DAY 2 - No Magic AU @gratsuweek2026

[madame-kiksters]

Different First Meet

I scrambled to make a piece for @gratsuweek2026 based on salem-v's written submission <3<3<3

She let me sample it before posting it as she was editing to get my feedback. I have not watched the show but we have been doing writer's club together and she has single handedly gotten me into Gratsu (among other ships). From my end, they're original works with some unspoken lore that she explains to me as it becomes relevant xD

I had something more akin to the most memorable part of the fic but the power blinked right as I was saving and CSP has a dogshit backup save system in place so the corrupted file LITERALLY only had the gesture drawing with the eye and ear in place when I had JUST finished the first sketch so, this one became more of a meme style quick draw over a ref pic just to get it done TvT

Feel free to check out her fic! I love her writing so much!!

[salem-v]

Thank you for your support twin <3

I wouldn't have gotten as much of my wips done without u cracking the whip

“Hey.”

Gray forced himself to raise his head.

“Are you alive?” Pinky asked, his green slitted eyes seemed to glow in the smoke from the flames. “I didn’t burn you, did I?” He outstretched his hand to Gray.

Gray took the warm hand and let Pinky haul him into a sitting position.

“Oh.” Pinky blinked as his eyes caught on the guildmark. “That mark…that means you’re part of a guild, right?”

(Fairy Tail Gratsu Week Day 1: Different First Meet). Or: Natsu doesn't join the guild as a kid, and meets Gray when their young teenagers instead. Their meeting is a bit more pleasant this time around; don't worry, they're still rivals and lovers.

DAY 1 - Scarf @gratsuweek2026

NatsuGray Week (Gratsu Week) 2026 Day 1: Scarf

Natsu's scarf is nowhere to be found. Little does he know that the said scarf is now on the ice mage's hands. And the said mage is sleeping while wearing Natsu's scarf.

and just WHO is going to stop me from writing queer platonic nalu

natsu existing on the aro-ace spectrum. and lucy loving him and accepting him for who he is.

and hell maybe lucy's somewhere on the spectrum too. idk. her needs and wants? a partner, someone to stay by her side, to SEE her and care about her, to LISTEN to her (in the serious moments, even tho we know natsu stays tuned into her). it doesnt need to be traditional.

and she knows and is shown that natsu gives her all of that. she wants for nothing in their relationship. All she wants is natsu, and she's got him.

if you're sitting on a fanfic idea because you think it's "too weird" or "too niche" I need you to understand something: the internet is VAST and FULL of people with your exact brand of weird. that crackship that makes sense only to you? there are at least 50 people who will read it and go "oh my god FINALLY." but even if there were ZERO? you still deserve to write the thing that makes your brain light up.

I love tumblr because somehow I can end up being mutuals with a celebrity (someone that wrote a fic that I loved)

[peg-the-empire]

shoutout to everyone in small fandoms who takes a character with one minute of screentime and decides to build an entire universe around them. to the oc creators, the rarepair shippers, the canon-divergence enthusiasts and the people who can’t stop asking “but what if?” and then proceed to spend 50k words answering their own question.

i genuinely think your joy is contagious. fandoms grow because people see someone having fun and think, “wait, i want to play too.” <3

[ominous-signs]

Hey can you message me? I have something important to tell you about to your account , but i cant send you a message because i got spammed :(

Good opportunity to use this ask and tell people

This is a scam-tactic. Do not reply or dm back such accounts.

Been seeing the same copy-paste messages across tumblr in comment sections, but this is the first time I get one of them in my ask box.

Such messages may also say “I can’t dm you and I don’t know why???” at the end

[ralfmaximus]

Yup. If you interact they will send you a fabricated "screenshot" of incriminating evidence about your blog, along with emergency time sensitive instructions to save your blog before it's too late.

Just block and report.

[ominous-signs]

Oh yeah forgot to even explain the scam, thank you

[miyu-writings]

Hahaha...

So, Gratsu Week is nearly upon us.

My current mood:

I'm so behind on my plans. OTL

So much to write still. Shit. Need to do focusss!

[willgrahamscock]

any time I tell my mutual about the fic i'm 'writing' and they ask me where they can read it
