The parallel between Phoenix Priestess and Dragon Cry Nalu is so beautiful. And it's about finding comfort in each other when they're being doubtful about something significant in their lives. In Lucy's case, it's magic whilst in Natsu's case it's his identity. Natsu ensures Lucy that regardless of what happens, they're together in it and Lucy ensures Natsu that regardless of his outer look, he'll always be Natsu in her eyes. And both scenes end with a loving hugs.

I dunno if it has been said before but you guys remember the dragon egg episode? I couldn’t dislike it more. Natsu shouting at Lucy had me so mad and for the longest time I believed that the scene was canon. But to my relief, while reading the manga I found out that no such bullshit happened and that episode was entirely filler. Because that was so fucking ooc for Natsu’s character and guess what, that’s the only time. And what’s even more infuriating is that Lucy just brushes it off like nothing happened. This will forever piss me off.

To answer natsus question on what color hair he and Lucy’s children will have, it’s strawberry blonde. Like the cutest shade of strawberry blonde to ever exist.

i think a nalu element that doesn't get talked about enough is the fact that pre-series, natsu doesn't really hang out with a lot of people. yes, he loves his friends and family but there are few people he actively likes to or wants to spend time with before lucy. it's just him and happy for the most part but then he meets lucy he's like "yeah, she's cool, we're going to be best friends from now on" and then for the most part they're basically inseparable after that

he wants to team up with her because she's nice, and she is, but there's a lot of people in the guild who are nice. in my silly little brain palace i just think that natsu just vibes with her so much from the very beginning that he just feels so compelled to be with her that after years of going solo he suddenly wants to form a team with this girl that he's know for like what, a week? yeah she's not the strongest and at that point she's a little whiny and hasn't grown into the smart mage she is now, but i think that even though natsu sees the potential in her, he doesn't really care about that in that moment. he just sees her and nice and funny and caring and he thinks that she's cool so he wants to be around her more

i also like to think about the idea that lucy just thinks natsu has always been eager to be around people and has no idea that she's the only one that has this effect on him

Lucy: I am in love with my best friend but he probably doesn’t feel the same way

Meanwhile Natsu: Does everything in his power to make Lucy smile, grants her wishes, protects her, would burn the world for her, etc.

natsu and lucy sparring post-war at the guild gym and they kinda gather an audience cause of how long they’ve been fighting. lucy’s hair is out of her ponytail and natsu’s bangs are in his eyes. they’ve gotten to the point where they’re playing dirty. consistently taunting each other and absolute foul play. at some point lucy pins natsu on his back with his hands above his head and natsu fuckin headbutts her to get outta it. there are faint scales around natsu’s eyes, the room feels like it’s 90 degrees. everytime lucy changes stardress its nearly blinding and it seems like there’s bits of stardust clinging to her.

the tension is fucking palpable. everyone feels it. people are wolf whistling whenever one of them pins the other down. natsu gets lucy in a headlock and whispers something in her ear and erza feels downright scandalized. she considers covering wendy’s poor eyes.

NaLu's current relationship situation

Okay, this is something that's been on my mind lately and if I don't talk about it I think I'm going to explode.

We all know that Natsu and Lucy have a "strange" relationship, they are more than friends but less than lovers, as Mashima said previously. And I want to talk about some changes that have occurred from the original manga to the sequel.

LET'S BEGIN BTCHS

I think we all know that Natsu is NOT as dense as they make him out to be. He may be somewhat inexperienced when it comes to romance but he KNOWS that his situation with Lucy is different compared to any girl he knows.

He becomes possessive and jealous, something that doesn't happen with other girls, only Lucy. If you really didn't know anything about relationships or how intimate many of those moments are, why would you be jealous when other men do it? Natsu knows that what he does with Lucy is close, personal, INTIMATE.

I know some people treat it as a joke but I really do think that Natsu, from the bottom of his being, thinks he is in a relationship with Lucy. And Lucy has a lot to do with this, I think her way of expressing how close Natsu has become to her now and the lack of reaction on her part makes him think that she's okay with it happening.

Lucy no longer reacts aggressively when Natsu does something that only romantic couples do, she has become passive in those situations, timidly asking him to stop, a reaction that in the original manga did not usually happen. She used to be much more authoritarian and firm in these cases, reaching physical violence (the famous Lucy kicks, wich I approve of because god forbid a woman has boundaries smh).

I think this lack of negative reaction on Lucy's part makes Natsu think that he has her consent to do what he does, hence, from his point of view, he is not doing anything wrong. Natsu thinks that Lucy is exclusive to him, since he is exclusive to Lucy.

Lucy has no competition for Natsu's attention. He has no desire to be with another woman or have the type of relationship he has with Lucy with anyone else. Since from Natsu's point of view, they are together (and cheating on Lucy is non-existent in his mind).

But this is different from Lucy's point of view, she thinks that Natsu is not interested in her, she thinks that he is simply too dense to know what his actions mean and she lets it pass as an accident.

I know that communication is non-existent in Fairy Tail but if Lucy doesn't make their relationship clear they will never be able to be something more because Natsu doesn't see the need to talk things out.

(sorry if something doesn't make sense, english is not my first lenguage lmao)

Please feel free to say if you feel like me or not because I want to see different points of view about this :)

It’s actually amusing how Natsu doesn’t even realise how much he’s in love with someone to the point of just casually acting like a boyfriend with no regards to the status of their relationship.

don’t mind me, just casually immortalizing this literal 0.5 sec clip of nalu in the 18th opening where natsu is feral protective over lucy as always and it’s just incredibly hot/sexy af for no reason-

#fairy tail #natsu dragneel #lucy heartfilia #nalu #natsu x lucy #is it a reference to gmg arc?? #but god HOT DAMN the 2nd frame got me FEELING THINGS #natsu wears the same exact outfit w/ multiple variations but this one is actually my top 1 #something about that collar and one-arm long sleeve got me feeling some type of way #and i thought this op couldn't get any hotter with mafia-like nalu in the first 2 secs #am i ever not thirsting about natsu lucy or nalu? no #mine #ramblings

[kaicean]

happy (late) nalu day 2023! ✨

#fairy tail #natsu dragneel #lucy heartfilia #nalu #natsu x lucy #my art #this is so late i cry BUT IT'S DONE!!! #natsu's hair took me literally one try #a sentence i never thought i'd say #but i love them and my nalu week entry will be late but i love them

[sunslants]

this is probably really only interesting to me and im not going to phrase this well at all but lucy rewriting the book of end is so intimate in a sort of like. well lets think about the technical implications of writing and language kind of way. theres no way natsu got up after that and was exactly the same as he was before.

maybe he uses the turns of phrases that lucy likes to use in her writing now, or a word somewhere got tweaked into an almost-the-same synonym. maybe he eats more, maybe he fights more, maybe he loves so intensely he can save the world with it. maybe hes everything lucy knows him to be and less everything he knew himself to be. maybe he sees her and knows her so well he might as well be looking at himself. maybe lucy gets deja vu sometimes when theyre talking, in the way that very old and very close friends recognize their own subtle behaviors and words in the other.

idk i just like to think about how characters and writing are strange, funhouse-mirror reflections of their authors and the people they want to reach. and anyway at the end of the day, writings all about love and theyve got loads to spare of that

#sorry if this makes no sense or waxes poetical for too long #idk how to express my thoughts unless i am writing one thousand word character studies. and i have no timeee #fairy tail #nalu #tbh i just need to reread or/v #guys. im gojng to be honest. if i get back into that youre going to see me plumb intensities of unwell that could split the atom #or smth. idk im not a stem girlie #anyway (rattling the bars of my time cage) I NEED TO WRITE AUGHHH

[h4lcyonism]

i’m a feminist, obviously, but i wouldn’t really mind him saving me

and i know that i’m fine without a man, but i think that i would like his protection

i’m just being honest, can’t change what i like; i’ll never forget it, he told me one night,

“if anybody hurts you… i’m going to prison for life”

This is absolutely random but I noticed a parallel between Fairy Tail Dragon Cry and Tangled

In both movies, the male characters “die” and are saved by the tears of love ❤️

I wonder if this is intentional…oh well do as you wish with this information 🤭🤭

Nalu truely is one kind of a otp, when you know

They're are more than friends less than lovers since like 2006.

Ever growing✨mutual pining✨ when you thought, it can't grow more.

Author sensei supports it wholeheartedly by making heartmeltingly soft and risqué arts. He even enthusiastically conducts and participates in 'Nalu day' event like a tradition.

He even drew them almost kissing once.

Not to mention, getting a whole inspiration of a movie out of that one nalu scene.

He even drew their future daughter.

Pairing is canon in like 2 or 3 different verses but still not canon.

They have trust and friendship, great enough to move mountains.

Truely changed each other's lives for the better. Light of each other's life.

They're each other precious family.

Support and lift each other in grim moments.

Seemingly went on a date in second movie and in another anime.

Slept beside each other naked ( to save a life.)

Will do anything for each other. ( One rewrote a book with black magic to save the other's life.)

Will do anything to make the other one happy. ( sailed down a whole rainbow sakura blossom on a boat just so the other, who was sick can see them.)

Get each other like no other.

Are both adorable and chaotic together.

Connected by the fate itself.

Don't want to go on without the another.

There is absolutely no competition for this otp.

Is almost a canon end game but still not canon.😭
