LadyBug: You bet I am.

Marinette smiles, before typing another sentence.

LadyBug: Welcome to the team, ChatNoir

She laughs at the reply.

ChatNoir: M'lady, two people doesn't count as a team, last I checked

LadyBug: Maybe you need to check again

There's a pause, and Marinette begins to scrutinise the message, wondering if she's accidentally insulted him. To her relief, her phone buzzes with his reply.

ChatNoir: "An ideal working team is five people", I just checked. Maybe you'd prefer to review your terminology?

Marinette laughs.

LadyBug: A partnership, then. Welcome to the partnership, ChatNoir.

ChatNoir: I feel very welcomed. Do you have any ideas for the next episode??

Marinette frowns.

LadyBug: The other day a girl I know got a family heirloom pocket watch from her dad, gave it to her friend and the friend then accidentally dropped it. I was thinking something involving that

Strictly speaking, that isn't true. Alix had given it to Alya, who had given it to Marinette, who had it taken from her by Chloe, who had dropped it onto the racetrack that Alix was skating on. But she didn't want to tell ChatNoir the entire story, in case he found out who she was.

ChatNoir: That sounds like a great idea. She could go back in time to try and fix it. Because it's a watch? So going back in time?

And a moment later...

ChatNoir: TIMEBREAKER!! Omg im such a genius

Marinette laughs again. He's ridiculous.

LadyBug: Such a genius. Maybe we should start calling you ChatGenius? Or GeniusNoir?

There's a pause for a moment.

ChatNoir: GeniusNoir. Henceforth you shall refer to me as GeniusNoir and nothing else.

Marinette snorts.

LadyBug: Whatever you say, ChatNoir. Ready to start designing?

She sees his reply, an affirmative but correcting her to GeniusNoir, and grins as she opens the designer. ChatNoir's little icon pops up to tell her that he's online as well, and he promptly starts by typing GENIUSNOIR in large letters across the canvas. Marinette opens the chat.

LadyBug: That was kind of small, CHAT. Maybe you need to write it a bit bigger??

He replies with a frown emoji, and Marinette laughs before she begins to design Timebreaker.

ChatNoir: How is she gonna go back in time tho????

Marinette frowns, but continues designing. Even though she knows the normal form of Timebreaker won't be Alix, she can't help giving Timebreaker the trademark Alix rollerskates. ChatNoir, apparently, is still thinking about the going-back-in-time issue.

ChatNoir: omg there should totally be two tikkis. and plagg is just like yknow what i have no idea what's happening but two tikkis means less for me to do

Marinette laughs as she finishes drawing the draft of Timebreaker. The green brush that is marked as ChatNoir starts drawing a huge helmet that covers the girl's face.

LadyBug: What's up with the helmet?

ChatNoir: If she was rollerskating, she needs a helmet. Might as well make it huge, reflective and cool

Marinette laughs again, and helps him complete the helmet. She bases it a bit on a fly's large, shiny eyes.

ChatNoir: Cool finish, mlady. i was thinking she could go back in time by using peoples energy, aka killing them in a way. bc plagg and tikki arent human, timebreaker wants their energy because she believes they are mostly made of energy

To be honest, Marinette has never considered what kwamis are made of. They always just... existed.

LadyBug: Thats actually a rlly good idea

ChatNoir: No need to sound so surprised, im offended

ChatNoir: so lucky charm would be???

Marinette thinks, and draws it out. A traffic cone and a bicycle lock, used to tie Timebreaker's ankles together so she can't skate. She doesn't even message him, the drawing being enough.

ChatNoir: genius idea. maybe u can be geniusbug. happy?

LadyBug: GeniusBug and ChatNoir, sounds good

ChatNoir: GENIUSNOIR!!

Marinette sends back a laughing emoji, and then they start to draw the comic, with frequent messages determining various aspects of the comic. Marinette grins at the two Tikkis while ChatNoir draws the lazy Plagg in the middle.

When Marinette uploads the episode, she can't help feeling a sense of accomplishment.

ChatNoir: And thus, The Adventures of Tikki and Plagg have been born

LadyBug: You bet they have.
