Is, uh. Is the Fog doin' something weird again or--
[Clearing his throat and so casually leaning against the doorjamb to look cool despite the tousled kelp and dark circles under his eyes. He's totally been awake this whole time yep.]
[It may come as a surprise, but Hanna does know that it's been roughly about a year, and he maybe has already put something in the works for her as a gift for the occasion, but.... he doesn't want to put her on the spot by being the only one with a gift ready sooo... let's test these waters.
He steps back and makes a sweeping gesture into the room, inviting her in. Boy it's hard not to stare--]
Ooh, man. We should do something cool for the Friendaversary! Whaddaya think?
[Don't generalize the demon. She's Your Friend Maya. Yes, you know better than to accept a gift from a demon. Gifts from demons are rarely gifts. But this is Maya.
.....But this is Maya.
Which means... even if she's trying to get you to sell your soul, it's not like she'd do anything terrible with it, right? There's worse demons to sell your soul to--]
[Her hands sweep forward, closing something around his wrist— one of the three bracelets she'd made just a little earlier with Merlin. A herringbone pattern with oblong pearls woven every inch or so, with a tail to tie and adjust it, crafted under the watchful eye of someone who thinks very highly of Adrian, Hanna, and, well, himself— truly like a ritual, like magic, though a bit childish magic.
It's fine. It wasn't a part of Maya's childhood, so it gets to be a part of her now.
She busily sets to knotting the bracelet in a way that the knot will slide should he need to take it off, considering the... sticky situations a kelpie could get in.]
I figured, why let Adrian be the only one who gets to do a whole fun friendship contract, huh?
[Well he Was going to say something sweet and sentimental, but all that comes out is a rather undignified yelp as he scrambles to grab her arms and stop her from tickling him.]
H-hey! Whoa-- [Ack! Yipe! Eep!] Th-that's not fair!!

Or, uh. Is this look a... personal choice?

[Yeah usually traditions do happen pretty annually...]
That makes it a whole year since we've met, too!
[She starts to bring her hands up as if in prayer— but then stops short, wrings out her hands, and puts them behind her back instead.]

Whoa, you think so? What do you think we should do, huh?
[She asks, as if she hasn't entered his room for this very reason!]
1/2 yes this is respectfully
He is looking. Respectfully.]

I dunno! Hmm... [Tapping his chin thoughtfully as he leans back against the door.]
Weeee... could go somewhere fun, maybe?
no subject
[Maya makes herself comfortable, kneel-sitting at the end of Hanna's bed, hands still clutched around something.]
I kind of had something bit more immediate-gratification-style in mind, though.

[Wow his mouth is suddenly so dry.
Why is she doing that? Why does it look more sinister than usual? But like, in a sexy way? Is it because she's a demon?
No, no, Hanna, you can't generalize all demons, that's not fair-- Stop being weird about it, it's Just Maya.]
3/3
Whaaaat would that be...?

[It's Just Maya. She's not that threatening, right? She was a perfectly nice demon last time, right??
He would know what he was getting into if he was getting into anything, right???]

Maya-- [Once she has it secured, he hugs his wrist to his chest defensively.]
It's never coming off.
[Has anyone ever been this jazzed about a contract with a demon?]
no subject
[She
threatensteases, nearly clapping her hands together again— but instead settling on balling her hands up into excited fists.]If I ever catch you without it, I'll cry until you put it back on!

The Fog Herself couldn't make me make you cry on purpose. It won't go anywhere.
[He would rather die really. But to keep her from thinking about the implications of that too much, he's gonna move right along to teasing--]

He's so struck by the response that he doesn't even notice her readying for attack. He's vulnerable; blinded by the stars in his eyes.]
