[Mostly she just wanted to give the ones in charge the benefit of the doubt, because sometimes that was more important than anything else. But she didn't feel like nitpicking it right now.] Yea. Maybe if they had more people who were devoted to helping out with new people, things might be different. But from what I've seen, that just isn't the case. [Not that she could really pass judgement. It was probably better than she could do in the same situation.] Ha, yea. Like... a surprise physics test!
[Marinette is just chuckling at that. He was right, though. She didn't want to be a hypocrite, so she wouldn't be. It was as simple as that.] You're right. I won't be. [Here's hoping it really was as simple as that. As much as she wants it to be, Marinette knows that sometimes things are a bit more complicated than they might seem at first.]
Oh yea. [And she'd been hoping that maybe he wouldn't notice her momentary slip, but it seemed like he had, and now she felt like she'd have to explain the thing at some point. Or maybe she could just wait until he remembered on his own? Sure. That might work. At the very least, she's not going to say a thing unless he asks. So there's that.]
You're learning already. Good boy! [She's just smiling happily. It was probably good that he'd accepted the truth about her stubbornness so early on. It certainly made things easier, if nothing else.] Not all the time. We certainly wouldn't want all the silly thank yous to go to your head. [That would just be ridiculous, of course.]
Thank you. [Maybe it would have been easier if she could have just told him, but that didn't matter right at the moment. Would she be able to tell him later? It was possible, she supposed. Would she want to? Maybe.] That might be nice. And I am. That wasn't the part I was upset about. [And yes, she felt the need to point that out again because she didn't want him to ever doubt it.] You're right. This is the biggest decision I've ever made. [It made sense for her to be emotional.]
What other reason would there be? [she could think of a few, but it was easy to tease him when he was like this.] Is that what I should think of when I think of you? Soft and comfy? [And now she was just being ridiculous, but he'd kind of started it. Besides, she knew what he was made out of. But she couldn't just blurt that out.] I do like it. Very much. [Was that weird? Maybe. It occurred to her that they probably needed to figure out where home was before too much longer. But for the moment she was content to sit here.]
