Guess who drew a biblically accurate Erza.... Me! My art account on instagram is @thespiralknight btw (Im planning to post some more Fairy Tail fanart there)

Just noticed that in the fake tweet I posted I did a mistake by not typing 'at your house' and just wrote 'at house' for Erza's tweet to lucy. But then I remembered how terrible Erza's writing skills are in canon so I guess that makes it canonically accurate. 😆

Though I know it wasn't a big mistake but still. Maybe I should have made more mistakes in her tweet for the sake of her being in character. Lol.

Ngl Erza being angry because someone ruined her cake which is her favorite food is the most relatable thing ever. (Who wouldn't internally get unhappy and angry if their favorite food was ruined? 🥲)

Guys it happened I finally fucking managed to draw Erza

It only took me like 50 tries and a 6$ brushset and a complete artstyle overhaul, shoutout to ezmilart for allowing me to do what I do best - glamor shots of the FT girls (got a Lucy in the works too :3)

hey I think people should give me fairy tail art prompt asks on here. I think that’d be cool and neat actually. I’m already drawing gmg!lucy rn but I think y’all should tell me who else to draw

for bonus motivation and to give you a sense of my style have a drawing of erza and my oc vermillion shit-talking their terrible blue-coded bfs <3

okay i know a lot of people were (are?) mad at mashima for removing erza as master and giving it back to makarov, or think he's a coward for doing it, but i personally feel it was the best decision he made. like yes, at the time, erza was the only one with the right mental fortitude to take on the role and raise the banner so that they could reform fairy tail as their home instead of continuing to remain apart.

but in the long run? it would've destroyed her.

from a very young age, she's known nothing but responsibility. in rosemary village where she lived, she felt responsible enough to sacrifice her own life for kagura's, when im very certain they barely knew each other, most likely stemming from her not having any home to call her own within the village.

then in the tower of heaven, while they were all in the same boat, erza took on the responsibility of being the older sibling for sho and milliana (and wally too im sure) with grandpa rob, simon, and jellal, being her only outlets of outer support. grandpa rob then died for her; the very first adult she had ever seen as family... gone. and it was all her fault, a guilt she'll bear for the rest of her life. to make it worse, jellal forces her out, manipulating her to stay quiet about the rest of her friends still suffering in the tower by holding their lives against her. again, she has to make herself strong, as she loses the minor family she had forged for herself.

then comes her time at fairy tail and the second we're introduced to her, we see her as this strict disciplinarian. she feels responsible for everyone's actions, sternly keeping them in line. gray, who was her first friend in the guild, is terrified of her wrath. mira, who used to be her one peer, no longer holds that relationship with her due to her loss of lisanna. at every turn, erza is alone and isolated, using her responsibilities as an S-class mage as a crutch.

then comes the toh arc, erza faces her demons. and it is only after that arc that she finally FINALLY lets her guard down. she joins in the brawls of the guild, indulges in the girly things she scorned in the past, and lets herself be silly and friendly and open. she is finally able to be peers with everyone in the guild, not stand alone and above them.

being master would drag her right back into her old self, crumbling under the weight of all her responsibilities. unlike makarov, she wouldn't ignore the demands of the council. unlike macao, she wouldn't have a small guild who barely caused any problems. and unlike sting, she wouldn't be able to go out and about in the world, leaving the duties of master to someone else. she'd be in her little office all day, desk piled sky high with complaints and bills from all the property damage, and erza scarlet would again forget how to have fun.

so yes, perhaps it shouldn't have been makarov being guild master for the third time. but erza certainly should not have stayed on as fairy tail's seventh master.
