So I've been binging some Fairy Tail again and I've gotten to the start of the Edolas arc

It seems as though Erza is basically some evil knight for the kingdom trying to kill everyone in fairy tail? Not gonna lie, super dig her Edolas design.

Anyway, I've known about Edolas for a while now and I've already wondered what kind of personality my insert would have there, but I hadn't known Erza was evil; now I can't decide which option for my s/i would be better:

She's still aligned with Fairy Tail so there's angst of them being so inseparable on Earthland but in Edolas my s/i could basically be her arch nemesis

Or

A little bit sweeter, my s/i is also evil and despite their personality changes they are also super close and it's like even across parallel dimensions soul mates can't be seperated

Basically: do I want some enemies to lovers, or do I want to be evil gfs together

[dapper-shipping-forever]

Erza gets super into and excited about Christmas traditions, she loves getting cozy after a day of activities with warm drinks and a fire, surrounded by decorations we spent hours putting together because we couldn't help goofing off while doing it, which was as soon as it was appropriate, aka I force her to wait until after Thanksgiving to decorate for Christmas (or whatever equivalent is in the FT world lmao)

Would you fuck your own clone? Featuring some of my f/os

(picrew used for me)

[dapper-ships-herself]

Should you fight my f/os?

Tagged by @megane-shipping @rose-wine-selfships @firebird-inkheart

I have many f/os, so this isn't all of them but I still did a fair number of 'em.

Also the rating system confused me but I did my best.

Dazai: He looks pretty scrawny, and while he is a pretty good fighter fighter through skill he isn't the physically strongest opponent, but you still wouldn't be able to beat him. He'd come up with some sort of plan where you'd probably think you'd won but then you turn around and oop no Dazai won. How does that work? Who fucking knows.

No fighting Dazai. 2/10

Erza Scarlet: She will kick your ass with the power of friendship and her eighteen thousand swords. Are you kidding me? She's queen of the fairies, no way. Beating her up only inspires her to win for the sake of her guild.

No fighting Erza. 1/10

Shinobu Kocho: She will poison you with a smile on her face. Unless your name is Douma, I would not recommend (ouch).

No fighting Shinobu. 4/10

Chuuya Nakahara: if you're looking to get crushed by a manlet in a fancy hat, then go for it. He's quite possibly one of the strongest ability users out there, but tell him Dazai called him a nerd or whatever and he'll fly into a rage that you can either use to your advantage or will result in you being crushed faster.

No fighting Chu-tan. 1/10

Yosano Akiko: Holy shit what? You're going to fight her? She will hack you to pieces, put you back together, and then repeat, repeat, repeat until she has to go and catch a sale.

No fighting Yosano. 4/10

Howard Phillips Lovecraft: You have a chance so long as he continues to give into his tiredness, he may simply lay there while you beat the shit out of him. Make sure you keep him from going all eldritch monstrocity on your ass though.

Not advised to fight Lovecraft. 3/10

Edgar Allen Poe: He's baby, why would you fight him? I know his best friend is a raccoon and he looks like he hadn't been outside since he was a baby, but what would you accomplish by fighting him?

To remain a decent person no fighting Poe. 5/10

Mark Twain: He's allergic to wearing shirts properly and thinks he's all buff and stuff, but you can punch him in the eye and knock him the fuck out. His little doll friends ain't gonna do shit. So long as you get too close for him to snipe you, you've got this.

Fight Mark. 7/10

Margaret Mitchell: I would really rather you not, she's napping. If you did, though, be ready to get caught in your own personal tornado while she rants about restoring her families honor. Unless your name is Akutagawa, be careful.

Not advised to fight Margaret. 5/10

Higuchi Ichiyo: She's certainly not the most formidable opponent, but she would gladly cut a thousand bitches for the sake of getting senpai to notice her.

You could fight Higuchi but it's not advised. 6/10

Gin Akutagawa: You wouldn't even hear her coming. The thought of fighting her would be brand new and then whoops, you've got a knife to the throat. She's not a leader of the black lizards for no reason.

Not advised to fight Gin. 4/10

Beelzebub: There is a chance that he would literally eat you, but for the most part while he is a big, beefy demon, he's also a teddy bear; he'd probably let you punch him over and over with a straight face. Stay away from his food and you should be fine.

Maybe fight Beelzebub. 6/10

Mammon: On one hand, he is the second most powerful of his brothers, he could easily destroy you. On the other hand, boy gets beat up verbally and physically by his brothers every damn day and has a mountain of insecurities, poke at those and you could probably win. Or make him even more mad. It's a gamble with the avatar of greed, my guy.

Maybe fight Mammon but not advised. 5/10

Jae-ha: He's a quick fellow, and his aim with those daggers is pretty spot on, it'd be very difficult and your best chance would be to try and ground him so he can't use his dragon leg. Although, he's a pervert and would probably like getting beat up, so you could win simply by that

Not advised to fight Jae-ha unless he's feeling especially nasty: 5/10

Chain Sumeragi: She can literally make herself completely undetectable and then stick her hand through you to play with your insides, unless you can get past that somehow, you're fucked.

No fighting Chain. 3/10

Steven Alan Starphase: He will Esmeralda Blood Freeze you before you can even blink and the shatter you into ice cubes for his drink. He ain't afraid to get his hands dirty.

No fighting Steven. 3/10

The Happy Huntresses: They're an experienced team of top of their class huntresses; four badasses trained not only to fight people but also giant evil monsters.

No fighting the happy huntresses. 4.5/10

Meis and Gueira: I mean they look decently tough with those bikes and the armor and the fire, but everytime we see them in a fight they get their asses handed to them in like two seconds. Best to be equiped with a fire extinguisher or like some ice cubes to chuck at 'em.

Maybe fight them. 6/10

Aizawa Shouta: Your best bet is to catch him in the middle of a nap, but please be so careful not to wake him up, he's most likely be so cranky that he'd forget he's a hero and snap your neck.

Not advised to fight Aizawa. 5/10

Idia Shroud: His scrawny ass barely ever leaves his room, he hasn't lifted anything heavier than his phone ever, he's a flaming stick basically.

You could fight Idia. 7/10

Sesshomaru: He has very little mercy to spare and has killed a great deal of people and demons.

No fighting Sesshomaru. 2/10

Annie January: She is capable of blinding and throwing you across the room with a beam of light from her hands and can lift like thirty two times her bodyweight. Unless you also have superpowers, would not recommend.

Not advised to fight Annie. 5/10

Byleth: She's a skilled fighter on her own, but she also has an army of feral students ready to beat the shit out of anyone who messes with their proffessor.

No fighting Byleth. 4/10

Shatina: Her greatest joy is beating people up and watching them bleed, she steps on and torments even her closest allies on a near daily basis. She would crush you and the go right back to drinking.

No fighting Shatina. 4/10

Maeve: I'm actually not sure what kind of fighting ability she has, but why would you want to hurt a goddess?

No fighting Maeve. 5/10

Ban: He's a member of one of the strongest groups of fighters in the land, and he's able to almost immediately regenerate after any and all damage. Also, he's like 10 feet tall, what are you going to do? Chew on his ankles until they snap off? They grow right back.

No fighting Ban. 4/10

Joxter: Fucking feral cat man, too lazy to fight back. Kick his ass.

Fight Joxter. 8/10

Shigure Sohma: Please fight Shigure, please. I will put my bet on you and watch.

Please fight Shigure. 9/10

Vodka: She's used to fighting giant fallen angels, she'd have no trouble kicking your ass and looking good while doing it. Also, she could simply send her hawk Andre to peck out your eyes before she even has to do any work.

Not advised to fight Vodka. 5.5/10

Jordan 'JD' Davies: They're the Jersey Devil. Literally, the Jersey Devil. They'd burn you to a crisp with their fire powers. But, your chances of victory aren't zero if you could find a way to deal with that. They're strong, but you could find a way with a fist fight. Fuck knows they deserve to be fought.

You probably shouldn't but fight JD anyways. 7/10

Zoro: You're going to fight a guy who wields three swords? One of which he sticks in his mouth? He's clearly crazy. Also I'm pretty sure he cuts a mountain in half at some point or something like that? So there's that to take into consideration. You're best bet would be to also be amazing with swords.

No fighting Zoro. 3/10

Nami: She's not the most powerful out of all of all of her crew, but if you beat her you will leave afterwards and notice that your wallet and all your valuables that you had on you are missing and she's already sailing away.

You could fight Nami but you will be poor afterwards. 7/10

Mollymauk Tealeaf: Hasn't he been through enough?

No fighting Molly please. 5/10

Zora: She will turn you into a literal baby, how do you plan on beating her up as an infant with your chubby lil baby hands?

No fighting Zora: 4/10

And I wanted to include some familial too

Yukichi Fukuzawa: Have you seen him fight with a sword? You won't even see him draw it.

No fighting Fukuzawa. 2/10

Ogai Mori: He will trick you into thinking he's merely a simple, friendly neighborhood physician, and then the moment your back is turned there will be a scalpel buried deep in it. Also, he has a demon baby at his command.

No fighting Ogai. 2/10

Kouyou Ozaki: You might think you're sneaking up on her, but her Golden Demon will cut you down without her even needing to look away from admiring the flowers and sipping her tea.

No fighting Kouyou. 2/10

Oda Sakunosuke: HASN'T HE BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH.

No fighting Oda PLEASE. 4/10

Ranpo Edogawa: While he has eaten nothing but processed sugar since the day he was born, he will eviscerate you with his words and leave you too mentally beaten to lift a finger. Stuff your ears with some cotton and kick his scrawny ass. The rest of the detective agency will come after you, though.

Not advised but go ahead and fight Ranpo. 5/10

Yumeno Kyusaku: So much as look at this child wrong, much less lay a finger on them, and I will be the one fighting you.

NO FIGHTING YUMENO. 0/10

Lio Fotia: I know he looks like a dandy who was abandoned and raised by a biker gang, but he is also the strongest known burnish. The only thing saving you is his code against killing.

Not advised to fight Lio. 4/10

Laxus Dreyar: He's an asshole, and I completely understand wanting to fight him, but he is jacked as shit with the power of lightning at his finger tips.

It's not smart but I would like to watch you do it anyways. 2/10

Noctis Lucis Caelum: He'd rather fish than fight you, but he is capable of taking down giant monsters and mini armies with the ability to teleport. Tell him Hot Topic is going out of business and he'll crumble.

Not advised to fight Noctis but eh maybe you could. 4/10

Pretty sure all the people I would've tagged have already done it? So do this if you want to.

[dapper-ships-herself]

Reactions to me texting them “I want a baby”

[dapper-ships-herself]

Did this ship meme with Dazai and Erza~

[dapper-ships-herself]

I doubt I will have the motivation to do all these prompts, but this one is cute. Reverse self ship. Part of @fofebruary

Dazai picked up the first volume on a whim one day just because he was bored and he'd randomly found it. He'd expected not to like it all that much, because it's a magical girl series and those are all full of ~light~ and ~hope~ and all the believing in the purity of the world bullshit. But this series had a sense of realness. Still steeped in the classic magical girl themes, but it never shied away from showing the darker parts of the world too and got a bit bloody at some points. What really got him hooked was the purple magic knight, Gillian. She is disillusioned about a lot of the world, struggling to find her place and her reason to be alive, but even those doubts never stop her from trying and fighting for a brighter future and for her team; bonus points, she's adorable and a doofus. He bought every single volume that had been released so far, binge watched the anime, and got every game and so much merch like immediately. This was all back in his mafia days and carries over to the present. He will talk anyone and everyone's ear off about Gillian aka "my goddess!" and openly calls her his wife. Everyone just chalks it up to Dazai being Dazai and that he's a weird otaku but whatever, nothing new.

Not much for romance usually, he honestly can't help falling in love and picturing himself and Gillian together, going on dates, kissing, double suicide, jk actually while Gillian isn't able to outright cure that tendency, he is surprised that the hope of her and her show rubs off on him and knows she would be disapointed hearing him talk about it or offer it

Chuuya hated the series just because Dazai likes it and talks about it nonstop but one day sees a clip of Gillian and gets a crush and he fucking hates it, absolutely denies that he also loves the series now.

Yosano also loves the series and is less open about it but she and Dazai have had discussions about why Gillian is their favorite.

Gin very secretly enjoys the series and often gets all blushy under her mask thinking of Gillian. Tachihara once accidentally found out and she almost slaughtered him when he started to make fun of her.

Higuchi has merch in a shrine in her closet.

Lovecraft does not have any merch but has watched the series after he was introduced to it from seeing Margaret giving Mark a hard time for his figurine he owns. Margaret only does that because she wishes she had the courage to buy more merch but has the whole series tucked secretly away where the rest of the guild can't find it.

Poe has 100% written his own reader insert fiction and uses his ability to experience it.

Also, Ranpo loves the series too and even though he has never really wanted a sibling before finds himself thinking she'd be a good sister. Fukuzawa once pointed out that he seemed attached to this character and he got super embarrassed about it.

Fukuzawa sees Ranpo watching and sees Gillian's struggles and Adopts, nobody but he himself knows this.

Mori thinks she's cute and also adopts and has figurines with changeable clothes, pretty open about it.

And Francis's daughter probably watched and so he bought tons of merch as gifts for her and then later sees it again and gets reminded of his own daughter a little by her favorite character and so mentally adopts, mentions this to no one.

Oda also wishes he could adopt and has spent many hours listening to Dazai rant about her, Ango gets roped in against his will.

Kouyou probably notices Kyouka secretly watching it mostly for the adorable mascot and feels sympathy for Gillian and joins in on the adoption train, sort of tells Kyouka that she wishes she was there to guide the young girl.

Yumeno is given the series to keep them self company in their cell and imagines her as a big sister that would take care of him and not leave him alone, has no one to tell.

Dialogue: "Shall I enlighten you, young Atsushi, on true perfection?."

Erza hears about this book series not long after escaping the tower of heaven and joining the guild. She finds strength in Gillian's refusal to stop fighting and her dedication to her friends. She gets a crush, but the series stays in the back of her head until years later she finds it again and rereads and this time falls in love with the purple knight. She has a whole bunch of merch but refuses to tell anyone about her love out of embarrassment.

She also secretly has two requips where one is a cosplay of Gillian's magical outfit and the other is a piece of armor that she thinks looks like what her magical outfit would be. She never uses them to fight, and requips into them for fun sometimes when she's home alone, cosplays and imagines she's one of the magical knights too.

Dialogue: "What'cha got there, Erza?"

Byleth saw this play while she was traveling around as a mercenary and was instantly captivated by the story of Gillian the purple knight. Her design was really what drew her in, but as they continued on their way she kept thinking about her and thought about how amazing she is. The next town they reached that had a production of the play, she insisted on watching again, and so it continues everytime they find a troupe putting it on. They come across a merchant one day who has a wall scroll of Gillian, and even though she knows it's silly and that with all her traveling there's not even a wall for her to hang it on, she buys it and carries it around. She's not sure what she feels, since love is kind of out of her reach at this point, but she knows she admires Gillian.

Her dad suspects she has a crush on Gillian and thinks it's cute. She won't go out of her way to talk about the play or Gillian, but she will talk about it if asked. Her students know that if they want to get on their teachers good side and try to get a grade bump that they can give her anything related to the series.

It's only after she starts being able to really feel her emotions that she realizes she's in love with Gillian.

Dialogue: "Isn't she cute?"

[dapper-ships-herself]

[dapper-ships-herself]

I had a goal to get these done before the new year and I did it! My Yuletide drawings~

I actually did something I haven't before and sketched these on paper before transferring that to my computer and I really think it helped.

Also included, I lined my original outfit sketches and did some basic coloring to give myself an idea of what I was going for, decided to post them since only Dazai's full piece is a full body and I like all the full outfits.

These go with those little writing bits I posted before.

Also I only connected that Dazai's outfit had some Beauty and the Beast vibes when I was coloring it 😂

@nougatships

[dapper-ships-herself]

I wanted to post my drawings for the ball today, but they're not quite ready. So in the meanwhile, here are some ficlets I was going to post with the drawings, but I'll post them here first as like a sneak peak~

@nougatships

(I'm sorry it's not under read more, but I'm on mobile.)

Dazai

"Okay, you ready?" Gillian called around the corner.

Dazai chuckled "Yes, belladonna." He adjusted the collar of his suit, running a thumb over the delicate white embroidery.

"Right, okay." Gillian, out of sight, also fiddled with her suit, more out of nervousness than admiration. Sure, they had to dress well for work nearly everyday, but they've never had to dress this fancy before. Plus, she'd worked hard to design their outfits, and she liked how they turned out, but what if everyone else disagreed? She hasn't seen Dazai in his suit yet, but there's no doubt he'll look perfect, he's an asshole like that.

"Daaarliiing?" Dazai's sing song call broke her out of her spiral "The anticipation is too much! Hurry up before I come in there myself~"

"Ah! No, no, I'm coming." She huffed out a breath, patted her hair, and squeezed her eyes shut to steel herself. Before she could change her mind, she quickly stepped into view.

Immediately, the self doubt started to creep back in, but a split second after that there was a shriek across from her.

Dazai had an arm thrown dramatically over his eyes and leaned back "Ah! My mortal eyes can not handle this radiance before me! A goddess has graced me with her presence!"

Gillian giggled, all traces of unease melting away as her boyfriend continued to lament about how he didn't think it was possible for her to get anymore beautiful and yet there she stands. "Alright, you can cut it out."

He paused his speech to cross the room in a few even strides, coming to stand flush against her, wrapping an arm around her waist and taking one of her hands in his. "Oh, but I can't. You've outdone yourself tonight, Gillian." He brought the hand in his grasp to his lips.

She cleared her throat, unable to hold his gaze, but incredibly happy none the less. "You damn charmer."

He laughed, a warm sound deep in his throat, and ducked down to kiss her lips. He took a step back, bringing one hand to his chest a bowing his head slightly, the other hand extended in invitation. "Are you ready to head out? The party awaits."

Gillian took his extended hand, taking a step closer so that this time it was she who could press a kiss to him, right on the cheek. "Yep, this party won't know what hit it. Just got to grab those rum cakes I made. You didn't touch them, did you?"

"What kind of man do you take me for?"

"You totally ate one."

"Just one~"

Erza

Gillian hummed, securing the clasp on Erza's dress and fluffing out the silk attached so it flowed elegantly around her figure. "There! Perfect." She took a step back to admire her handiwork, a hand brought up to her chin and a smile on her face. "I think that looks good, what about you?" She lifted her gaze to Erza's face and stopped short.

She had been so focused on getting the outfit perfect, that she hadn't really taken in the whole picture yet. Her blazing red hair flowed past her shoulders in delicate waves, complimenting the blue of her dress. A gloved hand reached up to twirl a finger through the locks, and she saw a slight blush on her cheeks. It probably matched the one that was certainly on her own face.

"It's exquisite, Gillian. Thank you for taking so much care in this."

"N-No problem." She said. She wrung her hands restlessly in front of her. Ah, maybe she'd made a mistake. Erza was just too beautiful on a daily basis anyway, how in the world was she supposed to function at this party?

She cleared her throat and smiled "Welp, Erza, this party is gonna start with or without us, so we should probably get going." She reached for her own gloves on the table beside her and pulled the material on, flexing her fingers to test it.

Erza came up beside her, threading their fingers together and smiling tenderly. "Ready when you are."

On their way out the door, Gillian grabbed the special holiday cheesecake she'd prepared, and they were ready.

Shinobu

"Gillian, could you help me with my hair?" Shinobu called over her shoulder. Across the room, her girlfriend was adjusting the belts around her waist. She looked up with a smile at the request.

"Sure thing." She said, crossing the floor and standing behind Shinobu, taking the hair ornament from her hand.

Shinobu faced forward and looked at her reflection in the mirror, taking in the outfit she wore; the cape flowing down her shoulders, the long sleeves that draped past her hands, the wide belt cinching her waist. She hummed, closing her eyes in a smile. "I'm impressed, I had no idea you were so capable with design. Looks like you're good for more than just slaying demons, hm?" She teased.

"Oi, shut it." Gillian mumbles around the pins in her mouth. She takes one out to insert it into Shinobu's hair. The large, fan shaped hair piece is beautiful, but it's size and weight make it difficult to secure. "Isn't it important for a lady to be multi talented?"

"True, true." She said.

There was silence after that, a comfortable one as Gillian concentrated on her girlfriend's hair. Finally, she stepped back and looked at her through the mirror, a grin on her face. "Shinobu, my dear, I think I'm a genius."

Shinobu giggled, standing from her seat. "Yes, you certainly think so."

"Heeey."

She turned on her heel to face Gillian, resting a hand on her cheek and bringing their faces close. "And I agree~"

She slowly leaned in closer, Gillian fluttered her eyes closed.

Just before their lips touched, Shinobu pulled back, hopping in place and clapping her hands happily. "Come along then, we want to get there while the imagawayaki you made is nice and fresh." She skipped past the stunned girl and through the doorway. "Come on!"

Gillian blushed, whirling around "Sh-Sh-Shinobu! That's not fair!"

[dapper-ships-herself]

Cosmic deity au with Erza!

Erza is the blazingly glorious warrior goddess of the sun while I am the more subdued sorceress goddess of the moon, both known to be benevolent protectors watching over the cosmos in different ways. We reside at opposite sides of the cosmos, but I always admired her warmth from afar and like secretly helped her, like how the moon reflects the sun's light to earth, and was purely happy to only ever quietly do so, but little do I know that she also took notice of me and was captivated by the ~mysterious beauty~ of me, the quiet, reclusive being known far and wide by the other deities for my magic.

[dapper-ships-herself]

Your honor I love her ;-;

[dapper-ships-herself]

🎵 w/ Erza and/or Nami?

Lyrics that remind me of my ship with Erza:

It's you, you who taught me the darkness will end

It's you, you who taught me

If the the darkness shines too, then it'll become a night of stars

Lyrics that remind me of Nami:

Right now, buy back the future

The affliction of wanting to do "that" and speaking of desire as well

Come to the other side of all that hurt

It doesn't come true even if I pay

For it's a lie, lie, lie, a great big farce

Thanks for all that, it's fine as it is

This scrap of paper belongs to me alone

Yes

As for all those polluted delusions, let's have the bill be settled with this dirty money

[dapper-ships-herself]

21, 22, 27, and 29! (Lilacindulgence)

@lilacindulgence

21, most likely to steal my clothes: Finley

22, most likely to let me steal their clothes: Erza

27, most likely to take cute candid pictures of me: Kiro

29, most likely to give the best hugs: Dazai~

[dapper-ships-herself]

Natsu: There's no way Erza is good at everything! Maybe she's bad at kissing?

Gillian: No, she's good at that too.

Natsu: What?

Gillian: What?

[dapper-ships-herself]

Today is a long awaited day and finally the time has arrived to put my plans in action. Gillian, I truly love you, you know that? We've always been together before, but now we're together-together, and it still gets my heart racing just thinking about it. There's so much I want to do with you, places I want us to see together! In time I know we will get there, but for now, how about we start with this cake I bought? ―Erza

Erza! I can still hardly believe it myself sometimes. To think someone like me could have her feelings returned by someone like you, it's like a beautiful dream I never have to wake up from. I adore you, and I want to explore everything this world has to offer with you, no matter how long it takes. And what a coincidence, I've so prepared some cake for the two of us to share~
