Ladybug finally landed on her balcony, noticeably late for Chat's movie night with Marinette. Noticing her room lights remained off, she smiled. Chat Noir must not have shown up yet. She jumped down and de-transformed. Her kwami immediately flew to the plate of cookies as she closed the window behind her. Her Kwami froze on top of the plate in a panic, “...Mari-” she looked past Marinette. Marinette slowly turned, eyes widening to meet another set of bewildered green eyes. Her- Her stray cat- He sat on her bed, sporadic eye movement between her and her kwami. He stared. At Marinette. Marinette and her Kwami. /At Marinette and her kwami/ His throat dried, coughing out the dry popcorn he was catching. Words caught in his mouth, mumbling only her name between panicked coughs.
