for @x4evermore

Gray x Natsu + Pride

Ahhha... so I ended up having a lot more fun with it than I expected to (as I didn’t have many ideas, but found a crazy prompt that just had to be repurposed), aaaand knowing me - it turned into a monster of 2000+ words! I didn’t want to post a huge thing on here, so here is a link to the fic on Ao3:

I do! Tears as a prompt for these two is evil @x4evermore !!  Still I somehow managed to keep it non angsty. Thanks for the ask!

Natsu couldn’t say he’d gone through as many emotions in one year as he had in one day on Galuna island, and it was confusing as hell to him that they all revolved around his longtime rival Gray Fullbuster.

Anger was the easiest one to accept — hell that’s pretty much the way he felt around the ice prick on a daily basis — but this was different; he was actually angry at people because of the Ice Block, like wanting to knock them into next week angry and that was definitely new — what the heck did he care if someone wanted to hurt Gray?

Terror was a new one for him; Natsu Dragneel was scared of nothing and he would pummel anyone who said any different, but seeing Gray attempt that Iced Shell spell and knowing full well what it could mean if he succeeded had left him weak at the knees; which of course sent him right back to anger and he punched Gray’s stupid ass in the face to stop him.

Tenderness was the one that threw him for a loop because he’d never ever felt that way about Gray before, unless you counted the ache in his muscles from their many fights; but when he saw Gray shed tears over his Master and his lost childhood, damn if his whole body didn’t feel funny as all he wanted  to do was comfort him.

Natsu laughed at how ridiculous that was, Him, Natsu Dragneel — comfort Gray Fullbuser; he had no idea what this all meant but he knew one thing for sure: their relationship had changed on Galuna Island and maybe…he didn’t mind all that much.

3. Have you ever unfollowed someone because of a fandom opinion?

Okay so have a few fairy tail ships blacklisted so I usually just don’t interact with people who’s otps are na/-\lu, gr/-\uvia, j/-\erza or mir/-\axus but there was one person I used to follow bc they wrote tons of metas about NaLi (my absolute favorite Fairy Tail ship) but then I found out they were a gr/-\uvia stan and I kinda just... stopped interacting with them and now I don’t even remember their username...

7. Is there anything you used to like that you can’t stand now?

Before I actually got to her introduction, I saw clips and compilations of gr/-\uvia moments and lowkey thought it was cute until I actually saw how fucking crazy and horrible Juvia is to Gray

9. Most disliked character? Why?

Tbh it’s gotta be Juvia. Most of the characters in fairy tail were super forgettable to me unless they were one of my absolute favorites (i.e Gray, Lisanna, Risley, Minerva). But the only character I actually dislike is Juvia. She’s just so awful in canon, she’s a creepy stalker, is awful to basically everyone but Gray, and doesn’t even have a personality to fall back on aside from all of that. I just hate canon!Juvia a lot, fanon!Juvia on the other hand is 👌🏾

27. Least shippable character?

Mai as Catwoman and Katara as Supergirl?
