Summary
After his father’s arrest, Adrien goes silent. He has something to say, but can’t get the words out around people. They treat him differently–they are all walking around egg shells around him as if he might break (even more, that is). Carefully picking each word to say to him.
He hates it. Hates that the entire world knows. But it had to be done. Now both Paris and him are free of his father.
Thankfully, there’s Ladybug, who also feels bad and blames herself–after all she is the one who put his father into jail, that’s what she tells herself, anyway. Chat Noir is always disagreeing, telling her with the little voice he actually has left that it had to be done and now everyone is safe thanks to them.
But Chat Noir isn’t the same and Ladybug notices that. He doesn’t talk as much as he used to, and he always found words important.
She decides that it’s now save to reveal their identities. She thought Chat Noir would be happy.
He isn’t.
