Broken

So @terrible-miraculous-ladybug-aus posted this, and I may have gotten a little too into the idea, so here have some chlonath~

So imagine, the gang got the peacock miraculous back from Papillon and one day during battle, for ~reasons~ Chloé was the one who had to elect a new miraculous holder to help them. They didn't know the peacock was damaged at the time, and her gut or magic or whatever led her to give it to Nathaniel.

So she knows Nathaniel is Paon while no one else does (and like canon, everyone knows who she is). After the battle she went to get it back and he had a slight cough. They both just brushed it off as him coming down with a cold or something.

She continues to give it to him every once in a while to help them in battle, and after maybe the fifth or sixth time, when she's taking it back from him, she realizes that it's making him cough like that, and it's getting worse. She decides not to give it to him (or anyone) after that.

One day there's one particularly harsh battle. They all take a pretty hard beating, and barely come out on top. The next day while walking out of school, Nathaniel asks her why she didn't ask for his help.

She looks at him like he's crazy. "It's making you sick, you idiot."

He shrugs. "I don't mind a little coughing if it keeps Papillon from defeating you."

She steps in front of him, stopping him dead in his tracks, and points a finger to his chest. "Listen up, Kurtzberg. We fight to protect Paris and that includes you. So, no, I am not going to ask for your help if it means endangering you." She walks away without another word, and Nathaniel wonders why his cheeks feel warm.

It's a few weeks later when another battle has them at the end of their rope. Nathaniel happens to be close by. He watches as Queen Bee gets knocked aside and runs up to help her get back up.

"Let me help you."

"No, get out of here," she grunts as she struggles to stand. They turn when they hear Rena and Carapace scream in the distance. They both go down and Ladybug and Chat Noir run after the akuma. Queen Bee looks back at Nathaniel. She can’t endanger him again. He looks at her. She has to endanger him again.

"Let me get on your back," she eventually says.

She has him take her to Master Fu's and gives him the Peacock miraculous again. After the fight, he can hardly speak with how hard he's coughing. She makes sure he gets back home and to his bed.

He's barely awake, but he can feel her weight on the edge of the bed and the cool touch of her fingers brushing back the hair on his forehead. "Thank you," he hears her whisper as he fades from consciousness. "I'm sorry."

Weeks go by without further incident. She's determined to make sure they never need his help again and she fights accordingly. He can tell when he watches the news coverage; he can see her giving every fight 110% to protect him.

He feels bad that he can't help. He also starts to feel a great warmth in his chest every time he sees her.

It's been at least a month, maybe two, when Papillon pulls something crazy and suddenly the heroes are hurting again. His eyes are glued to the news coverage on his phone. He sees it when Ladybug goes missing and comes back with Rena and Carapace. He sees it when Chat Noir goes missing and brings back Queen Bee. They're still not strong enough.

Queen Bee doesn't leave the battle. He watches her get knocked about and screams in his head for her to come ask him for help.

Finally, he can't take it anymore.

Nathaniel runs to Master Fu, who looks at him with heavy warning in his eyes and asks if he's sure. He's never felt more sure about anything.

"What are you doing here!?" Queen Bee screams when she sees him. He scoops her up in his arms and leaps away just in time to avoid the akuma's attack.

"Helping you."

"You can't! I don't want your help! Get out—!"

"Chloé." He looks her dead in the eye and she hates his clear resolve. "I'm not going to sit by and watch you get hurt."

She also hates how much she appreciates him.

She doesn't say anything more about it until the battle is over. When she gets him back home again and he detransforms, he immediately collapses. She gets him to his bed and snatches up the miraculous.

"What were you thinking!?" She wants to sound angry, aggressive, biting. She wants him to regret his actions.

After a coughing fit though, he just looks up at her with weary eyes and states, "You were hurt."

She clenches her jaw and swallows down a lump in her throat. She tries to sound as threatening and menacing as possible as she leans over him and says, "Never do that again," but the tears she's holding back are emerging in her voice and they both know it. "Promise me."

He smiles softly, sadly. But he does not promise.

She doesn’t say anything more. She just sits at the edge of his bed and combs her fingers through his hair until he falls asleep.

The next time it happens, seven weeks and three days have gone by. Chloé knows it’s been seven weeks and three days because no matter how hard she tries, she can’t silence the voice in the back of her head that counts every day he continues to cough.

They’re in dire need again, and they’re just thinking that maybe it’s time to name a new hero to help when he shows up.

“Are you crazy!?” she screams as he runs up and intercepts a projectile headed straight for her.

“Yell at me later, Bee,” he says, and she silently promises she will.

The battle is tough, even with all the extra help. The akumas are getting stronger, or maybe Papillon is getting smarter. Either way, she worries that this will happen again, and sooner than she’d like.

Ladybug’s cure is still making its way through the city when Queen Bee grabs Paon’s arm and drags him away.

“Do you have a death wish!?” she hisses as she pushes him around a corner. He doesn’t answer. He hardly seems to have even heard her. His attention is on something on her head. “What?”

Queen Bee stiffens as his gloved hand settles over her cheek, thumb swiping just under her eye. It almost stings before a flash of magic washes over her and a look of relief washes over him.

“Don’t be stupid,” she says, taking his hand and pulling it away from her face. “Any injuries we get in battle heal. You know that.”

His eyes finally find hers then and she hates how much pain hides behind that steeled look. “That doesn’t make it any easier to watch.”

She wants to think he means watching everyone get hurt. She knows he means her.

“You shouldn’t have come,” she finally says, voice much quieter. He opens his mouth to argue, but she continues before he can. “Don’t think I don’t hear you coughing in class. I know you still haven’t fully recovered from last time. It’s been two months and the effects still linger. I don’t know what will happen if this continues but quite honestly, I don’t want to find out.”

He says nothing and she knows it’s because he would do it again anyway.

His lack of self-preservation will be the end of her.

His miraculous beeps rapidly then; a final warning. She peeks around the corner to see that the others have already disappeared. “You’re safe,” she says, and in a wave of crackling blue electricity, Nathaniel appears before her. She’s ready to catch him this time.

Nathaniel is unconscious in her arms as Queen Bee leaps from rooftop to rooftop. She thinks he’s still asleep when she sets him down on his bed.

“Stay,” she hears as she’s about to climb out the window. His voice is weak and if it weren’t such a quiet night in the city, she thinks she wouldn’t have heard it. She considers pretending she didn’t.

But she makes the mistake of looking at him.

Chloé sits at his side and combs her fingers through his hair until long after he falls asleep.

He’s not in school for the rest of the week.

The next time they need help is only a few weeks later. Queen Bee goes straight to Master Fu’s, determined to give Sabrina the mouse miraculous. Nathaniel beats her there.

“Get out of here!” she shouts as she stomps forward, holding up a pointer finger threateningly. Le Paon takes her hand and lowers it to his chest.

“I’m already transformed,” he says before she can continue. “Yell at me later.”

“That’s what you said last time! I can’t yell at you when you’re feverish and coughing!”

He squeezes her hand with a soft smile before letting go. “Come on, Bee. We have a city to save.”

That night, as she brushes back his hair, she whispers, “I’m going to name a new miraculous holder.”

She can’t tell what kind of expression he’s making. He just looks tired.

“You are never going to use the peacock miraculous again, do you understand?” He tries to respond, but a coughing fit takes him instead. She helps him sit up and drink some water before laying him back down. His coughing subsides, but she hates how labored his breathing is. “I promise we’ll call in extra help if we need it,” she continues. “So please—,” she makes sure he’s looking at her again, “—don’t do this to yourself again.”

He doesn’t say anything. She knows it’s because he doesn’t want to promise that. She moves her hand to gently caress his cheek and corrects herself. “Don’t do this to me again.”

At that, his expression softens with a tiny sigh, but he still says nothing. Her fingers find a gentle rhythm combing through the hair at the base of his neck and silence settles over them. Chloé resigns herself to staying until he’s long asleep and watching helplessly when this happens again.

She’s surprised when his voice emerges in a quiet whisper.

“I think I’m falling in love with you.”

Her movements pause for only a moment. The words stir up a warmth in her chest, even if she had already known them to be true. It brings a soft smile to her lips.

“Then stay alive for me,” she whispers back. “Stay alive so I can fall in love with you too.”

Nathaniel’s eyes fall shut and his chest sinks with a long breath out and she knows that she’s already falling in love with him too when she sees his smile.

“Yes, my queen.”

“You promise?”

“I promise.”

I want to know your Paon! Nathaneäl and Bee! Chloe Headcannons please! I just saw that you had a hand in Kara's beautiful PaonBee kiss. Also, I'd love to see Chloenath drabbles or anything too. I'll try to comment on your stories ASAP!!

FIRST OF ALL!, **pets head** thank you for initially requesting the great @karawek in the first place with that Paon!Nathanael and Bee!Chloe ask, because look at what beautifulness it gave us all!!! ^__^ i seriously never really entertained the idea of Le Paon!Nath but look how dapper and smooth he looks!?!?! amazing

And I’m so happy you’re asking about our headcannons… my overall ship name for the this ChloNath hatessquare is Buzzkill so that’s the name of the fic… I’m about half way through a first chapter for it but I’ll share some of the notes I got going on!! I’ll tag you once i post the first chapter!

Cracks knuckles… so if you’re interested this is a-not-so-brief summary of our headcannons thus far … you can read them (there are some spoilers for the fic I’m writing) but if you want to wait for a fic THAT’LL TAKE ME FOREVER TO WRITE or get a head start on everything… it’s your choice :D also if you have any ideas or thoughts send them to me and we can edit this for sure:

Buzzkill - A Summary

This is an aged up AU, kids arein final year of school

Over the years, Hawkmoth hasbeen fighting Ladybug and Chat Noir… to similar lack of success as we’ve seenof him so far

Desperate, Hawkmoth decides thathe needs to change up his strategy maybe??? and looks to enlist in getting somehelp in dealing with LB and CN

He starts to look at possiblepeople that could take on the peacock miraculous – someone weak andcontrollable, that he can manipulate to help him, because of cause he’ll needthe miraculous back once he has his wife back

Looks through his mostsuccessful akumas

Volpina- his obvious firstchoice, she hates Ladybug, thereforewould probably be very motivated in his mission. However one fear in giving herthe peacock miraculous, that worries Hawkmoth, is that she would must likelybecome overly attached to the power, and Hawkmoth needs someone he can control,Lila is too unpredictable and unstable.

Dark Blade – almost successful,but as a politician, public figure, and adult, would probably be difficult tocontrol

Lady Wifi – super OP, but tooattached to Ladybug.

Puppetteer – nah, a kid?Probably wouldn’t make the best henchmen

The Bubbler – no, can’t standthat kid -___- probably wouldn’t take instruction well either… toorebellious

Mr. Pigeon – just no. That guywas weird

etc, etc, etc… he goes throughlots of past victims… no one seems right for the situation and also needssomeone who can wield the peacock miraculous, so they need to have that certainje ne sais quoi? a creative mind and big heart.

Suddenly Hawkmoth senses thenegative feelings of someone in the city

It’s Nathanael … poor boy is having a bad day/week/life

He’s pretty sure his old crush,Marinette, is in love with Adrien Agreste, how can he compete with that?!!?

His life is not going how heenvisions it in his comics and art. In his comics, he’s a hero, he wins theaffections of Marinette, and he stands up to bullies. But in real life he’s shyand introverted, can barely make it through class without sleeping. AND CHLOEIS A BULLY, mean.

Gets rejection letters for artschools he applied to … this is like the last straw, poor boy

SAD. MY TOMATO SON IS SAD ANDNEEDS A HUG

EVILLUSTRATOR, Hawkmoth senseshis negative feelings and is reminded of Evillustrator… sigh… such a promisingakuma, the ability to draw up anything?? an artist only limited by hisimagination?? Could make for an interesting Le Paon…

Not only that, but this boy isvery “weak”, someone that Hawkmoth can easily control and manipulate, and evenbetter he can promise him the chance for power and even then if he must, hecan threaten him via blackmail, what better motivation is there than doingsomething in order to keep a loved one safe (Marinette)

Enter Le Paon!Nathanael Villian

His mission from Hawky: to capture the Ladybug and Chat Noirmiraculouses… Hawkmoth will send out an akuma to distract them, Le Paon will goin for the kill

Basically do as Hawky says, or bad things will happen

Nath is super bummed, but with the miraculous and power, Nathanael slowly gains confidence inhimself, he is re-given the power to bring to life what he draws like when hewas Evillustrator, but now with a magical peacock quill… he hates to admit it, cause he hates Hawkmoth and everything, but he’s enjoying being Le Paon (apart from the whole evil henchman thing)

He starts to question what Hawky’s plans are with the miraculous… he doesn’t know how powerful they are together (Hawk obviously kept the godlike powers tidbit to himself) but Nathanael starts to get intrigued… questions he’s kwami about it

Meanwhile…

Queen Bee!Chloe’s Hero Origin

Chloe finds Bee Comb amongsther mother’s old things (DUN, DUN, DUN!!!!) ????

Wants to join Ladybug and ChatNoir team! SUPER PUMPED, this is like her dream come true!!! LADYBUG IS GOING TO BE HER BEST FRIEND FOR REALS NOW

But every time she goes out tofight an akuma, she runs into some peacock a**hole (huhuhu) who is planning onattacking Ladybug and Chat Noir during akuma attacks

She foils his plan every time,cause she’s awesome

But gets more and morefrustrated though that she can’t manage to meet Ladybug because she’s too busy kickingpeacock boy’s a**

Also struggling with being ahero that’s going unnoticed, and being a good person, her kwami appreciates hersassiness, but scolds her quite a bit for her “stingy” behaviour

So she tries being a better person as both Chloe and Queen Bee, but hold habits die hard

Also I now present to you TheHATESQUARE – (PLS send help, these ship names are just… well, they’re not good guys! >___

Nathchlo (Nathanael//Chloe)

Chloe bullies and makes fun ofNathanael (kinda like how a preschooler pulls the pigtails of the girl helikes, but grown up), Nathanael does not appreciate the treatment, but afterbeing akumatized (the first time), just tries to stay out of Chloe’s way

However, as he gainsconfidence, over time he starts to stand up for himself and others… and Chloeis like “Uhhh, what now?” **internally** “he’s kinda cute’ *___* wait??! what?!?!

In her civilian form… Chloetries to be nicer… it’s hard. But she starts to become more guilty about all theakumas and hurt she has caused, all the trouble she’s cause Paris, when she always thought of herself as Paris’ Princess, and all the work she’s made for Ladybug

Nathbee (Nathanael//Queen Bee)

Nathanael hates Queen Bee, but in order to hide his identity as LePaon, he tries not to make it obvious… also out of costume he’s not able tofight her, he’s at a disadvantage… but damn if she doesn’t look good in hercostume…

Beon (Queen Bee//Le Paon) OMGPLS I DON’T DO WELL MAKING SHIP NAMES… but uhhhhh, this is the ship we’re allhere for **insert Jason Mamoa gif of him folding out chair to take a seat***

HATE FIGHT HATE FIGHT **angry makeout** HATE, FIGHT (this is theirrelationship in a nutshell)

They fight, they bicker, they border line flirt while trying topunch each other’s face

This is also kind of an exploration of their characters…Chloe,usually the bully is now face to face with a super villain and it scares herthat she sees a bit of herself in this peacock creep… she tries to get him to see that what he’s doing is wrong… why would he want to hurt Ladybug?? be a hero, not Hawkmoth’s pawn!

Le Paon on the other hand, doesn’t see himself as a Hawky’s henchman… over time he realizes that Hawky isn’t even a threat to him… he’s basically just in it now to keep his miraculous, to keep his powers… because for him, he’s a hero…. who’s to say when he gets the ladybug and chat miraculous that he’ll actually give them to Hawkmoth?? and hey maybe he can add a bright shiny comb to his growing collection…

Paochlo (Le Paon//Chloe) … actually no, it’s Cholaon (pronounced Cologne cause for some reason I think that’s the funniest thing ever!)

Le Paon HATES CHLOE and is notafraid to show it

Chloe HATES LE PAON and isdefinitely not afraid to show it

This is like the inversebizzaro version of Marichat

Hope you like it!! Pls send me any thoughts/ideas!!! I’m only half way through ch 1 so changes can easily be made… or other writers can soooo go ahead with whatever awesome idea they have!!

EDIT: We got a first chapter now!! :D posted here on tumblr and also on ao3
