❛     sorry  ,  this  is  kind  of  out  of  nowhere  ------  uh  ,  i  ...  okay  .  so  ,  marc  and  i  are  starting  to  work  on  a  new  story  arc  for  our  comic  ,  and  i  was  wondering  if  you’d  maybe  be  interested  in  helping  with  some  of  the  new  designs  ?     ❜  you’re  afraid  of  coming  off  as  too  eager  ------  you  don’t  want  marinette  to  feel  like  she  has  to  help  ,  or  anything  ,  because  you  know  she  has  a  pretty  busy  schedule  as - is  .  but  on  the  other  hand  ,  you  really  do  like  her  work  ,  and  you’d  been  thinking  about  asking  something  like  this  since  you  and  marc  started  with  the  comic  .  you  just  ..  hadn’t  really  been  sure  she  had  the  time  ?

but  ,  as  marc  had  pointed  out  to  you  ,  the  worst  thing  she’d  do  would  be  to  say  no  ,  and  that  wouldn’t  be  the  end  of  the  world  .

u called?

      “ you designed this? ”    there was a note of distinct interest in elsa’s voice as she observed the dress upon the modelling dummy, running her fingers over the material gently. silently, she admired the craftsmanship and obvious care that went into sewing and creating the garment. it was cute -- very adorable, and it suited the look of the young girl who had created it. 

        meow!  she smelled nice━━  freshly baked bread, perhaps? or the lingering scent of a well made breakfast? either way, a cat’s nose had quite an uncanny power to trace a snack to its source. perhaps if he looked cute, he could receive a treat.   or at the very least, a couple well deserved pats. 

Tikki has seen it time & time again with each Ladybug. Yet Marinette was different about how she balanced her time depending on all the challenges she took head-on. She stayed optimistic through it all no matter how bad things seemed to go even when she was close to becoming akumatized.  When Marinette snapped at her she turned to the side to avoid facing her. She wasn’t mad at her not in the slightest because she was aware that being a superheroine wasn’t the easiest thing to handle. However through all their ups & downs whether Marinette was herself or Ladybug Tikki firmly held onto her word to her fellow kwami that day that Marinette was the best Ladybug she had served. 

She remained silent as she thought of ways to encourage her holder to stay positive despite all the stress that was consuming her in both parts of her life right now. Yet when she heard Marinette apologize for snapping at her she softly smiled to herself as she hugged Marinette’s cheek. Even if Marinette couldn’t get the right words out for a proper apology the kwami was quick to forgive her. After all, there was no need for her to be upset with her since it was obvious how stressed she was. Regardless she loved Marinette very much and would remain by her side until the end of time. 

❝  I know Marinette. But the sooner we get started on these projects the further we’ll clean off this large plate. Besides, you know I’ll help you every step of the way.  ❞  

  “ i was thinking we could head to the flash museum today ? “ there was too much excitement in her voice, for it not even being eight in the morning yet. a forkful of waffle noisily makes it’s way into walli’s  mouth, still partially chewing even as she goes on. “ i mean, unless  you wanna take it easy. it’s your first day. we could just -- watch movies, or something. “

              or, well. marinette could. walli was too keyed up with excitement              -- it’s not often she gets to boast about the flash to people who              literally know nothing. why would she want to stay in all day              when this is her prime time to strike.
