Maeve
Maeve feigns a look of indignation, pressing a hand to her chest as she huffs, "Ronin! You say that as if I'm going to run off and ruin him!" She isn't and she won't. A smile breaks her facade and she giggles, shaking her head, "I promise I'll behave. Not going to go accost your close friend." Maeve crosses her heart with the words as if she's making a promise.
He reminds her of his little slip up before and she snorts, "Gods. You really fucked up with that. You're lucky I like you enough to put up with it. Even if you are dramatic as hell. Remind me to send a gift basket to your husband for putting up with your bullshit. He definitely deserves one." Of course she doesn't know of the troubles they're having. Ones that they thankfully are able to work through in the long run. It's all in good fun. The way she teases him.
As they reach the glade, Maeve carefully removes the hanging snake from her shoulders. As much as she might love a companion it's probably best she waits until after the monsoons. Maeve releases him into the grass, watching as he slithers off and away. "I guess this is it then, huh?" A breathless awe coats her words as she looks up at the tree in wonder.

Poor little girl
still waiting for her happy ending
