So I haven’t finished any piece of fanfiction in like five months, so who really knows what this is
@1kittynoir1 requested a Marichat Mistletoe drabble, so here it is! Sorry it took me so long, but I made it a bit longer than the promised 1000 words so hopefully that makes up for its lack of timeliness. Hope you enjoy! :)
The soft pitter patter of rain falling against the roof had long since turned into a thunderous downpour, loud enough to dull any other noises in Marinette’s empty home.
She usually hated it when her parents had to be away for the weekend, as it left her alone with too much time and not enough sound to occupy the space.
Before becoming a superhero, she’d often talked to herself in these moments, narrating her life or imagining conversations with people she knew or playfully teasing herself when she tripped up the stairs. Since Tikki had become a permanent fixture in her life, however, she no longer felt the urge to fill the house with empty words or unfulfilled fantasies when she could instead enjoy the company of a real friend.
But on certain nights when the wind was loud and the rain hard, they didn’t speak. The creaking sounds of a girl climbing up the stairs couldn’t be heard over such a roaring storm. Neither could the gentle hum of a sewing machine or the crumbling of a chocolate chip cookie into a tiny god’s mouth or the soft thump of a stealthy cat landing on a balcony.
