#ml colour scheme

[uptoolateart]

The colour scheme in 'Emotion'...right??? Symbolically upholding the episode's very title. It's taken me ages to get around to writing this up. Let's take this in parts.

White

At the Diamonds Dance, they're all in white - except Kagami, who I'll get back to. I analysed white to death in this post about Gabriel's new outfit, so I won't go into it again here. In quick summary, I think the white at the dance showed uniformity, blankness, loss of identity, coldness, a total lack of true emotion...a backdrop for the colour that gets splashed on later. As the heirs to the family fortunes, these kids are not allowed to have their own personalities, passions and lives. They are paper to be written on by the toxic adults.

Red

As mentioned, Kagami stands out as the only one in colour - red, no less. She's like blood on snow. Red brings to mind the heart, vigour, courage, anger, religious fervour, love - in other words, passion.

Kagami really lacks this in her life - but she wants it. It's definitely in her, waiting to be expressed. After all, she's an artist. And we saw how she got with Adrien. But at every turn, she's pushed back into herself, apologising for having desires and needs.

Then Felix swoops in and kisses her hand, confusing her and making her flustered. When he's revealed for who he is, and he makes the people disappear, she comes at him in attack. One way or another, he inspires in her all the passion she normally holds in - job done, Felix.

Turning to Felix himself, he confesses that he created the red moon out of anger. In this case, his passion takes the form of rage. I mentioned in another post that he literally sees red and forces everyone else to see things through those red-tinted glasses, too. He acts as zealot, forcing everyone to jump onboard the same ideological train he was riding, though he then came to see this wasn't the way to uphold his beliefs, no matter how justified they may be.

And why a moon? Because for millennia, traditions all over the world have linked the moon with emotions - dreams - the subconscious. By flooding it in red, those were Felix's dreams, his passions, brought to life and imposed upon everyone in Paris.

Blue

Without the red moon, the colour scheme is blue. The fire is quelled, and we are left with water, in a sense - another ancient symbol of emotions and dreams and, notably, the unconscious. Think of the secrets the ocean hides. It's also a symbol of secrets coming to light - think of the moon illuminating the darkness. Felix was not only on the brink of outing himself but he was attempting to out the others and enable them to be their true selves, without shame, for the first time...albeit, he didn't go about it the right way.

And finally, blue is connected with sadness - and sometimes fear or confusion. Ever heard the expression 'blue funk'? In short, in red, Felix is insane. In blue, he becomes a sympathetic mess, shown through his tearful breakdown on the rooftop after he snaps away the senti-moon.

But you know...I'm inclined to say that even when losing himself in red, it was still better than the cold, blank white of that party. He definitely got that much right. He's not someone who allows others to write his story for him. Now he just needs to figure out how to channel both the red and the blue aspects of his emotions in a healthier way and leave people like Gabriel behind - because as long as Gabriel can fill him with that much rage, Felix is still under the man's control, regardless of who holds the rings or the peacock.

So apparently Lady Butterfly got renamed to "LadyBlue" and is now going to be in the ml Rio special instead of Pixie Girl / Fairy Force? Her colour scheme isn't even blue? And can Zagtoon stop moving characters to Miraculous? I was excited for Miss Rose but now she's going to be in the London special instead of her own show. And I also remember reading that Ladydragon was meant for Pixie Girl but got put in the Shanghai special instead. I get that Miraculous makes more money than any other Zagtoon show but if Miraculous gets cancelled they'll have nothing to fall back on as they've cancelled all their non-ml shows and are giving all their upcoming characters to Miraculous.

#not sure if the Ladydragon thing is true or just a fan theory #but if it's true i wouldn't be surprised after seeing what happened to Lady Butterfly #i don't think i'm going to be paying attention to Miss Rose anymore... #i was excited but if it's just going to be another ml spinoff i'm not interested #ml salt #zagtoon salt #zagtoon #lady butterfly #miss rose #pixie girl #fairy force

Reading record:

The male lead's nephew loves me so much

남주의 조카가 나를 너무 좋아한다

This one kind of reminds me of Touch My Little Brother and You're Dead, the artstyle with the white hair, the similar humour and the added bonus of mc actually having a present and not terrible father lol ＼(*T▽T*)／

I do like the style and colour scheme on the mc though, the white and green, with the matching green nail polish really brings adds to the witchly vibes lmao :'D

As for the ml, it is still a bit hard to tell yet. However, it seems that this ml didn't actually hate the mc or only started acting "lovey dovey" with mc after she completely changed, like you would see in many other romance isekais, which increases the likability of this story for me 👌

Hi ml! i hope you’re doing well!^^

i’m a new writer and i was wondering if you could recommend some tips? i don’t know how to work the links around here (like for example my master-list) and i was wondering if you could kinda help me a bit set up my profile?😅

i hope it’s not to much, i just can’t figure it out. Also i saw how you rather read marauders content then write and i could totally write some things for ya!^^

i hope it’s not to much trouble of me asking for help^^’

—🦥

omg hi love, first of all it's not no trouble at all! also, i feel honoured you're asking me!! and guess what, we're moots now 🫶🏽

my main issue is keeping all my important stuff in order, so i have a google doc and all that's on it are the tags i use, or plan to use in the future

also for your profile, you have to decide a colour scheme and a navigation style (i really suggest simple styles because they're easier to change) and if your eyes strain easily, i do not recommend the small text like how i format

keeping one draft on your tumblr that contains text you reuse a lot is soooo helpful, for example my copyright text and my symbol divider, that's all in one draft

^ alongside those, i have links to my cc/character masterlists so they're easily accessible

LOOK ON TUMBLR HELP BLOGS, and no i don't mean from staff, i mean blogs made by real people dedicated to teaching people how to do new things with their blog and posts (these can be found by simply searching your issue on google or safari)

for other help; you can dm me, you send in more asks, you can email me i really don't care, just talk to me, also my cousin is big into web design and helped me with mine, a classmate of theirs' blog and does carrd sites in their spare time, so i can reach out to them if you'd like just keep in mind they're 15, but they are a writer on tumblr

^ however, with myself and their classmate, we let them log into our accounts and just texted us asking what we wanted ||| you can check out an example carrd of theirs here and their pronouns.page here

^ also, they've talked about doing step by step through photos so that's also an option

lastly i think just having a pinterest board of pictures you use on your blog is super helpful because you can always look back on them and reuse them or keep track of pictures your thought you wanted to use even if you don't use them

on the marauders subject!! – ty ily i will be sending you my brainrot in your inbox and also i have prompts if you ever need them

Just finished The Story of Minglan

So I just finished the Song Dynasty drama The Story of Minglan with Zhao Liying and Feng Shaofeng in the main roles after binge watching it for a little under a week now. I actually had started it months and months ago but after watching the first few episodes, I noticed immediately that it was going to be a heavy and serious drama and i wasn’t in the right place of mind at the time to deal with it.

But here we are now, after having watched all 73 episodes of this masterpiece. Because that’s my main take away after finishing it : a masterpiece. 

There’s a few things that i could nitpick if i really wanted to go into details, but most of them are just scenes i wish we saw more of, and nothing that really changed how the story was told. 

First I’ll begin to say that it’s evident this drama was written by women. The harshness of what it means to be a woman in a patriarcal society is depicted so well. And all the women characters are complex and vivid and absent of stereotypes and archetypes. Yes you hate some of them for their actions, and behaviours, but you also understand how they came to become what they are. The stories around divorce and dowry and marriage but also jealousy and ambition and women’s relationship to one another is so central and so vivid, it makes me ache for every single one of them.

Less obvious but to me very much present and commented upon is the treatment of slaves vs the aristocracy, and mroe generally, the way class intersects with women circumstances, even within the lower gentry. I feel like that’s a subject that’s not often touched with historical dramas and here it definitely felt lke the scriptwriters thought about it.

I’ll also point out how fleshed out the relationships between the characters are, all of them. There are no relationships that are just flat and dont make sense or are ignored for the sake of the story. No, everything, every relations is accouted for and you understand how these relations shape the characters.

The male characters are also incredibly well written. Many of them misogynistic, as you’ll expect men from this era to be, but it never feels as if it’s put there just for the plot to advance. No, it makes sense, and each men has its own flavor of it, even the good ones. 

The relationship between the man lead and the woman lead is so delectable. At first i didnt really ship them, as we had anoher love interest for Minglan, but Gu Tingye grew on me, just as he grew on Minglan, and I understood why she would love him so. I like that they have a relationships of equals and that despite his scheming, she is his match. In my memory, the only other relationship that grew on me like that in cdramas is Fuyao and Wuji from Legend of Fuyao, where at first I didnt like the ML, but he grew on me. 

Which leads me to the acting, which is just so excellent. Zhao Liying is incredible, as she always is, but it’s also really nice to see how she changes Minglan’s posture and facial expressions as she grows. The chemistry between the two lead is just amazing, but so is the entire cast. The Sheng family dynamic is so realistic, you can always feel the tension. Special mention to Zhu Yilong and his gorgeous smile and puppy eyes. 

I need to give extra props to the set designing team, and especially the lighting team. I read that they tried to use as many candles as possible to avoid using too much modern lighting, and it’s really appreciated, bc the scenes that happened at night indoors are always well lit (especially in contrast to GoT which is my reference in terms of low-use of modern lighting). In general the sets are very colourful and distinctive, and you can feel the changing atmosphere in the different houses and rooms reflecting the nature of the characters occupying them.

That brings me to the costuming, which I admit i have very little knowledge on Song Dynasty fashion, but I like that it was colourful, that they used the costume to describe the passing of seasons and that each character had their own distinct styles, colours and evolutions. 

Overall, I woulld 100% recommend this drama, it’s now definitely in my top 3 cdramas alongside Nirvana in Fire and Joy of Life (even if I cant give a ranking within those three). 

As for the few things I would nitpick, they would be 1) Rong’er relationship with her little brothers. How she dealt with the grief of Chang’er, and how she deals with Tuan and how that affects her relationship with Minglan. 2) The relationships with the Sheng sisters at the end. The ending scene seems to suggest that they made peace but I would have liked a scene before, with all three (Hualan wasn’t a part of their dispute) of them talking about how much of a shitty father they have. 3) More happy scenes with Gu Tingye & Sheng Minglan. Maybe it’s bc im a romantic at heart but I just wanted a little bit more scenes of them together, they spend so much time apart T.T

To end things, this drama needs more people to watch it and more people to write fanfiction for it!

Free to Be You and Me: chapter 33

Chapter 32 | Chapter 34

Disclaimer: I don’t own ML.

The aftermath of the battle is…surreal. That’s the only word that comes to Lady Noire’s mind. Carapace and Vesperia and Ryuuko detransform and chatter around her, but their words may as well be one long blur. Her attention is solely on the boy in her arms, who’s toying with her long braid and kissing her cheeks and bumping her nose and just being…imperfectly perfect.

“Hey! It worked!” Foxglove comes stumbling into the studio, now back to her orange colour scheme. Sass floats behind her, looking like he’s seen better days. “I wasn’t sure if you guys all managed to get in the Shellter but I didn’t hear screaming so I assumed hey, it all worked out – gah!”

“Thank you,” Lady Noire whispers, crushing Foxglove in her superhuman grasp. “Thank you, thank you, I love you, thank you –”

“Can I breathe?” Foxglove wheezes. Lady Noire laughs shakily and leans back.

“I couldn’t have done this without you,” she says as she yanks a sluggish Foxglove down next to her and Adrien. “I couldn’t have done anything without you. Or my prince. Or my kitty, who’s my prince.”

She sneaks a look at Adrien but he’s staring at Sass, who’s settled in Foxglove’s hair and refuses to move. Oh. Oh. He’d been Aspik. Her kitty had been Aspik. He’d tried to save her over twenty-five thousand times!

“This is so stupid!” Lady Noire devolves into hysterical laughter. “All this – it’s just ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!”

“I think she’s lost it,” Zoé stage-whispers. Lady Noire hiccups and covers her face with her hands.

“Ridiculous,” she repeats.

“I’m so sorry, girl,” Foxglove finally says. Lady Noire’s head whips up and around.

“Sorry? You? What the hell are you sorry for? We wouldn’t have pulled this off without you!”

“For not being able to get the Butterfly too,” Foxglove grimaces. “I had to drop the Snake part just after Ryuuko got the Peacock and I couldn’t transform again in time. And that was my second loop – I had to detransform right after Blank Slate happened so I could reset the loop for the actual fight. I told them they had to get the Peacock to save Adrien, and Ryuuko was barely functioning by that point so she was never able to get both or get the earrings when I tried getting Vesperia to get the brooches, and Carapace had to do the Shellter so he didn’t have time but – you know – I should’ve been able to get the Butterfly as well –”

“Don’t be stupid.” Lady Noire yanks Foxglove into another tight hug. “You pulled off the rescue and kept our Miraculouses safe! And you got the Peacock! You saved Adrien’s life! You saved the universe! I was going to give him anything he wanted to keep Adrien safe.”

“Wait,” Zoé says incredulously, using her sleeve to wipe the blood streaming out of her nose. “You mean you didn’t have a plan when you handed over your earrings?”

Lady Noire grins sheepishly. “No?”

“I question the people I’m friends with,” Kagami mumbles, her eyes unfocused.

“I actually meant for you to, like, Cataclysm the Peacock or something,” Adrien says with an exasperated hand wave. “I didn’t expect you to have no plan at all!”

Lady Noire huffs. “Forgive me for being just a bit preoccupied at the time!”

“Tell her, ba – Foxy!” Nino crows. “How many times you had to reset to pull it off! I almost went mad with your voice in my ear, so I dunno how you actually did it.”

“Um…I lost count after two hundred,” Foxglove says with a weary laugh. She holds out her fingers to start counting. “Shadowmoth couldn’t find out who Ladybug was. He couldn’t get the Turtle or Bee or Dragon, so I had to deal with three fights in one. Vesperia had to get into position to Venom at the perfect time before I detransformed – seriously, I think about seventeen loops were you not transforming in time or Shadowmoth getting the ring before Vesperia could get him. I had to get Carapace to use his Shellter before that sentimonster could catch you guys but after Ryuuko and Vesperia were safe. And I had to make sure both the Peacock and Adrien’s ring were safe.”

“I didn’t manage to fight it off without my amok, did I?” Adrien says quietly. Foxglove says nothing, but her silence speaks volumes.

“But you did,” Lady Noire says firmly, kissing him. “You did fight him off! And now you have your – your amok –” Her voice cracks.

“Ladybug?” Adrien looks down. “I understand if this is a dealbreaker. I know sentimonsters are –”

“No. Oh, no. You’re not finishing that.” Lady Noire grabs Adrien’s face and smushes his cheeks. “After everything we went through to save you, you’re not getting rid of me that easily.”

“But…I’m a sentimonster…”

“And? You said it yourself about Bugette: there’s nothing monstrous about you at all.” Lady Noire presses a black-gloved hand over Adrien’s heart. “You’re as human as I am. I meant every word I said to you.”

Adrien sniffles and throws his arms around her. No way has he just accepted it but, well…that’s for another day. Lady Noire doesn’t have the mental capacity to deal with that right now. Right now, all she wants is to hug her kitty.

She freezes. Adrien notices, because of course he does.

“Ladybug?” he says. “What’s wrong?”

“I couldn’t love Chat Noir! Gah!” Lady Noire digs her fingers into the sides of her head. “But I was dating him all along! I could have ended the world! And I put you in danger! Shadowmoth only took you because of me!”

“Okay, calm down,” Foxglove slurs, slumping against her back. “Because I’m so not in the mood to deal with this crisis. I think I just lost a year off my life.”

“Exactly,” Kagami says firmly, sitting down cross-legged with them. Nino and Zoé follow suit. “We won. Adrien’s controlled. He’ll never be safe again. We got the Peacock. Whatever that Chat Blanc thing was, it won’t happen. The safe’s world. If you turn this into a crisis, I’ll transform and hug you myself.”

“I think you need a doctor, dude,” Nino says. Kagami grins and then falls backwards, and she would have cracked her head on the floor if Nino hadn’t swiftly caught her.

“Now I know why you kept saying you couldn’t love Chat me,” Adrien says. “Seeing it – feeling it…it was so different to just hearing about it. I’m so sorry, Ladybug. I’m sorry for lying to you to get you to date me. I shouldn’t have – you deserve to be mad –”

“No.” Lady Noire buries her nose in the crook of Adrien’s neck, breathing in him. “You’re wrong about the being mad part. Keeping your identity safe was all that mattered. Any lies around that were necessary.”

“You don’t feel tricked?”

“Never,” Lady Noire murmurs into Adrien’s skin. “You were there for me, Adrien. Kitty. You were protecting your identity, not pretending to be some other person entirely. That’s the difference.”

“Um…” A chalk white Zoé holds out the earrings. Lady Noire stares at them blankly.

“What d’you want me to do with them?” she says. Zoé rolls her eyes.

“Fix everything. Duh.”

“Screw everything. Fix later.”

“Well…” Zoé jabs her finger over her shoulder. “There’s an akuma up there that needs cleansing before we have to deal with a hundred Blank Slates. And you might want to make a charm for Adrien. Plus, Kagami’s totally out of it, and I’m gonna pass out if I don’t stop bleeding.”

Lady Noire gasps and bolts upright to take the earrings and jam them into her ears. “The charm! Of course! I can protect him!”

“Ladybug, wait –” Adrien tries to say.

“Claws –”

“Ladybug! You’ll reveal your identity!”

“We already know, dude,” Nino says. “Kinda hard not to when she almost collapsed and threw up in the middle of the street.”

“Unless…you don’t want to know?” Lady Noire mumbles and looks down. “I know you might not want to see the person who almost got you erased from existence.”

“Are you kidding?” Adrien runs his hands down Lady Noire’s arms. “You saved me! You saved me from Shadowmoth!” He holds out his hand to show the silver ring. “You gave me my amok! My freedom! How could you ever think I wouldn’t want to know the girl I love?”

“I thought you said you didn’t need to know my name to know me,” Lady Noire giggles weakly. Adrien rolls his eyes.

“Look, I won’t pressure you,” he says. “But I’m also gonna tell you to shut up and not tease me for being cheesy and romantic.”

“Yuck,” Foxglove mutters. “Yeah, this is why their relationship was secret. You know you could just dual metamorphosis like I did, right?”

“You sure that’s a good idea with those two Miraculouses, ba – Foxy?” Nino says.

“Hush. I’m tired. I can’t be held accountable for anything I say.”

“If you’re sure?” Lady Noire says, fiddling with the Cat Miraculous. “I mean, I do need to give your Miraculous back, but I can do that without you knowing –”

“Ladybug. You want to do it?” Adrien says. Lady Noire nods mutely. “Then do it. Enough putting it off.”

Somehow, Adrien’s semi-order is exactly the kick she needs. Lady Noire takes a deep breath, murmurs, “Claws in,” and closes her eyes against the lime green flash that dissolves her transformation. Next to her head, Plagg yowls.

“Adrien! You stupid – don’t ever do that again!”

“I’ll…try not to get controlled with my life source?” Adrien says.

“You’re taking this too well,” Kagami says.

“Oh, you know us kids of overbearing parents. I’m a master of compartmentalising. Save the existential crisis for later, you know?”

“Adrien, I worry you.”

Marinette cracks her eyes open, wondering why Adrien hasn’t reacted to her. The answer is clear: his head is turned towards Plagg and a swaying Kagami, so he hasn’t seen her at all.

“Um…” She clears her throat, her courage suddenly vanishing. “You can, um…you can look. If you want.”

Adrien stiffens. He takes a deep breath, turns his head…and freezes again, his mouth agape.

“You,” he breathes. Marinette looks down and fiddles with the hem of her shirt.

“Me,” she says to her knees. “Hi, Adrien. Hidrien.”

Adrien lets out a choked laugh. “Marinette. Oh my gosh. Marinette.”

“Say it louder, I don’t think the other half of Paris heard you,” Zoé drawls.

“Not to get all self-deprecating,” Marinette says, “but, um, I understand if –”

“No. Stop right there.” Warm hands cup her face, raising her eyes, until she meets Adrien’s gaze and…her stomach erupts with little ladybugs. Love. He’s looking at her with so much love, the look he’s reserved just for Ladybug, and she can’t handle it, can’t deal with it –

“Hi,” she says again because that’s all her broken brain can come up with right now. Adrien’s face splits into a wide, toothy grin.

“You,” he repeats. “All that time I was freaking out over loving Ladybug and Marinette, feeling guilty for loving Marinette too, wishing that you could be the same person…that’s what I saw, Marinette. That was my deepest desire. That’s what I thought I couldn’t have. I saw you transforming into Ladybug.”

Marinette sniffles. Then she throws her arms around his neck, hugging him so hard that he might pop, never wanting to let him go and risk losing him because her prince is her kitty, they’re the same, she can have them both, and she’s going to be selfish for once and take what the universe is giving her.

“Wait,” Adrien says into her ear. “You said Rena Rouge was your best friend. And Foxglove is Rena. That means –”

“Yep. Let’s rest.” Orange light flashes out of the corner of Marinette’s eye. “Seriously, let’s rest. I’m ready to sleep for a century. Also, Kagami and Zoé are two seconds from passing out.”

“All the looks and whispers make sense now,” Adrien says, while the weight disappears from Marinette’s back; no doubt Nino scooping Alya to him. “I was wondering what the inside joke was.”

“You’re the inside joke,” Alya yawns.

“Babe, that doesn’t even make sense,” Nino says.

“Shut up and support your awesome girlfriend, Shellhead.”

“We should get out of here. But first things first.” Marinette pulls back to slip off the Cat Miraculous and hand it back to Adrien, allowing her to replace her earrings. She grins and giggles when Tikki reappears in a burst of pink light.

“I’ll save the lecture over giving me up for later,” Tikki says, tiny paws on her tiny hips. “For now, you should be so proud of what you’ve done! Just one last thing to do!”

“Tikki, spots on!”

“Whoa,” Adrien breathes. Ladybug grins and blushes. “That’s amazing. You’re amazing. That desire akuma couldn’t even compare.”

“Don’t,” Ladybug groans. “Don’t break my brain. Not now. Especially when you’re still in your pyjamas.”

Adrien looks down at himself. His cheeks stain red. “Oh. Um…now we’re even for the movies thing?”

Laughing, with her familiar spots back on, Ladybug makes short work of the akuma fluttering around the studio aimlessly before kneeling back next to Adrien and reaching into her yo-yo. Her hand emerges with a little soft pink charm studded with rubies. Not what she’d been expecting, considering his colour scheme is black and green, but sure.

“Aww,” Adrien says as she presses the charm into his hand. “I get to carry a piece of my lady and my princess around with me everywhere I go.”

“Shut up!” Ladybug splutters. She shakes her head. “Dammit, now I’ve forgotten my speech!”

“Adrien Agreste, take this charm, you’ll never be akumatised again,” Adrien recites, slipping the charm around his neck. “Blah, blah, can I kiss my miraculous Marinette now?”

Ladybug laughs and leans in to press her lips against his. “Always, my kitty,” she murmurs against his mouth, floating from the chilly weight of Chat Blanc’s broken moon up to the warmth of Adrien’s sun. She pulls back, throws her yo-yo into the air, and cries, “Miraculous Ladybug!”

.

Chat Noir’s humming when Ladybug lands next to him on the sunset-bathed Eiffel Tower, and her mind flashes back to his piano gift even before she consciously identifies the tune as being ‘Kisses of Fire’.  But sadly, he stops as soon as she sits down with him. His beautiful face lighting up more than makes up for it, though, and Ladybug almost can’t handle the fact that he’s Adrien. That her kitty and her prince are the same person.

“You look awfully happy for someone who’s just broken up with the love of their life,” Chat Noir quips. Ladybug elbows him.

“Shut up,” she says. “I’ll miss the night visits but, well…it was for the best. Ladybug and Adrien can’t be together without putting Adrien in danger.”

“You know just being broken up won’t stop Hawkmoth, right?” Chat Noir says. He sighs and grins. “Ah, it feels good to say that stupid name again. Still better than Shadowmoth. Who does he think he is, some sort of super evil supervillain?”

Ladybug laughs and rests her head on his shoulder. Deep purrs start to rumble through his frame. “Well, that’s why Alya and I figured out a plan,” she says. “Ladybug and Adrien can’t be together, sure, but that’s the only limitation.”

“Apart from a certain stray cat sneaking into his fair princess’ room?” Chat Noir teases. Ladybug groans.

“You’re insufferable,” she says. “I love you.”

Chat Noir wraps an arm around her. “Love you too, bug. Even if you’re the one who sneaks into boys’ rooms at night to steal their virtue.”

“Nope. Changed my mind. I hate you.”

Chat Noir laughs. “So, what’s the plan?” he says. “Because there’s no way I can go without kissing you ever again. Not now that I know what it’s like. And especially knowing what it’s like to kiss Marinette.”

“Again, I hate you,” Ladybug says with flaming cheeks. She clears her throat. “Okay. Um. The plan. We already staged that massive breakup in front of Paris after I got you out of the studio, so Hawkmoth knows we’re not together anymore. But we’re already super close as Ladybug and Chat Noir –”

“And most of Paris ships us, don’t forget.”

“– and you keep making me question why I put up with you. Anyway, we’re already close. We just have to wait a few weeks to announce Ladynoir as canon; I was distraught over having to break up with Adrien for the greater good, so I leaned more and more on my amazing, supportive partner.”

“You mean purrtner.”

“Shut up. And, um…that’s it. I realised my feelings for you, we got together, Ladynoir is canon, Alya hypes us up on her blog because this is every dream of hers come true, the end.”

“But what about uuusss?” Chat Noir whines, nuzzling into her neck. Ladybug barks out a laugh and pushes his head away. “I can’t handle seeing you every day and not being able to kiss you, bugaboo. How the heck did you survive all those months sitting behind me not being able to just…do what you wanted?”

“Because I’m amazing and super strong and it would serve you well to remember that,” Ladybug says primly before laughing again. “No, we have a plan for that too. Poor Adrien is so heartbroken over losing Ladybug and so angry at Hawkmoth taking his love away from him that he grows closer to his good friend Marinette. She knows just how to support him and make him smile, especially once he sees Ladybug with Chat Noir. And over time…”

“He realises just how much he loves Marinette Dupain-Cheng and begs her to be his amazing, gorgeous girlfriend,” Chat Noir finishes. Ladybug flushes again. Adrien was already too much, but how is she supposed to deal with him now that he wears tight leather and happens to be her beloved kitty?

“Yes. That,” Ladybug says shakily. “That part will take longer, of course, so you can’t kiss me in public just yet. But it’ll be worth it if it means Hawkmoth doesn’t suspect a thing.”

“You’re so amazing, bug,” Chat Noir says. “I still can’t believe you love me.”

“Trust me, I can’t believe it either.”

“Hey!”

“What? You walked right into that one.”

Chat Noir groans. “Fine. Okay. You win this time.”

They sit in silence together, huddled up as the sun sinks lower and takes the last vestiges of the day with it. It’s not until the full moon, soothing and intact, is bright above them that Chat Noir breaks the silence.

“Ladybug,” he says, and his voice is so serious that Ladybug immediately takes notice and pulls away.

“Yes?” she says. Chat Noir inhales, exhales, then gives her a small smile.

“You’re amazing, bugaboo,” he says. “Your mind is incredible. You’re so kind and loving and passionate. You make me look forward to waking up every day, as Marinette and as Ladybug.”

“Okay…?” Ladybug says. Her breath hitches when Chat Noir reaches down to the finger next to his Miraculous: the finger with the silver ring containing his amok.

“This isn’t a proposal or anything,” he hurries to say. “We’re fourteen and young and dumb and we barely know what love is –”

“I think we do –”

“– and when I propose to you, it’ll be with an actual ring. But…” Chat Noir pulls his amok off his finger, takes Ladybug’s left hand, and twists it onto her ring finger. “Think of it as a pawromise.”

“Chat? What are you –?”

“I want you to have it.”

“No!” Ladybug immediately pulls the ring off and pushes it back at Chat Noir. “Adrien, this is you! You’re asking me to be responsible for your existence!”

“I’m sorry. If you don’t want to –”

“Hey, that’s not what I said,” Ladybug says as her kitty’s ears droop. She reaches out and ruffles his messy golden hair. “I mean…Adrien, this is your entire life. You could just stop existing if anything happened to it! And if someone managed to get hold of it, you’d be their puppet!”

“Exactly,” Chat Noir says. “But not you. You could’ve forced me to throw off the akuma, but you trusted me enough that I’d do it. You’d never once try and use it to order me around. That’s why you’re the one I trust with my existence, Marinette. My father, Lila, one of my crazy fans…they’d turn me into a doll if they ever realised what it was, but you helped me cut my strings. And besides, Hawkmoth knows I’m a sentimonster. He already kidnapped me from my own room. He could get the ring again in a heartbeat and then – and then…”

“Next time, he might find out your identity,” Ladybug says softly. Whitebluemoon flashes before her eyes. Blinking, she leans in and kisses him softly, tenderly, and slides the ring back onto her finger. “I’ll keep it safe, Adrien. No one will ever control you again.”

Chat Noir sniffles and grins. “Thank you. Thank you, Marinette. You don’t have any idea how much this means to me.”

“I can try and guess,” Ladybug says, kissing his grin even wider. “But…you know you have to talk to your father, right?”

“What do you mean?”

“There’s no way he didn’t know you’re a sentimonster. Has he ever…I don’t know…looked like he used your amok against you?”

“No –” Chat Noir pauses. “Actually…yeah. Lately. I thought it was just a nervous habit since Nathalie’s condition started getting bad but…he only ever messed with the ring when he was telling me what to do. Like when he told me to go to my room after Project Oxygen and Bloodhound. And I’d just do it.” His breath hitches, and he hugs his knees to his chest. “He knew. My own father knew. He controlled me –”

“Shh.” Ladybug presses kisses to her kitty’s head. “You don’t have to talk to him. I just thought…there’s no way you can’t know your child’s a sentimonster. Especially if you weren’t born the usual way.”

“No, you’ve got a point.” Chat Noir’s voice is muffled by his knees. “And I do want to know. I kind of have to know. How can someone control their kid like that? And lie to them for years?”

“Don’t worry about that now,” Ladybug says, leaning against him again. “All that matters now is that I’m here. We’re here. And we can totally take down Hawkmoth. We won!”

“Yeah.” Chat Noir raises his head to grin weakly at her. “We did. We won, Marinette.”

Ladybug laughs and nuzzles against his cheek. A few moments of silence pass. “I think I’m in love with Alya as well,” she says.

“Oh,” Chat Noir says.

“I knew I was infatuated with her for like the first week and she’s always been really pretty but not…love. I didn’t know until she made me realise.”

“Okay.”

“When she kissed me on the cheek before we rescued you and – and I – she helped me so much, she’s kept me grounded, I couldn’t have saved you without her but this was never part of the plan, and I always thought she was off-limits because she was with Nino so my brain just never went there –”

“I don’t mind.”

“And I know – wait.” Ladybug squints at Chat Noir. “You don’t mind?”

“I was in love with Marinette and Ladybug.”

“I’m the same person, you idiot.”

“Even if you weren’t, I’d still love both.”

“So…what? What are you saying?”

Chat Noir grins at her. “I don’t mind, Marinette. Drag Alya down with you if Nino’s cool with it. I know I still have you at the end of the day. I know how much you love me.”

“Heaven knows why,” Ladybug mutters. Chat Noir pouts.

“Meowch. I try to be a good boyfriend and this is what I get.”

“You’re insufferable,” Ladybug says, rolling her eyes, but she still plants a quick kiss on his gorgeous mouth. “I wasn’t expecting anything to happen with Alya. I just knew she and I had to talk about it after the cheek kiss and I wanted to talk to you first.”

“I seriously don’t mind,” Chat Noir says. “I’m not losing anything. I’m…not, right?”

“No,” Ladybug says straight away. “If you think I’d drop you after I gave up my Miraculous for you, you’ve got another thing coming.” She looks down, rubs her finger over his amok, and jokes, “I command you to know how much I love you, Adrien Agreste.”

“Yes, milady,” Chat Noir says in a horribly cheesy robotic voice. “Anything for you, Marinette Dupain-Cheng.”

“Good,” Ladybug grins. “You know who’s really in charge here.”

Chat Noir breaks the act to sag against her and laugh. “I love you so much, Marinette,” he chokes out and kisses the back of her hand. “So much.”

“You know,” Ladybug says, with difficulty since Chat Noir’s now trailing kisses up her suited arm, “we really should stop calling each other Adrien and Marinette in the suits. That’s a bad habit waiting to happen.”

“I can’t help it if I love both sides of you to the moon and back,” Chat Noir pouts. Moon – broken – it flashes before Ladybug’s eyes but Chat Noir’s warm green eyes chase it away, keeping it at bay for now. She hums, smiles, and snuggles against him even closer.

“I love you more,” she says.

“No. I love you more.”

“Alya was right,” Ladybug groans. “We are that disgusting couple.”

Chat Noir cackles. “Well, I’m happy being the most disgusting person on Earth if it means having my equally disgusting lady by my side.”

“Charming,” Ladybug drawls. “You really know the way to a girl’s heart.”

I was going to praise the ML guys for establishing a very obvious Law vs. Chaos theme with Chrysalis v. Shadybug, but we already had the same theme with similar colour scheme with Nathalie v. Gabriel, but I guess the fandom was too pre-occupied with other stuff to notice.

Lil' Butterflila

Villain I love to hate

Headcanoning that in the finale Gabriel gets robbed of both of his miraculous by two different teenagers completely independently of each other in one afternoon. (And then gets thrown in jail)

#lila rossi #miraculous ladybug #miraculous fanart #butterfly! Lila #butterfly Lila #future hawkmoth #hawkmoth lila #ml Lila #shes designed around the fox miraculous so the butterflys purple colour scheme doesnt fit that well imo #lila would be a great hawkmoth tho #tho the bar is on the ground for that so

[chatblancismyfursona]

What I find most interesting about Rena's new form is that her Miraculous also changes colour?! No matter what alternative transformation any hero had till now the Miraculous always had the same unchanged charged mode. The Miraculouses would only really vary in camouflage mode

#Maybe it is a whole new form too #But the colour scheme only really fits the ones we have actually seen already #It might be Aqua since Rocketear is throwing tears? Which is a liquid... And that connects somehow #How does that even correlate though #I'M NOT SURE OF ANYTHING ANYMORE THIS SEASON HAS BEEN CRAZY #In a good way #ml spoilers

[shanunoons]

I know this is one hell of a hot take but what if Natalie is actually a cursed emillie agreste?

What if natalies last name means heartless because she's actually a colder, meaner version of emillie?

#ive been wondering for a while if theyre related #but what if theyre the same person #natalies last name is heartless. what if shes litterally a heartless emillie agreste #she clearly cares for adrien and gabriel #emillie and natalie have inverted colour schemes #miraculous #miraculous ladybug #ml

I was one of the people that mentioned about the concept art on Lila. I mentioned it because since it was a model reference sheet it was a final sort of thing. I actually try to rely on concept art for color picking than using show screenshots because the studios use different lighting in environments and I don't know why but I'm really particular about color picking so thats why I usually rely on finalized concept art more. But what I wanted to say was that I didn't realize how dismissive I actually came off as. I just thought I had an explanation of why people did what they did in fan art of her and I never meant any harm. But it doesn't change that I probably did come off that way, and I just wanted to apologize for that. So, I'm sorry I did.

eh don't worry about it. i'm not that fussed about people theorising why someone might do something.

i understand issues with lighting and animation quality (especially with how shite ML's animation typically is) wrt colour-picking and opting for a source that's more unaltered, like official designs and colour schemes. Personally I pick from high quality screenshots with scene lighting the same or similar to what I am doing.

but anyway, it's whatever. i would just like to know what model sheets some artists are using because i can't find a single one where Lila is anything but pale with a warm undertone to her skin lol. so idk.

It's Wednesday and we all know what that means... Time for some Ladrien!

I came across an old ad for the Moulin Rouge (reference under the cut), and there was just something about it that made me go 👀 and I need to adapt this to ML

In my mind, this is part of a post-Megaleech art project the kids have to do, for which they need to choose posters/art and recreate them, with bonus points for originality; Marinette, Adrien, Nino and Alya decide to team up, find this and find it kind of fun. There's quite a bit of debating regarding who should be the two characters (Alya pushes for Adrien and Marinette in the role of the gentleman and the lady, respectively), but after a lot of bickering, one of the boys jokingly points out that the guy's colour scheme fits Ladybug and that hey, wouldn't Adrien look great in a yellow dress? (Bonus point if Adrien makes that joke)

Everybody falls dead silent, Alya and Marinette look at each other like are you thinking what I'm thinking, whoever made the joke starts back tracking and is met with a loud NO! from both girls. Or, well, unless you'd feel uncomfortable wearing a dress, Adrien, adds Marinette.

Are you kidding? I want to see the look on my dad's face when he sees it, snorts Adrien, who's feeling a bit rebellious after all the Oxygen filter debacle (my headcanon is that if Gabriel supports men wearing dresses at all, he'd be the kind who's supportive of it because it's good for the brand's image, but would find any excuse for his son or himself to not wear one ever)

Cue a fake set up on the Ladyblog to "get Ladybug's attention" (+ Chat dropping hints to get her to do it, although LB doesn't really understand why he's so eager for this), Marinette designing a dress for Adrien, and Nino and Alya working on the design/composition of the poster (they replace "joyeux" by "miraculeux" because Miraculous, and they decide to cut the "rouge" out as a small nod to Marinette's bakery because mill -> bread and not at all because I forgot to plan for it haha nope, how stupid would that be) and the whole photography

They present it to the class and it gets released on the Ladyblog. Gabriel almost chokes on his coffee when he sees it (but the response is so positive he decides not to say anything beside something about how he should consult with him about anything that regards his image, as it could affect the brand)
