I just recently saw some asks you were given about Chloé Burgeois and they made me curious. I know that you like her earlier portrayal, but what do you think of her in later seasons? Personally, I have come to at least appreciate what I think the show was trying to do, execution aside. Chloe was like Ramses in the prince of Egypt: Just because they had sympathetic traits and backstory doesn't mean that they would get better. They doubled down at almost every opportunity until it was too late.

I can kinda see where they might have been going with that, it just doesn't work so well with Chloe, because well, Chloe's a kid, not an adult, and the ones who ultimately enabled or abused her, her parents, got lesser "punishments" than she did.

I've seen the kind of storyline you're talking about work, specifically with Simon from Infinity Train. But in that case, there hadn't been any higher authority figure guiding or enabling his actions for a very long time, he'd BEEN the highest authority figure around for years now, so there wasn't really anyone else who could be blamed for sending Simon down the path he was on, or for not stopping him from going down that path (Grace was about his age and had about the same amount of power as him). Also, notably, Simon was 18, so he was technically an adult at the point when he went off the deep end.

So yeah. That kind of storyline CAN work and be very compelling (hell from what I know of it, that's Walter White's storyline in Breaking Bad), but with the specific circumstances set up for Chloe in Miraculous, the execution doesn't work.

I know folks are loving the 'Gabriel had the ring, Adrien can talk to his father' angst, bitit I think they are sleeping on the other half of *really* sweet toxic angst.

He had the Ladybug too.

Marinette already propagated Gabriel's 'Big Lie' in the heat of the moment. She knows how to contact a previous holder *and* that he had the Ladybug. It starts innocently. She just wants to find something to prove the 'All the times I was a good father' line. She needs reassurance.

Gabriel however is a supremely manipulative asshole.

He's there with all the right words and reassurances. He has ready advice for Adrien at first, then other things. The show has already dropped parallels for them, only one is a grown asx man and the other a teen under crushing responsibility. Listening to advice...it makes it all so easy...

For sci-fi geeks a Dune reference: Alya(no not Cesaire) and the Baron Harkonen.

Gabriel manipulating things from beyond the grave. Marinette's savior complex dragging her under once again. Write your own ending but the path is covered with broken glass and regret.

…I wonder how the commonality of non-canon ML ships differs in G & T versus M & E rated AO3 fics?

Time to dig. Some ground rules:

I’ll pull my data logged in, since that’ll get archive locked works. For these purposes I’ll include Nathmarc and Julerose as canon, because what I’m really interested in here is ships with less direct grounding in canon. I’ll judge G & T as a set and M, E, and NR as another. If E and M have substantially different stats, I’ll post them separately. The tag to block for this is “Kat goes stathunting.”
