But Lucy's father loved her he just messed up too much before he could make a mend in person. Well... not at first sadly. Jude did hire a ruthless guild to retrieve Lucy which led to her getting straight up kidnapped and tortured. Not to mention he would have been indirectly responsible for the destruction of Magnolia if Fairy Tail  did not stop that Jupiter cannon. And he did all of that not because he missed Lucy, but because he was planning on marrying her off so that he could further expand his wealth. Yep, Jude was a man who focused only on his money on work... at first. I will say that I can't blame him for that since the trigger for it all was his wife's death.

Which brings me to this thought that crossed my mind a while back: I wonder if Papa Schnee's behavior is the result of the possible death of Mama Schnee? Hence his overshadowing of his daughters.
