FIC: Marinette’s 29 Valentine’s Days: Day 28, Loop 27: Free (MLB/Lukanette)
Notes: …y’know, I like this gimmick SO DAMN MUCH, we’re gonna do it ONE MORE TIME… 😂 (I’ve been permanently traumatized by the word ‘loop’. We were putting Fruit Loops in breakfast bags the other day and I CRINGED.)
Marinette’s 29 Valentine’s Days
Day Twenty-Eight, Loop Twenty-Seven: Free
When Marinette woke up the morning of Friday, 14 February, Valentine’s Day, it wasn’t to the blaring of her alarm. It also wasn’t to a gentle humming in her ear or an incessant tapping on her roof.
When Marinette woke up that morning, it was to a ticklish flicking against her nose.
It was easy enough to ignore at first. In her half-awake state, she swatted at her nose without any thought to the cause (probably just some hair that had fallen into her face through the night). And when the tickling persisted, she groaned and rolled to press her face into her pillow. With her nose now covered, the feeling moved to her ear – only it wasn’t a tickle anymore. It was a sharp, stinging flick. She slapped at her ear with a grumble, and for a moment the annoyance left her in peace.
…until it bit her.
