The first arc of Miraculous opened with the question as to the identity of Hawkmoth. A question that plagued the fandom and may have seemed obvious in retrospect but had to have left a shadow of doubt in the minds of viewers, with the red herring bits of information laid out to draw away attention from Gabriel.
What is interesting, is that we are now entering into the second arc of Miraculous and we are faced with a similar question. At first glance it would appear obvious as to the identity of the woman in the lounge chair. After all, the entire duration of the show has depicted Gabriel seeking the wish to bring back Emilie.
However, by the time we get to Gabriel actually making the wish, this is no longer a simple given. We the viewers, have watched Gabriel's descent into madness and moral decline throughout the seasons, especially this last one, and in addition to this, his mindset at the end is very unclear. On the one hand he claims to be regretful for what he's done, on the other hand he still steals the Miraculous and makes the wish. The wish and its price are never explicitly stated and are left for us to guess their contents.
This information taken into account, along with the pink and black color scheme (Amelie wears black, Emilie wears pink) of the bathing suit and the updated hairdo, all make the identity of the person sitting next to Nathalie an unknown.
The point of this all being that, we have now begun a new phase of Miraculous with a new identity to speculate on and uncover. Perhaps we will not have to wait a full season to know this identity, like last time, but her mysteriousness and the implications that both this mystery and that her very person have on Gabriel's wish, have left us with uncertainty and anticipation of something to come. And I fully believe that the implications of this mystery are going to carry the storyline into the next season.

SEEK AND DESTROY
Progress
Started many many months ago and decided to finish it(?) I didn’t really follow the reference after a while and it’s pretty messy and missing obvious components like plaggs second wing…. But it’s fine!! I just wanted to at least ‘finish’ this and that is already a win in my books
