"You better be on your best behavior," the mayor grunted.
It was an award ceremony for the two super heroes of Paris. Things had not always gone the smoothest with public appearances judging by the way the mayor's eyes flickered to Chat Noir. The last time there was a public ceremony, Chat had accidentally goaded an artist into becoming an akuma. Chat had done his best to forget the Copycat. Ladybug on the other hand was more aware of the obsession people placed with Ladybug. So many people had their lives circling around her now and spent their days thinking about her that she felt a little uncomfortable accepting an award for their heroism. The obsession with Ladybug was unnerving.
The Chat merely smiled at the two of them. Ladybug rolled her eyes. At least he could find the situation funny now. However, because of their last incident, Ladybug could not avoid coming to this ceremony. Her partner may have been the best she could ask for but he had no mind to mouth filter. He just blurted out things on instinct and they could not risk another akuma just because he was running his mouth again.
"I can assure you, sir, that he is completely house trained."
Her voice was soft and serious as she tipped her head toward Chat. To his credit, the lines of the mayor's face barely twitched. He simply pulled straightened his jacket and the sash around his torso. Chat looked affronted that the two would think so little of him. To Ladybug he replied, "He'd better be."
