⭐️ we now interrupt your regularly scheduled ship
[ “Your demons might not look like ours”?
Cat Noir snorts quietly to himself as he retraces his steps back to Rapunzel’s house. The air is calm; the akuma dealt with, but thinking back on it, he wonders what he even meant when he said that.
Even though he doesn’t know, now he can’t help but think about the demons Rapunzel might be facing, and he finds himself trying to hold her to her promise, despite the fact that it means going out of his way to do so. He’s not supposed to give any one particular civilian special attention, sure, but... he did tell her he would come back.
He would hate to disappoint a new fan.
When he arrives, he can see the moonlight catch on her hair, which is still as ridiculous in length as it had been before. Distantly, he wonders what she might be staring at—but heck with it, he’s just going to pole himself upwards and find out. ]
Hey! You’re still up.

No rush to respond! I know you said you're taking a break. The mood struck, though.
[Do you see this smirk? Challenge. Friggin'. ACCEPTED.
You know, once they actually make it to the tower. Because that is a LOT of open space around it, and yes she could use a lift to get there probably.
So, regarding his hand for a second, before finally smiling at the gentlemanly gesture and placing hers in his. She might or might not have colored a bit in the cheeks, freckles becoming more pronounced as she did.
Please don't call her out on it HA HA]
*half a year later*
Finding a semi-secluded spot away from late night tourists, he drops them down in the shadows, looking for her reaction now that they're closer. ]
Well?
[ He gestures -- ]
There are stairs, but also lifts. They only get you so far, though. We'll have to do some... superheroing to get to my favorite spot.
