[ Just don't call her Beauty Queen, someone's already got the trademark on that one. And, well, she debates for a moment on whether or not to just tell the truth, and ultimately decides there's little reason to hide it. The Piper of two and a half years ago isn't the Piper of today. She doesn't need to cash in on her father's name, never did, but now she also doesn't feel the need to hide it, not in this scenario anyway. She lifts herself up and back, not at all minding the distance to the ground as she perches precariously on the railing now, with both hands on either side for balance, feet swinging idly. ]
It is. He's going to be filming here in Paris, but he wanted to spend some time living here first, learning the language and the culture. My dad takes his research pretty seriously.
[ Something she's proud of him for, really, and if not for it she probably would have floundered countless times during her quests with Jason, Leo, and the others, so in a way his dedication had saved all of their lives AND the world on at least one occasion. ]

In the meantime, while he’s listening to her story, he can’t help but feel like this should sound familiar to him somehow, like he should know who Piper’s talking about; but he doesn’t exactly follow the movie biz, aside from his mother.
He leaves that kind of thing to his dad. ]
Yeah, that is pretty serious.
[ he sounds impressed, but no less playful. ]
Well, if he ever needs a personal tour guide or a tutor, you just let me know.

Does that mean we'll be swapping numbers? Something tells me we don't have the same carriers.
[ She can do it too, make funny. See? Because Iris Messages and superhero communicators? ]

You could use the Cat signal.
[ a beat. ]
Cats are cooler than bats.
[ he’s just sayin’. ]

[ Cat actually chuckles, ecstatic that she seems receptive of his jokes.
It’s then of course that he can hear some noise coming from the door leading inside from the balcony where they’re standing. He stops—listening, just in case his ears are playing tricks on him or something.
Buuut, they’re not. He can hear a door open and close. Bathroom, maybe. ]
Ah. Sleeping beauty wakes.

But despite how terrible it is, or maybe BECAUSE of how terrible it is, Piper laughs, then shakes her head with a grin until they both hear the sounds of Jason stirring. Immediately her focus shifts. He'll probably catch the little sigh of relief, under her breath. Whenever something like this happens she knows that no matter how much she tells herself that he'll be fine, she always worries. Sitting around fretting doesn't do any good, though, so she's grateful for the fact Cat Noir came back to check on him, and to keep her from fretting while she waited. ]
Yeah. I should go check on him again.
[ She's not sure if Cat wanted to see him for himself but she doubts it, and Jason will still need more rest. She can fill him in in the meantime, and eventually they'll see each other again. Next time, maybe.
She turns back to Cat now with a smile. ]
Thanks for coming back to check on him. You didn't have to do that, so I appreciate it. He will, too.
no subject
Think nothing of it. Tell him I said hey.
[ He grins. ]
And the next time there's trouble, be on the lookout for me.
no subject
Try not to find trouble TOO fast, Tom Cat. Till next time.
[ And with that, a wave, and a teasing grin, she's gone through the door. ]
