It was all too much for Marinette, crushed under the weight of being Ladybug and the Guardian. She relinquished it all, including her memories. Now, Sabine must take up the mantle while dealing with her own loss.
But absent any duty, obligation, expectation, trauma, or superpowers, Marinette was the same as she always was. Within her was an unwavering sense of justice, bravery, defiance, and kindness. The call to action beckons, and Marinette will always answer, just as she did the first time.
Sabine does not like this one bit.
