stranger could get you to safety or get you help
“Maybe I can, why?” He asked seriously, might have heard even a bit of anger
“Good” You said smiling as your body became light and all the pain had disappeared.
 “Hey” Laxus shouted at he walked towards the girl who had identified herself as (y/n), he grabbed on your shoulder turning you round to lie on your back and saw what you were escaping from
“Oh shit” He said feeling anger build up as he looked at your small frail body covered in bruises and saw the dislocated shoulder and the twisted ankle “Now I know why you were running”
He scooped you up into his arms, carrying you carefully as if you were delicate china and carried you over a hill which brought you out at Magnolia. You had been so close, but at least close enough to have found help you just didn’t know it had come in the form of the lightning dragon slayer. He walked through Magnolia with you wrapped in the cloak, everyone stopped to look at him carrying you unsure of which member of Fairy Tail had been hurt this time, only you weren’t Fairy Tail you were a worst guild. Laxus kicked open the guild doors, everyone turned to stare at him as he walked through the main hall.
“Where’s the old man?” Laxus asked ignoring everyone who asked about who you had
“What happened?” Makarov asked
“Not here” Laxus stated shaking his head knowing nobody else in the guild needed to see you in this vulnerable state
“Ok, there’s some spare rooms in the back, take her through there” Mira Jane said gently, something in Laxus’s eyes made no one ask anymore questions
Laxus walked through with Makarov at his back as he opened one of the rooms and deposited you on a bed more gently than anyone would think he’d have. He carefully removed the cloak to see the true extent of your injuries and so Makarov could correctly help you.
“Who did this?” Makarov said with rage
“I don’t know, her name’s (y/n), I found her on the road back into Magnolia she was trying to get here, she thought I was there to kill her” Laxus growled out as he saw how bad you really looked without the cloak, he was surprised you’d made it so far with all that damage
“She’s a wizard from Ghoul Spirit” Makarov said as he found the tattoo on you shoulder
“Dark guild” Laxus said “So are we turning her over to the council?”
“No” Makarov said shaking his head “Not in this state, she wanted to get here for a reason, she almost died to get here”
“Anything we can do to help her?” Laxus asked looking at your tiny frame all broken and beaten making his fists clench wanting to kill who done this to you
“Just wait for her to wake up, who knows how long that will be” Makarov said looking at Laxus with a sad smile at how he couldn’t take his eyes off you “She walked far in that state she’s stronger than she looks, should be no time” Makarov looked at the sad state you were in and knew what had upset Laxus to feel protective over you “Try get her to drink some water, she has nothing on her who knows when she last ate or drank anything” With that Makarov left you to watch over her.
Laxus carefully got you out your dirty clothes, running his hand over your bruised stomach from the broken ribs before covering you up with a duvet. Laxus lay down on the bed opposite watching over you till you woke up, praying you did so he could kill them.
 You groaned opening your eyes to darkness, you heard heavy breathing from somewhere else in the room. You turned to where the noise was coming from, but it was too dark, you brought your right hand up and hit your ring for light. You saw a guy lying in a bed across the room, he had golden hair and a lightning scar down his face, from the outlines on the covers showed he was quite tall and big. You looked about for your clothes to get out before anything happened, you tried to push yourself to sit up but the pain that had been subdued for so long hit you causing you to scream in agony. You lay back down twisting your fingers in the bed sheets, clenching your eyes shut trying to calm your breathing to stop the pain.
“You shouldn’t have tried to move, you’re not moving from that bed for a good while” The voice said, your breath caught as you recognised it
“Laxus? Here I was thinking I dreamed it up” (y/n) said trying to laugh flinching at the pain “How long have I been here?”
“You’re not the first girl to dream about me” He said with a smile as he came to sit in the seat by your bed, something told you he’d sat there a lot while you had been here “You’ve been here a week, was getting worried you’d never wake up”
“A week?” You asked shocked “Where am I?”
“Fairy Tail of course, you asked to be brought here” Laxus said raising an eyebrow, you lowered you gaze to his bare chest and saw the Fairy Tail insignia with some tribal design around it
“You were Fairy Tail, could have told me” (y/n) said smiling feeling safe for the first time in ages
“Didn’t know who you were” He said stroking a blonde hair away from your face “Who are you?”
“(y/n), I’ve told you” You said looking at him
“You were a part of a dark guild, why did you come here?” He asked as you saw the anger cross his face and flinched away from him before his face changed to sadness “Don’t be scared, no one will hurt you here, was it Ghoul Spirit that hurt you?”
“I know the dark guilds want to bring Fairy Tail down, I didn’t want to be apart of it, I tried to leave but no one leaves” You choked out feeling the fear come back up with the memories of how betrayed you were
“How did you escape?” He asked
“I used what little magic I had left after everything to knock them out, I ran so far as fast as I could its what happened to my ankle that was my own clumsy self” You said shaking your head feeling tears
“No one will hurt you here, you are safe” Laxus said gripping your hand
“Nowhere is safe, people hurt the ones they love” (y/n) said
“You knew they’d hurt you, didn’t you?” He asked confused
“Yes, I wanted to escape I told my boyfriend the plan” You said with a snort shaking your head “He was too faithful to the cause though to bring down the guilds”
“He told on you?” Laxus asked clenching his fists lowering his face so you never saw the rage that was coursing through him
“Yeah, to the master and I was beaten till I changed my mind on the plan on ever running away but I never changed my mind, I have no idea how long it went on for the abuse, I remember him coming down pleading with me just to join again every day he would” You said shaking you head hatred coursing through your body at him “I beat him up a lot while everyone was knocked out”
“(y/n) I promise you, on my life no harm is ever coming to you again” Laxus said as you turned and stared into his grey eyes and saw he meant what he said. You could see it all over his face in various emotions the anger, the sadness, and the protectiveness.
“Does anyone know I’m here?” You asked curiously
“People know someone’s here, but they don’t know who, only a select few have came through that door” He said “They won’t come here looking for you, they’d never risk it”
“I hope you’re right” You said as you stared at the ceiling remembering your room in Ghoul Spirit
The door cracked open making you and Laxus freeze.
“Mira Jane reported to me that a scream came from here” An old man walked in closing the door behind him
“She’s just woke up, I didn’t want her to be interrogated so soon” Laxus said glaring at the old man
“You’re the guild leader I’m assuming?” (y/n) asked “I’d sit up and shake hands with you but if I move, I will scream again��
“Don’t trouble yourself dear” He said as he stood beside Laxus “I’m Makarov the guild leader of Fairy Tail”
“Hello Makarov, I’m (y/n)” You said smiling at him, he seemed so nice compared to your guild leader “I’ve been talking to Laxus about everything, but I’d be happy to answer any questions you have”
“Why were you a part of the dark guild to start? You seem too nice to be there” Makarov said making you smile
“I was a wizard without a guild for a long time, I travelled around looking for one that fit me, but none did” You said smiling remembering how it began “Then I met another wizard we started dating and he was part of a guild so I joined so we could be together”
“He pulled you in then hurt you” Laxus said making you flinch but you nodded all the same
“Yes, after a while I realised what was happening, he was pulling away, I soon realised it was something they did to get members” You said shrugging your shoulders feeling tears come to your eyes for how stupid you had been to fall in love with him
“I’m sorry for everything you have gone through” Makarov said nodding his head “I’ll get some food brought to you, you must be very hungry, idiot Laxus must have forgot his basic manners before questioning you”
“Hey! I had to make sure she wasn’t dangerous” Laxus said shrugging as Makarov laughed walking out knowing he wasn’t as stupid as his grandson thought of him
“How long before I can move?” You asked Laxus
“Shouldn’t be much longer, most of the swelling has gone down, let’s focus on when it doesn’t hurt to sit up” He said watching you as you nodded before you remembered something
“Who took my clothes off?” You asked looking at him questioningly as his face went red
“I had to assess the damage” He mumbled not meeting your eyes, trying to forget what you looked like lying there in your underwear as he constantly was checking the damage on your body to make sure none of it had gotten worse
“You’ve seen me naked?” You said shocked as a girl with long silver hair walked in with a tray and placed it on the table at the door before nodding to you and walking out
“Not in a creepy way, I needed to know where was damaged and assess it healing” He said defensively “Now come on we’re going to try feed you”
He got up and lifted pillows from his bed and placed them at your head, before he put an arm round your shoulders helping you sit up and you groaned at the pain in your chest from your ribs and from lying in a bed for a week hadn’t helped either. Soon enough you were leaning against the wall with all the pillows at your back for support, you kept pulling the cover up not wanting him to see you in such a pitiful state anymore. You kept telling yourself it was because he saved you that you felt something for him, but whatever it was that made you feel the need not to look weak in front of the Golden-haired guy anymore. Laxus carried the tray over to you before placing it on your lap. It looked so nice it was soup, and the smell coming from it made your stomach growl. You couldn’t remember the last time you really ate, in lockdown at Ghoul Spirit meant you got nothing.
“Thank you” You said looking at him “I must have really been a bother on you and the guild for the past week, maybe another week and I can be out”
“Don’t push yourself, no one wants you to go till you’re ready especially if they come for you again” Laxus said smiling at you making your heart jump
“I’m fine honestly if you want to leave this dark room for a bit, I’m sure you have better stuff to do” You said and saw the hurt cross his face but clenched your fists not to say anything more
“Yeah, course” He said laughing covering the hurt, scared to leave the angel herself, He stood up and you soon realised he was just wearing boxers as you turned your face away bright red with embarrassment. He soon got ready before leaving you as you never looked up making him angry for everything he’d done just to get kicked out “You better eat all that”
“I will” You said with a smile as you swirled the spoon in the soup before bringing a spoonful of it up to your lips and smiling at the feeling of it going into your empty stomach as you sat in the dark room all alone and remembered everything that had happened up till this point.
 Laxus sat up in the S Class part of the guild, it had been a week since you had kicked him out of the room and he’d faithfully stayed away but his mood had gotten angrier as the days passed of not seeing you. He got reports off Mira Jane and Makarov every time they had gone in, he’d questioned them loads of time about how you were doing. He sat in the guild hall waiting for you to ask for him to come back but you hadn’t, he refused to take any jobs till he knew you were strong enough to look after yourself. At least that’s what he kept telling himself he knew if anyone came through those doors to try and get to you that Fairy Tail would protect you whether you were part of the guild or not.
The guild doors started shaking as if someone was knocking on them, everyone went silent and looked towards them waiting to see who came through this time. As the doors flew open and in walked a team of wizards, Laxus knew instantly why they had dared to come here and smiled as he finally could hurt the ones who hurt you.
“Who do you think you are barging in here?” Erza said walking up to them while she equipped a weapon
“We don’t want to fight, one of our guild members has gone missing and we believe she is here” A guy with black hair said stepping forward towards Erza “Her name’s (y/n), she’s my girlfriend”
“I’m sorry but I think that’s ex now” Laxus said smirking as he walked down from the S class section towards the group
“You have her then?” Another guy asked with a dark smile “She’s part of our guild, you need to return her to us”
“Why? So, you can kill her this time?” He said as rage covered his face and everyone else in the guild started surrounding the group not to let them through
“Is that what she told you? That we done it?” Your ex boyfriend said laughing “She likes to make up stories like that, she was on a job and it must have happened there we were coming looking for her because she’s been missing so long”
 “Get out” Your voice was low, but the anger and ferocity were there and written all over you face, some of the Fairy Tail members moved out the way to allow you access to the front of the group
“(y/n) go back to bed” Laxus said looking at you standing there beside him in one of his tops that he knew Makarov had probably given you to wear just round that room
“No” You said looking at him and saw the rage all over his face for what these group of individuals had done to you “This was my team from Ghoul Spirit, help each other to the end of time and stand up for the other, what happened to that motto eh?”
“(y/n) you wanted to leave, I couldn’t let you do it” Michael said as he took a step towards you “I love you and cared for you, what if you died because you left”
“I nearly died in that cell because of you” You snarled at him
“But you didn’t because you’re stronger than that, now just come home” Michael said as he too another step towards you before Loke stepped in front of you
“I think you’ve come close, enough don’t you?” He said blocking you from there view “She doesn’t want to come with you, maybe you should all leave it at that”
“She comes with us or we don’t leave without her” Sara said she had red hair and had always hated you for dating Michael
“Sara, you don’t need to hate me anymore” You said looking at her confused, without you there she could date Michael. Then groaned in pain as something came to you, a memory from when you were locked up, the red-haired guy grabbed you as you doubled over holding your head before you stood up angry “You came to visit me in the cells”
“You remember?” She said smirking as everyone else in the team looked worried “You always were the only one who could break my mind erasing”
“I’m stronger than I look” You said looking round at them all as they slowly realise their mistake
“Why would you help her? She could just be here to spy on you” Michael said looking round at everyone trying to use his persuasion magic on everyone “She is part of a dark guild after all”
You felt some people’s eyes turn to you as his magic took effect and looked to Laxus who hadn’t taken his eyes off the group. You knew the only way to get them out was fight them because for some reason you just knew Laxus was never going to let you walk out voluntarily.
“He’s using magic to try and persuade us all to turn on her” Lucy said smiling at Michael who turned and growled her way knowing that she’d broke the effect any of it had
“Leave everyone alone” You shouted not wanting harm to come to anyone here, a hand rested on your shoulder you looked up and saw Laxus looking down at you, he’d figured out the same as you they were never going to leave voluntarily.
“She’s already said she’s not going, so leave already unless you have something else to say?” Gray said
“Just this” Kara who was Sara’s twin sister as she smiled at you a cold sickening smile as she shot out a magic circle, but you had seen it coming and shot out your own magic circle enclosing your old guild in a ball of air, you were able to use air magic
“Always was the only move you used Kara” You said feeling yourself turn dark as you walked towards them with your eyes cold “So much I could do to you within this ball, I could suck out all the air, or the ball could shrink I wander what would happen if I done that?”
“You’re evil (y/n), you can’t turn your back on that” Sara said laughing but you smiled at that
“Maybe I am but I won’t be anymore” You said as you hit the ball with magic sending them all flying outside, you followed with Fairy Tail as they all stood there defensively
“Now not very fair going against a whole guild with just us 5” Sara said pouting
“How about we make it fair though?” Michael suggested
You looked round as you started to step forward but the same hand from earlier landed on you shoulder stopping you
“You’re not going up there, you are not healed” Laxus growled at you, worried about what would happen if you got hurt
“Oh, come on lover boy, did I forget that another condition is that she’s one of the 5” Michael said with a smile “Let’s show your new guild how evil you can go (y/n)”
“Laxus she’ll be ok, we’ll cover for her” Erza said as her, Natsu and Gray walked forward
Laxus squeezed your shoulder before realising it and you both walked forward to join the group
Erza took on Skye with his wind Magic, Natsu took on Kara with her chain magic, Gray took on Shadow with his eye magic, not surprised that Laxus took on Michael with his Water magic and you took on Sara with her mind control.
“Sara you can’t use anything against me” You said sending her a cold smile
“Is that what you think?” Cara said smiling as her eyes went red and everything started shifting around you, you tried to shut her out but Laxus was right you were too weak to fight especially Cara. You opened your eyes and saw what Cara wanted you to see it was her and Laxus making out, you screamed but the two figures just turned and laughed at you. (y/n) stretched out her hand and shot the hallucination you knew it wasn’t were Cara was, but you needed the hallucination gone as you closed you eyes and focused on the noises to break through the mind control. When you opened your eyes again you saw Cara again, she was standing there smirking at your reaction.
“Only two weeks gone and already so weak” Cara said walking towards you
“I’m not weak and I never was” You screamed as your eyes went dark with storms as you blasted Cara into a wall. You walked towards her hands up ready to attack again when an arm wrapped round your waist stopping you.
You looked round to see the rest of Ghoul spirit run up to Cara, you knew Fairy Tail were stronger than them.
“(y/n), are you ok?” Laxus said as he moved his arm to rub up and down your back
“You were right, I was weak” You said feeling dizzy at the amount of magic power you had used up
“No, you aren’t” He said but you nodded
“Laxus” You whispered before your legs gave way as he lifted you up
“You know you just need to tell me you want me to hold you” Laxus whispered into your ear making you giggle, you lay your head on his chest listening to his heartbeat keeping your eyes closed not wanting to see anyone. Laxus lay you back down on the bed “How did you get my top?”
“I found some stuff in those drawers” You said as you turned onto your side and moved to the wall and patted the space beside you “Lie with me”
“I shouldn’t” Laxus said as he felt his face start to burn turning away from you
“Ok, sorry, just wanted to lie and talk to you” You said closing your eyes smiling “You never came back, I didn’t mean for you to be gone forever”
“I was waiting for you to ask me back in” He said as you felt the bed dip and opened your eyes to see Laxus lying beside you
“Did you stay in here the whole time I was unconscious?” You asked him as he stroked your hair nodding “Why though?”
“I don’t know, there was just something about you” Laxus said as you raised your hand to stroke his cheek “What did you see under the mind control?”
“You with Cara” You said as Laxus’s eyes shot to meet yours and you both saw the understanding the feelings you both felt for each other
Laxus leaned in and caught your lips with his, he was being gentle you realised so you leaned in to him deepening the kiss. Your hands travelled down his chest and up his top feeling along the hard-definitive lines of his abs, Laxus’s hand lowered down your back and strayed to your ass.
“You’re supposed to be taking it easy” Laxus growled out looking at you staring at him with your hand still running across his chest
“I’m stronger than I look” You said angry as you grabbed fistfuls of his top pulling you closer together as you smashed your lips onto his before pulling away “Plus we are just making out the now”
“So, is that all I’m getting?” Laxus said with a smirk making you laugh
“Just till I’m fully healed” You said smiling as cuddled up to him feeling sleepy
“You’ll be safe here (y/n), I promise my life on it” He whispered into your hair as he stroked it
“I know, I want to be part of fairy tail” You said drowsily
“We’ll sort that out when your better angel” Laxus said last thing you remember before falling asleep

Laxus x reader
A/N: I heckin love Fairy Tail so much! So you can probably expect a lot of stories for this fandom lol
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Y/n P.O.V~)
I have been in fairytail for a little over three years now. I absolutely love everyone in the guild but there is one person who has particularly caught my eye. His name is Laxus Dreyar, the lightning dragon slayer.
Everyone calls me crazy for loving someone like him but I couldn't care less. Sure, he's always insulting me and making snarky remarks but...yah...I guess I don't know why I like him either...but that's irrelevant.
The point is I like him. My new problem is that I'm starting to reach the point of hopelessness. The more he ignores me the more discouraged I get. Who wouldn't though?
Imagine the person you like degrading you each and every day and no matter how hard you try you know, you'll never be god enough. They'll never return your affection and you are stuck in a unrequited love until you can let go.
Well that's the hell I live each day. I am just about over it. As much as I love Laxus, I don't know how much more my heart can handle. I decided to bake him some homemade cookies since baking has always been a hobby (A/N: I almost typed Hobi...this is not a BTS story...) of mine.
I walk into the guild with a smile on my face. As always, everything is lively and I can't help the warm feeling I get when I see my family. I casually walk up to the top floor and spot the tall blonde male I have my sights set on.
I approach him and clear my throat to get his attention. He turns to me a not so pleased look spreads his features. "Ugh, it's you. What do you want." My nerve waver slightly at his tone but I don't let it stop me.
"Good morning Laxus, I baked you some cookies!" I state with a bright smile as I present him the bag of sweets. He smirks and lets out a cynical laugh. "As if I'd accept something from the likes of you. You disgust me. You're pathetic and weak. You don't deserve to be a member of the fairytail guild." He spoke with a degrading tone. I look down and my chest tightens.
My fists are clenched and I bit my lip to fight the tears. I taste the metallic flavour of my own blood from my bitten lip and I lose my composure. The tears break loose but I refuse to raise my head.
"For so many years I have tried to get you to accept me. I've tried my damn hardest to get you to notice me but all I get is ridicule and disgusted tones. Being called ugly, fat, stupid, annoying, weak, obnoxious, and so much more." I pause and take a shaky breath.
"For so many years I've loved you but it's clear I will never get the affection I so desire. It's clear all I am to you is a pest. It's clear you hate me and want me gone so you know what? You win. You've got what you want. I'm broken. I give up. I'll leave you alone from now on, I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused." With that, I set the bag of sweets at his feet and turn away. I walk out of the guild, my body shaking with sobs as I head to my home.
3rd Person P. O. V. ~
Laxus sits at the table with a shocked expression. Never had he though that would be her reaction. (Y/n) had always been a ball of sunshine, and she was always following him around with admiration encasing her entire being.
She couldn't even hurt a fly so lashing out was the last thing to expect from her. He never meant for any of this to happen. If he was to be honest, he'd always had a bit of a crush on (y/n). He was just bad a showing his emotions so whenever she came around, he would get flustered and make a rude comment.
He never meant it. He's always thought she was beautiful and amazing. He never wanted to hurt her but that's exactly what he just did, and he knew he had to make things right...
(Y/n) P. O. V. ~
I sat on the bed in my apartment with tear stained cheeks. My heart was heavy and shattered. The one I love just broke me like glass thrown to pavement. I felt hallow.
I stared blankly at my wall when a pounding sounded from my door. Whoever it was really had horrible timing. I do not want to social at the moment. But I can't just leave them standing outside.
I rise and head to the door, when I open it I nearly flew back. There stood Laxus. The one who just shattered my entire soul. "What? Here to break me some more. Hate to burst your bubble but that's not really possible." I spoke with a cold voice, unforgiving.
I can see an emotion in his eyes but I can't quite place what, guilt perhaps? "No..(y/n)...I never meant to hurt you. I'm just bad at...emotions. I can't deal with people crying, I don't know how to respond to kindness, and I sure as hell don't know what to do when I like someone. That's why I'm like this, I like you (y/n)." He spoke with sincerity, something quite rare for him.
"Laxus...are you being serious right now?" He nods his head in response and tears once again sting my eyes, this time of happiness. "Laxus, I like you too. I really do." He lets out a small smile and pulls me into his strong arms.
"I'm sorry for the way I've treated you. I promise I'll be better but please, go out with me." He whispers to me, stroking my hair. "Yes..." I sigh out, finally feeling some happiness. This day might have started bad but now? It couldn't be better.
A/N: aaand that's that, I wasn't really sure how to end it but I tried. Anywho, I hope you enjoyed and keep reading my lovelies~💕

heroes
Summary: Dustin has a sister.  Dustin’s sister is Dustin’s hero.  You know who else is Dustin’s hero?  Steve Harrington.
Pairing: Steve Harrington x Reader
Disclaimer: I don’t own these nuggets.
Author’s Note: My little babies.  I love them.  Let me know if you want a series out of this one.
Word Count: 1,478
part two/part three/part four
Dustin was rushing around the house, desperately looking for quarters.  He had already overturned the couch, making your mother get up.  He then bolted up the steps, walkie talkie in hand.  He was speaking gibberish as he ran past your room.
You raised your eyebrows, getting off your bed before walking to the door.  “Dusty, where’s the fire?”  You had been studying all night for your test tomorrow.  You just needed to make it through tomorrow’s test, and then you were free for the weekend.
He whirled around and ran to you, his hands gripping your arms.  “Y/N, this is a life or death emergency.  Do you have any quarters?”
Ah, so he was going to the arcade.  You waved him inside, leading him into your room.  It was covered in shades of blue and white.  There were pictures covering the walls of you, your brother, your mom, and a few of your close friends.  A radio sat in the corner, softly playing.  Your college algebra book and your papers covered the bed, which had a mountain of pillows towards the head.  You grabbed your piggy bank from the bedside table, opening it and shaking out the coins that were inside onto the bed.  “Dig in, kiddo.”  You laughed a bit as he tore into it like a madman.
“Dusty!”  Your mother called from downstairs.  “It’s raining!  You can’t bike to the arcade!”
In sync, you and Dustin turned to look outside.  Sure enough, rain was pelting the glass of your window.  Lightning cracked outside, lighting up the night sky.  You looked back to your brother, finding him already fixing you with those puppy dog eyes.  “Y/N...”  Dustin drew out the last syllable, pursing his lower lip.
You sighed, already moving to grab your keys.  “Come on.  We’ll pick up Mike and Lucas, too.”
He pumped a fist into the air, grabbing all the quarters you had just given him before grabbing his walkie talkie.  He began to walk out the door while shoving the quarters into his pockets.  He had taken every single one of them, which was probably around ten dollars worth of quarters.  “Y/N/s going to drive us because of the rain, guys.  Be there in ten.”
You shook your head, pulling on your coat and shoving your wallet inside.  You knew the boys would probably want to go out and get food afterwards, and they were going to spend all of their money at the arcarde, so it was up to you to be prepared.
Dustin suddenly appeared in your doorway.  “Y/N, what are you doing?!  We gotta go!”
With a laugh, you nodded, turning off the radio before walking to the door.  The two of you bounded down the stairs, Dustin shouting that you were going to drive him.  You kissed your mother’s cheek before darting out the door into the rain towards your car.  You hadn’t turned sixteen too long ago, but it was good enough for Dustin, considering you were now his ride almost everywhere.  He didn’t care how good of a driver you were as long as you could get him from Point A to Point B.
You let out a sigh of relief as you got into the front seat, buckling up as Dustin got in.  “Ready?”  When he nodded, you pulled out and drove down the street, taking just a few minutes before you pulled up to the Wheeler’s.  Soon after Mike got in, you were at the Sinclair’s and then it was a clear shot to the arcade.
“Is Steve still meeting us here?”  Lucas leaned forward so he was in between your seat and Dustin’s.
Dustin nodded, grinning from ear to ear.  “Said he’d meet us there at eight.”
You frowned as you glanced over at them.  “Wait.  Steve?  As in Steve Harrington?”  Your grip shifted on the steering wheel as you looked back at the road.  You knew of him from school, but then again, who didn’t?  He was the town’s golden boy.  The one who was most likely going to actually get out of there and do something.  You didn’t really have much of an opinion on him.  Sure, he was pretty cute, from what you had seen.  But he seemed too wrapped up in his own little bubble to notice anyone except for maybe four or five people.
Mike nodded, rolling his eyes a bit.  “Yeah, he’s pretty cool.  Dustin invited him since they’ve gotten pretty close.”
“Harrington’s the one who told Dustin to use the Farrah Fawcett spray on his hair.”  Lucas reached forward and ruffled your brother’s curls, and you smirked as you looked over at him.
“Is that why you’ve started ditching me?”  You made a fake pouty face as you began to pull into the parking lot.  “For Steve Harrington?”
He huffed as he grabbed your hand, squeezing it.  “Y/N.  You are my big sister.  My hero.  Steve Harrington could never come before you.  He just happens to also be my hero.”
You scoffed, laughing as the three boys tumbled out of your car and rushed into the arcade.  You could go back home.  But that would just require getting back out into the car and driving back to the arcade and, well, that was gas.  You made a split decision and got out of the car, following them into the arcade.  Warmth enveloped you as you pulled open the doors, flashing lights all around you.  The carpet under your feet was glowing as you shoved your freezing hands into your jean pockets.
You made your way around the games until you found the boys by some machine with a scantily clad girl on it.  Only, they had been joined by a redheaded girl that you think was named Max, Will Byers, some curly headed little girl, and none other than Steve Harrington.  He was currently in the chair, eyes wide as he watched the screen.  The others were all shouting directions at him as he tried to follow.  They all groaned as he died, and he shrugged, looking up.  He paused as his eyes landed on you.  “Hey, Y/N.  I didn’t know you were coming.”
You shrugged, keeping your hands in your pockets.  “I figured if my brother was going to be ditching me for some video games, I should join him.”
Dustin grinned as he ran to you, dragging you to the game.  “Your turn!”
“Wait!  What?!”  You were shoved into the chair as someone stuffed the machine with two quarters.  From what you could gather, you were supposed to slay some kind of dragon.  You rapidly tried to kill whatever the hell was on your screen, huffing as you died.  “Sorry?”  You looked up at the guys sheepishly.
Your brother only shook his head in shame, looking down at the ground.  “You’ve brought dishonor to our family.”
Steve rolled his eyes, nudging your arm.  “What do you say we leave him to his family dishonor and find some air hockey?”
You nodded, laughing as you followed after him.  You wound through the arcade, until you finally found an air hockey machine closer to the back.  The arcade was almost completely empty due to the rain.  There were a few people in groups gathered here and there, but it wasn’t packed like normal.
Back at Dragon Slayer, Dustin pumped a fist into the air as he watched you two walk off.
“Dustin, what the hell are you planning?” Max asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.  Everyone in the party turned to look at him, realizing he did in fact have a plan of some sort.
“Nothing!”  He insisted as he held up his hands in surrender.  “I just know that Steve’s been lonely without Nancy, and he might be the only guy I think might be even close to good enough for Y/N.”
Mike shook his head as he got into the seat for the game, popping in his own two quarters.  “I don’t understand how you’re so close with Y/N.  Nancy’s just a pain.”
“Yeah, a pain in the ass,” Lucas added with a smirk, shaking his head.
“It’s because Y/N’s actually cool, unlike Nancy.”  Dustin stumbled as Mike shoved him lightly, glaring at the boy.
Mike crossed his arms over his chest.  “Hey, Nancy helped us fight the demodogs and all that, too.”
“That still doesn’t mean she’s cool.”  Dustin shoved Mike back playfully before glancing back to where you and Steve and disappeared to.  He could see you through a few rows of the games, and a smile spread over his face.  “Let’s just hope this works.”

Don't Have to Choose
Summary: Reader has been avoiding Laxus and Gajeel because of how she feels about them but soon they let Reader know that they don’t have to choose.
TW/CW: Poly Laxus Dreyar x genderfluid!afab!Reader x Gajeel Redfox,
Requested?: Yes, by a lovely Anon who said, “Hi Gin!! I was wondering if you still write for Fairy Tail? If so, could I request a poly Laxus x genderfluid reader afab x Gajeel imagine? Maybe the way they get together? And if the reader was a water or ice god or demon slayer that would be cool. If you do choose to write this it would be so exciting to read your great writing!”
Word Count: 1,543
A/N: It feels so good to write again. Again, I'm so sorry about it taking so long to get back to it. Also, when I say I wish I could be (Y/n), I mean it. Literally can never decide which is my favorite between Laxus and Gajeel lol. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the read! As always, love to all!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Your POV
As I made my way through the Guild Hall for another job request, I ducked behind a pillar as I spotted Laxus on the other side of the room. I silently prayed that no one would bring attention to me. Out the corner of my eye, I also spot Gajeel so I decide to beeline towards the Request Board and pick up the first one I could grab and take off. I’m sure you’re wondering why I’m avoiding my two best friends but I’m not even sure myself. Actually, that’s not true. I know why but I’d rather marry a Vulcan than admit the reason.
I make it to the board and grab a job request and then turn on my heel to speed out of there but slam right something big and sturdy. I’m knocked onto my butt and as I look up I find the Iron Dragon Slayer grinning down at me. I glare at him as he chuckles but my eyes are torn away from him as a hand is offered to help me up, said hand happens to be attached to a second Dragon Slayer, this one being of the lightning variety. I get up off the floor without taking Laxus’s hand and then turn to head towards Mirajane to accept the job.
I toss the paper down onto the counter and turn to leave but Mira stops me, “(Y/n), you should probably take back-up for this one. From what I hear there’s a lot more Vulcans than just one person can handle for this job.” Of course, having heard her, Laxus and Gajeel make their way over.
“We’ll go with you, Tiny,” Gajeel offers.
I internally scream as Laxus nods his head in agreement. “Great! Be safe you three, we’ll see you when you get back,” Mira exclaims happily. Something in the back of my mind says Mira did that on purpose but I don’t have the mental ability to argue with her right now. Without saying another word, I head straight to the door and out into the sunshine and bustling street of Magnolia. I don’t even need to look back to know that Gajeel and Laxus have joined me as well as Panther Lily. I head North on foot towards the mountain town overrun by Vulcans.
We walk in silence for quite some time before I hear something metal rattling. I turn to look over my shoulder to find Gajeel dropping a few nuts and bolts into his mouth. He offers some to me but I roll my eyes and turn my attention back ahead of us. Lily finally is the first to speak, “I’ll be blunt and quick about it, what has gotten into you three?”
The silence coming from Gajeel and Laxus tells me that they’re waiting for me to speak. I pretend not to notice. Unfortunately, Laxus doesn’t seem to want the subject to drop, “I don’t know about Metal Muncher, but you’ve been ignoring me for weeks.”
“Don’t be so dramatic, it hasn’t been that long,” I respond nonchalantly.
“So, you admit you’ve been ignoring him?” Gajeel inquires, “Glad it’s not just me.”
“It has been that long. It’s been three weeks since there’s been any semblance of an interaction between us,” Laxus adds.
I sigh and ignore them as were coming up on the outskirts of the town. It’s surprisingly quiet as I lean against a brick wall to take a break and survey the area from our position up on this hill. In a flash, Laxus is in front of me and has his hands pressed against the wall to cage me. I avoid eye contact with him as he speaks, “Don’t think we’re finished discussing this. When we get this job done, you’re gonna tell me why you’ve been ignoring me.” I finally look up at him to read his expression. He looks genuinely hurt which causes my own heart to ache. Then I could swear I hear Gajeel growl lowly as Laxus steps away from me to look over the town.
Seeing no sign of the Vulcans, we descend into the valley where the small town resides in search of them. It’s not long before we find them. Together the four of us make quick work of the job with only a short capture of myself by a Vulcan which led to even more tension between Gajeel, Laxus, and myself. Soon, we leave the town as the citizens cheer and thank us. The walk home is almost suffocatingly tense and quiet.
Upon our return to Magnolia, we make our way to the counter where Mira wanders back and forth serving drinks to our guildmates. Laxus heads upstairs where it’s undoubtedly quieter and Gajeel makes himself at home at one of the tables on the opposite side of the room. I take a seat at the bar as Lily hops up onto its surface, “Are we going to discuss what happened?”
Mira stops in front of us, “What happened?”
“Nothing,” I mumble in annoyance.
Lily looks as if he’s trying to decide if he should tell her but quickly makes up his mind, “(Y/n) here was kidnapped by one of the Vulcans. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Gajeel and Laxus work together so swiftly or become so angry.”
Mira giggles, “Let me guess, you too think they love our dear friend here, don’t you.”
“Yes,” and nods thoughtfully, “I also think that (Y/n) loves them too but is too scared of what that might mean.”
I sigh, “Fine, you’ve caught me. I just... there’s no way that I could choose.”
Mira looks at me with a mischievous grin on her face, “Who says you have to choose?”
I fidget with my fingernails as I drop my head to stare at the counter. A storm of thoughts rumbles its way through my mind. However, it’s quickly halted as someone gently places their hand on my shoulder. I look behind me to find Laxus and Gajeel both standing there. Gajeel nods his head towards the door to signal for me to come with them.
Mira mouths, “good luck,” at me as I hop down off the stool to leave the Guild Hall. Quietly, we make our way to my house as my stomach twists itself into knots and the storm in my mind begins raging again. I unlock the front door and step inside, leaving the door open for them to follow me in. I hear the door shut softly behind me as I drop my backpack off on the kitchen counter and then plop down onto the couch.
The quiet persists for a few moments until Laxus finally speaks up from his stance against the wall across from me, “I never knew there could be someone outside of the Thunder Legion that I could work so well with let alone with such little communication.”
I know without asking that he’s referring to the fact that he and Gajeel worked like a well-oiled machine to get me to safety. From the other couch, Gajeel agrees, “I didn’t either but we were pretty good out there huh?”
“We were... but it’s not just us,” comes Laxus’s response as he drops onto the couch beside me.
Gajeel stands and joins us, “Without Tiny, we’d be a pretty shitty team.”
“We’re not going to make you choose, (Y/n). Why would we when we’d know you’d be safer with both of us than just one?” Laxus adds.
All my fear of having to choose dissipates as I realize what they’re saying, “So, we’re really going to make this a thing?”
“Yup,” Gajeel answers, popping the p before getting up to go to the kitchen.
Several months later, the Fairy Tail Guild has been requested to help out taking down a dark guild. Here I stand, facing off against a trio of dark mages. One of them looks at me and chuckles, “You’ll make a cute little maid, sweetheart. What’s your name?”
One of his friends looks at him like he’s insane, “Dude, how do you not know who this is? I highly suggest you just fight and not try anything. Her boyfriends will level you in seconds if you even think about taking her.” Just then the guy is struck with a bolt of lightning and knocked out.
“You’re right about that one,” Laxus grumbles as he steps up beside me on my right, shortly joined by Gajeel on my left. The other two look at the three of us in absolute terror and try to flee but they too are knocked out, this time by Gajeel’s iron arm.
“Just when I thought I was going to have to take these idiots out myself,” I laugh.
“You know we’ve always got your back, Tiny,” Gajeel responds as he moves closer. The three of us form a sort of triangle with our backs turned to each other to face the oncoming hoard of dark mages who heard the lightning and decided they could take the challenge. In the midst of chaos with a battle raging on, I feel perfectly safe knowing that the two men who hold equal shares of my heart have my back and each other’s while I also have theirs.
