Video (and optional Action)| UN: Ladybug

[de_evilise]

[ Here's an unfamiliar face to probably many. A girl in a red and black spotted leotard with matching mask is grinning into the video. From her surroundings, it looks like she's somewhere outside the city. ]

Hey everyone, Ladybug here. Got a question for you. I was out patrolling the area outside the city and came across some nasty creatures chasing after - [ She turns the feed around to show an injured Korok, sitting a short distance away with a bandage she had tied around its leg. ]

One of these little guys. I personally haven't ever seen one before, but I thought it'd be a good idea to ask around in case someone else has come across the - [ She's distracted by a growl from out of view of the camera, and she scowls. ]

Persistent things aren't you.. [ Mutter. She pulls her yoyo out and turns to prepare to go on the defense, though she tosses one last comment. ]

Gotta run - but if anyone's seen these guys around or knows anything about them, drop a message here, I'll get right back to you!

[ OOC: unless someone happens to be outside the perimeter as well and comes across them, that's a thing also. ]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[ He hasn't asked anything TOO incriminating, so it was safe to answer at least. ]

Akuma... they resemble black butterflies. They're corrupted creatures under Papillion's influence, so when he finds a target, he has one of his akuma possess them to do his bidding.

[ Usually to try and steal her and Cat Noir's Miraculous. She's momentarily surprised by that reaction though, and grins, blushing a bit. ]

Ahaha, well..it is pretty useful, but it's better to not have to use it at all.

[ A little more guarded here, she shakes her head. ]

No no, the Miraculous is... it's my power. The items I make through the Miraculous are called Lucky Charms.

ok yikes, way WAY creepier than i was expecting

[ Cisco is not about that whole possession thing. Maybe it's because of the whole thing with Grodd mind-controlling people into his puppets, maybe it's just traces of his Catholic upbringing, maybe it's a fun mix of the two. Either way... suddenly he's glad this Papillion person isn't here. ]

and are they magically delicious?
(bet no one's made that joke before. sorry. low-hanging fruit.)

[de_evilise]

You said it.

[ She was just as glad that Papillion wasn't here. And ... that joke is just.. it only makes her -GROAN-. And gets The Face(tm). ]

... that's as bad as something my partner would say.

[franciscoramon]

[ Cisco is still only communicating by text but suffice to say he is delighted and laughing his head off at that resentful expression. ]

i would hope that ANYBODY who great up in a world with marshmallowy breakfast cereals would make that joke.

that's cool tho
we should talk sometime about salvaging and powers and stuff
i'm gonna text you the address of my workshop and if you ever wanna come by, i'm there a lot of the time
like actually a kind of absurd amount of the time.

[ True to his word, Cisco texts the address. ]

[de_evilise]

[ She grins at the offer, and makes note of the address. ]

I'd like that. I'll make sure to stop by sometime then. [ She pauses. ]

Let me guess, you sleep where you work?

[franciscoramon]

haha, no, i mean, sometimes i'll accidentally fall asleep on my desk waiting for some data to compile, and i nap on the couch sometimes, but i've got an actual home and stuff, and i do go there to sleep most nights.

i just meant an absurd amount of time during the day...
i don't have much of a social life.
or really just a life.

[de_evilise]

[ Aaha, social lives were overrated. ...*cough* ]

A desk isn't very comfortable to sleep at. [ She knew that one for a fact! ]

Your work keeps you that busy?

[franciscoramon]

no they are not

work, and other projects too.
i just like making stuff.
i'm used to keeping pretty busy.

[de_evilise]

Interesting.. [ She was going to have to swing by his place and see for herself though. ]

Well, try not to fall asleep at the desk TOO much. [ She ohs though. ]

Speaking of busy, I should get this little guy back.
