#I fought a good fight and lost to the ‘he just like me fr’ vibes

[dreeeve]

another character has hit my kin list

[moeruhoshi]

Can he stop trying to @ me when I'm blocked lmfao

And why do we have to prove to him of all people that NaLu make a good couple? He clearly lives in the tag so wouldn't he have found some information yet 💤💤

Do I even take the energy 😂 this seriously is just a matter of opinions, I can legit say Gray suits Lucy best

(But like that's not true cuz Juvia is a clear winner, she taught that boy how to love again no doubt in my mind. They really learned a lot with each other, Graylu is cute but fr I only see them as brother and sister lmao they have that dynamic more than anything)

I complain that antis don't do anything but spout shit about the pressure we put on Mashima to draw more NaLu, which hella exists

Some girls can really push their shit on him, but it's really what Mashima wants in the end. If there's anything I know about authors (since am one and want to work with them in the future) it's that popularity sells? He can either write what he wants or decide to just emphasize what he knows will get attention, and NaLu gets hella attention. I wouldn't have readers without it ;)

Legit it can happen in any fandom that fans will press an author to give them what they want, it's ultimately up to the author to decide what to do with his or her story 💅

Not to say it doesn't fit, is overdone, or people don't respond positively. NaLu works really well, does not pull away from the main story or distract the overall sequence. If NaLu made no sense I would be annoyed. Antis say FT isn't good because of the NaLu blowup, but?? If you don't like it, pay attention to the plot?? There's a looooot of it. Fairy Tail is not perfect (is anything?) but I think it's bomb af lmao I love it, it rules, I love Earthland 😚

Can we just talk about how Natsu and Lucy were not immediate friends? Natsu thought she was kind if an idiot and didn't care if she came with him on missions or not, but they've grown way above that. Lovers or not, their team is something that just? It works? It breathes? The amount of trust they share? It's lowkey magical. They've grown a lot with each other uuugh I love the character development

When they save each other, fight for the other 😩❤ fucking heart nut (Which goes for literally anyone? Cana saving Lucy, Flare saving Lucy, Gray expelling the demon in Lucy <can we have some side effects in the sequel>)

Their bond is so strong, if Natsu got with someone else it'd be a lil?? Because, lovers or not, they have a strong bond, and personally I'd be like, where tf did you put those feelings?

<Lil note, a girl and boy who are friends may fall in love with each other, it may not be at the same time or at the right time or will necessarily work out, but?>

Future Lucy dying kind of tops it for me. Natsu is not an overly emotional character, rarely cries or talks about why he's upset. I'm curious to know what he was talking about with Gildarts in that silent chapter. I know some say it might've been about the fact that he had to leave Lucy, but he just lost Igneel after meeting him again. Seriously so heart wrenching to watch him have to go through that. Back to my main point tho, he just cares so much about her. Same thing when Gray tried to kill himself, Natsu was begging with tears not to lose him. Can we talk abandonment? After Lisanna died and Natsu grew closer to Lucy, saw her fucking die, I feel like that just hit him, made him realize just how much he cared about her. I don't think Natsu likes or wants to lose anyone. Lucy is so current and present in his life, I don't doubt he wants to keep her safe.

Lucy learned a lot and gained a lot thanks to Natsu bringing her to the guild <which she acknowledged> She wanted to protect his future too. She fought to protect him. I think it's foolish to ignore their strong bond. I adore it, whether or not Mashima makes them canon, I swear no other two people could have such an amazing connection.

Again, the nakama view can be applied. Things come across differently to other people, whatcha gonna do? Personally, I think their love can grow beyond friendship. It's a nice way to think. Certainly, I have friends that I love more than life itself and we have 100% a platonic relationship.

It's really dumb when antis say that Natsu just harrases her when she tells him to stop or doesn't want him in her home? I think you're ignoring how good of friends they are at that point. I most certainly also have a level of intimacy when it comes to my friends. I personally don't mind intimate friendships, Natsu and Lucy have an intimate friendship.

Back up to Brandish and Natsu laughing about how weirdly fun it is to mess with Lucy? He just loves it, it's part of what makes them them. Nothing current from Lisanna can give me those vibes. Maybe Erza, but again, older sister point of view, where she helps him think and learn when it comes to a situation. Erza, Natsu, and Gray grew up with each other so it's like they're a little family in my eyes. She loves and cherishes them @ Gray vs E.N.D

Lucy helped Natsu grow emotionally and Natsu helped Lucy realize just how strong she is. Fire Dragons Claw and Regulus Lucy Kick all over Fiore.

I invite my other NaLu binches to spill some tea because? If he really wants discourse and information, fucking hit him with it
