Since Friday the 13th lands in October this year, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to patch together this quick little birthday fic for our favorite grumpy espresso kitty.
"Swiss?"
"Huh?" Alya turned to face her friend with a somewhat confused expression.
"Swiss chocolates? Does he like those?" Marinette inquired.
"I don't know. He's rich, so.. maybe.." Alya trepidatiously responded.
"Maybe German made stuff?" Marinette asked again as though she hadn't heard the answer. Her ahoge curved into a sort of question mark shape.
"Peanut butter." Alya quickly countered.
"Huh?" Marinette turned and acknowledged Alya for the first time since the conversation started.
"From what I've seen in his very close circle, Felix likes peanut butter candy. His Dad won't let him eat chocolate at all, but when he gets an opportunity, it's THAT one." Alya concluded with a wry smile.
"HUH?! So.. That means.. If someone GAVE him some candies like that…" Marinette half-whispered to herself, a crimson blush beginning to cross her cheeks. Her ahoge now curving into the shape of a heart.
"Like a certain LUCKY BUG perhaps?" Alaya hinted in a mild tone, capping it off with a wink.
"ALYA! SHHH!" Marinette frantically shushed, holding her index finger to her mouth with a panicked expression.
"Oh, it's okay.." Alya assured her friend with a casual glance around the campus grounds "No one can hear."
"You can never be TOO careful!" Marinette replied in a hushed tone and a suspicious expression, her ahoge now slowly spinning in circles like a radar. "Besides.. I CAN'T use my powers for selfish reasons, you know that! Something bad would happen to Felix or me!"
Alya simply heaved a sigh and replied "Mari dear, you don't take enough risks. If you love Felix THAT much, you've got to be willing enough to do something wild to get his attention!"
"I..I do love him, Alya.." Marinette replied timidly, her ahoge reflecting the heart shape once more. "But a birthday gift has to be carefully thought out. Besides, I DO have a plan.." She said. A slight grin beginning to form on her lips.
"THAT'S my girl! Always resourceful!" Alya smiled back.
Suddenly, the cheerful mood was cut short by a stray black cat traipsing by.
"Just a coincidence.. Don't worry." Alya attempted to assure her friend.
"SHUT UP!" Felix Sphinx shouted as he tossed the book halfway across the room, it just barely missed Plagg, his floating black cat fairy near the edge of his private library.
"HEEEY! Watch it! That was too close for comfort!" He complained.
"DON'T push me!" Felix snapped back at the mischievous creature. "I'm NOT going to let THIS birthday end up like the rest! I'm GOING to find a way to woo Ladybug!"
"Well, you don't have to take it out on me just because you can't stand some constructive criticism, birthday boy!" Plagg spat, crossing his arms defensively.
"For it to be constructive criticism, Plagg, it has to be CONSTRUCTIVE to begin with! All you've given me is DESTRUCTIVE criticism!" Felix growled, digging his face into the book he'd been reading. [Some peanut butter chocolates would really hit the spot right now..] He thought somewhat distantly.
Marinette sweated feverishly.. Carefully inserting the peanut butter interiors into each small chocolate pieces on her kitchen counter with the skill of a surgeon.
"Mari.. I really think you're overworking yourself!" Tikki, the small ladybug fairy imparted as she floated near her.
"Tikki! I've been making pastries since I was a child! I THINK I know what I'm doing!" Marinette responded tersely.
"Yes, but HOW LONG have you made them while KNITTING a scarf with your TOES?!" Tikki demanded.
"I'm on a time crunch, okay?!" Mari replied snippishly.
The next day, Marinette's ahoge probed around the large oak tree located near the school bench where Felix sat reading a book. With expert stealth and skill, she climbed the tree up towards the top, with a bundle carefully cradled in her free hand. Her ahoge then pointed forward slightly, as though acting like a targeting site near the empty seat near him. Then, with the grace of a trained bombardier, dropped the payload, which landed with a light thud next to the object of her affection!
Felix's eyes flared open with surprise, instinctively taking a combat position as he looked around with confusion only to see not a foe in sight. He cautiously looked over to see the bundle wrapped in decorative paper near him. Examining a tag attached, it declared in fanciful script "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, FELIX!" His eyes still wide with surprise as they darted up to the treetop above him!
Marinette lay perfectly still on the limb she was wrapped around.. Trying her best not to betray her position. [Please don't let him see me! PLEASE don't let him see me!] She thought.
After a few more seconds and a sniff of indifference. Felix picked up the package and sauntered off with it.
[YES! He took it! He took..] Marinette began to think elatedly, before quickly losing her grip and tumbling from the tree! Now flat on her back in the soft grass, whatever nagging discomfort she felt was blocked by a sense of relief.. "Happy Birthday, Felix, my darling.." She said softly to herself.
"HEY! FREEZE!" Ladybug shouted to the sure-footed thief now bolting from one moonlit rooftop to another!
"HA! Nice try kid, but I'm outta.. HEEAAAAA!" The thief began to turn and taunt before he slipped and slid on roof tiles that suddenly came loose and attached to his feet, which he then proceeded to become entangled into a clothesline suspended in between two buildings.
From out of the shadows, Chat Noir casually sauntered over and snatched the stolen purse out of the thief's hand. "Sorry, pal. You're fresh outta LUCK!" He remarked.
"Hmmph.. My pleasure, mon cherie.." Chat replied, swaggering over to the object of his desire. "You know.. Tonight is Friday the 13th.. And it's known to be.. quite unlucky.. Perhaps you'd be better off if a certain black cat crossed."
"OkaythanksI'mgoingtogivethisbacktotheladyhestolethisfrombye!" Ladybug declared in a rapid fire delivery, before leaping off the rooftop.
"Sigh This truly IS an unlucky day.." Chat moped.
Ladybug, having returned the purse to its rightful owner and now cascading carefree from the lampposts and rooftops on the slightly chilly Paris night couldn't help but notice something was different about the somewhat irritating fellow vigilante.. Something familiar.. About the scent of his breath..
OKAY I HAVE HAD TO RETYPE THIS 3 TIMES BECAUSE MOBILE TUMBLR KINDA BLOWS LIKE A LOT.
ANYWAY...
Happy Birthday to the carrot buddies!! I know that this is slightly belated for Jisung but I finished school yesterday and had quite literally no time to my greatest dismay but now I have time for them both!! Let's a go...
Let's start with Jisungie shall we? Where do I begin my with biggest bias wrecker to be honest. Now in Stray Kids being my biggest bias wrecker is a big honor, trust me. You have some pretty dang good competition anyway yes let's stop my rambling. My favourite squirrel, somehow you always manage to make me laugh no matter what and I adore that so much. Happy 18/19th birthday to the best crack head culture definition I know, keep being your gorgeous self. Love ya endlessly. (P.S sorry these are kinda short I just don't know how to put my love and thoughts into words like this >_<)
Now onto my ultimate bias, my number 1. Monsieur Felix Lee. I love you so damn much and that's slightly weird for me because the concept of loving someone (a load of people let's be real I have a lot of love to give) without ever having even met them before kinda still foreign to me. I think it always will be and that a lot of people feel it too. But in saying that, these last few months have been pretty shitty for me tbh and the fact that you managed to always cheer me up is a miracle and I need to thank you so much for it. Happy 18/19th birthday my Australian buddy, you've made everyone so proud from the start and we won't stop being proud.
And that's that, happy birthday to the best carrot boys I know, love ya both to the moon and back. Hope you have had the best days and continue to have more just like em ♥️♥️♥️
Here's some of my fave pictures of the cuties...
