[ Schneider doesn't call it out for what it is; that amongst all those people, only one person came looking for her out of concern, whether or not she needed it]
Call it a gift for showing me something impressive then.
[ Maika hums in thought and looks down at the little plush, squishing it once in her hand. She gets the feeling Schneider isn't talking just about the show of strength. ]
...People don't usually give me gifts for acting however I want. But I'm not sweet enough to turn it down. [ There's a pause, because the word has seldom come easily to her, but: ] Thanks.
Well, I like to give people gifts for that. [Whatever Maika wants to pretend it is] You're welcome.
[also this is totally where Schneider cons her way into sleeping in Maika's room until her roommate situation is sorted...which, doesn't stop her from taking catnaps there anyway]
I probably would have strung him up by his hair if I had to hear about Idrila every morning.
[ She's not best-pleased with Argenti at this point in time, but that would be true regardless. ]
...I don't know if the little priestess forgot to assign me a roommate, or if I scared her off before I saw her, but the bed is usually free. Use it when you need to.
[ "Usually." Otherwise, Maika's strays can tussle like kittens for space?? ]

[ It's half a tease, but that doesn't make it untrue. Well... one more catlike thing about Schneider. ]
...Heading back? I should put this away.
[ And she's planning on escorting Schneider casually, at which point the stray cat annexation of her room will be fulfilled! ]

[Because ew, going back to that roommate]
no subject
Which one was yours, again?
[ There's plenty of people at the meeting she wouldn't be in a hurry to go back to personally. ]

[ el oh el honestly]

I doubt he'd actually attack you, after earlier. But I wouldn't want to sleep there either.
[ If nothing else her urge to pick another fight would be overwhelming. ]

Still. Maika gives the plush a little squish, obscurely pleased. ]
