Spots ON!

Are you interested in a young, spotted heroine whose main villain attacks using purple butterfly? Or maybe an up and coming designer who isn’t afraid to take crap from people yet still melts when her crush talks to her? If that’s the case then Marinette Dupain-Cheng aka Ladybug is the girl for you!

The scene usually went down like this: Marinette would be late, or miss class entirely, or fall asleep during. Either way, Alya was her bestie. So she would always smile, cover for her, and make a little joke when Marinette asked. Because, up until now, Alya had run on the idea that well, Marinette had been this way basically ever since they’d met, so she had probably always been like this. But recently, that was starting to sound more like an excuse than a reason. 

Not that Alya was mad or anything. She still gave Marinette that gentle, understanding smile and she still took out–what was it, the Physics notes? “F’course. You know I got’chu girl. But you know…” Not her best transition, but she’d roll with it. “…I’m really starting to worry about you, Marinette. I know I haven’t known you for-ever, but if y’ask me, your whole sleep deal is gettin’ worse an’ worse. Is everything okay?”

Marinette pulled her own notebook out once she heard that Alya did, in fact, have the notes. If she had her way, she wouldn’t have to stay up all night on a regular basis chasing around an Akuma. However, it was becoming increasingly clear that Hawkmoth has no idea what a sleep schedule was. If this was during a break it wouldn’t be too much of a problem. However, school was currently in session and there wasn’t a long break anytime soon. Which meant she had to balance fighting Akumas and getting enough sleep. At least she hasn’t walked into class transformed. 

“Yeah, everything’s fine.”

A blatant lie to her best friend. This was definitely not one of her best moments but there wasn’t much she could say about the topic. Though Alya knew that Marinette has been caught in the middle of a few Akuma attacks before. Maybe she could tell her the partial truth?

“Oh? Congratulations. You should be proud of yourself for that. It’s not easy to get a high score considering you are a foreigner. Then again, the majority of my classmates don’t do that well either. I suppose it comes down to whether or not you’ve understood the material.”

There he goes, accidentally rambling for a bit when he’s supposed to be the quiet one. He cleared his throat for a moment. “I’m sure you’ll do just fine. If you’d like, I can help you study in the library whenever you need it. I have tutored Chie-san before a couple of times.” Plus, that would be a great opportunity to learn about her and how she transferred here in the middle of June.

“Thanks, that means a lot to me. I know I had to do decently to make sure I remain eligible for my program but I really want to do more than the bare minimum to prove it wasn’t a bad choice.”

Did it make it easier for her if the rest of her classmates didn’t do well? Technically. Though that was something Marinette never bet her scores on. She wanted to do well regardless of how she stacked up against the rest of her classmates. Hearing his kind offer brought a genuine sigh of relief from Marinette’s lips. Finding tutors that were able to explain the material in a way that made sense was difficult to find. She could imagine in such a small town like this finding another tutor like that would be near impossible. 

A frown was etched into her face as she thought about how to best phrase this. Adrien meant the entire world to her, so being forced to do this to him hurt so much. She wanted to be selfish and ignore what Gabriel wanted her to do. But she also knew how much going to school meant to Adrien... and she wasn’t prepared to take that away from him for her own selfish desires.

“It’s something else actually... I... I think we need to take a break from seeing each other.”

There. The painful words were finally out of her mouth as she turned her back to him. He didn’t need to see how much her face betrayed the words she said.

❝ Hawkmoth with a pet? I doubt he’s a cat or a dog person. But he doesn’t deserved hamsters. They’re too cute to be evil. Oh, I have a thought. Do you think he talks to his kwami? The kwami has to be following him the whole time he’s wearing the butterfly miraculous. Like how Tikki is with us. ❞ 

The younger bug couldn’t help but frowned a bit. She thought of the kwami that is with Hawkmoth right now. Are they scared? Do they miss Tikki and the other kwamis? She wasn’t sure what it would be like to live day after day being a super villain’s power source. Ladybug couldn’t and didn’t want to think about what could happen if Tikki or Chat Noir’s kwami was also capture as well. She place her hand under her own chin as she listens to the other talking about going to college one day. It was something she also thought about when she becomes a CEO of a fashion company and run her own fashion line. That was one of her dreams next to finding her own prince charming. But that was when she was a little kid of course.

❝ Life as a superhero would be so much better then. No more coming up with lame excuses with Alya, my teachers or my parents. Okay Alya might be a little on to me at times. But I’m glad she focus on Ladybug more then questioning me. Hey older me, do you think we’ll always be Ladybug? ❞

There was a quiet chuckle coming from the elder bug’s lips at the thought of Hawkmoth having hamsters. It was an incredibly amusing thought as she ultimately shrugged her shoulders. She would hope that Hawkmoth would have the decency to take care of his Kwami. Though based on the fact he was willing to Akumatize small children for the sake of his goals, she wasn’t quite sure now that she thought about it.

“I feel like the only pet that would put up with him would be a cat since they have a tendency to ignore most people. Though I would hope that he talks to his Kwami. I know Hawkmoth’s standards aren’t that high but I’d like to believe that he could at least manage that much.”

She paused and thought for a moment, that was honestly a good question. A question she didn’t quite have the answer for. Ideally, there would be a point where she wouldn’t have to be Ladybug any more. A time where people don’t have to worry about letting their negative emotions show.
