#physically aggressive!natsu is actually canon i think

in my head and in my heart, i know for a fact that all 3 todoroki children have really unfavorable habits that they got from endeavor.
fuyumi is mean. just honest to god mean. she doesn't even mean it most of them time. just being everyone's emotional support all the time causes her to suppress her meaner emotions and when someone pushes, it all comes out. but there is nothing in the world sharper than fuyumi's tongue on a bad day.
natsuo, ever the middle child. always there and always forgotten. natsuo is quick to get physically aggressive. never on people, god no. but he'll punch through walls like it's nothing. he's had his fingers broken and set more times than he can remember. he hates this part of himself. he already looks so much like enji, does he need to have his father's destructive rage too?
shouto... where to even begin with shouto. the child kept under enji's thumb the longest. shouto is more like enji than he would like to admit. he eats his food the way enji eats his food, greens first then everything else. he does his morning routine a near copy of his father's. this is what happens when you spend every waking moment of the first 15 years of your life with your abuser. that being said, shouto, ignoring the ever present constant thrum of anger that hides just below his skin, shouts a lot when he's angry. it comes from the chest, booming and seething. it scares people. he knows this and he hates that he cannot stop himself.
they don't like thinking about but when it happens all of them can't help but think i'm just like dad.
#god if touya lived long enough he probably would've picked up something really shitty#anyway mean!fuyumi is sooo true to me#that woman bottles up soo much in the hopes of being enough for the people around her#i think this is her worst habit? behavior?#physically aggressive!natsu is actually canon i think#the way he hit that doorframe at the family dinner.... yeah i know what you are#and shou. god i had the hardest time deciding what to choose for shou.#but in the end i went with the way he yelled at that cop after the stain incident#that kind of anger looked a little tooo natural on you my son#anyway i think the punching walls/throwing things started cause natsu was always an angry kid#and like there wasn't much he could do for his sister and brother and he was going crazy hearing his father beat the the shit out of shou#and one day he just snapped and punched the wall of the shed out back and god it felt sooo good and he didn't stop until fuyumi was pulling#him away screaming#god i love todofam angst#todoroki fuyumi#todoroki natsuo#todoroki shouto#todofam#bnha

enixamyram replied to your post: Do you hate miraxus bc lack of moments or bc it’s…
So, no joke. What moments have they actually had? I can only think of two. One where Laxus made Mira cry and where she called him heartless, and one where Mira spoke to him while he was unconscious (something I am sure Mira would do for any other friend if they were in the same situation).
Right? I know shipping is subjective, but those are hardly “moments”. Like I said in my other post, I was genuinely surprised that they were even a thing once I’d caught up with the manga and got into the fandom… I even tried to find some supposed “moments” under their Wikia page to justify them myself, but it was just scarce interaction (that I already knew of) with no romantic subtext; each synopsis was pretty much grasping for straws.
Sorry, I’ve received a fair few asks about this, so I’m just going to bang them all out in one go! ⚠️
Warning: As with my previous posts, the following is quite heavily ‘anti-Mir/axus’. 🚫
Side-note: @anons, a male and female character standing beside one-another or merely communicating doesn’t justify or validate a ship, nor does it provide a rational basis to them being romantic, you know? I mean, just please remember that (non-‘crack’) shipping primarily exists because (at least) one party’s affection is confirmed; they have emphatically expressed romantic interest in the other. In this case, Freed has canon-depicted feelings for Laxus. Whilst Laxus’ knowledge and possible requiting of them is indeed implicit; not yet confirmed but potentially implied (through moments alike to the other ships’), they are usually excused and demeaned... Like, isn’t it odd how a male and female can have the bare minimum – like, a marginally substantial/logical cover – and be accepted without question, whilst a same-sex couple with the same reasoning would be laughed at [for its shippers demanding to take it seriously] and disregarded as “crack”? Fraxus’ moments (some of which paralleling the same dynamic as the semi-canon pairs) are dismissed by some, due to being the same sex, despite various scenes from M/F pair-ups – of a (sometimes) greatly inferior/insubstantial nature – being accepted. When revisiting the Wiki’s cited chapters, I confirmed my views on Mir/axus’ rationality (or, “crack-ship...ness” 😅), as neither Laxus nor Mira have canon-suggested romantic interest in the other... They actually have very limited interaction in general, which is oddly deemed as “evidence”, in spite of their only substantial mutual scenes conveying very negative themes to them as a pairing.
Interaction #1 – Chapter 25:
Mira alerts the Master that one of the requests from the second floor’s [S-Class] board is missing. The entire guild is seen to be shocked, whereas Laxus brushes it off, saying that he had noticed “a cat burglar with wings” sneaking up the night before. Mira, Alzack & Bisca – among other members of the guild – are visibly distressed; concerned for Happy, Natsu & Lucy. Laxus jokes that they that they’ll likely “never come back”/die, in response to Jet’s comment of taking a [higher-class] quest without permission; breaking the rules and potentially warranting expulsion.
Mira is understandably angry that Laxus passively sent unqualified teenagers into danger without a care for their safety, enquiring why he didn’t stop them (since he is one of very few Mages allowed on that floor, Mira included). Again, he makes light of the dire situation, lying that he wasn’t to know it was Happy/for Natsu. Mira reacts with an angry glare, to which Laxus comments he hasn’t seen [the expression] in a long time, referencing her ‘Demon’ persona.
...I’m sorry, but how that has been perceived as romantic? 😬 Mira used to have a very different character; one more akin to her ‘demon’ self, and Laxus – along with the other guild members – have known her long enough to have seen said times when she used her magic much more frequently than she does now, and been present throughout her mellowing change into the much softer person they all know her to be now.
Interaction #2 – Chapter 51:
It’s beyond me how their following interaction can be regarded romantically either! Laxus literally states that he’s – quite vulgarly – sexually attracted to Lucy and harasses Cana...
When the Master is in critical condition [after their conflict with Phantom Lord] and they can’t locate/contact Mystogan, Mira and Cana turn to Laxus for help. They beg him to “come back and help Fairy Tail in its darkest hour”, to which he responds cynically; laughing that Makarov “finally got his [subjective comeuppance]”. He tells them: “Do it yourself”, that it has “nothing to do with [him]”. After arguing that he shouldn’t clean up Makarov’s mess, Mira pleads that he must, since Phantom Lord are “after Lucy”, one of their own. Laxus’ response reads: “Really? So am I!! She’s that new girl with the big jugs, right?”
He continues: “Tell her [Lucy] that if she’ll be my woman, I’ll help out.” He then demands another condition, in which Makarov must retire and make him Master. He voices an evil laugh and proceeds to show his tongue at the notion of Cana stripping for him (“The least you can do is strip for me!!!”) after she becomes enraged and almost insults him, to which he testifies is no way to “nicely ask a guy to do a favour”. He then attempts to persuade her by admitting that he’s “easy when it comes to sexy [people]”, before his Communications Lacrima is destroyed by Mira, who is distressed; crying and infuriated with his refusal to help his supposed friends and by his disgusting behaviour. Her dialogue reads: “I can’t believe that man!!! Can he really be a member of Fairy Tail...?!!”
Both scenes [this chapter & 25] were to provide build-up for Laxus’ upcoming arc, in which he would play the ‘antagonist’; seeking the title of Master and showcasing little care for his grandfather or guild-mates, as hinted here (in both chapters).
If anything, this chapter is more so evidence for La/Lu and Lax/ana; with Laxus showcasing physical attraction to their appearances.
Interaction #3 – Chapter 276:
The next scene is a small comedic panel, in which Mira questions Juvia when wondering if Laxus gets motion sickness [like the other dragon slayers]. He responds: “Don’t say a word to anybody else!” Juvia comments that she thinks “the secret is already out”.
...Apparently that’s a “moment”. Again, it would be a different situation if they were the same sex though, right?
Interaction #4 – Chapter 279:
After Mira’s win against Jenny – wherein she showcased the power of her Satan Soul – Laxus comments [to Jellal] that Mira is someone “you never want mad at you”.
I’ve seen this small panel praised by shippers as a “#proud of bae” moment – in contrast to how I personally perceived it as a funny ‘#big dude scared of sweet, smaller girl’s psycho ass and insane power’ kind of gag – yet my petty ass can’t help but compare Laxus’ expression in [the two focal pages of] chapters 460 & 473, in response to the “proud” remark:
“Thanks a lot, Freed... There’s no wizard that could break your spells...”
The above interactions are as far as Laxus’ point of view in the ship go, as the following are exclusively from Mira’s perspective. Not only are the above panels quite lacking, but they also convey no tangible interest from Laxus himself... I mean, the first two [25 & 51] feature him mocking the guild and actually expressing romantic/sexual interest in two other women. Both show Mira to experience negative emotions to him/his presence, even to the extent of crying. The latter [276 & 279] depict him with an indifferent, dull expression; much like his seemingly tedious/uninterested appearance in the cover pages, which are seen as the prime reasoning behind the ship (of which, I can actually understand).
It might also be worth noting that whilst Laxus was quite emphatically sexually aggressive in chapter 51, he shows no apparent interest – i.e. blushing or otherwise – here. In fact, he actually bears a [“tedious”] sweat-drop. Although, the tips of his fingers do seem to be slightly hidden by her dress. As stated, I (of course) do agree that 380’s cover is the only credible rationale to the ship’s existence, as well as the origin of many of its shippers’ interest.
Interaction #5 – Chapter 286 & 287:
The Wikia page commented here on Mira’s reactions to Laxus’ fight, which again seems to be grasping for straws, considering: ( 1 ) The solo-panel focus on Freed, in comparison to Mira’s group [Team B] shots; signifying her to simply be part of the [guild’s] crowd, rather than receive exclusive attention that would convey importance to that character; like how Levy was depicted separately in Gajeel’s fight against Rogue.
( 2 ) Freed’s intensity and emotions, in comparison to Mira’s:
Considering its argued that Mira has romantic interest in Laxus, you’d think that she’d be a little more expressive during his fight, yet a handful of other (supposedly irrelevant) characters seem to be more distressed seeing him in pain than she does. Even when his fight is announced, whilst Mira does cheer for him with a slight blush, both Natsu and Cana are also depicted with the same expression when they likewise outspokenly support him, which is also the case after his win.
Interaction #6 – Chapter 359:
In regards to the previous chapter [358], the Wikia page states: “When she hears [that Laxus, Freed, Bickslow & Evergreen have been infected], Mira looks both shocked and horrified, more so than the other guild members.” Yet, Elfman and Natsu look equally – if not arguably more – “shocked and horrified” at the news...
Again though – only because it’s pretty relevant – you could compare Freed’s reaction to Laxus’ actions alone, to Mira finding out that all four of them are in poor health (just particularly Laxus more so):
Although, I will admit that the following scene [359] is the only decent, somewhat understandable rationale to the ship – as clarified, alongside 380’s cover – in my opinion. It features [two of] the Strauss siblings seated beside the team in the infirmary. Mira is seated by Laxus and speaks whilst he is unconscious: “Laxus... We heard what you did from Freed...”, “You’ve truly started to put your friends first!”, “I’ll never forget the courage you showed!”
Whilst I still personally perceived this page as more of a sweet FT “nakama” moment – rather than something romantic – finding it more so heartwarming, particularly in light of their past conflict and Laxus’ former behaviour, I can recognise how it might be interpreted in another way, considering her expression. Although, again, I guess a comparison of Mira & Freed’s reactions [to Laxus’ actions] could potentially be argued?
I mean, considering (especially) that Freed is actually confirmed to have romantic interest in Laxus, whereas Mira’s alleged feelings are simply a fandom-based headcanon, you know? Like, the type of affection behind Mira’s panels [in this chapter and the previous one] are still subjective, whilst Freed’s are actually to be understood alongside his existing, known feelings; which places deeper meaning on his pages and strengthens his panels [regarding Laxus].
Other justifications:
Similar to the ridiculous rationale of Ro/wen being shipped solely for being “the same age” – which isn’t even correct – the same basis has been used for Mira and Laxus, which again is incorrect. Despite being seen as two of the oldest [of the younger generation’s] members, the age gap between Mira and Laxus is almost alike to that between Natsu and Wendy* (i.e. 19 & 23 and 12 & 17 – comparably four and five years). *Which, of course, isn’t all too big of a deal once both parties are over 18 (considering its a relatively small bracket), but my point is highlighting the dynamic in how said parties perceive the other due to the age gap.
They’re also shipped because they��re both S-Class members of the guild. Like, what? I don’t personally ship them romantically, but Erza and Mira are also S-Class... Oh, and they actually have plentiful interaction, much more development, substantial chemistry, a plausible history to back them up, etc.
Like I said in my previous post, FT is an emphatic series – i.e. you know of a ship’s existence; usually because one party’s affection is made very apparent, or because they are heavily implied due to the fan-service nature of the series. So if it were any other shonen – of which are usually more implicit in romance and mere interaction can suffice as a ‘moment’ – then I’d give the benefit of the doubt and I probably wouldn’t be as against them as I am. But Mir/axus’ lack of development and panel-time in ten+ years can’t be excused by them being secondary characters or not a “main” ship... I mean, just look at Elfgreen! Or the Sabertooth and other minor guilds’ ships.
Summary:
Mira and Laxus only have three scenes of mutual communication (out of five alleged “moments” throughout the ten year serialisation), with ⅔ on exceedingly negative terms that result in immense opposition, and the other being a small comedic panel with likewise no romantic implication.
Neither party have expressed romantic feelings for the other; stated or otherwise, unlike all other (non-‘crack’) FT ships. Yet Laxus has even gone so far as to showcase sexual attraction to other women.
Outside of his malicious expressions in their first two interactions, Laxus’ emotions proceed to be indifferent and dull in their following two panels.
Again, of course everyone is free to ship what they want; “crack-ship” or not! Hell, I’ve crack-shipped some Naruto pairs as a guilty pleasures myself. But, like I said, my peeve is in others ignoring and replacing present & developed queer ships for heterosexual ‘crack’ ones; claiming them to be anything but and demeaning the homosexual pairing. Like, having panels where male and female characters (who are in the same guild) are in close proximity doesn’t justify them as a romantic pair or act as “proof”, you know? 🙄 But, hey, everything detailed above – as well as my previous posts – are in response to asks and replies! Yeah, I don’t like Mir/axus for reasoning explained, but I love the characters and I didn’t necessarily want to intentionally attack the ship or pit them against Fraxus prior to the messages. So, sorry about that! ✌🏼

Ayesha Liveblogs Fairy Tail S3
Can the narrator really justify the “small peaceful nation” part of the intro after a morality weapon was resurrected and almost destroyed a ghost town
“Flower parties are freakin’ manly!” Elfman isn’t here for your gender roles
My sweet stripper son:
Erza: Have you considered putting on a shirt?
Gray: [Growls]
“Don’t get cold feet” I love shitty battle puns
The implication that Natsu would literally move the heavens and the earth for Lucy is beautiful
I can’t believe that disaster of a play exists in continuity
“I need your guidance Laxus” When Freed is faced with difficult decisions he looks into the sky and sees Laxus in the clouds
“A real man never uses his brain” I mean... tru
Gray just fucking peacefully iceskates past a pile of his friends
“You and me aren’t married okay” “Then why are you blushing” Baby Natsu and Lisanna are so cute

Poor Natsu he doesn’t even get sad about Lisanna’s death he’s mad
Natsu @ Gildarts: You’re not my real dad!
DRUNK GAJEEL SEARCHES FOR KITTY CATS
Mystogan is Wendy’s Jellal oh no the one nice thing Jellal thinks he did his whole life was a lie
I fucking love Natsu’s nicknames for Gray: Frosty, Freezer Burn, Snowflake <3
“We need to talk, it’s time you learned to grip it right” Gray pls
“I wish something interesting would happen today,” said Lucy, shortly after Mystogan announced the impending apocalypse
This is the second time that everything Wendy knows and cares about has evaporated right before her eyes yikes
Based on this intro everyone’s going to meet their AU selves in Edolas and I’m really curious if AU Gray is just going to put on more clothes
“If none of our buddies are in this world, what would be the point of coming back here anyway?” Natsu <3333333
“We gotta walk somewhere, so why not this way?” shit u right Natsu
AU Gray does wear too many clothes I love it
Oh no Lisanna’s probably still alive in this universe
“Why isn’t Cana half-naked and fully drunk?” Cana is a mess
Natsu, weeping: The Gray I know would be half-naked by now
“I’ve never seen a frog like this! We should take it back for Lucy as a souvenir” Amazing his friends are trapped in a giant crystal and he’s still thinking about what they might enjoy as keepsakes
I think Scary Lucy is in love with Natsu
But how did Gajeel get to Edolas without a magical flying cat?
“This Gajeel’s a freelance journalist, better get the scoop on him” I wonder if his political activist alter ego also uses terrible wordplay
“Being bossed around is kind of a nice change” Kinkshame Scary Lucy
It makes sense that Lucy’s the only one who can use magic here because her magic isn’t tied to Earth
Gentle Fro Gajeel bonding with Angry Spiky Gajeel is great
Lmao @ Mystogan just tossing up random members of a Fairy Tail up into the sky and also it seems abundantly clear at this point that he’s Edolas Jellal
Natsu [Aggressive Roadster voice]: My Lucy
I guess Edolas Natsu is only ballsy while inside moving vehicles
“Not exactly my idea of a dictatorship” Clearly you have never seen footage produced by any dictatorship ever
Nalu must be canon because she just gave him the Hug of Passionate Restraint
Ngl this cat drama is a bit Much for me I don’t even like Happy
This is some dark philosopher’s stone ass shit that I didn’t really expect from Fairy Tail yikes there’s no moral dilemma for these people
How come Gajeel can use his magic??
Honestly the greatest suspension of disbelief in this show is pretending Happy does not sound like a whiny adult woman
The way they told that story at first made it seem like all 100 eggs belonged to Happy’s parents
I’M SCREAMING THE REAL GRAY AND ERZA ARE BACK MY SWEET NAKED AND VIOLENT CHILDREN
I love their entrance bathed in ethereal light and also the fact that their combined magical power was enough to fill a town square
Ohhhh so that’s why Lucy can use her powers because Mystogan gave her the crazy red pills
Gray, trying to give medicine to a person who is out cold: Come on, open your mouth, you loser
“I was wondering what he popped in my mouth,” I'm concerned about you Lucy
Gray just faded into transparency because he was being ignored amazing
“Do you want get in the middle of that?” “You know, you make a good point” I missed Gray’s and Lucy’s asides <3
Gray did you need to pin Lucy down to protect her you are so Extra and I love it
Gray just... fucking chucked Lucy.... twenty feet in the air GOOD LORD
Oh my god is Panther Lily going to become Gajeel’s magical flying cat
“You’re not dead, are you? Yell if you’re dead!” NATSU PLS
“I have to care about her, because it’s obvious that you don’t!” Lucy is so powerful and kind I love her
Full offense but I’m going to marry Gray Fullbuster
“I’m still making you my cat” he said, before beating the shit out of a man-sized panther
I bet Good Erza robbed Bad Erza lmao beautiful
Why are neither Gray nor Natsu attempting to retake their hostage
None of the Edolas boys have this same need for angry haircuts
The Cat Drama has reached new heights but I’ve slowly grown fond of it
Did Panther Lily save Mystogan?? Oh the answer is yes
What the ever loving fuck that was an abrupt cut off to an almost happy ending
I can’t believe Mystogan is a prince and also that no one is reacting to the fact he is Edolas Jellal
“I’m sure he’ll feel right at home crawling along the ground with the other pests” Apparently there is a worse dad than Papa Heartlessfilia in this show
Natsu as Daenerys Targaryen: Fire cannot kill a dragon
Fairy Tail is full of Human Disasters no matter what universe
Erza, every time she puts on a new suit of armor: My strongest armor
I love that Erza, Gray and Natsu all give their opponents speeches on the morality of their decisions as they fight
“Is a floating island going to fall on our house?” no one ever said that Mystogan was great at foresight
“But Edolas had a pretty good run, huh?” said Hughes, just calmly fucking watching the apocalypse
Why is Jellal always trying to get himself killed no matter what universe
I’m crying I love Space Jellal
The fist pumping is killing me
“What an overachiever!” Gajeel is so happy to have his own kitty cat
Every time Natsu tries to hug Lisanna someone physically restrains him
I’m so happy for Mira and Elfman and Natsu <3
This is going to be so weird for Fairy Tail to them it’s like they passed out and they wake up to their friends bruised and bloody, Mystogan gone forever, a baby panther in Gajeel’s arms and someone back from the dead
Hughes, about his own execution: Seriously, it’s not a big deal, just do it!
Jellal did the thing! The Fairy Tail thing again my sweet son
The implication of Mystogan having joined Fairy Tail as a child means that he’s been walking around in a full cloak since he was like 10
Lmao @ Natsu dreaming about fighting Gray
The unnecessarily intimate and homoerotic friendship chain continues as Lucy and Cana bathe together
Literally their legs are intertwined together underwater?? This is Extremely Gay and I love it
“Forget your clothes again?” “Don’t have time to worry about that!”
Ggekghjrhgkhkg Gray using one of Lucy’s spirits as his partner 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
“At this point I’d put almost anything in my mouth as long as it’s cold” ... Like an ice wizard? 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
GRAY IS LITERALLY THIS MEME:
I arrive at S-Class Trials
Ship: Crowded
Partner: Loke
Dick: Out
I am forcibly clothed at S-Class Trials
Gajeel using Levy’s head as an armrest pls
Makarov @ an Ice Wizard: Chill
“What sort of vulgar sorcery is this?” Omg Freed is so nervous around scantily-clad women I love it
I guess Freed and Bickslow throwing the fight makes more sense than if they were defeated through the power of sex and cotton candy
“There is one thing you still lack” Self control?
This was actually a pretty accurate guess
Mystogan’s a little young to have an adult man as his pupil
Hard for Emo Wizard to avoid confrontation when everyone in this guild takes “I could kill you” as an invitation to fight
I guess it says a lot about Natsu that Gildarts has been mentoring him for many years and yet he still thinks of the dragon as his dad
