#juvia is just the worst

[shieldsurf]

out of the big 4 het/canon fairy tail pairings jerza is by Far the worst imo like. he needs to leave her alone i'm so serious and the fact that mashima wrote in a 7 year age gap for no reason is Not helping... erzas ass is NINETEEN the first time jellal makes an open pass at her i don't care that they used to be the same age it is fucking weird. gruvia is a close second though because while yes we objectify men here sir and i live to serve women juvia's creepiness is really just too much like at a certain point it starts to feel really gross and the fact that gray seems to fall for her by the end of the anime/manga just reeks of coercion. not even bringing up how genuinely awful juvia's character writing is she gets like 5 minutes of being interesting before getting instantly reduced to a creepy stan who completely revolves around gray and has less depth than the average bossfight of the week. i guess its equality that erza and mirajane are some of the best characters in this story (which is admittedly a low bar considering half of their personality is being subjected to the most voyeuristic shots possible) so mashima had to balance it out by making juvia one of the worst

Ft headcanons nobody wanted part 2

-natsu will occasionally get genuinely jealous over his friends owning appliances for heating. Why should they need those things when they have him, if they just call him over her do a way better job then any of those stupid gadgets. He finds out gray owns a hair dryer and immediately becomes a jealous ex girlfriend. He confronts Lucy in her apartment one night acting so serious he she doesn't even get mad that he broke in, then just goes "care to explain this?" And puts a lighter on the table.

- Wendy is very very quiet. Creepily so. Not elaborating but I think you can imagine the kinds of situations this leads to.

- Mira's eyes glow in the dark and it creeps everyone the fuck out

- erza has the worst hoarding problem. Her dorm room is entirely piled floor to ceiling with boxes of meticulously organized random items she refuses to throw out for some reason

young Mira: "alright this is ridiculous why do you even have this"

Young erza: "say what you want but when you need 746 packets of Mcnolias sweet and sour sauce and find your supply baron I'll be laughing"

- levy is one of the few members of the guild who actively sought it out to join. Before fairy tail she was an orphan and a student studying magic. She left to join fairy tail to learn more about magic in general from real world experience.

- laki will sometimes build creepily realistic wooden statues of her guild mates and leave them around in inconspicuous places so when you find them they scare the shit out of you. Sometimes she hides them too well and it takes years to discover them.

- Lucy has actually written several unpublished novels and the only other person who's ever seen them is levy. Lucy thinks their crap but levy carefully annotates every single one.

- laxus used to occasionally be forced to go on jobs with erza and Mira when they were young both to help and to make sure they didn't kill each other and he hated it.

- I think I might have said this before but I firmly believe levy, Lucy, freed and jellal later on all form a book club because they love reading, the problem is they all have vastly different tastes in book so they can never decide what to read each week and usually just end up playing Scrabble and talking shit about their various teammates

"please guys trust me this one's good"

"I am NOT reading Colleen Hoover Lucy and that's final"

- this one's based on city hero but I personally believe erza and Erik find a shocking common ground over motorcycles. Erza likes vehicles in general and Erik took up bike racing as a hobby, since discovering this is the longest they've been able to be in the same room together without someone throwing a punch.

- Wendy visits lamia scale regularly still to hang out with chelia. she usually brings romeo and they all go out to do whatever dumb kid stuff they want. (Tbh I just like her having friends her own age)

-lucy sometimes randomly lets her rich girl's heritage show in random conversation and it's always jarring. You'll be having a normal chill convo with her and then she'll look you dead in the eyes and ask you what colour your personal carriage was growing up.

- Natsu is genuinely a really good cook he just has a terrible taste so nobody wants to eat his food. For reference he only ever cooks his food because he enjoys doing it to him it tastes fine either way.

- if you had asked the fairy tail guild who the scariest guild member was in early season 1 the answers would have been erza, guildarts, laxus etc all the usual suspects. Once season 2 starts however the answer is unanimous. It's juvia. Juvia is fucking terrifying when she gets mad. You don't realize how scary water can be until it's filling your lungs and as your vision blurs until all you can see is her merciless stare.

- Mira and freed can drink blood for demon reasons. gray can too after getting devil slayer but he thinks its gross. Surprisingly so can gajeel because of the high iron content.

- gray the type of guy who's bed has only the smallest thinnest blanket on his bed and usually it's on the ground cuz he gets too hot

- meanwhile erza is the type of girl to have so many pillows, blankets and plushies on her bed you wonder how she fucking sleeps in it. Mf has a NEST.

- Lucy isn't even surprised anymore when she finds people in her house, she doesn't know how they keep getting in and honestly she doesn't care anymore she's to tired to deal with it.

- freed plays a lot of really fucking weird instruments. Idk it just seems like something he would do.

- bixlow can speak most languages and it's always really surprising when he randomly says smth like "oh yea I can speak ancient nirvid no prob" like that's totally normal

- if laxus and freed ever did get together (in my heart it's cannon) evergreen and bixlow would be their biggest haters. Yea they love them and they're happy for them but also EW. GROSS. GET A ROOM.

ʚ fairy tail headcanons ɞ

ʚ these all range from canon-compliant to pure fanfiction lala land ɞ

ʚ this ended up being so much longer than i planned ɞ

ʚɞ

the b team from the gmg hang out regularly and are all very good friends. mirajane, cana, and juvia have special "making fun of laxus" privileges that not even bickslow has.

laxus is genuinely embarrassed about how he used to talk about erza and she uses it against him very often. "oh, yes, because how can i - a mere woman - possibly accomplish this task myself?" "fine! i'll open the pickle jar!"

cain instinct is strong in the fairy tail guild. everyone is resisting the urge to smack each other, and most of them aren't very good at it. even laxus can be a target, especially after he chilled out. the most surprising display was when levy smacked him square in the head with one of her books, and he just yelled at her, or when cana stared at erza for a few seconds before smacking her across the face.

sex education was, probably, the worst thing to happen to those who grew up in the guild hall. either makarov didn't give enough details or he gave way too many.

lucy and gray are the biggest gossipers in the guild. they know everyone's secrets and while they don't blackmail people, they never hide something from the other. if they're staring at you and whispering, they are talking mad shit or they found out something about you.

juvia and natsu get along alarmingly well. they're not even sure how it works, just that they're so different that it kind of makes them perfect for each other (as friends).

natsu is sting's celebrity crush and he thinks he's doing a great job at hiding it. he's not. everyone knows. rogue knows, lector knows, all of sabertooth knows, all of fairy tail knows, sorcerer weekly knows, natsu knows. no one has the heart to tell him.

juvia doesn't have romantic feelings for lyon but she wants them to be friends so badly. not to get closer to gray, just because she thinks he's really cool and easy to talk to. lyon is so smug about it and gray wants to throttle him for it.

erza and mira's rivalry is alive in the tiniest of ways. they're always having small contests like "i bet i can wash this cup faster than you," or "i bet lucy says hi to me first." there's no hard feelings involved, they just can't help but be a little competitive with each other.

erza was illiterate for a really long time, way longer than she should have been, and makarov felt awful for not realizing it sooner. she was just looking at the reward numbers and going with the flow. on top of that, she has really bad dyslexia, something that somehow went under the radar.

related to the previous headcanon, lucy eventually realizes that the reason natsu has such bad grammar and reading comprehension is because he was tutored by erza, and erza's so bad at writing and understanding big words because she has undiagnosed dyslexia. so takes the time to slowly teach them how to read more complicated things, showing erza ways to read with her dyslexia, and giving them handwriting lessons. the first time erza writes a comprehendible letter is to jellal, and she's absolutely ecstatic about it. natsu is thrilled that he can finally read lucy's book without feeling stupid.

gray teaches wendy a lot about social cues and how to survive in a city as big as magnolia. she grew up very sheltered in a tiny village, so it makes sense that she struggles with "big city living." she's very appreciative and gray is just happy he can be of use.

gray stopped smoking because he heard lucy say she finds smokers unattractive. (gray, in the manga, smoked for a bit, and it's explicitly stated that, at least for the first handful of arcs, he was interested in lucy).

natsu started having romantic feelings for lucy during their fight against kain, but he didn't realize he was in love with her until he watched future lucy die. lucy didn't realize she had feelings for natsu until she realized she was in love with him, which was after the events with the eclipse gate. (the specific moments i'm talking about: kain | future lucy | post-eclipse gate)

between her and gajeel, juvia is the older one. she doesn't give it much thought but gajeel sees her in a big sister role, and has found himself accidentally referring to her as his older sister. which he would rather die than let her find out about.

when asked who she would go after if gray wasn't in the picture, most people expect juvia to say she could never picture a world without gray, but she will look you dead in the eye and, without any hesitation, say, "erza."

gray and loke had something very gay going on before loke went back to the celestial spirit world. the sexual tension between the two of them in this scene is too strong, they've fucked, kissed at least.

when gray realized he liked juvia back, he had a full mental breakdown for several reasons. a fear of intimacy, a fear of losing her like he has every single woman he's ever cared about, and because he just couldn't believe her very weird and very aggressive flirting tactics worked.

in the same vein, evergreen was inconsolable for days when she realized she was in love with elfman. laxus, freed, and bickslow have never been more worried about her mental well-being.

all of crime sorciere have a betting pool on when jellal and erza will get their heads out of their asses. they've had to place new bets several times because they're still dancing around each other. at this point, the betting pool is getting tense, and someone is going to lose so much money.

cobra and jellal kissed once because they were both extremely drunk and extremely sad about their respective crushes. neither of them remember it but the rest of crime sorciere can never forget watching cobra shove his tongue down jellal's throat.

makarov has said "you're like the son i never had" way too many times for it to be an accident.

elfman wants to be a girl dad so bad. he absolutely loves having sisters and he's obsessed with the idea of having a daughter to spoil and dote on.

gray and juvia have a kid before getting married...whoops.

going against the grain and literally what mashima has said, and saying that natsu and lucy have a son before having a daughter. he's a lot like lucy while their daughter is almost exactly like natsu.

yukino is a raging lesbian and is endlessly distressed by how many people think she's in love with sting. her month was ruined when minerva congratulated them on their relationship. completely ignoring the fact that sting is a gay man and is openly down bad for rogue.

rufus and orga have been dating for almost three years and literally no one knows.

lucy cried for three hours when she found out about anna and ichiya.

laxus and freed are in a queer-platonic relationship. laxus is aroace and has no interest in being romantically involved with someone, but he likes the dynamics of dating someone, and freed just likes having someone to spoil (back massages, compliments, all the things freed does in canon).

natsu has ended up in so many situations where he's put in feminine clothing, that he's actually started to kind of like it. he really doesn't mind the idea of wearing a skirt or letting lucy do his makeup. lucy is obsessed with it, and they sometimes do each other's makeup.

romeo is a trans boy and canon is my enemy. macao is extremely supportive and is always introducing romeo as enthusiastically as he can. "this is my son, romeo. isn't he so handsome? just the most handsome boy out there. i'm so proud of my son. he's the best." it's as embarrassing as it is endearing.

gray gets really bad joint pain after using his demon slayer magic, because the demon ice is so cold that it hurts him. thankfully, juvia is always happy to give him massages and crack his back.

natsu had the fattest crush on laxus from the age of thirteen to the very end of the battle of fairy tail arc. everyone just thought he had too much faith in his guild mates, but it was actually because he was so horrendously down bad for laxus that he couldn't accept that he was kind of a psycho.

gray tries so hard to seem cool and nonchalant that he accidentally flirts with basically everyone he interacts with. he thinks he's being cool and mysterious, instead he's making people fall in love with him.

loke tells lucy she's beautiful all the way into her sixties, and he means it every single time.

jude, technically, didn't take layla's maiden name, they just had the most unbelievable coincidence in the world where layla's last name was "heartfilia," while jude's was "heartphilia," so neither of them really saw a point in changing their last names.

juvia and gajeel were not only introduced to the wonders of genuine friendship and family after joining fairy tail, but also the amazing world of weed by cana and bickslow. laxus will never forget walking into his apartment with the thunder legion for the first time in years, and being met with juvia, gajeel, and cana on the couch, passing a blunt, while bickslow was raiding the kitchen.

gajeel and levy elope, only bringing lily and juvia with them as their witnesses. lucy was a little (a lot) insulted by it, but she eventually understood why levy did what she did when her and natsu decided to do the exact same thing, and only bring along their team. basically, elfman and evergreen, and gray and juvia are like the only couples to have a ceremony.

fairy tail has a lot of lawsuits and property damage bills, and freed, levy, and lucy almost had collective aneurysms trying to get through and organize them all. the guild has never spent more money on coffee.

lucy eventually takes advantage of the fact she has a very powerful kick and gets a black belt in taekwondo, a type of martial art that focuses mostly on kicking. her raw leg power combined with knowing what she's doing AND her heels? deadly.

(cw for child abuse on this one, skip if needed) minerva has such a massive appetite because jiemma would starve her both as punishment but also to "make her stronger." her body just never feels full, like the food will be taken away from her again.

sabertooth members calling minerva "m'lady" started as a serious thing to show respect, but now it's a running joke where everyone is trying to be as obnoxious as possible with it.

it's kind of implied that rogue is (at least) sexually attracted to minerva, and the fact larcade's "find out who's a virgin" spell hits him right after seeing minerva being affected by it, makes me think he lost his virginity to her. it was awkward and objectively bad but he's still glad it happened. sting drank an entire bottle of tequila when he found out about it.

getting 1 v. 2-d by natsu was the biggest ego crash sting and rogue have ever, and will ever experience. they will never be able to live it down. it will follow them to their graves. please never talk about how egotistical they used to be, they will cry from embarrassment.

minerva calls everyone's boyfriend their "boy toy" because, and i quote, "i don't respect men."

juvia is the best gift giver you will ever meet. she just has a way of always knowing what's perfect for someone, and it's a mutual agreement to always make her go last for gift giving so everyone else feels better about their gift for at least a few minutes.

natsu is the kind of guy to remember something someone said to him once in passing and randomly bring it up weeks or months later. his brain is a library of miniscule information about the people around him.

gajeel talks trash about levy's romance novels but will also be sneaking peeks over her shoulder and trying not to react to various moments. he is deeply invested in the plot twists and the main characters' romance.

while he's traveling, gildarts will buy cana a gift from every town his visits, which results in him having about a pound of knickknacks, clothes, and alcohol for her when he comes back. she pretends to be embarrassed about it but she secretly loves being spoiled by him.

gildarts and cana go on daddy-daughter dates and she'd rather drink bleach than let other people find out about it. gildarts is just happy to be there.

natsu and cana have had this conversation: "so, are we, like, siblings now?" "excuse me?" "because, like, gildarts is basically my dad, and he's your dad. so..." "we are not siblings, natsu." "okay, didn't know you liked being an only child so much." "go fuck yourself."

gildarts knows lucy is going to be his daughter in law. he doesn't know if it's going to be from her marrying natsu or from her marrying cana.

wakaba would sneak teenage gray cigarettes. erza, mirajane, and makarov almost killed him when they found out about it.

mira is aroace, feeling absolutely no romantic attraction and being sex repulsed, but she is absolutely obsessed with other peoples' love lives. she thrives on it.

lisanna is fairy tail's resident lesbian and is a little in love with every girl she meets.

[lymmielove]

fairy tail headcanons bc why not

Natsu has the neatest handwriting out of the kids the grew up in Fairy Tail (Gray, Erza, Cana, Levy, etc..), Erza has the worst one.

Romeo's last name is actually Rose. His Dad and His Mom divorced, and he chose to have his Mom's last name since she raised him better anyways. So, his full name's Romeo Rose. Wendy told him his name was pretty. He blushed with pink fire coming out of his nose

Speaking of Romeo and Wendy, they're besties. They be gossiping about guild drama behind all they backs. Wendy knows about shit she shouldn't because Romeo was both literally and figuratively born in the guild

Lucy has Aquarius. Yukino has Scorpio. The two wizards are straight pen pals bc of it

Loke and Aries are dating. Ophiuchus was the only Zodiac to know.

Rogue cannot handle alcohol. He drinks mocktails

When the Barbie Movie came out, The kids who grew up in Fairy Tail dressed up in extravagant pink. Gajeel, Lucy, and Juvia went to go see Oppenheimer.

Romeo, Wendy, and Sherria are the friends you wouldnt expect to be friends

During when the gang was gone for seven years, Romeo got all of their clothes from when they were kids. He keeps them in his room. The gang knows, but doesn't comment on it seeing as they practically raised the kid.

Romeo's mom is a member of Quatro Cerberus. She was banished from Magnolia on something she didn't commit. After The GMG, she was allowed back. The Fairy Kid gang calls her "Auntie Enno"

Levy is the most "like that" out of the Fairy Kids. She has a glock and everything. When she was younger she always wanted the smoke.

Freed is the most "like that" out of the Thunder Legion. The Wizard Saints fear him. The Council fears him. Laxus loves him.

Bickslow's babies have deemed Lisanna as they mama. Bickslow doesn't mind.

Lisanna came back to the guild and immediately turned bi. Too many hot ladies and pretty men.

Yukino's first kiss was Minerva when they were like 12. Yukino didn't know it was Minerva until she met her in Sabertooth.

Minerva, Sting, Rogue, Orga, Rufus, and Yukino all had a plan to try and off Jiemma. Sting just snapped enough to get him early.

Yukino actually constantly compares herself to Lucy a lot. Yukino's dream was to get all 13 zodiac keys, but Lucy has them, so she backed off. She came very close to breaking all her contracts even after when she had her convo with Lucy. Her and Ophiuchus had a very heartfelt convo afterwards.

All dragons have a "dragon thing." Wendy can stop storms in their tracks several countries away. Gajeel's a human metal detector and magnet. Sting's a human glowstick. Rogue can bend rooms to his will if they're pitch black. Natsu has the highest spice tolerance in all of Earthland, AND he sheds scales regularly that can be mini-bombs if used correctly.

All dragon slayers (THAT HAD DRAGON PARENTS) are 85% dragon and 15% human. I didn't make the rules. They all have tails and horns and visible scales.

Dragon Slayers have a hoard network where they share treasures (i'll elaborate on this later)

[cecenyss]

You know people complain a lot about how NaLu never sails but I don’t think that we appreciate Fairy Tail as a series where romance basically never happens.

The only ships I can think of being portrayed as explicitly romantic—even if they never actually happen they’re clearly meant to be interpreted as romantic—are Gray/Juvia, Elfman/Evergreen, Jellal/Erza, Levy/Gajeel,,,, literally wracking my head and I can’t think of anything else. Which yeah four main ships sounds like a lot but there are so many characters in Fairy Tail they introduce new people every arc and most of them come back later. All of them have fans that adore them. And these are the only real ships I can think of.

Maybe Erik/Kinana? But I don’t remember ever seeing that confirmed in the anime. I think it might’ve been said in 100yq but idk I never got very far.

Anyway my point is romance is basically never the main focus and that’s such a breath of fresh air. And the ships that are there never really feel like they’re just there to be ‘in love’ their relationship always has some weight to it

Gruvia is is I think the worst of them and even then Gray means a lot to Juvia in a real way outside of her nonsensical obsession with him, he chased the rain away and that’s significant.

It’s just like,,, idk. Media is always so romance focused and it’s so nice to have something that isn’t. I think that’s why I keep going back to it

[gralunaisland]

I have a question.

Have you ever thought to yourself or any antis thought to themselves that it’s okay to like toxic ships in fiction?

Mashima never said a day in his life that his ships weren’t toxic and were healthy so idk why yall be so upset that people like these things?

Toxic ships in exist in fiction and real life. I love reading toxic relationships in fiction. I eat it up but I understand that’s not okay for real life.

If you truly want to see toxic relationships in fiction read Korean comics. They have some extremely toxic relationships in their stories and I love them all because it’s only fiction. It’s a reason why things like this exist because people like me exist to read it.

Is It Okay to Like Toxic Ships in Fiction?

Oh, this is a fantastic question, Anon.

I have never said that no one is allowed to like toxic ships in fiction. Ever. In fact, I've said the contrary, where, yeah, even I like some toxic ships (excluding things like p*doph*lia etc.) where people clearly aren't good for each other but it's an entertaining ship regardless as long as you know it is immoral in real life. If you know you'd never support certain toxic relationships in real life, but still like certain toxic characters together, there's not much harm to it.

My biggest issue with the Pro gr///via fandom?

It's that seemingly most of them deny that gr///via is a toxic ship in the first place. That, and some of them will attack anyone who says otherwise.

That's part of the reason why I've dedicated this blog to parsing gr///via's toxicity, to show why so many Antis have issues with it and because there are so many people who refuse to believe that gr///via is toxic in any way, shape, or form.

I've actually talked to Pros who acknowledge that gr///via is a toxic ship, but that they just like it for some reason or another, and I totally respect that because they realize it's a toxic ship. While I hate the "it's just fiction" argument because it's a dreadful slippery slope, all in all, gr///via really is just a fictional ship between two people of the same age.

You say Mashima has never said his ships were healthy, but that doesn't matter, and that's never been an argument that I've made, that Mashima said he'd make healthy ships (which of course he didn't). Most authors don't go around explicitly saying that anyway, so that's another reason why that is a straw man argument.

However, another part of my issue with gr///via is that it's a canon ship, one that Mashima pushes heavily, and it is portrayed as something to be desired.

There are plenty of toxic ships people make up on their own, fanon, where the author never intended for it to be a thing, in which case it's the fans' fault for making up such a thing, but the fact that the author of FT makes juvia a complete scumbag but makes it so that she ultimately gets the object of her desires teaches the very wrong lesson. He also tries to make her pass as a "good person", having everyone love her and cheer her on no matter what she does to them.

If you make a character do very toxic things, but also make them appear good to other people in the show and make it so they never face any consequences for their actions (the worst consequence juvia ever gets from her sick behavior is some sweatdrops from other characters, but no one ever stops her and many in fact encourage her), readers/viewers might get the impression that that character really is a good person, and that their actions should be emulated to get their desired results. Mashima has even apparently said in an interview that Gray is somewhat of a self-insert, so the fact that he gave Gray juvia as his love interest says a lot about what Mashima desires or fetishizes.

"If you truly want to see toxic relationships in fiction read Korean comics."

I have, and that has nothing to do with this conversation. "If I truly want to see toxic relationships", all I have to do is watch Fairy Tail and suffer through every gr///via/juvia scene.

Thanks for your ask!

[dontmatterblog]

To my fellow Gruvians always remember when an anti comes into our space saying that Gray and Juvia shouldn’t be together and that Juvia is the worst, just remember the story belongs to Mashima.

Mashima agrees with us. I’m done arguing about my ship. NOTHING THEY SAY WON’T CHANGE THE FACT GRUVIA IS CANON!

That will be my reply for now on. They are canon and keep it pushing. It makes this one person on twitter who can’t stay out our spaces extra upset when we say that. I love that we can say that.

Gray loves Juvia and Juvia loves Gray. Juvia met Silver and was told to take care of Gray by him. Silver approves of Juvia and all these are canon facts. Nothing an anti will say to change that.

[overtlydinosaurian]

ok i think this is like the third time ive complained talked about anime but ive decided to rewatched a shounen from my childhood... Fairy Tail. And I was bracing for the worst, but I'm actually quite pleasantly surprised? Yeah it's "power of friendship overcomes all" like Naruto and stuff, and yes there's a few pervy characters (I know "few" sounds like a lot, but there's HUNDREDS of characters) Also... yes sure some of the female characters are a little sexist but they really do have quirky personalities. It's awesome to see the "straight man" character be a woman (Lucy), and it's FANTASTIC to have the "big strong badass" be a woman (Erza) and it's fantastic they don't get stuck just fighting other women, they get to defeat the BBEG and be badass too! Erza carries the show FOR REAL, she gets to be a badass who is loyal to her friends and would die for her ideals.. just like the men get to do.

Also it's fantastic for there to be a 50/50 split of female characters in the main protagonist group, and I think later it actually skews more female (I checked- YES IT DOES! 4/7, or 5/8 depending if you count Juvia as part of Team Natsu) So while it's not perfect nor is it exactly "feminist" I think Fairy Tail is a pretty good Shounen overall, and I do recommend it. Erza alone is the reason to watch I adore her.

[smokerswifey]

OK this has been on my mind for a while

For the past month, some really toxic graylu shippers and anti gruvia/ juvia's have been getting really toxic on tumblr ( and twitter )

Especially @graylunation ( who is a grown ass woman, her age will be relevant later in this post )

Obviously the problem isn't the fact that these people love graylu and dislike gruvia and juvia .

Everyone is entitled to their opinion and graylu make a good looking couple so tbh I can't blame them .

And them not liking gruvia and juvia for various reasons is not anyone's business at all .

But THE problem is that they have been BOMBARDING juvia and gruvia positive posts with hateful and frankly disgusting comments which is such a pain in the ass because as I said before ppl are allowed to like what they want without being slandered and bullied .

And specifically@graylunation has been the one, bothering us the most, leaving every single gruvia/juvia post with hateful comments and it has been SUCH a PAIN .

The thing that pisses me off the most is that she's a huuuuuuge hypocrite ! She constantly whines on posts, telling ppl to stop criticising Graylu shippers, she tells people that her page is specifically about graylu and asks for no hate comments, when she literally hates on every gruvia/juvia post and goes on gruvia/juvia pages despite not liking it just to harass the person who created the page ! Hypocrital much ??

The worst thing is she keeps calling JUVIA a R@PIST ??? Does she even know what R@PE means ???

This is so unfunny how can you compare a lovestruck girl and her temporary unrequited crush to a r@pist and r@pe victim .

The furthest Juvia has done touching Gray is just giving him surprise hugs and she lets him go when he complains to much, how can someone in their right mind equate that to r@pe ??

And wherever there is a fanart or official art with bby boy Greige she keeps saying Juvia must've had to grape him to have his babies like wtf is wrong with you, his biggest fantasy is starting a fam with her, how delusional could you be .

I can't believe someone would bring up a topic as unfunny R@PE just because you're bitter a fictional pairing you liked didn't end up together like dude you're a grown ass woman, it's time question you're behaviour .

Honestly this woman sucks ASS and i feel rlly bad for other Graylu shippers being associated with such a wackjob .

This whole ordeal has been so annoying and I hope it stops .

[moeruhoshi]

Gray bit the inside of his cheek, trying not to make it obvious as he glared across the classroom. His eyes focused on Juvia, who sat way in the front...right next to Natsu.

How the teacher didn't see either of them passing notes back and forth, he had no idea. His lip twitched every time he watched their fingers brush against the other, the pen in his hand surely about to crack in half.

That idiot never liked to pay attention in class, worse now that Lucy was stuck in a different class. Last year all that slanty-eyed idiot did was flash a dopey smile at her, distracting them both from their lectures.

While the rest of their friends were across the hall, he was stuck watching his worst nightmare unfold. Juvia shouldn't give that idiot the time of day.

"Quit bothering Juvia."

"Who said I was bothering her?" Natsu threw a sideways glance as he bit into his yakisoba sandwich. Gajeel scooted back in his seat, keeping himself out of the path of Gray's glare.

"You're distracting her in class; I'd say that's bothering her." He huffed, clicking his tongue under his breath.

"She's the one who passed me a note first," The pink-haired student rolled his eyes. "If you're so bent, just tell her you like her already. I'm allowed to talk to my friend if I feel like it."

Gray squished a riceball in his fist, fuming as Natsu went on to enjoy his lunch without worry. Of course trying to talk sense into an idiot wouldn't work.

[fairytail-multishipper]

Do you hate GrUvia and juvia

short answer; yes.

i am severely disappointed in the way juvia’s character evolved (devolved) into where she ended up, and pairing up with Gray is the worst thing for her character. She’s an orbital character who was written into being gray’s love interest (and a poor one at that) instead of really being her own character.

gr/uvia is a ship between two very traumatized characters who need therapy and not a relationship. gray is someone has gone through so much that he kinda allows juvia to trample all over him and his feelings instead of voicing and acknowledging his own. juvia is someone who had to keep her emotions down for so long that now she has to force them out and drown out other’s so that she feels seen and heard.

juvia does not love gray, she’s in love with the idea of him. you cannot convince gray is truly in love with juvia, i see it more as he has convinced himself that juvia has essentially earned him, like a prize, and he might as well just go with it, because he doesn’t hate her.

that being said, i love my juvia and i think she and gray would actually be a good couple, but you’ll never see me write them together.

gruvia week 2023 day four: delirium

~right in your arms, i'm home (where i'm safe and sound)~

“It couldn’t be you… She told Juvia you’re dead… She told Juvia that I’m the one who  killed you…”

A ghost.

That was the most probable thing the apparition was.

The vengeful ghost of her beloved had come for her to take her soul.

And she’d willingly give it to him, to end this suffering. After all, she didn’t want to live a life without Gray in this world.

“Gray-sama… be Juvia’s executioner. I have no right to live after killing you.”

Juvia closed her eyes, submitting to her fate. The world became dark and quiet, and she’s all alone. All alone, just like the old days. She let the tears fall.

This was her punishment.

                                                          ~0~

Blinded by rage, Gray went to every neighboring town Juvia was last seen. He didn’t take the news of Juvia’s disappearance lightly and began his own rescue mission to find her.

It was in the middle of the night during their trip back home when they got a call from the guild. Their panicked expressions made Gray and the others instantly awake. Everything was quiet except for the crickets outside of their inn. And it was then when the master dropped the news like a bomb.

Even when he didn’t exactly know the details of Juvia’s disappearance, Gray got up and put his clothes on swiftly. He  headed for the door without a word. His friends called out to him, but he continued to move forward. They reasoned out that they needed to go together and it’s better to go in the morning, but all their words fell on deaf ears. It was still six hours before sunrise and they’re asking him to wait? A lot can happen in a minute, heck, even a second, and he’s supposed to start to search for Juvia after six hours? No way.

“Either you go with me or you come right after me. I don’t care what you’ll do, but I’m gonna start to search for Juvia now.”

His team stood up and got ready to follow his lead.

                                                         ~0~

Looking for her was easier said than done.

Nobody saw Juvia after she got her reward in the town hall five months ago. The mayor said they offered her to stay for free for a vacation after she succeeded in her job but Juvia declined. That was the last time the townspeople saw her.

Five months… It was already a really long time. What if?

What if…

Gray shook his head and covered his face with his hands. No, it wouldn’t help him find Juvia if he thought of the worst possibilities. He was already restless with her disappearance. He didn’t need anymore stress by thinking of that happening.

While walking near another town where she was last seen, Gray noticed a young boy looking at him. He followed the line of sight of the boy and concluded he was looking at his chest. Over the years, people had stared at him because of his lack of clothing, but he didn’t care about that anymore. However, the stare of the boy fixated on his chest. It looked like he’s trying to remember something, and it made Gray ask him if needed something from him.

“Is that a guildmark, sir?”

Gray just nodded and continued his walk, because the priority right now was finding Juvia. The priority was finding her and bringing her safely back home.

“I saw someone with the same mark on her thigh. Are you perhaps related?

Gray stopped in his tracks and faced the boy.

That description… could it be?

“Where is she? Is she alright? Is she… alive?” Gray’s voice cracked a little when he asked the questions. Cold sweat formed on his forehead as he waited for the boy to answer.

The weight of the world on his shoulders got lifted when the boy answered him.

“My mama’s taking care of the lady. But she’s out of it every time she wakes up.”  The young boy led Gray to his hut. “I think the lady needs to see someone she knows when she wakes up. Let’s go!”

Gray followed the boy with only one thing in mind.

He’s gonna see Juvia after a long time.

                                                         ~0~

The young boy’s mother led Gray to a room where Juvia was sleeping. He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw how thinner and paler she became.

“What… what happened to her exactly?”

Placing the basin full of warm water near the bed, the mother began to wash Juvia’s body gently. “We don’t know entirely, but my husband found her near the foot of the mountains nearby. No one from the village sets foot there. It’s said to give you the worst of your nightmares in mere minutes.”

“It’s good if you stay with her for a while. I’ll prepare dinner, please look after her.” Gray nodded as she closed the door of the room, never letting go of Juvia’s hands.

Gray’s grip tightened on her hands. Heaven knew what she saw while she was there. He knew Juvia was strong, but to relive the worst of her nightmares… even he wouldn’t be able to handle that head on.

A groan from the sleeping Juvia brought him back to his senses.

“Juvia,” he whispered as he saw her open her eyes. She groaned again, and tried to focus her eyes on the owner of the voice.

“Gray-sama?” No, it couldn’t be him…

“It couldn’t be you… She told Juvia you’re dead… She told Juvia that I’m the one who killed you…”

His heart ached with the suffering she’s in. The tears in her eyes, the pain in her voice… He shared it all with her. Gray felt her suffering. Gray should feel her suffering, because he didn’t want her to suffer alone.

“Gray-sama… be Juvia’s executioner. I have no right to live after killing you.”

“Don’t say that!” He wrapped his arms around her. “Don’t say that, please, Juvia.” Gray sighed and rubbed Juvia’s back to ease the sobbing of the woman.

“Let’s live long together. Please.”

                                                         ~0~

Juvia's whole body ached.

For a moment, she didn’t register where she was. All she knew was that she’s in a dark, warm room with a stranger sitting next to her.

She blinked, and suddenly the memory of the nightmare began to fill her mind again. Images of how Gray died during the dragon attack, because he pushed her away. Of how he died again when he stabbed himself to get themselves out of the ice lock. She remembered the wounds, the pools of blood, the cold body without any sign of breathing.

Her chest tightened as she tried to push the nightmares away. She pushed herself up to sit on the bed and let her tears fall.

The warm feeling of a hand rubbing her back calmed her down.

“Juvia, it’s me.”

But Juvia didn’t want to look. What if it’s another trick her mind was playing on her? She couldn't handle anymore nightmares.

“Juvia, it’s me, Gray.” He repeated. “I’m alive and breathing and you didn’t kill me, okay?” Gray caressed her hair then massaged her scalp after to calm her down.

“So please, please, go home with me. I’ll do my best to keep you safe from everything.”

After one last sigh, Juvia gathered up the courage to look at him.

“Gray-sama…” Tears pooled at the corner of Juvia’s eyes.

She hugged him so tight like her life depended on it. And Gray just let her. He was so relieved she was okay. The whole five months was a scare but he was glad she’s safe from the effects of the extended nightmares. But she still needed to restore her energy back. Hopefully, she’d let him restore her to health for a brief time before going back. He was thinking they could stay in their cabin first before they went back to Fairy Tail. Fresh air from the woods would be good for her.

“Gray-sama,” Her whisper snapped him out of reverie.

“Yeah?”

“Sorry for worrying you and the others.”

“Don’t think about that too much. I already contacted them and let them know you’re already safe with me.”

They stayed hugging each other for some time. Juvia’s eyes were drooping. She was still tired and needed a lot of rest. Gray noticed her slipping arms and laid her on the bed.

“Gray-sama?”

“Hm?”

“You know you’re my home right? Whenever I’m with you, I am home.”

A small smile graced Gray’s lips.

“Rest up. You can spend time with your home when you have your energy back.”

Juvia closed her eyes and let her body rest. The wonderful scenery where she and Gray were lounging in their old cabin filled her mind.

Just a little silly Gajeel and Fira moment.

-

Okay, so he may have been a little tipsy. Though to be fair, one hardly ever walks away from Fairy Tail's bar without a little buzz.

So at the moment, Gajeel felt there was nothing wrong with him lying across the counter. Lounging on his back, legs crossed, arms folded behind his head. Just people watching and listening in on conversations the buzz with make him forget later.

Fira seemed to object to it. And after some back and forth bickering, she gave her ultimatum.

"Get off the bar, Gajeel. Or I'll have to make you."

"Then make me," he challenges with a brazen grin and iron scales snaking up his figure. Good luck moving him with those.

In hindsight, he'll admit that was a poor choice of words. Possibly the alcohol talking. A taunt like that towards a monster always makes them more ruthless.

But in present time, he's not expecting consequences. He doesn't know what to expect when Fira's hands pin his right arm and waist. The strange touch only perplexes him until she-

('Oh that insufferable prick!')

-delivers a honest to gods raspberry to that precarious spot of his ribs that deserves to be tried for treason. The sensation reverberates right through his scales like they aren't there and his soul flees his body. Just fucks right off to socialize with the denizens of hell and leaves the rest of him wanting to jump out of his skin.

He does not squeal.

Abso-fucking-lutely not.

The sound Gajeel does make, however, is some twisted cross between a squawk, a wheeze, and the dulcet tones of a screaming goat. Honestly he would've been less embarrassed by the alternative.

He certainly isn't on the bar anymore.

No sir, he ran off on a quest to escape the malevolent monster of raspberry tickles and, in record time, arrived at the final destination that is floor.

This is a good reminder that he still hasn't forgiven Juvia for revealing that weakness of his. That sure won't be changing anytime soon.

The glare he sends up towards Fira is dirty enough to break a mirror. "You are the worst."

The asshole sits with her stupid drink and her stupid smug grin. "Mhm, truly terrible."

[bumblebeehug]

as much as i love to shake my finger at Natsu for leaving Lucy that one year, i kinda feel like he’s not the worst person in this scenario. We all know the things he went through and wanted to battle on his own before returning to his guild, and its honestly reasonable (though never let that man write a letter again, who says bye like that lmao)

can we please talk about how Lucy ended up completely alone when the guild disbanded??? She has loads of friends in that guild, but Levy ran off with Gajeel (they wanted to shag so fair enough), Gray and Erza kept in contact, Juvia went along with Gray, and the Strauss-siblings stuck together as well. Wendy went to Chelia (which is also fair enough because they’re cute together and deserve to hang every second of the year) and she wasn’t alone since she had Carla from the guild with her. Obviously idk what the other guild mates did, but literally no matter what they went off doing, why couldn’t anyone keep in contact with Lucy?

Our girl was literally left completely alone. Like yes, she has her spirits which never makes her truly alone (her words) but now that Loke mostly spends his time in the celestial realm, it isn’t quite the same to say that he kept contact and is a guild member.

Like honestly, they all owe her an apology. She wasn’t exactly undercover either, she was literally working as a journalist - I’m pretty sure Juvia said she read all Lucy’s articles (maybe it wasn’t Juvia but someone said it). So why couldn’t they just talk to her? Reach out, ask how she’s doing.

Lucy didn’t have the guts to do that because she felt like everyone had moved on with their lives. She felt like she was alone in feeling like she still was stuck in between normal life and the guild life. She did what she could to know where her friends were, and made sure that they all were safe (as safe as a mage can be) and in my opinion her reason for not reaching out makes sense. Theirs don’t (some of them do. Gray and Erza were doing that crazy undercover mission - though why didn’t they let Lucy join? Another question raised lol, and Wendy is too timid in her personality and probably felt like she was trespassing into Lucy’s private life if she considered contacting her, so her reason checks out as well).

i’m probably reaching as usual (and also rambling as usual, why do my posts get so long) but lucy is my babe and she’s been through so much that i just want her happy. peace out ✌🏼

fear/trauma headcanons because i want them to suffer

gray and juvia have violent flashbacks whenever they see collars like what invel used

gray is far more violent than juvia

gray is more likely to attack anyone who tries to help him viciously unless its juvia but then hed think she was like the ur that neinhart summoned and will be cautious to the point of weak attacks meant to keep her away

juvia will lash out wildly but eventually will curl into a ball (as a human or as water depends on if she could hear gray) and simply cry. rain is summoned

canonically gajeel views crucification as his worst memories. headcanonically he gets shaky and stuttery and he cant tell if its a panic attack or not but he doesnt really tell anyone bc he thinks he deserves it for what he did to levy jet and droy

natsu gets very anxious around any flame

when natsu was with igneel he would have a complete meltdown whenever he saw fire. made it very difficult to learn yknow fire dragon slaying magic.

after natsu got to fairy tail he was mostly fine with his own flames but like. macao. noooooooo. hell even the fireplace. noooooo no no nonononono

he never knew why until he got some memories unlocked during the alvarez shit. then he still had a fear of uncontrolled fire/his fire becoming uncontrollable

wendy will stay awake all night sometimes, trying to find/cast enchantments that will protect her mind and body from ever being taken over/altered ever again

erza used to get angry whenever she saw any chains. even the tiny ones for a necklace. she got angry to cover her fear of them. a pickaxe also gets her angry

levy will avoid going near long pieces of anything hard. shes scared shell trip and fall and impale herself on them. jet and droy used to be like that but after the 7 years they just became super careful around it

lucy is so close to making a deal with the celestial spirit king to allow gate keys of all kinds to be requip-ible. she doesnt care what the price is she just wants to make sure she will never lose her friends again. unless the price is losing a friend again in which case she might just murder the fucking king

after the last acnologia thing at least gray lucy and happy are afraid of literally Everything when someone's behind them. if the person laughs if they talk if they walk if they trip if they do nothing. they think theyre either being attacked or kidnapped or killed

laxus and erik (maybe sting and rogue too) are scared of lacrima

when the communication lacrima, the only one they ever bothered with, was big enough that youd have trouble carrying it with both hands, they were mostly okay. just had to have it across the room with no one else in the room

after the com lacrima became tiny phones they just. never use it. or if they are forced to then its as far from them as possible. they wont hold it. its great bc if the phone is close to their ear then its way too loud but its terrible bc they have to yell responses unless its another slayer

pantherlily will not go near laxus. if someones holding him and they go to walk past laxus he will get out of their hold and fly in a big circle around him before going back to the persons arms/shoulder/whatever. he knows logically that laxus wont summon thunder just bc lily got close but also big boom noise reminds him of far too many awful things from edolas

carla happy frosch and lector are also scared of thunder. all exceeds are. those four have just been on earth land long enough to know itll most likely be okay. happy has been near laxus enough to know hell just absorb it if it gets close to the guild

cana hates hospitals. even a medical area or something where the injured/sick rest. too many bad experiences there. too much death. it doesnt help that her fortune telling is itching to show how people will be affected by what ails them

all of the dragon slayers have a fear of abandonment. be it their first human families, the dragons (if applicable), the second families (again if applicable), the guilds, the exceeds (you get the gist), friends, whatever. they have been left too often to expect people to stay for any amount of time, but by the gods does it burn when anyone leaves even for a moment

mystogan and porlyusica feared an anima would drag them back to edolas every single fucking day.

now porlyusica fears it, even after they all reassured her mystogan took care of them all.

and mystogan fears that he didnt stop the animas, and hell suddenly have a lacrima of his family back on his doorstep

What the water gave me - iv

Juvia suddenly leaves Fairy Tail. Gray knows it is for sure not his fault. But why does he feel so guilty?

I did it before christmas I'm so proud of myself!!

Gray x Juvia

An arc between Tenroujima and the GMG in which Juvia runs from the guild and Gray gets her back (maybe)

Very angsty, a lot of self doubt, self hate, canon typical violence, gray is in focus

Rated M

“I wonder what they are going to do to Juvia-san”, Wendy murmured. “What might they want her for?” “Maybe they want to force her to join their guild,” Lucy said bitterly. “Maybe they will make her cook and clean and everything,” Natsu hypothesised to widespread “absolutely not” replies. “Maybe, they will use her for something,” Gajeel said slowly. “A sacrifice or an experiment.” When Wendy gasped at his suggestion he turned to her quickly and mumbled a weak “sorry”. Suddenly all of them were talking at the same time, the most horrific scenarios were thrown around, everything from slavery to dismemberment. It wasn’t until Mirajane loudly cleared her throat that all of them calmed down. “Its no use to think of the worst case scenario right now, everyone,” she said in her strict scolding-her-siblings voice. “We have to believe she is alright and we have to decide how to move forward!” Silence fell for a moment as if they were all collectively thinking what they would want to do next. Gray wiped away a piece of dirt from his boot and only looked up when he was suddenly directly addressed. “Gray.” Natsu stated his name as if he was volunteering him for something.  “What?” Gray looked up and felt already annoyed just looking at Natsu. The Salamander stretched his neck: “You don’t wanna participate in the discussion or somethin´? You haven’t said anything at all.”
