#thankyou note

10000 likes! Thankyou for all your wonderful, inspiring, specially the silly and art posts <3 a good day to you ^^

My Grayza journey started in maybe 2010. The first season of Fairy Tail aired on Animax. From the moment Gray looked down at Erza from that automobile roof in The Armoured Mage: I knew. This was my ship. Well, that season finished at Fantasia and I went on my merry way, confident Grayza would be fine. Ready for me when I picked up Fairy Tail again. As it happened, that was last year. What. A. Rude. Awakening. Starved of the ship I had nursed for nearly ten years, I turned to the obvious solution. Fanfiction. That was what lead me here. To the Grayza Fanzine.

I can't start a thank you note without mentioning Scribblery/@ahundredgyozas . You replied to my review of your ages old fic with news of the Grayza Fanzine, encouraging me to e-mail the mods even though I missed the deadline.

I was honestly thrilled when Mod Erza's reply pinged into my inbox.  I had expected to be turned away, told I was too new to join in the fandom's swan song. 'Who does she think she is?' I never thought I'd be so warmly welcomed or so avidly encouraged.

Being a part of this zine made me really happy. I want to thank everyone involved in it for letting me be a part of this journey with you. Thank you Mod Erza and Mod Gray, for your regular check ins and for beta-ing my work. You gave me something to be excited about when life was kinda sad.

A special thank you as well to Sou (@becausewhenyoupracticeyouimprove), @gaymirajane , prestocrayon (@always-needing-to-be-saved) and @watcher-ofthe-sky . Idk if it was deliberate, that your art and edits appeared next to my stories; but they were so amazing! They complemented each other perfectly. I'm always so uwu when I look at those pages. You all rock!

To all the various mods (Sorry @ahumanintraining , I know I caused you some trouble in the final weeks. You are the best!), the writers, the artists - you have been more wonderful than words can express.  I'm so proud my content gets to stand next to yours. 

Thank you for making this zine. Thank you for showing the 15 year old girl who started this journey all those years ago that there is a life beyond the canon. Thank you, for filling my life with Grayza. :)

Okay, so my friend Laura (who I've only known for say two months) we've gotten to be really good mates, even though I really fucked her head up for a bit,

Well she's just made it a personal aim of hers to ensure that with all of her power, that she helps me finally get the girl of my dreams, she's even got her boyfriend in on this, and well I'm not sure of this but I reckon he know's about mine and Laura's say dodgy past.

I honestly cannot believe it tbh, I always look out for my friends and their matters so I know I never really look out for myself so not many of my personal aims are gained due to the fact I care about everyone else more than myself.

I'm now under orders to quit smoking, and I think now that I've physically been told to and for what reason I can do it,

Untill just now I never knew how importants friends can be for your life and stability really,

Generally there's only been one mate who's been fully there for me and that's Dan, christ he even tells me every single one of my flaws and it's been some of the best help ever.

But this has opened my mind to every other problem I have, my borderline-alcoholism, my low self confidence and well my lack of proper stability.

Thankyou Laura, Dom and well thankyou Dan,

Laura and Dan, you've told me what I need to do with myself and I appriciate that so much that you'll be incredibly shocked that I even knew of that feeling.

And well cheers Dom for helping Laura :P.
