A Miraculous Chara - A PSL for a Ladybug/SC uber crossover.
They had gotten to Japan, and had been told to settle into their hotel. The next morning would be a museum and an observatory, then Monday they'd have three days of classes in a Japanese school to learn how they learned there, and then more cultural stops, including the Fujisaki dance academy that is old enough to be a landmark, and a temple. But for tonight, resting off the jet-lag, and dinner in the rooms.
More than half the class was asleep when the music started. Alya was out like a light, leaving Marinette some relative privacy in the hotel room, which had a wide balcony overlooking the city. The music came from somewhere outside, from a distance, but as clear as if the person playing that haunting tune was in front of her. Violin. One player, solo. The music stretched and reached, pulling at something within each child, but only some of them were affected.
Alya was one such, and the one Marinette was most likely to see. From her sleeping body there would be the slightest spasm, then something would rise from her, a black egg with a big white X over it.
It would hover over her body a moment, then shoot out past Marrinette, flying all out towards the source of the music. From all over the hotel, eggs would be flying out the same way, all black with white Xs, all finding the closest possible exit, and getting out of dodge.

"Well, hello to you too." she smiles, "You're all - so little and - and what are you?"

The small blue child floated closer to Ladybug. "Why are your earrings changing?" she asked, confused. She pulled a small sketch pad from her little bag. "I wanted to draw them, Maybe amu would look good in red and black dots too, but not skintight like that. It works for you, but she doesn't have the body for it..," thinking out loud, critically.
"MIKI!" Amu shouted, blushing even more darkly.
Rima's hands were in small fists.
Nagihiko sighed sightly, with a small half smile. "I'll walk you closer to home, Rima. That way you know I'm not walking Amu, okay?"
She scowled then stalked over to Ladybug. "Amu is my best friend. Not yours, not Nadeshiko's," she said firmly, seeming very much like Manon. She turned on a heel and stalked off. Nagihiko following behind, with a wink to the rest of them.
