  Adrien's black kwami popped out of his blue school bag, tilting his tiny head curiously. "Hey kid." the tiny cat folded his arms. Adrien blinked, glancing down at his kwami. "huh? oh what Plagg?" plagg raised an eyebrow at his master. "what's got you so nervous kid? you are jumpier than usual." he teased. Adrien rolled his eyes fondly. "I am going to do it today Plagg!" plagg narrowed his eyes. "do what...?" he queried. Adrien grinned. "i am going to reveal myself to ladybug." he gushed.

Plagg almost choked in surprise. "what?" he exclaimed, hardly able to believe it. *finely! it's about time!* he thought in relief. Plagg was tired of waiting for the love square to end. though he would never admit it, he wanted his master to be with ladybug. Not that he cared for all the romance. In fact, he would rather there wasn't any. But he knew how important this was to his master. *if they know who they are, then i'll get to see tikki again.*

His whiskers twitched in excitement. It would be nice to have another kwami around. It would be a good change from listening to nothing but Adrien's love-sick whining all day.

Adrien smiled at Plagg who forced a poker face. "oh, uh, congratulations kid!" he praised briefly before demanding cheese. Adrien grinned. He sighed dreamily, head in his hands and Plagg disappeared into his bag once more, munching the cheese.

He tried not to gag as he grimaced in the bag. *humans are so weird.* he thought, closing his eyes and slipping into a light sleep.

Plagg was awoken to a wet drop hitting his nose. the kwami blinked in confusion. He was indoors so it couldn't be rain. Looking around himself, he turned his head upwards to see his owner fidgeting on his bed. Plagg realized that he had been hit by Adrien's sweat.

Yawning, Plagg knew his kid needed support, despite how tired the kwami was.

He flew out of the blue school bag, hovering before his owner. "hey kid, what's up?" he meowed, a touch of concern laced his voice. What could have gotten his kid so stressed?

Adrien blinked back at his kwami. "Plagg, I'm freaking out!"

Plagg lifted an eyebrow. "why? Have you hit puberty again?" he snickered.

Adrien's face turned red. "no-shut up!" he turned away to hide his awkward expression. Plagg smirked, his question had caught the kid off guard, that's for sure!

"i am going to reveal to ladybug. What if she hates me after this? What if i say something wrong? What if Ladybug refuses to look when i detransform and never trusts me again?" Adrien was clawing at his hair, panicked.

Plagg's green eyes widened. *wow, and I thought that ladybug was a drama queen!* he thought, folding his arms.

his paws itched to tease Adrien more but he was pretty sure that in his current state, the boy wouldn't be able to handle it.

With a sigh, Plagg softened his gaze. "look kid. Ladybug loves you. She has told you as Adrien and as Chat noir. There is no way she hates you as either. And she's dated and kissed both you with and without the mask. So calm down and take a deep breath." he soothed carefully. Inside, he groaned. *i am turning into Tikki!* he inwardly facepalmed at how cheesy he sounded.(no pun intended)

But the speech seemed to ease Adrien's fears, and the color returned to his face again.

"okay Plagg, you're right." plagg bit back a retort. *of course I am*

Then, Adrien patted his kwami fondly on the head. "thank you Plagg."

Plagg froze for a moment. He was surprised by how soothing it was to feel his master's fingers trace over his fuzzy head. Fighting back a purr, plagg pushed his hand away gently. "yah, whatever kid, what are you waiting for?"

Adrien stood up with a grin. "you're right!"

The blonde punched the air, green eyes narrowed in determination. "Plagg! Claws out!" he shouted, bringing his hand close to his face. Plagg shut his eyes as he was sucked into his glowing ring.

Painlessly, plagg was absorbed into the miraculous. Plagg rolled his eyes as Adrien struck ridiculous poses as he was clad in a black, leather catsuit.

Though he was no longer in the room, Plagg could still see and hear everything that went on around his owner. As a bonus, plagg could also sense Adrien's thoughts and emotions.

Adrien, now Chat Noir, leapt out his bedroom window, extending and twirling his metal baton.

Jumping from roof to roof, chat Noir came to a halt. Baton in one hand, he retracted the staff and flipped open his phone. Chat noir took a deep breath as he dialed his Partner's number.

Plagg held his breath. *this is it, here he goes!*

Chat noir grinned when no one answered. *leave a message!*

"Hey bugaboo! Meet me in front of the eiffel tower, i have something to tell you! Won't you come? of course you will, i'm the cat's meow!"

He purred cheekily, ending the message and continuing his way to the Eiffel tower.

Plagg glowered, unimpressed. *really? The cat's meow?* he rolled his eyes. Plagg wanted to slap his owner at how much of a dork he was!

Chat noir leapt carelessly, foot slipping on a gutter and flinging him off the roof. Chat noir yowled, extending his baton to soften his landing. His staff caught on a rock and tipped him to the ground. Chat noir slid clumsily on his stomach, into the mud. It had begun to rain! Blushing in embarrassment, he struggled to his feet, brown water dripping from his whiskers, face coated thoroughly in mud.

Plagg snickered. *he looks like Weredad!* he thought in amusement. Remembering the time when Marinette's father was turned into the brown, mangy supervillain that had terrorized paris not long ago.

Chat noir struggled to his feet, slip-sliding on the mud, barely keeping balance.

At last, he escaped the murky trap and bent over, panting. Plagg felt his thoughts as if they were his own. *shoot! Mlady's probably waiting for me, in the rain!* he staggered towards a nearby store, teeth chattering from the cold.
