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.

Transitioning from one space future to another had, all things considered, been a bit less exciting for him.
no subject
"You can't stop trying to rain on my parade, can you," she said. "I don't care what you say, it's still exciting."
It's space!
"Why are you so unimpressed?"
You're the weird one, Grif. You weird, unexcited weirdo.
no subject
"I mean, when you're from Earth it's kind of exciting for the first day or so but then you figure out it's all just rocks and aliens."
It wasn't like he'd ever been a kid who got excited about things, right? That'd be hypocritical!
no subject
Like fashion! She wanted to see the kinds of clothes other worlds had. Maybe she could crib some ideas and take them home and they'd be so amazing and different than she'd become a world-famous designer just like she wanted.
"Maybe they have even better stuff than Earth!"
no subject
The fact that nobody liked the alien was an important detail.
"I guess here is kind of better?" he admitted. "But take it from me, kid: The aliens are still dicks. Mostly. Probably nine out of ten."
Grif was, as ever, a shining beacon of tolerance and appropriate language choices.
no subject
She really didn't think that the statistical ratios of di--jerks to nice people was really all that different for other species.
"Have you met every alien ever?"
You can't say that unless you've met every alien ever, Grif. Every. Alien. Ever.
no subject
That is not how science works.
Grif shrugged, a lazy and unconcerned motion. "Either way, you don't have to take my advice," he said. Which, all in all, was probably a good thing to not do anyway. "Make all the alien buddies you want. Prove science wrong or something." He sounded doubtful.
no subject
But that this man thought it did was pretty funny and the fact he was funny and slightly ridiculous made her at least want to know who he was. She was used to having funny and slightly ridiculous people in her life.
"What's your name? I'd like a name to go with all your being bad at science," she said, leaning her face on her hand and her elbow on the little ledge at the window. "I'm Marinette."
no subject
"And you should be careful if you're going to offend science, Marinette. It'll screw you big time. I know." He tapped one temple with a finger to try and emphasize that he was a smart person with more life experience and knowledge and a basic level of competence.
Or at least most of those things.
