It had taken all of three akuma fights before Chat Noire and Ladybug had given in and told each other their identities. Finding out that they actually knew each other and were friends in school had been awesome, and while patrols had originally started as a way to help keep the city safe, they had quickly devolved into an opportunity to talk about their friends.

Well, really, one mutual friend of theirs.

That both may or may not have a crush on.

"Did you see Marinette today?" Chat gushed as soon as they met up on a roof.

"What part?" Ladybug asked, plopping onto a convenient brick outcropping and wiggling eagerly.

"She was rescuing a cat out of a tree and got stuck." Chat grinned, pulling her phone out of one of her pockets. "I got it all on video, of course."

"And you didn't TEXT it to me?! For shame!" Ladybug put a hand over his heart. "I thought we were friends!"

"I wanted to show you in person, of course! Now budge over while I bring up the video."

Ladybug laughed, scooting over and pulling Chat in close as she tapped her way to the video and started it playing.

There were worse ways to bond than talking about how amazing the girl they both had crushes on was.
