#the whole thing with natsu and larcade and the etherious and zeref is honestly a horror story

(Major spoilers for anyone who hasn’t read/watched Fairy Tail)
(Like seriously, major)
Something that always haunts me about Fairy Tail is that Natsu isn’t really the original Natsu
Like Zeref said he brought him back to life as an Etherious
But as far as I can tell creating an Etherious seems to involve writing, in detail, what makes up that Etherious in terms of personality, in order to determine what the magic involved actually creates
Which would mean, technically, Zeref never actually resurrected anyone, he just created an approximate facsimile of his dead brother
I mean, he had like previous versions of Natsu and everything (see: Larcade) which means Zeref tried to recreate Natsu multiple times and our Natsu was just the most accurate recreation, the one close enough to Zeref’s original brother for Zeref to accept
Our Natsu is still our Natsu and always has been, but he is not, in fact, the original Natsu who died. He’s a copy of a little boy who died four hundred years ago.
Except he grew up into his own person of course
Also I wonder if some part of Zeref recognized that and that’s why he was totally okay with Natsu killing him even though that meant Natsu would die too, despite literally everything Zeref had suffered and done to bring his brother back to life
#the whole thing with natsu and larcade and the etherious and zeref is honestly a horror story#usually i ignore it bc honestly fairy tail is the good times-bad writing-nostalgia-shonen series to me#and zeref is my poor little meow meow and zervis is my tragic starcrossed romance#but jfc think about zeref and his everything too long and suddenly there’s a horror story lurking behind everything#marijn talks#fairy tail#natsu dragneel#zeref dragneel#fairy tail zeref#fairy tail natsu
