also btw ... if no one realized from her birthday & the date this blog was made, this blog was indeed my birthday present to maya <3
writing steve & maya at the same time is so funny & such a juxtaposition bc both have some intense abandonment issues but the difference is -
steve: everyone wants to leave me because i suck & am horrible & hard to love & there’s something in me that everyone sees that makes them leave & it’s all my fault
vs
maya: everyone leaves because they suck & are horrible & can’t be trusted & can’t handle baggage & don’t deserve me & it’s all their fault
"ugh, can't wait until that's me." maya comments with a groan at udyati's comment about not being in school anymore. "but fucking right? exactly. exactly. you get it. school is a fucking cesspool full of teachers that get off on giving you a hard time and tries to teach you shit you're never gonna actually need in life. i'm an artist, why do i need to learn math?" there's a reason she's either constantly skipping or sleeping in class. "and now you can't even make comments to yourself, in a hallway, without getting more unnecessary bullshit."
"stuff like this is why i'm so glad i'm not in school anymore. you're already forced to give up so much of your time and energy to that hell of an institution and you willingly give them more? could not be me. most teachers are energy vampires. to quote mj: all i wanna say is that they don't really care about us."
@anxietytold liked for a starter!
maya's mom had encouraged her to talk to shawn, 'he needs all the support he can get right now and he is family', so here she is, attempting to do that. even if she doesn't really want to. head is propped on her hand as she looks at shawn. "so ... what's the deal with you and prince stevie? you're usually following him around like a little lost puppy dog ... trouble in paradise?" truthfully she doesn't really exactly care, but talking about this is much more appealing to her than talking about his feelings. "or did he decide to ditch you when the truth came out? realized he was more into the whole vk aesthetic?"

Maya's eyes narrow as she fully processes what the other's said, and before either of them can even blink - she's shoving them against the nearest wall, arm across their chest, holding them in place. "What the fuck did you just say?" Is asked, rage flaring to life in her chest - blue eyes turning black in anger.
okay so everything is done on maya now! so i'm gonna try to head over to steve's blog & maybe at least do a thing or two before i get too tired? we'll see ... but i've been up for many hours & don't feel tired yet so ...
anyways either way i probably won't be back on maya till tomorrow/later, but yeah! catch me over on stevie! <3
@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.
