[ She has the feeling that LB probably gives him more credit than that, but she isn't here to judge either way, and she knows first hand that love and trust don't always convey through actions and words, the way that they need to. They both do.
Heavier thoughts for another time.
They manage to make record time (ha ha get i-) to the tower, and once inside Piper- Charmeur lets Cat Noir more or less take lead for the moment. He has an established reputation here, so his word is going to have more clout than hers. It's not even a matter of self-confidence, just fact. He tells them what they need and Nadia and the rest of the crew agree to put their curiosity about Charmeur aside to deliver.
That's the easy part out of the way. Now comes the challenge: Performing in front of thousands of Parisians...
True, Piper can't actually SEE them, but damn, that doesn't make this any less intimidating. While the crew scrambles to get equipment in place and prepare for all channels to broadcast the same programming, Piper stands next to Cat Noir, hands slack at her sides, watching all of this.
Actually that's not completely accurate. Mostly her eyes are glued, practically unblinking at the wall of television monitors, wondering about all the stupid little things that could go wrong if she's got the wrong idea about her powers, if she can't be compelling enough, if she picks the wrong song- ]
