#couffaine twin kwami swap
Text
Tumblr media
Couffaine twin kwami swap! I’ve had this idea for a while and I finally did it.
Julekas hair is supposed to resemble the hood do a cobra and I changed her weapon to a whip because I think the lyre is really stupid because 1.) how do you fight with it? 2.) not used in activating the power like the yo-yo and flute, and 3.) not related to snakes. I figured a whip would be far more useful in a fight and also looks like a snake.
Tumblr media
I probably could have been more creative with luka but I feel like he came out okay. I changed the stripes from the warm plum color that purple tigress had to a cooler more blue toned purple. I really like his mask since my one complaint about purple tigresses design is that her mask is kind of boring and plain despite tigers having a tone of markings and characteristics on their faces.
Tumblr media
I don’t know what they’re names would be any ideas?
Also I’m working on hawkmoths redesign now and I’m pretty happy with it so far.

Gale's ML Hot take list
-Season 2 and Season 3 should have cut out half of their episodes and been one season.
-The Zodiac miraculous are incredibly unbalanced and gimmicky and should have just been power ups OR should have been villains.
-Kagami should have been the new Bee miraculous holder, instead of introducing a new character.
-Retconning Juleka and Luka to be twins was dumb
-The whole 'Human Sentimonster is human' could have been done well but the execution by the show is lacking and it needed a considerable amount of build up.
- Ephemeral is a fun episode but the hype for it made it feel like a disappointment.
-The power system and rules for the miraculous are nonsensical and completely arbitrary.
-The anti-akuma charms are the biggest example of fake progress.
-Luka's design isnt bad, it just doesnt work in 3D
-Fu's mistake is still the stupidest plot point in the series, and the fact the guardians got their butts kicked by an EYELESS DOG, is so dumb its funny.
-Fu shouldnt have lost his memory, it was a cheap move to add drama, and basically put unnecessary responsibility on Marinette
-The love rival storyline was poorly conceived and executed. Luka did not get enough interactions with Adrien to make it worth interest.
-Adrien should have had more episodes focused on him. (he is the second Main character.) at least 2 episodes a season. (Like Lies)
-The concept of the wish recreating the universe is actually a fun tidbit that I like. Because it shows how incredibly powerful the cat and Ladybug miraculous are.
-I think the class all getting hero powers is unnecessary.
-I like the Shanghai special, as having different mystical/magical power artifacts in the world is cool lore.
-New york special actually hurts the world building because you have a character that can LITERALLY move the moon. So hawkmoth will never be a true threat.
-I never cared if Chloé got a redemption arc, I do wish they didnt jerk us around pretending like it was a thing.
-I do not care for the couffaine family drama. It is given more focus than the Agreste family and the agreste lore is ACTUALLY plot relevant.
-Lila isnt an awful character or even a bad liar, Chameleon was the only episode that has her lies be awful. She is however a bad planner.
-Reflekdoll is objectively the worst written episode but everyone gives it a pass because of the kwami swap. It changes how the ladynoir dynamic is perceived and it is for the worse.
-Adrien does suffer consequences for his mistakes, the only reason people dont see it as often as marinette is because he isnt the main focus of the show.
-Marinette learning lessons is fine, but she doesnt need to learn a lesson everytime, and often its not even her fault when they make her learn a lesson.
-Alix should have been Marinette's confidant based on build up from the series and the introduction of Bunnyx.
-Nathalie should have been the main villain of season 3 onward.
-If you have to explain a key point of the show on twitter, IT SHOULDNT BE A POINT IN THE SHOW.
-Zoé is a fine character, but she didnt need to be important.
-I have yet to see a good reason that Luka knows both Chat noir and Ladybug's identities. The thing is, He should have only known Chat noir's and then became a confidant for him.
-There should be a big argument between Ladybug and Chat noir. Or at the very least, an on screen talk in which Chat noir voices his concerns.

Hero apprentices twins
Summary:
The first battles against akumas for the new superheroes and some mishaps in their daily lives. Some peaceful moments in their civilians lives, some not so peaceful moments with certain superheroes and one or two funny situations wiht their friends. All in all, it’s just the daily lives of four hero apprentices twins.
------------------------------------
Chapter 1: Designer shenanigans
Summary:
Adrienne's class has a designing contest. Lordbug and Ladybug decide to swap their superhero duties for the week. Mishaps are bound to happen
-----------------------------------
-At the Agreste Manor-
The sun was shiny and the skies were clear. The sunshine illuminated Adrienne is having breakfast as always, taking her time to enjoy her food. Her brother comes yawning and takes a seat next to her, ready to have his breakfast and go to school. As usual, Natalie comes by, stands next to the young models and pulls out her touchpad. She opens a file and then procedes to read out loud the schedules of both teenagers. Once she finishes, she turns to leave, but remembers something and turns around.
“Adrienne, today I’ll be going with you to the school to explain the details of the designer contest you asked for. Your father has already talked about both of your ideas for the contests and monsieur Damocles has decided to accept both” says Nathalie. “However Adrien, your idea has been suggested to be presented in a later date, but it will still be done even if it isn’t right now. It seems that the director of your school thinks that holding both at the same time could cause a ruckus”.
“Oh, that makes sense” says Adrien with a tiny bit of disappointment in his voice.
Nathalie turns again and leaves to prepare herself for the day. Meanwhile, Adrienne is happily thinking about Marin and how is he soon going to be working for her and, if she was lucky, she’d be able to make him fall in love with her. Adrien though, considers if his classmates will open to him or not after the contest since, after all, he simply wanted to befriend them and have a good time. Moments later, both teenagers have prepared themselves for school and fed their kwamis properly. They stand in the front door, waiting for Nathalie to come down and for the bodyguards to prepare the limousine. Their bodyguards were a tad strange. They knew that they were cousins, but they weren’t truly similar one to another, except for the fact that both were tall and bulky. Gorilla, as Adrien call his bodyguard, had a longer face and his hair was dark greyish. Instead Orangutan, as Adrienne called her bodyguard, had a round and gentler face and his hair was ginger, including his chin beard.
-At school-
Once in school, the models come out of the limo, looking around to search for their friends and head towards Nino and Nina, who were waiting for them, once the models find them. Nathalie follows them closes, but refrains from interacting with the teenagers.
“Hey dude, have you heard the news?” asks Nino to Adrien while they do their special handshake.
“What news are you talking about Nino?” asks Adrien a bit curious.
“I’ve heard that Jagged Stone is coming to Paris in a few months and it’s likely that he’s gonna stay here for a while” explains Nino excited.
“No way. We love Jagged’s music” says Adrienne.
“Yes way girl. I’ve also heard that he’s even planning to move permanently to Paris” says Nina.
“What are you talking about?” says Alen as the reporter twins arrive.
“We were telling them about Jagged Stone” says Nino.
“I have to admit that I like Clara Nightingale more, but his music ain’t bad” says Alya.
“Mar and Mari are going to be ecstatic about this. They love Jagged and have been following him since his begginings” says Nina winking at Adrienne.
“And talking about the devil, here they come and surprisingly they aren’t late” says Alen.
“Hi guys, hi girls” greets Marin.
“H-Hello everybody” stutters Mari. Then she notices Nathalie. “Hello madam”.
“Hello” answers Nathalie.
“Oh, right. Guys, meet Nathalie. She’s father’s assistant, but she has something to do here today” explains Adrien.
“Though, she’s only going to explain something to our class” adds Adrienne.
“Well, we hope you have a good day with us then” says Marin politely.
“Likewise” says Nathalie. She scans the designers and their outfit and frowns a bit. “Are you two perhaps aspiring designers?”
“Y-Yes” says Marinette nervously. “But we’re just amateurs, we have nothing to do in comparison with professional designers”.
“Are those clothes your designs?” asks Nathalie.
“Yes, we design and make most of our clothes. We like to do it to improve ourselves” answers Marin.
“Interesting…” says Nathalie, smiling a bit. “If you don’t mind me asking, are you Adrien’s classmates or Adrienne’s?”
“I’m Adrienne’s classmate and my sister goes with Adrien” says Marin.
“I see…” says Nathalie, giving a bemused look to Adrienne. “I hope you can get along with them”.
“They are our friends already” says Adrienne, blushing a bit.
Nathalie smiles. “Lovely. Very well then, I’ll be heading inside to talk to your homeroom teacher”.
“Wow, that was weird. She seemed to be colder when we went to your house” says Nino as soon as Nathalie disappears.
“She can be like that sometimes, but she’s really kind” explains Adrien.
“Yeah, yeah. All of that is very interesting, but what is she going to explain?” asks Nina.
“We’re going to hold a designing contest in class due to some… circumstances we had with my father” said Adrienne.
“So that’s what you meant last week” says Marin.
“Last week?” asks Adrien confused.
“It’s nothing you have to worry about Sunshine” says Alya.
“Oh, right. I had to tell you something in private dude” says Nino and takes Adrien away, giving Alya a thumbs up without Adrien noticing it.
“Good, now that he’s not here I have a lot to explain” said Adrienne.
“Why can’t Adrien listen to this?” asks Alen curious.
“Basically, he doesn’t know a single thing about Mari’s and Marin’s presents and hearing this would basically give that away” explains Adrienne.
“Yeah, we don’t want Sunshine to be sad after our sweet designers resigned their gifts for his happiness” says Alya.
“So basically what happen is that, when I saw our father’s supposed presents, I recognised Mari and Marin’s gifts and my presents were exactly what I had asked Nathalie to get me, but she mysteriously had nothing to give me” explains Adrienne. “I went to his office completely mad at him and I threatened him a couple of times, including leaving his company and the house. So, in order to change my mind, he let both of us to make him a request and he promised to fix our schedules and also apologise to Nina and Nino”.
“Which he did. He even gave us a ticket to have a discount in his boutiques” says Nina.
“My request was to hold the competition to pay back Marin for his kindness and to apologise for what my father did” says Adrienne. “Because I know you are going to win Marin”.
“Thank you Adrienne, I’ll do my best. Though, you shouldn’t have done this just for me” says Marin.
“Oh shush Angel. Just accept this and do your best to win. Because there’s a prize right?” says Nina, ignoring Marin’s glare for the nickname.
“Of course there is. There’s a secret bonus, but the prize is an apprenticeship at Gabriel’s” says Adrienne.
“A what in where?!” exclaim the designers at unison.
“You’ve heard me. The prize is an apprenticeship at Gabriel’s” confirms Adrienne smugly.
“What is the bonus? I’m more curious about that” says Alya.
“If I tell you it won’t be a secret silly” says Adrienne as she winks and pulls her tongue out teasingly.
“Is that how we’re playing?” says Alya amused. “You know I’ll get you back for it, right?”
“I’d expect no less form you Alya” replies the blonde bemused.
The bell rings and everyone has to part ways and go to their classroom. In the door of their classroom, Nathalie is talking with Madame Mendeleiev and they turn when Adrienne and the gang arrives. They enter the room and the teacher announces Nathalie telling the students to behave and listen to her. Nathalie connects her pen drive to the computer and begins a presentation to explain the designing contest. After she finishes explaining, she and Adrienne answer a couple of questions Adrienne’s classmates have and the bell rings again.
Nathalie bids farewell and returns to the Agreste Manor, leaving Adrienne answering her classmates questions, looking very happy with the friendly banter and the attention given. Nina smiles and feels proud of her dear friend, who was begining to socialize like a normal teenager. On the other side though, Marin is freaking out and feeling the enourmous pressure of designing and making a full outfit for the end of the week, because they are supposed to present the outfits next monday and find someone to model them. Alen, as the great friend he is, proposes to model for Marin as long as he gets to keep the outfit, trying to calm down Marin in the process.
Later, the bell rings once again announcing break and Marin rushes outside the classroom to find Marinette, being followed by Alen that only wants to boast about his soon to be new exclusive Dupain-Cheng outfit to his sister Alya. Nina and Adrienne laugh because of the reporter-designer duo's antics and head to follow them, but Julia Couffaine, Nathalia Kurtzberg and Rue Lavillant stop the girls to chat a bit, offering them some ginger biscuits to snack on while they talk.
-Marin's side-
Marin and Alene enter Mme. Bustier's classroom to talk with Mari (and Alen wants to smugly brag to Alya), but both girls seem to already have left the room. On that note, Adrien and Nino seem to have already left the room too, so Marin doesn't exactly knows where to find the girls, since Nino is like his iinfo provider in Mari's classroom. Instead, Marin decides to ask Ivan, who seats behind the girls, if he has heard per chance where have the girls gone. Ivan appologises because he only has heard something about treats, but Marin thanks him and goes outside with a clear idea where are the girls going. He and Alen arrive to the Dupain-Cheng bakery and see the girls, plus Adrien and Nino, sitting and eating fresh-baked cookies and talking about school stuff.
"Hi guys, hi girls, mind if I take my sister for a minute? I need to talk to her for a bit" asks Marin as Alen takes a seat.
"Sure thing" shrugs Alya.
"For the record, I also have to tell you something sis, but I don't mind others hearing" says Alen with a smug grin.
"Keep it like that and there won't be cookies for you" says Marin teasingly.
"You wouldn't" says Alen.
"Um... Marin, didn't you wanted to tell me something?" says Marinette before her brother gets a chance to reply.
"Oh yeah, totally. Let's go over there" says Marin and walks away from the others. Once he's sure noone can hear him he turns to Mari. "Okey sis, I need a really big favor".
"Sure thing, what is it" says Marinette without asking anything.
"So, you know about the competition and all that stuff right? Well, it turns out I need to design and sew a whole outfit for a teenager and you know this week I'm on Patrol with Kitty. Would you mind to swap with me for this week? I could change it for next week so we're equal" says Marin.
"You have to do that in a week? I'm going to change with you definetly, you're going to have it rough to do all that. I could even do some of your comissions for you" says Mari understanding her brother's problem. Then she has an idea. "Have you found a model yet? Adrienne probably would be delighted to model for you".
"Unfortunately, she's a member of the jury, so I can't ask her. Anyway, Alen has offered himself to model for me if he gets to keep the clothes afterwards, so it's a win-win situation" explains Marin.
"Oh, I see... Well, we should be going back or break will be over before I get to eat a cookie" says Marinette and goes back with the gang.
"And that's why I'll get to have an original brand new Dupain-Cheng's" brags Alen with a Chesire smile.
"No fair, you'd be getting a prize regardless if Marin wins or not, which I'm sure he'll win, but I want one too" complains Alya.
"Well, I think I could work on something for your birthday, like a fancy dress or something" says Mari putting her hand on Alya's shoulder, letting her know that they're back.
"Girl, I love you. If it wasn't for THAT fact I'd ask you to marry me" says Alya smiling.
"Oh stop it you flatterer" says Mari as she takes a seat and a cookie.
"Thought she was right, Alen wins in any situation..." says Marin teasingly.
"Too late man, you've already accepted, there's no taking it back dude" says Alen.
"Are you nervous about the competition dude? Old Agreste can be pretty nasty you know?" says Nino. "No offense bro".
"None taken, I know my father isn't exactly the best parent figure..." says Adrien with a somewhat melancholic tone.
"Now that I think about it, You know what the prize of the contest is right?" says Alya.
"Yeah, I was there when Adriene asked, why?" asks Adrien.
"Because she won't tell us what the real prize is, just that there's a secret bonus aside from the apprenticeship" says Alya.
"I can't tell you then, or she will skin me alive for that. Specially I can't tell that in any boy presence, because that's related with the secret bonus" says Adrien, refusing to let Marin know.
"Oh, I think I'm having a couple ideas of what it could be..." says Alya with an amused grin.
"M-Me too..." says Marinette with a faint blush.
"I wouldn't have expected anything less from you two, you're both pretty witty" says Adrien politely, oblivious of the reaction of Mari.
-At school-
Meanwhile, Adrienne had added Julia's, Nathalia's and Rue's phones to her contacts list and was pretty happy to have made new friends. She and Nina had sat down after talking a bit with the girls, who had already left to the cafeteria. Both girls where discussing things and details about the designing contest for next's week, like who they thought had the best chances to win or who they thought that it would participate on the contest. Nina remembers about the secret bonus and asks Adrienne about it, who looks around to make sure noone is near enough to hear her before she turns to Nina with a big bright smile on her face, making Nina cover her eyes as if she had just been blinded by the brightness, earning a soft nudge.
"Okay so, remember when you where akumatized last week, threw a party for me and forced Marin to talk and dance with me?" says Adrienne.
"I didn't know about that last part, but yeah" says Nina.
"I thank you so much for that, because I got the idea for the secret bonus and I got to spend time with Marin. We even danced a slow dance!" say Adrienne.
"I want all the deets about that later, for now, keep going with the special bonus" says Nina.
"Geez, fine" says Adrienne jokingly. "Basically, I complimented Marin's clothing and he complimented mine, but when I complaint about not having much teenage clothes or a fashion sense in general, he said that perhaps I should employ someone to give me or design for me clothes. So the secret bonus is that the winner will also become my personal designer".
"Girl, that's weird" said Nina without holding back.
"But think about it, if Marin wins, I'll get to spend more time with him and maybe even make him fall for me" replied the model.
"While you may have a point, I still think it's weird. But I'll support that crazy plan of yours, I want my girl to be happy" says Nina.
"Thank you Nina" saysAdrienne hugging her. "If everything goes well, prepare yourself to be an auntie, because I'll totally make you, Mari and Alya the godmothers of my kids".
"And I'm going to spoil them rotten for sure" says Nina laughing.
The bell rings, warning the girls that class is starting in five minutes, and they go to their classroom, still talking about the future and how would Adrienne name her children. She really didn't mind the names, but she was sure that she wanted to have at least four kids, regardless of their gender. Nina herself wasn't sure if she wanted to have kids, she wasn't even in love with someone. Sure, sometime ago she had had the sweets and fell for Marin, but she had moved on for quite a long time now. And she really didn't have much choices, in class there only are six guys: Cleón and Sebástian, who are clearly not an option, Ioan and Mylo are a couple so also no, Marin is a past crush and Alen, well she doesn't knows him that much.
"Hi girls, had a nice break?" says Alen as they enter the room.
"Yes, but we didn't have any knight to escort us during break" jokes Nina.
"Where did you go?" asks Adrienne.
"I had to ask Mari to cover for me some comissions so I could participate in the contest" explained Marin.
"I could be your model if you want" says Adrienne sheepishly.
"Nuh huh, I'm the model and no one will be able to take that from me. Besides, aren't you one of the judges? That would be cheating" says Alen.
"You're right, silly me" says Adrienne hiding her disappointment.
"If it makes you happier, I did consider asking you to be the model, but as Alen says, it would be like cheating" says Marin.
"Good job Mar-man. You could learn a thing or two about treating ladies from our local angel, Alen" says Nina.
"Hey! I know how to be a gentleman" replies Alen.
"You literally have the same emotion range of a brick when it comes to empathise with girls" says Nina.
"Now, now, calm down" says Marin.
Adrienne giggles. "You really are an angel Marin".
"I will take that as a compliment now, but please, I really don't like that nickname" says Marin.
"And yet, he appreciates nicknames like Mar-man or Mar" says Nina.
"I'll call you something else then" says Adrienne.
"Thank you, at least someone understands, not like a certain dancer I know" says Marin glaring at Nina.
"Hey, you still haven't made me that bonnet you promised me" replies Nina.
"Because you still call me Angel. You know the deal" says Marin.
"I stopped for a month, but your angelic deeds made me fall for the old habit again" teases Nina.
"If I hadn't know you for so long I'd hate you right now" says Marin.
"You know you love me baker boy" jokes Nina.
"I didn't know that you two got along so well" says Adrienne.
"Well, we've got some story together. We have known each other for... How long was it again? Ten years?" says Nina.
"Nine years. And for the record, I liked it better when your brother was my classmate, he doesn't teases 24/7" says Marin.
"I also loved being with Mari, it's soooo easy to tease her and her reactions are the best" says Nina.
"I'm honestly amazed you're still friends" says Alen.
"Well, having to deal four years in a row with someone like Cleón does wonders I guess" says Nina.
"I'm sorry about that" says Adrienne, lowering her head.
"Hey, it's not your fault you know" says Marin as he puts his hand on her shoulders and smiles for her. "How he acts is entirely his problem and it's not like you're making him act like he does".
Adrienne feels her heart melting because of the warmth that radiated from Marin's smile. "T-T-Thank y-you" says with a bright blush.
"Damn, this girl has it bad for the sweets" thinks Nina.
Right when Alen was going to start to speak, Mme. Bustier enters the classroom and politely asks the students to prepare for their literature lessons. Everyone goes back to their seats and pulll out their tablets to open their digital textbook. Honestly, Adrienne liked the idea of carrying books to study at first, but she was rather thankful that they only had three subjects with actual textbooks, because they were really heavy and her back would hurt like hell if she had to carry them around all the time, eventhought she only has to carry her bag around school, because she goes everywhere else in the limo as her father wants. Still, she was rather thankful of it and had wondered more than once if she couldn't anage to convince the bodyguards to sometimes pick up her friends in the limo. Except Marin and Marinette, since they literally lived next to the school. She sometimes wondered how could they possibly be late.
-At the Arc de Triopmh-
Marin is sitting with his back resting on the Arc de Triomph, sketching several outfits ideas, getting inspiration from anything he could see, but he struggles with the designs and he discards each of the designs, finding faults everywhere and not satisfied with the results. He keeps sketching design after design, feeling frustrated because none of his ideas are remotely worth of a Gabriel's apprenticeship. He is so focused that he misses how two figures have been stalking him for a while, secretly taking pictures of the designs. He also fails to notice two particulary familiar models approaching him from his behind until Adrienne boops his cheek and his train of thought stops as he looks surprised to the models.
"Hey, having a hard time?" says Adrienne.
"Oh, hi Adrienne. I'm sketching some designs for the contest, but these doesn't convince me. It doesn't looks something at Gabriel's level" says Marin.
Adrien takes some of the designs and looks at some of them. "Even if you're right, I hate to say that this are really good designs" says Adrien as he showed them to Adrienne.
"Oh, I like this jacket" says Adrienne as she looks throught the discarted designs. "And i like the concept of this outfit. Oh my gosh I love this shirt and this shoes!"
"Well, I hope you'll like this much my final design when I manage to find the right inspiration" says Marin sheepishly.
"I'm sure you'll make something really cool" says Adrienne.
"Good luck with that, Cleón and Sebástian have been stalking you for a while and they are probably heading to a professional designer to fix the design an make it for them" says Adrien.
"They what!?" snaps Marin. Then, he breathes a few times and calms down. "Okay, this is fine. It doesn't matters, the best design will win even if they try to cheat. And if they use my designs I'll have proof of what they have done" says Marin.
"How are you so sure?" asks Adrien slightly annoyed.
"I'm sure your father is clever enough to recognise the difference between the work of an amateur like me and a professional designer. And also, there are some secret details in my designs that they won't be able to change and it would pinpoint them as my designs" says Marin with confidence.
"Well boys, Adrien and I have to leave already, so leave your macho contest for later" says Adrienne deadpanned.
As they leave, Marin looks at the bodyguards that are guarding the young blonde models and suddenly inspiration strikes. The models leave in the limo, but Adrienne looks back one last time and sees Marin furrowing his brows as he sketches with a bit of his tongue escaping from a side of his mouth. Marin focuses on his new idea and clungs to it as he draws to make sure that he doesn't forgets even a single detail. Once he is done, he looks at the design a couple of times and makes a few changes here and ther to make sure that his design won't lose to anyone. Now that he's happy with the results, he calls Alen and tells him to go to the bakery so he can show him the final design and take Alen's measures to buy the cloth he'll need.
-At the Dupain-Cheng bakery-
Marin enters to the bakery and tells his parents that Alen is going to come for a project, snatching a few cookies for Tekke. He goes upstairs and shows Marinette his design, proud of the praises his sister is giving him. Then, he goes to his bedroom to check what fabrics he has and what fabrics he needs to buy and, by the time Alen excitedly pops his head throught the door , Marin has everything ready to measure him and go to buy the fabrics. He pulls out a sewing tape and asks Alen to take of his shirt, getting some playful looks and some teasing banter from Alen. Ignoring his ridiculous friend, Marin unrolls the sewing tape and begins to mesure Alen's back. When he's measuring the width of Alen's torso, Alen grins.
"Do you like my abs so much Mar? You won't stop touching them" jokes Alen.
"If you don't stop with your jokes I'll might end up shoving a ruller up your ass" warns him Marin.
"Uh, I didn't know you had that sado vibe in you" teases Alen and Marin picks a ruler and hits his shoulder with it. "Ouch, okey, okey. I'll stop".
"Good, now, extend your arms" says Marin.
"You know? I bet this would be a completely different situation if Adrienne was your model instead of me" says Alen. "I bet you would be clumsily taking her mesures, being a gentleman and probably blushing a lot".
Marin tightens the grip of the tape. "If Adrienne was my model, which she isn't and it would be highly unlikely to happen, I wouldn't be taking the measurements. Marinette would be taking them for me. If you prefer it, I can tell her to also measure you, instead of having me doing it. I wonder how much longer your banter would keep going".
"You wouldn't. No man, you can't tell her that, she would probably turn me into a porcupine at the first joke. Marinette is scary when she's angry" says Alen speaking with honesty.
"Well, at least you've learned the lesson" says Mari as she enters with a plate with croissants. "But I wonder if I should give you some croissants then, I wouldn't want to scare you".
"No! I'm perfectly fine! You're not scary! Please, give me those delicious treats oh, queen among queens" says Alen.
"Pffftt so much for the bravado now" says Marin laughing.
"I'll leave the plate here then. Enjoy the work" says Mari before she leaves.
"Dude, if she wasn't so scary I would fall in love with her" says Alen.
"You wouldn't last a day dating her" jokes Marin. "Okey, I'm done with the top, put on your shirt and take off your pants, and before you say something, no homo".
"You take away all the fun" complains Alen, doing as he's told.
"At least I don't put the fun in funeral" says Marin.
"Man, that was awful" says Alen groaning.
"Now you understand how I feel everytime one of you joke" says Marin deadpanned.
"Come on, you love our jokes and you know it" says Alen.
"Yeah sure, I love it as much as I love you" says Marin.
"Bro, that was very gay".
"Al, even if I was, I wouldn't shamelessly flirt with you, dumbass" says Marin.
"You say that, but I won't forget how you told me about your crush on me in Adrienne's and Adrien's party" says the blogger.
"I had forgotten about that, you also thought that I had a crush on Adrienne" replies the designer.
"And you totally do dude, it's so obvious" says Alen.
"If you say so" says Marin and spank Alen's butt. "Now put on your pants, we're done. Now I have to go and buy the fabrics".
"Damn dude, I've felt that one" says Alen caressing his but.
"You earned that one and you can deny it" says Marin deadpanned.
"I will have revenge" says Alen in a sort of terminator voice.
"I'm sure you won't, at least, not if you want THIS awesome outfit" says Marin showing him the design.
"Man, is this the final design? It's so awesome! I'm going to wear it every day even if I have to manually wash it every night" says Alen.
"Well, now that I think about it, I haven't thought about some shoes to combine with it yet... What do you have in your closet?" asks Marin.
"Nothing that goes with this for sure. I have a couple of trainers, a pair of blue shoes, a green pair and maybe I still have a purple pair" says Alen.
"Hmmm, let me think a bit" says Marin as he sketches the shoes. "Okay, I think this would be a good idea" says Marin, showing Alen the design.
"Bro, will you Mari me?" says Allen.
"You'll Mari my fist if you keep up with the jokes. Did you seriously used my sister's name for a pun?" says Marin.
"It wasn't that bad. And don't you have to measure my feet?" says Alen.
"Nah, I already know your foot size, I'll just use a template from internet" says Marin.
"You're the designer, you're in charge" says Alen.
"Come on, let's get everything before the stores close" says Marin as he goes outside the room.
Alen decided to go with Marin to buy the different fabrics, going from store to store and exiting each store with another paper bag more and some fabrics or threads or sewing stuff. They met some of their classmates more than once in various stores, they even saw from far Sebástian and Cleón going inside a tailor shop, where they probably where going to ask for "their" design to be fixed and sewn. Alen wanted to take a bunch of pictures to have proofs of their cheating, but Marin dragged him to the next store before the blogger could even think about complaining. Moments later, they headed to their last stop, a normal store to gather materials for the shoe soles and some details of the top part of the outfit.
