[That mocking burst of laughter causes Ekko to grit his teeth in mild frustration as she toys with him like this, watching on intently as Jinx moves to close the gap between the pair of them. A tilt of his head curiously is ushered forth but before he could say anything in rebuttal he finds the girl invading his personal space pressing her face against his own. A bewildered look of shock crosses his face standing motionlessly in place as both confusion and unease courses through him, a faint shade of red filling over his cheeks in embarrassment at the close proximity unable to pry himself immediately away from her intense grasp completely stun locked.

Clearing his throat after a minute or two of silence, the boy bites the inside of his cheek to suppress a breathy gasp before he finally snaps out of it. The jolt of consternation quickly being replaced by one of amusement, a wry grin followed in short by a yank of his head back from the others hold on him finally.]

A little obsessive don't you think, Jinx?

[Taking a few steps back as he collects himself after the odd sensation that settled over his figure, crossing arms over his chest to put a guard up around himself sighing solemnly.]

Just make sure you keep your end of the bargain and get the materials I'll need to fix the board along with creating a new one. Got it?

[A beat as he points a finger towards the board she claimed as her own now.]

I'll need to take a look at it soon enough to see what exactly is wrong. Until then...Try not to wreck it any further.
