online friends au.

their gamer tags are chat.noir and theladybug (i could not think of anything better)

Marinette sighed in boredom, scrolling mindlessly through her Twitter for the third time that hour. She was stuck at home alone, all her homework and chores were done, she didn't feel like sketching either.

It was then she decided that she might as well just launch Minecraft and hop on her one of the servers she was in with friends for a while, and work on a few things she hadn't touched.

Cracking her knuckles and slipping on her gamer headphones, she booted up the game, launching the Discord app. Looking through her direct messages, she clicked onto the one she had with user "chat.noir#0817".

The last message he had sent to her was two days ago, which was "gn m'lady".

He had given her that nickname curtesy of her gamer tag, "theladybug". She didn't know what to make it when she first created her account, but when a ladybug landed onto one of the potted flowers on her balcony that moment, she thought it fit.

theladybug: hi chat, im playing on the miraculous smp rn, u can join if youd like

The second she loaded onto the server, she heard the familiar notification sound from the app, and so the bluenette clicked back onto the tab. Sure enough, the boy had replied.

chat.noir: finally, id love too just gimme a sec

Adrien was more than thrilled when she had messaged him that afternoon; he was getting bored playing single player games. Literally jumping over his couch to his gaming set up, he launched his game, then texting her and asking if she wanted to call while playing.

------
theladybug: mhm im too lazy to constantly type anyways
------

He clicked on the call button, a bit hesitant since this was the first time they'd be on call alone in a while, usually they would have one or two others to accompany them.

"Hello?" Marinette spoke into the microphone of her headphones, hoping he could hear her.

He was a bit startled at the sudden voice ringing through his ears, but he quickly recovered, greeting her back.

"Hey there," he said, clicking his W key and maneuvering his character around the loaded world.

She smiled, satisfied that her mic was working well.

"Hi," she replied, pressing her space bar constantly to make her character jump.

"Where are you?" he asked as he walked around, punching at random animals in his way.

"I think I'm at the farm? I totally forgot where I last logged off," she told him, laughing.

Adrien blew a raspberry, selecting on his bread and eating it to bring his hunger back up.

"Imagine having a bad memory," he teased, sprinting into a random direction. "Give me your coordinates, I'll come and rescue you."

He had said that last part cinematically, making the bluenette on the other side of the line scoff playfully.

"As if I need saving, I'm already near my house, I'll just work my way around," she stated, looking at her surroundings to try and recognise anything that would lead her back.
