I like avoiding doing things - so HERE’S FEM!CATWALKER. Which of course means I have an excuse to give a character puffy sleeves. I’ve come to realise I love puffy sleeves. I swear I did like several design versions and didn’t immediately go for this. A cloak was considered.

Also loveybug is a complete visual juxtaposition to everything. Hello @asukiess - this is for you and your insane lovey themed au’s.

The way the final episode I'm s5 went has mixed reviews. They could have done things better, but they could also have done things worse.

But what theyve done to the characters throughout this past season (and maybe even prior, I can't remember the differences of seasons easily) is unfortunate.

They've taken the core of the characters, the fundamental elements that make them who they are, and twisted them. Or, the changes and growth that has occurred to the character had also been tossed away like rotten lettus.

Adrien should have been involved in the final battle. (I love NoireBug or whatever her name was costume but you could easily work that into it after Adrien was there.) Could still have the epic battle between them two but should have included Adrien.

I've read a post the other week that got me thinking on why the fandom seems more vocal about criticizing Marinette for keeping certain secrets from Adrien than Felix or Nathalie or Kagami. Like, they all do deserve a bombastic side eye for doing it, but why fixate on Marinette in particular? I can't speak for everyone, but to me, it comes down to these reasons:

Season 4's LadyNoir conflict happened because of keeping secrets. Seeing Marinette do the same mistakes that strained her partnership with Chat Noir... it was frustrating the first time, and much harder to have patience with the second time. She should know better by now. The others did not have such an arc besides Kagami. It's so frustrating watching her commit the same mistake.

Not gonna expect better from Nathalie or Felix. They were former antagonists who treated Adrien like crap. They never apologized because Adrien keeps forgiving them. Why would I expect any better from them now?

Uncomfortable parallels with Gabriel. More than Nathalie, more than Felix, Marinette has the most sway to Adrien at the moment. This secret makes it feels like Gabriel simply passed on Adrien's leash onto Marinette - giving her the knowledge on how to control Adrien if she ever feels like it. While she may never do that, it's still uncomfortable that she knows at all and will sit on this secret for who knows how long.

And yet, despite the Gabriel parallels, there's this lack of personal stakes outside her romance with Adrien. No really. Like, Nathalie, she loved Gabriel and probably Emilie to the point she committed crimes or assissted Gabriel in committing crimes for it. Felix is his nephew and is a senti himself, his life was defined by the senti shit. Kagami is also a senti, and knowing Felix is a senti, it's inevitable she will know Adrien's a senti too. Them knowing the secrets at all felt like a given even though it pisses me off they're not telling Adrien shit. But Marinette? She had no right to this. Why the heck does she get to keep this secret? Yet Adrien?? Doesn't???

Look, I get this isn't a bomb she can just casually pass on to Adrien. This shit is heavy and it shouldn't have fallen into Marinette's hands in the first place. Ideally, Adrien should've just been there in the final battle and found out that way or something else. Heck, Nathalie, Felix and Kagami aren't on a higher moral ground because of this. They should tell Adrien, but too bad this is the Marinette show where Marinette has to have her thumb poked into everyone's pies. Adrien just isn't meant to have anything for himself, not secrets, not friends, not power, absolutely nothing. Most of all, I feel this is why Marinette gets most of the heat out of everyone in on the secret:

Marinette is supposed to be a hero.

Heroes are supposed to be better than this - better than morally questionable mother figures and backstabbing wildcard cousins and exgirlfriends and most especially abusive fathers.

It hurts the most to see her go down anywhere near their levels. I expected better from her.

#narrative arcs #you can only delay for so long before you turn it toxic #< prev tags #my tags > #adrien deserved better in the final fight. #he should have faught. #they are a team #this show is feeling less and less like a kids show.
