*THUMP THUMP THUMP*

*THUMP THUMP THUMP*

It WAS a quiet night on Floor 2, North Hallway, Boy's Dormitory for Radiant Heart Academy for Adrien, but then someone had to go banging on the wall.

The Wall on Chrono's side of the room.

The one with the duo of Koji and Darien...

There's a muffled voice that sounds vaguely familiar, "Hy Drn... Yu Ther?"

Adrien Agreste has posed:
Adrien Agreste was indeed there. He'd been trying for hours now to get ahold of Ladybug without any success. His communicator just kept going to their equivalent of voicemail. Thankfully Chrono had been out of the room, likely on a date with Rashmi, so that he could be Cat Noir for the time being. When the knocking begins though?

"Plagg, claws in."

The change happens rapidly and he's back to his usual self while a very tired Plagg flops down onto his shoulder panting softly. "Adrien, we haven't remained transformed that long before. I'm hungryyy."

"Sorry, Plagg, you know it's important. I'll go update Koji on things. Darien is his roommate." Sighing he turns and opens the mini-fridge to take out the little round container of cheese. "Eat up. We'll need our strength later."

There's no real response to the kocking save for a door opening and shutting in the hall, and then a knock to Koji's own dorm room. "It's me," he says simply through the door.

Koji Silvia has posed:
Opening the door, Koji is standing there in sweatpants, a Kamen Rider T-shirt, and his glasses, and really without preamble takes a breath to say...

"So I don't mean to alarm you, but this is your life now. Usagi, you know, Darien's girlfriend who I helped him get together with, has been possessed or something by a weird butterfly that's made her turn evil. Or at least mean? Sometimes it's hard to tell with girls, but anyways, Darien says he's okay, I've got this really ADORABLE picture of Naru as a plush, because apparently this and teleportation is her thing while she's bad, and don't get me started on how much that annoys me, but I digress. Darien told me to tell you to go find him because you've done this before, and to find a girl named Wako Agemaki because she can help purify UnSagi back into Usagi, and make Naru into a real girl again."

Finally a breath.

"You get all that?"

Adrien Agreste has posed:
Adrien Agreste stands there while Koji spills out all the details. Darien had said he would tell Koji himself when he'd offered to update him, but he hadn't realized he'd leave out the part about Adrien already knowing. He's polite though, so let's Koji get it out of his system before he holds up his phone displaying the photo of plush-Naru.

"They're called 'Akuma'... The evil butterfly thing, I mean. They were pretty common in Paris. Even I got changed a couple of times," he explains sounding just a bit tired, and not like his usual self. Just. Tired. "I was there when it all happened, and I hid because I knew what might happen."

A small pause before he corrects, "Well I didn't know the doll part. Every Akuma seems to have different abilities. I'll find this Wako Agemaki and let her know everything I do, though. I guess she's not someone you know either?"

Koji Silvia has posed:
Koji looks almost... relieved... and then holds up his phone, "I -kinda- know her."

Holding it out to Adrien, "Give me your number, I will go find her, I'll let her know, then I'll give her your number so you two can coordinate."

Almost looking apologetic, the long-haired boy adds, "Sorry about the long and short info dump... It's hard to know who around here knows what, and it's even harder to guess who's on what side of things... but if Darien says tell you, then I tell. Because he doesn't ask or say unless it's important. And it's Usagi, so this shoots up from important to VERY IMPORTANT."

Adrien Agreste has posed:
There's another little chime from Adrien's phone while they talk causing him to glance down at it with a nod. "Ah, Darien sent me her info card, too. I'll still send you my number though--We may as well coordinate on this."

Another few buttons are hit on his phone opening it up so that it can sync information with any nearby phones. "Here... If yours can read mine? Or I guess I can just text you too," he decides, not sure if Koji's phone does that feature. He did have one of the higher end models so far as phone went.

"It's okay, I get why you have to be careful with information. The girl I like is the hero that works in Paris," he admits, a bit sheepishly. That might explain why it was so difficult for him to explain THAT situation properly in the past.

"You're right though, this is important. If this Wako knows how to ... purify? Then we should find her quickly."

Koji Silvia has posed:
Koji's phone fills in all of Adrien's info just the moment after he asks, including a much more flattering picture of him from a web search instead of the one that is used for his school contact.

"Let me find her. If you know anything about these Akuma and how they work, or anything on how you could find someone who's been turned by them... you'll have a better chance of finding where they're all at. I can find Wako faster than you. Trust me. I'll be in touch."

As he closes the door to his room, Adrien can see that his phone never actually synched and exchanged with Koji, but there's a phone number, his face, and a couple other details populated now in a new contact there.

Behind the door Adrien suddenly hears "SET UP", followed by the unmistakable sound of the window being opened and shut from the dorm room...
