Married NaLu Headcanons? ;)

Hmmmm lemme try canonverse for this

Never actually officially married. Just sorta got closer and closer with each other over time, having stuff at each others place, going out together, being each other's main confidant and go to person, etc. Didn't really click at all until someone jokingly asked where they were hiding the rings til it hit them and they both blue screened.

They did talk it out by the rainbow cherry blossom tree at some point about where their relationship was going and if they were willing. Got sappy real fast. Natsu gave Lucy his scarf when he couldn't figure out good enough words to say.

They did keep a small thing with all their guildmates and friends eventually they just never had the whole thing done up on paper or got rings. With everything they've gone through and done for each other it seems like such a small matter.

They swap each other's last names as a joke all the time. Today in an interview Lucy'll give her name as dragneel but sign off as heartfilia on an article. Natsu tells reporters that his name's Heartfilia now but in the same breath signs up for fights with Dragneel. Everyone's annoyed by it but they think its the funniest thing to do.

Took the absolute longest time to figure out who's place to move into because Natsu was deadset on Lucy's apartment (his reasoning being that they had way more fun memories of hanging out there :/) but quickly realized that being cooped up in a small apartment with no yard space would probably do him in in the long run. (Also couldn't handle the noise of living by a main road in the city for extended periods)

The tabloids are all up in their relationship and while Lucy politely declines and defers away from it, Natsu takes great joy in playing the fool and acting like he has no idea what they're talking about.

Surprised each other that after being together that they're still learning new things about each other (Natsu styles his hair, extremely early riser, meticulous about his memento collection etc. Lucy's lack of cooking skills, her writing anxieties, snacking addictions, etc.)

Happy loves this whole situation because now he has full 24/7 access to bother Lucy and her stuff :)

Both of them quickly realized that the two of them loose in a kitchen at the same time only leads to chaos and mess but it's so much fun they end up doing that rather than getting something to eat.

Slowly ended up stealing each others fashion taste through osmosis and keep accidentally matching outfits. How cringe.
