I'm sorry… I just couldn't help. Wait, I'm not sorry! Anyway, you could see this as a midquel to my Day 3 story. Also, once again, I still use Vorpika as hero!Lila's name.

WARNING: Also set in an AU where Lila showed up right at the first episode and things went a bit differently… Including Master Fu giving out three Miraculous on that day. Not in chronological order.

Day 6: Loving Flaws

As Chat had to leave the patrol early for some reason (that his teammates believed was overly strict parents. Even with the secret identities, they just spent too much time with each other to not notice certain things), Vorpika looked at Ladybug, still wistful, and trying to hide it, ever since she had confessed her love to a girl so idiot to not jump her then and there. Even with the secret identities keeping her from making her move, Vorpika knew she had to do something. And who knew, maybe it was a crush being mistaken for something more-after all, they were still inexperienced teens.

"How is she?" Vorpika asked Ladybug.

"Who?" Ladybug replied.

"The idiot who wouldn't date you."

"She's not an idiot! She's one of the smartest people I know!"

"Uh-hu. And maybe, perfect?"

"Uh? Hardly. She's irascible, impulsive, nosy, tends to lie to get out of trouble, can hold the most ridiculous grudges and be quite cruel, doesn't quite get personal space…"

"And… You still love her?"

"It's the very things that made her destroy my bully."

"Your what?!"


"Can you believe it, Trixx? Ladybug, a former bullying victim." Lila said to her kwami after they returned home. "If nothing else, it explains why at times she has an even worse temper than mine."

"She also has described a rather familiar girl." Trixx pointed out.

For a moment Lila thought about it, but dismissed it. The universe was sadistic, sure, but it operated on too large a scale to make sure Ladybug was Marinette and set up a love square between her and Lila. They weren't some cartoon characters, after all.
