For; @ironfanged & @spiritedscript

         G ajeel’s decrepit voice, amid heart-shattering lamentations, conducted an insufferable imposition of affliction ‘pon the captain’s shoulders as the man, one who perpetually publicized arrogance and fervor strength, cradled his now passing confrere ‘gainst his person in weighty despair and seldom vulnerability. --  Lids, heavy with strain, have condescended as to entirely clandestine Hitsugaya’s sentimental resistance abbreviating. He was standing adjacent to a bulky boulder, endeavoring desperately to stifle the other’s screams.  Next to him, attended Levy in a form he aspired not to ever bear witness; optics, generally painted by the most illuminating of all vitalities, broaden in absolute disbelief and delicately petite fingers enclosed loosely, crinkling the coal-hued textiles, ‘pon the adolescent Shihakusho’s effortlessly accessible sleeve. She was notably trembling in place ... Startled by the spectacle ‘fore them yet held the knowledge of what had priorly transpired. She had died; drawn oxygen into her living lungs for the last time. Instantly and painlessly. --  Shielding the man that she so unconditionally loved. She swallows the lump lodged in her gullet and liberates her soon to be light of salvation, of deliverance, and advances, gradually with arms pressed ‘gainst her breath hitching chest, towards the emotionally - breaking individual and her fractured blood-stained body. --  As she does so, the militant, who refrains from desisting her, wordlessly observes. 

                          He watches her as her movements cease behind the Iron mage.                  He watches as she hesitantly arches down to align his cheek with her own.           He watches as she benevolently presses her cold lips ‘gainst his tear-stained skin   He watches. He watches. And watches until she issues to the other a whispering Goodbye.

           What she may not know is the plausibility that Gajeel may not have been able to hear her voice, little less been able to feel the traces of her affection that was bequeathed ‘pon his face ... For when one is capable of perceiving a Shinigami, it does not quite imply that they could additionally distinguish ordinary souls. -- Wiping away her tears, they would not refrain from falling alike an overflowing riverside, she returns to the captain’s flank. Directing him, with an inclination of her head, to follow her behind the boulder they utilized as temporary coverage. She then positions herself in a locality she deems appropriate; a field of newly - blossomed flowers. Donned in serenity and wholly accepting of her impromptu destiny. Ready to traverse over to the Soul society she’s learned so much about from the prodigy ‘fore her. The prodigy reflecting uncertainty. A feature contrary to his embittered disposition generated by the actuality that this will be the last time they will be facing one another eye to eye. That her smile will radiate round their environs with an emotion of jubilant familiarity ‘pon seeing him about Mongolia once she crosses ...  He’ll be naught but a fleeting memory. A foreigner of a once connection he’s pitifully allowed to disintegrate ‘neath his omnipresence. 

         “ I’m ready to go, Toshiro. “ she confidently states.  --  How strong she was, he thinks, withdrawing his Zanpaku-to to ultimately commence the ritual of Konso. “ Toshiro ... “ she pronounces his name again, albeit more worriedly, noting the singular tear threatening to fall from his left eye. She knows that he’s been keeping a front this entire time. Not desiring to show her any inkling of weakness. Of unprofessionalism. That deep within his crude exterior and conscientious regime maintained a palpitating heart who exceedingly aches for the well-being of others. Who involuntarily becomes appended to those he considers friends. She reaches a hand to him, coursing her thumb ‘neath his eye to wipe away a tear she’d rather not see. Not on him. “ It’ll be okay. --  This will not be the end. “ her whispers were so pacifying. “ My Friendship with you. With Gajeel and everyone else in Fairy Tail is not over. It’ll just have a new beginning, that’s all. We will meet again. So, please. Don’t look so sad. “ he mechanically tends to her palm with his touch-deprived cheek as she speaks. ---  Briefly nodding a tangible confirmation that he fully understands. Mere instances afterward, the Konso takes place and the surrounding expanse is once again overhauled by Gajeel’s grieving resonance. 

 IT WILL NOT BE THE END FOR US 

     “ What are you reading? Seems        good by your grip on it. ”

                      The pulsing thump of his heart hadn’t faltered, lips stayed apart while the mind had begun to weaving, stalling the agony which had located in his chest, tweaking his agitated fear to grow bolder, & even more dangerous to the dare. She hadn’t said a word, neither ask him to stay.

Remember the days we spent together Give anything to have them forever

                   If he just could return, go back to the days when they were laughing together, enjoying the warmth when she laughed at his silly jokes, the filling in the chest which spread when she smiled, or gave him a connect with those beautiful amber gems to her eyes. Or the way they lighten up when he asked about a book & she told him all he needed to know. 

And all the things we used to laugh at I Wish I could bring it back

                            If only the guild was still existing, if he could turn back the time, pick a different path, save the best friend of his team mate, his feline & the rest of the guild mates, from the tragic nightmare .. he couldn’t ever woke up from. —— If only ...

Wish I could take it back

                           Maybe then, she would be more happier ... ? Her mirth in the eyes would still remain, & not that empty glance he could catch when she was unconciously dreaming herself away ...

         Breath was out of its control, a staggered rapid thumping heart’s beating inside his chest left the hearing to become useless. Barely had the energy left in its way, brought the male to focus on the scenery ahead. (  He was exhausted  ) , eventually had food become the rips of things you couldn’t call living creatures anymore. ——— and he was all alone in this world. (  The teammates had fallen, one by one.  ) His blonde comrade was the last. A horror of a nightmare he couldn’t look past nor forget. 

  Her screaming, the blood.

        The nose made a twitch, (  wait was that a human scent ?  ), the tail made a curl before eyes shifted, looking around to find its source, but all who greet him were a mayor of bitter silence. —— Forcing his own body to get up, the half dragonized man tried to walk, but there was barely any strength left in his body, yet something inside told him to keep moving on, drag those legs and find out the question he needed the answer to. (  Maybe the mind had finally snapped  ) , maybe he was going ... insane ?

*INHALES* 

Okay, let me tell you about one of the greatest ships I’ve had the joy of building for a muse. Take, two characters who have literally never interacted in the canon series – all they know about each other is what they hear from other people. Yet, despite that: Levy still takes a chance to at least be friends with this douchebag when he presents her with respect and no reason to fear him (despite everything she’s heard, and everything she knows he’s done as a criminal). And Erik, he’s changed a lot since the beginning of the series and Road Knight shows a whole other side to who he is (including some humanity), since then he’s only gotten “better” in a loose sense of the word. What really keeps Erik around at first is, he’d never made any other friends outside of OS/CS. And her bravery, considering most people would shy away in fear at his name – but not her. Maybe it’s because she’s part of Fairy Tail and they’re all crazy (according to Erik), but he won’t complain. She’s proven herself to him over and over that he can trust her, and trust isn’t something he gives out easily. Moving beyond friendship was something he really didn’t expect though, but he won’t complain. He looks at her as, his one and only. He doesn’t believe there’d be anyone else in the world who could treat him the way she does, and he cherishes that. 

I love, lovelovelovleovleoldjfelkh kfdsladsko soooooo much how much respect they have for each other as well, no matter how much some things might hurt. He all but hates her guild, and how because of them he was put in chains for a second time, but he looks past that for her sake because they’re her family. She knows he’s a wanderer, and hard to really tie down, but still hears him out every time he comes back. Erik would do anything for her. Even though he knows she’d never ask him to, Erik would go as far as to kill for her. And Erik knows she’d vouch for him, and fight for his freedom with him. 

Theirs is a relationship build heavily on respect and trust, so strong now it couldn’t be broken by anyone but each other. And I love it. 

Shipping with Cobra is really hard, so I don’t know if I’ll ever get to actually make this ship: but I really do like CoLu (when it’s done right, not like,.. ugh I can’t even get started on the colu tropes I’m not a fan of – which is like, so many of them).

Levrik ( @spiritedscript ) and Marik take the cake for the best ships I have gotten to do for Erik so far, but I haven’t gotten to explore very far with other characters and would like to. Having a side character makes it easier[?] in that respect, as most relationships HAVE to be built from the ground up. So, I guess – I’m open to a lot of suggestions.

     “Finally?” Freed’s lips curved into a chuckle. Oh if Levy knew just how many more things there were he would be willing and wanting to do, if she let him and approved of it herself. It was adorable how only touching her (absolutely wonderful) rear brought this bright flush to her cheeks and he casually wrapped one arm around her when he felt her leaning against his side.

      Having her so close, no matter in what way, always felt precious to him. Though that wouldn’t save his girlfriend from the tease. “So you’ve been waiting for me to do it? Is there anything else I should know of, because I’m fairly certain that the chance that I’ll be willing to play into your hands is quite high.”
