To my readers, thank you for all the suggestions! Some I would like to try and incorporate. Hopefully I'll be able too.
To answer one Guest, I don't think the bee has any true partner, so I will not be providing one for Queen Bee. I think the pairs of the miraculous are these:
Ladybug/Black Cat, Creation/Destruction, Good/Bad Luck
Peacock/Fox, Truth/Misdirection, Life/Death
Butterfly/Turtle, Change/Stability, Resurrection/Eternity
These guys all balance each other out. The bee doesn't balance out either of these; I think it's more likely to be a jack of them all, capable of working with all these pairs, or work solo. Even more so with bees' having a huge variety of tasks that they can do, especially if the bee miraculous is a mix of the whole hive.
So for this fic, Queen Bee doesn't have a true partner.
"Adrien," Belle grunts, wincing when she was bounced a little roughly. The blond didn't respond, green eyes locked ahead, hurrying to his room. The damp heat growing on his side just seemed to press him forward, eager to get to his bathroom, eager to treat that wound.
Stupid, stupid bird...
Slipping into his bathroom, he set her down on his counter, rushing about to get his medical supplies.
Belle sat woozily on the counter, a little dizzy, and trying to ignore the pain in her leg.
Her miraculous gives a beep, and Belle went ahead and willed it away, leaving a sore Marinette on the counter. A tired Juuno floats up, frowning at her.
Adrien hurried to her side, uttering, "Let me see that leg."
"It'll be fine after Ladybu-"
"Marinette."
She pauses, meeting his furious gaze. Sighing, she leaned back against the wall, letting the blond treat the injury, wincing at the rough touch of a warm cloth wiping the blood away. Tightly, he utters, "You shouldn't have done that."
"You were unguarded," she reasoned. "In suit I had a better chance than you." Licking her lips, she adds, "It's the peacock's purpose. I'm the caretaker, the guard. I can face-"
"Your shield can take anything. You can't." With a dark look, he bites out, "You're a healer, you can heal any damage. You could even revive the dead!"
"In most cases," Vixx voices. Juuno tiredly hums beside her, leaning on her.
"I rather have taken that hit than you. Especially when your tail wasn't fanned."
Scowling, Marinette jabs her head against Adrien's, startling the blond enough to draw away, gaping at her. He wondered, "Did... did you just kinda peck me?"
She turned away, scowling.
"Marinette," he sighs.
"Adrien," she bites back. Shooting him a one sided glare, she said, "I'm not going to let you get hurt if I can prevent it."
He frowns.
She glares, scowling.
Breathing in, he reaches for her and pulls her tight against his chest, burying his nose into hair, breathing her in. "Stupid bird," he mutters weakly. "You stupid bird..."
"Dumb fox," she returns, slumping against him.
A flare of pink magic sparked up, and ladybugs rushed in Adrien's room, wrapping around Marinette, healing her. Despite this, Adrien didn't release her, keeping her pressed tightly to him. Marinette wrapped her arms back around him, leaning into his embrace.
