#lucy heartfilia headcanon

[bumblebeehug]

what if i said: aquarius redesign but she doesn't have a nose, but instead has gills, and she's a lot less mermaid like and more siren like? webbed fingers, duller, creepier colours? and she always thought layla's daughter would be scared of her, no matter how nice she was, so to shield herself from any emotional hits, she decided to be cold and distant. except, lucy always loved aquarius: no matter if she showed her sharp teeth, her fish-scaley fingertips that didn't have nails, or if she scolded her for something she did. lucy always loved her.

Slowest slow burn in the history of slow burns. And I’ve been in one.

[natsudragneelswh0re]

headcanon:

(but like i know it’s canon)

natsu carries lucy’s stuff for her when they go on missions.

and i KNOW this is true bc there is NO FUCKING WAY lucy is fitting ALL HER SHIT IN THIS TINY FUCKING THING

LIKE???? I COULD MAYBE FIT MY PHONE, AIRPODS, AND WALLET IN IT AND THATS IT

AND WITH LUCY SERVING UP CUNT CENTRAL EVERY DAY ARE WE REALLY SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE THAT SHE IS FITTING EVERY OUTFIT CHANGE, HAIR BRUSH, AND ALL HER ACCESSORIES IN THIS WIMPY (but cute! bc let’s be real our girl always eats) BACKPACK?

the answer is no, which brings me to my second point. LOOK AT NATSUS BIG ASS MF BACKPACK

you’re telling me that natsu had THIS MUCH STUFF that he’s lugging around??? THE MAN LOOKS LIKE HE USED 3 IN 1 BEFORE HE MET LUCY.

and sure he had this set up when they first met but I KNOW that all the apples and dumbbells were replaced by lucy’s tampons, shoes, perfume, hair brush (no hair dryer bc HE is the hair dryer), and all her other shit. bc he is a man AND DAMMIT HE WILL DO IT ALL FOR HIS WOMAN.

thank you for your time, your honor. i rest my case.

Natsu knows how to cook and Lucy doesn't

She grew up with chefs and was not allowed in the kitchen for 16 years of her life

Natsu had to learn to live alone with Happy (a literal baby), him wanting his food almost burned or completely burned does not equal not knowing how to cook

[lisannastraussisanangel]

I've spiraled into the Natsu, Lucy, and Happy as a family brain rot recently and I wanted to ask if you have any domestic headcanons about them hehe

They are literally so cute. Of course I've got some!

Happy and Natsu like to go out and fish for dinner and always very proudly bring their catches in and present them to Lucy

The boys are very serious about celebrating Lucy's birthday. They literally start planning for her next birthday the day after her last birthday

Lucy makes them wear matching outfits and do photo shoots and stuff. They complain but love it deep down

When Lucy is pregnant, Happy does the cat thing of laying on her stomach and purring

Natsu, surprisingly, really likes to make a weekly chore chart for everyone. He needs to make sure everyone is doing their fair share (he’s heard too much of the old guys in the guild being useless and he will not be one. It’s an equal partnership!)

Lucy refers to Happy as her child when talking to new people. They are very surprised to find a talking blue cat is her son

Natsu is so proud of his family. He’s always bringing them up and bragging about them to anyone that will listen (including complete strangers)

Natsu does pushups with Lucy sitting on his back, Happy in her lap, reading a book

Lucy always writes the boys into her books. Like little secret cameos (example: her main character feeds a random blue cat a fish on their quest)

[risingmoonyue]

Tried my hand at redesigning Lucy from Fairy Tail! Notes and separate images under the cut.

[EDIT: I now have another post for more notes and world building!]

I wanted to give her a little more “working towards casual” vibes, because I wish it was explored a little more how being raised rich affected her behavior - or rather, how she *doesn’t* act. I HC she spent the time pre-Natsu but post running away kinda training herself to not default to rich, polite heiress. There was a lot of people watching involved. She may or may not have a notebook titled “How to people”. When she’s really tired or stressed, she’ll fall back on talking formally, though she usually catches herself fairly quickly by the time Natsu bulldozes his way into her life. She prefers talking casually, but the formal speech comes in useful when dealing with particularly picky rich clients (or royalty).

(On a completely unrelated note if anyone has fics along this vein send them my way)

Anyways I like to think my version has a very close, familial relationship with all her spirits. She’ll call one out most days, even just to hang and talk for a while. It very conveniently doubles as stamina training for her - not that she actually needs the excuse, but if she does happen to need one that’s her go-to. They are all very protective of her, especially Aquarius, who despite how it seems cares very much for Lucy and basically helped raise her after Layla passed. Lucy appreciated how Aquarius treats her like literally anyone, and Aquarius is her go to for life advice; Aquarius herself has a habit of accosting the other spirits as they come back for status updates.

[locketlace]

I’m so so sick rn so here are some random FT sick HCs to make me feel better

Not counting his motion-sickness, Natsu doesn’t get sick, ever.

The first time Natsu ever got sick was after he ate Laxus’ lightning, and he genuinely thought he was going to die. He was using Lucy’s pens and paper to write a will and everything

Laxus actually has the weakest immune system out of all the Fairy Tail members—the lightning dragon lacrima didn’t fix his weak constitution.

If one of Laxus’ missions lasts longer than a day or two, he will be sick when it’s over. There’s no avoiding it.

Lucy is a close second to Laxus though, since she’s the only Fairy Tail member who didn’t grow up eating dirt.

When Team Natsu was first formed, no one bothered to tell Lucy the climate of where their next job was, so she was getting sick constantly.

Natsu, Erza, and Gray are used to dealing with extreme weather, so their immune systems are built to handle intense colds and heats better. they just. Genuinely did not realize Lucy actually needed to dress based on the weather

Erza had the strongest immune system out of all the kids in the Tower of Heaven, and so was usually the one taking care of the other kids when they got sick. She still tends to get a bit overbearing when one of her friends are sick.

Erza reacted the worst out of everyone when she realized it was kinda her fault Lucy was getting sick all the time. Lucy had to reassure her she wasn’t upset about a thousand times.

Loke used to pretend he was sick to cover up the fact that he was literally fading out of reality. The downside of this was that he was “sick” pretty much constantly. Half the guild still thinks he has a horrible immune system, no matter how many times he’s tried telling them celestial spirits don’t get sick.

Wendy used to get sick easily when she was very little and her body was still adjusting to having the dragon seed. Mystogan was wholly unprepared to deal with this, and spent many sleepless nights watching over a feverish Wendy.

[lulushults]

why does no one talk about the real implications of natsu becoming end?

people go on and on and on about how nalu isnt real because natsu’s ‘too stupid to understand love’, but…r u guys not seeing whats literally right before ur eyes? let me explain :)

natsu was told by zeref himself, and then shown a direct demonstration, of the fact that zeref and natsu are directly connected, meaning if zeref dies, natsu dies.

then we get natsu finding presumably dead lucy, and going apeshit and becoming hell bent on killing zeref before being interrupted by gray.

so? what ya’ll think natsu just thought well lucys dead, lets go finish the task at hand and kill zeref yipee!

natsu was told if zeref dies, HE dies. and immediately after finding lucy ‘dead’, he loses literally every thought in his head except for his drive to kill zeref.

u wanna know why? because lucy has had such a dramatic effect on natsu’s life, personality and happiness that the thought of living without lucy drove him straight too a main source that he can rely on to end his life. in that moment he forgot about everyone he was leaving behind, happy included, and wanted to join lucy in ‘death’.

mr go happy natsu that everyone thinks has exactly 0 thoughts inside his head and goes out of his way to hide his feelings, immediately decided the next step and only step of action after discovering lucy was to end his own life because he couldnt bare to not have her in his. natsu relys on lucy as a main source of safety and comfort, sure he never directly says it out loud but he shows this through the way he acts with her. the way he goes out of his way to be in his apartment with her constantly. the way he feels he needs to protect her. the way he gets so aggrivated when another man flirts with her, because to him shes HIS lucy and he just cannot allow another man to steal her away from him. not to mention he also outright said lucy’s scent makes him feel comfortable.

i’ve always believed that natsu and lucy are connected in more ways than one. they’re eachother best friends. they’re so clearly in love. and they are eachother safety blankets. they both rely on eachother for stability and comfort whether directly or indirectly, the small glances when natsu notices shes upset, lucy always wanting to look out for him and immediately becoming worried whenever they’re apart despite knowing he can take care of himself. and i also wholeheartedly agree that if one of them were to die, the other would not be able to live anymore. if natsu were to die, lucy would drown in the feeling of loneliness despite being surrounded by the guild. without natsu, who does she really have left? hes so implemented into her daily routine that she couldn’t continue her everyday life because everything would feel so out of the ordinary and just…wrong. waking up without his heat next to her. walking to the guild with him. eating with him. going on jobs with him. and then falling asleep and feeling him sneak into her bed while she pretends to be asleep all the while slowly inching closer to him because shes enjoys his company.

and as we literally saw first hand in the final season, natsu does not under any circumstances want to live without her either. who would splurge on his expensive eating habits on jobs? who’s apartment would he break into? who’s bed would he sneak into? who’s fridge would he secretly break into every day to steal food? natsu has never cared about love, or relationships, or starting a family or even getting married. until he met her. and now shes so naturally integrated into his life that he just can’t imagine how he would go about putting a smile on his face without her there to make it so easy for him.

[beargyufairy]

Fresh out the slammer

I know who my first call will be to

This is canon btw

[igneelsdaughter]

Erza once walked into Wendy’s apartment at fairy hills to find her and Carla sitting on the floor with a bunch of bracelet making supplies. Erza was immediately enamored. Now Wendy, Carla, and Erza hang out almost every night making friendship bracelets. After that, a lot of Fairy Tail members have gained a collection of friendship bracelets the three of them made.

- Lucy tries her best to include at least one of them in her outfits, and sometimes even builds an outfit based on which bracelet she wants to wear. She also got one that she could put on Imitatia/Gonzalez/Michelle.

- Natsu and Happy hoard every bracelet they got like a dragon hoarding treasure. At first Erza, Wendy, and Carla thought they just kept loosing their bracelets which is why they never wore them. Until, Wendy overheard the two talking about doing extra jobs because they wanted to save up to buy a safe for the bracelets.

- Gray only wears a specific few, and keeps the others in a drawer. But, he never takes the ones he wears off. He wears them as much as he wears his necklace, which also means he never takes them off when he strips. (The ones he wears are any matching ones they made, and one that was inspired by Ur.)

- Juvia was very happy when they gave her bracelets but got jealous that they were giving Gray some. Until they made a matching set just for Gray and Juvia. She never takes it off.

- Erza doesn’t make any for herself, but Wendy and Carla made some for her as a surprise. She keeps them on display, but she doesn’t wear them after one got broken on a mission. She cried herself to sleep that night.

- Wendy and Carla have a special jewelry box to keep their bracelets in. Except they have their matching bracelets up for display after seeing how Erza has hers.

[2309analysis]

I have this nalu headcanon that Natsu just boasts about dating Lucy but nobody ever mentions or returns his gloating about it back to Lucy. The reasons for this is because everybody assumes it’s Lucy who’s giving him the benefit of doubt. Since, when does Natsu ever have an occurring thought in his head that’s not influenced? Or given by Lucy?

Natsu: Thinks they’re dating, but hadn’t said anything to Lucy in return; therefore she thinks they’re still good friends.

Lucy: Freaking out because she still thinks Natsu is just a crush and he doesn’t reciprocate the feelings and only being friendly and well, Natsu.

= Oblivious to the other’s thoughts and feelings.

My two cents.

[bumblebeehug]

i am not immune to the thought that lucy hated men after running away from her dad, and that natsu was the first guy she didn’t feel immediately scared of/repulsed by/weary of

like, yes, she flirted with that old mad for a discount on plue’s key - i can tell you for free that she hated every second of it, just cursing that he was a pervert for actually discounting the key at all (but her economic side still wished the discount should have been bigger)

and yes she met bora and was initially impressed with his magic - obviously he was actual dirt personified and everything, so clearly there were no neutral, mild feelings there

and maybe this is stretching it, but i bet it took a LONG time for her to get comfortable with Taurus - she initially thought he was scum as well for even looking at her tits when she was 15 (which he definitely was bc who gave him the right to thirst over a child) but then, years later she finally recognised that he didn’t flirt in a horny way - he just appreciated her for her, but the personality of his previous owner had stuck to him, specifically talk about tits and udders, so that’s the only way he knew how to talk to her, and since she was young she couldn’t keep him out for long enough for another vocabulary to stick

and anyways when she met natsu she for the first time felt like she was seen as a human. not like her mom, not like a piece of body, she was just. seen as,,,, anyone else. and that impression stuck with her in a way that made her more comfortable than she had been for many many years

[phoenix-before-the-flame]

Honestly man it just makes sense why Lucy and Gray are so comfortable with each other.

Within just barely knowing this guy for a few episodes into the series she sees him at his absolute worst, on Galuna. And then directly from that, Gray sees Lucy at her worst during Phantom Lord.

Like the earliest stages of their interactions had them seeing each other at one of their most emotionally vulnerable and lowest points. Of course moving forward from that they're gonna be completely chill with each other and comfy in each other's presence, cause they've already unintentionally laid themselves bare to the other.

ʚ fairy tail headcanons ɞ

ʚ these all range from canon-compliant to pure fanfiction lala land ɞ

ʚ this ended up being so much longer than i planned ɞ

ʚɞ

the b team from the gmg hang out regularly and are all very good friends. mirajane, cana, and juvia have special "making fun of laxus" privileges that not even bickslow has.

laxus is genuinely embarrassed about how he used to talk about erza and she uses it against him very often. "oh, yes, because how can i - a mere woman - possibly accomplish this task myself?" "fine! i'll open the pickle jar!"

cain instinct is strong in the fairy tail guild. everyone is resisting the urge to smack each other, and most of them aren't very good at it. even laxus can be a target, especially after he chilled out. the most surprising display was when levy smacked him square in the head with one of her books, and he just yelled at her, or when cana stared at erza for a few seconds before smacking her across the face.

sex education was, probably, the worst thing to happen to those who grew up in the guild hall. either makarov didn't give enough details or he gave way too many.

lucy and gray are the biggest gossipers in the guild. they know everyone's secrets and while they don't blackmail people, they never hide something from the other. if they're staring at you and whispering, they are talking mad shit or they found out something about you.

juvia and natsu get along alarmingly well. they're not even sure how it works, just that they're so different that it kind of makes them perfect for each other (as friends).

natsu is sting's celebrity crush and he thinks he's doing a great job at hiding it. he's not. everyone knows. rogue knows, lector knows, all of sabertooth knows, all of fairy tail knows, sorcerer weekly knows, natsu knows. no one has the heart to tell him.

juvia doesn't have romantic feelings for lyon but she wants them to be friends so badly. not to get closer to gray, just because she thinks he's really cool and easy to talk to. lyon is so smug about it and gray wants to throttle him for it.

erza and mira's rivalry is alive in the tiniest of ways. they're always having small contests like "i bet i can wash this cup faster than you," or "i bet lucy says hi to me first." there's no hard feelings involved, they just can't help but be a little competitive with each other.

erza was illiterate for a really long time, way longer than she should have been, and makarov felt awful for not realizing it sooner. she was just looking at the reward numbers and going with the flow. on top of that, she has really bad dyslexia, something that somehow went under the radar.

related to the previous headcanon, lucy eventually realizes that the reason natsu has such bad grammar and reading comprehension is because he was tutored by erza, and erza's so bad at writing and understanding big words because she has undiagnosed dyslexia. so takes the time to slowly teach them how to read more complicated things, showing erza ways to read with her dyslexia, and giving them handwriting lessons. the first time erza writes a comprehendible letter is to jellal, and she's absolutely ecstatic about it. natsu is thrilled that he can finally read lucy's book without feeling stupid.

gray teaches wendy a lot about social cues and how to survive in a city as big as magnolia. she grew up very sheltered in a tiny village, so it makes sense that she struggles with "big city living." she's very appreciative and gray is just happy he can be of use.

gray stopped smoking because he heard lucy say she finds smokers unattractive. (gray, in the manga, smoked for a bit, and it's explicitly stated that, at least for the first handful of arcs, he was interested in lucy).

natsu started having romantic feelings for lucy during their fight against kain, but he didn't realize he was in love with her until he watched future lucy die. lucy didn't realize she had feelings for natsu until she realized she was in love with him, which was after the events with the eclipse gate. (the specific moments i'm talking about: kain | future lucy | post-eclipse gate)

between her and gajeel, juvia is the older one. she doesn't give it much thought but gajeel sees her in a big sister role, and has found himself accidentally referring to her as his older sister. which he would rather die than let her find out about.

when asked who she would go after if gray wasn't in the picture, most people expect juvia to say she could never picture a world without gray, but she will look you dead in the eye and, without any hesitation, say, "erza."

gray and loke had something very gay going on before loke went back to the celestial spirit world. the sexual tension between the two of them in this scene is too strong, they've fucked, kissed at least.

when gray realized he liked juvia back, he had a full mental breakdown for several reasons. a fear of intimacy, a fear of losing her like he has every single woman he's ever cared about, and because he just couldn't believe her very weird and very aggressive flirting tactics worked.

in the same vein, evergreen was inconsolable for days when she realized she was in love with elfman. laxus, freed, and bickslow have never been more worried about her mental well-being.

all of crime sorciere have a betting pool on when jellal and erza will get their heads out of their asses. they've had to place new bets several times because they're still dancing around each other. at this point, the betting pool is getting tense, and someone is going to lose so much money.

cobra and jellal kissed once because they were both extremely drunk and extremely sad about their respective crushes. neither of them remember it but the rest of crime sorciere can never forget watching cobra shove his tongue down jellal's throat.

makarov has said "you're like the son i never had" way too many times for it to be an accident.

elfman wants to be a girl dad so bad. he absolutely loves having sisters and he's obsessed with the idea of having a daughter to spoil and dote on.

gray and juvia have a kid before getting married...whoops.

going against the grain and literally what mashima has said, and saying that natsu and lucy have a son before having a daughter. he's a lot like lucy while their daughter is almost exactly like natsu.

yukino is a raging lesbian and is endlessly distressed by how many people think she's in love with sting. her month was ruined when minerva congratulated them on their relationship. completely ignoring the fact that sting is a gay man and is openly down bad for rogue.

rufus and orga have been dating for almost three years and literally no one knows.

lucy cried for three hours when she found out about anna and ichiya.

laxus and freed are in a queer-platonic relationship. laxus is aroace and has no interest in being romantically involved with someone, but he likes the dynamics of dating someone, and freed just likes having someone to spoil (back massages, compliments, all the things freed does in canon).

natsu has ended up in so many situations where he's put in feminine clothing, that he's actually started to kind of like it. he really doesn't mind the idea of wearing a skirt or letting lucy do his makeup. lucy is obsessed with it, and they sometimes do each other's makeup.

romeo is a trans boy and canon is my enemy. macao is extremely supportive and is always introducing romeo as enthusiastically as he can. "this is my son, romeo. isn't he so handsome? just the most handsome boy out there. i'm so proud of my son. he's the best." it's as embarrassing as it is endearing.

gray gets really bad joint pain after using his demon slayer magic, because the demon ice is so cold that it hurts him. thankfully, juvia is always happy to give him massages and crack his back.

natsu had the fattest crush on laxus from the age of thirteen to the very end of the battle of fairy tail arc. everyone just thought he had too much faith in his guild mates, but it was actually because he was so horrendously down bad for laxus that he couldn't accept that he was kind of a psycho.

gray tries so hard to seem cool and nonchalant that he accidentally flirts with basically everyone he interacts with. he thinks he's being cool and mysterious, instead he's making people fall in love with him.

loke tells lucy she's beautiful all the way into her sixties, and he means it every single time.

jude, technically, didn't take layla's maiden name, they just had the most unbelievable coincidence in the world where layla's last name was "heartfilia," while jude's was "heartphilia," so neither of them really saw a point in changing their last names.

juvia and gajeel were not only introduced to the wonders of genuine friendship and family after joining fairy tail, but also the amazing world of weed by cana and bickslow. laxus will never forget walking into his apartment with the thunder legion for the first time in years, and being met with juvia, gajeel, and cana on the couch, passing a blunt, while bickslow was raiding the kitchen.

gajeel and levy elope, only bringing lily and juvia with them as their witnesses. lucy was a little (a lot) insulted by it, but she eventually understood why levy did what she did when her and natsu decided to do the exact same thing, and only bring along their team. basically, elfman and evergreen, and gray and juvia are like the only couples to have a ceremony.

fairy tail has a lot of lawsuits and property damage bills, and freed, levy, and lucy almost had collective aneurysms trying to get through and organize them all. the guild has never spent more money on coffee.

lucy eventually takes advantage of the fact she has a very powerful kick and gets a black belt in taekwondo, a type of martial art that focuses mostly on kicking. her raw leg power combined with knowing what she's doing AND her heels? deadly.

(cw for child abuse on this one, skip if needed) minerva has such a massive appetite because jiemma would starve her both as punishment but also to "make her stronger." her body just never feels full, like the food will be taken away from her again.

sabertooth members calling minerva "m'lady" started as a serious thing to show respect, but now it's a running joke where everyone is trying to be as obnoxious as possible with it.

it's kind of implied that rogue is (at least) sexually attracted to minerva, and the fact larcade's "find out who's a virgin" spell hits him right after seeing minerva being affected by it, makes me think he lost his virginity to her. it was awkward and objectively bad but he's still glad it happened. sting drank an entire bottle of tequila when he found out about it.

getting 1 v. 2-d by natsu was the biggest ego crash sting and rogue have ever, and will ever experience. they will never be able to live it down. it will follow them to their graves. please never talk about how egotistical they used to be, they will cry from embarrassment.

minerva calls everyone's boyfriend their "boy toy" because, and i quote, "i don't respect men."

juvia is the best gift giver you will ever meet. she just has a way of always knowing what's perfect for someone, and it's a mutual agreement to always make her go last for gift giving so everyone else feels better about their gift for at least a few minutes.

natsu is the kind of guy to remember something someone said to him once in passing and randomly bring it up weeks or months later. his brain is a library of miniscule information about the people around him.

gajeel talks trash about levy's romance novels but will also be sneaking peeks over her shoulder and trying not to react to various moments. he is deeply invested in the plot twists and the main characters' romance.

while he's traveling, gildarts will buy cana a gift from every town his visits, which results in him having about a pound of knickknacks, clothes, and alcohol for her when he comes back. she pretends to be embarrassed about it but she secretly loves being spoiled by him.

gildarts and cana go on daddy-daughter dates and she'd rather drink bleach than let other people find out about it. gildarts is just happy to be there.

natsu and cana have had this conversation: "so, are we, like, siblings now?" "excuse me?" "because, like, gildarts is basically my dad, and he's your dad. so..." "we are not siblings, natsu." "okay, didn't know you liked being an only child so much." "go fuck yourself."

gildarts knows lucy is going to be his daughter in law. he doesn't know if it's going to be from her marrying natsu or from her marrying cana.

wakaba would sneak teenage gray cigarettes. erza, mirajane, and makarov almost killed him when they found out about it.

mira is aroace, feeling absolutely no romantic attraction and being sex repulsed, but she is absolutely obsessed with other peoples' love lives. she thrives on it.

lisanna is fairy tail's resident lesbian and is a little in love with every girl she meets.

[shiiro-arts]

Cravings

[lisannastraussisanangel]

Headcanon that after Natsu and Lucy get together, Lucy starts writing letters to their future child. She keeps them in a box next to the ones she writes for her mother. The letters vary from random stories about how they fell in love to advice, but sometimes Lucy writes them in fear that she won't make it to see their child grow up. If something happens to her, she wants her kid to know just how much she loves and cherishes them.
