Bonjour! Je m'appelle Bean. J'aime le café et le thé. J'ai un chat, un chien et un lapin, qui s'appelle Smitty, Dooly, et Whisper. J'aime lire.

Qu'est-ce que vous aimez faire?

Avez-vous des animuax de compagnie?

fiquei feliz que eu só precisei pesquisar a tradução de uma (01) palavra :3 vou tentar responder em francês também, mas o meu não é tão bom ainda. desculpa fazer você ir para o google tradutor :3

bonne nuit (il est(?) nuit ici)!!! je m'appelle túlio et j'ai un chat. il s'appelle mulder :D

(i needed google translate for this one :/ sorry if its wrong) j'ai grandi avec de beaucoup d'animaux de compagnie, chez ma mère il y a quatre chiens, des poulets et quatre chats et dans la maison de mon père il y a deux chats, un chien et une tortue. j'ai déménagé et maintenant je n'ai plus qu'un chat. mais je fais du bénévolat avec des animaux chaque semaine. J'AIME ÇA. tellement.

que lis tu?

[elinaline]

What would be your perfect setting for a library (bibliothèque/médiathèque)? What would you put inside? How would the outside look like?

Et quels livres/œuvres y mettraient tu en avant?

If it only depended on me it'd be a huge multi stories library like in cité des sciences or la BNF, with distinct sections for work and for fun which have different seatings and types of books.

All of them bigass wooden shelves, possibly a part with collection editions with those scales to get up to get them because it's so sexy + wood furniture is great to kill noise.

Research section MUST have tables with foldable panels that you can put up to isolate yourself, or down to work on a group project, plugs for phones and computers, Ethernet cables, and ergonomic chairs with back and arm support.

Fun section would have sofas and bean bags and a "librarian favorites" and "user favorites" shelves, a corkscrew board with postits to allow people to suggest new books.

There would also be a section with video games and movies on physical support + a few external DVD players that people could also borrow.

If there's no limit it'd also have a few quiet insulated rooms to allow people to isolate and repeat for job interviews, theatre, music recitals and whatnot.

Basically it'd look like a mashup of all the libraries I've ever been to I think.

And from the outside ? I'd love it to have some kind of terrasse with an arch above the door and protection from the rain. I have such fondness for the 70s building and their experimental roofs. Maybe a flat roof garden where kids could do monthly gardening activities and plant like peas and stuff ? In the entrance it would be a corridor where people are allowed to be loud with small turning exhibitions from the local artistic organizations, changed like every trimester, and posters for help groups and queer orgs and harm reduction.

As for the books, there'd definitely be a bunch of classics from multiple genres, and I'd also push comic books, especially the hidden gems that not everyone know but that should absolutely be cult classics. There would definitely be some rec somewhere for the college de France lecture of Peeters somewhere.

If I could go all the way into the dream there'd be regular seminars and tables rondes by cool people –Roland Lehoucq, Denis Bajram, Karim Debbache, Laelia Véron, Alex Mahoudeau, Jul' Marot... There's so many people with so many interesting things to tell actually.

C'est l'heure de réaliser, je dis trop de "conneries". L'époque du famous "Mr Bean" est terminé. Je suis un homme aujourd'hui. C'est fini rigoler sur tout. Ne rien prendre au serieux. Les gens vont-ils te prendre au serieux si tu ne le fais pas. Tu sais que ton QI est bon pour filtrer mais rappelles too, les gens prennent leur temps et ont besoin de leur pause. Contemple le moment

[lost-and-created]

mon amour, le monde m'a béni avec toi. personne au monde ne pourrait jamais me l’enlever. tu es tout ce que je voulais et tout ce dont j'avais besoin. Vous faites vraiment ressortir le meilleur de moi. À travers le bien, le mal et à travers tout cela, tu es à moi. Je ne pouvais pas demander �� quelqu’un d’autre de partager ma folle vie. Bean a de la chance d'avoir un parent comme vous et je suis moi-même reconnaissant d'avoir un partenaire aimant et solidaire comme vous. tu es tellement incroyable, tellement aimée. Je vous aime

Je t'aime aussi, bébé!

Tu es toujours aussi gentille. Vous me rendez si heureux et c’est une joie que tout le monde peut voir. Je suis tellement chanceuse de t'avoir dans ma vie et de t'avoir comme petite amie. Je suis à toi tous les jours de ta vie, mon amour.

2019

Ce sont des modalités héroniques (oui bestiau, je sais que je t'ai négligé, mais tu sais que tu es toujours là, dans mon). Eau. D'abord ce fut urine (l'odeur). Je fis mine de rien. Cette femme, cette vieille femme qui ressemble à Mr Bean je ne l'aime pas parce qu'elle est bête, inculte et surtout – terriblement normale. Ce n'est pas la pathologie qui veut ça, au contraire ; la pathologie met à nu. Chez N., comme souvent, je profitai du temps qu'elle passait seule dans la salle de bain, fière et jalouse de son autonomie, pour m’allonger sur son lit en compagnie de la vieille chatte amicale, et somnoler. Chez B., donc, glaires (lire avant). Chez O. conversation faussement enjouée, allusive (en réalité elle est complètement perdue mais fait semblant que non). B., elle, ne fait pas semblant. Il a pu pleuvoir à verse quelques heures plus tôt elle vous assène un « depuis le temps qu'il n'a pas plu, les paysans vont pas être contents ». Chez T., Casio. Je ne puis en dire davantage. G. resta sur les toilettes, entre rire et désespoir, protestant : « je ne vais quand même pas me mettre quatre suppositoires » et puis M., disons, qui retire sa culotte quand je lui demande de s'habiller, très insolente voire coquine. Elle rit et comme j'essaie de la raisonner un « pourquoi pas » riche d'équivoques nous laisse souriants.

🇫🇷🗣️Description de la maison🗣️🇫🇷

C'est au Panamá, terre de prédilection des pirates au 17ème siècle, que les meilleures cannes à sucre ont été repérées puis coupées pour distiller un rhum de haute lignée. Après un long vieillissement en fûts de Bourbon, il a été acheminé depuis la mer des Caraïbes jusque sur notre Côte Atlantique où il s'est enrichi en fines épices et arômes naturels sous l'influence bénéfique d'Emile Perrier dont l'esprit hante toujours notre Distillerie des bords de Seugne.

On the palate we have a rum of crazy delicacy. Very aromatic. On aromas of coconut, bananas, precious wood. All accompanied by vanilla notes that line the taste buds wonderfully. A nice length in the mouth with a finish on the cocoa bean and blood orange.

📜 In summary📜:

I really liked this rum which made me travel to the islands without leaving my sofa. Gluttony in every sip with a fruity and very expressive nose and mouth. You hardly feel the 40° so there is softness. Thank you very much for this beautiful taste journey.

🇬🇧🗣️Description of the house🗣️🇬🇧

It was in Panama, the favorite land of pirates in the 17th century, that the best sugar cane was spotted and then cut to distil a high-class rum. After a long aging in Bourbon barrels, it was transported from the Caribbean Sea to our Atlantic Coast where it was enriched with fine spices and natural flavors under the beneficial influence of Emile Perrier whose spirit still haunts our Distillery on the banks of Seugne.

Back to Dalyan

Il ne nous est pas facile de quitter la ferme de Berin tellement on s’y sent bien mais une perspective nous réjouit, celle de retourner à Dalyan pour rendre visite à Ceren & Sebastian chez qui on avait également été bénévoles en 2019. On décide de prendre un bus entre Sakarya et Mugla (pour la bagatelle de 12 heures de trajet). C’est long mais on nous donne plein de Tutkus pour tenir le coup (Simon les a unilatéralement élus meilleurs biscuits au chocolat de l’an 2023). En arrivant dans le sud c’est un vrai changement de décor : le printemps est déjà bien installé à renfort de parterres de camomille et coquelicots et de bouquets suspendus de glycine, lila et mimosa. L’air est saturé par l’odeur sucrée des orangers en fleurs et on rencontre quelques tortues qui s’aventurent (lentement) sur la route. On est nous-mêmes un peu rouillés, c’est la première fois depuis le début du voyage qu’on s’est arrêtés aussi longtemps. Il nous faut moins de deux jours pour rejoindre le delta de Dalyan qu’on est ravis de retrouver quasi inchangé – malgré quelques constructions touristiques additionnelles. On est presque nerveux avant d’arriver et on manque de louper la maison tellement ça a changé. Le terrain de la famille s’est considérablement agrandi car ils ont racheté plusieurs parcelles de vergers voisins et une deuxième maison a fait son apparition : les bricoleurs auto-didactes ont pris du grade et ça se voit ! En parlant de nouveauté, on fait la connaissance des deux derniers arrivés, Civan (que nous connaissions seulement sous forme d’habitant d’un ventre rond) et Luna Rose, deux enfants aussi casse-cous qu’attachants. On apprend en passant que le troisième est en route, pas question de perdre le rythme ! Ceren et Sebastian ont accueilli plus de 400 bénévoles depuis notre passage en juin 2019 et on sent qu’ils sont bien rodés. Ils organisent maintenant des sessions de bénévolat de 20 jours elles-mêmes espacées de quelques semaines. On débarque lors d’un de ces interstices donc on a la chance d’avoir beaucoup de temps pour discuter avec Ceren et jouer avec les enfants. On met tout de même la main à la pâte en démantelant un bout de toit sur la deuxième maison vouée à devenir un ensemble de 4 logements destinés à des familles souhaitant rejoindre le projet pour en communauté avec eux. On fait aussi la chasse aux limaces invasives, on désherbe et on récolte (déjà !) des seaux entiers de fava beans (un légume de très bonne facture). Malgré quelques palpitations en voyant les petits jouer aux acrobates au milieu du chantier ou taper / lécher tout le mobilier (apparemment il n’y a que nous que ça inquiète), on passe une douce semaine.

On dirait le sud.

Du mimosa en veux-tu en voilà.

Gare au tortues.

Bivouac entre rivière et verger.

Cette fois on arrive par le lac Sülüngür et ça en jette.

Coucou le delta.

Une maison et deux enfants plus tard.

Session plantation.

“J’aime vivre dans le danger” Luna Rose, deux ans moins le quart.

“A chaque fois que je vois une échelle, je ne peux m’empêcher d’y grimper pour y  faire un grand écart aérien”, Civan, (presque) quatre ans.

Fava-joie.

De quoi bien dormir (camomille).

Luna Rose et Civan.

I promised I would make everything I could about evanstan so I’m 100% taking that song choice as a love note to Sebastian and not the clouds or whatever. UGH such a romantic bastard 😭😭 I loveeee him Minnie 🥺💕

Also, I hope you’re having a wonderful Sunday & have recovered from that run a little 💕💕😘😘

Bless you for keeping that promise, my love ❤️ The lyrics are so goshdarn romantic and perfect for them too 😭🥺💕

Je te laisserai des mots En-dessous de ta porte En-dessous de les murs qui chantent Tout près de la place où tes pieds passent Cachés dans les trous de ton divan Et quand tu es seule pendant un instant

Ramasse-moi Quand tu voudras

Help 🥺🥺🥺 1000% a love note to Sebastian, you're completely correct <3

I'm having a great Sunday honey, I've been enjoying the sunshine and writing is going well, so I'm happy! Hope you are too, you wonderful bean 💕💕 Love you to bits!! 😘

More "bean" knowledge.... The original title of SOARA's RE:START song "Netenai Pierrot" (Sleepless Clown) was actually "Nemutai Pierrot" (Sleepy Clown). When three people being recorded were asked to scream out the name in various ways, their tension (mainly two people) was so out of charts that they pronounced it as "Netenai" and so, the name of the song changed right on the spot...

HARU: Remember the shooting from the other day? KAKERU: Yes. HARU: I decided I wanted to change my hairstyle slightly. KAKERU: Ah, that does happens. HARU: So I also thought to change my glasses and got these ones instead (round frame). KAKERU: End result: "let's stick to the usual!", right? HARU: At least comment on it. KAKERU: Sometimes, it's better to be silent than to speak.

SHUN: My secret, huh? IKU: Please don't say anything that'll destroy the laws of the world. SHUN: Eeh? That limits things a lot. YORU: What were you going to reveal... SHUN: Eh~ Uhm~~~ Ah. There was a time when I was young where I got bored with all the rituals so I transformed into one of my female relatives and left with Sakaki-san~

#Setsubun Cheering Committee

KAI: Didn't Sakaki-san get scolded? (wry smile) SHUN: I said, "Don't be angry with him. If you do, I'll be angry with you" and things turned out fine♪ ...But now, I understand the feelings of those were were worried for me, so I won't be angry~ YORU: Some things can only be understood when you become an adult. YOU: Ritual?? Transformed???

#Setsubun Cheering Committee

IKU (*・ω・)ノ゜三・゜゜・: An opening! SOY-ya! YORU: Ah! (hit) YOU: So, the tournament's host was finally hit. RUI: The secret at night... KAI: That sounds kinda indecent. HARU: Kai, stop immediately (ww) YORU: Uhm...! T/N: It's a pun with Yoru's name. The sentence can be read as both "Yoru's secret" or "the secret at night".

#Setsubun Cheering Committee

YORU: Setsubun is an event early in February. As opposed to Valentine's Day, this is a much more simple event. Even the snacks for Hinamatsuri are bigger as compared to Setsubun's! But!! I.. really love Setsubun!! EVERYONE: We already knew that.

#Setsubun Cheering Committee

YORU: Setsubun is about to end. HARU: It was quite a fierce battle this year too. KOI: It really was. YORU: But, this means that we'll undeniably be lucky! And so, this is the end of this year's Setsubun! Now, then everyone, let's say it together? EVERYONE: SOY-ya! YORU: Thank you very much! And now I will return to being the same old Yoru!

Hypothetically Ever After

[childhood friends AU, adrienette, slowburn, fake/pretend relationship]

With only two weeks of summer vacation to spare, Marinette enlists Adrien’s help with a task of utmost importance.

“I need you to help me seduce your brother.”

Quite predictably, nothing goes according to plan.

chapter twenty-three

As the party went on, Marinette began to let her guard down, losing herself in the flashing lights and thumping bass beat of the music as she danced the night away with Adrien.

Which, in hindsight, proved to be a mistake; one she really should have anticipated considering whose house she was currently in.

But alas, her complacency inevitably came back to bite her in the ass in the form of one Chloe Bourgeois, who cornered her the moment she was alone.

She was queuing for the bathroom when the blonde terror swooped in, grabbing her by the wrist and dragging her in the opposite direction.

“Hey!” Marinette cried, trying to pull away. “I kind of need to get in there...” She looked back towards the bathroom with dismay. She’d just spent the last fifteen minutes waiting and her bladder was nearly full to bursting. She would have been at the front of the line now if it weren’t for Hurricane Chloe’s untimely intervention.

Chloe merely scoffed, hauling her with a surprising amount of strength towards a less crowded area of the house.

“Now that you’re dating an Agreste you can’t be seen doing something as pedestrian as waiting in line,” she sniffed disdainfully, making for a door at the end of the hall. "Only plebs wait in lines."

This must be where the personal quarters are, Marinette realized, as Chloe shoved her through the doorway into what appeared to be her bedroom, based on all of the glittering gold details.

“The bathroom is to the right,” was all she said, before proceeding to the gilded vanity in the corner, where she began touching up her lipstick.

In spite of her misgivings, Marinette went about her business quickly, too preoccupied and frankly desperate to care about the blonde's intentions at that very moment.

When she emerged from the bathroom, however, she was not at all surprised to find Chloe lying in wait.

“I had a feeling there might be more to this than a simple act of charity...” She quirked a brow, taking in the way Chloe stood across the room, arms crossed, blocking the only path to the exit.

“Clearly you have some grievance you would like to air,” Marinette spread her arms wide, deciding it was better to rip off the bandage than remain trapped, waiting on tenterhooks for whatever the blonde had to say. "So let’s have it then. What could possibly be so pressing that you had to drag me all the way here to tell me?"

“Adrien let me in on your little plan.”

Chloe's statement drew Marinette up short, her thoughts screeching to a halt as the words registered.

.............Adrien did WHAT NOW??? ??

She gaped at the blonde in horror. One conversation with Chloe and suddenly Adrien was singing like a canary? Their pretend relationship was never going to work at this rate, not if Adrien went around spilling the beans to anyone who so much as lightly questioned him about it!  

“He told you everything?” Marinette asked, unable to keep the betrayal from bleeding into her voice.

Chloe rolled her eyes. “Oh, please. Spare me the whole ‘Et tu, Brute?’ routine, okay? You really shouldn’t give him too much of a hard time. I can be very... persuasive... when I want to be.” She admitted, a glint entering her eye.

Marinette shot her an unimpressed look.

“You threatened him, didn't you.” It was not a question.

Chloe simpered.

“Wouldn’t you like to know.”

Then her expression shifted. “For the record, I tried to talk him out of it. But that simpleton insisted—blathering on about ‘honouring his commitment’ and ‘seeing this through to the end.' Which is why I’ve been left with no choice but to appeal to you directly.”

She stalked across the room, getting right up in Marinette’s personal space.

“Do not do this.” Chloe’s face was completely serious, bordering on grave. “I don’t give a flying fuck what you do with your life and your time, but dragging Adrien into this hot mess of a situation is unacceptable. Rethink this. Please.”

Marinette's jaw went slack.

In all of the years she'd known Chloe Bourgeois, she had never once heard her use the word please. Until that moment, Marinette hadn’t even been aware the word was part of her vocabulary, let alone that she knew how to use it in a sentence.

Chloe must have been far more serious about this than she'd originally thought, if she was willing to resort to such drastic measures. For Chloe, genuinely saying please was the equivalent of prostrating herself before someone in supplication—it was virtually unthinkable.

And yet, there they were.

Still, despite her uncharacteristic sincerity, Marinette could only shake her head in response to the blonde's plea. “I’m sorry, Chloe, but without Adrien, I have no hope of making this plan work at all. I just… I can’t give up without trying. I just can't.” Until Adrien told her he wanted out, Marinette planned on continuing full steam ahead, regrets and misgivings be damned. She had more riding on this than either of them could possibly know.  

“I figured as much.” Chloe’s expression hardened, sharpening at the edges as her anger honed her next words into a blade. “Make no mistake, Dupain-Cheng. Adrien is too good for you. You know this, I know this. The only one who remains too dumb to realize it is, unfortunately, Adrien himself."

"So since you’re too selfish and pigheaded to prioritize his well-being and call this whole thing off, all I will say is this,” Chloe’s blue eyes were frosty even as they burned into her, her finger pointed directly in Marinette's face. “If you hurt him, or break his heart, I will end your miserable little existence before you can even so much as blink. If you run, I will hunt you to the ends of the earth... And I will make you suffer.”

Marinette eyed the blonde speculatively, noting the red flush that had overtaken her skin, and the way her hands were trembling under the force of her rage. There was no question that Chloe meant every word of what she was saying, and that she was willing to go to hell and back if it meant protecting Adrien.

After examining her for a moment longer, Marinette inclined her head, holding her hands up between them. “If I hurt him, then I deserve it,” she said simply, shoulders raising in a half-shrug. “I would expect nothing less honestly.”

In fact, if it had been anyone else in her position, Marinette would have been right there beside Chloe, threatening their very life and limb. She cared deeply about Adrien after all, more than she could even put into words. The thought of hurting him made her insides twist, as though they were shrivelled up and wilting. It was the last thing she ever wanted to do.

But it shouldn’t happen, she reminded herself, not if they stuck to their agreement. They were in this for a bit of lighthearted fun; a no-strings-attached summer romance that would hopefully lead them both to their desired end results. There were no real feelings involved and thus, minimal risk of complications.

Chloe nodded once, tightly.

“Good.”

And that was as close to an agreement as they had ever come.

She stepped to the side, allowing Marinette a clear path to the exit.

“I had a feeling that our newfound ‘friendship’ might be a short-lived one. Although I’d say the fact that it lasted over an hour without any death threats exceeded all of my expectations.” Marinette remarked dryly as she passed, pausing in the doorway to look back at the blonde.

Chloe smirked in reply.

“What can I say? I’ve been busy. It’s not easy being an excellent hostess, you know.”

-x-

As Marinette made her way back through the party to where she’d last left Adrien, she was acutely aware of any looks she was getting, feeling the weight of people’s gazes on her even more than she had earlier.

Am I ever going to get used to this? She wondered, somewhat desperately. If she did wind up getting together with Félix, did that mean she would be expected to deal with stuff like this forever? It seemed like a particularly heavy burden to bear when she contemplated a lifetime of having to do it.

Luckily though, word seemed to have gotten around about the verbal smackdown Chloe had meted out earlier, because no one was brave enough to approach her again or say anything even vaguely disparaging within hearing distance. This meant she was able to move through the crowds quickly and relatively unencumbered.

Still, it was somewhat of a relief to make it back to Adrien unscathed. He caught her eye from across the kitchen and immediately made a beeline for her.

Grabbing her by the shoulders, he steered her away from the thick of the crowd, finding a place where they would be able to speak more freely.

“You’re not going to believe this.”

Adrien was all a-flutter, his eyes darting this way and that, making sure there was no one around who might be listening in on their conversation.  

“What?” She asked, her heart pounding loudly in her ears, taking in the wide-eyed look on his face with no small amount of trepidation. “What’s going on?”

“Félix and Bridgette just got here,” he hissed, keeping his voice low.

“Okay...” That wasn’t anything they hadn’t planned for. If anything, they were counting on the two of them being at the party. Which made Adrien’s reaction all the more puzzling. “...is that not a good thing?”

Adrien shook his head back and forth. “No, no, no, listen. They got here together. And apparently—according to what I’ve been overhearing—Bridgette happens to be sporting a very large, very expensive looking diamond bracelet on her wrist.”

Marinette’s eyebrows drew together, her mouth falling open. No way. “You don’t think—?”

“Félix bought it for her? Oh, almost certainly.” Adrien nodded, confirming her suspicions. “It has big ‘Fuck you, Dad’ energy.”    

God.  DAMNIT.

She and Adrien were the only two at the party—apart from Félix and possibly Bridgette—who would have any idea about the true meaning behind the gift. It had most likely been given in an attempt to make amends for Wednesday night's disastrous Dinner Party From Hell, which was ironic, since buying forgiveness through material means was a move pulled straight out of the Official Guide to Shitty Parenting, written by Gabriel Agreste himself.

The bracelet would no doubt serve as another giant 'F-U' to Gabriel, on top of showing everyone else that Félix and Bridgette were dating seriously enough to be giving and receiving expensive gifts.

Marinette would have said it was a brilliant, masterful play on Félix’s part if she wasn’t too preoccupied thinking about how much of a complete and total disaster it was for her and Adrien.

“This is all anyone’s been talking about, isn’t it?” She asked, already afraid to hear the answer. If everyone at the party had been talking about Félix and Bridgette, then that meant the attention had effectively fully been pulled from the two of them, completely eclipsing their ‘official’ debut as a couple.

They had counted on having the spotlight for longer, to create the proper window for maximum tongue-wagging, all in hopes of producing as much envy as possible. Or at least this was true on Marinette’s end, specifically with regards to Félix.

But they hadn’t accounted for something like this. Félix and Bridgette arriving together was somewhat of a foregone conclusion. Bridgette flaunting an ostentatious, overpriced apology gift on her wrist, though?

“This is bad news.” Marinette looked at Adrien, hoping against hope that he had some glimmer of a silver lining to point out on this unwelcome raincloud.

He only shrugged.

“Yeah, people pretty much haven’t shut up about it since the two of them walked in.”

Marinette gnashed her teeth, her hands clenching and unclenching at her sides.

They had been thoroughly and quite ruthlessly upstaged, the wind ripped unceremoniously from their sails.

All because Adrien’s dumbass brother decided to wake up this morning and choose violence.

“Damn it, we didn’t plan for this!” She cursed, slapping a palm to her forehead. “Why the hell did your brother decide to enter into his rebellious teen phase now of all times?”

And since when did he start giving out fancy and expensive presents to girls? Marinette bit back that thought with a stab of envy. She could count on one hand the number of gifts Félix had given her, and they were all joint presents with either his brother or the rest of their family that he had put little to no effort into picking.

But there would be time to stew on her resentment later. For now, Marinette nibbled on her lower lip, glancing at Adrien worriedly. “What can we do to get the attention back?”

Adrien’s face was pensive, his eyes narrowed as he too furiously tried to come up with some kind of a solution to their dilemma.

Suddenly he blinked, holding up a finger as his gaze focused in on her.

“Did you bring that thing I mentioned earlier?”

Marinette paused, staring back at him blankly as she tried to keep up with his train of thought.

Then, as though a lightbulb had gone off, she clued in.

“YES, THAT’S IT!” She cried, squeezing one of his arms. She had to hold herself back from doing anything more, as her first instinct had been to throw her arms around him and plant a big ol' kiss on his lips. Which might have been a tad overzealous. “You beautiful, brilliant, diabolical little man. That is perfect!”

I guess the ‘slippery bastard’ gene must run in the Agreste family... She mused, her lips stretching into a grin, one that Adrien was quick to match. Although she had originally hoped they wouldn't have to resort to such drastic measures for success, she couldn’t help but acknowledge the apparent genius of his plan.

Even if the thought of going all-in left nervous butterflies swirling in her stomach.

It was time to step their game up.

It was time for Stage Two: Bikini, the Redux.
