MAEA
Oh, she had not meant to leave out her thoughts on the swim apparel. The thought had been nice, something worth considering - she was simply distracted by other thoughts, and failed to bring it up again. Before she could mention it again though, Harper had moved on, and Maea's cheeks flushed a little at the gratitude, for both him and Libbs. She tried to wave it off.
"Just a good first impression, for the both of you," she told him, with a half smile. "I don't presume to know either of you, it would be... hasty of me. Wouldn't it? But you are nice. Easy to talk to." And coming from her, it was... rather high praise. "I suppose I just prefer to see people happy? There's enough sadness in this world as it is, no need to add to it if it can be avoided."
Which sounded a little high and mighty, coming from someone who was trampling over other people's happiness to achieve her own. The flush deepened when Harper brought up Sunjata. Maea threw him a quick glance before turning back to look at the sea, the sunlight glittering on the waves. Dazzling, blinding... a little painful. Not unlike her feelings for the Flood.
"Well... you're not wrong," she admitted, unsure of how much to say. It was so fresh still, the Midnight Gathering only recently passed. "We've... grown close. I think it might work between us... and he says he wants to try." Digging her fingers deeper into the sand, her expression had softened, warming at the thought of the bartender.

I'm an angel bored like hell
And you're a devil meaning well
