Uh... So apparently I left? Or, disappeared? Something, but it wasn't entirely voluntary. Anyway, I think I went home - no, I'm positive I was home. Gosh, it felt like I was there for so long, but not that long... it was only a week here.

Er, hello again! After that brief vanishing act... But I think I need another day before I get back to work.

Adrien, sweetheart! Take the time you need. I do find myself curious about what you've said, however. How long were you gone...?

Thanks, Madhuri. ... I'm not fired, right?

Well, it seemed like a few months.

Of course not! But I want you well. So please get some rest after all of that.

Interesting. You weren't gone for very long. Suppose the 'pin' theory is truer than we suspected...

Okay... okay, yeah, I'll get some rest. [Though, he had been gone a week so he wouldn't fault her for it.]

Yeah. But, maybe if I'd been gone from here longer, I wouldn't have a headache.

A headache...? That's new. Whatever from?

There was so much stuff going on at home, it might be my own fault.

Goodness, that's a shame! ...

[Hmmmm. Let's switch this on.]

...What's the matter?

Ah... well, there's a lot of personal stuff I'm still trying to figure out. [He really wished he could say what it was.]

Aside from that, there was a big showdown between the city superheroes and Papillon and his supervillain army. I think it came out to a draw, but Paris was in turmoil.

Home to a war. Sounds like a picnic. But if I recall correctly, wasn't Papillon only able to create one supervillain at a time?

He was, but it seemed like he got a power boost somehow. He released butterflies everywhere and almost akumatized all my friends at school.

I see. I hope they work out the source of that boost. Or, perhaps it's time for the heroes themselves to find newfound power.

It's funny like that, power. Tends to fight to balance itself, but it's admirable that they still managed a draw even despite the heavy advantage!

Yeah. It was five against a whole super army... It's safe to say it was pretty cool thanks to Ladybug fixing everything later; otherwise, I don't know how I'd feel leaving behind a Paris that still needs to be put back together.

That the heroes need to put back together, you mean.

[A pause.]

I ought to tell you the stories of the time I spent time as a Star force Brave.

Well, yeah, of course, but Ladybug's abilities can literally repair anything damaged in an akuma attack. I guess I should've explained that first.

[He perks up on his end]

Star force Brave?

[Time for a more casual approach.]

I'd had a stint in a world that needed heroes. The second time I'd been there, I was with my new friends. We became Star Force Braves. I was Serenade.

My skeletal dragon buddy could turn into a real dragon. He was thrilled. But it was nice, the superhero life. What sort of powers did you have?

Wooow, that's so cool!

[And becoming a real dragon? Even cooler!]

Ehe, I wish sometimes. Being here is as close to superhero as I'll get. I've been mixed up in akuma attacks before though.

[Drat it. Well, maybe she was wrong.]

Ah-hah... well, now I wonder what you might call yourself. I was quite happy with Star Force Serenade, myself.

Any poses struck, one-liners? I know I did both.

I guess it would depend. Each superhero was animal-themed so having a fun name based around it would be a must, clever one-liners and good banter with allies... poses would likely depend on however you suit up and finish the fight...

So you've put a lot of thought into it.

It's private here, you know. I wanna know what you have in mind.

I have a lot of time to myself. [Haha... ow.]

Well... I was thinking... something like one of those magical girl transformation end poses. Seems more fitting.

[~~Roblox oof~~]

Okay. Now I -have- to make you a costume. I just have to.

Really? You want to do that?

Well sure. Why strike poses in your designer jeans when you can wear a crazy outfit and be somebody else for a while?

I'd really like that. Thank you, Madhuri.
