Summary:
Thirty-six hours of no sleep and sixteen akuma battles later, both Marinette and Adrien are dead on their feet- the former much more loopy whilst the latter a lot more talkative and perhaps grouchy. Next, put them in the same room as Lila who's now claiming that Marinette was akumatised- wait...

WHAT!?

Angry Adrien + Melodramatic Marinette + Lying Lila = Chaos.

This one-shot is not mine

Thirty-six hours.

She has been awake for:

Thirty.

Six.

Hours.

She, along with her ever-so-loyal Chat Noir has taken down sixteen akumas in a span of three days. Just after battling the first five, the duo were knackered beyond words, grumpier than edgy brutes in Hollywood films and definitely stuck with panda eyes, covered by their masks. One and a half days after the sudden burst of villains, it was adios to sleep for the dynamic duo. Chat Noir dropped the puns in exchange for a more...colourful set of vocabulary, which Ladybug would have scolded him for on a normal day; they're meant to be role models for the children after all.

Moreover, her infamous clumsiness from her civilian side has gradually seeped into her vigilant half, making the fights harder to battle and probably causing her partner more distress than help. Scratch that- she definitely caused him a lot of distress. She collapsed from a roof into la Seine from exhaustion after releasing her cleansing light. The dirty, freezing water and the sound of Chat Noir's desperate screams gained her another twelve hours of consciousness. (The ten-minute lecture and yelling from him afterwards may have helped too but no way in hell was she going to admit that).

"I can't go to sleep just like that mon Chaton...I have school in a few hours..."

"Then skip it! Tell your parents that you're sick or something- just PLEASE get some sleep, Bug."

"I have an important test-"

"Important my ass- your health is the top priority here!"

"So is yours!"

"I'm used to staying awake for so long anyways so-"

"LISTEN UP, NOIR! IF I'M GONNA SLEEP, SO WILL YOU. IF YOU STAY AWAKE, SO WILL I. SO STOP YELLING AT ME-"

Of course, the pair were interrupted by another god-forsaken akuma and they violently swore at Le Papillon and his never-ending madness. Ladybug muttered very morbid things such as how she was going to skin the old man alive once she gets his miraculous or something like that.

This was all two hours ago.

Marinette was on her last legs now as she struggled to get up the stairs to her form room. Quickly chugging on her tenth energy drink, Marinette disposed of the can somewhere secretly (they're banned in school after all) and flopped down onto the nearest desk. She inhaled sharply, reaching for the travel mug she secured in her bag, filled with the most sweetest, sugary, coffee one could ever have. Tikki mustered up the energy to pat Marinette's collarbones with her frazzled paw, hiding in her dark turtleneck collar rather than the purse for once in order to warm up.

A few more minutes passed by but they felt like seconds to the heroine in disguise, nuzzling her mug. She internally prayed that taking three showers in a row managed to get rid of the disgusting river smell out of her hair before dashing out of the house. That thought process was interrupted when she clipped the mug's lid off.

She smiled for the first time in twenty-four hours and pursed her lips for a sip.

"Girl? You're early again? Wow!" Alya's energetic voice was like a slap against her face, almost causing the poor girl to drop her life-saving beverage. She sent her best friend a pitiful pout, ignorant to the rush of her classmates heading to their seats. The mass majority of them gave their class president a surprised look, wondering if pigs will start flying next at the sight of her early presence. Though, there was some tension among the others, no thanks to the recent incident between Lila and Marinette's 'supposed' stealing and bullying.
