All Things Gratsu

Hey, everyone!

So... last year was... complicated. But here we are again, ready to give this a try this year. It's a new start.

Here are the new prompts!

The prompts are quite general and can be interpreted however you want, just don't forget to tag as a heads up to the reader.

Hope more works for our favourite guys come forth.

And that you have fun too.

Once Upon a Time...

Do you like fairy tales but find yourself wishing they weren't always so hetero-normative?

You're not alone. That's why we feel it's time to shake things up a bit and give some of these stories an LGBT+ update.

And that's exactly what this event is looking to do! This summer we invite you to re-imagine a classic story, or come up with one all your own, starring Fairy Tail characters!

Event Information

Dates: August 23 - August 26

Submissions: Anything that inspires you - art, fics of any length, poetry, aesthetics, edits, head canons, etc.. Both ship and platonic entries are welcome. The most important aspect is that the piece focus on an LGBT+ character(s).

Prompts: We've chosen two different tropes for each day from here that we thought might be fun, but you are welcome to pick others if they inspire you more!

Day 1 (Friday): Cursed ✦ True Love's Kiss

Day 2 (Saturday): Other Dimension ✦ Impossible Quest

Day 3 (Sunday): Abandoned Child ✦ Surprise Royalty

Day 4 (Monday): Forbidden Love ✦ (Un)Happily Ever After

Event Tag: Use the tag FTOUAT in your first five so that we can see it!

General Rules: No character bashing, pedophilia or incest, all content must be previously unpublished and original to the blog posting it. Tag all content appropriately for triggers.

If you have questions, send us an ask!

We love getting likes, but we'd appreciate it even more if you could reblog this post to help us get the word out!

Once upon a time, a prince fell in love with a beautiful princess...

But what if he fell in love with a handsome knight instead? Or if the princess rejected him because the witch had already won her heart? Or perhaps the prince turned out not to be a prince at all, but a princess?

.·:*¨༺ ༻¨*:·.

This is what we'd love to see for this event. Fairy tales, but with an LGBT+ twist and starring our beloved Fairy Tail characters.

Hey everyone! It's been a minute since we ran an event, but we're excited to be back, and we hope you will join us for what we think will be a fun one. Keep an eye out for the event prompts. We will reveal them daily starting on Monday, June 24th!

Fairy Tail’s chibi wizards tickle fight!

Title: Who is a stronger wizard now, Natsu?

And I’m feeling like it was only ever you  And I’m feeling like you are something I won’t lose 

You are a part of me

My Fairy Tail Reverse Bang 2022 entry is here. Ekid provided the beautiful and amazing art.

title:  ​Of Immanence (and how to find the way beyond) pairing: Gray x Natsu rating: M (angst, angst, angst hence M) word count: 6k relevant tags: Canon-Typical Violence, Angst and Hurt/Comfort link to full fic on ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/39128193 link to art: (I’ll link it when it’s posted)  summary:

The foray into the Alvarez Empire leaves Natsu and Gray transfigured and mentally scarred: one exhibiting a horn, a wing, and scales; the other grappling with a murderous voice sweet-talking him into killing his best friend.

While Natsu falls into the darkness of his own making, Gray is left to navigate being the optimistic and cheerful one.

He fails the cheerful part though, and while optimism has never been his forte, he does what he can. The alternative is quite dreadful.

immanence - the state of being within or not going beyond a given domain; existing or remaining within, inherent; restricted entirely to the mind, subjective.

here’s the excerpt, read the rest with the link to ao3

Entry from rellanokid on instagram. This art inspired two stories!

Everything will turn out okay 💔
