[AHA!! as soon as Akira refers to her by her proper title, Magilou props her hands on her hips, squares her shoulders, and gives Morgana the sharpest smile she can manage]
That's right. ☆ Only the most feared witch on this side of the universe! Fresh from a three year stay in the isolated island prison of Titania, I am back to wreak havoc and chaos wherever I go!
[at least she isn't giving Morgana the long, fake name along with her introduction]
Island prison... ? What kind of shady character did you bring back with you?
[ A WITCH WHO WAS IN PRISON FOR THREE YEARS?? they're a bunch of thieves, so they probably can't talk, but havoc and chaos also aren't their goals, so?? He tilts his head at Magilou, then stands up, taking a few steps down the counter to peer at her. ]
... You've been coming here a lot... And you've been spending a lot of time with him. I can tell. Are you two actually...?
You know I've been in jail twice, right... we're all shady characters.
[morgana, please! they're all shady!]
She's... like us in a lot of ways, prison or not.
[an outcast, an outsider. someone who doesn't quite fit in and has a reason to be wary about other people. so akira just sighs softly, faintly amused.] A lot happened with us over those five weeks.
[yeah, they're ACTUALLY, but he knows magilou has her own hangup, so she can address that on her own.]
[ yeah but "island prison for three years" makes it sound like she killed a man and got put into alcatraz?! obviously, akira would never do such a thing . . . . . .
he squints up at Akira as he speaks - once again, he trusts his judgement, so he decides this girl is probably fine. Her goofy way of talking sort of reminds him of Futaba... Maybe that's why they ended up getting along. ]
I can't believe you went to some kind of crazy battle royale and came back with a new girlfriend... As expected of our Joker, I guess. Well, I won't judge you. [ Morgana licks his paw idly, eyes flicking up to Magilou. ] What's so witchy about you?
[he can't judge if she killed a man, he killed people too. and she killed him? it's all even and fair, even if they haven't gotten to that part of the story.
either way, akira just shrugs. coming home with a girlfriend from murder island is definitely like him, and he figures he should leave the witchy explanations to magilou. until she gets out of control, which he'll then temper a bit.]
. . . hmph. Don't embarrass me! After that experience, why shouldn't he have come home with something good, like an entertaining and villainous girl-- [haaaaa] -- friend such as myself?
[THAT IS DEFINITELY THE FIRST TIME SHE HAS EVER USED THAT TERM, thanks Morgana]
[hey guess what, having her artes back means that she has her powers of illusion back!! so with a snap of her fingers, a twirl, and a wave of her hand above her head, there's a sudden flash of light and]
[POP]
[a series of colorful balloons suddenly appear in the air above them all, before they burst into a series of sparkles and confetti!! which rains down on everyone, but mysteriously disappears before it hits the floor? weird]
[ Balloons suddenly showing up is convincing enough; Morgana's jumped up to his feet the minute they appear, staring at them with huge eyes. But you know what cats hate? Popping balloons. Morgana, of course, is definitely not a cat in any way. It's a coincidence that he practically jumps out of his fur when they burst, scuttling behind Akira's arm a little. Just a little. He's tough, after all.
what is she saying about being a vile villain magician magigjijigigijiggydoo?? who cares, she just did some crazy shit. ]
W-w-what the hell?! You really are magic?!
[ says the talking cat that transforms into a van -- BUT THIS IS DIFFERENT, OKAY ]
but it's part of her charm, akira thinks. it has nothing to do with why he likes her, considering all she could manage on murder island was basic sleight-of-hand, but this is impressive. another reason to find her charming in her own right.]
She's pretty magical.
[shrug.
even if morgana does get an amused brow quirk here.]
You're pretty magical too though, Morgana. [catbus catbus.]

Oh my! A lady doesn't kiss and tell.

And a witch is strictly prohibited from speaking of matters of the heart, anyway. Witch's Code, Section 17, Line 183. Look it up.
