[ Admit it, Lion. You missed it. There's an immediate hiss, the usual recoil two feet away from them, a token bit of swearing but cutting off 'sadist' before it manifests. Also a fun bonus side-note for Master perks in that he didn't feel it at all and reacted as if it did. Let the kid have satisfaction. Even the thoughts are weirdly calm in the wake of The Ushiromiya Heir's Villainy.

(Good/<sigh of relief>/They're doing better)(Can teach you later/good way defend thought barriers. Wack 'em with a newspaper internally) Remember when we met/how I gave you an oath on accident? Repeat. But he's not Unworthy. Can't remove it.

All with the internal equivalent of a kanyeshrug, an afterthought of 'my fault for ignoring it', a quick mental summary - Lion's self-destructive thought train is replaced with Too Many Feelings, Shinjiro's reverted to angry squawking with no real anger behind it, and Maya got some genuine amusement. Even if it's only temporary, it's weighed as a net gain. ]


How is it weird? Some cultures use kissing as a greeting. Don't be disrespectful.

[ It's delivered in pure deadpan, but internally it's just the emotional equivalent of Maya's gremlin cackles. Always fun to pick on the prudish types a little bit.

To loop back around to the beginning of this tag, Maya gets gently newspaper'd mentally. I would not put Lion in a tree, they'd fall out and die/bad track record/oh shut it fey <happiness/embarrassment at equal levels>. ]
