MAEA
Maea remained blissfully ignorant of all the flirting that had gone on between her adopted brother and her partner, safe and comfortable in the reassurance Amun had given that her things were off the market. Anything of the past could stay in the past, just like Sunjata's old conquest. Notches in a bedpost, was all they were to her. Hardly even worth mentioning anymore.
She gave Sunjata a rueful smile as he helped her up into the bed. It was probably for the better that he didn't try to pick her up; this was good enough. Less painful. "Yes. He reminds me so much of Noah. They had the same way of laughing at the world, and refusing to give up on people they've decided to like." Sunjata had tendencies in that direction too, come to think of it. Though he was far less generous with whom he let close, and if he ever laughed freely, it had caught in his throat.
Maea poked her tongue at him when he corrected her, like some nitpicking scholar. "Whatever you say," she said, quiet laughter in her voice. But as he leaned in to kiss her nose - trying to outdo competition, eh? - Maea brougth her chin up to steal a kiss from his lips instead. Then grinned a cheshire smile at him, looking quite pleased with herself.
