[ not gonna lie she's kind of picturing the bounty hunter business like a slicker private eye. ]

Ace spiritualist, thanks. [ if he's gonna puff himself up so is she! ] And I bet I've dealt with way darker stuff. So quit stalling! Or are you just making this whole thing up to impress me?

[ like nick does in court!!! ]

[menarefrom]

Ace Spiritualist. My bad.

[With the slightest of smirks, Spike holds up his hands in mock surrender.]

Fine, fine. Coolest case...

[All the same, he takes a moment to rub his neck and gnaw on another pepper. Coolest case. It's tiring to think about after everything else that's happened. Is the life of a bounty hunter really all that cool?]

Let me ask you then-- have you ever been to Callisto?

[But before she can answer, he holds up a finger.]

I know you haven't. And you're too young for that. [So don't even think about it.] It's a cold world out there five planets from the sun.

hi i'm alive

[feytality]

Much better. [ she looks smug..... maybe because this guy is indulging her, versus most people who think spirit channeling is a scam. yikes. ]

[ she opens her mouth to respond --- then pouts when he cuts her off. she knows he thinks she's a child, but is there a minimum age to go to a freaking moon? ]

Hey, c'mon! I didn't even know you could go out that far in space --- how do I know you're not just making this up? Maybe you should take me there.

[ just saying. ]

[menarefrom]

I just said you shouldn't go to Callisto! There's nothing for you there, anyway. Or for me, for that matter.

[There is definitely a minimum age to go to a moon when that moon is essentially a giant gay bar.

Spike shakes his head and pouts as well, looking past Maya at the stars as if to spite the universe with his glare.]

Besides, even if I had my baby with me, the Swordfish II's a one-seater. Not a chance.

[feytality]

I just figured you were making it up 'cause you didn't want to share any of the fun.

[ look he may not be able to see the pout, but he can feel it. ]

We'll see about that. [ that sounded... almost ominous. ] Anyway, continue with your story already!

[ she says, like she isn't the one who interrupted him.... ]

[menarefrom]

Well then quit interrupting me!

[Spike grumbles, shaking his half-eaten stick of beef and bell peppers at Maya. Ein huffs at him, and Spike's the one to growl, leaning back and tearing off another chunk of veg.]

See? Now I don't remember where I was. I'm gonna have to start over.

[feytality]

It's cause you were talking about Callisto and how you were too chicken to take me there.

[ okay maya. ]

[ she pets ein, stretching her legs out and giving him a challenging grin. gosh, how old is this guy that he doesn't remember his stories? ]

Then make it good, Mr. Spike.

[ is she saying this out of genuine respect or further teasing?? mystery. ]

[menarefrom]

Well excuse me for assuming some little cult girl doesn't have any interest in a planet full of gay bars.

[Grumps Spike further, taking Maya's tone for facetiousness whether she's meant it or not. Ein, preoccupied with Maya's petting, could not give less of a shit about how Spike's putting up his foot on his chosen seat-rock, talking with food in his mouth like some kind of criminal goblin. He's made of great impressions.]

You're probably more suited to Venus or Mars anyway, if you made your way out there.

[feytality]

[ honestly maya's never been to any kind of bar, so the idea is highly intriguing, but as soon as the words 'cult' come out of his mouth she's puffing up indignantly!!! literally, even, she's giving him the ol' pufferfish face. how intimidating. ]

It's not a cult! It's spirit channeling!

[ which does little to dissuade him, probably. ] A-A very respectable line of mediums, thank you very much!

[ it's totally derailed her tbh ]

[menarefrom]

[It's derailed her, and it would seem it's derailed Spike as well. His eyes are wide in surprise, suddenly, and he puts his feet back on the ground, leaning his elbows on his knees.]

Well, I'll be.

So you're the real deal, are you?

[He tips his head forward, eyes on her expectantly. could this be the right card to play??]

[feytality]

[ she's nearly bratty enough to break out spirit channeling just to prove him wrong, but only nearly. it's a bit of a sore spot, though, misty and all. ]

Sure am! So watch it, or you just might get cursed!

[ idle (???) threats, though, that totally proves how legit and respectable she is, right. she's balling her fists up, too, she means (???) business (???) ]
