Summary
Three days on the mission from hell, undercover at Lord Ashworth's gaudy estate. Lucy disappears behind the Heartfilia mask and runs the mission like she was born to it - because, technically, she was. She's poised, polished, brilliant, taking care of everyone and everything while no one takes care of her. Natsu is forced to watch with an aching jaw as the woman he loves performs a version of herself that doesn't belong to her and he's unable to do a damn thing about it.
When the job ends, Lucy copes by being *herself* - and by taking Natsu apart with a full day of targeted, devastatingly effective teasing with an expert poker face. She expects him to give in to the passion the way he usually does, and let her have what she wants without asking for it.
But he's seen the pattern now. The way she can push but can't ask. The way she takes care of everyone but won't let anyone reach her. The way wanting things openly is the one fight she's never let herself win.
So when she smirks and says 'whatcha gonna do about it', he doesn't break this time. He takes her home, and for once in her life, Lucy Heartfilia doesn't get to run the board.Bookmarked by BG1059

Summary
Princess Lucy, raised to follow royal protocol with expectations already laid out for her, changes her mind about all of it when her father introduces her to his friend and lord's son on one eventful night, whose magic just happened to be descended from an extinct race of dragons.
Unbeknownst to either of them, they, along with several others, become the victims of a plot to sow paranoia and corruption within the kingdom. As Natsu later fights to free Lucy from captivity and her upcoming wedding, even facing off against the fearsome Scarlet Knight to do so, he later comes to learn that Lucy was never the real target of her would-be husband and future king at all.Series

Summary
Over 3 years after Alvarez, Romeo, the young fire wizard who'd been totally raised in guild life, kept the spirit of the guild alive during the dark period when the strongest mages were stuck on tenrou, and had always been everyone's little brother, is now 19 and needs advice going into a date with a girl he’d been seeing for a couple months now (Selene) who has indicated she really wants to go all the way, and some well-meaning guild members are trying to give advice. It's going badly. Really badly.
Until its not.
Turns out Natsu is pretty damn good at this stuff. Who knew? (Lucy did. And also Loke, but he's much more of a little shit about it)Bookmarked by BG1059
