Leo brings the flair, Virgo brings the logistics, and together they actually pull off the elaborate plans that other friend pairs only talk about. They prefer one-on-one hangouts to large groups for real conversation, though Leo will pull Virgo into bigger events for special occasions.
Texting is steady and practical, with the occasional emotional check-in.
