#how did this movie felt too much while trolls was nice an easy-going? idk

[mewharley]

I tried to watch the m*tchels vs the m*chines for the first time ever

And damn

It was annoying as fuck

For me, I mean

Like wow, it's rare when an animated movie or, well, its characters are so grating

Maybe it was a combination of narrative and characters

I don't actually Ike that type of narrative where they're trying to tell you how they got to a spot and presenting us the characters

I prefer to actually watch them

And the individual characters idk

The girl was too much like oh no look at me I'm so different to others and didn't fit

While she's like a "cool teen" I guess and idk I stopped when she started describing her dad

Maybe I should have given it more of a chance

But idk

It felt like the movie was trying too much, you know?

NALU prompt-5- Blessing

The day Natsu entered her life, she thought her life would become a living hell but he was a blessing in disguise.

She was a news reporter and he was her cameraman, their channel was well known and always topped the charts and Natsu was pretty famous for creating all the troubles but since he was a close relative of their chief he was not fired but he was always fired up.

Before meeting him she had heard a lot about him, like how in the editing department he edited a article telling good things about a project to a one that wanted to find faults in it, while in printing department a fire broke out and the machines were damaged when he was on duty, while in the writing department he trolled a politician so much that they got notice after its release, and making caricatures; he was horrible at it the chief granddaughter got nightmares about whatever he drew.

She sighed loudly when she learnt that now he wold be working for the channel and not the newspaper department and his work would start as a cameraman, that too to her.

“yo! I am Natsu Dragneel, nice to meet ya”

“Lucy Heartfilia, nice to meet you too.” They shook hands and she noticed how handsome he was, his charcoal black eyes with green flakes in them, toned abs and muscle, his boyish smile and casual attire.

This job was suitable for him, she and her assistant Happy helped him through it he had to struggle initially about the holding and keeping then keeping a firm hold, the focussing to the background whenever needed, zooming in and out.

For the first few days it was just to click good quality picture, and he did take awesome pictures of hers and their interaction increased and he was pretty easy to talk to.

Then for few weeks the shooting was done in the studios practice shooting, talk shows and debates, he was part of them all observing the small details and praising her for her work. She liked how dedicated he was to learn and gain everything he can in all the practice session.

Then they started for their first live telecast, it was about the arrival of a big celebrity and he realised how much struggle it was to get a nice footage and relevant interviews with all the other reporters there, but it was a nice experience.

The training ended and he was kind off professional now and they were doing great work together, now she thought that whatever she had heard about Natsu before were just rumours or bad omen for him and their channel.

   Once they were to get a live telecast but she arrived at the venue late the reason being her hangover from the night before for drinking so much with her friends. Later in the evening she was called to by the chief for explanation, but Natsu promptly said that it was him that was late and Lucy was just waiting for him, after that chief said no more just warned him to take things seriously or change department again, he hastily  cut him off that he would be more sincere next time and there is no need for change of department.

 For the rest of the day she sulked to herself not talking much to him, so after work hours he dragged her to the nearby restaurant on her treat and cheered her up.

“Aww, come on Lucy I didn’t lie I too came late just a bit before you for taking live takes, the old man is just cranky don’t mind him”

“But, this never have happened before.”

“sometimes or a while it is worth a try, don’t always try to be in your good two shoes, just be lively.”

“yeah ofcourse.” She still sulked.

“How many times have you been to the chief before”

“Never for a complain but few times for compliment.”

“That’s a good sign, he is gonna forget it sooner than you, just let it be a little reminder for you and else I will take care of.”

“Natsu-“

“Come on Lucy now chill what has happened now can’t be changed don’t let your mood turn down in this beautiful evening.”

She looked out of window and then at him blushing slightly she nodded.

After their dinner, they got drunk again but this time in limits, it would not have happened last night if it weren’t for Cana but now both of them knew it could endanger their job so three glass each was decided. Like last night Natsu dropped her home, she was letting him to spoil her. In his presence she could be herself chubby, forgetful and relax not as if somebody is going to come at her neck if she did one step wrong. She forgot a lot of things, her keys, their appointments, deadlines some times it was genuine and many a times it was intentional she liked it when he would call her up for those small things and always having her back.

Now she just couldn’t imagine how could she think such a blessing in her life to be a curse.

  Lately they were hanging out a lot, it was as if you can’t contact Lucy then contact Natsu and vice a versa, 99%chances were they would be together.

Nowadays, they were having all three meals, going to shopping, movies, karaoke, and gamming together.

It was the weekend plus the last day of the month so Natsu and Lucy were at her apartment watching a movie.

There was one thing that was bothering her from the time she came to know him better but somehow she could not manage the courage to speak it out, but today she felt the urge to ask him-

“Ne Natsu?”

“Hmm”

“Were you always interested in journalism?”

“Nah! It was just my uncle, I mean our chief after the sudden death off my father I used to live with him, since I was not good at anything he made me join him.”

“I see, but I have noticed that you are a good learner.”

“Huh!”

“I mean when you started working with me, you didn’t even know hoe to handle the camera properly but you were focussed at learning the techniques and now see you are a professional, you put in a bit of effort and you do things perfectly, so I was wondering why such a blessed man had to change departments so frequently?”

He visibly tensed hearing her thoughts and she realised it was bad thing to ask and all her previous thoughts to keep her thoughts to herself was the best thing for them.

“Ah! Let it be, it must be coincidence” she laughed nervously to change the topic but before she could make an attempt he sighed and answered- “It was because of you.”

“What??” she was baffled by his answer, what had she done she kept wondering and he spoke again.

“Before I joined here, I didn’t see the channel nor read the newspaper, but when I joined it first day I say your talk show going on, and all I wanted was to work with you, idk why must be your professionalism I thought, and told uncle the same but he said he knows I am not good at anything, and since the channel and particularly your shows were popular he didn’t want me to be a part of it, so I intentionally did everything so that he would change me from department to department till I got to you.” He smiled widely at her and she was completely speechless, never expecting this to be the reason.

“Hey! Don’t look at me like that.”

“Sorry.”

“Luce?”

“Sorry.”

“Oye! What are you sorry about? Did I just creeped you out? Ha I knew it so didn’t want to let you know but the day when uncle said to change department again, I declined hastily and thought maybe you got to know this too.”

“Huh! This thought never ever crossed my mind.”

“I didn’t want you to know this, still wanted to tell this that you have always interested me Lucy, from day one I liked everything about you and just wanted to know you better.” He looked at her with searching eyes as if her face would answer his silent questions.

“Well I liked you too, and thought whatever I had heard about you were just rumours. I was right and here we are best buddies in the world.” She specified on buddies because it was what he used to call her a lot.

“Yeah buddies.” His voice held a little sarcasm.

“What Is it Natsu?”

“Nah! Nothing let’s go have dinner.” He got up and started for her kitchen but she caught his hand and pulled him back beside him.

“You suddenly seem upset, you can tell me we are best friends.”

“That is the problem Luce, We are best friends. I don��t want this, I want something more, something like… forget it, what I want right now is food.”

This time he rushed to the kitchen.

“Are you trying to ask me out Mr.  Dragneel.”

He freezed on his spot and slowly turned towards her to find her blushing and smirking at him.

“Eh!”

“Well, I always thought that dating was not your cup of tea Natsu, well I was right you can’t even ask a girl out directly.” She interwind her fingers behind her back and walked towards him teasingly.

“And to think the girl you wanted to ask out was me. Ha! I should have known Mr. Oblivious is not so oblivious to the girls around him.”

“stop it Luce.”

“Oh! And from day one wow that was unexpected but expected I am like a fairy .”

“Luceeee”

“You don’t like to loose but it’s a fact the one that falls for the other first is a looser.” And she started to laugh hard.

“ok that’s it”

And he kissed her so fiercely that it took all her breath away and ceasing all her laughter, she never thought his lips would be so soft and her first kiss would so great.

After feeling the need of oxygen they parted, looking each other with hooded eyes,

“I won.” Natsu suddenly said.

“Huh!”

“You are mine now, so I won.”

The word mine kept repeating in her mind and she just nodded blushing profusely.
