Chat doesn’t raise his eyes, claws digging into the steel below his hands.
“Would you let me kill someone, my lady?”
He’s met with silence.
Ladybug looks over at him, scanning his face in concern.
“You’re serious,” she says, eventually, voice hesitant.
Chat finally looks up from the city below to meet her eyes. He doesn’t need to reply to her to confirm her assumption.
Ladybug looks at him with so much concern he feels sick. He doesn’t deserve that kind of look from her.
“Your friend must mean a lot to you," Ladybug says, voice soft.
Chat sighs again as he lets his eyes drift in the direction of the bakery.
“She does."
Or:
When Adrien realizes the high road is not the way to go, it somehow leads to Chat getting a little too close to Marinette. In their quest to dispose of Lila Rossi, unexpected friendships come to light.
