Aloha!
Even shorter than the others, but necessary. There are other points of the story that must be addressed. More characters need to be harrassed. Bear with me~? The more reviews I get, the quicker I update - and that's a fact, not a bribe.
In any case,
Thanks for everyone's support C:
Storybook Romance
As Erza walked down the scaly grey path, birds twittered around her and little lambs and deer came prancing from the forest. The faster she tried to run away from them, the more high-speed their actions became. A whole wagon train of merchants and performers trundled past her, and each and every one exclaimed at her beauty, offering riches and blessings for her future. Marriage proposals were thrown every which way, and while flattered, her head growing as large as the dragonfire sun, Erza was still kind of nonplussed.
"A lift to the castle might be nice," she said, much to surrounding favour. It was funny, the people on board the wagons were attractive; well-built, tall, with fair faces, but she could barely recall what they looked like once she turned away.
"You're just meant to walk past them!" Levy said when Erza asked. "They're not important. They're just fillers that are meant to show you're beautiful."
"I see. So that is the nature of my character..."
"You may not use them to take you to the castle. You are Snow Erza; humble and kind and hard-worked. You have to walk until your shoes are full of holes, because that's the kind of person you are."
"I don't want to," Erza scowled, reaching for the hand of a wagon boy, she came to sit beside him. But then, with a sudden and inexplicable change of heart, Erza jumped straight off and kept walking.
-:
SNOW ERZA DECIDES SHE DOESN'T WANT TO RIDE IN THE CARTS BECAUSE SHE DOES NOT WANT TO INCONVENIENCE ANYONE. SHE GETS OFF AND KEEPS WALKING. SHE DECIDES THAT SHE JUST LOVES WALKING, AND THAT SHE WILL WALK EVERYWHERE. FOREVER.

Levy put her pen down with a huff, pleased to see that Erza was doing exactly as was written; trailing the cobblestone street with a whole array of fluffy animals at her heels. Oh, the benefits of being an author!
Since it would take Erza a while to reach the castle, and Levy was in no mind to just quickly write her way there, she decided on heading to the bar for a drink. Mirajane greeted her warmly, and asked with a smile where Jellal and Erza had gotten to on such a sunny day. "A job? A date? Something better?" she pressed. "I remember seeing them sitting where you were just a minute ago."
"They went on a holiday, I think," Levy said, knowing that if she told someone they wouldn't leave her in peace with her story. "Very sudden. Very private. I don't know?"
Mirajane sighed, and made a vague look in the direction of an all-male drinking game that was going down. "Must be nice," she frowned. "What's your poison?"
"Ehm... Juice. Please," Levy replied, feeling decidedly unimpressive. Mirajane smiled in a way that was almost judgemental, and wandered off to the back fridge to retrieve it.
Closing her eyes, Levy began to think about who could possibly play the evil Queen in her story, and as a result, didn't notice two people sneak up behind her.
One raised their arms, ready to attack, and...!
