Prompt: (I found this in my notebook at like two this morning) Marinette becomes undumb after the events of .
~Enjoy!
Marinette paced her room, the idea she had been chewing on had been tugging at her brain for a while, and it only made more since the more she thought on it.
Tikki was hovering over by her desktop, munching on a cookie and listening to Marinette as she thought it over.
"Well, I know I've probably said it four times in the past hour, but it just makes since right? He's never there when there's an attack, and when he is, I can't find Chat! They're both blond, and are the same height, so that has to narrow it down a bit as well. And the feathers thing, that's big. Oh!" Marinette can't believe she hadn't thought of it before, racing to her computer to Google the answer to the most important question on her mind.
"I hope you're not planning on Goggling 'Who is Chat Noir', Marinette," Tikki tested, very sure the crazed look in her miraculous wielder's eyes was no good sign.
"What, pfft, no, that's crazy, Tikki, I'm just gonna Google how common bird allergies are!" Marinette blinked a few times after hearing the sentence she had just said.
"Tikki, I think I'll just ask Chat Noir tonight," Marinette hummed, pushing herself away from the computer to leave the room, going slowly as she thought about what she just did.
That night, Ladybug found Chat before he found her.
"My Lady, it's always good to see you," he purred, turning to face her fully with his cheeky grin.
"Chat, I have a question, and you need to answer it honestly, okay?" She asked, fixing him with a hard glare, sending shivers down the boy's spine.
"Do you know how rare an allergy to feathers is?"
"Uh, no?" Chat answered, raising his eyebrow to look at the girl.
"It's super rare, and while I know you have an allergy to feathers, it's very rare that another boy of your height, hair color and stature to have the exact same rare allergy, right, Adrien?" Ladybug placed a hand on her hip and glared at the boy, her eyebrows furrowed with intensity.
Chat Noir only laughed, shaking his head as he took in the serious girl, "well, you figured it out, my lady!"
"Well, curiosity killed the cat... 's disguise," Ladybug laughed, she couldn't quite wrap her head around the secret she had learned, only fully believing the boy when he released his transformation and waved to the girl.
"You know what they say though: Satisfaction brought it back," he gave her a charming wink as she nodded, considering the information.
"Well, I hope you're satisfied, kitty." And a pink light surrounded them both as she released the cat out of the bag.
