So we know almost nothing about Emilie Agreste, except that she's Mostly Dead and Gabriel and Adrien love(d) her.
We also know that the Peacock Miraculous is broken, and I'm reasonably sure the show implied the two things (Emilie being down for the count and the broken Miraculous) are directly related.
We also know that Gabriel is an emotionally abusive asshole.
What if... the Peacock Miraculous hasn't been broken for very long. What if it got broken, by someone very specific, when Emilie was trying to leave.
What if that completely horrifying yet frighteningly plausible scenario.
...
Welp, I think I just out-angsted myself there. Time to sit in a corner and think about what I've done.

I think I'll tag out for the time being. Once I read what you've got written, I may come back for it, though.
