Pheromones, yanderes, and lemons. Oh my!

Bonus Chapter (Including Acknowlegements and an Anouncement)

A/N: This takes place between Chapters Ten and Thirteen, during the couple days that everyone else was busy translating.

Sting's POV

Things I have discovered while staying with Fairy Tail:

• Makarov spends almost all day in his pajamas.

• Dragon slayers aren't meant to be confined for any time period.

• Wendy didn't know any card or board games. We spent a fun couple hours teaching her with the games Gajeel brought. Despite not knowing how to play, she managed to kick all our asses when Rogue taught her Uno.

• Natsu takes ridiculously long hot showers.

• Makarov has an interesting book collection under his bed.

• Frosch can get lost anywhere. How did he get locked in the cabinet under the bathroom sink? No one knows.

• Gajeel actually reads books. He brought a whole pile that his girlfr- I mean partner- Levy had lent him. When we asked why, he just shrugged and said "Nuthin' else to do."

• I am a hopeless romantic. I bawled after reading a book called The Fault In Our Stars that I stole from Gajeel.

• Natsu has no concept of personal space to the point where it's actually creepy. Poor Lucy.

• Laxus can cook and is the best at keeping Natsu from eating. A mild electric shock to a part of the head makes people forget they were hungry. Who knew?

• Rogue sleepwalks. I'll admit, I suspected this one. How did he manage to climb on top of a grandfather clock without waking any of us up? No one knows.

• Gajeel knows how to style women's hair. He helped Wendy once and said it was from having to deal with his own long hair all the time. And he'll pound you if you call him a woman and ask for "beauty tips". Niiiiice, Natsu.

• Lily is an amazing swordsman, er, swordscat and trains every morning.

• Makarov has another interesting book collection under the guest bed. Luckily, we found that one before Wendy used the room.

• Gajeel, Lily, and Rogue are early birds. Lector, Frosch, Natsu, Happy, and I are nooners. Makarov, Wendy, Charla, and Laxus get up somewhere in between.

• Makarov snores. Really loudly.

• If you steal his scarf, Natsu will go nuts and run all over looking for it. Then he'll chase you all over when he finds it with your scent all over it.

• I'm more of a mother hen than I thought I was. Maybe it's just the season telling me I need to protect my group, but I felt horrible leaving them alone for a month. When I told my guild I'd be away for a little longer than planned and that they should behave, they all agreed without protest. Makarov offered to send Erza Scarlet to check on them periodically, since it was his fault I would be gone for so long. I may take him up on that.

• And finally, FAIRY TAIL IS COMPLETELY INSANE!! They're so blasé about everything. Natsu walked around for an hour in just boxers and no one even said anything, not even Wendy. Apparently, they're so used to Gray somebody or other walking around naked that they figure he's fine, he has clothes at least. And they're completely fine with spilling each other's secrets, pasts, and personal habits.
