~Author Note~

Hi, I'm not really sure how to write this but I may be taking a short break from writing. I usually post a few times a week, or at least once but if you are in America you know there is a lot of tension currently. Not only is the Coronavirus rampant here, but my state was one of the strongly effected places. I have been in quarantine since the beginning of March and haven't left since. I'm not in a great mental state because of this. I would also like to address the protests going around the US for Black Lives Matter. I'm here to say that I hear you and I stand with you. I have signed the petition for the cowards who murdered George Floyd to be arrested and would join the physical protests if I was not immune deficient. Keep fighting back. Riots are the language of the unheard. If you are going to a protest, please wear a mask and stay as distant as possible. Wear goggles to protect from tear gas and pepper spray. I believe in you more than words can describe. Please continue to fight for justice: protest, sign petitions, and donate.

With the combination of these two things, I may be taking a short break. I'm not feeling super up to the task of writing while feeling so dark and though currently, the story is slightly dark I don't want it to be ruined because I wrote it while in a bad place (which is why it went the route it did to begin with). I feel as though my focus should be on trying to help others fighting for change right now because that's what Ladybug and Chat Noir are all about. Thank you for understanding and thank you for reading. Please stay safe and positive during this pressing time.

Bug out! ✊🏻👋🏻🐞🐱🖤 -NB

~small update: the quarantine for me has been called off early and will be ending next week. There have been over 50 protests around the US and I'm incredibly proud of you. The president has now called the national guard in and is trying to "dominate" us. Please stay safe out there!
