A/N: I was reading over this oneshot the other day, and I found some ways I could improve this. I also found that some of the characters (coughLaxuscough) might be a bit OOC. I would really appreciate any feedback! Particularly constructive criticism!
Disclaimer: I do not own FT or anything related to it. All right go to Hiro Mashima.
They say magic is the soul's reflection.
Laxus Dreyar pondered this, crossing his arms over his chest and leaning back against the wooden post. His eyes flickered lazily around the guild, settling to where the main area of commotion was. Not surprisingly, in the middle the disturbance was Erza Scarlet and the Demon Mira. His gaze focused on the platinum-haired girl, who was snarling insults at the former. He knew some would think Mirajane to be the perfect example of this saying. However, he thought different.
Although, she may seem like a perfect resemblance of her Demon Take-Over magic, there was a side to her that few people knew.
It showed the most when she was around her younger siblings, times when she thought no one was watching. A quiet word here, a soft smile there. She consoled her sister the time they thought that Happy's egg was lost. She patted her brother on the back, eyes gentle when he was disappointed about a failed mission. In those small, seemingly insignificant gestures, Laxus knew that Mirajane had a soft side. It might be buried below piles of cruelty, but nevertheless, it was there.
He just wished she showed it more, and more specifically, towards him.
