#lev most Definitely had a crush on jen for a while

[fairybond]

talking with the squad(tm) a while back brought up the beauty of the Levy and Jenny potential and since I have Both of them as muses, I can make them friends :') which can in turn bring some different connections for them both. here's the gist.

Levy was familiar with Jenny, as most of Fiore was, via the articles and photoshoots in Sorcerer Weekly. She always admired Jenny's looks and apparent confidence, as well as her magic (my jen's public magic is Flower magic and Levy loves flowers). They met briefly in early X784, when Shadow Gear were interviewed by the magazine and Jenny was around doing a photoshoot at the same location.

Fast forward to X791. Levy sees Jenny is older and still popular, still so beautiful. They have a brief interaction at the ball after the games, where Levy compliments Jenny's magic and Jenny says its a shame Levy didn't get to compete, as she'd like to see her in action (Levy spends a while after trying to figure out if Jenny was flirting with her, which she lowkey was).

Their next interaction came via Levy's work with the Council during the disbandment year. As part of her duties, she visits various guilds to check they're following regulations. She stopped by Blue Pegasus and happened to find Jenny working on an upgrade to the Christina. Jenny's love of machines and engineering is a well kept secret, yet Levy ended up witnessing a full nerd moment of Jenny's and there was no denying it. Levy was impressed by Jenny's magic, skill, and knowledge, and they ended up talking about what she was doing and trying to achieve. They chatted excitedly for hours and worked together on the upgrade. This started their connection and friendship.

They regularly send each other articles and books they think the other would be interested in. They meet for coffee and go shopping together sometimes (this isn't always easy, as they're both recognisable figures, particularly Jenny).

They Get each other on an intellectual level, and also have a lot of fun, as they both can have quite teasing personalities around the right people.

Following the war, a few of their catch ups became more serious, they shared some of their fears and traumas, which helped deepen their bond. they found they relate on a lot, including having spent time in orphanages, and valuing birthdays.

Jenny became aware of Levy's occasional struggles with her body image, and she has been doing her best to bolster and encourage Levy, which has been appreciated. On the other side, Levy has been encouraging Jenny to think about embracing all aspects of herself and not hide her smarts.

Due to her friendship with Jenny, Levy visits Blue Pegasus quite regularly (which means she can be easy friends with BP muses). Jenny is also mentoring/teaching Kagura in Flower magic, which Levy is very interested in, so therefore....Levy is on good terms with Kagura (and Milli by extension, as they're together a lot).

On the other side, Jenny is now quite familiar with Levy's closest friends - Jet, Droy, Lucy, Natsu, and Lisanna, along with some of Levy's council friends (this could extend to include Gajeel and Pantherlily).
