"Fair reasons," Beth offered as she poured tea for Adrien. "Sugar, honey, milk?"

"I'll try some of the honey." He smiles at her gently, then tilts his head, looking at something over the shoulder Plagg isn't sitting on.
The fairy in question looks at what remains of the cheese, frowning a bit. "You know, there wasn't really that much Camembert."

Disquietude let out a low sigh of relief. Seemed that neither of them had gotten the wrong idea. The last thing he wanted was the scare Adrien off. The third to last was anger Beth, third only to incurring the wrath of his own superiors.
He was starting to wonder how long he could stay here before any of them got suspicious...
As he mulled this over, Disquietude slowly munched on the apple. It had an interesting taste, sure, but he wasn't exactly sure what to do with the thoroughly chewed mush in his mouth now.

"Okay," Beth offered as she brought the tea and honey over to Adrien. "Dis. You'll want to swallow the chewed mush."
"I have half a wheel of Brie which is actually the same thing from a different region, Plagg," Beth noted to the cat fairy. "As for what I did as a deity... I could break armies apart and turn them on each other, strengthen the bonds between my allies," she shrugged off her jacket to show pale scars on her arms, "and even urn my own blood into a weapon. My title is Witch Of Blood. This is the mantle that Adrien now has. Though I still have access to all my old physical weapons."

Adrien takes the tea, eyeing the scars with a wary expression. "...can I possibly skip the self-harm part?" He points a finger at her shoulder. "And... there's something there that says you love someone? Is that part of your power?"
Plagg contents himself with eating a whole wedge of brie on top of Beth's head.

Oh... Well then... A human who could use her own biological makeup as a weapon? That was interesting, but certainly nothing new to Disquietude. After all, that's exactly what Præt'nos did, but it didn't damage them like it obviously did to her. The part about breaking armies apart, however... uh... Yeah, PROBABLY best not to get on this woman's bad side.
He had just been in the middle of swallowing, only subconsciously mindful of where the food was supposed to go after that, when Adrien suggested that Beth was in love with someone. The revelation made Disquietude violently hack up droplets of apple, eyes wide, ears erect. He could tell that? How?!
Did he... Did he KNOW?!
Wait...
Didn't he say he... wasn't aware how Disquietude felt about...?
Ohhhhh...
"Gee, look at the time!" Disquietude anxiously shouted, looking around the room for a clock to prove his point with. "I, uh... I better get back to Ten'dom before... before San- General Sanguine starts to... um...! Yeah, so, uh...!"

Beth nodded. "Dis. You're fine," she offered to the panicked Praen'tos. "And you would be right, Adrien. I have a fiancee back home, he supported me in coming out here actually. Just wish he had come along as well."

"Is that... right..." He blinks, then glances around, curious. "Hey, so... do you have a mirror, maybe? I'd like to see if I had something like that, myself."
Plagg shakes his head. "You hoping Ladybug likes you back, there?"
Adrien stares blankly at him, then turns to Beth beneath him. "Hey, could you say 'claws out', real quick?"

Ladybug...? Who's Ladybug?
Disquietude had just turned around, aimed to make a dash for the shadows, when he heard Plagg say that name. And the insinuation that Adrien liked this person.
"..........................."
The Præt'nos slumped, slowly tilting forward until he fell flat on his stomach like a lowly slug of self-pity.

"Open the cabinet behind you, there's a mirror there," she offered looking to Dis. "I think it's more of an idolization thing than an actual crush."
She sighed. "Why would I want to say 'Claws Out'? It sounds like a bad pun on close out."

Plagg suddenly sits up, eyes wide. "No, wait, I wasn't finished eating!"
The blonde man nods in thanks, then turns to look at the mirror as the black fairy gets pulled forcefully into the ring.

None of the goings on around him fazed Disquietude much. Beth's transformation, Adrien's inspection of his person... none of it mattered anymore. He had no reason to be there.

Beth blinked as Platt was pulled in. It wasn't long before what seemed to be black leather covered her form.a pair of ears was nested in her hair and they oddly seemed to twitch as a visor with green over the eyes came into existence.
"The heck?" She asked as the end of a belt swished behind her like a tail. "So Adrien Agreste is Chat Noir. Cool."

He blinks, then turns to look at her, confused. "...so you know Chat Noir?" His gaze moves to Disquietude, and he pauses, looking at something on the shoulder closest to him. He narrows his eyes, reaching out to gently poke it. He knew it couldn't be the demon's feelings for him, so what was it?

"Yeah, that's... that's really great..." Disquietude sighed, sinking deeper into the darkness around him as he slithered towards a dark corner. "I'll, uh... I just let you guys deal with that. Not much I can do to help you..."
