Headcannoms about friendship between Bickslow and Gray? I like to think after the fighting festival he really tries to make it up to Gray.

Gray: ‘we’re chill. It’s fine.’

Bickslow: ‘my babies will now perform a dance of apology’

Also a scenario I’d like to share!

Lucy: hey, Gray I picked up your mail. Why do you have a letter from a modelling agency?

Gray: oh that. I don’t know they just keep sending me them even though I’ve told them no.

Lucy: you’ve turned them down repeatedly?! *while crying inside*

Gray: yeah? It’s weird ‘cause I didn’t even apply.

Lucy: Lucy kick!

i for some reason hadn’t considered the idea of them having a close friendship, but i am now so here! a gift !

i had so much fun with this

* my personal hc is that Bickslows dolls feel a lot of what he himself feels, and also theyre kinda like birds

* so they too try to make it up to Gray, they bring him little things they find, such as shiny rocks, pins, and other tiny objects they find

* Bickslow just nods in approval from the sidelines when they bring them to Gray

* They were both fairly awkward with each other post festival but after Bickslow gave Gray an honest apology they began to turn over a new leaf

* people find the friendship strange tbh, Gray is known as this vaguely calm and like, super normal guy, and Bickslow is just— not

* theyre surprisingly comfortable with each other

* they dont hang out a lot outside the guild, but thats not to say they dont ever,

* While they dont work the best together and it took a while be able to fight along side on another,

* If the Thunder Legion and Team Natsu have to pair up usually they do bc they’re comfortable with each other and trust can go a long way

* theyre both texting fiends, like its a problem how much they message their friends, so when they found out the other was the same oh my god was it a train wreck

* their conversations can go for hours and if you read through them youd probably have an aneurysm because the topics make no sense and Bix doesn’t even try to spell correctly

* They have gotten close and friendly but that doesnt mean theu ever know what to expect from the other, their opinions and thoughts are so different from each other, if rhey ever have the same idea its like all the stars and planet’s have aligned and world is about to end

* Bickslows hair is naturally black and Gray helped him dye it once and they deadass looked they walk out the smurf set for weeks, Bix’s bathroom looked like they murdered a hundred of them

* Gray has an affinity for collecting hand weapons (swords, spears, bows, etc) while Bickslow likes taking apart and building old bombs (actual explosive grenades, land mines, smoke/flash grenades)

* they bonded over it and talked about it in public and terrified about 20 people rhat were in earshot

* theyre both a big hit with kids

* Bickslow gets added to the long list of people who barge into Gray house unannounced

* a lot of the time they will talk (coughcomplaincough) about two different things in the same convo

* Bickslow: the cops were at my door again last night because of the inactive grenade i threw in the fountain, woke me up and everything

* Gray: ugh, i hate that, Natsu blew up a building again and Erza yelled at the both of us

* Bickslow: thats so rude, do you think i should make another one and send it to them?

* Gray: totally, she knew it wasnt me but i still got scolded

so happy ppl have realized how pretty Gray is, now we’re gonna talk abt it bc im an overachiever

* Hes been scouted by plenty of different modeling agencies over the years, which really boosted his ego but very quickly became annoying as hell bc he never even applied

* He gets a couple a month, and he accepted once just to get them off his back and found it really embarrassing bc he was everywhere

* his friends in and outside the guild bought the magazines he was featured in and teased him mercilessly and he never stepped foot in another agency ever again

* Hes really photogenic but hates gets his photo taken, most of the pictures hes in ‘willingly’ hes glaring at the camera

* he now just blocks the numbers they call him on and throws out the letter they send him, if they stop him on the street he will walk away before the conversation even starts

* when Lucy found out something inside her died a little

* she pestered him about it and said she’ll go with him! he wont even have to take the money for it! she’ll take it! 😁

* she gets shot down every time but that doesnt mean she quit trying

I hyperfixated @fairytail-redraw

But here is this

I'm so in love with the idea of thunder god tribe being like lil triplets for Laxus, and Laxus is like "no I can't do reckless shit no more, I have my kids to worry about", people are like "you have kids???", Laxus: "yeah", and kids are just three grown-ups looking at Laxus with heart-shaped eyes, and then he's like "okay, I need to go take care of them"

Freed is the oldest one, repeating after him, following his steps, learning and growing, best student, his pride.

Bickslow is next, lil dumb (no, he's actually a secret genius), lil crazy, lil reckless, in short - middle child, circus on feet, but he's Laxus' joy.

And Evergreen as youngest one, pretty and pretty independent, fairy with attitude, she may seem giddy, but she's very smart and cunning; they say if you look at Evergreen for a long time, you can see Laxus.

And it's so-so cute, cuz this kittens are his family, part of his life, and I love it so much, cuz let's be honest with eachother, Laxus is a big softie, and he really need someone to protect, so even if he knows for sure that Freed, Ever and Bickslow are more than capable to protect themselves, that doesn't mean he's not worrying about them. He does. Sometimes a lot. 'They don't need someone to protect them, they're strong,' he says, and then Mirajane cas clearly see that he just can't sit on that chair calmly. She wants to say how cute he is like that, but she bites her inner cheek instead, to not to scare that...openness he's showing her. And it's absolutely obvious that he's showing it, on purpose, he allows himself to be like this, because Mira knows - Laxus can hide really well when he wants to. So she's just glad he trusts her enough to show his true feelings for the raijinshuu.

He'd be a good father, she thinks suddenly, and then blush appears on her face and she hurries to hide it, going to the basement for *choose the reason* while Laxus stares after her with an questioningly raised eyebrow, until his own blush shows on his cheeks. He probably looked stupid...

Even though Laxus doesn't usually care what other people think of him personally, for some reason he doesn't want to look stupid in front of her.

Sheesh.

P.s. inspired by this, look at them. Look at them. He lllooovvvvessssss herrrr (I'm not talking about romantic love here), HE LOVES HER, THAT'S WHY HE CAN BE LIKE THAT WITH HER, AND EVER KNOWS HIM WELL ENOUGH, LOOK. COME THE FUCK ON. THEY'RE FAMILY. I'M DEAD.

Ever but like that 'annoying' lil 'girly girl' sis who can poke you just because she can, and I think if she really was his lil sis, she would simply come up to him, coquettishly extend her hand, and he'd give her money without questions (but with a heavy sigh). And Bickslow'd be like 'wow, can I have some too???', and Laxus to him with straight face, blinking: 'No.' Freed, trying his luck, quietly: "...can I?". Laxus would asked how much and would give him the requested amount, and Bickslow would explode at how terribly unfair this is!!! And Laxus'd give him an hour and a half lecture about how Freed spends money on books and stuff for self development, and Bickslow, on the contrary, always buys all sorts of crap.

"Why then are you giving money to Ever, huh?!" He rightly grumbles, frowning comically, almost stomping his foot. "She buys all sorts of crap too!"

Laxus looks him straight in the eyes. Blinks twice. And, raising his mug of beer, explains:

"I just like her more than you."

Bickslow eventually explodes, making angry noises, and Mirajane, nearby watching this scene, cannot help but giggle at how Laxus skillfully hides his grin behind his mug.

Btw follow me for more Raijinshuu and Miraxus stuff, I just wanna talk about them, seriously:'))

Okay so I like a variety of ships. Many of them are the more conventional ones (as you’ve probably seen). However I also like some unconventional ones. I’m not putting all my ships in this fic otherwise there would be a lot of open relationships and poly throuples.

My general rule for shipping is that I look for characters that have chemistry together. Whether this is due to shared interests or similar personalities, it’s also due to their interactions, there are plenty of characters that have a ton of great interactions and/or shared interests that I can just never see together. (Honestly I think it comes down to vibes)

Okay so the next family is less one family and a collection of three...

The Children are affectionately named the v’s and come from...

The Justine Family

After watching his best friend (and long time crush) get married Freed settled for loving himself and being content with what he had. He was given the opportunity of becoming a great uncle to his two goddaughters and kept his friend in his life and nothing would make him disrupt that peace. Freed never believed that he would become a father. At least until he came across Victoria.

Victoria Justine

Vic grew up on the streets, intelligent and resourceful she turned to pickpocketing and pulling scams to get by. She happened upon a travelling wizard one day and decided to steal his wallet. The man, one Freed Justine, caught her. The surprising thing for him was how she had already started dispelling his protective enchantments in order to lift his wallet from his pocket. Seeing a spark in her he took her under his wing. The first few months were rough for the pair until Freed came to the shocking realisation that he had a daughter now. Victoria Justine is a skilled enchantress specialising in written enchantments much like her father. She also followed her fathers footsteps in other ways by becoming a steadfast follower of Mary Dreyar. While Victoria doesn't hold the same feelings for Mary as her father does for Laxus, she still hopes to ease her friends burden and remain a steady presence as best she can.

The Strauss Family

Elfman and Evergreen danced around each other for so long. Elfman was always ready to take his relationship with Ever to the next level. However, Evergreen dragged her feet, making excuse after excuse. The disheartened Elfman believed that the woman he loved was ashamed of him and began to think that she would be better with someone she could be proud of. When Ever learnt that he was thinking of calling things off she was mortified. She eventually came clean to him that she was never embarrassed by him. She went onto explain that inviting someone so close into a very intimate part of her life (that not even her teammates got to see) was difficult for her. She promised to change for him and proposed to him the next day in front of the entire guild for all to see.

Veronica Strauss

Veronica is every bit her fathers daughter, in looks that is. Standing almost a head and shoulders above her peers, Veronica casts an intimidating first impression. At least until she opens her mouth at which point her mother's more feminine influence shines through. Veronica the beast master is the primary reason why her team struggles to complete monster hunting quests. She's more than likely to try and befriend the creature rather than hunt it down (after grappling it to prevent it escaping). She's brought many a creature, of various sizes, home. If she had her way she would've opened her own zoo by now.

The Strauss Family (take two... three?)

When it came out that Bickslow, the most unserious member of the thunder legion, was seeing someone it came as a shock. He had previously been quoted as saying that he just wasn't interested in dating and was just here to have fun. What was more shocking was when he was caught making out with one Lisanna Strauss. Bickslow got quite the shovel talk after that. When the two finally came clean, it was discovered that the two had teamed up once and had bonded over various events in their lives. Bickslow had come from nothing, without even a name of his own, feeling forced to become a larger than life personality in order to make himself feel likeable. Lisanna, conversely, had been forced into the shoes of a dead woman to play house with a family that wasn't her own, only to return to a guild that had changed far too much in her absence. They found comfort in together, finding that they didn't have to perform for each other.

Vincent Strauss

Vincent's start in life had been difficult, born prematurely with a defect that made him blind, the boy's future was sure to be full of difficulties. Thankfully he was born into a guild that supported him in everything he did, offering him the same opportunities as his peers. When Vince was 7 his magic made itself known. Having the same ability to see souls as his father Vince was finally able to see in his own way. After activating his magic Vince became captivated by performers of all kinds, enjoying how there souls lit up while practising their craft as well as seeing their audiences react. Due to this, Vince decided to become something of a performer himself. He practises many performative skills and often acts as the distraction for his team with his loud and, sometimes, obnoxious personality.

[fairytail-backgrounds]

It may be just a translation thing, but it's interesting that Bickslow prefaces his attacks with a 'sorry'. It contrasts both with his own loud & flashy manner of carrying himself and with Evergreen's arrogant and Fried's cold attitudes in previous fights.

Woe headcanons be upon ye

Despite it not being her main thing, Cana does have slight clairvoyant abilities and does readings with her cards. She helps to teach Carla how to deal with, control and manage her abilities. And even though Carla isn't.....overly fond of Cana's humour and behaviour she does enjoy these helpful sessions and hanging out with her, despite their wild personality differences.

Natsu has a huge collection of jewellery that he literally never wears. It's mostly stuff like bracelets, rings and necklaces with the one off earring here or there. Things that he thinks looks cool. He'll find em on missions, snatch em up if they look neat then promptly add em to his ever growing collection of cool things.

Gray🤝Gajeel🤝Freed, annoying about being lefties tbh. Bickslow 🤝 Levy🤝 Natsu, ambidexterous but have garbage handwritings with both hands.

Droy does not smoke weed and he's not vegan. That's a plant mage stereotype :( . Jet is both those things though.

Team Shadowgear is actually one of the more requested teams for missions, they have a really good record for efficiency and have done fairly little property damage in their time of being an active team.

Sting does not get taken seriously at guild master meetings. Like at all. He either gets talked over or ignored because of his youth (as well as being quite new at the whole guild master thing). Makarov and Master Bob always stick up and bring attention to his points though so as a result he looks up to those two for advice and guidance when he needs it.

Lucy still, on occasion gets reached out to from various businesses with proposals to revive the Heartfilia estate and though tempting (because having a steady income is always nice) she always turns them down.

Pantherlily makes occasional trips around and out of Fiore to check on the exceed encampments. He's no longer a knight and the exceeds no longer have a kingdom but he still feels obligated to check on their wellbeing.

i fucking love the lightning man episode and the little thunder legion moments we get like this one:

they're sitting on a couch smaller than the one the mayor is sitting on, but still looks big enough for all four of them...

but NO in the next shot theyre all squished together, leg to leg (and yes i also freaked out when i thought laxus had his arm around freed), like sardines. its so fucking cute i love this little family

this shot too makes it funnier that THEY STILL HAVE ROOM and its all possible that theyre squished like that because bickslow is manspreading and didnt wanna move down more THEYRE SO ANNOYING

also this extra shot makes me laugh the way that laxus and bickslow GULF freed and evergreen in size and height

CAN YOU TELL I MISS THEM

[firapolemos05]

Gajeel 🤝 Mirajane 🤝 Bickslow

Had a bunch of overly religious pricks thinking they were demons.
