mostly for my own mobile convenience, i'm gonna make posts for each muse linking all my individual hc posts (this is separate from a Portrayal Notes masterpost) and update my 'headcanon page' links to go to the hc masterposts instead of having a Page on the actual blog for hcs. this is because the Page link only works on desktop/ outside the app i think (which is Annoying), and i need to update all the hc links anyway to dash-view ones bc i keep getting an annoying 'rate limit exceeded' issue when trying to go on Actual Blogs while on desktop

Evie is in her 50s so... She is old enough to be the mother of some muses, so like...AU where she was a close friend of your muses parent/s and (when the inevitable tragic backstory kicks in) she took in your muse and is their godmother /aunt figure 🥺 Or she just knew the parents well and has been keeping an eye on the kid

❛ sometimes i wonder if you're in love with me. ❜ - Jenny, on a dramatic sigh (she's absolutely joking)

⚡︎ &. rivals (to lovers?) ⚡︎ - @varietales

There was a brief second where he just stared at her, making sure it was -- okay, yes, it was her typical joking. That earned her a light glare, but neither one of them had any concern over it by now -- she'd been ribbing him like this practically since he'd joined the guild, and he'd very quickly learned she did it specifically for his reaction.

Well, maybe two could play at that game. He was getting a bit tired of getting embarrassed with no payback.

Some time later, the two ended up heading to one of the supply rooms to grab a few things (client requests often had them doing that -- Laxus moreso than most, as it got him a chance to leave for a moment), and as was her habit Jenny had turned to smirk at him over her shoulder.

"Don't get your hopes up, handsome. We're just headed the same way."

Laxus rolled his eyes, as was his usual, and did nothing out of the ordinary until he was sure the room was otherwise unoccupied (and the door had closed behind him). He waited until she had turned to request his help with the higher shelf (because of course she would, it was yet another way she had been messing with him recently), a hand resting on her shoulder and pushing her back, firm but not rough, until she was against the wall.

He wasn't necessarily inexperienced, with the idea of flirting -- he'd done so years ago, before he'd ruined everything started the ill-fated Battle of Fairy Tail, and quite often at that. But there was a difference in doing so for a hookup with a stranger he'd never see again and...whatever this was. But, he'd already gone most of the way -- he wouldn't back out of it now.

"Careful," he kept his voice low, almost a growl to match the way he showed off his fangs. "Don't wanna give anyone the wrong idea."

Would he get hit by immediate regret as soon as he walked out of that room? Yes. Was it worth it to see Jenny's expression? ...maybe.

Kagura:

●○○○○ | ATTRACTION ●○○○○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●○○ | LOYALTY ●●●○○ | TRUST

She doesn't know him at all really, but most FT mages have a degree of loyalty/trust from her due to the war where they had to fight together. She is very interested in his magic, being a born lightning user herself.

Jenny:

●●●●○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●○ | AFFECTION ●●●●● | INTEREST ●●●●● | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

During his time in BP, she got to know him more (even if they didn't spend a lot of time together, she watched/heard him with others), finding his personality and manner very amusing. She knows he has a good heart underneath all that grumbling.

Millianna:

●●●●○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●○ | AFFECTION ●●●●● | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

What we've talked about for their meeting/dynamic comes into play here, the thunderstorm that scares the crap out of her and him doing what he can for it. It's something that would earn her loyalty and trust. Her affection springs from that too, and in feeling a sort of kinship with him, which is also where the Interest comes in. She tends to feel a connection with dragon slayers or anyone with animal like traits. The attraction factor is also more so about being drawn to him for perceived similarities (and the fact he is Very Tall) rather than outright attraction.

Evie:

●○○○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●● | AFFECTION ●●●●● | INTEREST ●●●●● | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

She is very proud of the man he has become (esp in guildmaster!laxus verse).

Bisca:

●●○○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●● | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

It's taken a while, but she's warmed up to him a lot, and through his interactions with Asuka particularly, she has found herself trusting him and getting to know him a bit better. It has made her care about him a lot more and want to look out for him in her own way.

Kagura:

●●○○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●○○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●● | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

Kagura is not an easy person to get close to but she is warming up to Erza and wants to make an effort with her. Having fought alongside her, and knowing what kind of person she truly is, Kagura has quite a strong belief and trust in her now

Jenny:

●●●○○ | ATTRACTION ●●○○○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●○ | TRUST

While she doesn't know her all that well, she has a lot of respect for her. Erza is beautiful, and if there wasn't such an age gap, the whole Lady Knight aesthetic would definitely interest her, at least for a while

Millianna:

●●○○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●● | AFFECTION ●●●●● | INTEREST ●●●●● | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

They've had a complicated history together but Milli has always looked up to and adored Erza, viewing her as family.

Evie:

●○○○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●○ | TRUST

She has known (of) Erza for a long time and has watched her grow from a distance. As with many of the young mages in FT, Evie was concerned for the environment the girl was growing up in and, as such, has a soft spot for her.

Bisca:

●●●●○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●● | AFFECTION ●●●●● | INTEREST ●●●●● | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

Almost from their first meeting, Erza has held Bisca's interest and loyalty. Upon joining FT and their friendship developing, the affection and trust followed suit. Erza going missing for those 7 years was devastating for Bisca.

meta: love // for jenny

send a meta topic // always accepting

Growing up, love was something she craved. She longed to be wanted, to be chosen. As one of many kids in the orphanage, she was always hoping to be picked and taken in by a loving family. She tried many different personas in her attempt to be chosen, however it was all for naught and she remained there until she was about 15. Still, the craving never went away.

In the next couple of years, she ended up joining Blue Pegasus and finding acceptance there. However, fame and popularity, along with being in a guild that has a glamour about it (where there is much more going on beneath the surface than anyone knows), did push her to hide certain aspects of herself in order to become more…marketable, more palatable to the public. And, while she knows key people in her life know her and care for her true self, it’s something that is high in her mind and creates uncertainty at times.

The fame especially makes it difficult to trust the interest and apparent love of others, as she feels she’s only wanted as a trophy of sorts or as a way to get closer to others. She’s no stranger to the fickle nature of the public and their interests either. She learnt early on that she had to be careful about any sort of relationship she might have, as it would influence her popularity and potentially even that of her guild. Even with taking great care, with being choosey with who she associated with, she knew there were certain people, certain magazines, that would publish whatever they wanted to anyway.

Due to her guarded approach and her awareness of all the things that could go wrong, she is not the type to easily give her heart away (as much as she wants to and still craves it). The moment she starts to feel something a little too deeply, she finds a way to pull back and end the connection. The number of serious relationships she’s had is very limited due to that fact (not to mention that she once ignored her better judgement in the past and began to develop feelings for someone, only to find their own intentions were questionable to say the least).

Still, she is a romantic at heart, when it comes to others anyway, and as much as she can be cynical about her own love life and chances, she is generally supportive of others. That being said, those that are closest to her might find that her advice to them becomes a little pessimistic (as opposed to those she’s not as close with, that she gives much more positive opinions to), as she secretly fears they’re getting their hopes up and that they will get hurt and she wants them to avoid such a fate (she is most definitely projecting).

With the people she loves, platonically or otherwise, she is generous and affectionate. As she has trouble trusting (herself and others) and in expressing through words, the words ‘I love you’ would take a long time to come, but her feelings come through in other ways, namely touch and thoughtful gifts/acts of service.

Jenny:

●●●●● | ATTRACTION ●●●○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●● | AFFECTION ●●●●● | INTEREST ●●●●● | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

in which Jenny tries not to think about how attractive her bestie is. She absolutely Adores him, he Gets her, he supports her, he is endlessly interesting to her, funny, charming, thoughtful, and has known her for a very long time now. There are very few people she trusts as much as him. he is Top Tier and we're taking no questions on the matter.

Kagura:

●●○○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●○○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●○ | TRUST

Her dealings with him come mostly via her visits with Jenny. Due to Jenny's high opinion of him, Kagura has warmed to him more than she might ordinarily have done. She appreciates that he respects her personal space (he is a Gentleman after all) and he always seems kind. His magic also interests her a lot.

Millianna:

●●●●○ | ATTRACTION ●●●○○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●○ | TRUST

milli, holding up hibiki: i just think he's neat i imagine that, again via Kagura/Jenny friendship, Milli interacts with him more. He never makes her feel Dumb, which is something she appreciates

Evie:

●●●○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●○ | TRUST

she's not looking at him like That (she's old enough to be his mother, so there is no interest there) but he is very easy on the eyes, no one can deny that. Via her friendship with Bob and the bond between their guilds, I feel she has gotten to know him quite well and is very fond of him.

Bisca:

●●●●○ | ATTRACTION ●●●○○ | AFFECTION ●●●○○ | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●○ | TRUST

During the 7 lost years, BP remained supportive of the remaining FT members and I imagine this led her and Hibiki to have more interactions and the chance for her affection/loyalty/trust to grow more than it would have otherwise. And okay she used to vote for him in the 'mage i'd like to be my boyfriend' poll many years ago.

♫ ❚❙❘ She nodding along. What she had said wasn't true about just music, but all hobbies, something she had forgotten about lately. Olexa found her attention shifted to her experiments, but she found herself thinking about how she should find the time to work on music without it needing to be associated with a spell. Maybe when she is home she should... there was a guilt floating around now that the conversation had happening.

     The new question caught her by surprise. ❝Lo-lotus Town?❞ Of course she had heard of it, of course she had. Even without knowing who Evie is, everyone knew one of the countries top guilds. She had just never had the chance to travel that far yet. After all any jobs around there would be taken by its own mages.

     ❝Wo-would that be al-alright? I'm from a-a different guild.❞ Fairy Tail welcomed guests all the time, but they were unique when it came to what was allowed.

[varietales]

She folded her arms delicately across her chest, smile still present upon her lips. “Of course, my dear, it’s more than alright,” she assured her, eyes warming with amusement, she gave a quick wink, “I’m the guildmaster after all, and I say you’re welcome in our hall.”

Evie didn’t make a habit of seriously trying to poach mages from other guilds, yet she did believe it was important for mages to experience other guilds, to see how things might work differently there, and perhaps gain a new appreciation or new friends. Encouraging her own mages to team up with those of other guilds, or even simply inviting them to visit, had gone a long way in establishing better bonds between guilds in the past. In Olexa’s case, a visit to Mermaid Heel could be much more than about mage work however.

“I have a variety of lovely instruments you might be interested in. I’d love to hear you play sometime. Perhaps we could even do a duet?” The idea brought a spark of excitement to her eyes, but she tempered it with a reassuring smile, “No pressure, of course.”

not me just now realising they're about the same age. Even before Ivan became a guildmaster in his own right, she was familiar with him (and sympathised with the fact that the guy had Makarov as a father). Ivan has always been interesting, intelligent. They share many similar interests and opinions (and experiences, both having lost their spouses) and tend to align on things during guildmaster meetings, so he is someone she is fond of and finds interesting.

[varietales]

"Kagura." Ivan's voice was calm, masking his excitement. He had ordered this two months ago, but it just arrived today. "I have a gift for you." There was no special occasion, Ivan saw it and thought of her. The bag was on the smaller size, a purple color with white accents. Inside of it was a beautiful pink silk ribbon, decorated with flowers — imported directly from Sin. "I hope you enjoy it."

She lifted her head, pulling her golden gaze from the book before her and directing it to her father. Intrigue lit the young girl’s eyes, a smile forming as she got to her feet and moved closer to him. At the sight of the bag, a small gasp left her, and she took the gift with gentle hands. Her adoring fingers skimmed the material, smile only growing as she did so.

“It’s so pretty…”

Opening the bag, her eyes widened momentarily at the sight of the ribbon. Reverently, she withdrew it from the confines, excitement quite literally sparking from her as her magic created a show of static around her. She traced the flowers on the ribbon, then turned her eyes up.

“Thank you!” she said earnestly, then held the ribbon up, “Can you put it in my hair please, dad?”

Kagura:

●○○○○ | ATTRACTION ●○○○○ | AFFECTION ●●●○○ | INTEREST ●●●○○ | LOYALTY ●●●○○ | TRUST

She doesn't know her very well, but she knows she is a good friend of Erza's, and she respects her as a mage.

Jenny:

●●●○○ | ATTRACTION ●●○○○ | AFFECTION ●●●○○ | INTEREST ●●●○○ | LOYALTY ●●●○○ | TRUST

She hasn't spent much time around her, but she would want to. Cana is very pretty and seems like fun, as well as being very capable.

Millianna:

●●●●○ | ATTRACTION ●●○○○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●○ | TRUST

Milli is not immune to pretty ladies. She likes Cana's energy from what she's seen, and she's interested in her magic (it reminds her of Sho) and she gets some automatic loyalty/trust for being part of FT and Erza's friend.

Evie:

●○○○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●○○ | AFFECTION ●●●●○ | INTEREST ●●●●○ | LOYALTY ●●●●○ | TRUST

As a guildmaster, Evie has long had to deal with Makarov and build relationships with other guilds, so she is quite familiar with many mages within FT. Cana is one she always secretly worried about.

Bisca:

●●●○○ | ATTRACTION ●●●●● | AFFECTION ●●●●● | INTEREST ●●●●● | LOYALTY ●●●●● | TRUST

Bisca is a big supporter of Cana and has always found her to be good company. She has a great deal of respect and affection for her and would be quick to defend her from anything. (the attraction part would be higher if Bisca wasn't with Alzack but yknow)

one of my fave AUs is so wild and random but so wholesome, and that's the one where Ivan adopts Kagura and Simon. Simon not ending up at the tower?? not dying? kagura not living a vengeance filled life? embracing her true magic? the pair having a stable family dynamic? them having a little sister figure in Zilla? also the GMG in this version would be so Juicy
