[It was a good thing she'd gotten here when she had. If it had just been normal beetles, it might not have been such a huge problem. Unfortunately, there was something much more dangerous lurking in their midst. Not wanting to cause a panic, Marinette had settled for taking more of an indirect role so far.]
Don't worry, everyone! As inconvenient as things may seem now, this too shall pass~
[And as much as she wanted to believe that, she was still keeping a close eye on the groups of kids who seemed determined to catch the silly insects.]
Jilted John
[Her posture and facial expression were practically screaming Ladybug, despite it being Marinette standing in front of John. She's clearly not happy, and not at all afraid of letting it show.]
Bullying Julie's new boyfriend is not going to solve anything, and will only cause you more problems in the long run.
[But she's not entirely heartless, and she can certainly understand feeling jealous when the object of one's affections starts paying attention to someone else.]
Perhaps, instead of trying to put them down, you might try reaching out to them - together or separately - to talk. It might not bring her back to you, but it might help you feel better.
King's Keeper
[Admittedly, she was excited about this one. Having listened to the cat's owner for a few minutes, she'd since been excused to address the feline himself.]
What's the matter, minou? Feeling a little burnt out? I'm sure your papa doesn't want to force you into doing something you don't really want to do.
[The aforementioned papa might have thought her a little odd if he were watching, given that she's speaking to the cat as she would a friend, but old habits die hard. How long had it been since she'd seen Chat, anyway?]
Mmm... maybe you just need a little break. [At that, she's sitting in the computer chair with the tabby on the desk in front of her.] Or maybe you need a new game~
Choose Your Own Adventure!
[What it says on the tin. Throw something random my way. Go nuts, lovelies~]
