"Tikki, spots off." Marinette says, exhausted from fighting yet another super villain. With a few flashes of red, she is back to Marinette. She hand's her kwamii a macaron when she hears a camera flash, then someone steps out of the corner. She freezes. "So Ladybug," that someone says, his green eyes closed. "Felix-" She says quietly, and stops herself before she could say anything more.

"If I open my eyes and look right now, I'd know who you are, right? Not to worry though, I won't. But I want something in return." He says. "Well, first I'd like to apologize for doing this, but.. I need answers. I can't wait anymore." He reaches into his pocket and pulls out two pictures, one of a blonde haired woman and the other of a brown haired man. "These are my aunt and father, they both died a few years ago. You may recognize my aunt but if you don't.. She is Adrien Ageste's mother. The 'wife' of Gabriel Agreste." He takes a sharp inhale before continuing. 

"My father was the husband of Emelie's sister. However.. it's suspicious that they both died around the same night, and after doing some digging I was able to discover that Emelie Agreste died the night she was meant to marry Gabriel. See, she and him we're never legally married, not even when Adrien was born. They had a ceremony to fool people, and on the night that Emelie died they were supposed to sneak out and get married at a small chapel then return home without anyone noticing." 

Marinette gasps. That means Adrien was born out of wedlock.. She thinks. 

"But I remember that night. It was raining, or more like storming. I was a child then and I was looking for my mother, then I saw her. A blonde haired woman looking out the window, wearing the same clothes as my mother, and even having the same face and yet.. I knew it wasn't her. I believe that Adrien and I aren't cousins, but half brothers. And.. there is a possibility that they aren't dead." He says with a grimace. 

She puts her hands over her mouth, and looks over to her kwamii. "Tikki, spots on." She whispers under her breath. Felix sees a glow of red and opens his eyes. 

"Why do you need my help?" She asks, her voice cold and her gaze stern. 

There's silence for a beat, the low humming of the city fills the silence. Then, he answers.

"Because, I've tried to do my own searching, however due to my face, I'm not exactly unrecognizable." 

She blinks blankly. Was he really being a narcissist right now? 

"While I do see your point, I'm not exactly unrecognizable either." She gestures to her mask, suit, her whole self right now. She is ladybug, her face is all over Paris. 

"Correct," He says "But once you take off the mask you become a normal citizen." He answers. "Although, you may have to change the pigtails." 

"Why the pigtails?" She asks, slightly offended.

He laughs, actually laughs. She had never seen him laugh before, what in the world was happening? "Relax, I only meant that you're the only girl in all of paris that can pull them off, therefore people would recognize you. Has anyone told you you get offended easily?" He asks.

"You know, offending the person you're asking a favor from isn't such a great idea. I thought you would have been smarter you know, with all the pride you carry." 

He says nothing, only smirks at her remark. 

"I'll think about it." She says before grabbing her yo-yo and throwing it, the end catching the top of a lamp post. 

"I look forward to seeing you again." he says as she leaves.
