MIRACULOUS PLOTBUNNYXOVER

DRAGON MAID

Marinette Dupain-Cheng was a fashion designer working for Agreste Industries. She loved her job, but it could be stressful. So when she is invited by a few friends to grab some drinks after work she tended to get...carried away sometimes. The big hangover she got the next day could have told her that. No more cherry rum cokes for her.

She took a few aspirins, got up, her hair a mess and her eyes half-closed as she scuffled through her apartment lazily. She put on some slacks and a shirt and she was glad it was her day off. Otherwise work would be murder.

When she heard the doorbell ring, she thought that it would be the mailman like usual. So she lazily opened the door. "'Morning Theo-Oh!" She only saw red. But when her vision unblurred she saw all that red were scaled. Belonging to a huge reptile. With yellow eyes that hat slit pupils. It had four short horns on its head. Marinette shook her head first and then pinched her arm to make sure she was still not in a sort of half-drunken dream. Nope, the huge reptile was still there.

Curiosity won out from fear enough to see if she could see more of the giant reptile's body. It was slender and elegant, but still looked dangerous and muscular. Long claws sharp as sword, the red scales were joined by a near-golden yellow underbelly and black accents, bat-like wings folded up against its body, and sharp looking ridges on its back and a spade-like spike on the tip of its tail. Part of her said that it looked cool but another part quickly said it looked dangerous and it was a freakin' dragon big enough to stand to eye level with her in her apartment on the upper floor which meant it was huge and she should totally freak out now.

She did. She screamed, slammed the door shut, barricaded it with everything she could find, sat down in the corner, hugged her legs and rocked back and forth. Either there was a real dragon and she was screwed and dead, or she had lost her mind, which means she was still screwed and dead though in the less physical sense.

However, a lightningbolt shot from the window in the back of her apartment (idiot that she was, she forgot to close it. The Electricity spark and took on a very draconic shape, as the air turned damp as if it had rained and a strong wind blew through the apartment. The lightningbolt reshaped into a young woman.

She looked around Marinette's age, mid-twenties or so. She was wearing a maid outfit. Not a historically accurate maid outfit but an anime cosplay maid sort of outfit. She had dark blue almost black hair in a short bobcut. She looked of Asian origin, with amber eyes and a steely face from which you could read no emotion. The horns on her head and the tail poking out from under the skirt of her outfit looked familiar with their red coloring. "Wha?" Marinette blabbed.

"Marinette-sama, I have come to fulfill my debt." the dragon maid girl said as she gave a courteous nod.

Marinette blinked. "What?"

"Last night? You saved my life. I vowed to repay my debt and you asked for something. You wished for a cute maid to serve you, so I turned myself into one for you." the girl said.

"Last night...I was plastered of my ass. You cannot take anything I say serious. I barely remembered what I did yesterday..." Marinette said. "Sorry, what was your name, again?"

"Kagami Tsurugi, of the Weather Dragon Clan, and I am at your service." she said.

"So you are really a dragon? And you can turn into a human?" Marinette asked. "Did I really ask you to be a cute dragon maid?" That was the last time she would get drunk and binge maid café anime with Adrien. Or maybe just the latter.

"You did. I like the outfit, it makes me feel pretty." she spoke in such a calm and monotone voice that Marinette couldn't tell what emotion she was conveying.

"Why would you turn yourself into a maid for me? I didn't know what I did to save you, and I honestly think helping people in need is something that people should do naturally, but you don't have to feel obliged to serve me." Marinette said.

"I do! The most important thing for a dragon is their honor. I vowed to repay my debt, and I will." Kagami assured her.

"But...don't you have a family or home to go back to?" Marinette asked.

"I fled my world, I am in this largely non-magical human-filled world to get away from something. This allows me to stay hidden, have employment and a place to stay and if paying up my debt is keeping the house clean, you fed and look pretty, it is turning out better then I hoped." Kagami explained. She then looks up to down to check out Marinette. "It also doesn't help that you are a very attractive human woman, to whom I love to play the seductive maid to!"

"Gah! Please don't say anything like that. I don't regret saving you, but I regret that the alcohol turned my filter and memory save off in my brain." Marinette said as she sighed.

"Please let me do this. Honor is important to me, I can't go back home as I am now. Without this, I'd be alone, homeless and honor-less." Kagami said.

Marinette had an inner battle, one part of her still freaking out about dragons being real, able to turn into lightning and human and having a code of honor and wanting to become a maid. But the other half was the kind, helpful Marinette and she couldn't just kick Kagami out when she only wanted to repay her kindness in her own weird way. "Y-you can stay." she said.

Kagami's face gained a small smile. It was subtle, she was clearly not used to expressing herself. But Marinette felt like she smiled. "Thank you, Marinette-sama! I will take care of your every need, whether they are housework, chores or the sexual kind of need."

"Gah!" Marinette blushed. She made no secret she was bi, but she had her sights on her boss' son Adrien Agreste. "You are not going to be that type of maid, what is wrong with you?" It was embarrassing enough Kagami said that, but that she said it in that same calm monotone she normally used as if it was not a big deal...

"Yesterday, when you said you were 'plastered of your ass', and a fine ass I must say, you described something called the 'anime'..." Kagami made air quotes. "the maids tease and secude the masters. So are you playing the 'hard to get'!"

Marinette sighed. "I think there is a lot I still have to explain to you about the human world." Marinette's stomach growled heavily at that point. Ok, that was even more embarrassing.

"My first order of the day is fixing you a breakfast I presume?" Kagami said.

"...Yes, please." Marinette said. Later on, Marinette received a huge English-style breakfast with eggs, sausages, freshly bakes bread rolls, fried mushrooms, crispy bacon and breakfast cheeses. "This is good." Marinette said. "I haven't eaten this good since maman's cooking."

"I'm glad you are pleased, Marinette-sama." Kagami said, with the same soft smile she had earlier. She was glad to get some well-deserved praise.

"Ok, Kagami...Just to be clear, you are a maid, not a slave. You should not feel like you are obliged to do something you are not comfortable with, you are not allowed to risk your own health for me, and...I'm more of an employer, not a 'master'." Marinette said.

"You are kind and honorable, Marinette-sama." Kagami said.

"Er...thanks. Now, since you are staying here, we are basically roomies. I think that we could also be friends. No reason that because you are in my employ we cannot talk or hang out like friends." Marinette said.

"Friends..." Kagami said. "I like that." her soft smile filled Marinette with a bit of joy. "And it only a few steps up until we go from friends to lovers." And the moment was ruined.

"Gah, are all dragons this unrestrained about...you know?" Marinette asked.

"We dragons don't sugarcoat, we dragons don't hesitate." Kagami explained.

"Well, humans aren't always that open so don't forget to try and think before blurting something out. I am keeping it together, but other people would not if they found out you are a dragon. I'll say you are just a maid with a bit of an anime fascination hence the...horns and tail?" Marinette explained. Kagami nodded as she understood. "Now, where did you get this delicious sausages and bacon? I was sure I didn't have any meat."

"They are from my tail." Kagami said.

"...say again?" Marinette asked.

"Us dragons, like lizards can regenerate our tails, so we can eat them in time of need, they instantly regrow and they are a great source of protein." Kagami noted. "And I am not a poison dragon so they are safe for human consumption."

Marinette looked at the half the sausage still one her fork. She blinked a few times and slowly brought the sausage back to her mouth again, took a bite. It still tasted good and continued to eat it normally.

"I checked your schedule and I also saw you have visitors this evening, shall I buy groceries so I can prepare a feast by then?" Kagami asked.

Oh crud! She forgot she would have her friends Alya, Nino, Adrien, Tikki and Plagg over this evening. It probably meant she had to give Kagami a crash course in human behavior lest she be discovered. Her life got really complicated, really fast.

NOTES

Hello everyone. Now, due to an error earlier today with my computer which has cost me an entire chapter of my fanfic to be lost, I didn't feel like continuing that fanfic for the day but I still wanted to get something done.

Now, revealing the very first PlotbunnyXover. It is like my Miraculous Plotbunnyx, with the exception that it eithers includes plotbunnies with Miraculous Ladybug that cross over with a franchise or reimagine them to fit within a different world within that franchise.

So in this setting I reimagine the cast in a setting similar to that of an anime called Kobayashi's dragon maid. A series I recently got into. It is a slice of life anime in which the main character, a woman called Kobayashi, gained a dragon for a maid. In this universe Koboyashi and Tohru (the dragon maid) are replaced with Marinette and Kagami.

As I mentioned, I think Marinette, Adrien and Kagami and any pairing combination with them I feel can work.

Anyhow, it was a fun experiment, it may feel like I may not have wasted my day after all and these crossover concepts...hope to get to do more with them in the future.
