Summary
Marinette never really wanted to be a superhero, for the record, but the choice wasn’t hers. And when she sees a car headed for Alya the day Stoneheart appears, that’s not a choice either—that’s a death sentence for a girl with no powers, just a phone and too much curiosity for her own good.
Marinette becomes Ladybug, and she moves.
In hindsight, Marinette supposes the car crushes her skull, her lungs—something like that. She thinks she remembers hitting the ground, but that could be wishful thinking, the desire for a sense of certainty that will always be out of reach. It doesn’t really matter, as much as she’d like to think so.
The bottom line is that on her first day on the job, Ladybug dies. And then she gets back up.
//
Or, in an effort to keep her newest wielder calm, Tikki might’ve skipped over some things in her initial explanation.

Summary
Till gave the paper a little shake. “C’mon, princess,” he teased, like his own words didn't have his heart racing. “Please and thank you — you really need me to teach you how to use your manners?”
A muscle jumped in Ivan’s jaw. His gaze flicked from the paper to Till’s grin, then to the floor. “...Thank you.”
“Thank youuuuu….?” he trailed off.
Ivan’s shoulders hiked up around his ears. Till didn't think he’d ever seen Ivan this embarrassed in his life. He was enjoying every second of it. He wished he could pull out his phone to take a picture — or fifty — without Ivan trying to kill him for it. “Thank you, Till.”
till hasn't seen ivan in over a decade, not since the older boy left for college and they drifted apart. now till's got the role as executive assistant to the ceo of anakt co., and till spends most of his waking hours up close and personal with an older, more serious, more perpetually exhausted version of ivan.
till doesn't give much of a shit about the job itself. ivan clearly won't take care of himself, so till will take care of him whether ivan likes it or not.
(ivan likes it. a lot.)

Summary
There was a hologram with instructions next to it,

Ivan blinked, his throat suddenly feeling too dry and he twitched restlessly, don't imagine it, don't don't don't–
But it's a losing fight as his brain supplied itself with concurrent images like a rolling film of Till with the chip, Till on his hands and knees, getting filled from the behind–

Summary
Then again, Mizi would also never part with Sua, and now look at her.
A half-empty bottle of water is pressed into his hands. “You need to eat. Ivan too.”
Reminded of the man who nearly sacrificed his life for him, Till feels for his pulse for the nth time that hour.
Thump-thump-thump.
Still alive.
Mizi looks at him with something in her gaze. Till opens the bottle and takes a sip.
It tastes like pity. It tastes like understanding.
