[Week 9]

[missmaladroite]

[Since Adrien's already in her room, she's going to seek out Jason as soon as the motive's up and wave him down]

[She looks Super Serial]

Jason! I need to talk to you.

[Or "we", rather.]

Comments

[antagonize]

[YEAH. HOW ABOUT IF INSTEAD OF STOPPING FOR HER, HE WALKS AWAY. FASTER. WALKING FASTER.

—But, no. He wants to be alone right now, but he's not going to be rude to her, either. It's not her fault that everything keeps happening so much, so he'll stop for her.]

... Yeah? Well, make it fast. I've got places to be.

[Like, his room. He sounds super duper done with everything, though. Sucks.]

[missmaladroite]

[Well, she can't fully blame him for that. The secrets and all. Truth be told, it doesn't sit well with her that he's apparently dead (and Alice can raise people from the dead?), and the whole thing was kind of sad, really.]

[But Marinette's bad at expressing herself on the best of days, and this is absolutely not the best of days, so she just tugs him by the arm]

Follow me. It'll be fast.

[NO IT WON'T]

[hopefully Adrien hasn't peed on her things while she was gone]

[antagonize]

[He doesn't think this is some master plan to kill him early during the week, so he doesn't really protest when she tugs him by the arm. Instead he opts to sigh at her, not quite up for this but going along with it nonetheless.]

Fine. Lead the way and just— make it snappy.

[Yeah. No. It definitely won't be snappy.

R.I.P. Marinette's bed while they walk.]

[when Marinette and Jason climb into the room, they will find that Adrien has angrily ripped apart all the furniture.

just kidding he's sitting at the desk reading the datapad with a frown on his face but he looks up at their arrival and quickly closes it. WHY WAS HE TOLD TO WAIT HERE WAITING IS BORING!!!]

Look what the Ladybug dragged in.

[ha ha. its a joke. because... yeah...... he tried]

[missmaladroite]

[it's clearly part of their plot to murder Jason. Adrien just ruined it by scratching up her bed and getting fur all over her clean clothes]

[Anyway, once Jason's inside with them, she has to get something out of the way first.]

[She takes out a swag eyepatch - one side is black, and the other side is specifically designed to easily be able to swap out gauze as the need requires. There's a bit of whatever soothing salve Marinette could find on it]

[And she's handing it over!!]

Here. Now put this on and don't rub at it.

[antagonize]

You need to work on your material.

[Wow, Adrien. What would Daddy Agreste say if he knew of this diabolical plot? Actually, he'd probably be disappointed at Adrien for hecking it up. How sad.

Jason is... apparently surprised by the eyepatch, though, judging by the way he stares at it dumbly for a second. Well. Alright. Time to stop staring and start moving.]

What, don't tell me you got tired of staring at the hole on my face? [Not that she would have seen the hole after the first night. He's kept it under some gauze, which he's messing with now to try on the eyepatch.] It's not that bad a sight, once you get used to it.

[Ba dum tshh, maybe. Looks like his transformation into a pirate is complete now.]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

And I'm the one who needs to work on my material?

[there's no hypocrisy here considering adrien has made 800 jokes about jason's eye himself... nope... none at all. he moves on before anyone can call him out on it:]

You know, it's polite to say "thank you" when getting a gift.

[by continuing to tease.]

[missmaladroite]

Trust me, I'm tired of looking at your face, period. [A little dryly. Okay, she found a speck of humour in this situation] And you, chaton, are just as bad as he is when it comes to jokes.

[Too late, she called him out. She manages a bit of a wry grin]

Just wear it and don't let it get infected. We don't have any doctors left on the ship, in case you've forgotten.

[and you don't want the kids first-aiding you]
