how did zeref create the dragon slayers?? and are natsu and zeref still brothers

fanstuffrantings answered:

As I answer this I want to note: a lot of these ideas are from 2022 and not as fresh in my head, and rewriting the lore of fairy tail has taken a backset to my own personal story so things can get muddy and may change.

  • First zeref has a parent/child dynamic with the dragon slayers. None of them really know him but he is their creator and has a certain level of fondness for all of them. Natsu he's actually disappointed in. I'll explain in a moment.
  • Zeref is cursed due to hubris and how he dug into every type of magic no matter how taboo just to learn and gain power in this au. He had a love of learning and a zest for life that ultimately leads to him corrupting the very core of magic causing death and desolation around him.
  • He's only able to be killed by people blessed by divinity, however out of pettiness as gods can often be, no truly blessed mages have been found since Zeref was cursed.
  • And by divinely blessed I don't mean magic based in divinity. I mean a child the gods claim as their own. Someone made holy without training for it.
  • He takes matters into his own hands and crafts children to act as sponges for dragon magic since in this version dragons are children of God's who have taught humans before. Zeref's idea is that maybe this could work in killing him.
  • Irene would have known him from this point and she's the reason the dragons take in the children at all. But when it comes to Zeref, anyone who assists him is worthy of sharing in his punishment and she's given a similarly horrible one to endure for it.
  • The thing is he knows for someone to kill him of their own free will he'd need to be hated. He'd need people who are angry and volatile. And natsu being the fire dragon slayer really should've been perfect for that but the dude is just too friendly and happy. Causing zeref to think him the biggest mistake of all.

Again: I really would need to sit down and spend a few hours/days figuring it out and most likely rewatching fairy tail to refamiliarize myself with the finer details but this is the gist. A lot of Zeref meddling in humanity is for the sake of finding his own oblivion. He's in a way killed what magic once was and can't find peace in the world because he corrupts everything. He absorbs things around him to keep himself alive unwillingly. If he doesn't absorb life he starves but exists until something appears that he can take from.

I hope this is good enough for now! Sorry if it's a garbage answer, I'm aware I need to revise and focus on it. Unfortunately my mind goes where it wants and it hasn't settled into lore building in a while.

Thank you for the question!

OK OK it's so hard to choose for fairy tail redesigns because I am obsessed with your redesigns in general lol so I know it's gonna be good. Because I can't choose: cobra or a sabretooth member would be fab!!

fanstuffrantings answered:

Thank you! That's sweet!

I'm going to be completely honest and say I do really like a lot of the original sabertooth designs. Sting specifically might be my favorite character design mashima has ever made. That said, rogue really wasn't not for me. I can't tell if it was the design or my tastes that are the issue here. I think one day I'll go in and sketch the rest of the competing team in my style with some tweaks.

One day I will draw Cobra. I do largely like his designs even if they're safe for mashima.

Bonus: demon Minerva redesign since instantly when I saw sabertooth that's who I thought of

Big shoutout to @pencilofawesomeness & @grayseyebrowscar in @theguildawards server for all their help with this chapter <3

Summary: After one of their teams is ambushed while on a job, the Fairy Tail Guild is left to pick up the pieces. Navigating their grief over the deaths of their guildmates, the guild struggles to move forward, especially when those responsible haven't been held accountable. As each member grapples with their new reality, Lucy and Gray are determined to claim vengeance. But perhaps they underestimated their enemy and exactly how far their master plan stretched. Fairy Tail must lean on each other to survive, but more importantly, figure out what comes next after the dust settles.

no I'm so serious. I'm thoroughly convinced this is how I got so close to my online friends. a significant amount of bonding with my s/o came from rping together. tumblr rp introduced me to new mutuals. writing trr brought me so much closer to the person I wrote it with. this applies to irl friends too. my irl I worked on cosplay and fanfic and oc stories with, it brought us closer. sharing your creativity with someone, creating something with someone, creates an inseparable bond between you and them. in this essay I will
