Chapter 1: Reveal - Adrien/Chat & Marinette/Ladybug - Into the Twitterverse

It had all started out as some harmless fun. Chat had made the Twitter account as a way to reach out and connect to their fans and fellow Parisians. Ladybug had wrinkled her nose at it for a while until Chat finally convinced her to make her own. While Chat was much more interactive on his account, Ladybug was more subdued. Chat retweeted memes, jokes, and fanarts. He answered questions and made his own jokes. Ladybug mostly retweeted highlights of the Ladyblog or other news stations regarding their missions. Articles on how to stay positive and stories from victims.

Adrien kept her account set for any and all notifications. When it did go off, he was always slightly disappointed when it was just a retweet recapping the last battle or her greeting everyone a good day or happy holiday. It seemed others were growing bored or restless with her lack of content. Chloe, for one, complained that her best friend never answered any of her tweets. Alya didn't seem to mind. She got hits on the Ladyblog and the satisfaction that Ladybug was checking out her accounts.

So that's why when Adrien checked his latest notif, he was shocked to see a reply. It was simple. Ladybug agreeing with a follower's bemoaning on how her Chinese parents always insisted she help with making dumplings. Ladybug's response was a simple: The inescapable sticky flour. She'd followed it with an emoji with its tongue out.

The wheeze that came out of him was enough to have Nathalie look up from her tablet. "Adrien?" He shook his head and mumbled an apology.

His Lady was Chinese or part. She probably made dumplings with her family. She hated the texture of flour and eggs mixed together.

It was public knowledge. Something so simple. But it made his Lady more real to him. Helped color out the edges of her in his heart. He locked this new information away with his more three-dimension image of his love.

From then on, her tweets were more and more relaxed. She interacted with their fans. She never gave away too much information. Just enough to make Adrien crazy.

Her favorite color was pink. She liked flowers and poka-dots. She admired the work of Gabriel Agreste. She hated physics. (He tried to not let that break his heart too much.) Her favorite flavor for deserts was strawberry. She also liked mint ice cream.

Some of the little tidbits Adrien already knew and he tried not to be jealous of that information being shared with the whole world. He wanted to keep some of her to himself. Which, he supposed he actually did. No one else knew what she looked like when she was upset. Or noticed her cute little butt wiggle when she was excited. Or the way her nose scrunched when she was trying to figure out a puzzle. That belonged to him and no one else.

So, when he found one very pink Marinette Dupain-Cheng eating strawberry and mint ice-cream in the park near her house and she told him she was taking a break from a boring Saturday of physics homework and making dumplings with her Maman, he kept that information locked inside his heart, too.
