Marinette squealed in fright, scrambling around her room, grabbing her pictures and piling them into her arms. On her bed, Juuno sighs as he watches her dash around, trying to hide her crush from the coming guest. "You already confessed to him," he voices aloud, "surely you don't need to hide your interests anymore."

"Belle Bleue confessed to him!" Marinette snapped, pulling open a drawer in her desk and setting the pictures in. "He doesn't know I'm her! And that I, I..." Her face went red, Marinette trying to fight off a squeal. "You just had to remind of that, didn't you?!"

Juuno rolls his eyes and shakes his head. "Marinette," he tuts softly, "a peacock doesn't fret. Or frazzle. We hold ourselves regally. This right here," he waved to her, "this isn't very regal."

"Well," she snaps, jumping up to grab some of the higher photos, "I'm not Belle Bleue right now."

He frowns. "You are Belle Bleue. I don't make her regal and poised. That's all you."

"Yeah right," she huffs. As if to back her claim, she gave a startled squeak when she slipped and fell to the floor. She shoots Juuno a look, silently pressing, See?

Leaning forward, Juuno asked, "Why don't you just confess to him?"

"No!"

"You don't want too?"

"No! I, I just... I get nervous ok!" Getting up, she shoved the last of the pictures into her vanity. "And it... it doesn't feel right, like time wise, you know?"

Eyeing her, Juuno gave an agreeable hum. He supposed he could see her reason. These two chicks could certainly use some more time together. It would certainly strengthen their bond. Giving her an encouraging smile, Juuno floated down, lightly touching her cheek. "When you feel it's time, don't be afraid to show your colors. Be bold, be proud, and be sure of yourself. You are a peacock, miraculous or no. You are beautiful and true. And he will be flattered by your affections."

Blinking, she tentatively asked, "He will?"

"He should be," Juuno said, grinning. "Many fall for the beauty of a peacock, but few can claim their hearts. It's a high honor to have a peacock display for you."

She snorts, giving him a light poke. "That sounds more like olden day stuff."

"It's true!" he insists. "Even now in this century, there's nothing more charming and wonderful for someone to find that they had flattered and charmed the greatest beauty in the world, that that beauty saw their own, saw it lovely enough to share their colors and make their interest known." Juuno sighs wishfully. "I never tire of such confessions. They're always so beautiful." Juuno started to tear up.

"Alright, alright," Marinette eased, cupping the kwami.

She spared one fast look around her room, satisfied to see it bare. "So you..."

"Will be on your loft watching movies," Juuno reassures. With a grin, he adds, "And I'll have a bowel of blueberries to keep me company!"

"And..."

"Marinette," he chirps, shoving her thumb, "I'm over five thousand years old. I know how to hide."

"I know, just..."

"Nervous," he finishes.

She shrugs.

He floats up and plays with her bangs, lightly tugging them. "It'll be fine," he promises. "I feel like it'll be an eventful day. A good day." He drew away, grinning. "Have fun, and don't let your nerves get to you."

Marinette smiles back, only to stiffen when she heard the call that she had company.

Juuno flew towards her loft while Marinette ran for her trapdoor, eager to save her guest from her parents (and stop them from embarrassing her).

Sometimes Vixx has to wonder what was with humans and having such high rooms?

Personally she preferred being closer to the ground, the deeper the better. She liked feeling the earth close to her, like to feel it shift, liked to feel how steady it was. Rooms above the ground, that was more Juuno's territory. Him, Nooroo, Beea, and Tikki. They were at home in the air. They did not mind the height.

Vixx didn't care for it.

She and Wayzz both.

But, her curiosity and goal kept her from the slight discomfort.

As soon as Adrien had set his bag down, she flew out and hid under the vanity, grinning gleeful when she saw that the two humans were too caught up in themselves to notice her at all.

Why, she highly doubted the girl could even look away from him if she even wanted too.

Such was the curse of being around such a handsome fox.

A fox's beauty was enchanting.

Juuno and Beea may think they were some of the most beautiful, but Vixx personally found foxes to be the true charmers of the miraculous.

No one else had such a vibrant coats as her foxes.

But now wasn't exactly the time to gloat and preen over her chosen.

Her dear Kit had set up a challenge.

And Vixx loved challenges.

With a giggle, the fox dashed away to play.

"The move is a lot easier than you think," Marinette reassured, holding out one controller to Adrien. "They key is not panicking."

"Not panicking," he echoes, sitting down beside her.

"You just need to push in the right order, react, and..." Marinette trailed when she heard a soft snap. The two looked back just in time to see the string of soft colored triangles Marinette had crafted when she was nine fell to the floor. Marinette dove for it, confused as she picked up the string.

"Is it ok?" Adrien asked, coming up behind her.

"Yeah," she reassured, frowning as she glanced up at the wooden beam she wrapped it around. "It's... old? I, I guess it could use some new string or something." She flashed him an awkward smile. "Anyway, let's-" Her green divider went flying to the floor, making them both jump.

Staring at it with wide eyes, Marinette rushed out, "Let me check something real quick."

Before Adrien could answer, Marinette rushed to the stairs to her loft and hurried up it. Shooting her an odd look, he almost called out to her, only to pause when he heard a soft giggle.

One he's grown to know very well...

"Take your time!" he reassured, starting to scour the room for the fox kwami. He could've sworn he left her home! Crouching around Marinette's desk and looking around her miscellaneous items, he hissed, "Vixx I know you're there come out right now."

She of course didn't answer.

She just giggled on the other side of wooden beam, ripping Adrien's attention to it.

He narrowed.

That's where she was.

While he stalked around, hunting for his prey, Marinette frowned when she glanced over the rim of her bed. Juuno was on the shelf, fully immersed in Austenland. He didn't see his chosen frowning at him, his green eyes just stayed locked on her iPad. He didn't even spare a glance at the bowel of blueberries set beside him as he slowly drew one out to eat it.

He hadn't moved at all.

So what was going on?!

Humming, she clambers down, only to pause and stiffen when she saw Adrien snooping around her vanity, where she hid the pictures. "What are you doing?" she calls sharply, jerking the blond up.

Adrien quickly snatched of the green divider, turning to her sheepishly as he rubbed his neck. "Just picking this up!" he reazsured, chuckling weakly, setting it back on where it was before.

Marinette eyed him before shrugging. "Well, uh," she starts, waving to her desk, "lets get back to the game!"

"Yeah!" Adrien agreed, shooting one last leery look around the room.

Vixx had to be somewhere...

In the vanity Vixx sat, giggling and preening as she flipped through the best shots of her Kit, saving by the very human they were visiting.

She was so enamored with her Kit it was adorable. Utterly delicious.

It would have been so hilarious if her Kit had confessed to her.

Well, maybe one day.

Ear twitching, Vixx paused when she heard the game start, the two humans settling again. Grinning, she phased through the vanity and peeked at the two from behind the wooden beam.

Both of them were tense.

Her Kit rightfully weary.

The girl rightfully nervous.

Turning her violet eyes up to the bed, Vixx ponders what the girl could have up there. She had an idea... Keeping close to the wall, Vixx dove around the room, and flew along the steps up to the bed.

Her eyes locked onto the shelf, where someone very familiar sat, watching a movie.

A very oblivious someone.

And she so knew it.

She had found Belle Bleue.

Oh her Kit should've confessed.

Wiggling in excitement, Vixx dove by and sat right next to Juuno's bowel of blueberries, plucking one up and nibbling on it as she turned to what he was watching. "I don't recognize this movie," she comments.

"Austenland," Juuno answers, not tearing his gaze from the screen. "The girl there? Jane. She is a huge Jane Austen fan and goes to this Austenland to experience life there, fall in love and..." Juuno stiffened. Then slowly turned to Vixx.

She gave him a toothy smile, taking a daring bite of a blueberry in front of him.

Juuno started to honk in surprise, only for the fox to grab him and haul him down to the pillows below.

Beneath them, the two humans jumped at the sound and looked up to the bed in alarm.

Meeting each other's eyes, they rushed out, "I didn't hear anything!"

Blinking in surprise, they both chuckled sheepishly as they looked away.

Marinette wondered just what was Juuno doing up there?

Adrien though, he could not wait to get his hands on Vixx.

She was going to have nothing but bitter tomatoes for the rest of the week.
