"Because that was the main concern here..."

Is this a dream? It doesn't really feel like one, and she's not sure why she'd be dreaming about this particular scenario.

The fact that Tikki is laughing is good thing though, right? Usually she does that thing with her face when she's upset...

It's Adrien that shatters whatever train of thought she was about to zoom off on, and she realizes with a start that he's hugging her. There's little time to react before he's pulling away again, but she does manage to reciprocate the gesture at least.

"I am! And I don't know... It's something I've been wondering since I found out Chat was here." Which is Adrien, but she didn't know that at the time!

"I'm sure it's fine!"

[modelcivilian]

"It was for me and I'm sure some parts for you."

Come on; he has bore witness to Marinette's stuttering too, good golly.

It felt nice to get the hug back, but goodness, he's rubbing his hair frantically.

"Gah...! This isn't good!" But, if he stops to think about it. "Maybe... maybe when he akumatizes someone and sees that we don't appear, he gives up? Or what if we go back and he's taken over Paris??"

[doodlebuginette]

"Okay, fair enough~"

Most people have born witness to Marinette's stuttering, after all.

The hug is nice, though she kind of wishes it was happening under better circumstances.

When he speaks up again, Marinette just stares at him. It's not as though she hasn't been wondering the same thing, but they really need to stay calm. Or... as calm as they can be with things the way they are.

"Adrien, it's okay. Or it's going to be okay! Surely he won't keep akumatizing people when he realizes we're not there." Right? "We'll figure it out."

[modelcivilian]

"Will it really? I don't mean to doubt you, My... a-ah, wait..."

This was Marinette. She was his Lady, but also his Princess. And now that he thought about it... haha, Bugniette was a fairly accurate nickname. Wait, not the time...

"... A-Anyway, we can only hope, right? I mean, whatever he gets out of our Miraculous, he can't get from the others?"

So Rena Rogue, Carapace, and Queen B could handle it?

[doodlebuginette]

"Yea, I-" Oh. It's really just a little odd to hear him calling her that now, and it's probably written all over her face.

Fortunately, the awkward moment passes quickly enough and then they're back to the conversation.

"That's what I was thinking!" She hasn't the faintest idea of why he even wants their Miraculous, but she wants to believe that the man will at least be decent enough to leave people alone when he realizes his actions are pointless.

"What do you think he wants them for, anyway?"

[modelcivilian]

Staring at her for a moment, he wanted to say she knows... but she doesn't.

He went home for a brief period, but he doesn't know if she did. He thinks someone would've told him or he would've heard somehow. It seems to him - whatever point he's now from - that she knew, but Marinette before him did not.

"... Honestly, no idea. I just know he needs them both."

[doodlebuginette]

She's honestly lost count of the number of times she's tried to imagine what Hawkmoth needed their Miraculous for. But really, she has no idea. Which is honestly not comforting at all.

But she's trying to stay positive about all of this!

"I'm sure we'll figure it out." She's not sure how just yet, but... there's still time to work on that. Right?

[modelcivilian]

"Yeah, I'm sure..."

Though, he's not so sure he would. It seemed like everyone around him back home knew something, but... they didn't say anything. Why couldn't he be told anything? If he was told why, he would do better, but even that was silence.

But he can put on a nervous smile really well.

"... We just have to get home first."

[doodlebuginette]

"We always do, right?"

It's kind of their thing; figuring out how to side-step what would normally be less-than-favorable odds. This is... kind of like that. Maybe?

Or maybe if she believes it hard enough, that'll help. Either way, she's not going to just give up.

The smile she gives him is no less nervous.

"Yea... and before that, we have to win." Which... might be easier said than done.
