Summary: Happy and Lily get a new addition to their fashion choices….
Pairings: Implied Happy/Asuka/Lily friendship, implied Levy/Gajeel, and implied Lucy/Natsu.
YouTube Prompt: A tribute to all of our lovely Exceed characters to the song 'Everybody Wants to be a Cat' (because why hasn't it been done yet?!)
"Oh my God…"
"It's terrible…"
"Why?"
"I don't know but this is last time we're letting them go on a mission together."
"Agreed."
Lucy and Levy looked horrified. They had never seen their men ever agree on anything, not even when Gajeel and Natsu worked together like the time they battled against Laxus did they agree on how to do it. They were always fighting. They were always bickering. So to see them getting along was terrifying. Pigs must be flying without the aid of magic, the sky must now naturally be as pink as Natsu's hair, and the world was definitely ending.
"I don't see what the big fuss is," Lily blinked, "I think they look marvellous."
"Aye sir!" Happy agreed cheerfully.
"In fact I think I might get another pair."
"Aye sir!"
"I definitely wouldn't mind going on another mission with Asuka-Chan again, either."
"Aye sir!"
Lucy tried not to laugh at the looks on Gajeel and Natsu's face, it looked like they were suffering a severe round of motion sickness. They were all blue, wide-eyed, and gagging, and she couldn't help but find it hilarious.
(Natsu always said she was weird.)
Asuka went on her first proper mission away from Magnolia earlier that week on the condition that she picked two adults to accompany her on her team. She, in true Fairy Tail fashion, got round the ruling by picking Lily and Happy to go with her. They had already spent their reward money on the way home much to Gajeel and Natsu's mortification on a new fashion choice.
There Lily and Happy stood showing off their beautiful, brand new, shiny cowboy boots. Red cowboy boots.
"We look like cowboy cats!" Happy cheered.
"Yeah," Gajeel grumbled, "Gay cowboy cats."
