Aidan was observed socially interacting with Maya prior to the last feeding, this included behaviors of submissive pawing to her, jumping up on her and generally wanting to greet her. Maya was doing a playbow, lowering herself on her front legs to spring up in greeting. This relationship continues to have extremes of dominance and social behavior, but it is clear that Aidan respects Maya's position and follows her lead. Of course, Aidan still has littermate interactions with Denali, who is testing everything and everyone in his world.
