What It Takes To Blossom
Word Count: 1,713 words Summary: Their strategies aren’t working. So what if they changed the game? What if they made it unpredictable? Desperate to throw Hawkmoth off balance, Ladybug and Chat Noir once again swap Miraculouses… only this time, it’s intentional. And permanent. The only problem? Hawkmoth isn’t the only one thrown off balance, now. This team might just have to start from square one to get it right. Notes: This was written for the @newbeginningszine, and the beautiful collaborative artist I worked with was @bloodyyanya!

Lady Noire barely had enough time to extend her baton and knock her partner unmercifully to the far end of the rooftop, where he nearly went skidding over the edge.

There was no time to waste. Their plan would work.
Well, she hoped it would, at least. This was the first time they were putting it to use.
Today’s villain was already proving to be the unpredictable sort that would likely keep them moving, barely allowing them a moment to plan or adapt. But maybe that was to the duo’s advantage.
Unpredictability, after all, was the whole point.
