They're amazing! I can't believe there are actually real super heroes! I wish I could do something half as incredible.
[ Instead, she's forced to keep her powers to herself. If her mother knew what she'd done she'd lock her away and never let her leave the house again, she's so convinced the world is evil. Somehow, though, Rapunzel KNOWS that if she could just make her see that there are good people in the world, good things she could do with her powers...!
But, no. If she hadn't changed her mind when the world was a smaller place, no way would she change it now with so many more people in it, and super villains running around... ]
[ She's just going to pretend to know what that stuff means but Jesus Christ she's never heard of any of that stuff. Mag articles?? Tabloids?? What are those?? And- ]
[ Adrien stares, blinking once, then takes the time to actually navigate to Alya’s blog so he can copy its link. He then pastes it right into a response to Rapunzel, so that all she has to do is tap on it.
[ Not on purpose, but a couple of curious pokes at the underlined text surprises and rewards her with a pop up window. With a surprised "Oh!" she stares at the colorful page loading before her eyes, and then her eyes widen with wonder and excitement.
He raises an eyebrow, but otherwise lets it slide, especially given the rest of the message. Seriously, Rapunzel, he’s like 15 and you’re making him feel Old. ]
Yup!! My friend alya, shes a big fan of them see... so she writes about them all the time, for civilians like you and me.
She updates pretty often, so you can read back on her older stuff, or just keep checking back!
Sounds like you did a little more than just neglect a healthy sleep schedule.
But really, everything alright?
(ooc: I'm thinking maybe a new school year, a new transfer student/classmate, and they got partnered up for a project at some point (hence them having one anothers' numbers)? Maybe his texting her was a sleep-deprived misfire. LMAO

Oh yeah? You think it'd be alright if I came to cheer you on? I never learned fencing, but I've always wanted to learn more about it. 😊
And... well, I know it's pretty forward to offer, but if you ever want some help with the sore part I can. My siblings and I learned some different massage techniques to help deal with sore muscles from our wu shu training with baba.
Well!! That’s... a pretty good point and i’d hate to get your hopes up and all 💦 But i did teach my chinese class once as part of a thing for hero’s day, and... i... think my dad liked the results????
Teaching helped me think more critically about my moves and how to improve them. So maybe it would benefit both of us!
[ By now, Adrien’s dressed himself and everything and is probably sitting at that same long-ass table, in front of a cold breakfast, wondering if his dad’s going to join him.
He glances at his phone with a sigh, scrolling through their text history out of boredom while waiting. He really did misfire and cover it up nicely!
Now seems like a great time to ruin it. ]
Btw, uh, how mad would you be if i told you that i didnt actually mean to text u at first?? Jw
After "It Feels so Right to be Here With You"
will i ever stop comment spamming you (no) (1/2)

No, I had no idea! I think mother-
Stop.
Sheltered, remember? I don't really get to watch a lot of TV-
Nope. ]

Wow, he came dangerously close to typing that, but thankfully catches himself, laughing quietly (and just a little nervously). ]
Right??? We parisians are pretty used to them by now, but they’re still pretty awesome 😘
(2/2)
which truthfully isn’t hard for him— ]What happened? Are you ok?
Re: (2/2)
I'm fine! I just happened to be there when they came through. I met Cat Noir, though. I'm still freaking out!
Just a little! I can't find any books about them, though. You'd think there'd be at least a dozen by now??
[ Guess who hasn't ever been on the internet???? ]
no subject
Books?? Nahh. You might be able to find some mag articles and tabloids and stuff, but idk about a book
If you wanna read about them, you should check out the Ladyblog!
[ note: remind alya to thank him for this later ]
no subject
What's the Ladyblog?
no subject
Will she be able to figure that out, though? ]
no subject
Welcome to the internet, Rapunzel. ]
HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!

JK!! It’s just a link. Did it work?

She totally took it seriously, but-! ]
A link? Like... a chain link? Was it supposed to show me Ladybug and Cat Noir?? That's what I see now! This is the Ladyblog you mentioned?

What about you? you must be a pretty big fan, if you knew about this?
no subject
[ HE CATCHES HIMSELF TOSSING IN THE HEART-EYES EMOJI and has to delete it. He has to be Low Key^tm about his obsession, ok ]
Also alya tends talk about her blog a lot, so it’s hard not to know about it
pick your poison(s)
2. Considering how late i stayed up last night and how horrible I feel, I look amazing
3. I legit just meowed out loud at a cat on campus. Realized right after that there were people around me. They looked at me funny.

[ BIIIIIG yawn as Adrien’s phone buzzes, and he checks it, still groggy as he tried to will himself to get ready for the day.
But hang on, that’s WAY too properly typed to be from Nino. Did he really......? ]
no subject
Oh i’m fine now!! Or. Better?? At least? 🤔
i think.|
[ He’d admit it was a misfire, but what if she gets offended or something? In jest or not, it’s just too early to deal. ]
Sorry to bug ya so early

Must've been some party? Ooooor was this a last minute study session?

Still sore. Skipping gym this morning but ill be there later for ms. b’s lecture

How... does he even respond to that??? It takes a while of awkward staring before he can resume typing. ]
Wow! I haven’t done wu shu, but that sounds. Useful|
no subject
Of course you can come though. I’d even be happy to teach you a thing or two if you want
no subject
It is. I carried some of it over to when I started playing volleyball, anyway.
[ The last part has her arching an eyebrow, surprised. ]
Really? I mean, don't get me wrong. I'd love to learn! It's just that your schedule's pretty full up isn't it? You're sure you'd have the time?
no subject
Teaching helped me think more critically about my moves and how to improve them. So maybe it would benefit both of us!
no subject
[ She can definitely appreciate a logic-based approach to creative problem solving. ]
If you're sure, then... I'd love that! And if you're ever looking for more practice, I'd love having someone else to speak Chinese with.

[ She doesn't know how to tell him she was hoping for an excuse to talk more anyway, sooooooooooo she'll just keep that to herself.
Can never have too many friends. ]
Besides, I'm kinda flattered you kept my number. ;)
