☾🐾☽  It was far from a rare occurrence for Adrien to run into class just as the bell rang. Flour usually dusted on his face and lightly on his clothes, it was one of the effects of being a baker’s son. Not that he was complaining at all, it was his choice to get up early enough to help with the morning baking or at least part of it. He slid in quietly and just in time to hear that that partners were just assigned to a group project. He didn’t know if he wanted to scream and hide or jump for joy when he heard that he got assigned to a certain Bridgette Cheng.

☾🐾☽ He desperately tried not to freak out right here and now over the assignment. Sadly class was over with meaning that he had no protection against having to talk to his crush. 

          ‘Relax Agreste you’ve faced down Akuma scarier than her.’

☾🐾☽ He tried to tell himself, to remind himself that he was Ladybug and he could do it... except he was failing miserably.

||I...uh... hi!||

Ladybug had a feeling she might die tonight. She followed Chat Noir after this villain like she did every other time. Except the sheer power the other possessed was nearly overwhelming. Her kevlar enforced costume was shredded, her body had bleeding lasecrations all over the place from Widower’s pet assistant. Her visor was cracked and her HUD was offline. She was basically naked in a super-powered fire fight. She couldn’t tell where her partner was, she lost track of him sometime during this clusterfuck of a fight. Her entire frame was trembling as she struggled to stay on her feet. 

To say that she was exhausted was a massive understatement. She knew that she could just, collapse at any moment. All of her limbs felt heavy despite her training. She didn’t have much more left to give, the only thing keeping her on her feet was that was what was keeping her alive. Ladybug knew that that the moment she hits the ground, she was dead. Being stubborn was one of the positive things about the Dupain-Chengs.

“C..Come on!”

She managed to cry out, as she was just barely dodging attacks by this point. She couldn’t outlast the other, she didn’t have the resources to do so. Because at the end of the day she was still just a civilian compared to a superpowered person. Ladybug’s luck wore out as she misstepped and lost her balance, she fell onto the floor with a solid thud. She was dazed for a moment, the exhaustion not helping as her stomach sunk. 

She just signed her death certificate.

╰ ☘ ╮Recovery was... slow to say the least. Working through all of the emotional pain and trauma, gaining her weight back at a steady pace. Working on just her as a whole was a long, and tedious project. Bridgette and Tikki were an invaluable crutch she had to lean on.  She was finally thinking that she was worth something again. She wasn’t sure how long she’s been with Bridgette now, but it was long enough that she really needed to consider going back to school.

╰ ☘ ╮That idea still terrified her. While she was getting better at not jumping at every single loud noise, there were still many deeply rooted problems she had. Things weren’t set in stone right now, but they had to prepare for any possibilities. She nodded in agreement, what Bridgette was saying made sense to her. 

⊰We can do that one... I... I don’t know if I’m ready for this Bridgette. Going to school is a big jump from just being able to be around large groups of people for more than five minutes.⊱

╰ ☘ ╮She put her pencil down, due to how long she’s been out of school, Tom and Sabrine got her several workbooks to try and get her caught back up. She looked down at her lap, her self-confidence was still nearly non-existent outside of a few specialized areas.

He’s died a total of 26 times. It was getting tiring.

Whenever he’d solve something, they seemed to come out of nowhere and jump him, damn his slow reaction times- What was that?

He heard footsteps, he turned around and saw a tinge of blue, he was getting ready to turn around and run when the figure came fully into focus, it was a young girl, a bit younger than him, he’d guess.

She wasn’t someone he recognised, why was she here?

“Who are you? why are you here?” He asked, then paused. “No, that’s not important, this place is dangerous, go back out and never come back,” he told her, well, more like warned and instructed her. “This place...will trap you otherwise.” He just hoped it wasn’t too late.

Something went wrong. The machine wasn’t supposed to do this.

Now here he was, on the floor, sighing. Where was he? he couldn’t recognise this place and his internal systems needed an hour or two to update and reboot. He gave a few more head turns, nothing that he could recognise.

He then saw a women running to him, oh, she was probably worried about him, so he rolled onto his stomach and tried to get up but...fell over.

“I uh...I may need some help, if you don’t mind, Ms.” His internal systems were still trying to stabilise, so moving around probably wasn’t the best idea.

nightmare

[meme]: Send my muse ‘nightmare’ and I will show you one of my muse’s recurring nightmares

@spotted-and-speckled

Marinette was standing in front of a house she was completely drenched as she took a deep breath and knocked on the door. She was in her Akumarized form... which was just her Ladybug costume. But she knew that she didn’t want to go and knock on that door knowing what she was going to have to do once she knocked on that door. But she knew she had to, if not then Hawk Moth would make her do it. She curled her fists and walked up to the house and knocked on the door. 

A middle aged man opened the door. Marinette could see a woman and two kids standing behind him deeper in the house. She could see the fear and wonder in the kids eyes and the woman just looked disappointed. The man moved to block Marinette’s view of the family, looking firm and unwavering. She didn’t want to do this but she didn’t have a choice. If she didn’t do it willingly. Hawk Moth would make her do it by taking control of the Akuma in her earnings. 

“By order of Lord Hawk Moth. You were charged and found guilty of aiding Adrien and/or Marinette along with attempted ploys against Lord Hawk Moth’s rule. Your punishment a year in the mines. I am here to escort you to the mines willingly or I will be forced to drag you there where your punishment will be much more severe.”

She spoke in a monotone voice as the father of the family looked back at his kids and wife and nodded to them. She recognized the family as the Devins, they visited her parent’s bakery about once a week before things went to hell. But the one she wasn’t supposed to bring in wasn’t the father but rather their oldest son. She knew the exact reason he was being brought in. He gave her a sandwich a week ago while she was sleeping. She only knew it was him by the initials left on the paper plate the food was delivered on.

“No Mr. Devin I’m not here for you... Lord Hawk Moth is... c...c...charging Michael. I...I’m sorry.”

She explained as Michael broke free of his mother’s grasp who started crying. And yelling at Ladybug to do something and not to take her baby boy. But Marinette knew that she couldn’t do anything, in fact this was helping him as much as she could. At least she could get him the best housing and the cleanest air section and she was able to argue down his stnencing time. But she had to walk away from the house listening to his little sister crying for him and yelling at her to stop and bring him home. But all she could do was mutter sorry over and over again as tears slid down her face as she walked father and father away from the family.

“Oh my god are you hugging me?” Bridgette was surprised when she felt Félix wrap his arms around her. [spotted-and-speckled]

“Did you not want me to?” Quickly takes him arms away from her. “Sorry...” Rubs his arm.

Spotted Criminal

Fresh out of a robbery, got away with it too, only to be stopped by a girl covered in spots, kind of reminded him of someone he knew.

“Nice spots kid, although I do have to ask what you’re doing here.” puts his hands on his hips. “Actually, it doesn’t matter, I need to blow, quick.” He looked around. “I need to get past you.”
