Okay, so I just finished Season 2 and I was hit with a wave of inspiration. Those last two episodes were nuts.
"Pound it!!"
Ladybug and Cat Noir had just defeated another villain and performed their trademark triumphant fist bump. Ladybug's earrings beeped and she gasped.
"I'd love to stay and chat, Cat Noir, but I gotta go before I transform back. Bug out!!"
She yo-yoed a nearby lamppost and swung away.
Cat Noir sighed, disappointed that he would still have to wait to see his partner's true self. But then, he was hit by a crazy idea.
"Follow her. You know you want to.
"But that would betray her trust."
"She betrays your trust every day by not revealing who she is. If you know who she is, won't that make her easier to romance?"
The hero huffed before pole-vaulting over a nearby building just in time to see a bright flash of pink. When the flash disappeared, Cat Noir almost fainted.
Ladybug was... Marinette?!?
Cat Noir knew he had just done something he never should have done, and he was hit with instant regret. He quickly ran across the rooftops and made his way to the Agreste mansion, hopping through his open window and de transforming on his bed.
"What did I just do, Plagg?"
"Sermfern sterperd", the Kwami mumbled over a mouthful of camembert. Adrien raised an eyebrow and looked at the little creature. "What?"
Plagg swallowed his cheese and repeated himself. "Something stupid. You know the number one rule is that the holders should never know each other's true identities."
Adrien rubbed his forehead and leaned back on his pillows. "Yeah, but... I was just overcome with curiosity. This whole time I've been in love with Marinette. I don't know how I didn't see it. They're so similar."
"It's because you're blind, like everyone else in this city", Plagg snarked, "But you got what you wanted, right? Now you're free to pursue your Lady as much as you please."
Adrien nibbled on his lip for a few silent seconds that felt like hours. He stood up looked down at Plagg. "We're going back out."
"Awww man. Can't I finish my cheese?"
"No time. Plagg, claws out!!!"
