Broke: Reverse lovesquare! Reverse lovesquare! Adrien now only sees Ladybug as a friend and is in love with Marinette! Marinette now only sees Adrien as a friend and is in love with Chat Noir!
Woke: Adrien is simultaneously in love with both Marinette and Ladybug whilst Marinette is simultaneously in love with Adrien and Chat Noir! It is now a love line!
I saw a take saying that all the other sides of the lovesquare are temporary and Adrienette is the only real one that lasts because that's the side on which they're gonna actually be together and settle down together and all that when the masks inevitably drop and ..... dude no
this is again an example of a pet peeve of mine where y'all think of the lovesquare sides as surface-level/aesthetic based on who's wearing a mask rather than what they actually are: Relationship Dynamics
When Adrien and Marinette are in the sewers together in the Season 2 finale and Adrien tells her the"you and me against the entire world,” that's Ladynoir. They're unmasked, but it's Ladynoir. When Marinette is texting Alya telling her to laugh at Chat Noir's jokes to make him happy, that's still Ladynoir, because she's thinking about her relationship with Chat Noir as Ladybug.
Ladynoir has the strongest and most developed relationship of the lovesquare. Ladynoir is the side that's best friends. Ladynoir is the side where they’re comfortable enough with each other to playfully roast each other and disagree with each other and get mad at each other and then easily come back from that and talk about it because they so openly love each other. Ladynoir is the side that already behaves like a real couple. That best friendship that they formed as Ladynoir? The deep trust and casual affection and petnames and banter? That stays when the masks come off. They're still going to be doing that when they're an old married couple. The things they went through together as Ladynoir are why they can understand each other in ways no one else can. And they didn't get any of that from Adrienette. That's all Ladynoir. The masks aren't what makes Ladynoir. The bond they formed as Ladynoir will last their whole lives.
Here’s the cover page to an AU that I’ve been working on, Friends & Foes!
After the events of The Collector, Marinette is forced to come to terms with the idea that Adrien is most likely Papillon. Now that she knows the face behind the mask, she’s more determined than ever to befriend Adrien and convince him to join the side of good...
The only problem being Adrien is most definitely not the Papillon.
Unfortunately, the only person who could have cleared up this misunderstanding, the Guardian of the Miraculous, has once again gone into hiding, leaving room for misunderstandings to bloom- amongst other things.
certifiably losing my mind over the differences between luka and kigami in truth/lies
both know that the person they love isnt telling the truth/lying to them and both get akumatized because of it but at the end luka tella marinette that he'll be there when shes ready and kigami tells adrien that she'll let him know when shes ready to come back
What's TVL about? I scrolled through the tag but couldn't find a summary 👀
considered revealing the actual summary for tvl but instead of doing that:
tvl is a largely ladynoir centric fic about them at age 23! meaning they’re like done w university, officially ‘working’ etc, BUT the real catalyst here is that ladybug’s powers have been getting more varied, stronger — leading to her creating a place called the Secret Base. this is essentially an akuma proof space that they can access from any door in existence! over the years, some holders gave up their kwamis for various reasons, and thus the Secret Base allows ladynoir to safely protect the holder-less kwamis without putting a strain on their private lives.
one day, ladybug gets drunk in the Secret Base (literally like a few days into creating it) and reveals to chat noir that she is a virgin. and that she would like his help to stop being as such
-> hope this is interesting to u guys!! it was to me so i spent a year writing it. when tvl starts showing in theaters near you (ao3) my wish is that it is funny to u guys ^_^ also heart wrenching
To celebrate the release of 1989 - Taylor's Version,
I'm going to be writing fanfics based on each song with some of my favourite ships. Not every song on the album however is going to be paired with a ship, like Shake It Off (cuz it just won't fit 😭).
The list so far is:
Welcome to New York
Blank Space
Style: Rarijack
OOTW: Tenrose
AYHTDWS: Ghostflower (Miles X Gwen)
Shake It Off
I Wish You Would: Ineffable Husbands
Bad Blood
Wildest Dreams: Zutara
HYGTG: Prinxiety
This Love: Zelink (BOTW/TOTK)
I Know Places: Donnie X Jensen
Clean
You Are In Love: Scorbus
Wonderland: Adrienette Love Square
New Romantics
As for the vault tracks, I haven't decided yet as I don't know what the songs are (like their stories/messages). These I might keep as surprises.
All fics can be found under the tag: #1989 song fics
If there are any ships that you think might suit any of the songs I've crossed out, or even replace the ships I already have (and that I know of 😅), let me know!
