[ excuse him as he tries to motion that he'll hold that shopping basket for her, while he continues to listen. he's a dork, and that extends to being a giant nerd whenever necessary.

there's something like surprise in his expression, and recognition. it isn't due to being shocked that she's famous, but... he gets all of that, kind of, even without the superhero mask.

not that he can say that. ]

It is, huh? [ oh. that's a little too... ] It's good you found people like that. I've got enough of media with the mask on, so I can't really imagine how it's like being in the spotlight all the time, like... that. It sounded kinda... lonely?

[She tilts her head, not at first understanding what Chat's trying to do before she passes the basket to him and begins to lead him down an aisle. Eggs first. That seems to be important.

It's also a little surprising that the word he chooses is "lonely."]

That's one way to describe it. I thought being an idol would maybe be better than how things were but things got complicated. I'm back from my break now, but I've changed some things. I don't want to make the same mistakes, so...I'm going to be honest with my fans and really make something with my music. If people don't like what they learn about me, then...at least I'll still have the people I really care about.

[She shakes her head as she picks up a dozen eggs, setting them in the basket.] Sorry, that wasn't what I brought you out here for.

[ holding the basket obediently and patiently, of course, raising it up slightly whenever he feels she needs to slip anything in there. he offers her a small smile at the apology. the talk isn't exactly what he'd expected, but there's nothing wrong with it. ]

That was for picking up some things... which we're doing. I don't mind listening in the meantime, heavy talk for a shopping trip or not. [ though it's more like "I don't mind shopping in the meantime", since her words are what he's paying more attention to. ] I'll say one last thing. I probably won't be able to see how that goes, different worlds and all, but I think they'll like what they get. I'm definitely cheering you on.

[ but! with that, he'll take her lead and drop it if she likes, with the following, as he peers into the basket: ]

Ooh, how eggciting.

[ forced puns with chat noir 101 ]

[pseudonyms]

You're definitely a good listener. [She's grateful for that, and she can't help but feel strangely comfortable around him.] Thanks.

[But thennnn...] Chat Lite even comes with the same puns, huh? [She looks up from the eggs.] I think you're the only person I know besides Teddie who throws them into every day conversation.
