i deleted it but the tags of the this og post were also done by him so you can have his wise words of wisdom in there <3 he's also currently purring so loud he's vibrating my whole bed so there's that too
i'm sorry y'all that last post was made my cat -
this time maya can't hold back the roll of her eyes at kie's comment about her attitude. it's not like it's anything she hasn't heard before. but at the revelation of what the other's here for, realization dawns on her. she hasn't forgotten about the sketches, in fact, they're sitting finished on the desk in the corner as they speak. but she had forgotten kie would be showing up to get them soon. to be fair, it's been a long week.
still though, she's not easily going to admit her faults or mistakes so instead she purses her lips, ignoring the comments about the texts - she always keeps her phone on silent when she's trying to concentrate and she won't apologize for it - before letting out another sigh and setting the pencil down and laying her sketchbook open on the bed.
"right, yeah, okay. but no, no need to ask anyone else. they're right here." she stands, making her way over to them and picking them up the desk. however before handing them over she gives the other a raised brow. "i want the money first." of course she's not going to trust easily, it's not in her nature. no matter how much khione may have proven herself to be trustworthy in the past. this involves her getting paid.
it takes her longer than expected to get to maya, if only because mister kent inquired about her and her friends like the good person he is.
(and, also, whether this is a shoes-off household or not, she is a shoes-off person.)
after making the trek to maya's room, kie knocks before entering. it doesn't matter if people told her before that she can just enter (some of her classmates don't give a fuck, like karol topolski); she can't for the life of her enter someone's precious private domain without at least announcing herself.
"your frosty attitude," kie shoots back immediately, "please cool it down. i'm here for the figure skating dress sketches, as previously discussed. with the payment, also as previously discussed."
for a moment, she's quiet, taking in maya's room. "dunno if you saw it but i texted you i was on my way. and then i texted you again when i got here." then her demeanor softens, like snow flurries descending. "if it's not do-able, that's okay too. really, i can just ask penny lent. no harm, no foul. it'll still get done before my showcase. i don't want you to get stressed out on my behalf. i know what it's like when other people turn art into something it's not and i would never want to do that to a fellow artist."

@freezegirl asked: headcanon question: is there a particular reason why maya fights crime as the blonde beauty instead of coining super[girl/woman/etc] as a name, beyond her being blonde?
( random headcanon questions (always accepting) )
maya went into this knowing she needed to do something to keep herself separated from her and 'aunt' kara. she went into this knowing there'd already be suspicions with a random kryptonian kid showing up, fighting crime. she knew she had to be smart and careful, in some ways at least. so chose to use a name that wouldn't be tied to her family. chose to forgo the 'super' moniker and use a name that would be unique to her and wouldn't have it as easy for her to be recognized as a 'super'. she chose the blonde beauty because, well, as said - she's blonde. and because it felt like a fitting enough name. and it was all done more so to keep suspicions from being raised amongst her dad and the rest of her family, less so than for the general public. that's also why she wears a mask. of course, it's also to keep her secret identity secret. but she has to keep it from her family too, so.
however, maya couldn't deny herself from having at least one little tie to her family, to her father, so that's why the 'b' on her costume in the same font as the house of el crest. thankfully, no one ever seems to catch on.

okay promo is done ... writing time!
wait nevermind pluto is a blind dumbass & the sizing is indeed on here -
besties question that might make me sound like an idiot but - how do we know what size images are in templates now? bc no one lists sizes anymore, except on icon templates & i’ve just been guesstimating but i assume - there’s an easier solution … ? is there a setting on photopea that will tell me this or something 🤨
This is such a total flustercluck.
@downspirals liked for a starter!
"i don't need help from anyone, least of all you." maya says with a glare towards the other, backing up from her as though rain's going to provide unwanted touch or something. "just leave me alone. don't you have someone else you can go bother?"
