Kindling (When You’re Burning Low)

Cinder would rather burn herself out than risk a low grade; fortunately, Neo knows how to make her relax.

Tone: Some angst, lots of supportiveness, and a fluffy ending

I was gonna post this before now but I had problems with writing it and I was nervous about participating in a ship week especially when I only have something written for one prompt, and also my cat was sleeping on me for five whole hours earlier tonight while I was trying to finish up and as everyone knows it is a crime to disturb a snoozing kitty cat. I hope it still counts. ^_^;

Considering it’s pretty long, I only have an excerpt (the first scene I wrote for this fic, actually) on this post; the whole thing is, of course, over on AO3!

On this fine Saturday afternoon, Cinder was taking advantage of the lounge in the dorm suite. The coffee table was half-claimed by various books and notes while Cinder herself was settled at the same end of the couch, her laptop perched on the arm of it and her right side pressed closely against the suede upholstery as she struggled with the perfect phrasing for her essay. Failure was never an option for her, and even the slightest error would lead to it when it came to this class. She was running on pure caffeine by now, from a supposedly unhealthy amount of coffee. This was her third or fourth solid day of being awake. After the first night, she’d moved her setup from her room to the lounge to help her stay more alert. Winter and Emerald had both tried to tell her what was best for her wellbeing, but she’d firmly shut down their arrogance; she knew her own limits, and she needed to get this stupid project done. Neo, thankfully, had been out of town from Thursday morning to last night, and when she’d come back to the suite, she’d trudged straight to her room and shut the door. Cinder had only seen a couple brief glimpses of her since. Just as well, considering Cinder couldn’t intimidate her into letting her be like she could to Emerald and Winter.

At the moment, Emerald and Winter were both out of the building. They’d each probably told her what they were doing, but she hadn’t bothered to remember it. Neo was apparently still asleep, which was a bit odd but not enough so to risk seeing the pitiful kicked-puppy expression that appeared when her sleep was disturbed. Still, if she wasn’t up and about in two hours, it would be worth it to check on her mental and physical health.

Speak of the devil, Cinder heard a door open behind her. She didn't bother to look, though, until she realized the shuffling footsteps were approaching the couch instead of the kitchen, bathroom, or shower. She took a brief glance, then did an immediate double take because Neo looked absolutely miserable. Her hair was unbrushed and her eyes were dull. The oversized black sweatshirt (which Cinder recognized by the fiery orange phoenix on the front as one of her own that had mysteriously vanished a few weeks ago) and the brown and pink plaid pajama pants were probably what she'd worn to bed the night before, and she hadn't even bothered to put on socks. It was worrying to see her in such a state.

"You certainly look worse for wear," Cinder commented. Neo pouted at her as she slowly made her way to the couch and sank to the cushions. Before Cinder could react, Neo flopped down, squirmed to lay her head in her lap, and rolled onto her back. "I'm busy," Cinder told her sternly.

Neo's response was a soft and pitiful keening sound. She fumbled to grab Cinder's left wrist, staring up at her with pleading doe eyes.

"Neo. I'm busy," Cinder repeated. Neo whined and tugged on her wrist, so Cinder rolled her eyes and stopped resisting, curious about what she wanted. She wasn't sure what she was expecting, but she was definitely taken by surprise when Neo gently guided her hand under the hem of her sweatshirt and pressed it against her lower stomach.

What is she trying to accomplish here? Cinder raised an eyebrow at the woman in her lap. Neo let go of her wrist to sign something at her. The odd angle made it hard to translate, so it took a few seconds for Cinder to understand what she was asking for and why.

"I suppose I can take a short break, if you're really in that much pain," she relented. "You're lucky you're cute," she added as she carefully activated her Semblance.

The reaction was instant. Neo sighed with relief at the warmth, eyes full of soft gratitude and affection. Cinder rubbed slow, small circles over her stomach, feeling the smaller woman go languid under her touch. After a few more seconds, Neo's eyes fluttered closed.

"Is this warm enough?" Cinder asked. Neo nodded, a content smile playing across her lips. "Just ten minutes."

Neo opened her eyes and pouted at her.

"There is a reason I've been awake for," Cinder checked the time on her laptop, "about eighty hours now." Neo looked positively outraged.

"You need to sleep," she signed—easily decipherable now that Cinder had gotten a little more time to adjust to her current perspective. Not that the message was very appreciated.

"No, what I need is to finish this ridiculous project so I can move on to my two remaining essays, do all the work for a 'group project' because the rest of my assigned group are immature and unmotivated idiots, and study for my three exams this week," Cinder retorted.

"When are your essays due?"

Cinder elected not to answer, since admitting the due dates were two and three weeks away respectively wouldn't help her against Neo's accusatory glare.

"Your group project?"

Okay, so maybe it hadn't technically been assigned yet and was scheduled to be due in a month and a half, but all the information was in the syllabus. Cinder's class was full of imbeciles, and somehow she always got stuck in a group with some idiot or another who didn't understand what a lesbian was, so she was getting it out of the way to avoid interacting with anyone.

"Are all three of your exams actually this week?"

Two of them, and one of those barely counted more towards the final grade in the class than a small quiz. Her continued silence was answer enough; Neo knew her too well.

"You're going to burn yourself out again." Neo's eyes were unbearably sad, so Cinder looked away.

"I'm fine," she dismissed the concern. A hand grabbed her chin and yanked her head down so her eyes met Neo's again.

"I watched you collapse in the middle of campus last year, and I almost got in trouble for pulling a knife on the paramedics to make them let me stay with you. I got a scared video call from Winter four months ago because you fainted in her fancy rich-person hot tub and nearly drowned," Neo reminded her. “Do I need to go on?��

"I can handle it this time," Cinder insisted, growing agitated. Neo took a calming breath before responding.

"No you can't. You always say it but you never can. You end up in an exhausted daze. You work yourself into a frenzy. You get into fits of rage...which honestly scare me."

"I would never lay a hand on—!" Cinder was cut off when Neo pressed a finger to her lips.

"Not for myself. I'm scared you'll lose control and take it out on yourself again," Neo corrected her. "You haven't in a while, but..." Neo trailed a hand down Cinder's left arm, tracing her scars.

"I just...I need to...I have to keep working. I can't let myself fall behind. I can't..." Cinder faltered. Neo sighed.

"I know," she acknowledged. She knew about the past, knew why Cinder relapsed into these desperate attempts to excel, to stay ahead. "But it's pointless if you destroy yourself trying."

"I've only ended up being sent to the hospital three times since I started college," Cinder argued. Neo was unimpressed.

"Congratulations! And you've managed to barely avoid hospitalization how many times now?"

"I—that isn't relevant!" Cinder hissed. Neo scowled.

"Really? It's not? How many times have you ended up so exhausted that you were bedridden for days? How many times have you gone into a mental decline because you were incapacitated? And how many more times are you going to make me watch you suffer like that?"

"If you want to leave me, just get it over with!" Cinder spat bitterly. Neo's eyes widened, hurt and shocked. Cinder flinched, realizing she'd crossed a very important line. "I didn't mean...I don't know why I said that."

"An abandonment complex, emotional instability, a mess of insecurities you mask with your ego, previous girlfriends who couldn't handle you or only wanted your body...and like I've been saying, you need sleep,” Neo replied, recovering. "Also, my cramps?"

"What?" Cinder realized she'd subconsciously deactivated her Semblance at some point and quickly remedied that. "Oh. Sorry."

"I'm going to make a deal with you," Neo informed her abruptly. Cinder raised an eyebrow, intrigued.

"What kind of deal?"

"The 'ridiculous project' you're trying to finish. Tell me about it, and I'll explain," Neo replied. Cinder clenched her teeth at the mere mention of it.

"It's an assigned experiment, a five to ten-page report on it, and an oral presentation. And the professor hates me. He goes out of his way to make every class, every test, and every assignment hell for me. I have to work harder than anyone so he can't get away with failing me out of spite. If I make even one mistake..." she growled.

"When is it due?"

"The day after tomorrow. It was assigned two weeks ago, but three days ago he realized he 'accidentally' gave me the wrong experiment. In other words, he's making me do a two-week project within five days—after I'd already finished the one he previously assigned me."

"Watts," Neo guessed. Cinder had come back from his class angry enough times that it wasn't even a question.

"Yeah," she confirmed anyway. Neo wrinkled her nose.

"I already hated that guy, and I hated him more and more every time you came back from his class in a bad mood, but this shit he's pulling now is the final straw, so I'm going to get him fired," she declared. Cinder let out an amused huff.

"And how will you do that?" she asked. She didn’t expect an actual answer but Neo didn't even hesitate.

"It may include breaking and entering, small and well-placed incidents, a flat tire, some bottles of the expensive alcohol he isn't supposed to have on campus, a sedative, and if we're lucky, a little inadvertent assistance from gravity and Ironwood."

"Just how long have you been planning this?" Cinder was taken aback at the immediate response. Neo considered.

"The time you locked me out of your dorm after his class because you were so furious you wanted to hit something, and you were worried you'd see so much red you might accidentally hit me in blackout rage. You've never told me what happens in his class to make you so angry, or even if it's actually him or just another student—though I was pretty sure it was him—so I planned for both situations."

"I'm impressed," Cinder commented. Neo smirked. “Now what was that ‘deal’ you mentioned?”

"You finish the report for your project, then eat something more substantial than coffee and whatever quick snacks you've been living off of for the past few days. And then we go to my dorm and you get some damn sleep."

"How did you know I'm working on the report right now?" Cinder was taken aback. "And how do you know I haven't been eating?"

"Because I can see it on your computer. And once again, you've done this before, so I know you don't take the time for more than the minimum amount of food to keep hunger from 'distracting' you," Neo pointed out, almost accusingly.

"I haven't even started working on the oral presentation. I'll do all that after I'm completely finished."

"Nope. You can start that part when you're well-rested. If you make me physically drag you to bed while I'm on my period, I'll make damn sure you regret it," Neo threatened with a scowl.

“Fine,” Cinder gave in reluctantly. Neo smiled brightly, and dammit, it was nigh impossible for Cinder to stay bitter in the face of such genuine fondness, joy, and relief. She wondered when she’d gotten so soft—even if only a select few people got to see that soft part of her—and realized she didn’t even mind anymore.

Miraculous Ladybug Catalyst Commentary

I keep telling myself I’m not gonna do this, but HERE I AM! The whole Lila thing had me talking, and I had to start writing.

So… yeah, I’m three minutes in. Usually, by now I would have written an essay about how thirsty and devilish Nathalie is. And Gaybriel. Sorry.

Where am I starting at? Marinette banging the table cuz Lila basically back-handed slapped Ladybug, and Adrien looks embarrassed for everyone.

Chloe looks like she fell in love. (3:51)

Now I start:

Spoilers

Ladybug wants to choke her, not thank her.

… The sun is setting…?

Bitch! That looks like a backdrop!

I feel ya Marinette. Lila ain't good if Hawkmoth thinks she’s good.

I. WAS. RIGHT.

HA. BOYFRIEND. HA.

Why are girls so stupid and desperate? I’m a girl. Stop tarnishing our reputation!

A girl that lies this much about the things she’s lying about isn’t good. And for now, I will fight any Lila-Apologist.

*laughing* The balloon…. *snickers* the balloon!

If she’s in such a high position to talk to the embassy, how is she so stupid to not know anything that’s going on?

Also, LET ME SEE THE REST OF THE BALLOONS!

Teachers should never start their sentences with “It’ll be hard to be as good as blank, but who’s next?”

WHO DID THE PHOTOMONTAGE OF THESE HEROES? WHEN WERE THESE PICTURES TAKEN?

The only one that looks legit is Chloe. And maybe Lady and Chat (they’ve been doing this long enough that I can %100 believe there was once a photoshoot). But Rena and Pace? No.

Do people in Paris call her Chloe Bee or Queen Bee? They know she’s Chloe.

This entire story has only been one year? … Yeah, I guess that makes sense.

I want the next shot to be Mari and Adrien’s faces as they smile like parents proud of their baby, but it’s about Paris and how they’ve changed (ALMOST) everyone for the better.

Nino has done his job. Next.

LORD! MY GOD! HOW HAVE THEY NOT BEEN FIGURED OUT YET WHEN THEY BOTH HAVE THE WORST POKER FACES?

Adrien has done his job. Too much. Next.

Alya has done her job. Next.

Girl, don’t be insecure about your cookies. You save Paris. Just flip them a finger and tell them they’d be screwed without you.

MARINETTE HAS DONE MORE THAN HER JOB. SHE NEEDS VACATION. MOTHER FUCKING NEXT. CHLOE?

Chloe has barely risen to the occasion. Chloe needs to shut up and try harder next year. Next

(Now I’m seeing what Chloe is bringing to the table) Chloe has gone back to ground zero. But I guess is ok, because Lila is back. And now it kinda feels like they’re competing on who can be a bigger pain in our asses.

I don’t know if it’s my subs but what the fuck is degustation?

Mari. Shut up. Please. I’m begging you. You are sinking quickly!

Guys, I’m only six minutes in and I’m panicking. What has this show done to me?

Oh, Mari.

Bitch. This takes time. Like…. A week. Not a day.

They have done no progress in what I can assume is 4 to 8 hours. (4 if its lunch, 8 if it’s after school) Maybe … they’re not as good as they appear.

They have a poster of their daughter. I’m happy again.

There’s no one in the store. And zero progress on that cake.

MOMMA THIS IS NOT THE TIME FOR DUMBLEDORE CRYPTIC BULLSHIT.

What a diet. There’s no residue on that plate. And I’m daring there was near-to-nothing to begin with.

Are they just staring off into the distance?

Is this fanart? This is fanart.

“And what you see right here is an awkward Ladybug. Don’t get too close, you might scare it and it flies away.”

Gaybriel smiling? Stop! Burn it with fire!

Damn Gaybriel. Damn.

… WAIT THERE’S A LADYBUG MOVIE?

THE MOVIE WAS MADE ALREADY?

LILA NEEDS TO CHILL HER CUNT! (Yes I said it. Lila is the definition of petty. Go. Look in the dictionary. You’ll find her face there.)

The music is different.

I … I just can’t.. understand why now… she gets to be there with the butterflies? I just imagine there are some butterflies going all like “Yo, bitch! You in my spot!”

Where does his cane go when he’s making the akumas? Nathalie’s not there all the time to hold it…

God… Lila is easier than the multiplication table for zero.

… Couldn’t reprise the outfit? Same lame one? Ok.

There’s no one on the streets…

So many people must be happy. So many fanfics…. Well, not that many. I’ve checked. But all of those who were asking. Now we know. The anti-bug outfit looks dumb on Ladybug. Now stop using that one.

Let's play the game, “What is real?” Is this Chat Noir real? If so where’s the real Ladybug?

Is this chat? If so why is he there when Lady is not? I believe this is all fake.

I don’t… think … this is how .. it would work on humans? Also, what is Lila gonna do when Chat Noir comes out later with Ladybug all like “… You killed me? But I’m still here? Guess you didn’t think this plan through.”

Yo…. Murder just happened in front of all of Paris. This is a kids show. . . Ok.

Did he just abandon her on top of the Eiffel tower?

The subs are great! (Ms. Ladybug I don’t feel so good.)

I just… I can’t.

Nathalie. … No.

We all rooted for you. We all did.

HE’S NOT GONNA FUCK YOU IF HE SUCCEEDS!

If he could do that… why … wait? Why.

YOU LOOK WORSE!

So MANY fanfics are coming true. SO MANY!

It is lunch.

… tikki has a tiny chef’s hat… I repeat TIKKI HAS A TINY CHEF’S HAT!

Except Ladybug who just shat all over the party.

IS NOT ABOUT YOU ADRIEN, IS ABOUT EVERYONE.

ALSO, HOW DID THESE TWO AVOID THE WRECKAGE THAT MUST BE PARIS RIGHT NOW?

ONE OF THEM WALKED!

Sigh.

News: Chat Noir is dead!

Adrien: I am?!

News: And Ladybug works for Papillion now.

Marinette: I do?!

Everyone else: ???????

Now they’re all red?

Adrien and Marinette: Fuck. No vacation. Not even on my special. NOTHING.

If anything, they all just look like Ladybug followers.

Damn Adrien. Damn.

Just.. *replay* This is the shit I came for. This. *replays* Yes. Always protect the girl who flings you across Paris and just technically killed you.

Damn, Chloe must be feeling good.

Miraculous Ladybug: REMIX!

NINO. NO!

Nino… I love you so much! XD

Nino: With the power of love I defeat you!

Ah. Alya’s sisters have redeemed themselves.

Adrien: NOT AGAIN!

Damn, Gaybriel. Damn.

This episode is good.

The subs: This episode is the episode where HawkMoth gets smart.

I hear ya. I don’t like it, but I hear ya.

PLAGG. MY BEAUTIFUL KITTEN. I LOVE YOU!

Yeah! You are a good kitten, Plagg! Good kitty!

Thank god!

Now do that… 100 more times.

Really? That’s hard to believe? The two kids who have foiled your plans a gazillion times?

AND WHY DIDN’T YOU WARN THEM?

*whispers* please tell me Adrien shows up looking for help too, please tell me Adrien shows up looking for help too, please tell me Adrien shows up looking for help too, please tell me Adrien shows up looking for help too, please tell me Adrien sho~

AVENGERS. ASSEMBLE!

TEEN TITANS. GO!

WHATEVER THEY SAY IN POWER RANGERS!

…

IN THE NAME OF THE MOON I WILL PUNISH YOU!

… Nah. Should’ve stopped at power rangers.

Mari: One? Bitch, did you see what’s going on out there? Undress!

Tikki knows what’s up!

What kind of leader are you? Rise up!

Oh, that’s what she meant by not all.

MUSIC. YEAH. SEASON FINALE. YEA- no.

I’m gonna have to wait for the fight aren’t I?... Sigh.

*gasps, whispers* Are Alya and Nino gonna find out?

I mean we all know about Chloe, so that was an easy one for Adrien.

Damn Alya. Damn.

She just cockblocked them. I LOVE THIS EPISODE!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

We all knew she knew. We all knew he didn’t know.

All I gotta say is:

Dreams do come true.

I have no new commentary because I’ve been replaying this scene over and over again.

Trixx: Your identity is supposed to be a secret.

Alya: Shut up and transform me, Trixxie.

Do we have to see all transfomations?

Nino: You’re not surprised about me?

Alya: Who was? You were just as obvious as Chloe.

Nino: Huh. . .

Ladybug being a third wheel over here.

Honestly, this is all we want for Ladybug and Chat Noir. This. And if we’re getting it from RenaPace that means we’re not getting it from LadyNoir… So… ready the tissues.

THEY HAVE A HANDSHAKE? THEY WERE TOGETHER FOR LIKE TEN MINUTES!

There’s so much new music.

Oh, Chloe… Nah, take me back to Ladybug being the third wheel.

*gasp* Damn, Adrien’s taking no shit from anyone.  

Sometimes I wonder how can they not figure it out, and then Adrien does shit like this. Is almost like they’re two different people.

He just threw it at her!

♫If you wish upon a star, your dreams will come true♫

Ok, so let me get this right:

Chloe: Knows who she is. (Yup. That’s all she knows.)

Adrien: Knows who Queen Bee is. (But everyone knows. Poor boy)

Nino: Knows who Rena and Queen Bee is. (One of them before this episode, and not his gf)

Alya: Knows who Queen Bee and Carapace is. (Knew all before this episode)

Marinette: Knows everyone but Chat Noir. (So close to having the full set.)

So… Chloe knows nothing, Adrien knows little, Nilya knows half, and Marinette is short of Chat Noir.

HE’S… OUT????!!!!

WHATTTTTT?????????????????

Nah. I just remembered. Volpina.

…. Wait….

Oh, it’s only ten per person. I mean, it’s not like some of these weren’t so hard that they needed outside help…

Also, shouldn’t Papillion be exclusive to LadyNoir? Is them who Papillion keeps trying to fuck up.

I stopped at 22:48 and all I can think is

Chat Noir: One day that’ll be me and Ladybug.

But also.. is no one gonna ask why they are acting like they know each other even though they ‘just met’?

Ok. I was told to thank @tetra-paec for the English subs, so here are my thanks.

And here’s the link to the video with they’re subs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ep4qPlU8waI&feature=youtu.be
