♫ •||• This the ultimate showdown of ultimate history
[ Once a week, minimum. That's how many Akuma attacks she's experienced since arriving in Paris, roughly. She must've come right after one that first week because it took a while for the first, but after that it was non-stop. Even SHE'D been Akumatized once. It was almost like some rite of passage among their circle and some sort of twisted mark of status among adults.
Sure, people had a lot of negative emotions on an every day basis that could be exploited, but seriously, how much free time did Hawkmoth have to just sit around making Akumas once a week, meaning he was sitting around at LEAST once a week just waiting for "Bridezilla", who couldn't get her wedding cake on time, to get so cheesed off she was basically already shooting flames.
Or was it more like a bat signal? Spidey senses? Did he get somehow notified when someone was at their breaking point?
She isn't even surprised to learn that Lila has had several go's of it. The girl brings it on herself by being dishonest. It's inevitable that sooner or later she's either going to get called out or her own web of deceit is going to come back to bite her in the butt, yet she persists.
It isn't Lila today, but whoever it is their powers are more potent than anything Cat Noir and Ladybug have faced before, and it shows. Ladybug and Cat Noir seem to be struggling.
Hey Piper, don't worry! This is no sweat for Ladybug and Cat Noir. They'll come out on top just like always, just watch.
Those had been Alix's parting words right before they'd all split up to go home for the mandatory evacuation.
That's another thing: These attacks are so frequent they have DRILLS and EVACUATION PROCEEDURES at school. Piper doesn't mind all of this, but she IS a little amazed her dad hasn't sequestered her inside yet. The topic of superheroes is a bit touchy around their house, though... She just hopes the day never comes when her dad is the victim.
Anyway- she feels pretty worried at the moment, considering. She knows Adrien and Marinette are out there putting themselves, their lives on the line. She likes to think she's not more worried than usual just because she and Adrien are dating now- it's more the fact that this opponent's power set is so overwhelming -but it does feel a little like her nerves have been exposed.She might be keeping an emergency stash of camembert in the house for those surprise visits shut up
For now she's sitting on the couch, watching for updates on the news between texts or calls from their friends. ]

The blushing threatens to overwhelm her again when he kisses her forehead, the gesture charming and sweet.
Downright princely, damn it.
Before he can go, though, Piper catches his hand, looking up at him. ]
You guys will probably be able to finish up without me, but be careful.
[ She looks towards Sass, who's just finished swallowing the opposite end of the tomato- yes he ate the whole thing WHOLE. Snakes. ]
I guess this is adieu, petite couronne?
Only until next time. I do believe we will meet again. Until then, charmed to meet you, my lady.
[ Which makes her smile, and she can't help rubbing the kwamii affectionately on the head with the tip of a finger before she removes the bangle and returns it to its box. Then she uses her hold on Cat Noir's hand to place it there, nodding up at him with a smirk, full of trust. ]
Go get em, tiger.

Just for that, he’s going to lean in to kiss her again, this time on her lips, if only very quickly. Just because. He can??? And no one can stop him. Take that, universe.
He grins, ruffling her hair before he takes off with the box. ]
Thank you, ma chère. I knew we could count on you.
