Does anyone know where I could buy that one tote bag that used to be sold by Rboz? The one with Gajevy and Lily laying down on the ground image? I've been wanting to buy a RBOZ Gajeel x Levy bag for the longest but I didn't have money at the time since I was a kid. Now I regret not buying since Rboz took down their Society 6 store . Plss anyone knows what I'm talking about!

Y’all need to start telling me about these character days before the day of

[joocin-thebox]

Oh I'm so sick in the head for gajevy I'm SO sick I'm ill it's fatal

[fairydares]

I'll tell you what piece of rboz art I miss, it was the one of Erza fighting 100 monsters and on the other side of the page Jellal (wandering outside Domus Flau looking for Zeref-related evidence) claws dramatically at his chest and says, "I just know Erza's doing something really cool right now and I'm missing it..."

hi, as a concept for a gajevy daughter name that’s not Emma (cause I also don’t really get the appeal of that), what’s your opinion on Belno maybe being an option for a name? Alternatively, do you know why Emma kinda exists as a semi-popular idea? Cause I’ve seen it more than once over the years and I’m genuinely confused ‘cause it’s fine I guess but why that specific name of all things?

hey!! belno for gajevy daughter is pretty ok! i’ve seen it like. once i think. i don’t really like naming their kids after belno or metalicana bc it’s just not my thing but it’s much better than emma at least! i get the sentiment with naming them after influential figures in gajeels life but again, i wouldn’t do that but that’s just my opinion.

(for the next section, please keep in mind i don’t really like rboz, so i’m pretty biased)

and yeah i do know why emma is used semi-popularly! there used to be this really popular gajevy artist, rboz, (left the fandom bc of all the reposters, tracers, and probably other reasons) who created an older sister to the twins (i don’t know if they created her before news about the twins or after but you get it) and bc the artist was so popular other people started to name gajevy kids in kidfics and such emma ! which is like good for her i guess?? 🙃

[AU] White sands. Crystal blue water. Margaritas and cocktail umbrellas. It's a destination getaway for most. For Levy, it's a vacation and her friend's wedding. For Gajeel, it's a mundane, on-site, company project. For both, it's accidently figuring out the best way to get away is to run away.

Drama, romance, some comedy, maybe a little mystery.

Rated T-M. Multi chapter.

Tag people you would like to get to know better

Thank you so much for tagging me @litterateur97 😁❤️ This was fun 😁🤩

Three Ships?

Lxmisa from death note. Have been shipping them since 2016 😍. All it took was this below scene 🤭. So even if they don't make sense, I will make them make sense to you 😘

Kaihil from Beyblade. I shipped them when I didn't know the meaning of shipping 😅 Beyblade V-force was streaming on toonami those days. Back then, I liked seeing Hiromi with both Kai and Tyson 😂. Then years passed. In my gap year, I re-watched both Digimon and Beyblade. And my love for kaihil reignited all over again. It only grew stronger when I was browsing ffn and deviant art all night 😍

Ulquihime from bleach. Funny story about them; I wouldn't have shipped them if it weren't for coming across gorgeous art of them by rboz. Wanting to know more about them, I started watching and reading bleach. So imagine my shock and misery when I came to know what happens in the end 😭🥲 but oh well, such is life and Kubo 😒. Still got the wonderful fandom where I can muse about them 😍❤️

2. First ship?

Kaihil was going to be here but I wouldn't count that because the grip they still have on me is insane 😭😍 So I am going to chose Kaede and Dylan from Mirmo anime

I would watch the show after coming back from school 🥹 the Hindi dub made it all more funnier. I was so happy when Kaede and Dylan got together 😭😍

3. Last song?

Dil Kay Isharay (DKI) by Taha G. It's an Urdu song and Taha G is so talented 💛🌻

4. Last movie?

White Chicks 🌚 this movie never gets old 😂

5. Currently reading?

Atomic habits by James Clear 🥲. I am right now trying to fix my routine and failing quite miserably in it. So while the boat is sinking, I am reading the said self help book to see if it would make any difference. So far it has kept me engaged 👀.

6. Currently watching?

Emily in Paris (S2). You have every right to judge me 🥲 but I just wanted to see what the hype was all about. And even though the show is patsy and Emily is starting to infuriate me (like girl you like Gabriel!!! Why the hell are you insistent in getting him back with his ex?! 😭), I can see why people like it. It's overall light-hearted and funny at some scenes.

Other than that, I am binge watching on friends sitcom along with my sister. Also I am watching the local urdu TV drama as well ' Mujhay pyaar hua tha'.

7. Currently consuming?

Roasted cashews 🤤

8. Currently craving?

Chicken Alfredo pasta 😭

9. Tagging now; @jkrobertson @kaflowypiec @neomoreheroes @green-mint @ishkajules @shewhodancedinthemoonlight, @professorchameleon @squicky-fannish-discourse @smoochme @wolborgie and anyone else who wants to do it 😁

Have fun 🌻

Okay I actually wanted to go ahead and share the link to rboz's patreon:

She does art work for a ton of fandoms including demon slayer and spy x family. Please support her after what happened with this fandom, reposters get blocked. Irdgaf if you're here to "have fun" and "tap out of moral policing for a bit" or think you get a free pass because it's fan content. It's called not being a twat and, as stated above, it's a core value of this collectively shared hobby/interest.

For a long time now, the Fairy Tail fandom has had an art theft problem that is running rampant, particularly in the nalu fandom.

Much of it has gone unchecked due to ignorance and the name of keeping the peace, but we no longer feel comfortable standing by and allowing it to happen.

Reposting fanart is art theft. It always has and it always will be.

Artists, both in our fandom and outside have consistently added disclaimers that their art is not free to repost. While some artists have given permission to repost art, that is not blanket permission for every artist. Most artists who have had their art reposted to tumblr do not express permission to do so. Many already have tumblr accounts where they have posted their art in the past.

Not only is it just disrespectful to artists, but it disregards the fact that fandoms are built on a social contact wherein we respect each other's work and the time and effort that is put into creating it. By reposting art without explicit permission and credit, you are stomping on that social contract.

Fan artists have, will and do leave fandoms over stolen artwork. It has happened to this fandom before. It will happen again.

@nalufan001 and @ravewoodx have been the biggest offenders, and while they have been rather consistently called out for it, people who we recognise as fellow creatives within our fandom still actively engage with their posts.

If you value the work of our fandom's incredible artists, please do not engage with these blogs. Do not allow them to gain notes off of work that is not theirs. Do not allow them to think that it is acceptable to continue doing this.

It does not matter if they have not directly taken credit for these artworks. It does not matter if they're doing this in the name of "sharing artwork". It is not theirs to share and they don't have any rights to do so.

If you see a post and are unsure if the work is stolen, here is a good guide to spotting art theft.

Please always remember to respect fan creators. They are the backbone of fandom and they share their creations with us freely and willingly. To respect the rights of their work, to credit them, to reblog their artwork from the source, is the least that we can do for creators.

Ugly crying bc Big Bro Gajeel helping Wendy when she gets to metal-based crafts.

I can just imagine him outwardly scoffing at the suggestion of using his ~dragon slayer powers~ for mere arts & crafts but discreetly helping anyway. If Wendy is gonna mess with iron she is going to Mess With Iron properly dammit!

I like to think she'd start small and therefore could make lil weapons for the exceeds since they all want to be cool like Pantherlily. Also fulfills a covert iron jewelry/accessory request for Levy that may or may not make Gajeel regret his life choices. Maybe she even makes those matching pendants [from rboz's panels] for Gajeel & Levy (or he gets the idea from matching bracelets she makes for him)

(Something something Wendy, Natsu, and Gajeel make a forge with their powers)

(Makarov balks at the shenanigans that thus ensue)

fairy tail dragon slayer headcanons pt. 1

♡ what the first gen and second gen dragon slayers eat is pretty self-explanatory. all of their elements are... somewhat tangible. sting and rogue though? they're still figuring it out. rogue wonders if he can eat someone else's shadow, and sting immediately volunteers himself. "for science!" he says. the result is that sting almost passes out. oops. he insists they try on their friends, much to rogue's displeasure. the results are that sting is the most susceptible, then yukino, rufus, orga, and minerva is the least susceptible to magic drainage. sting insists rogue tries to eat an inanimate object's shadow, and nothing happens to it, so they decide that's the way to go.

♡ when wendy eats air, the oxygen levels thin. she has to be careful or she'll cause her allies and enemies alike to pass out. when sting eats light, the area gets darker and darker. this is great for rogue, who starts eating the shadows, and they manage to balance each other out.

♡ sting insists that different types of light taste differently. his favorite is light from golden hour, right when the sun is dipping below the horizon. moonlight will do in a pinch, but it's so diluted that it takes way more of it to recover sting's magic. he also gets sick if he eats too much moonlight.

♡ pantherlily already has transformation magic and enhanced strength, and carla learns to transform so she can help wendy fight. the other three exceeds feel... a little left out. happy learns how to fly faster and for longer (though he still complains about lucy being heavy). lector goes to porlyusica and wendy to learn some stamina regeneration spells for sting. everyone is surprised when frosch, completely on their own, manages to learn an adorable light spell that creates floating pink bubbles. rogue can consume the shadows from them without worrying about draining frosch's magic, and he spends the entire afternoon crying about it.

♡ dragon slayers are a bit like crows. their way of bonding with someone is through gifting trinkets. natsu will bring lucy, erza, and even gray pretty rocks or seashells that he's found on jobs. wendy picks up a new craft or hobby every week, so the members of fairy tail are constantly recieving handmade accessories from her (gajeel helps during the metalsmithing phase). gajeel does not buy cute things for people. he is like a dad in the fact that, when juvia mentions she wants watermelon, he buys her 20 watermelons. walking math problem fr.

♡ laxus has mixed feelings about his more draconic features and habits. he's never loved his magic because of the way he got it, and the memory of his father basically torturing him as he inserted the lacrima will stay with him forever. he tends to suppress dragon instincts more than anyone else in the group, and they all scold him for it. on a rare occasion, laxus will give in and buy something shiny (like a hairclip) for wendy. she has a little jewelry box for them that she guards fiercely.

♡ cobra considers himself more of a flying snake than a dragon. he once drew a picture that sent everyone into a laughing fit. he prefers to stick with the old oración seis crew, but the guild dragon slayers are always happy to see him when he stops by with crime sorcière.

♡ sting, because of his heightened senses and his affinity for light, prefers nighttime. the day can often be overwhelming, and overexposure to bright settings and lots of people leaves his skin buzzing. he likes to sit in the dim guild hall, leaning against the cool stone wall, as the chatter of the crowd quiets down with the setting sun.

♡ dragon slayers all have the Bite instinct. some exercise a degree of control about it, and others go crazy with it. wendy will very gently nibble on erza or mira's arm when she's in the mood, and sometimes she does it absentmindedly. natsu, on the other hand, is an absolute menace. multiple of erza's armor sets have natsu-shaped bite marks on them. he tends to go after her the most because he knows he won't hurt her with the armor. when natsu's more calmed down, he will chomp on lucy's shoulder. gajaeel copes by eating all of fairy tail's silverware (mira starts buying ceramic spoons), but when levy offers her wrist to him he can't help it.

♡ rogue is another one who doesn't really bite people. he, very rarely, nips at frosch's ears, which causes the exceed to giggle. sting is a Biter like natsu, but with slightly more decorum. he really wants to go at it but will restrain himself because most people aren't willing to be treated like a chew toy. luckily for him, gray and cana aren't most people! because they both wear pretty exposing clothing, gray and cana have no qualms about showing off sting's bite marks on their skin. sting always turns bright red when they tease him about it.

♡ laxus and cobra don't really feel the Bite instinct due to being second gen, but cobra is a little shit and bites people for the fun of it. laxus is completely unbothered when natsu clings to him like a koala and gnaws at him.

Not to be an insufferable self-proclaimed "fandom elder", but it's funny returning to the Fairy Tail fandom now having first started watching the show in (I think?) 2014. The Tumblr porn ban seriously did like an incalculable amount of damage to this fandom. rboz--an artist whose art many current fans frequently mistake for canon and who Mashima himself has praised and frequently retweeted--got deleted. (so i was wrong about this! rboz largely left the fandom because of the art reposting, which...is depressing, but does not surprise me. however, i think rboz would have been taken down anyway because a lot of their art was straight smut). This, to me, epitomizes what the porn ban did to this fandom.

A lot of the discussions I read about Fairy Tail are good, but also sort of funny to see because almost all of this is ground which has been so extensively covered and discussed by thousands of fans who were deleted or left. I'll search the "nalu" tag and see a ton of people debating whether or not Natsu has romantic feelings for Lucy or knows he has romantic feelings for Lucy, and all I can think of are those deep-diving painstaking analysis posts on their relationship, drawing on quotes from Mashima himself. Around the time Phoenix Princess came out, he explicitly said that Natsu loved Lucy, but didn't believe Lucy felt the same and so kept it to himself.

Idk. I don't mean to be an obnoxious "fandom elder" as I've already said, but I can't help mourning what was taken from us sometimes. If I can find any of the posts I'm talking about I'll reblog this and add them.

[scarletgray]

I finally found rboz after seeing art every freaking where and wondering who the artist was till my stupid ass finally saw the tiny @rboz on the pictures and now the tumblr is deactivated? :(
