[He is now rudely pressing a medium sized box into Maro's space. The short fae teen is just making himself a problem.] I am no longer asking for a merry Christmas, I am making it happen, specifically for you!
[He only looks a little uncomfortable when the teen forces himself into his space. Look, he gets it. In fact, if anything, it probably means this kid is better adjusted than your average Ryslig teen.]
Well, thank you very much. May I?
[He waits for the slightest sign of confirmation with amusement before he opens the box.]
You must. [Leo says immediately, grinning as Maro opens the box.]
Technically think it's more a display piece, but I made it myself!
[Within is an incrediblychunky mug in the shape of a computer. The handle is a little lumpy and misshapen, but still useable. On the screen, Leo has drawn a little smiley face on the screen.
Within the mug are some hand cut out stickers Leo made. All of them are genuinely groan worthy computer puns. Beneath the mug is a plain tie the turtle tried drawing computers on. Its very hit and miss, but he sure tried.
The fourteen year old smiles up at Marco a little expectantly, his antenna wiggling somewhat. For all the bravado, Leo does genuinely want Marco to like the gift.]
[It's quite likely that Marco's face says enough - the way his expression softens as he unveils each part of the gift, even the genuine snort at one of the stickers... This is good. This is very good.]
Thank you. [He smiles.] I see you had a good informant.
[All that bravado? Gone. Just Leo smiling happily up at Marco, very much a child excited to please.]
Santa knows what you like. So, I thought I gotta indulge that. [His antenna wiggle a little more as he folds his hands behind his back.] I'm Leo by the way.
Clearly means you and Donnie would get along pretty well. Just start talking tech, and wham, friendship. [he says easily enough, finding common ground in the topic of his twin.]
What do you like, besides computer stuff? [Actually interested in this becoming a full conversation, more likely than you'd think!]
You should play games with me. [And now Marco has a teenager trying to hang out with him. Leo is naturally overly social, and a little lonely, so he's just happy to talk with everyone.] I think it'd be fun!

[He winks.]
You obviously already know a thing or two about me.

[He pauses, realizing with some sense of tact, is a little much. He taps his clawed fingers together a little nervously.] Friends, I mean.
I don't know a lot about computer-y stuff, but Donnie does. I kinda went by some stuff I know he'd find funny.

Well, you did a good job. All of us computer nerds might just be cut from the same cloth.

[Maya Fey has been trying to get this man a hobby for years, with limited success.]
T... Technology in general, really. I mean, I'm not much of a gamer, I never have been, but... Oh, you know. The way it evolves...
