Audrey Bourgeois Style Queen New York was thrilled to have Marinette apply for internship in her brand, but she knew her talent and capacity and didn't want to clip her wings which being a intern would do. Her secretary was staggered at Audrey's reaction to the application. Normally, only Gabriel Agreste's visits inspired such a reaction, and here a nobody was doing the same thing. So, the curious secretary looked into Marinette's past and came across her design successes as a student. She no longer wondered after that and fully supported her decision.

Aeon (Uncanny) and Jessica Keynes (Sparrow/Eagle) had stayed in contact with Marinette ever since her stay in New York. When Marinette told them she was coming to work in New York they were ecstatic. So much so they offered for Marinette to live with them while she found her feet.

Marinette agreed, but informed them that they would need to find a house with a yard if she was to live with them. They happily found the perfect place a 5 bedroom home 15 minutes from hers and their work place. It was bigger than they thought they needed but took it anyway. It was after this they found out the reason and were even more stoked in the house they found.

Marinette was blessed to have Aeon and Jessica as friends as they helped care for the babies so that they had a more familial environment. Marinette also explained to them that her mum was now Ladybug and she was a miraculous master now.

Jess, having a few run ins with the other box holder, introduced the two masters to each other and was surprised at the reaction of the other master.

"You're too young to be managing such a box" he said.

"That's what Su thought too, but then he trained me." Replied Marinette respectively.

"Master Su? He trained you? I don't believe you - the sanctuary has been destroyed for years!"

"It was restored recently by me. I was gifted the miraculous box by master Fu and then trained while I was pregnant by Su. Su said that I was the youngest Master ever to achieve honours in all miraculous disciplines as well as finishing school." Marinette replied calmly.

"Why are you not being respectful to Master Su-han?" He Queried, slightly angry at this young woman.

"Do you know what these are?" Marinette asked showing him her left hand. One of the rings had a light lit within.

"Master!" He gasped "I am sorry, but please forgive me. I know that this ring says you are but please can you show me?"

Marinette did, and he was very apologetic afterwards. "Master, would you like my box too?"

"Hell no!" Marinette said "I have enough problems. But I recommend that you train Eagle here if you need a replacement box holder."

"As you say Master" he groveled "Eagle I will train you at Masters request, but to receive such training you have to..."

"That rule doesn't exist any more" Interrupted Marinette.

"It doesn't?" He asked surprised.

"No, it's the first one I changed. There's a couple of others but most are left the same as they make sense."

"May I ask why it was changed?"

"Believe it or not it was because of Fu."

"Chicken legs? What did he do?"

"Made a friend of Wayzz and he gave me the Ladybug miraculous before transferring the miraculous box to me. I remained Ladybug and miraculous box holder for months before I had to go for training. It was difficult, but I wouldn't change a thing." Marinette said "may I see your box though?"
