"It's a different one, somebody else got a hold of the Butterfly Brooch from the Gaurdian. How I still need to figure that out. But I know that for a fact.", the teen shook her head.

Then she blinked.

"Y-you..you want to help me?", repeated the bluenette teen in disbelief. The girl knew that this probably should not have come as a surprise considering where she was now. Roux Long had taken a rather large risk in bringing the crow home. The first out of several that made Adrianna confused as to if she should be touched at his faith in her good intentions and willingness to help her. Or angry about his reckless carelessness with his Miraculous's and family's safety. Especially now with Hawk Moth and Screech on the loose. The feather-clad girl could have easily been an enemy and turned on him after all. Though what was really bothering Adrianna at the moment was what Roux Long' s words brought to the forefront of her thoughts....a couple simple words sending her head reeling. The dragon's offer for some reason was implying something more then just helping with Hawk Moth, much more. And the male didn't know it but that was what was truly shaking the green eyed girl to her feet. Those implications.... Vulpine helped Nightingale on occasion yet what the new hero was actually suggesting in fine print? "Answer me one thing Roux Long-how for sweet Miraculous sake?", Adrianna asked in a low voice, "How can you seem to understand me with lucky guesses? Why are you showing me so much trust when we just met and I have showed you none? Why respect my wishes during the fight despite your own, then help me find a safe place to hide for a bit while my Kwami refuels on top of it? I don't trust others so easily.....never have or will! On top of that Hawk Moth is dangerous Roux! He managed to get his hands on Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculouses the first time he was in Paris years ago! The Crow Hairpin is the proof of that!" But at the same time she mumbled "Nightingale and Roux Long" under her breath tasting the trio of words on her tounge. There was nothing wrong with the trio. In fact they sounded right together. Yet when Roux Long warned he was coming into the room, Adrianna bolted. The girl made a dive for the nearest cover she could find in the dark....in other words a pile of boxes that she could crouch behind. Well more like tripped and fumbled-dove for cover.

The girl decided there was nothing else to do. She jumped on the rooftops to reach her house. On the way, she thought she saw a figure on the rooftops. Though she might be wrong, she jumped to where the person was.

(ahhhh this post is terrible)

As Lance entered through the window and made his way to his bed, sitting down on the edge with his hands clasped in front of him, he pondered the question put forth for a moment. In the end, there was only one answer he could truly give, only one thing to explain his actions, however reckless they could seem from the right viewpoint.

"I don't know how I can trust you so much without you ever showing me any trust," he said in a tone that seemed both calm and uncertain at the same time. "I just know that I do. I've always understood other people, despite closing myself off. Maybe that's why I know when they're troubled. 'Cause I'm familiar with the feeling, the way they hold themselves. It's the same posture I see when I look in the mirror."

"I don't know why I didn't step in during your fight with Screech, even though every fiber of my being wanted to help. Maybe I just knew you could handle yourself, maybe I just wanted to give you the distance you seemed to want. I'll never know."

"I don't know," Lance said with an air of finality, his face masked by the shadows of his room. He still hadn't turned a light on, probably to show that he meant to keep his word. "I just know that I don't care how dangerous this Hawk Moth is. I can't let you shoulder this burden on your own. Nightingale might be strong, stronger than I could ever imagine, but even you can't do everything alone. Neither could Ladybug. She had her Chat Noir; maybe you need a Roux Long."

When the hidden implications of his own words hit him, Lance immediately blushed a bright crimson, glad for the darkness that currently surrounded him. It might not hide his blonde hair all that well, but it at least hid his embarrassment. Even though it need not do so, since the only other occupant of the room was out of his field of vision, hidden by boxes. Boxes that had almost fallen over, which would have alerted his parents. "Not that way, though. I just mean you need a partner, that's all. It would be weird to insinuate anything more since we barely know one another. Well, you barely know me. I'd say I know a bit more about you. Skilled though you might be, a closed book you are not."

"I doubt you know me like you think.", said Adrianna shaking her head denying the dragon's words, "I bet there are things about me that would surprise you pretty good if I told you. Crows are mysterious birds and we prefer to keep to our families. You know how I fight but that is it." Him know more about her then she did about him? Maybe the teen didn't know much, if anything, about her fellow hero but that didn't make her an open book. Not when she purposefully kept herself at a distance from other holders. Not when her personality was cold and distant compared to it when she was a civilian. He was surely pulling her leg. Meanwhile, as the conversation continued, the bluenette remained where she had tucked herself behind the pile of cardboard as she listened. And the more she listened the more she came to realize something....similarities. She and Roux Long shared some similarities, were in the same boat even as the other. What was more was Adrianna could tell the male wasn't playing her for a fool. Everything he said was the truth, even if he edited some portions of it it was still the truth. The girl always had a keen sense of judging other people's characters or their motivations for things ever since she was a small child. It was a innate talent. Every fiber in the green eyed hero's being told her that Roux Long was someone to take on his word and it would be alright. And the teen believed her fibers. "If you're serious about being my partner then one more thing Roux. Make me a promise right here and now and know I will do everything I can to hold you to this promise. Promise me on your Miraculous that you will always be by my side no matter what we face. Say you'll never up and leave me."

It sounded like a simple easy promise.

It sounded like a promise a child would ask for. Yet, to Adrianna, asking this of the dragon was as important as important could get. If the red and black-clad male hero had any desire to be her partner, this was one promise he would have to give her and understand. Without it even the pre-existing trust that seemed to lay between the pair of heros counted for only a fraction. Nightingale would keep her partner with her regardless of how that came to pass.

"What!? Nightingale!", chirped Merrle as she hoovered over to her Chosen. The Crow Kwami had ducked behind the pile of cardboard when Roux Long announced he was coming in the room. The dark sprite-like being stared at the bluenette, chunk of duck in her paws forgotten at least for the moment.

Seeing the staff in her hand, Nyx decided to choose her next words carefully. She had kept her bow in place and didn't touch it at all. "My name is Nyx. And you are?" She said. Nyx did have a small idea of what the fox-themed girl was but her guesses were often wrong.

"I won't promise you that," Lance said, not even needing time to contemplate the promise he was being asked to make. Certainly, it seemed so childish and desperate, less of a promise and more of a plea. A need to be absolutely certain that he was not going to abandon her, that he wouldn't run away when she needed him more than ever. "I can promise you even better. Every time I say 'Loong, Scales Shine', I will be there for you. Even when I can no longer do that, if my Miraculous gets stolen or my body is broken, I will always stand beside you. That is my promise to you, and I only ask for one thing in return. Believe in me. Just as you believe in yourself, believe in me."
