I spent way too long on this not to inflict my Fairy Tail Racing AU on the world. On my life I'm never drawing a lineup of this many characters again, but goddamn it the B Team dynamic is tragically underutilized and I had to be the change I want to see in the world

It’s a modern with magic au where Laxus is a race car driver and Gajeel's his mechanic (why yes I am biased) and racing also involves mages fighting to get the upper hand so it’s all suitably over-the-top and dangerous. Additional ramblings under the cut 😘

Laxus is a powerhouse of a mage, a world-class driver, and an all around asshole, feeling perpetually stifled by his family's shadow over his career. Makarov finally kicks him out of his racing group (fairy tail) after yet another incident of "intentional recklessness" that endangered the rest of the group this time. He's chastened, but he's also dead-set on taking the chance to prove he can be just as successful without his gramps' resources backing him, which means he has to scrounge up a team for himself.

The unexpected sticking point turns out to be finding a new mechanic. Laxus inherited his car that's famously powerful and specialized and also extremely high maintenance, even by the standards of their batshit magic race cars. Of the few people skilled enough to fix his car, no one's also willing to take on the workload of constant, intensive repairs required after every race Laxus drives. They say he stands a better chance of changing cars than finding a mechanic

—

Gajeel is a down on his luck iron mage after the bad crowd he got involved with years back finally got busted for a lot of borderline illegal shit. He's got a good head for machines and using his magic to shape himself into any tool he needs makes it uniquely intuitive and efficient for him, but the reputation he landed himself with leaves him struggling to find any work. Gajeel's incessantly self-reliant and lowkey too penitent for his own good as he reaches the end of his rope.

First, Juvia tells him her new friends in Fairy Tail say Laxus still needs a mechanic and she urges him to go for it. Then Ivan tries to recruit him to his own group, counting on him to roll with their constant misconduct given his own track record. And then Makarov approaches with a proposal to get enough intel to disband the Raven Tail group and promises a stable job once it's done. Gajeel needs something, but Makarov needs him to work with Ivan, and Ivan demands him to work for Laxus, and Laxus can't get any other mechanics to work for him, so Gajeel's suddenly drowning in work trying to satisfy all three of them.

—

So, Laxus manages to form enough of a team to keep racing. The Raijin Tribe is a given, they're unwaveringly loyal to Laxus and determined to be part of his team. Mira is a very welcome surprise who joined out of a fondness for Freed and an admirably steadfast faith that Laxus can change his ways and succeed. Gajeel's a necessity that Laxus hates at first, surly and standoffish, but his work gets undeniable results. Juvia is reluctantly recruited by Gajeel since she learned first aid by patching him up countless times, and she keeps threatening to quit and apply to Fairy Tail, yet she never goes through with it. Cana clicks with the group so naturally that they're not sure exactly when or why she joined up with them, and they constantly forget she's technically not on payroll.

The team’s dynamic would be smooth sailing if not for Laxus and Gajeel. Laxus doesn't trust him in the beginning, and he resents that he's bad for Laxus's already bad image. Gajeel gives everyone the cold shoulder and automatically assumes they wouldn’t care about him so he doesn’t try to bridge the gaps. They're forced into proximity when Gajeel has to teach Laxus more about the inner workings of the car so he can minimize the wear and tear of his driving, because if he doesn't adjust, there's no hope of him getting by with only one mechanic.

At the start they're both stubbornly combative, but soon enough they're too exhausted to nip at each other and they find they actually work well together, and even get along in the ways that they earn each other’s respect. They rely on each other- Laxus on Gajeel for his safety and for the ability to race at all, and Gajeel on Laxus for his livelihood and his bid for a fresh start- too significantly to not develop a consideration for one another. They're important to each other, whether they like it or not, which they’re going to need as the competitions keep getting more and more out of hand.

—

It goes on to vaguely follow the Raven Tail plotline, and I have a lot more thoughts about the Laxus n Gajeel development and how the others come into play, but I don’t have the energy to organize all of it right now- Maybe at a later point, or if people want to ask. If I were a more powerful artist, I'd design the car too, but I ain't doing that shit

IVE GOT MORE THUNDER LEGION/RAIJINSHUU CRUMBS THAT IM GOING TO EXPLODE ABOUT

CW: FAIRY TAIL GAME 2 SPOILERS BELOW

tagging @freedjustinemywife and @selfawarecobalt (also if youre reading this come join us on the thunder legion community)

Before I get to the goods I wanted to point out something that made me laugh:

Wendy has often said in the game how much she admires Laxus’ kinder side (not her calling him the gay uncle of the guild) but whenever she does so MIRA almost always reminds her and the player that ‘nah i remember when u did this shit back in 2009’ ITS SO FUNNY

OK NOW HERES A CUTE EXCHANGE OF ELFMAN GIVING LAXUS GIFTS (i don’t understand the occasion tho, xmas during the war?? idkk) FROM THE THUNDER LEGION

my freakout thoughts:

bixlow making a mini doll???? im gonna cry thats so fucking CUTE,,, imagining bixlow sitting down to carve one out for laxus with a silly face,,ough,,bixlow is so sweet i NEED TO SEE HIM

freed knitting a sweater.....ok so the entire thunder legion are all arts and crafts oriented ok i will explode. AND A PROTECTION ENCHANTMENT TOO?? the bodyguarding never stops even if he's offscreen he's still got it FUCKK i miss my wife. and youre so right elfman WEAR IT LAXUS U DICK. also,,,,laxus recognized the sweater from the pattern itself so freed has knitted things with that similar pattern before...AUGHHHHH freed knitting the thunder legion and laxus outfits what if i suddenly combusted

EVERGREEN MAKING A STEWWWW and the elfever crumbs with chef evergreen and taste tester elfman,,,man if elfman doesnt marry her I WILL. this is quite possibly the softest and coziest little side event ever, where the hell is the thunder legion when i'm freezing in my apartment....

ALL 3 OF THEM GIVING LAXUS CASH JUST IN CASE ok this reminds me of the talks i had with @yellow-guiding-lantern about the thunder legion being the keepers/the only ones who could reign in rabid dog laxus, this just affirms whats TRUE theyre taking care of his dumb ass

moving on:

youre so right lucy the thunder legion DOES love him im so sick of them /aff (if i dont see them soon i will make it on international news)

THUNDER LEGION FORMATION CRUMBS????

i always did wanna learn how they got to be together and though i know the gaiden had its own interpretation i wondered how else it could have happened, and this is a very interesting and different approach the way FREED is the one who wants to fight laxus first (angry freed????? CAN I SEE????)

i have so many questions like?? why did he get so angry??? did laxus break a rule that enraged him?? like maybe threatening the safety of others??? did freed give laxus a good fight?? were bixlow and evergreen involved at this point??? and what does that mean freed only wanted laxus for his strength???? elaborate??????

OH MY GODDDDDDDDDDDD

mira is so funny the way she can quickly uncover laxus' facade of trying to stay tough and hard, in the source material + game she's always been the anchor of staying true to one's feelings. in other words, she's all "aaaaaaahhh i caught you caring"

elfman catching laxus blushing too HAHAHA his whiteness will work against him. (also- manhood????? was there no other word they could have used???)

NOT TOO MUCH ON THE THUNDER LEGION LUCY??? to be fair i also love gift giving, i love to give my friends lots of little things i know they'll love so i don't see the "obsessiveness" of this.

MY TAKEAWAYS:

Mirajane Strauss will forever be Laxus' greatest opp (undefeated streak)

the Thunder Legion are the best gift givers in the guild, they're the equivalent of the rich aunties who want to spoil you rotten

I want to see no more Freed characterization calling him a pushover or cheerleader for Laxus, he's literally the one consistently defying his arrogance ON AND OFF SCREEN🗣️

Laxus and the Thunder Legion are private people, but everyone can see their love and devotion to each other and I think that's so beautiful

If I don't see new Thunder Legion content soon WHERE I CAN ACTUALLY SEE THEM another CEO will pay for it

[freedjustinemywife]

it came to me in a dream

[fairytail-multishipper]

what does mashima have against women wearing visible makeup?

evergreen, ultear, and minerva all wear viable makeup (eyeshadow/lipstick) when they’re evil/bad

but after they’ve turned good, no makeup

[robinissobbing]

Istg if they don’t give the thunder legion some kind of backstory or depth i’m gonna choke someone.

[dragongodryss]

You gave me an ask so i'll give you one. list a bunch of fairy tail characters and what you think their favourite fanfic genre would be (maybe just do your favourites since you probably know a lot more characters than I)

Lucy: romance, angst with a happy ending, probably Y/N

Natsu: Assuming he knew or cared: Crack fics

Gray: fluff, might dip into non-sexual RPF of people he knows for laughs

Erza: any AU where the characters have to mount a play

Wendy: Fluffy found family stuff

Mirajane: anything involving RPF, especially romance

Cana: F/F smut. Also darker fics (addiction, abandonment, mental illness)

Gajeel: Band AUs. Also crack fics

Freed: Rewrites

Levy: Any and all AUs

Laxus: Angsty Band AUs. Preferably with M/M smut.

Bickslow: RPF (of people he knows) + Y/N. He likes to read them out at parties. Also likes wedding fics.

Evergreen: Tooth-rotting fluff. Bix relentlessly mocks her for this.

Erik: Alternate Endings

Sorano: Smut of all stripes. She will read out in public with people next to/behind her. Also chef AUs. She tries to learn cooking from them (this goes poorly)

Minerva: Angst with a Happy Ending.

Yukino: Canon Universe fics. Occasionally dips into RPF. For science. Has a fondness for enemies to lovers.

Rufus: Will say he likes rewrites but has read every RPF fic of his guildmates. Yukino knows and has been sworn to silence.

Orga: Has read My Immortal and nothing else. will keep it that way.

Dobengal: Drabbles of all types. Anything he can read quickly enough to not be noticed.

Sting: Likes Darkfics, but prefers a mix of fluff and crack. Any pairing that fits the right character tropes.

Rogue: Has one pairing he likes and will read nothing else. Genre is irrelevant.

[lisannastraussisanangel]

Hey hope ur well! I was wondering if u had any hcs about Freed being ticklish?

Ticklish Freed is now one of my new fav headcanons...

It is his deepest, darkest secret. That man planned to take it to his grave

He was so good at hiding it. Like even if someone did try to tickle him, he would be able to keep a straight face for long enough for them to give up

That was until Bickslow refused to stop. Freed broke and giggled, which turned Bix into a monster

Freed tried bribing Bickslow into silence but very slowly everyone found out (Bix blames his babies for snitching but Freed beat the shit outta him anyway)

Tickling Freed is a very dangerous activity. Any attempts usually end in being locked in some type of rune (usually trapped in a box)

But there are some members who are willing to take the risk

Mirajane is too scary for Freed to attack so he mostly just runs from her. There's been several instances of Freed sprinting out of the guild terrified and a giggling Mira running after him

Drunk Cana is all over him. Freed's tried using his magic on her, but drunk Cana is a different breed and somehow gets passed all the magic he uses on her

Wendy tries to tickle him and Freed usually lets her and will give a giggle pretty early on to make her happy

Laxus openly says it's stupid that everyone is obsessed with tickling Freed so Freed make the foolish mistake of thinking Laxus would not tickle him

It's very rare that Laxus will but it's always at the most random times. Like talking to a client, Laxus will give him a couple pokes. Or during training. Freed lets him do it

You'd think Bix is the worst with it, but it's Evergreen. She's always sneaking up behind him and catching him off guard. She's one of the few people that can surprise him and because of it Freed rarely has the time to defend himself. Evergreen sneak attacks him and leaves before the man can react

Also Lisanna is an absolute demon. Freed is too scared to even stand next to her now

[phoenix-before-the-flame]

They're holdin an intervention for a One(1) Freed Justine.

[moxiepoxart]

I love Freed and Ever’s friendship sm
