I'm glad you appreciated my review. Thanks for the update on my B-day, by the way .

As for your story... I'm still enjoying the progress of it. I think I can see where you're going with the next chapter.

My guess... Laxus saves Lucy from Gajeel just after he has beaten her half to death.

That's just my guess. Please keep up the good work.

love it, kiss

I loved this chapter! Can't wait for the next one!

Binged your story in one sitting And I’m on tether hooks waiting for the next chapter! Can’t wait to read Your next chapter! I’m secretly hoping Fantasia doesn’t happen as canon but I can see Laxus taking one step forward and two steps back.

First of all, don’t apologize for your dyslexia. You’re writing is good! My friend who had dyslexia has some one proof read everything she writes but she also leaves what she’s written and comes back to it a few hours or days later to look at it with fresh eyes. She sometimes reads out loud what she’s written. Hope these might help you! Can’t wait to dive in to the rest of your story :)

I can't wait for the next chapter. I love LaLu.

Man, I really love your writing, I understand why Laxus had to be an ass in order to keep with the sort of person he was at that time, I just hope he comes through for Lucy! I’m loving this and can’t wait for more!

You 100% did something drastic enough. I LOVE how you're changing the timeline. Not too much but just enough to create such a different story line. It would be rather interesting to see how Laxus will react this time. Would he fight in the battle now? Perhaps even replace Natsu? It's a small change but I feel like it would have a big impact. The guild would look at him better and maybe, just maybe, LucyxLaxus would be a little bit closer. But then, I don't know if Gajeel would survive the fight lol.

All in all, yet another beautiful chapter! I'm so glad I found this fanfic since LucyxLaxus fanfics are so little especially if they're good quality like this. I hope to see more and would be willing to wait as long as it takes. Until then-

Omg! I'm so excited for the next chapter! Will this be enough to dislodge head from ass or just enough to loosen it? I don't know but can't wait to find out! I really like the liberties you are taking with the story arcs. (If that makes sense?) It's what fanfiction is all about! Well, to me at least lol.

I really enjoy this story, with this chapter though I noticed that the transition from the last chapter to this one...is nonexistent? It feels like there’s whole scenes missing to explain how we got from where we left off last chapter with Laxus and Lucy to team Natsu coming home. Like you don’t need to explain the mission, (if it’s not relevant and doesn’t better the story then it’s not needed), but like a little context would have been nice: ie were they acting normal after that convo and how it left off? Or did they feel awkward? How soon after did Laxus go off on his mission? The next day, or was he just a no show at the guild for a while after that? What about Lucy and team Natsu, when did they go off on their mission? What about when did they get back? A week after the last scene in the last chapter? Two weeks? What? It doesn’t even need to be detailed, or a straight explanation; just bits of info dropped in here and there in the thought processes and convos, “that took longer than I thought, I can’t believe we were gone for x length of time” and “I didn’t see person x at the guild the next couple days, I kept waiting for them to show up but they hadn’t made an appearance by the time ...blah blah blah”. It doesn’t need to be an info dump (like I just did) but giving context to the continuum of the story is never a bad thing. Building on that, though they were slightly less jarring to the flow of the story, were the major scene AND POV changes; easy to keep up with if you know cannon because you know where you’re (as in you the author) are going, but they didn’t feel like natural switches for a lot of the same reasons, your just dropped into them abruptly and then it’s just like okay now we’re here, and now we’re back, with no explanation of how say Lucy from one scene to the next after a major scene/POV change got from where she previously was to where she is now. I’m only writing this, like, essay about this because as I mentioned - I really like this story, and you’re really good at writing it, but previously the story (both yours and the cannon story) was largely told from Lucy’s POV and when it wasn’t or when it switched there was a built in cannon switch board that did what I mentioned above already in the story telling for you to use, but from here on out the way the cannon story is told can get much more abrupt and theoretical in how it changes the scene or character POV - in a way that is very good for the visual mediums of story telling but not for the written one. So you might want to think (I say from my high-horse) about adapting how you convert the content of the anime episodes to your story so that it reads better as a story and not like the script for a manga panel that hasn’t been drawn yet - and wow that sounded harsh, I didn’t mean to sound so mean! Apologies! Unintended meanness of my words aside I hope you still are able to see the well intended (I promise that’s how this started) constructive criticism that’s supposed to be there and that I haven’t buried it too much under my word dump.

Please write more

So totally made my heart melt! The last scene with the lightning strike and the scream fills me with soo much anticipation! I can’r wait to see what his reaction will be!

Also, I have a giant paper fan ready for use against his thick skull. His dragon has the right idea in slapping him and I look forward to said dragon figuring out how to do this. (Pls pls pls make this happen omg it would be hilarious)

Love your work and I was super happy to see the update! I immediately opened the chapter when I got the notification! Amazing as always!

(I guess it’s a good thing you find my username funny. I find it funny as well, that’s why I picked it lol) And I gotta start this with saying that I really do love how long your chapters are! It’s awesome and gives me something to read for a while.

Well it seems like I just have to keep commenting now, aye? I love the conversations between LucyLaxus (realistic enough as well, looking at their personalities and all that). And the last part? Hell yeah. Vengeful Laxus, he’s pissed now and I’m loving this. I’m curious to see how you will include him into the rest of the Arc.

again so happy to see the update.. I like how your taking the story.. at first I was anxious that there was such a misunderstanding between them.. but then that's cause I could look into what was going on in laxus's head. from a logical point of view, lucy doesn't know what he's thinking. so it makes sense that she would reject him. self-love is most important. she can't just get together with a guy who she's not sure would treat her the way she deserves to be. and I don't think laxus would treat her right if she's always putting herself second. well... no one would treat us right if we don't do it ourselves. and also this maybe necessary. only the fear of losing something will make you treasure it more or it'll make you realise whether or not you wanted it in the forst place

also laxus needs to get his head straightened out. he got rejected and the first thing he did was go look for another girl. I mean that's some mental issues right there. I mean, what if they had been in a relationship and had a fight?

and lucy doesn't need to be thinking about another person's problems too. I mean, it's true that a couple needs to support one another but not at the cost of your own mental health.

if she's constantly gonna be worried about her behaviour and whether he'd just leave her, then that's not healthy at all .

so now I understand the need for this rejection. and looking forward to seeing how laxus grows from all this.
