meta + Jenny + other women

send a meta topic // always accepting

In canon, Jenny has few interactions with other women (that i can remember) and it seems to paint her as the type that would have rivalry with them. With Mira, this is particularly understandable as they were models at the same time and both doing their best to promote their own guilds and whatnot (plus i have some other hcs about their dynamic that i need to work through).

In canon, Jenny aims to humiliate Mira twice (once with the bet and then at the water park by stealing her bikini top). I have opted to tweak the bet and remove the water park incident. Another notable interaction is a brief glimpse of her and Evergreen at Blue Pegasus, where the two seem to be squabbling and making digs at each other. Obviously that's not something I see for your particular portrayal or my Jenny.

I can definitely acknowledge that there are circumstances and factors that would lead to Jenny having difficulties with other women. She was/is in the modelling business where looks and popularity are Everything, and this can bring out great insecurity and a need to best everyone. It's not a good environment, and (my) Jenny does struggle with a level of insecurity at times as she grew up feeling unwanted.

(My) Jenny also admired Karen when she was younger, and we all know what a toxic person she was.

The key reason why my girl has not become a terrible women-hating lady is Master Bob. After Karen died and he started to see Jenny's attempts to emulate her, he talked sense into her and encouraged her to be herself. As she ventured into the modelling industry, he also took care to ensure she would not get consumed by it and the vanity of it all, he is a responsible guildmaster and looked out for her. Hibiki is also an important influence on her, as he is someone who has always accepted and valued her for who she is.

Adding to that, while her friendly rivalry was with Mira at the time and she could feel herself falling into bad habits, it was Mira's 7 year disappearance that also caused a shift in her - she could have been pleased that her rival had disappeared, leaving the top spot to her alone, but it was tragic and something that made Jenny value the time that she had.

Along with Bob and Hibiki, Evie has also guided Jenny at times, having gotten to know her through Bob and the bond between their guilds. Evie was an excellent role model for Jenny and always encouraged her to support other women.

I'm not going to say Jenny doesn't struggle at times, and that her competitive streak doesn't rear its head sometimes, but she is overall healthy when it comes to other women. She understands from her own experiences too, that sometimes women get treated unfairly or inappropriately, so she is quick to step in when she can and be on the woman's side.

In terms of female friendships, she has a few within her guild, and outside of the guild, she has developed bonds with Levy, Lucy, Kagura, Millianna. She still has a bit of an odd dynamic with Mira in my mind, but there is a respect and friendship there. I also do like to imagine she and Evergreen got along well while Evergreen was in Blue Pegasus, and I've always loved the idea that she and Sherry became good friends too.

Also, while i haven't gotten into depth on it anywhere, Jenny can and will flirt with women at times, and can certainly appreciate a good looking lady. Let jenny have a gf

top 5 ocs that you love 💛

ok i'm going to cheat a lil bit here and do top five lunakit ocs + a top five non-lunakit ocs bc it's unfair to my other wonderful ocs otherwise.

top five lunakit ocs

5. eden blaisdell i honestly think eden is one of the most detail rich ocs i've ever made, i don't know if that makes sense. she just feels so fully realised to me, and there's so much that i love about her. i feel like i know her inside and out and could probably ramble out her for hours. i love my marvel stanning, anime binging, perfectionist, former cult baby.

4. owen pearce the way he has been in my life for so long but has grown so much. there's a reason i brought him into lunakit, i just couldn't let go of him i guess. i make fun of him but i love that he acts old for his age. i admire his thirst for knowledge and his big heart. he's such a hardworker, maybe to a fault and him and henry are very sweet.

3. emilio galante another oc who has been with me for a long time and another that i guess i just couldn't let go of. he's been through so much (i know it's my fault, i love to hurt my child, i'm sorry) and i want to hug him. but he has such a sunny disposition and is so warm and loving. i also love that he's 6'5 bc i just kept upping his height.

2. finley casson unexpectedly (mostly) in second place is finley. he's such a fucking moron and i hate him so much but i also adore him, you know? he's obnoxious and full of himself but just in a really comedic way. he has major dad energy and just makes me laugh because he's so ridiculous. he just developed a mind of his own, idk.

1. tabitha 'tabby' moon my girl!! my original lunakit oc and my favourite!!! i don't know if i can explain why i love her so much? but she has grown and developed and i just have such a special place in my heart for her. i feel like i know her inside and out and, even when she doesn't like herself very much, i love her. plus, tabby and marcus lee were the first ship kit and i made together and they remain the favourite.

top five misc ocs

5. levi yun (apartmentverse) when lark and lucy visited the apartmentverse gang and bullied levi, i felt that. deserved. no elaboration needed.

4. casper nahm (smalltownverse) maybe it's his relationship with lottie that really pushed him into favourite status. i don't know but i hate him and love him at the same time. you have to admire his determined nature. and he's just really fun?? such a cocky bastard with a heart of gold. a favourite character type of mine (see above: finley).

3. evie moon (hssverse) am i cheating here? yes. do i care? no. evie really took on a whole new life when i made her my character in high school story. she really developed in hssverse and i've loved seeing her grow, you know? dna and her friends really just help her gain confidence so much. she's just so cute and i love developing her.

2. lilia chu (lunadaisy) this surprised me but i genuinely love lilia so much, and more than i expected to. she's just an absolute wild ride of a character. i admire her confidence so much and how she just grabs life by the balls and goes for it. she's just a really fun oc and i love her friendship with hannah and margot. she's so proud of hannah's glow up omg.

1. yerim ryu (idolverse) i mean, obviously. my first oc created on tumblr. maknae of the iconic gg kaleidoscope. she's annoying as fuck but she's also just really complex and idk, i'm proud of her?? she has so much growing to do bc she's a giant baby but she's getting there little by little and i love her relationships with her members.

ask me my top five anything !!

Characters: Jacob Frye x reader, Evie Frye

Tagging @geekgoddess813​ @sweet-flash​ @swiggle-muffin​ @thank-god-its-fryeday​

You woke up with a start when you felt something heavy drop down beside you on the sofa, looking around quickly to see Jacob grinning at you.

“Did you know that you snore? I heard you even through the noise of the train.”

Rubbing your eyes and yawning, you slapped him on the leg when he poked you in your side and started laughing at you.

“I do not snore, I know I don’t. You do however. What time is it?”

“A bit before ten, still early.”

Snuggling down into his chest when he wrapped his arm around you, you tried to stifle another yawn, wondering what he meant by ‘still early’.

“Mmmm, you’re comfortable. Oh, I met one of your admirers earlier.”

“Really? You’ll have to be a bit more specific, I have lots of them.”

Looking up and scowling at him when you could feel his chest vibrating with the chuckle he was trying to suppress, you yelped when he slid his cold hands under your arms and pulled you to straddling on top of him, his hands rubbing down your thighs suggestively.

“Well this one was Mary, one of your Rooks. She seemed quite infatuated with you.”

“Mary? Yeah I know her, what did she say?”

Seeing the cheeky glint in his eye, you decided to play along with his little game, trying to ignore that his thumb was now circling closer to in between your legs.

“Well. Firstly she said you were rediculously attractive…”

Jacob raised his eyebrow as you brought your hand up and plucked open the top button of his shirt, grazing your nails over the newly exposed skin that made him shudder.

“Well, that’s true. What else?”

“And you were strong….”

Grinding your hips hard against him and pulling open another button, you leaned forwards and trailed little pecks across his jawline, smiling as his grip tightened on your legs.

“And charming…..” you whispered, your voice low and dripping with desire.

“Also true.”

Sitting back slightly to see that he was seconds away from ripping off your clothes and taking you right there, given the look on his face, you moved in to kiss him, but instead grabbed the front of his hat and yanked it down, covering his eyes and giggling to yourself.

“And a bloody smug bastard!”

Jumping up quickly when his hands moved from your legs so he could pull up his hat, your mouth dropped and you took a step back when he looked up at you with the most devious grin.

“Why you little…. Im gonna get you for that.”

Squealing when he lept up from the sofa and wrapped his arms around your waist before you even had a chance to move, you laughed and tried to wiggle free when his mouth descended on your neck, biting and sucking that was sure to leave a string of bruises.

“Ahem. Sorry to break this up, but we have work to do. You two really should think about getting a room.”

Jacob let out an exasperated sigh and mumbled something against your shoulder when you turned your now flustered head to face Evie, who was busy hiding her gaze in paperwork strewn across the desk. Attempting to move away when his hands loosened around your waist, your eyebrows raised when he turned you around and pulled your back up firmly agaist his chest, suddenly realising why he kept you there when he pushed the hard bulge in his trousers up against your leg.

“What’s than then Evie? Another exciting night in trying to get a lead on that curio?”

You pursed your lips so you wouldn’t laugh when Evie glared at Jacob, noticing she was in a particularly foul mood.

“Just on my way out actually dear brother. Lucy Thorne is expecting a shipment tonight, and I’m almost certain that it contains a piece of Eden that Sir David Brewster mentioned.”

Glancing over a document that Evie gave to you to pass to Jacob, you recognised the portrait of the woman immediately, remembering that Henry had said that she was extremely dangerous.

“Is there anything I can do to help?”

“You aren’t an assassin (name), do you believe you’re up for the task?”

Looking at the picture again, you nodded and handed her back the sheet, resolving to prove that you were more than just a thief, who was currently leeching a place to stay off of her.

“Come on Evie, another pair of eyes would be useful, and it sounds like fun.”

“Fine. Just promise me you’ll stick to the mission.”

Jacob, finally able to step back from you, grinned at his sibling and trailed his finger over his chest in the shape of a cross.

“I swear.”

He held you back as you went to jump off the train, smirking against your cheek and trailing his fingers down your sides.

“Don’t you think for one second that you’ve gotten away with this, I’m still going to get you back. And by the way, I have absolutely no idea who Mary is.”

Grabbing his arm and pulling him down the carriage before Evie started yelling, you turned to face him for a moment and gave him a sly wink.

“I know.”

Perching yourself on the roof of the factory next to Evie, your eyes widened when you saw at least two dozen blighters and Templars down below, guarding a cart that was being loaded up with a large crate.

“Whatever Thorne’s after, its in that chest.”

“There are gunmen on the roof.” Jacob grumbled as he crouched down next to you, making his boredom more than apparent.

“Think you can dispose of them before I get to the cart?”

You raised your eyebrows at his jaded attitude as he jumped up and sniggered at Evie, fiddling with his bracer for a second before getting ready to jump off the roof.

“I was hoping for a challenge.”

Watching him shoot out his grappling hook and traverse to where the first sniper was, you turned to Evie and waited for instructions, who was staring out into the yard attentively.

“You can go down to the right (name), and eliminate the three solitary guards before they can alert anyone else.”

The panic stricken look on your face must have been apparent as she frowned at you for a moment, then shook her head as she sighed.

“Look, if it’s too much for you to handle…”

“No!” You blurted out, cutting her off mid sentence, more determined now than ever to prove your worth.

“I can do it, you can trust me.”

Descending down the side of the building when she nodded at you, you quickly ran behind a stack of containers, knowing that time was not on your side. Peeking around the corner and spotting the first watchman, you took a deep breath to try and slow your furiously beating heart and pulled out your dagger, creeping as quietly as you could up behind him. You’ve done this once, you can do it again… Before you lost your nerve, you raised your blade as high as you could and plunged it straight into his neck, wincing at the strangled gargle that left his mouth as he dropped to the floor.

Looking up to see Evie about to jump off the roof, you hastily made your way to the next guard; a woman this time, and repeated your actions in the exact same way, the uneasy feeling in the pit of your gut dissipating quickly. Skidding to a halt when you approached the location of the third, your eyes widened when you saw it was a gigantic man, easily the biggest person you had seen in your entire life.

Knowing you would have to use a different tact for this one, more for the fact that there was not much chance of you actually being able to reach to stab him in his neck, you took a few steps back and flipped your dagger so you were holding it backhanded. Running up as fast as you could, you lept onto the huge Templars back and slid your blade across his throat, landing on him as he fell forwards, at the exact same time as Evie sped by.

Retreating back slightly beside the building so you didn’t get spotted, you peered around the corner and breathed a sigh of relief when you saw Evie jump into the cart. You immediately paralysed with fear when you felt an arm wrap around your front and a hand cover your mouth, then cursed loudly against the leather clad fingers when you turned your head, to see Jacob smirk at you before dropping his gaze to the body on the floor.

“What was that? Nicely done by the way, woman after my own heart.”

Pulling his hand from over your face, you poked him in the ribs and glared at him, shaking your head softly when he grinned at you sheepishly.

“I said, you bastard, you scared the life out of me!”

“Hmm, sorry about that, didn’t want you yelling out and letting everyone know we’re here. I know how you like to make noises.”

Only just managing to stick your tongue out at him before he grabbed your arm and pulled you into the street, you poked your head over the side of the cart at the same time as Jacob, to see Evie open the chest to reveal a book and a mound of documents.

“Did you find it?” Jacob asked quickly, slightly fretting as several Templars burst out of a nearby door.

“There he is, get him!” One of the gang members shouted as they ran towards your position.

“What did you do?!”

Jumping into the cart beside Evie when Jacob climbed into the drivers seat, you slammed the crate shut to stop the papers from flying away as you sped down the street.

“Now’s hardly the time for questions. How many are chasing us?”

“Too many! Would you drive more carefully, you’re endangering the documents!” Yelled Evie, who was mentally counting your persuers and grimacing.

Shaking your head as Evie handed you a gun, you grinned as you pulled out several throwing knives out of your coat, thankful that you had the foresight to come well prepared.

“Oh, poor documents! Would you rather I stop right here?” Jacob shouted over his shoulder and winked at you, obviously enjoying this persuit far more that any sane person would.

Climbing over the side of the carriage to carefully balance on the passenger seat, you nudged Jacob in the arm with your leg to get his attention.

“Let them get closer!”

“What?! Are you mad woman?!”

Smirking when one of the chasing carriages pulled a few feet away from the side of you, you hurled a knife straight at the driver, landing it square in his chest. Watching him veer off and crash into a lamp post, you shrugged your shoulders when both Evie and Jacob stared at you in amazement.

“Errm, wouldn’t it be wise to keep your eyes on the road?” You chided as you dropped down to your knees to hold on to the side for dear life, when Jacob just managed to swerve out of the way of a group of people.

Standing back up when you saw several more carriages full of Templars speed your way, you spun another blade in your hand, ready to aim again.

“Be a dear and hold onto me if you plan on making another move like that.”

Looking around furiously when you eventually ran out of daggers, you noticed that the gang members were becoming relentless in their pursuit, more and more appearing faster than you could take them down. Jumping into the back of the carriage next to Evie, you frowned as she held up her gun, showing you that she was also out of ammunition.

“Jacob, we’re out, and they’re still coming!”

“Then we’ve gotta jump!”

Crashing to the floor when he took another hard turn, you managed to clamber up just as he ground the cart to a halt, your eyes widening when he jumped out and headed towards the train bridge.

“What about the chest?!” Evie called out from just behind you.

“If you want to carry it, be my guest!”

Climbing up the wall and balancing on the edge next to Jacob, you jumped down just as the train passed under, only just managing to hold on with the force of the speed it was going. Scrambling back up and brushing yourself off, you couldn’t help but laugh when Jacob waved to the Templars that were leaning over the side of the bridge, before stepping back to weave his arm around you.

“Well that was fun, must do it again sometime dear sister.”

You felt slightly sorry for Evie when you followed him to the end of the train, wishing there were more you could have done to help as you lept off the end, landing cleanly next to a slightly baffled Jacob. Walking down the tracks for a moment until you came to a part of the wall you could climb, you dug your feet in between the broken bricks and hoisted yourself up, cocking your head to one side when Jacob followed you up with the same mysterious expression.

“Go on, I’ll bite. What are you thinking? Or do I have something on my face?”

“Hmm? No, you don’t have anything on your face.”

Linking your arm through his and slowly walking down the street along the tracks, you didn’t bother asking again, leaving him in his own little world while you wondered which direction to head in. Stumbling forward when he suddenly stopped in the middle of the street, you yelped as he pulled you into his arms and squeezed you tightly.

“Okay, now you’re starting to worry me.”

Leaning yourself back so you could look up at him, a soft smile crept up your face when you saw he was gazing down at you warmly.

“You worry too much. I’m just amazed, and trust me, that doesn’t happen very often. A few weeks ago you were struggling to keep up with me, now here you are, killing Templars and flinging daggers through the air.”

“What, you really though I’d just sit about moping on the train, waiting for the great Jacob Frye to return? I have been out practicing.”

Letting him pull you towards the the kerb when a carriage came trundling down the road, you took the opportunity to slide your hands under his coat, sighing as his warmth instantly began to thaw out your cold fingers.

“Well, yes I did actually. You’ve been doing all of this, to be with me?”

Now it was your turn to be surprised, as you fully expected for him to have his usual smug grin on his face. But if he was hiding it, he was doing it well.

“I suppose. For myself as well of course, I did say I wanted to help in any way I could..”

Before you even had a chance to finish, Jacob held you even more firmly against him, kissing you so hard that you were sure you could taste a faint bite of copper from where you bit your lip from his sudden movement. Pulling back slightly so you could catch your breath, your stomach tied in knots as his eyes flickered over you tenderly.

“Mister Frye, are you getting all romantic on me?”

Jacob cleared his throat and loosened his grip around you, his usual playful demeanor creeping back quickly.

“Me? Romantic? Not at all.”

You unintentionally frowned as you stepped away and pulled your coat straight, turning around and taking a few steps back towards the street, trying to remember where the hideout would be this time of night.

“No? That’s a shame.”

A shriek caught in your throat when Jacob suddenly appeared in front of you, ducking down and picking you up, throwing you over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. You hammered your fists against his back when he started walking across the road with you slung over him, but quickly stopped and went limp when he chuckled and slapped your rear, just hard enough for it to sting slightly.

“What are you doing? Jacob Frye, put me down this instant!”

Straining your neck to look up as he just ignored you and carried on down the street, your eyes widened when you saw he was heading towards a carriage, with one of his Rooks in the drivers seat. Shaking yourself about when Jacob pulled open the door and dropped you down on the floor, the blood that had rushed to your head making you quite dizzy, you just sat there dumbfounded for a moment while he said something to the driver and then climbed in, sitting down on the floor beside you.

“Where are we going?” you asked hesitantly as you draped your arms over his shoulders when he pulled you into his lap, winding his arms around your waist.

“To your shop. The trains not gonna cut it tonight, I want a bed.”

“What? We can’t go there, what about all the police that have been parading about?”

Holding onto him tighter as he snaked his arm under your legs, somehow managing to slide himself up against the seat and sit on it with you still in his lap, you raised your eyebrows when he just stared out of the window thoughtfully.

“Doubt there’s going to be anyone there this time of night, and if there is, I’ll sort it.”

You spent the rest of the journey in silence, which thankfully wasn’t long, as you were becoming slightly nervous at the trouble that you might cause by breaking into your shop again. Sliding off his legs and onto the seat when the carriage ground to a halt, you sat where you were when he gestured for you to stay put, peeking out the window for a moment then slumping back down when he disappeared from view.

Drumming your fingers on the cushion impatiently, you jumped as the door to the carriage suddenly burst open, revealing the Rook who had been driving the carriage.

“Come on love, out ya get.”

Clambering out and sauntering towards the back of your store, you were so distracted in wondering why the Rook was grinning, that you didn’t notice the two unconscious policemen on the floor until you stumbled over them. Bursting out laughing when you saw that they were tied up with their own belts, you carried on down the side street, to where Jacob was busy picking the lock to your door.

“Was that really necessary?”

Giggling again when Jacob just grinned and shrugged his shoulders, you followed him into your shop when he finally managed to unlock the door, kicking it shut behind you.
