Me either. It seems like a lot of responsibility. [He doesn't know how they do it. Or how they really organize things.] They do their best. [Adrien doesn't seem to notice her struggle as she tries to talk to him. Maybe she's just having a hard time adjusting? They're both new. So he's just writing it off to that.] I don't know what that is but it makes sense.
[Adrien rubs at the back of his neck, offering a sheepish smile.] Good. [He tilts his head giving a little nod.] That's just how it works I guess.
[He's not bothered by this or the way she looks at him when he just stares at her. Maybe she hadn't meant to say it? Was that another strange habit from her home? It seemed kind of universal at least the words were but maybe their meaning wasn't?] Oh.. Uh no. No it's okay! I didn't mind I just didn't understand for a minute is all. [The blond gives a little shrug of his shoulder.] I just wasn't sure if you were just like calling me a good boy or it was some thing you say whereever your from that has a different meaning or something? I really don't mind.
Maybe I do. [Adrien is comfortable and confident with reassuring her. At least he hopes that he is.] I don't know what made you upset but I'm here and I'll do my best to make you feel better. [Maybe she was just homesick? He didn't know what he could do about that exactly but he would do his best to make their temple like a home. He would learn to help her, the little things she likes, what makes her smile. These things are as important as learning spells and how to defend her. Adrien takes his duties as her shinki very, very seriously. When he speaks again there's a noticeable hint of relief in his voice.] It makes me feelgood to hear you say that, Marinette.
[If he were human he'd be pouting.] You're so cruel to me. I'm just trying to be the best shinki I can be but noooo- [His words were full of sarcasm.] Are you saying it's different when I'm human then? Interesting. [Adrien hums softly.] It's good that you're not - I'd be upset if I made you have hives or something. [As he reverts, the scarf around her suddenly becomes warm and bright light before Adrien is standing in from of her, human again - grinning and happily, his hands resting on her shoulders.] Of course, it will. [Gently, he's moving to take hold of her hand.] Let me take you home.
