Chapter Text
eudaimonia ─
Chat Noir was late for the patrol. Awfully late. But thankfully, he was almost to the destination.
Just wait a little bit longer, Ladybug... Chat thought to himself as evening began settling; lights casted strange shadows─lovely hues of orange, pink, yellow, and not quite red began emerging.
He turned the last corner. Instead of seeing his partner awake, he found her sleeping soundly, still clad in her distinguished scarlet costume.
A lazy, filtered sunlight cascaded on Ladybug, contrasting with her dark hair and illuminating freckles that he rarely saw. Ladybug looked peaceful.
But a beep notified that she was about to transform back. As much as he didn't wish to wake her beautiful form from her sleep, he had to.
Chat gently shook her awake. Ladybug immediately stirred, but a sleepy look possessed her features. Breathtaking. But also hard to tear his eyes away from. The blonde quickly informed her of her Miraculous's state, and she quickly left the scene.
As Chat waited for her to return, he waited with a smile that was kind to his face. Chat was glad to catch her in this fragile scene. A beautiful picture, as if straight from a painted picture book of Paris.
─ (n.) lit. "human flourishing";
a contented state of being happy, and healthy, and prosperous
