Okay, so picking exotic food probably hadn't been the best idea but Maria put on her most innocent smile at the look Viola was currently giving her. It'd be a lie if she denied taking some pleasure from ruffling Viola's feathers. Could you blame her though? She loved any reaction she could get out of Viola. Though Viola trying to skewer and almost immediately spitting out the chunk they'd tried to eat made her pout. It didn't last long though, because she took a bite from her own. Obviously she wasn't nearly as bothered by the texture as Viola.
Only after swallowing did she take a step closer to Viola, letting her free hand lightly brush against Viola's hip, as if to try and lure Viola closer (if they were willing). "You pick something to eat then. It's your turn to decide, Viola, what do you want?" In Maria's usual fashion her voice had taken on a thick with seduction tone once more.

Viola couldn’t help but glare mutinously at Maria as she ate the skewer of who-knew-what with a smile on her face. Show off. Viola wasn’t sure if they were better off not knowing what they had just attempted to ingest, so they kept quiet, extending their stick to Maria instead, in case their girlfriend wanted a second helping of whatever toxic sludge it was that she seemed to enjoy.
When they were told that it was their turn to pick something to eat and something to do, and they narrowed their eyes at Maria. This sounded suspiciously like a trap, so they were going to give the answer that any good partner was supposed to give. “Whatever you want is fine by me, my Maria.” They were surprised by how much truth there was in that answer. It actually was easier for Viola to see Maria having a good time at this carnival than it was for them to have a good time themself. Viola supposed that their childhood simply didn’t lend itself to enjoying the carnival, so why even try to pretend otherwise when they could gain just as much enjoyment from watching Maria have a good time?

Viola could be soooo dramatic sometimes. Just that look they were giving her almost made Maria roll her eyes. They had left it up to Maria after all! It was practically their own fault. Despite her mild annoyance she took the skewer Viola had given up on and silently started to munch on that one too. Maybe it was because she'd lived in more then one country before, but Maria wasn't a picky eater. Never had been. Shrugging at Viola's words she dropped the remainder of both skewers into one of the scattered trash bins. "But what if I want to you eat? Wouldn't it be better to pick something you'd actually enjoy?" She asked in that same low and seductive voice. She always loved using that voice on people, but Viola in particular was fun. Partially because it never seemed to affect them the way it did most. Taking Viola's hand she started to lead her partner to one of the food stalls, a far more normal looking one then before. "Come on, your turn to pick something, Vi." She urged again. It wasn't like she could poison food bought from a vendor after all.

Viola watched as Maria discarded their skewers of mystery meat, making some argument about why she oughtn’t be the one to pick their next activity. “Why would I enjoy something when I can tease you about how much I didn’t enjoy it?” Viola asked playfully. This experience was so much more than just eating food or playing games – it was watching Maria be in her element somewhere, without also having to watch their girlfriend flirt with other people. It was fascinating in a way that nothing in the carnival could match. Maria insisted that it was their turn to pick something, and Viola sighed. “Really, Maria. I don’t do carnivals. It’s much easier for you to lead us.” Viola was afraid that they’d accidentally pick something that reminded them of their less-than-stellar relationship with their mother and sour the day. If Maria picked it, then it was because she thought it was interesting and worthwhile, not because she had some sort of subconscious desire to repair a memory from the past. The carnival was not a place to talk about psychology or insecurities, though, so Viola was just going to keep pushing back against Maria.

Maria was laughing and shaking her head. Of course Viola would say that. Viola loved being rebellious just for the sake of being rebellious. It was what made Viola Viola. Leaning in she planted a quick kiss on Viola's cheek, grinning widely as she pulled back. "Well, at least I know you are enjoying your not enjoyment." She teased right back as she squeezed Viola's hand just a little. Maria really was in a good mood. Obviously school stifled her quite a bit, but out here? You could really see that carefree and wild nature completely loose. And in an almost productive way.
At Viola's refusal, again, to make a decision, Maria pouted. But finally she just shook her head and looked at the stand in front of them for something semi normal to eat. Finally she settled on something that seemed.... somewhat normal. Still holding Viola's hand tightly she stepped up to the counter and dropped a few coins on it. "A bucket of popcorn." Popcorn was always a good choice, right? Soon the container was handed over the counter to her. At which point Maria turned to Viola, finally releasing their hand as she took a piece of popcorn and held it close to Viola's mouth. Of course Maria was going to force feed them if she had to... "You will eat this, Viola. I can't have you crashing on me before tonight's over."

Viola wrinkled their nose a little bit as Maria said they were enjoying their not enjoyment. They weren’t entirely sure that sentence made sense, but life with Maria rarely did make total sense. It was just fun, and sometimes a little bit (or a lot) scary. “I enjoy anything that involves you, Maria.” Viola finally decided. That was a good response to just about anything, since it would keep their girlfriend in good spirits – not that that was a problem given their location.
Maria was pouting at Viola for their refusal to choose something, and Viola just rolled their eyes. Maria did an awful lot of pouting, but it seemed that Viola was the only one who wasn’t fazed by it. Granted, they were still sometimes susceptible to the pull of Veela Charm, but as far as they could tell, Maria hadn’t purposefully used that on them since the Yule Ball. If only she had known what that one choice would mean for them, Viola thought with a smirk. If Maria hadn’t used the charm on them, then Viola probably wouldn’t have asked Maria to be their girlfriend, and then they’d never be… this. “Popcorn is good.” Viola finally acquiesced. “Do I need to eat the entire bucket, or can I throw some of it at you?” Viola chuckled, grabbing some popcorn from the receptacle Maria was holding, but desperately hoping that they wouldn’t have to eat the entire thing.

Viola always had the most adorable expressions, especially when they were in reaction to something Maria had said or done. So she couldn't help that smug little smile that followed, which only grew more even smugger at Viola's comment. "Anything?" Maria slowly repeated. She could think of quite a few things that Viola might not enjoy.
At least Maria had found an option that Viola would eat! That was a plus, and she grinned proudly as Viola said popcorn was good. Holding the bucket in one hand she reached out with the other to catch Viola's wrist. "As long as you aim for my mouth." She answered as she bowed her head just enough to bring her lips to Viola's hand and eat one of the pieces of popcorn. "Mmm. Could use garlic, but if I plan on kissing you thoroughly tonight it'd be best to avoid bad breath." Maria smirked a little, both parts of that statement quite serious. Garlic was good, but kissing was a much higher priority then food. And kissing Viola? Easily becoming one of her favorite pass times. While they hadn't gone farther yet, that was okay. Maria wouldn't push her partner past what they were comfortable with, but kissing senseless was thankfully within their comfort zone.

Viola was smart enough to realize that confirming they would do anything with Maria was probably a bad choice, so they just winked at their girlfriend when she repeated the word. She could take that in whatever way she wanted to take it.
Maria made Viola promise to aim for her mouth when it came to the popcorn, and they nodded. “I don’t have good aim.” They deadpanned. That would give them the perfect excuse to throw popcorn at places on Maria that weren’t her mouth. Viola’s smile, which had started out small and slightly sarcastic (if a smile could be such a thing) broadened exponentially at the thought of Maria using her fire powers to singe said pieces of popcorn before they could actually hit her. That would be a display worth watching, especially if they got a front row seat. The only obstacle would be getting Maria riled up enough to actually do that, instead of just batting the popcorn away (or trying to catch the popcorn in her mouth despite the poor angle). Viola barely caught Maria’s comment about kissing since they were so caught up in figuring out a way to make that happen. “There’s this thing called toothpaste. You could use it.” They said with a chuckle when Maria mentioned the popcorn needing garlic. It wasn’t like Viola couldn’t wait to be kissed, unlike someone they knew.

Ugh, Viola didn't confirm or deny, instead just winking at Maria. It took all her self control (which obviously wasn't much) to stop herself from pulling Viola to her right then. It was just such a tease!
Maria laughed at Viola's very straight faced admittance. Of course their aim was bad. Maria wasn't sure if she fully believed that. "Get very close then." was her answer, though there was still that nagging feeling that she was about to get pelted with popcorn at any second. "Yes, but that's back at the ship. You expect me to wait that long?" Surprisingly Maria knew she could wait that long. If it was for Viola? She could wait as long as necessary.

Viola gave Maria an amused smile when their girlfriend suggested that if their aim was bad, they ought to just get closer. Obviously they had no problem with getting close to their girlfriend, but giving Maria what she wanted all the time took the fun out of everything. Maria said that if Viola made them wait until after she brushed her teeth for kissing, it would take too long, and Viola looked at her. “How fast we get back to the ship depends entirely upon you.” They said, wishing that they had hair long enough to toss over their shoulder in a casual gesture. Instead, they give Maria a wicked grin. “Chase me, my Maria.” Viola didn’t wait a moment longer before turning on their heel and taking off into the crowd.
