Ship: Freed / Laxus
The Duke’s Wife
On her first visit to Dreyar Manor, there were three things that Lady Mirajane Strauss was certain of.
First and foremost was the fact that her actions that day were a shameless breach of noble pleasantries that would surely prompt whispers among her family’s peers. Second, was her parents knew that it was so, they did not care – or maybe they did, but they were willing to risk it. They had willingly sent – ordered – their eldest daughter to enter the lion’s den and be devoured whole. The third and last, was that she came anyway. She was hesitant and terrified, but she was also resolute.
Her parents may have sent her for the Mad Duke, but Lady Mirajane made herself go for a chance to meet the swordsman with the beautiful long hair and deep blue eyes.
(From Lady Strauss to Duchess Dreyar – how exactly did that happen?)
Convocation
It’s a gathering of all the nobles on the Hill, and the two most anticipated guests were late.
First was Duchess Heartfilia – always the center of attention and talk of the City – she was said to be bringing the City’s finest swordsman for the night’s entertainment.
Second was an Ambassador from the Alvarez Empire – fresh from his sea voyage – and he was reported to be the younger brother of the Emperor himself.
House Dreyar
“This is Freed.” was how the Duke introduced the young man to her. “I am not fond of sharing him, but I will do so with you. Feel special yet?”
Duke Dreyar invited her to come over for a cup of afternoon tea, and then promptly left her with his secretary. And there she was – Lucy Heartfilia, all sixteen years of her noble education, good manners, social graces and prestigious upbringing already cemented into her being… and she still did not quite know how to handle the man before her.

Freed and Laxus agree to look after the guild’s latest young recruit. They insist that no. They’re not adopting the kid. OF COURSE NOT. So naturally, nobody really believes them.

Stella and Salamander
A trading ship arrives in the Kingdom of Fiore, in the capital city of Crocus.
Natsu makes his way through Magnolia, the most dangerous part of the city. He roams the cobbled stone streets to look for adventure, but instead finds himself escorting a mysterious lady interested in tales about his native land.
Sparks
Juvia came to the big city to get a spot in a prestigious dance company. But not everything goes as planned as she meets a ragtag crew of performers struggling to make ends meet, shooting for an opportunity to show the world what they have to offer.
We Are Young
They’re teenagers, they’re young and they can worry about love and life.
A collection of character and relationship-centric, interrelated stories about some students of Fairy Gakuen.
Laxus hates dealing with the guild kids. Specially his peers’ children, and their equally young friends. He’s not made to deal with lovesick rants, teenage spats, tea parties, or broken crayons.
