Ladybuggin' Out
Who| Marinette and YOU
What| Marinette exploring Legion World after waking up
Where| All around Legion World, you can pick a location
When| After Whistling in the Dark plot
Warnings/Notes| N/A
Marinette had been shown around the ship already but that was when she was still in the wide-eyed stages of denial one found themselves in when they were spirited to another universe. She'd gone along with it, listened to the descriptions of different places, talked to them about that whole swearing an oath thing and had done it all pretty much on automatic.
Just because she was a superhero back home didn't mean she was prepared for all this so she'd spent her days in the Medbay and her days right after in a quiet state of shock, one that had apparently been mistaken for calm because of her capacity to still talk to people despite it.
It was only now after she was free to wander around alone that she started to come out of it a little, looking at everything with new eyes the second time.
"Wooow."
She had no one to really say it to but she was used to Tikki always being with her so thinking out loud was a force of habit.
"Woooooow."
That was really all she could say as she wandered from place to place and from thing to scientific-looking...thing. She put her hands on her cheeks and stared and let out a "woooow" at no one, and then walked onto the next thing. Whether it was the threshold gate hub, or the science labs, or the many habitats that had been built for everyone on board -- including one that had the Champ De Mars and the entire Eiffel Tower for her -- all she could do was stare wide-eyed and "woooow" at herself.
And maybe touch things she probably shouldn't touch. In a few places she even smushed her face against windows to look at the view of Earth or space outside.
"Woooooooow!"
People might possibly notice the new girl in any number of places and given all the 'wow'ing and the flight ring on her finger she was very obviously new.

Falling. On her butt. Like an idiot.
"Iii'm Marinette! I'm new."
She held out her hand to shake his and gave him an awkward little smile.
"At all of this," she added. "With the superheroing. And -- and space."
Totally new at the hero thing yep. Look at how flustered she is, she totally is not used to weird things happening in her life, nope. Just an ordinary girl.

Asking questions when everyone else seemed to know what was going on could be intimidating, but Tadashi was willing to take some of the heat off the other newbies if he could.
"Space is pretty cool though, huh?" he asked with a grin. "I didn't really plan on being an astronaut, but life is full of surprises."
no subject
It really was. It wasn't really something she'd ever thought about either, but now that she was here...
"I don't think I've ever seen as many stars before! Every time you look out a window." She added, "I'm from Paris. And it's pretty much the most beautiful city in the world but it is the city of light. Which actually has to do with it being the city of enlightment in history and not the lights, but it does still have a lot of lights and that means light pollution."
She loved her city but you couldn't exactly get a good view of the stars.
"And then there's the view of Earth, it's just so beautiful."

Mostly, he was indoors at night. And if he was outdoors, he was most focused on finding where Hiro had gotten off to than he was with looking up.
"It's a pretty great view," he agreed. "Makes me wish I was more of an artist."
no subject
Urgh, it was hard to find the words.
"Lost?" She paused. "Not lost, that sounds sad. More like when you're stuck in a big crowd that's shoving you around and you don't know where they're going to shove you."
Another pause.
"No, that isn't it, either. Everything's so...different. Alien. Except I guess we're more alien here than the people that are from this universe."
no subject
He wanted to go home so bad it ached sometimes. He tried to shake it off, no reason to inflict his homesickness on a teenager who was still reeling from her own unexpected journey.
"On the other hand, my friends are going to flip their lids when they found out I got to be an actual super hero and meet aliens and play with advanced technology, so..." He grinned and tilted his hand back and forth. "It evens out."
no subject
That wasn't necessarily a bad thing. It meant there was so much more that she was aware and even though it made her feel a little smaller, it was still beautiful. The bigness of the universe was beautiful.
"Does that make any sense?"

She pressed her fingers up against the window.
"In any case, it's beautiful. And I'm almost glad I'm here. I just hope they're right that we'll probably go back to the moment we left. I don't want my parents and friends to worry."
Her parents would be worried sick if time actually passed while she was gone.
