[Comes Maya's protest, though there isn't an ounce of bite to it. She lifts her hands out of his and places them on his shoulders, since that's clearly how this dance is gonna go, and she grins right at him. There's no real motive for her, no-- nothing but him in front of her. She's doing this just for the dance itself-- just to spend more time with him.
He's not in Neo Tokyo and she isn't anything like it. Hell, she barely even thinks of where he comes from when she looks at him, though Neo Tokyo is still in all the way he responds, in the tension of his shoulders, in the way he still has to hesitate when dealing with things sometimes. But Maya sees more than that-- she sees the gentleness with which he handles her, how much he's trying to make things right with Tetsuo. She sees him protecting the flames of others' candles, guarding them in the wind and finding ways to fuel their light.
If a dance and a smile keeps his own flame burning, she's here for it. He's sweet, and rough-- but there's a heart in him worth it.]
