[ Oh. Hmm. He takes Maverick's hand— laces his fingers with his and everything- and squeezes. ]

Hot 'bout like this, then~ Buy me ice cream every day or die!

[s c r e a m that's not at all what he was trying to do!!!! Boy really is trying to kill him, huh...]

Mmm, pass. Once a month?

[ That'll teach Maverick not to touch him unless he wants Kano to destroy everything he loves. ]

Haggling for your life, huh? Haha, how bold~!

[ But does Kano want to eat ice cream/foam/waffle cones every single day? No, that's the quickest way to ruin something. ]

Hm, hm~ Once a week, and it doesn't have to be ice cream, final offer~

[He thought he was safe already being dragged along!! Life is so hard. He really, really hates how he's thinking about the temperature of Kano's hand against his own and the difference in where their skin is touching and where his fingerless gloves act as a thin barrier. He hates it so much.]

Deal. Because I basically already buy you some fucking thing once a week, don't I?

[ Maverick is never safe, ever, not when Kano is here with his cold fingers but warm palms, squeezing Maverick's hand tightly so he can't pull away. ]

Yep, that's right~ And I already don't kill you once a week, so it's like nothing changes. Easy, easy~ The contract is sealed~

[Eugh. People being that cold is a fuzzy memory, but still a bad one, and combined with Kano's glibness... Good thing he didn't have any of the snacks earlier, because otherwise he would be feeling them churn unpleasantly in his stomach.]

Can you, like, fucking not joke about shit like that?

[ The killing thing or- the contract, probably? Ramona said something about that, that Maverick would probably hate him if he learned that Kano's contracted, and twice over in the near future, at that. It'd be really funny to joke around and pretend that he's a demon himself, but he really doesn't want Maverick to hate him, so he just swings their hands high back and forth as they walk, motion to distract where his words cannot. ]

Alright, alright~ Shall we pinky promise instead? Would that be better?

[The very little amount of Ramona inside me would like to make it clear that she didn't say he'd hate him specifically!!! It just freaks him out. And if he pretended to be the demon, yeah, he'd probably hate him, then, because who does that? (Kano. Kano does that.)

Anyway, now he's being called out on his preferred method of deal-making and that's no good, either? So he'll just grumble and look vaguely embarrassed in an angry way. Don't make fun of him and his dumb love of soft, intimate, hand-related shit...........]

[ Freaking him out for real and on purpose is different than freaking him out for real and on purpose and as a joke, and Kano's convinced Maverick would definitely hate him if he gave any indication he's anything but a basic Candle.

The vaguely embarrassed grumbly face is very telling, anyways, so Kano turns around so he's walking backwards and still holding onto Maverick's hand, but reaches for his other with his pinky to hook them. ]

Like this is alright? I could cross my heart, too~

[look at this fucking asshole, Mav hates him.]

You're so fucking stupid.

[he says, holding out his own pinkie.]

Haha, yeah, yeah~

[ But he takes Maverick's other hand and brings it up to his chest so he can cross their hands over his heart, he doesn't mind being stupid so long as he's not hated. ]

[ugh!!! this stupid bastard. Promise now carved into their souls, as far as he's concerned, he takes his hand back and tries to flick Kano in the forehead. Brat!!]

Got a place in mind?

[ A hand coming towards his face makes him flinch and squeeze his eyes shut to steel himself for a harder blow that doesn't come, but at least the flick isn't hard enough to break through his illusion of a smile. ]

Yep, it's not too far~ A super fancyyyy [ drumroll ] McDonald's!!

[ Which is apparently actually super fancy compared to what we have here, and they sometimes have both ice cream and beer. Wild ]

[what the fuck is up with france...their mcdonalds have beer but peanut butter isn't widely available???]

...Am I getting you a happy meal? [Do you want the toy, too?]

[ Backwards priorities and maybe that's why they're overrun with demons. ]

Will you buy me a happy meal? I'll let you eat it if I can have the toy.

I'm a little surprised you don't want to hoard more fucking food, but whatever, I don't give a crap. Order whatever loser thing you want. [...wait -- ] Within reason. Don't break my fucking wallet.

Burgers are too messy to keep in my pocket... [ Even if they're supposed to keep unspoiled for years on end. Or maybe French burgers aren't the same as American monstrosities, he doesn't know. ]

Hey, how much is in your wallet, anyways? What's my upper limit?

[squints!!!]

I don't really want to fucking answer that.

[IT SEEMS UNWISE... Ugh, it would be good to cap it out, though...]

Let's say if you manage to make me spend more than €25 at fucking McDo, I'll be impressed but not too fucking happy.

[ That's honestly a lot higher than he was expecting, which is basically two mugs of beer and two ice cream cones, probably not more than five euros total. ]

I'll take that challenge~ You'll be helping me eat everything, so don't be too upset!

[Kano is a pit. He mentally inflated for three full meals, basically.]

That wasn't a goddamn invitation to go nuts. I just think you're already fucking nuts enough to do that.

Yeah, but don't let me get away with things~ It's on you to say no, so enforce your limits when you need to!

[ He's a demanding little shit, but only because nobody tells him no. Anyways, McD's in front of them, Maverick's hand get squeezed extra tight because once they get through the door he's not allowed to make a scene in public and leave. ]

[scream..............]

Right. Don't act fucking scandalized if I veto part of our order, then. Say the shit you want most up front.

[ If he doesn't scream out loud, Kano won't know, so hang in there. ]

Soft serve vanilla ice cream in a waffle cone and rainbow sprinkles.

[he doesn't know what he expected

Do they even have sprinkles? He doesn't think they have sprinkles...but honestly he wants to see Kano ask for sprinkles and either get his sprinkles, proving him wrong, or have to be told by some poor minimum wage sop that sorry, sir, they don't have sprinkles, did you want a McFlurry instead, those have candy pieces.]

With or without a toy?

[ Yells, what sort of fast food place has beer but no sprinkles... He's going to have to request the worker there to crush up candy pieces into sprinkle sized bits. ]

With a toy~ But that comes after the ice cream! Priority-wise, it's like this: ice cream, toy, fries, hash browns, nuggets, milk, beer.
