Owner Pose
Marinette DuPain You could fit the entirety of Marinwtte's room in Adrien's bathroom. Ans probably still have room left. And it's exactly as it was when she moved. She hasn't changes the color of a single thing.

Of course, that's hard to tell through the large, fuzzy throw rug shr's put down on the hars floor. the desk that has comic book hero clings sticking to it. The colorful bedding she has, the posters of movies and pictures of friends ans family that hang on her walls interspersed with different fabrics in differrnt colors or random designs she's pinned up. The bedside table holds the Ladybug and Chat Noir dolls she made as well as an alarm clock. Her floor has notebook, books and shoes in random spots. Her laundry has been tossed into a pile... mostly a pile. The curtains are drawn shut, blocking out the light, and keeping anyone from peeking in...

"No more using the window..," is stated as Mari pushes the door open and motions for him to enter.
Adrien Agreste A chuckle. "No more using the win...dow.." Adrien's words trail away as he looks baout the room, and even though it's not pink it's so warm and welcoming and Marinette thta... it's not like he hasn't seen it before as Chat, but this was different. He was here as Adrien, and it felt so wonderful that he felt out of place and like never leaving.

Adrien steps fully into the room, smiling at the personal things and... the dolls.

"I remember these. You know... You told me Puppeteer took control of me but... I remember more about my time as an actual akuma than I do as one of their side-effects. I don't even remember the fight with Dark Cupid. I was trying to talk to you, got hit, then you throw me at him..." Adrien says as he collects the doll of himself.
Marinette DuPain Marinette closes the door and smiles as ue looks around the room. Walking up to him, she holds the second croissant put to him.

"Dark Cupid... That was... I wasn't at all sure kissing you was going to work."

In the room, she kicks her shoes of, walks over and flops back onto her bed.

"And your a much better fight than I am."
Adrien Agreste Adrien smiles, finishing the first croissant as he sets the toy back down. Collecting the second, he bites into it without hesitation. He's nodding to her words about Drak Cupid until they sink in and suddenly he's no longer nodding.

"Wait... You... kissed me?" Pause. "As in... you were ...Ladybug? And I was Chat... and you... And I missed it?! Aw, man! My luck is the worst!"

Becasue that's his take away. Said as he drops his head back, knees bending like he's about to collapse.
Marinette DuPain The exaggerated lamenting makes Marinette laugh. She rolls on to her stomach and looks up at him. "I did. I kissed you as Flatline too."

Pushing up on her knees, she smirks. "Does my Chston need a kiss from Ladybug? Alright. That'll be your prize if you beat me tonight."

"You can have that, by the way." She motions towards the Ladybug doll. "So even when you're away on shoots, I'm always with you."
Adrien Agreste Hearing her laugh is the best. Adrien straightens, a broad smile on his face for Marinette.

"I... sort of.. remember that," he confirms of his time at Flatline before she's pushng up and offering him a challenge with a prize and there's the cat in him. The brightness to his eyes when he smiles lopsidedly and so fully. It's not the measured smile of a photoshoot, not the controlled conveys exactly what he wants smile of the model fooling hte world. No, this is Adrien's full smile.

Doll given to him, Adrien reaches back to run his finger tips on its face.

"Could the real one come by some shoots sometimes? If her schedule allows?" he asks, turning back to her, peering at her on her bed. OH, he's going tobeat her so throughly tonight.
Marinette DuPain And gods, does that smile do things to her.

It makes her feel all warm and tingle. Causes butterflies in stomach. Makes her forget how to breathe. And seems to cause a disconnect in her brain.

"Huh?" is said blankly. "Wha--Oh!" She takes a breath and wets her lips, blushing.

"Of course!," is said with a bright smile. "I happen to have it on good authority that her schedule is always clear for you."

Climbing off the bed, she stretches. "Mm. Maybe we should get that nap now, though. You're gonna need it for tonight."
Adrien Agreste "Oh, I am am I? Answer me this, do you even know where you're going?" retorts the cat in Adrien's clothing as he leaves the desk to 'stalk' toward Marinette by the bed.
Marinette DuPain "No. But that's oka--"Mari glances over at him, eyes widening and a smile appearing as she steps back to the bed. "I'll still beat you." Says the brave girl who immediately starts to try to climb over the bed to avoid her stalker.
Adrien Agreste "Uh-huh," Adrien says, toeing off his shoes because he is going to pounce on the bed to catch her and only as Chat are shoes allowed on the bed. Not because Chat's shoes are immune to tracking in dirt but because they don't really come OFF.

Magic.

"Should I let you Google Map it?" he asks as his shoes are off at the same moment he shrugs the jacket free to drop to the floor. Because jacket is just a touch restrictive for a...

POUNCE!
Marinette DuPain She had almost made it!

Being caught around the knees cause her to squeal, drop and giggle brightly.

"Of course! It's only fair, after all." Which seems to lose all seriousness when it's said through laughter and squirming to get free.

"Do I look like a cat toy to you?"
Adrien Agreste "Fine," Adrien allows as he pulls Marinette toward him across the bed, rumbling the sheets with her body.

"Fine. You can Google Map while I run. You're swinging's faster than my sprinting," he adds not bothering to keep his fingers from digging in and tickling.

"Pawsitively, M'Lady," Adrien quips, smirk out in full force.
Marinette DuPain Dragged to him, Marinette's eyes widen. He's stronger than he looks!

And then he's tickling and she's laughing and giggling while trying to smack-smack at his hands and scoot away. "I-is not!" is said through giggle fits.

She can't even retort to being a cat toy, she's laughing so hard.

"Aahh.. N-not..f-fair!"
Adrien Agreste He needed this sound, this sight. Her smiling, her laughing, her smacking and thrashing and he's not trying terribly hard to hold her now that he's drug her bodily toward him. His laughter joins hers before he just flops himself to his side next to her, bouncing on the bed a bit. His hair's a mess, falling carelessly abou this face and half in his eyes. His cheeks are flushed, and his smile is easy and open and relaxed.

"Alright. Alright. I'm done playing... furr meow." heh heh heh!
Marinette DuPain Dropping her head back to the bed, Mari's eyes close, lashes resting against bright pibk cherks as she pants. "Oh ... my god...." A vouple of moments to catch her breath and then her head rolls to the side and her eyes open. The smile she gives him is brilliant and full of love. "You're a brat," is teased before she rolls herself onto her side and scoots close enough to snuggle into him. "And I adore you."
Adrien Agreste He too has to catch his breath. Not because she tickled him but because he was laughing since she was laughing. One arm is flung over his head, they other rests on his stomach. He too turns his head to her, eyes opening and focusing on her face and her smile. The smile that melts everything.

You're a brat.

Adrien just grins.

And I adore you.

Adrien's grin turns into a sweet smile and her wraps an arm under Marinette's head and around her body. He too rolls slightly as she snuggles into him so she's pressing into his chest.

Adrien sighs on a soft almost purr-like hum.

Home.
Marinette DuPain He'll feel it. The way she relaxes fully in his arms.

One arm is tucked between them, the other draps itself over him and she inhales deeply before sighing.

Home.

Held, feeling safe and cherished... It's not long before Marinette's breathing evens out and she's sound asleep.
