give us a little more credit, fellow hero
i'm pretty sure ladybug could handle it all on her own if she wanted to, which means we don't have a lot of trouble with a two person team (most of the time, anyway)
danger's just in the job description, it's a job we have to do, you know how it goes

[ plus it's a job he enjoys, so like he's going to give it up because it's a little bit of !!DANGER!! ]

and kind of. to be honest, i'm more the one asking
maybe you'll get my origin story and identity the same time i get yours?
but i won't ask anything else about it
(^-人-^) cat's word

Are you sure you're just not biased because she's your partner? This is all the more reason I really hope I get to meet Ladybug someday. I've got a ton of questions for her suddenly, too.

But you're right. I know how it goes. Danger, keeping people out of danger, all that stuff.

I think that sounds like a fair trade, even if I'm pretty sure one origin story will be a little more interesting than the other. I just hope it doesn't disappoint you.

you'll get it when you meet her
there's a reason she gets a ton of merchandise back in paris

[ half a jest, half not. telling the president of the ladybug fanclub he's biased. how dare you, hiro.

but, seriously. he has his fair share too, but between the two of them ladybug definitely has a bit more star appeal. and it's not like he minds all that much either... considering he totally agrees. ]

also
disappointing's a heavy word
i don't think you need to worry about doing that

[ adrien what

it really is true though. he has a certain respect for hiro even if he's... really just met him. a certain respect that he's sure isn't misplaced, given how well they hit it off. ]

[zerotohiro]

I can't even imagine having merchandise. Doesn't that get kinda weird? I mean that's cool but it was already kind of crazy seeing our faces on TV back home.

[Nope. Chat's still biased and nobody can tell him otherwise. He's aware that Chat's a more recognized hero than he is and that alone is enough to make him sort of question everything he knows.]

When you hear the full story, I'm going to remind you of this conversation. But thanks, dude.

Anyway, I should probably put the device down for a while. Still in recovery mode and all that. But I'll talk to you soon?
