[ gosh lion why so nervous........ maya doesn't seem to notice, she twirls it near her head. ]
I don't really know why Michael was giving it out as a gift.... but I guess I can't complain now that I can slice through these vegetables like they're paper!
[ she gives lion an innocent face. ]
Huh? I'm not pointing it at you or anything! Don't worry, I won't stab you.
[ is that what lion's worried about?? ]

michael said lion's blood pressure wasn't high enough yet
.... Huh, maybe. But a shield would be better for that kind of thing.. doncha think?
[ maya startles a little at lion's louder tone, jumping slightly and jerking the knife up a little..... this is helping with lion's blood pressure, right. ]
Yeah, but it's practical..... [ ... ] Um, are you okay? Do knives make you uncomfortable? Should I throw it away?
They don't- well. [ They can't say that with a straight face. ] They don't, anymore then anything potentially life-threatening does.
[ Y'know, like a normal person who is lowkey used to the narrative trying to kill them. ]
Please don't throw away your gift. Practical though it may be, it... also makes it more likely that you'll hurt yourself in the process. And if that is an incredibly sharp knife...
[ They trail off. Look, Maya, y'alls don't have the best track record. Neither do they. ]
Please hold. There appears to be a connection error between Lion's brain and Lion's mouth. ]
Maya! [ It's. Probably a good thing that they're used to accidents happening as a general concept, because there's a small first aid kit in the kitchen already. ] I just warned you that would happen.
[ ... but they don't have the heart to be properly stern, just frazzled. ]
Despite the frazzled sigh, the rest happens on autopilot; there's a brief, hesitant twitch of a hand before they remember the magic isn't there, as they go and fetch the nearest first aid kit instead. ]
[ so mean. also, it's a good thing lion got her a first aid kit because she clearly needs it. she also waves lion offf, continue to suck on her thumb. ]
yes it is

michael said lion's blood pressure wasn't high enough yet
[ Much like they are, right now, since they can't fix shit. ]
I'm not worried about that!
[ Whoops, too loud. ]
I know you wouldn't. I trust you. It's just... ah... [ A pause, rifling through excuses. ] Thaaaat... isn't a kitchen knife, you know?
good thing he fixed that
[ maya startles a little at lion's louder tone, jumping slightly and jerking the knife up a little..... this is helping with lion's blood pressure, right. ]
Yeah, but it's practical..... [ ... ] Um, are you okay? Do knives make you uncomfortable? Should I throw it away?
[ also helping ]
michael's a helper

always
[ the narrative also tries to kill her a lot. it's a thing. ]
I kind of meant like, throw it out of your sight. Like, right this second!
[ it's impossible to tell whether or not she's joking. ]
Don't worry, Lion, I'm a pro at cooking and handling sharp objects! I--
[ she immediately nicks herself on it. comedic irony required it. ]

[ well, that worked out great!!! maya discards the knife (for now), and puts her finger in her mouth (very sanitary) to suck on. muffled: ]
You distracted me!
[ no it is 100% entirely her fault. ]
no subject
[ wow harsh-
Despite the frazzled sigh, the rest happens on autopilot; there's a brief, hesitant twitch of a hand before they remember the magic isn't there, as they go and fetch the nearest first aid kit instead. ]
Hold on, there has to be bandaids here somewhere-
[ and thus the fussing begins. ]

It's fine, it'll stop on its own...
