The Badass Ladybird of Gotham

Why Marinette is officially, legally, and truly NOT allowed to bite her lip

"You're ok. You're safe here, and I won't let anything happen to you, I promise. I'll keep you safe." She looked up with a sad face.

"But what if you can't, if I see him again I might-" she looked so broken.

"I might lose myself completely. The headlines may have said he was a hero, but he was no hero. I watched him kill someone over a jealous obsession over someone." That someone was her. Thanks Plagg, like I didn't already know that. She's obviously hurt by this. I made her look me in the eyes.

"Marinette, if you even see him again, point him out, and I'll murder him myself." she giggled and replied,

"Adrien Agreste, top model. Pretty hard to miss Dami." Noted the name. I'll send it to Tim and I'll whoop this guys ass before he can-

"Damian, after we took his Miraculous, we had to wipe his memory. Within a week, his memory should have returned. It was a spell of sorts, to keep him from going after the Master of the Miraculi. That's the main reason I'm here. I needed somewhere that I knew, yet, somewhere undetected that he could not find me. I basically ran away instead of fighting and I- I can't see him again." she was practically sobbing again. If I ever meet this asshole, I'll paint the walls with his blood. That's a promise. Good kid. I'll help. Butt out Plagg.

"If you see him, call me and I'll be there. Ok?" she sniffled and nodded. I felt her arms weakly around my torso, I hugged her back and felt her erratic breaths slow.

"Mari, father gave us a two hour delay to get to school we have to leave at 10 and now it is... 9:15. We have 45 minutes. How long do you need to get ready?" she wiped her nose,

"I really only need 20 minutes." I nodded and she relaxed once again.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"MARINETTE, WE LEAVE IN FIVE MINUTES ARE YOU OK?"

"Master Damian, she can get herself ready I trust. You gave her twenty minutes and se is using up all of that time to make herserlf presentable." Alfred said sternly.

"Alfred, I wasn't trying to rush her, her ribs are injured and she has a rather large cut on her back." he whipped his head torwards the boy.

"She has what? When did this happen?"

"You overlooked the large gash on her back. The bandages cut into it and last night I replaced it and she's fine. She doesn't ask for help and it's annoying."

"Sir, If I may, you are one to talk." I scowled at the man and saw her come down the stairs.

"You look peppy" I grumbled.

"Maybe I just woke up on the umm- right side of the bed, if you know what I mean." I felt my face go hot damn. She skipped over to the limo and got in before Alfred could get the door.

"She's quite amusing Master Damian." I scowled and got in the car. Alfred started it and pushed the button to raise the backseat divider.

"While you do look attractive with the scowl Dami, your smile literally brightens up a room." I put my arm around her, and gave her a side hug.

"Thanks habibti. But I am an emotionally detatched person who dulls the pain of existence with your presence." she gave him a funny look.

"For one, according to last night you are not an emotionally detatched person," his hand went to the back of his neck "What does habibti mean?" At this moment I'm dead. My will: Grayson will care for Titus, Father can have-
