Marinette's POV:
Given my life and its craziness I'm not too surprised when things turn haywire all of a sudden.
I mean, flying cars and screaming civilians on every street? Just an everyday thing.
Magical creatures who speak to me and ever disappearing buildings? Pffft, morning workout.
A guy dressed up in a cat-themed leather suit who doesn't take a hint? The norm.
A villain with too much time on his or her hands and an unwilling disposition? Easier to solve than my algebra homework.
However, nothing prepared me for that one fateful morning in which I opened my Instagram to see two new pictures on my feed.
Two little notifications that would change everything.
Two little red icons on a screen that would arise such a screech in me that even Tikki would jump in alarm.
[ Kitty_section.official has posted a photo. ]
I remember seeing the announcement twice on my phone, which meant there wasn't only one new photo waiting for me, but two.
In any normal circumstances, these types of announcements wouldn't have phased me since it wasn't unusual to see my friends post pictures on social media, especially Alya. Not only that, but Kitty Section, Adrien, Luka, Juleka, Rose, and Luka's band, had gained quite a following in the last few weeks. This probably due to the concert that happened for Paris' music day about a month ago. Also, probably due to the fact Adrien was part of the band and wherever Adrien went, there would always be a large following not gonna lie. So there was a constant inflow of candids of the band every now and then, mostly provided by the previously mentioned Alya. However, today was different.
As I opened the app I could vaguely recall Rose mentioning something about a photo shoot or something a few days before, but I didn't think much of it. That is until I opened the account, of course.
In my position, any normal, functional human being would've reacted in the following manner. They would've opened their Instagram like any other day, looked at the pictures, and continued on with their mundane lives. Maybe they would've dropped a like or a comment if they were truly committed. A screenshot if they were a fan, perhaps.
But one thing is for certain...
I'm definitely not a normal, functional human being.
As soon as the first picture loaded up I started hollering and moving around my room in a hurry kinda as if my life depended on it. I blame it on some primal instinct, something deep inside that provokes such exhilarating reactions from me.
"What? What? What happened?" Tikki immediately shrieked, jumping up into the air, but I barely managed to shake my head, dialing Alya's number with a speed that would definitely impress my PE teachers. As usual, it seemed as if she had been waiting for my call since I head her familiar hello right after the first ring.
"ALYA CESAIRE!" I screeched into the phone microphone, jumping up and down on my bed, to which I was responded by her booming laughter on the other side of the phone.
"I see you have seen the new photoshoot pictures. It doesn't seem like you liked them, though. What a shame!" She teased with her mocking voice
I had a very strong urge to throw the phone across the room.
"YOU DIDN'T TELL ME THEY WOULD BE SHIRTLESS?!" I interrupted swiftly before she could continue, feeling a slight blush creep up on my cheeks as I continued to jump, my mind replaying the images in detail.
