OKAI THE BRAINROT IS NOT GOING AWAY IM INDULGING IT
LEGITIMATELY REWATCHED A FEW SECONDS OF CHAT NOIR AND WAS LIKE GODDAMN I WANT TO SEE THE ROBINS WITH THIS SLUT BEHAVIOR AAAAA
anyways
Tumblr media
pairings: yandere! batfam x cat villain! reader.
just a little snippet im too lazy for more huhu
the real reason why some of the boys coveted the robin position so much wasn’t cause it gave them batman’s attention
no no no
it was because it meant that you would be inevitably be their rival and, if they’re charming enough, your friend.
you were harmless in the grand scheme of things, helpful in some cases. very much like your mentor, catwoman. only with a much more heavy appetite for chaos and being slutty around the robins and the robins alone
you didn’t care who it was under the mask, if they did not don it anymore you wouldn’t care less about them.
which brings us to our current situation
damian wayne was your latest victim. so far your favorite prey of all those that previously had his spot.
he was everything you liked about the domino masked hero: sassy, controlling, and ever so quick to take the bait that is your teasing.
but a small, itsy bitsy mistake on your part caused him to get horridly injured.
as such you took it upon yourself to take care of him that night.
he kept rattling on about “not needing your pity.” or how “a heinous criminal like you shouldn’t be even touching him” as if you two didn’t wrestle in more ways than one on the regular.
of course you ignored his pleas like always and healed him up
“why are you doing this? if not pity then—“ damian cursed as pain shot through his entire body. every time he was getting on your nerves by speaking too much you’d often dig into him harshly with your gauze.
“i wouldn’t want our chase to be over before you catch me.” you breathed out, wincing at all the blood before you.
heroes and vigilantes alike often dehumanized you. would say that you were some heartless, ruthless criminal with no regard nor compassion for anybody but yourself. but you could never get used to the blood and violence it took for you to get what you want — what you needed.
selina said that was your best trait
“after all, don’t you enjoy proving those stupid do gooders wrong?”
she’d say
you smile as you remembered the times you’d tease his predecessors. how you’d shower them with love, how you’d endear yourself to them. your little birdies til they weren’t. it’s amazing how blinded by love they were. they never even began to think that your flighty nature was the one at fault and not theirs for failing to keep their occupation.
perhaps you should thank bruce for his shitty parenting techniques.
damian never really thought much of you. he knew of tim’s little stalking hobby, of jason’s bloody shows of affection, of dick’s reckless attitude whenever you two fought. he just saw those as proof of his triumph, his superiority. if you acknowledged him then he succeeded. if you pitied him then you saw him as a failure.
then he realized he never truly understood them until this moment
but now that he knew just how much he has, that his brothers don’t. something that they would no doubt kill to have again…
he’ll make sure they never get you even over his dead body.
check reblogs for more cause ill be adding there for the uh 12-24 hours

One shot time! - “What they don’t know won’t hurt ‘em.” (possibly 1 of 2 ;D )
——
Adrien stretched out his fingers from where they pressed out against his lap. The wind ruffled his hair and he hoped he’d be able to flatten it back down by the time he had to return home. If he did return home that night, anyways.
The park was practically empty and he wondered if he should have asked one of his friends if he could come over, before jumping out of his bedroom window and gunning it away from the mansion.
He should’ve transformed into Chat Noir, and ran around the rooftops till he found his lady, but Adrien didn’t want to be Chat right now.
He tugged his hood down off his head and pressed his hand against the satchel bag next to his hip, sat on the old bench next to him. The rumbling of a certain cat god from the inside made Adrien force a small smile.
He may have been alone, but at least he wasn’t home, at least he was with Plagg, even if the menace was asleep, it was better than nothing.
He made a mental reminder to get up in a few minutes, to get ready to walk back, before closing his eyes and leaning his head up to the sky.
He sat for a few minutes before he heard the sound of something landing near him. His eyes shot open, and he looked into his peripherals for anyone, nerves on edge.
He saw no one and let his shoulders relax, turning back to where he had been staring with his eyes closed.
“U-Um Adrien?” A high-pitched voice sounded from next to him and he had to hold back the yowl of surprise the threatened to come out.
He turned and was almost immediately calmed by the sight of his (favourite) classmate and one of his best friends, Marinette, coming into view. She’s holding a bag of what looked to be baked goods in her hands, like the type ladybug brings on lazy patrols. He wonders if she was looking for Ladybug when she found him. She wonders if ladybug is looking for him.
He stops his thoughts there.
“Hey Marinette” he said with a soft smile, scooting to the side so that if Marinette wanted to, she could sit next to him. “What are you doing out this late?”
She smiles, “I was going for a walk, school has been pretty hectic recently, I, Uh, saw you sitting here and I thought I’d go and say hi!” She says, throat was taught, like normal, when she spoke to him. And ‘hi’ most definitely not what she first said to him here, but he wasn’t going to comment on it.
“What are you doing out so late, A-Adrien?” She moved and sat down next to him, bag clutched against her lap.
He hums, facing away from her for a moment. Marinette was always the person he could be honest with, both as Chat and as himself, he could talk to her, he reasons.
“I was feeling-“ he huffs, leaning back against the bench. “I was feeling claustrophobic, I guess. Just wanted out, didn’t really think of where I was going, ended up here.”
Marinette nods, and when Adrien turns to look at her, she’s giving him a look that he usually reserved for Ladybug. (Or Chloe on a really bad day)
“Is there,,,” she trails off, “,, a time you need to be back by?”
He shakes his head, “I snuck out, it’ll be morning by the time they realize I’m gone,”
She nods again, focused, and Adrien smiles fondly, he loved it when she was like this around him, around Adrien.
“You could come back to my apartment. It's pretty warm there, you know.” She looked like she had more to say, but as she looked into Adrien's face, she began to get quieter and quieter.
She snaps out of it, face flushing, “if you wanted to, that is!” She waves her hands in front of her.
Adrien chuckles, before looking up at the sky again. “I would like that,, “ he says with a smile, “,but isn’t it super late? Not sure how your parents would feel about you bringing home a boy past nine pm.”
Her face is still flushed but she grows a playful grin as she speaks, “what my parents don’t know can’t hurt them”
Adrien barks out a laugh at that, hand reaching up to cover his mouth, “didn’t know you were so rebellious Mare.” He stands up, pulling his bag up into his shoulder.
She stands up as well, bag still clutched in her hands. She turned and started walking, “I didn’t know you were” she says, teasing.
Adrien smiles and starts walking next to her. The park wasn’t too far from her place, so they’d make it there in a couple of minutes.
He leans closer to her, “what the game plan then?-“ she turned to look at him, eyes bright.
“-how do I plan on sneaking you past my parents,,,?” She giggles, turning back to face the sidewalk. “Well, you can climb can’t you? If not, we can go through the front door and just be very very quiet, but I usually just climb back up.” She says with a shrug.
He laughs back at her as they step into the centre where the building resides, she leads him into the alleyway next to it.
“ I can climb,,” he tucks his hair behind his ear, “how do you think I got out?”
(and if it were anyone else, anyone other than Marinette, he would have been concerned about entering a dark alley alone with them.)
“ by jumping out the second story window yelling parkour?” She teases, and how dare she be so right. “I mean,,” she flushes again, “I have no idea!”
The alley way is fairly lit, a further up window lighting it up well enough to see. Against the alley wall was a stack of cardboard and other boxes leaned up on it.
“Just follow me, okay?” She affirms as she shoves the bag of good into her mouth and climbs on top the boxes before gripping onto a jutted out brick and swinging herself up to grasp at a window ledge. Once she’s not within kicking range, Adrien climbs up onto the boxes as well and follows her up to the balcony.
She’s waiting for him when he gets there, sitting criss-cross and playing with the latch on the door down to her bedroom.
Adrien leans down and sort-of half-crawls over to her, she stifles a giggle with her free hand as she unlatched the door. She gestures him down the ladder.
He follows here, pushing back his normal urges to cat-climb down into her loft, and avoids touching his shoes to the comforter. (Chat noir doesn’t really have shoes, so Adrien never really thought about it before this)
When they’re both down by her chaise, Marinette breaks the comfortable almost-silence. Do you want to eat some pastries and play video games? My parents think I’m doing homework so they won’t care if I run down to grab some, and what they don’t know won’t hurt them.”
Adrien grins widely, “That'd be great Marinette” He rests his palms in his lap, sitting with his calves pressed to his thighs. She smiles back at him and opens the door downstairs and runs to what he assumes is their kitchen.
He looks around the room as if he’s never seen it before. (And he definitely has, as Chat Noir alone and as Adrien with Nino and Alya) He takes in the posters of himself on the cork board above her desk, and the fabrics laid half-hazardly across the floor underneath it.
Vaguely he recognizes one of the smaller fabrics as a very expensive silk, and thinks to himself, that maybe he should buy her a roll,,, or two.
She comes back up in less than five minutes, a tray filled with pastries leftover from the bakery.
He moves forward to grab the tray from her, similarly as he did as chat, less so when the pins were missing, and give her an easier time getting up fully past the ladder.
Once up, she tilts her desk chair over the door, like how she did when Chat came over.
(Adrien wonders how many people Marinette has snuck over, or if the right was reserved for just him)
He sets the tray down in the ground next to him.
He asks the same question he first asked as Chat. “Won’t your parents hear us talking?”
Marinette waves a hand unbothered, grabbing a crepe off the tray and stuffing it into her mouth. “They’ll just assume I’m on a call with Alya, or, that I’ve given up on homework and is playing video games.
“I’m not exactly quiet, and uh-“ she seems to realize that he’s here, for a second time. “-you aren’t exactly super loud either, “ she sputters, “- not that it’s a bad thing! You can be a loud or as quiet as you want!”
Adrien chuckled and picks up a macaron, looking down at the filling inside, she’s grabbed his favourite flavor, again. Had he ever verbally told her that it was? Had she guessed it? Or,,, he looks back over to the posters of himself.
He takes a closer look at them, taking a bite of the macaron. Those were from his most recent shoot, and looked to be taken from the sidelines, as opposed to straight on, as his father liked them to be.
She really was his biggest fan.
“I didn’t realize you were at my most recent shoot.” He mentions casually. She was getting further in the fashion world after all, so maybe he should have expected it.
She chokes, picking up a napkin and covering her mouth as she stammered. “Uh—- yeah! Um, ive been doing that intern program that Vincent’s been doing, for photographers—“
Adrien smiles fondly at her. “—Im not into photography necessarily but I figured it’s be a good idea for if I produce anything to learn more about it and I should asked but I didn’t want—“
“Marinette” he says, cutting her off from rambling any further. “I do wish you would have told me, I would’ve loved to see you. And I’m not surprised you were there, even if it’s just for photography, you really are amazing, it’s nothing new” he takes another bite of the macaron, finishing it off.
Marinette face is red and she giggles a little bit, resting her cheek in her hand. “Thank- thank you, Adrien, you’re pretty incredible too.”
Adriens smile brightens. “Why don’t you tell me some of the stuff you learned, father never lets me stay long enough after to ask any questions, but I always thought it was really cool.”
He takes another macaron off the tray, and Marinette begins talking.
By the time she’s done telling him, and by the time Adrien had stopped listening, it was midnight. They knew it was getting later and later as Sabine and Tom had gone to bed and the noises outside stopped in frequency. The tray has been long since empty.
Marinette checks her phone and announces it being “twelve o’ clock” and Adrien sighs. He stands up, knees popping from how long he’d been sitting. Marinette rushes to stand up next to him.
“I better get home,” he looks out the window, “it’s pretty dark out. “
Marinette bites her lip, but doesn’t say anything. Adrien turns to face, “walk me out, or, um, down? I suppose” he jokes
She nods and they make it up to the balcony. “Thank you for inviting me over Marinette, I’m glad I was able to sneak out tonight, you’re much warmer than the mansion ever is”
“Of course a-Adrien, you’re welcome anytime, um-“
“Tell me next time you make it to the shoot, I’ll sneak you back so you can look at some of the designs up close.”
“Are you sure your father won’t be upset at us for that?” She looks nervous as she guides him to the edge of her balcony.
He looks over the edge, leaning on his forearms. “What he doesn’t know won’t hurt him.” He laughs. “Goodbye Mare.”
“Bye,,,”
He climbs down with Marinette's eyes on him, and as he makes the walk home, blue eyes and red ribbons watch him as he goes.
(And it wasn’t like he was worried anyways, He was already good with combat before Chat Noir, he was better now that he was. Muggers and psycho fans no longer carry the same weight to him anymore)

Might upload this to AO3, let me know if you’d want me to. :)

Disappear
Warning: The following fanfic contains salt! It contains everyone's favorite Cat hero getting rejected and Marinette having her agency. And me throwing the Mari///Chat ship into the trash where it belongs!
I dedicate this fanfic to my friend who converted from Mari///Chat to Vipernette. Because we both know what the best ship ever is! (*whispers* It's Vipernette!)
Well ok, it's kind of bad for me to dedicate this to her because this fanfic sucks I apologize! This fanfic went so much better in my head but I was thinking about you when I wrote this. Enjoy and Merry Christmas!
~~~~~
If Alya were here, she would tell Marinette she was once again the luckiest girl alive.
In Paris' latest Akuma attack, she crossed paths with Chat Noir and Viperion.
Viperion was composed and always had a mysterious look in his mint green eyes as if he were always calculating.
And Chat Noir.
Chat Noir…He was certainly full of himself.
Both boys kept her safe from the latest Akuma attack, and Marinette could finally catch her breath on the top of a tall building where she saw Paris was peaceful once more.
"Looks great, doesn't it Marinette?" Chat Noir said.
Marinette turned and saw Chat Noir and Viperion illuminated by the sunset. Chat Noir was giving his best toothy grin and doing his best to outshine Viperion, who had a soft smile as he held his harp close. Marinette admitted that, in his own way, Chat Noir was indeed cute, but he didn't interest her that much.
Viperion didn't seem bothered that his black cat friend enjoyed the spotlight. He just smiled at Marinette and played a gentle tune on his harp.
Marinette smiled as she fixed her hair. "Yes, it does."
But before she could enjoy more, she felt a particular sneaky cat making a move, and she instinctively took a step back and raised her arm. Chat Noir smiled at her.
"Just so you know, I can take you home, Mari," Chat said as she summoned a red rose in his hand.
Marinette took a moment to process this and then sheepishly smiled as she took another step back. "I can walk myself home. The weather is nice."
"But it would take too long," Chat Noir held out his hand. "You won't have to lift a finger if you choose me."
Marinette didn't need to ponder that decision long as she gave him a disapproving frown. "Sorry Chat Noir!" Marinette promptly walked away but stole a glance at Viperion before trying to find the exit.
"Could've sworn Marinette was interested in me," Chat Noir unapologetically said out loud.
Marinette internally sighed. She stopped momentarily and thought about what she wanted, but she wasn't sure if he felt the same. But now was an excellent time to seize the moment.
"Viperion!"
The snake hero's heart skipped a beat as his magical harp disappeared. "Yes Marinette!"
Marinette turned with a serious look on her face. She started running, and Viperion quickly understood. Marinette jumped into Viperion's arms. The snake hero quickly used his teleportation powers, and they disappeared in front of Chat Noir. To the cat boy's surprise, Viperion summoned pink rose petals, which Chat caught with his claws.
Chat Noir realized then that he should take a hint, but still…
"Can't blame a cat for trying!"
Viperion and Marinette were giggling when they teleported to the other side of the city. Marinette clung to Viperion as he held her safe in his arms. Everyone looked so small from the height they were at. But Marinette wasn't afraid. She gave Viperion a quick hug.
"Thank you for catching me," Marinette said softly. "And taking me to a whole new point of view!"
Suddenly, the wheels in Viperion's head turned, and he smiled at her, which Marinette thought was unbelievably adorable.
"I can take you somewhere else," Viperion said.
"Anywhere," Marinette said. "As long as it's with you," Marinette continued, not even trying to hide how flirty she was being.
They disappeared again in a green flash.
~
Marinette seemed a lot more relaxed as she stretched her arms and sat beside Viperion on a stone bench, and behind them was a bunch of pink roses swaying in the breeze as the moon shone above them. Marinette could live in this moment forever, the beautiful moon, the scent of pink roses, and the gentle sounds of Viperion's harp.
Viperion could live in this moment forever too. The snake hero would always play beautiful music for Marinette, even if he could never truly be with her because he is a hero. But as Marinette got tired and rested against him, Viperion smiled down at her and wondered. Why did she choose him?
Viperion's gentle harp filled her ears as she drifted off to sleep. Marinette didn't want to fall asleep at such a beautiful moment. Still, at the same time, if she was slipping and falling into beautiful dreams, then it felt right.
"You're amazing, Viperion," she mumbled as she closed her eyes.
Viperion gasped as he wrapped his arm around her to keep her secure. He ran his fingers through her shiny blue hair as she smiled and sighed while sleeping. It was the most beautiful music Viperion had ever heard. Still, he had to keep Marinette safe during the dark nights.
"I'll take you home, Marinette," he whispered.
He picked her up bridal style and used his powers to teleport into her bedroom. It was dark except for the moonlight shining through the balcony window, but still incredibly safe and filled with Marinette's creations. He gently laid her on her bed before pulling the lamp chord on her nightstand. Viperion smiled as Marinette looked like she was having the best sleep of her life, and he gently removed the strands of her hair from her face.
Viperion turned off the lamp as he decided to leave her to rest. But Marinette stirred in her sleep and rolled over, her smile a bit wider as she continued sleeping.
Viperion couldn't bring herself to leave her right now, and he summoned his harp and played her one last song. His magical musical notes circled Marinette and filled her entire room. He played longer than he should have and still felt melancholy when the song he created had to end. But he would play more music for Marinette and always be there for her, especially since she chose him. And he couldn't just walk away and forget about the beautiful melody that always supported him.
Viperion walked to the balcony door and looked at the full moon before turning to Marinette one last time.
"Goodnight Melody," he said before disappearing in a green light.
Marinette's dreams were full of magical melodies and adventures with the handsome snake hero. Still, Viperion couldn't help himself and teleported a pink rose in her hand before leaving again.
The beautiful music and the scent of a pink rose made this a night Marinette would never forget. Viperion held a single pink rose in his hand as he watched all of Paris as the stars sparkled above him.

Hi! I wanted to ask if I could request a Luka (miraculous) x ftm reader (he/they). Where reader moves to Paris and becomes the new student in marinettes class. Noone knows that he is trans yet and everyone refers to him as "she". Because of that he gets akumatised but he can change to his normal self while being akumatised. So noone knows the new villain is him because while he is in his akumatised form he looks like a boy, but when he changes back to his normal form he somewhat looks like a girl and acts completely normal. The thing is, he isn't aktually bad or wants to harm people. Hawkmoth told him, that when he steals ladybugs and cat noirs miraculous, Hawkmoth would turn him into a real boy. You can put as much angst and fluff and whatever you want in it if you decide to write it. Sorry if it is confusing. How the story ends is up to you, but maybe a happy ending :). Thank you, and have a nice day!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
If your uncomfortable or you want to change the pronouns you can tell me (⁠^⁠^⁠).

Angst and Fluff | Luka Couffaine x FTM!reader.
d/n:Deadname
Pronoums:He/They
PLEASE READ THIS:Reader is a still in closet and nobody knows he's/they are trans.
Never thought this would happen
It was 8:00AM when the teacher entered in the silent class,"Good morning students"the teacher said,"Good morning", the students said some half asleep and some others trying to not to fall asleep."I know you all aren't fully awake but I want you know that we have a new student"."You can come in".You entered the class looking at the floor,you walked straight were the teacher was and introduce your self,"Hi,i'm d/n".
It hurted you saying your birthname that you never felt like It was yours,but couldn't do anything,you were scared on how would people react.
"You can sit next to Ivan",then a tall boy raised his hand.Even tho it was your first at this new school you were scared because everyone was staring at you like you are some type of alien,but they are just curious.
After school you walked home while listening to music,when you arrived home you found a blue haired boy talking to your mom.
"Hey dear how was your first day of school?"you're mom said with a smile.
"It was good mom"you said looking confused at the blue haired boy.
"Oh I almost forgot,he's Luka Couffaine,my childhood best friend's son
"Luka,she is my daugther *deadname*"
You smiled uncomfortable not knowing what to do, after a few seconds he left because he had things to do.
After eating you went to your bedroom and lay down on your bed.You couldn't stop thinking about Luka,that boy that had you crazy from the second that saw him.
"He's so cute with that smile that is making me go crazy,wait,I just met him today,I can't fall in love with someone without knowing them" That's what you said to yourself.
In the last weeks you everytime you saw Luka he would say hi to you and sometimes even had little conversations.In the class you have been talking with almost everyone except for the blonde girl,Chloe and her friend Sabrina.
But we all know that hapiness isn't forever,one day you woke up without energy and not wanting to talk to anyone.In class you were quiet and your friends were worried about you.In the middle of the class you raised you hand,"Can I go to the bathroom?","Yes,but is everything is okay?",you didn't say anything,you just locked yourself in the bathroom and cried because everyone was refers to you as a girl,even if your not.Cried till you couldn't cry more,on the other side,Hawkmoth was prepared to akumatise his new victim.
A black and purple butterfly flew to you and akumatised you.
"Hello y/n","Who are you and how do you my name?"you said with a shaky voice,"I'm Hawkmoth and I am here to help you","Help me?,How are you going to help me?","I can make you look like a boy but... I want Ladybug and Chat Noir's miraculous".
There was silent for a few seconds,"So... Deal?"
"Deal but I want you to help me with some things because i just arrived a few weeks ago".You said with confidence on yourself.
*Toc Toc* "d/n,are you okay?Do you want to talk?"You hear Marinette worried voice.
You opened the door,without looking at Marinette,"I'm sorry for for worrying y'all,I was not in a good mood" you said while walking out of the bathroom.
It was break time and all you did was eat and listen to your friends.You didn't told anyone about Hawkmoth or that your are the new villain.
"So... Now I am an villain? I mean,they hurt people or try to win against heroes because of they're past.But I just want to be a boy,act and be treated as a boy"You were so deep on your thoughts that you didn't notice Alix talking to you,"Calling d/n to earth",while shaking you from your shoulders.
After that you went back to the class,during class you tried to do a plan in your mind of how to get the miraculous of Ladybug and Chat noir.
After the classes end,you said goodbye to you're friends and went home.
After hoy did all tour tasks, you told you're mom that you we're going for a walk,but that was a lie.
After a few minutes of walking you found a perfect place to active your power,the metro(in Paris the metro are underground).Luckily there wasn't anyone and you transformed,after you looked into the reflect of glass(imagine there was a window or something that could reflect) you saw a boy,you couldn't believe it)
When you came out from you hiding place,you saw that everyone that looked at you got scared, because even though you looked like a boy,you has the aspect of a "villain"
And this was the perfect moment for making some (desastre),the only way to catch ladybug and chat noir's attetion
(Just imagine the fight and all because I don't know how to do this part,sorry)
After a long fight,Ladybug tried to calm you down because she knew that you were innocent and it was all plan yo have the miracles.
Well you actually calmed down a bit.
Chat noir tried to aproach you slowly,in the end he succeded to break the akumatized object and have you back in your normal form.
After Ladybug restored everything,you fell down on your knees and repeting "I couldn't do it","It's over,I won't ever be an actual boy" while sobbing.
Ladybug and Chat noir stared at you with sad and worried eyes,they didn't know what to do or say.Ladybug sat next to you and tried to calm you down by hugging you.
"Little boy,look at me please" said chat noir while wiping away your tears,when he saw your puffy red eyes he got More worried but still tried to act calm for you."We don't know what made you do all of this but just let you know that we are here you anytime you need us"
And with that after a few minutes they dissapeard because their didn't have much time with their costumes on."We gotta go,don't have much time,see ya next time little boy".
After the weekend and all the incident that happened on friday you went back to daily routine,but this time was diferent,Marinette and Alya came to you and once again tried to be friends even after all the times you did never actually spoke too much.But this time you tried to actually be friends with them and tried your best so want be felt left out.
School was over and now you had summer vacations and with your group you went to a near park and the delicious ice cream from the sweet and kind man.Later y'all went to see the beautiful sunset on Luka's ship,"Guys I need to say something"you said while playing with your hands because of the nerves."I- I'm trans,I am boy who is trapped in girls body,and that my name is y/n"
There was a loud silence before everyone hugged,you were surprised because you would have never thought that this will happen.
"It's okay y/n, don't worry,we accept as you truly are","Our sweet and kind boy,we love you and we are proud that you had so much trust on us to tell this"

Isekai'd as Chloe
Tumblr media
You were watching Miraculous Ladybug on your phone as your bus got hit by a truck. You died, it sucks. But a godly being gives you the chance to start anew in a brand new world. Sadly it's Miraculous, with all the plotholes, and flat characters, and don't forget worshipped while being a sexual abuser Adrien Agreste/Chat Noir. Could your day get any worse? You shouldn't have asked because you were reborn as Chloe and forgot who Papillion was. Someone wanted to see you suffer, that was sure! But you wouldn't give them the satisfaction. It was time to throw canon out of the window and make Miraculous a better show or in your case world!
Main Pairing: Reader/Luka Couffaine/Marinette Dupain-Cheng
Tumblr media
Chapter 10: All cards on the table
“Are you sure you want to progress like that, [Y/N]?”, asked you Master Fu.
It was early morning, even before school, as you sat with the guardian of the Miraculous in his little massage parlor and were discussing what you should do next.
Plagg was taking a nap on your shoulder and Wazyy was drinking like you humans tea.
“After Adrien is now totally out of the picture, the only way to get the Miraculous Spellbook is to: a) Steal it, but we could get the Colletor as Akuma or b) wait till Lila comes into the picture because I know that’s the day Mr. Agreste takes out the book from his safe and I can just say I saw him doing it and as a wearer of the Miraculous it’s my right to have the book or a copy of it.”, you listen again.
“And option B will mostly prevent an Akuma?”, wonders Wazyy.
“Yeah, I think so. Mr. Agreste wants just to keep the original book I don’t think if one of the superheroes of Paris asks him for a copy he will be upset enough…and if he will, then we have a candidate for being Papillion.”, you remind.
Master Fu sipped thoughtfully his tea.
“An Akuma at our hands or a step closer to finding out who Papillion is…Both options are risky in their own way.”
“That’s way we need to have Marinette now on board.”, you insist. “She needs to know about you Master so you can teach us both in the way of the guardians. Also, I think it’s best she knows my full story, I’m sick of it of being hated by her as Chloe. If our partnership has to work no secrets. Secrets screwed over the canon partnership of the ladybug and the cat, we can’t take this risk.”
Wazyy hummed in agreement, while Master Fu locked like he bit into a lemon. You bet anything in him, his guardian training was screaming no at this plan, but he couldn’t fight the logic.
You already knew Marinette’s identity.
It was only fair she knows yours and learns the truth about yourself. It will make you a stronger team.
Then you two with Master Fu would decide who to give out the other Miraculous and train with them to be ready on Hero’s Day.
Hero’s Day was set to be the end of all this.
Papillion would curse the day he decide to come out of his hidey hole and with luck he would lead you straight to Mayura too.
“I see your points [Y/N]. I really do, it’s just so hard for me to go against the rules of the order. I did it once and it ended in a catastrophe.”
“Please Master, believe me, it’s better this way. How you did it in the original timeline didn’t work out.”
Master Fu signed but nodded.
He trusted your judgment and knowing what had happened in the original timeline, he couldn’t really disagree.
He promised he would send word to Marinette today. This evening all cards shall be laid out on the table.
You would be lying if you said you weren’t a bit nervous. Would Marinette believe your story, would she see and accept the truth?
Accepted you?
For now, you could only thank Master Fu for agreeing with you and for the tea.
It was time to go to school to prevent another Akuma.
Reflekta.
Tumblr media
Since she know Adrien and Chat Noir had been the same person…Marinette hadn’t been the same.
She had sworn… sworn to herself that after what happened last year with Kim no boy would trick her again.
Like possessed she had tried to find out anything about Adrien. Her room full of pictures of him. Presents for years and years to come prepared.
But that all got destroyed as she saw the boy behind the mask.
Chat Noir had always flirted with her, never accepted when she said no, and continued, even calling her this stupid nickname she detested after she told him to stop.
He proclaimed to like her, love her, yet he didn’t care how she felt about it and what she said.
Him been Adrien, who after all her research…no call it right Marinette, stalking had seemed like an angel from above was devastating.
Again she had been tricked.
And worse…she had become this crazy obsessed stalker because of him.
How could she have fallen so much all in the name of "love"?
Yes, she had a traumatic experience, but it didn’t give her the right to act the way she did.
So after she had returned home that day, she ripped and burned all Adrien-related things and took a deep look into herself.
Marinette realized, that she was probably not ready to let in someone again in her heart. She didn’t want to turn crazy Stalker again.
So she decides to take a break from all romantic things.
It was better that way.
Anyway, the good thing was that Adrien got out of his abusive home and Alya had not only cleared the Ladyblog of Chat Noir, but she also support Marinette in her healing.
Alya admitted too, that she had been an enabler. Instead of pointing out how sick her behavior was, Alya was so into supporting her ships that she didn’t see the red flags also.
The two best friends had a long heart-to-heart after Lady Wifi.
The midnight black-haired girl had a feeling that her friendship with Alya had only deepened and transformed. It was an amazing feeling.
After all these crazy days it was a bit funny to take something like a school photo.
All were still reeling from Adrien being Chat Noir, then him going into forest care and his father would face a trial for child abuse, that hearing about Juleka and her supposed curse was a nice change.
Weird, right?
But Marinette took this change to help her friend.
After the photograph had arranged them to his liking, he took the photo and Marinette felt her heart light seeing Juleka’s pretty smile of happiness.
Seemed like a curse was broken.
And she could help people without being Ladybug.
It was a nice feeling.
Then it was time for lunch. She was ready to eat with Alya and the other girls, as she felt how Tikki poked her through the purse.
Must be something important, since her kwami left her alone in school if an Akuma wasn’t on the loose.
So she told her friends to go to the cafeteria without her because she needed to use the bathroom.
A lie, of course, but the only safe space she could talk with Tikki.
After she carefully closed the door to the bathroom stall she let Tikki fly out of her purse.
Her kwami floated before her with crossed flippers.
“Marinette, what I gonna tell you will sound probably really confusing for you, but it’s time.”
She frowned.
“Whatever it is I’m ready to hear it Tikki.”
“That’s good to hear. It’s time that you meet someone special. The one who gave you the Miraculous.”
The midnight black-haired girl thought she heard wrong.
“Wait a second?! Does it mean it wasn’t yourself who choose me to be Ladybug?”
“No it was the honorable Guardian of the Miraculous…and he will meet you and Calamity today in his home.”
Speechless couldn’t even describe what Marinette was feeling.
The world…it was changing so fast.
Tumblr media
As Calamity, you sat again at Master Fu’s tea table and enjoyed a nice cup of tea, only now it was evening.
You were happy that no Reflekta Akuma happened, and also that Juleka’s "curse" or whatever had ended.
One day, if things would be going well, she would be your sister-in-law. Also, you liked her, it was nice seeing a problem being resolved without the need for superheroes.
All in all a good day.
Still, you wonder again why Papillion didn’t make another Akuma today. Someone at least in Paris had to have a shit day. It was a big city!
Or…was he occupied with other things?
If he was who you thought he was then he was surely searching for a really good lawyer and trying to get Adrien back in his grabby hands.
But could he really be Papillion? Were the creators of the show so without fantasy, they just made the dad of one of the superheroes the villain?
…Well, Miraculous Ladybug had crappy writing, honestly, it would be shocking if it was someone else.
Yet, could it be so simple?
Maybe….you should just tell Fu after Marinette was on board and all, that you should just start swinging at Gabriel Agreste and see what happened.
You could find a reason why you attacked him surely.
You just wanted to end this show and then live a nice happy life in this world without stupid Papillion around.
Maybe some competent supervillain would appear, so you could use your powers really for the good of humanity.
You already have told Fu, that after Papillion and Mayura were done, you would hunt down Feast, defeat him, and get the Miraculous Order back.
Then maybe scream at them for an hour or so since their teachings were shit. In what world was it a good idea to take children from their homes and practically force them to become guardians?
So no wonder one day one child, Fu, snapped.
You still don’t get what sense it made to not eat for 24 hours and protect the Miraculous Box. What showed this test?
Whatever you would cross this bridge when it was time.
Right now you heard how the door behind you opened.
Every so calm Fu greeted Ladybug.
You turned also around.
Marinette was indeed transformed, skeptical looking around the little Massage Parlor. After she saw you, she seemed to relax more.
You gave her a reassuring smile.
Hesitantly she smiled back.
Master Fu invited her to sit with you guys.
“So you are the one who choose me as Ladybug and…Agreste as Chat Noir.”, it was not a question, she just stated things.
The master gave her a tiny nod, which made her frown.
“What made you think me and especially Agreste were the right ones for the job? What kind of method did you use to pick us?”
You had to bite your tongue to stop yourself from laughing. You kinda told Fu the same.
Of course, the master remembers how you have called him out and can’t help but smile a bit at Ladybug.
“Calamity asked the same things before I made her the new black cat. I assure you I thought at the time, that my test was sufficient, but I realized now that it was really flawed. With you I had luck. You are a good person, in and out of the suit, Ladybug. Chat Noir hides his true color well, even from me.”, he admitted.
Ladybug huffed crossing her arms. She said that she was glad that you all were at least on the same page now.
The Master apologize to her for the mess he had made, which Ladybug accept after a few seconds.
She was too good of a person to hold a grudge.
At least if your name didn’t rhyme with liar, but Lila was crazy smart and evil, so she had a right to hold a grudge against her.
If all worked as planned, Rossi would never give you trouble, as she did in the canon timeline. If she tried, you had already a few plans to counter that.
Then it was time to tell you her story.
You hoped all would go well.
Tumblr media
Ladybug admitted…she wasn’t sure what to think of all that.
Her life, in another dimension, been a television show for kids?
How some misogynist dude and his posse gave her trauma over trauma and practically worshipped the ground Agreste had walked?
The universe was really against her, she been the punchline for many stupid jokes.
Your face as you told her about an Akuma named Backwarder had been really something. She didn’t want to think that she could have embarrassed herself so much in the future.
Then this Kwami Dime and Khee who had a sadist pleasure to let reborn people from other dimensions here, living the life of another, till it ended in suicide?
You been reborn as someone she hated?
It was all so…crazy.
Yet a part of her, who got bigger with any revelation and Master Fu telling her that this hadn’t been the first time nor would it be probably the last, started to believe.
Then you transformed back and her chin meet the floor.
Now all made sense!
“You are Chloe?! That’s why she changed so much, you live now in her body!”, she shouted, pointing a finger at you.
You smiled crookedly.
“Yeah…you guys weren’t far off with the alien theory.”
“You heard that?”
“Yep.”
 This was mindblowing.
“So who are you?”, asked Ladybug curious.
You told her how when you were Calamity, that this was your true body, besides the cat accessory obviously, and told her as much as you could about yourself and your old life.
After that, she was quiet for a while.
You, Fu, Plagg, and Wazyy looked at each other.
What would Ladybug to next?
Well, she detransformed holding a hand out to you and told you smiling: “It’s nice to meet you [Y/N], thank you for helping me already so much and being on my side. I hope we can be friends.”
It was like a huge weight got lifted from your chest.
Marinette, and also Tikki it seemed, since the little kwami smiled cutely at you, seemed to accept you.
You took her soft hand and shook it.
“The honor is all mine, Marinette. I always wanted to meet you… Being your friend is like the greatest gift you can make me.”
That made her smile prettily, a cute blush on her face.
Yeah, suck it Dime and Khee, you were winning at life!

Tea: A short pre canon Marinette x Chat Noir fic
(I wrote this during my job out of boredom. Didn’t read through it. Probably ass.)
It was just another average night. No villains thankfully, but sheer boredom drove Felix out into the sleeping city as the enigmatic Chat Noir. He pranced along the roofs and soared high above the buildings.
Then, something caught his attention. A girl lolling on one of the rooftops, a teapot right beside her. Chat Noir squinted his eyes to get a closer look… Marinette?
He screeched to a stop, before turning towards her. Well, it didn’t hurt to say hello. Heck, he could even try flirting with her a little. For fun.
“A lovely night, huh.” A familiar voice called out. Marinette yelped at the suddenness, then frowned. There could only be one person…
“Ah.” Was all she could reply. Her face twitched trying to hide her annoyance. Bowing, Chat Noir smirked cheekily at her.
“Get it? Knight and night sound the same and it’s like I’m praising myself.”
The joke was clever, genius even. Chat Noir beamed with pride and waited eagerly for Marinette’s response. At first, she glanced away, then replied with a smile.
“You’re real funny.” Sarcasm oozed out of her before she could stop herself. But luckily, Chat Noir didn’t seem to pick up on it. He plopped down beside her, grinning even wider.
“Well someone gets it. Unlike a certain partner of mine. What’re you doing up here anyways?” Chat Noir asked.
As much as she didn’t want to talk to anyone, which is the whole reason why she came up to the roof in the first place, Marinette gave up trying to shoo the stray cat away. An ear, any ear, could help. She sighed.
“My best friend and I got into a fight. Said she was growing sick of me.”
“Why?”
“Well, I like this guy. A lot. A lot can’t even describe it. He’s like, one of the best things to ever happen to me. But recently, he’s been taking over my mind too much and Alina hates that… She said he wasn’t worth it.”
Maybe it was because Marinette didn’t really have any fondness towards Chat Noir that she was able to speak to him freely. In a sense, with him, she could be her most raw self. Even so, she surprised herself with how quickly she was able to get all that out.
Marinette poured the oolong tea out into two cups and gave one of them to Chat Noir.
He received it gingerly, staring at the clear orange liquid, then at Marinette as she sipped on her cup. Now that he thought of it, was he ever this close to her? Physically? No matter how much he tried to pull himself away, his gaze always wandered back on her.
The way she looked at the night sky, blue eyes round and reflecting the twinkling specks of dust that scattered above them, was beautiful. No she, she was beautiful.
“Chat Noir?”
Chat Noir snapped out of his daze. Whistling, he ran his fingers through his hair. Then laughed loudly, painfully awkwardly.
“I wasn’t looking at you. Who gave you that idea? My heart is only for Lady-” Chat Noir stopped. “How d’you know my name?”
This time, it was Marinette’s turn to falter “Uhhh, lucky guess? Not that I have luck powers or anything. You’re a black cat, it’s night time… Chat Noir? It’s not too hard to get.”
“Seriously? And I spent like a week thinking up of it!” Chat Noir whined, gulped down the tea and fell on his back. Dumb as ever, Marinette thought, chuckling quietly.
“So… why is he not worth it then?”
Chat Noir knew clear as day who “he” was referring to. It wasn’t much of a secret, Marinette was always obvious with her feelings. One of the things that made her more amusing than the rest.
Marinette poured more tea into his cup.
“Rude, stuck up, rich boy.”
Chat Noir winced. Ouch.
“But he’s not like that! Alina just hasn’t talked to him yet.”
“Maybe you are being a bit too… obsessed isn’t the right word but… I’m sure the guy doesn’t mind but maybe Alina does. She’s your best friend. Maybe she feels you’re caring about her less? Just an assumption. Don’t know anything. But try talking to her. Figure out her feelings.”
His words were a bit harsh. But as she drank her own tea, Marinette slowly digested what he said. It was true she was spending less and less time with Alina and more time on Felix. She couldn’t help it. It was the way things were, the way her heart always was.
But she never once put herself in Alina’s shoes. Marinette looked down into her empty cup. All the times she shared tea with Alina, when was the last time she did that? Sniffling, tears welled up in her eyes.
“Y-you okay?” Chat Noir hastily sat up and went over to her. Suddenly, two arms wrapped tightly around him. Marinette buried her head into his chest, a soft, sorrowful smile on her face.
“You’re not too bad. Thank you.”
Burning red rose to Chat Noir’s cheeks as he froze in place, not sure what to do. Then, slowly, his hand rested on the top of her head. Her smile was contagious and soon, he found himself smiling too.
“Good luck Marinette.”
“Marinette? How did you know-“
She pulled away from him. Oops. Chat Noir needed to get out of there, fast. He took a few steps back, then a few more.
“Oh would you look at the time! I have to get going to fight off monsters and stuff… See ya!”
And with that, Chat Noir jumped away and slipped into the night.
After watching him disappear, Marinette stood up, teapot and cups in hand, and crawled back into her room.
“I’ll give Alina a call.”

Sariahsue ( @sariahsue​ )
I mostly know Sariah for her incorrect quotes, but reading her works on AO3, I discovered she also have a nice pen too. Most of the works are short (read ‘bite-sized’), or are made of short chapters, which makes it easy to read during breaks. 
💛 The Gift of Her Name -  Words:9553 - Chapters:4/4 Summary: Ladybug and Chat Noir are two halves of a dynamic duo. They are best friends, inseparable, unstoppable. As soulmates, Marinette and Adrien- though they've never met- are two halves of a whole, and Gabriel will stop at nothing to keep them separated.
What I liked: Soulmate AU, Gabriel’s despicableness, the end’s fluffiness
💚 A Cat of Their Own -  Words:29514 - Chapters:11/11 Summary: Tom and Sabine have learned Ladybug's secret identity, it's obvious their relationship It's also obvious to them that Cat Noir adores their daughter. How deep do those feelings go? And how far are they willing to go to mother the boy underneath the mask?
What I liked: The Dupain-Cheng being the parents Adrien so badly needs, Over-protective Sabine, The way Marinette figured it out, The entire last chapter
💚 Mischief -  Words:388 - Chapters:1/1 Summary: Chat Noir dove through Marinette's window, knowing he had only mere minutes before she returned from patrol. His lady had told him she would be taking the long way home, and that he'd better not use the chance to peek at her diary, after she'd been hinting all evening that she'd written some very flattering things about both sides of him in there.
What I liked: Actual cat Chat Noir
💚 Miscommunication -  Words:773 - Chapters:1/1 Summary: Adrien was preparing dinner for his wife. Or trying to.
What I liked: It fits my headcanon that Adrien’s a disaster in a kitchen
💚 Miraculously Fluffy -  Words:11306 - Chapters:7/7 Summary: This is my contribution to Miraculous Fluff Month. All adorableness, all the time. Featuring such things as Tom x Sabine, Dadrien, and Adrienette curled up in the sunshine, like cats.
What I liked: The fluffiness (duh!), Tom&Sabine chapter, Plagg’s shenanigans in chap6, The entire chap7
💚 Stars -  Works:4 - Complete: No Summary: "Are you sure you don't want to know my identity?" Chat Noir snuck another glance at the Adrien poster she'd tacked next to her bed. She wasn't sure if he knew she'd seen each time he'd done it tonight. "I'm sure," she said, patting the spot next to her.
What I liked: the soft reveal, Sabine’s advices
💚 Rivals Are Always One "Make Me" Away From Kissing -  Words:10378 - Chapters:1/1 Summary: Tossing the controller onto the desk, Adrien reached for Marinette’s waist and slid her into his lap. She came willingly, looping her arms around his neck and weaving her fingers into his hair. (An Adrinette no powers video game AU)
What I liked: the banter, the natural way they fell in love
💚 The Open Line -  Words:42657 - Chapters:32/32 Summary: "Maybe, Cat Noir admitted as Oblivio knocked him back once again, maybe it was his fault. Just a little. But in his defense, Ladybug was at the top of her game today, and it was absolutely irresistible." An Oblivio alternate ending, where she never learns his identity but remembers what it was like to fall in love with him, and how she slowly falls in love with him all over again. (More like a PG than a G.)
What I liked: The akuma fight, The alternative Oblivio, The reveal, Marinette fighting Adrien’s insecurities
💚 Seeing Double -  Words:12612 - Chapters:7/7 Summary: Ladybug has discovered Cat Noir's secret identity, and he doesn't know that she knows. And she doesn't know that he knows hers. He doesn't know who Marinette has a crush on. She doesn't know why Adrien is suddenly flirting with her.
What I liked: The akuma fight, The official reveal, Alya being Alya
💚 What Will You Do When Everyone Knows? -  Words:34170 - Chapters:13/13 Summary: They stepped in closer, shoulder to shoulder to catch the akuma as she landed, but she twisted in midair, landing squarely in front of Cat Noir, swiping at him. He stepped back, trying to keep his balance. Her fingertips almost touched his face, and Ladybug felt her stomach lurch. “Duck!” she yelled to him as she whipped her yoyo around. He did, but unfortunately, the akuma woman did, too. Ladybug suddenly had no target to latch onto and lost her balance. Her stomach twisted again as she pitched forward. Black hands darted forward to catch her, but too late she realized it wasn't her partner. Cold gloves caught her shoulder and neck, then slid up her face, brushing past her earrings. Cold. The woman's touch froze Ladybug's breath in her throat. Then there was something warm around her middle. Cat Noir's shout sounded distant as he pulled her away. As the woman's black gloves left her face, Ladybug felt even more heat being pulled from her, along with... something else.
What I liked: The akuma is just awesome, Supportive Tom&Sabine, Marinette understanding that sharing secret identities might not be so bad after all
Honorable mentions:

Pretend boyfriend - Chapter 1
Chapter 1 | Ch2 | Ch3 ____________________
I wrote something silly. Enjoy?
Summary:
Chat Noir tells Ladybug in a spaz that he has a boyfriend and asks Luka to pretend and fill in for the role for a double date with her and her boyfriend. The problem is he's trying to make Ladybug jealous… and Luka is caught in the middle of it when he's also the spotted hero's date.
*Thank you @nerdypanda3126 for checking it for me! :D
AO3
________________________
Chapter 1
"Chat Noir! I told you! I'm not going out with you. We're partners, nothing more!" Ladybug yelled for the fifth time after her superhero partner's insistence to go out on a date. "Besides, I have a boyfriend!" 
"What?" Chat Noir gasped. That was news to him.
"I told you I had a crush on a boy!" Even if it wasn't that same boy anymore… Chat didn't need to know that, Ladybug internally decided. 
"T-that's not a problem! I didn't mean it that way- of course we're just partners! I have a boyfriend too!" Chat said, suddenly standing tall.
"You do?" The spotted heroine blinked. 
"Yes- the best." He winked. 
"I don't know… I find it hard to believe…" Her eyes narrowed in doubt. 
"Why don't we go on a double date and you can see it with your own eyes? Bring your boyfriend, with a mask, if necessary, and the four of us can hang out!" The cat hero suggested with a wink. 
"I don't think that's a good idea... identities and such-" She panicked.
"Oh, so you were just making it up? You don't have a boyfriend!" Chat smirked, raising a brow. 
"I- I do! O-o-o-of course I do!"
"Right…" It was obvious from his expression that he didn't believe her.
"Fine! I'll show you! Let's meet here in two hours! And you better bring your boyfriend with you or you're dead!" She finished with a threatening pointing finger as she swung her yo-yo, securing her leave.
"Of course." He posed goofily with a thumbs up. 
It wasn't until Ladybug left that he gulped, and cold sweat descended down his cheek. 
The problem was… he didn't have a boyfriend. He had just said that without thinking, out of ugly jealousy. Where could he find a boyfriend in a few hours?? 
Nino? No, he was taken… as were many of his friends… except-
Luka.
Handsome. Sensitive. Attentive. Pure heart. Always ready to help.
Perfect.
_________
"Luka!" 
"Chat Noir?" The blue-haired boy left his guitar aside to open the fisheye window of his cabin that the cat hero had just knocked on, letting him in.
"I need your help! It's a matter of life or death!" He rushed to say.
That made Luka immediately serious. It wasn't the first time Ladybug and Chat Noir asked for his help as a superhero. It wasn't strange if they asked him again. As he had already told them before, he would never turn down the offer to help them keep Paris, his city, safe from the villains. 
"Tell me how I can help." 
"I need you to pretend to be my boyfriend!" Chat stated, too nervous to be taken as a joke. That left Luka perplexed.
"What…?" He blinked.
"Please??" Chat's hands joined together with his, begging with his bright green dazzling puppy eyes.
"Ugh… is this really…?" 
"A matter of life or death!" Chat repeated with impatience.
Luka was unsure of the whole thing, but he thought it must be important. He seemed desperate…
"Okay…"
"Thank you!" Chat beamed, giving him a quick hug. "Come to the Trocadero at 4pm! And don't tell anyone- it's a secret mission! Bye!"
It took a moment for Luka to recompose and process what just happened. That was unexpected. Chat had already left when he realized-
"Wait! Chat! I can't-"
Crap. 
Bad timing. Because Ladybug had just asked him to hang out with her for a strategic reunion. Same time. Unknown place. She was going to pick him up. 
How was he supposed to cancel if he couldn't call either of them? 
Luka cursed with a low pitched guitar strumming.
____
Ten minutes before the scheduled time, the spotted superheroine entered Luka's cabin through the window that Luka had already left open on purpose.
"Luka? Are you ready?" 
"Ladybug!" The boy was nervous. "I have to tell you something."
"Sure. What is it?"
"I have another appointment and I have to be at the Trocadero at 4pm…"
"Oh." Ladybug blinked. "No problem, that's exactly where we're going."
"Hm?" 
Luka couldn't say anything more as Ladybug carried him in her arms and threw her yoyo towards their destination. Five minutes later, they arrived there.
"Good, we're here." She put him down. 
The ride gave him time to think, coming to the conclusion that he should tell her about Chat Noir. He had doubts.
"Ladybug, I-"
A baby cry interrupted him. 
"Crap- I'll be right back- August again. Ugghh." She left him alone, but not for long, since a few seconds later Chat Noir landed behind him.
"Luka! I'm so glad you came!" he said, approaching as he shortened his baton and put it back in place.
"Look, Chat, I-" Luka started.
"Ah, there she is!" Chat exclaimed with a cocky grin.
"Chat. You came," Ladybug returned.
"I came, and I'm not alone!" He smirked.
Luka turned, with a forced, insecure, smile. His hand up as a greeting. "Hi…?"
"Luka?"
"He's my boyfriend," Chat proudly said.
"Luka is your boyfriend!?" Ladybug exclaimed in shock. "Nonono he can't be!"
"Hm? Why not?" Chat asked.
"Because he's MY boyfriend!" She yelped.
"What-!?"
"What?"
Both boys looked at Ladybug, confused, mouth open in shock.
"I mean - not officially because I haven't asked him out yet but-" Ladybug blushed nervously, as she peeked at Luka from under her lashes, fingers covered in sweat, tapping on each other non-stop. 
"I knew it! You don't have a boyfriend! You were lying to me!" Chat hurried to protest with an accusatory pointing finger. 
"No! He confessed to me that one time when he was akumatized and I want to date him! I love him!! I've loved him since then! I wanted to ask him out today! That's why- Argh!!" She groaned, exasperated. "Is it true Luka? Are you two-?" she asked, looking as if she was about to cry.
Luka frowned and took a moment to catch his breath before he finally asked Chat Noir. 
"What's all this about?"
The cat hero stiffened, nervously sweating. But he couldn't come up with any excuse that would leave him in a good picture. Realizing it, Luka continued.
"You told me it was an emergency, Chat- a matter of life or death- but it turns out it's just you lying and using me to try to make Ladybug jealous?"
"Well…" Chat sweated even more now as Luka's displeased eyes looked through him. "She was gonna kill me if I didn't bring a boyfriend with me, so I wasn't lying! I had no choice!" 
"…Seriously?" Ladybug and Luka said with judging expressions.
"And you Ladybug…" Luka focused on her next. "I think you should have been honest. You know I'm open to talk anytime. Superhero stuff or not, I'll always be happy to help you." Ladybug melted at his sincerity and kindness. "As for your feelings…" She squeaked and blushed when he held her hands lightly, looking straight into her eyes with the softest smile. "I'm truly grateful, but my heart is already taken by this wonderful girl called Marinette."
"Wha-" 
Ladybug blushed even more and Luka's smile curved subtly to the side before he let go of her, took a step back and focused on both superheroes.
"So sorry, but I can't date either of you. Call me if you need hero-related help." He ended, turning his back on them and raising his hand. "Bye."
Ladybug and Chat stared at him as he left.
"I love him…" they said in unison. 
"What!?"
"What!?"
"Nonono! I saw him first!" Ladybug hurried to protest.
"I don't care, you're not his crush! That's Marinette!" Chat argued.
"Which means you should back off!"
"And so should you!" Chat paused as he cleared his voice. "But love isn't something to give up easily so if I keep insisting maybe he'll love me back someday and-" he was hopefully staring at Luka's back becoming smaller.
"Chat!! That's not how it works! You should know that at this point!! Arrghhh!!" She groaned. "And that's my future boyfriend we're talking about! What about that 'meant to be' mantra you kept repeating?"
"Oh? Now you're interested? Too late. I changed targets." He winked before running to chase after the boy. "Hey, Luka!!!!"
"Wait, Chat! That's unfair!" Ladybug ran, catching him up.
"I'm gonna win this!" He said goofily.
"No, you won't!" 
Luka had barely managed to turn before both heroes tackled him, making him fall on his back.
"Ouch!" he took a moment to process the weight on him. "Chat? Ladybug?"
And they started fighting.
"Leave him alone!"
"No, you!"
"Grr," both said.
"Oh, no…" Luka let his body rest on the cold pavement and cursed. What had he done to get caught in such a troublesome situation?
Fin?

Fashion Faux Paw CH6 (FINAL)
The final chapter is here! Thank you so much to @avrilmaria for betaing for me and for the mods of @mlbigbang​ for hosting the event! The art for this chapter was done by @miraculousshellie on Instagram! Please send her lots of love. I had a lot of fun working on this story, and I hope you all enjoy it!
Read on AO3 
Chapter 6
Marinette braced, clinging close to Chat Noir as he flipped to take the brunt of their fall. He cradled her head as they rolled, and she found herself looking up into his desperate green eyes.
“Plagg, transform me!” The dark suit materialized over his clothes, replacing his makeshift mask and cat ears with the magic of his Miraculous. Green sclera twinkled with worry as they scanned Marinette. “Are you okay?”
“Yeah, fine.” She nodded.
Chat Noir sat up, brandishing his staff in a defensive stance in front of her. Five angry fangirls now adorned in black cat suits outfitted with an assortment of cat-themed weapons to rival Chat Noir stood at the end of the hall. The one at the front of the pack wore a black helmet with two cat ears sticking out of the top, clearly distinguishing herself as the leader.
“Step aside, sweet kitty. The Felines are going to teach that brat how to treat you,” she said.
“That’s not necessary. Marinette and I had a little misunderstanding, but we’re fine now. Don’t let Hawkmoth take advantage of your anger.” Chat Noir shot back.
“You’re the one being taken advantage of by that nasty girl, my prince! It’s up to us to make sure she receives justice.”
Marinette stifled an eye roll and surveyed her exit options. She needed to slip away to transform, but something told her that would be easier said than done with multiple akumatized victims chasing after her.
“Do you think you can cover me long enough to get away?” she asked Chat Noir.
“I don’t think running is the best idea. You’ll be safer next to me where I can protect you,” he said.
Oh boy.
“You’ll be able to focus on defeating them if you don’t have to worry about taking care of me,” she said.
“This isn’t a negotiation. I don’t want anything happening to you, so just-”
Marinette pulled him out of the way of another cat-shaped projectile, much to the annoyance of his fangirls.
“How dare you touch him!” the Felines shrieked.  
“I was saving him from you!” Marinette huffed.
“Oh! Kitty kitty, we don’t want to fight you.”
“Just hand over that girl, and we’ll leave you alone.”
“We don’t want you getting hurt again because of her.”
“Not gonna happen. I won’t let you take her.” Chat Noir pulled Marinette close.
She sighed. It looked like she was going to navigate this fight on the downlow as she doubted Chat Noir was going to let her out of his sight. He was a good kitty, but his protective nature was incredibly annoying when he was preventing her from transforming.
“We’re not in a good position in the hall, they have a straight line of fire at us. We should move back to the showroom where it’s more open.” Marinette suggested.
“Got it.” Chat Noir nodded.
He twirled his staff, deflecting weapons and attacks as they backed up the hall toward the showroom. With more room to maneuver, Marinette ducked behind an overturned table, while Chat Noir tussled with the Felines. There weren’t a lot of escape routes that didn’t cross paths with one of the Felines or Chat Noir, but if she ducked behind the curtain, she could transform without being spotted. Crawling on her hands and knees, she skirted for the safety of the curtain, but before she could issue the command for Tikki, she nearly collided with a set of wide hazel eyes.
“Alya!” Marinette gasped.
Alya squirmed with an annoyed grunt, her hands and feet bound by cat-ropes and mouth gagged with a black cat cloth. Marinette set to work untying her, and her friend let out a breath when she was free of her gag.
“Sorry, girl. I would have warned you, but they ambushed me the second I came back from the bathroom,” she said.
“No worries. I’m just glad you’re okay.” Marinette hugged her. “Chat Noir has his hands full out there. We’ve got to help him before they take his Miraculous and expose his secret identity.”
“Shouldn’t we wait for Ladybug to show up?” Alya asked.
“Uhh…” Marinette winced. “We don’t know how long that will take, so we need to act now before it’s too late. Come on, haven’t you ever wanted to be a hero?”
“You know I have,” Alya said pointedly. “Alright, so what’s the plan?”
Marinette peeked through the curtains, surveying the room for anything they could use to defeat the akuma. If she couldn’t have a real lucky charm, she was going to have to make do with what she had, which wasn’t much.
“Hmm…” She hummed.
“Hey, watch it!” one of the Felines growled.
“You watch it! You almost hit his face with that last punch.” Another one shot back.
“I would never!”
A smile broke over Marinette’s lips, and she turned back to Alya. “I have an idea how to defeat the akuma and rid myself of my Chat Noir curse, follow my lead.”
Slipping back through the curtain, Marinette crept over to an overturned display table where a pile of cat berets lay abandoned on the ground. Taking a bundle in her hands, she stood up and tossed one across the room at one of the Felines.
“Ya know, I think it’s kind of funny. You five claim to be Chat Noir’s biggest fans, but I bet I know more about him than any of you.” She taunted. “After all, he and I spent a lot of time together creating these hats.”
Chat Noir spun on her with wide eyes. “Marinette, I don’t think that’s the best-”
“How dare you!”
“You don’t deserve to be close to Chat Noir.”
Marinette dodged a kick that destroyed her easel of designs, throwing hats as she backed toward a set of mannequins. The Felines ripped through the hats with ease, stalking toward her.
“I bet you don’t even know what his favorite snack is.” Marinette smirked, pushing the mannequins into one of the Felines before she could pounce.
“It’s croissants!” one Feline declared.
“No, it’s macarons!”
“Ooo, sorry, Felines.” Alya hissed. “The correct answer is chouquettes.”
“What?” The Felines spun on Chat Noir who shrank with a sheepish wince.
“They’re right.” He confirmed, flicking his gaze between Alya and Marinette.
“See? You can’t even answer a simple question about Chat Noir,” Marinette said. “And even if you could, there’s no way Chat Noir could be with all five of you, so which one of you will get to be with him? I’m sure one of you is a bigger fan than all the rest.”
“Me!” all five Felines answered at the same time.
“No, I am!”
“No, me!”
“Are you kidding? We all know it’s me.”
The Felines turned on each other, claws barred and weapons drawn.
“Uh, ladies, I hate to break it to you, but-” Alya stuffed a literal sock in Chat Noir’s mouth and shook her head.
One Feline pounced on another, the two tumbling to the floor in a heap of hair and claws. Two more grappled with the leader, swinging elbows and legs in a chorus of, “He’s mine! No, he’s mine!” After a few minutes of squabbling, one of the Felines ripped the helmet from the leader’s head, but in their struggle to assert power over the group, the helmet was ripped in half, freeing the black butterfly hiding inside. The five girls reverted to normal, the remnants of a torn beanie in their hands.
“Chat Noir, the akuma!” Marinette pointed as it fluttered higher.
“On it! Cataclysm!” He leapt up, catching the butterfly in his grasp and reducing it to a pile of ash.
Marinette approached as he landed, holding up a fist, but Chat Noir glanced around at the shambles of her display.
“Ladybug never showed up. I wonder what kept her,” he said.
“Uhh, maybe she was busy,” Marinette said too quickly, then after a beat added, “I mean, if I had to guess anyway.”
“There won’t be any magic ladybugs to repair all of the damage. I’m sorry, Marinette. I know how hard you worked on everything, and now, it’s all ruined.” His ears drooped.
Marinette glanced around with pursed lips and shrugged. “It’s okay,” she said. “I don’t want my name associated with you forever. It’s better this way.”
“It’s just a shame the people who were supposed to see your work didn’t make it down here before everything happened. This was supposed to be your shot to show the big wigs in the fashion industry what you’re made of,” Alya said.
“I’ll have other opportunities to show off designs I’m really proud of.” Marinette shrugged. “Really, I’m fine.”
Chat Noir searched her expression with a frown. “Don’t you have anything else you can show them today?”
“We do still have all the stuff from your original display in the back. If we hurry, we might be able to clean all of this up before the important peeps make it down here.” Alya suggested.
Chat Noir smiled, turning to his fangirls and crossing his arms over his chest. “If you girls are really my fans like you say you are, then I assume you won’t mind helping me with a little project.”
“Omg, we’ll do anything!” The girls cried.
In a matter of minutes, Marinette’s display had been cleaned up and rid of any traces of Chat Noir merch. Alya wheeled out the racks of Marinette’s original designs, and Chat Noir took one from the rack as his transformation dropped, eyes sparkling behind her makeshift mask. He disappeared behind the curtain and reemerged a few minutes later in a pink pantsuit, garnering squeals of delight from his fangirls. They set the last hat in place as Mme. Lemieux approached with a group of other stylish adults.
“What’s all of this?” she gasped. “I thought you agreed to swap this trite out for the Chat Noir line?”
“Well, I did, but then I decided that if I was going to present something, I wanted to present the designs I’m most proud of,” Marinette said. “Don’t get me wrong, the Chat Noir stuff was fun, but it’s not me, so if you want to know who I am as a designer, this is me.”
Mme. Lemieux exchanged looks with the others in the group, noses wrinkling as they examined her work.
Marinette’s heart hammered in her chest, but she held her head high. She’d rather be rejected for ideas she was proud of than accepted for ones she wasn’t.
“If you’re having doubts about her, let me help you get over them,” Chat Noir spoke up. He placed a hand on her shoulder and smiled. “Marinette is one of the most incredible designers I know. She works insanely hard and is more talented than any other designer here today. This is her moment, not mine, and I’m happy to endorse her brand the way it is.”
Silence stretched on for several beats before one woman in the group said, “You know, I do quite like that jacket.”
“Yes, I was just thinking it would pair nicely with this dress,” another piped up.
Mme. Lemieux shot Marinette a curious glance as the crowd spread out across her display. “Perhaps we can consider a spot for you next year, if you’re interested, Mlle. Dupain-Cheng?”
“I’ll consider it.” Marinette nodded.
Mme. Lemieux flicked her gaze between Marinette, Alya, and Chat Noir, then sauntered off to join the others with a grunt.
“You did it, girl!” Alya nudged Marinette with her elbow.
“I couldn’t have done it without you.” Marinette turned to Chat Noir and smiled. “Both of you. Thank you for all of your help, kitty.”
“I’m glad everything worked out in the end. I promise not to steal the spotlight next time,” he said. “Actually, you should probably just fire me and burn the rest of the Chat Noir stuff.”
“I don’t mind designing things after you, but I was thinking of expanding into a full heroes line on a side blog. What do you think?” Marinette asked.
“That sounds great.” Chat Noir smiled, then more timidly asked, “So, are we still partners, then?”
Marinette held up a fist and bumped it against his.
“Yeah, partners.”

Luka/Cat Noir
58. “I’d die for you. Of course, I’d haunt you in the afterlife but really, it’s the thought that counts.”
My first Luka/Chat! (I think?) Anyways:
----------------
“It’s such a quiet day in Paris.” Luka remarked as he stared at the sky above him. The sun was shining and there were few clouds. The hammock he was in, tied to two trees along the Seine right next to the Liberty, dipped and swung a little as his boyfriend turned to face him. 
“Would you prefer it not be?” Chat Noir asked as he nuzzled the crook beneath Luka’s chin and slid a hand across his chest. “You were the one who said we didn’t get to spend enough time together because I’m always off fighting akumas and being alluringly sexy.”
Luka rolled his eyes but rubbed in between his boyfriend’s ears, enjoying how the cat ears twitched. “I wasn’t saying I wanted something to happen. Just remarking that it was quiet.” Carefully sliding lower in the rocking hammock, Luka moved until he was eye level with Chat. “And you know I’ll take any moment I can to be with you.”
Chat’s face lit up from the inside, as if he swallowed the sun, and he surged upwards to press a heated kiss to the musician’s lips. Unfortunately, this sudden movement caused the hammock to shake and spin violently and the two boys tried to level it out only to end up as a heap on the ground.
Looking from the stunned face of the cat hero to the spinning sky above him, Luka couldn’t stop the laughter that swelled within him and soon Chat was laughing as well. 
Once they were finished, Chat helped Luka off the ground. “Relaxing in the hammock was a nice thought, but I prefer to be on stable ground where I can do this.”
“Wh-”
Luka’s heart sped against his ribcage as Chat kissed him again. A kiss that deepened until they were wrapped in each other’s arms and Luka found himself being pressed against one of the trees that supported the hammock. 
Normally, Luka would worry about them being so affectionate in broad daylight - neither wanted Shadow Moth to find out about their relationship and use it against them - but the feeling of Chat’s body lining up perfectly with his and the vibration of his purring made everything else seem irrelevant…
Until a loud crash broke them apart. 
Shaking the fog from his head, Luka’s eyes widened when he spied the huge purple dinosaur rampaging through Paris. Then his heart sank as he realized what that meant. 
“Guess it’s time to go back to work.” Chat said, a similar hint of sadness in his voice.
Luka didn’t want him to go, but it was all part of dating one of Paris’ main superheroes. “Be safe, okay?”
“Always.” He went to run towards the akuma before pausing and turning back. “You need to get somewhere safe too.”
Luka nodded. “I will. I’d hate for you to be distracted because of me and get hurt.”
Chat’s eyes softened. “I wouldn’t mind getting hurt for you as long as you're safe.”
Luka nodded before grinning. “I know, but then it would be my fault Paris’ alluring Chat Noir got hurt and we can’t have that, can we? I’d hate to get attacked by your legions of fangirls.”
Chat laughed before shooting him a flirty grin. “Of course not, Star, but you’re the only fan that matters to me.”
“Really?”
“Really. I’d even die for you. Of course, I’d haunt you in the afterlife but really, it’s the thought that counts.”
“Mhm, but there’s no one else I’d rather be haunted by.”
The two shared another sweet look before the big purple dinosaur roared again, reminding them of the situation. 
Nodding toward the akuma, Luka smiled. “Go save the day, Chaton. I’ll be here waiting to celebrate your win with you afterwards.”
Chat Noir dashed back to his boyfriend to give him one more kiss. “That’s the best incentive I could ask for.”
Then he was vaulting away on his baton, going to do hero’s work.
Dropping back onto the hammock, Luka could admit he wasn’t upset about the interruption to their quiet day. Honestly, it didn’t matter what kind of day it was: it was always the best when he got to spend time with Chat.

Perfect
It was Chat Noir's night to patrol when he heard music faintly playing.
'Who is up so late at night? Did they leave something on?'
I found a love for me
Oh darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
He had to know where the music was coming from. It was part of who he was: cats and their curiosity. The added singing was like a siren's call to him. It was beautiful.
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
Out of anything, he hadn't expected to find Marinette Dupain-Cheng singing. He thought it was an actress practicing for a part. Maybe a famous artist like Clara Nightingale, but his best friend? He knew she had the tendency to stay up late. She had the fairy lights glowing on her balcony. It made it her look breathtaking.
I will not give you up this time
'Is she still trying to get with that Buttercup guy?'
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes, you're holding mine
Chat Noir gently landed on her roof and listened to her beautiful singing. Marinette stepped away from her balcony and Chat sank lower into his hiding spot.
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Chat smiled as she curtsied to the open air and put her arms up in a position, like was getting ready dancing with someone.
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
A smile was brought to his face as she twirled, enough to see she was actually barefoot.
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
Chat couldn't help, but be entranced by her amazing voice. He opened his mouth to call out to her, but froze as a dark-haired guy opened her hatch.
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
The guy set the drinks down on her table.
'He doesn't remind me of a Buttercup. I wonder why she chose that name.'
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
He extended his hand out to Marinette. With a smile, she took it.
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
The guy slowly brought Marinette against him.
To carry love, to carry children of our own
The guy lowered his hands and placed them on her waist.
We are still kids, but we are so in love
Marinette moved her hands from his chest to around his neck.
Fighting against all odds
Chat watched as the guy continued to sing, but began to move them into a slow dance. Gently swaying in the same spot.
I know we'll be alright this time
He couldn't help, but think about the times he held onto Marinette like that, as they danced. He held up at Chloe's party and in New York.
Darling, just hold my hand
He could only stare at them. Something deep inside told him this was different. This dance wasn't the same as him dancing with his friend, Marinette.
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
He watched as the guy took a hand off her waist and cupped her cheek.
I don't deserve this,
'Damn right you don't deserve her!'
Darling, you look perfect tonight
Marinette nuzzled her cheek into the guy's palm, resting on her face.
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
Chat Noir felt his grip slacken slightly as the boy leaned down to Marinette's height and pressed his forehead to her own. He quickly gripped the tiles as the began to sing together.
I have faith in what I see
Now I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonight
The moment the lyrics ended, Marinette leaned up a pressed her lips to the dark-haired man. Chat Noir could see his grip tighten on Marinette. Chat bit his lip and looked away, before rushing away as quietly as possible.
'This was suppose to be a private moment. I should have left or spoken up.'
Adrien couldn't help as his gaze landed on Marinette and the mysterious guy from the other night. He had seen them kiss, but it still took him by surprise when the guy lifted Mari's hand to his lips.
"I'll see you at lunch, Angel." he spoke.
Mari smiled and leaned up to kiss his cheek, "'til then, Demon."
Adrien didn't have a chance to speak before Marinette strode right pass him. He quickly turned and watched her go up the stairs.
'That smile; I know that smile!'
He had caught himself enough times in his mirror or the reflection of his screen. There was only one person who made him smile like that: Ladybug.
'She's in love with him!'
He gulped and turned to see the dark-haired 'Demon' glaring at him, before walking away.
'An angel and a demon, huh? I hope Marinete knows what she's gotten herself into.'

ANALYSIS OF MIRACULOUS LADYBUG.ORIGINS PART 1 LADYBUG AND CAT NOIR (PART 5, Paris locations are important)
ANALYSIS OF MIRACULOUS LADYBUG. ORIGINS PART 1 LADYBUG AND CHATNOIR (PART 4)
Tumblr media
3 THE STAMPS OF THE MONUMENTS: for this I am going to directly give you a diagram of what monument it is and its color, and then we will analyze it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Well, once I have made the diagram, I want you to notice that all these monuments have something in common, they are places where the most important and determining events occur for our 4 protagonists, so with this set of stamps they are somehow giving us the basis of what the puzzle will be, so as we progress in the analysis of the series we will pay attention to this, also because each monument is representative of said events and characters.
1 EIFFEL TOWER: the first is the Paris tower, notice that it is in pink, so for me this is clear, it represents Marinette and her self-love, and ABOVE ALL HER EVOLUTION, we have to remember two things, 1 the Tower is Marinette's favorite monument, it is the place where she gets inspired and can disconnect from everything, do you remember that?
A comparison was made of Ladybug and the evolution she was going to have, she foretold us that she was going to suffer to strengthen herself and become the best version of herself, since the fact that this is the first monument that appears confirms this to us, but also, number 2 is that it is pink, her most representative color but that also connects with her passion and her dreams, fashion design, so she is telling us that the series itself and the rest will not evolve if she does not She thinks about herself and her dreams, that is when everything will happen, her empowerment as a superhero and her boy, Félix, but also, the Eiffel Tower is the place where the most important events have occurred,
Tumblr media
All these events are a reference to the fact that as Marinette she does not respect or trust herself, she provokes what she provokes, she is knocked down again and again but she endures, it is like the tower is a reminder of what I said above, Until Marinette takes this into account, she will not evolve, (that is, what was said in the opening is confirmed) so every time we see events, akumatizations or this appears on the screen, this will connect with Marinette and her self-love and dreams. , that will be the clue.
(Now this leads me to think that surely and as I predicted the true story begins in season 6, because that is where he begins his university studies and Marinette will test his talent, so if or if the felinette starts again slowly or they will give us the first clues of said ship)
-EIFFEL TOWER: MARINETTE/LADYBUG HER DREAMS, HER SELF-LOVE, HER STRENGTH.
Tumblr media
2 CONCORD SQUARE this monument for me is a representation of Felix and Argos, to begin with what we have is a fountain, with statues and fish, both one and the other are connected with the element of water, water represents emotions, What Miraculous handles this concept? the peacock, so here he is referring to Argos and Felix and their emotions, but also the seal is indigo blue just like his miraculous so the reference is more than obvious.
Tumblr media
Another detail is that the fountain has golden decorations, gold is something that a lot of Chloe usually wears, and what does Chloe represent? , aha to kagami and marinette, so it is a mini spoiler of the ship feligami and felinette.
Tumblr media
Now notice that it is located near the Ferris wheel, this attraction was a victim in the Anansi chapter, and who was the protagonist in that chapter? aha nino, which brings us to wayzz and what he represents, "the protection of marinette", so this would be confirming again that Félix and argos are going to protect and take care of marinette,
Tumblr media
It's more of the same, plus notice that the two seals are close, it's more like it's under Marinette's, as if it were making the support or base,
Tumblr media
holding it, so it's clear, this monument is Felix and Argos.
-CONCORD SQUARE: FELIX AND ARGOS, THEIR EMOTIONS, CARE AND PROTECTION OF MARINETTE.
Tumblr media
3 CHAILLO PALACE (TROCADERO) /ESPLANADE : This is more than a monument, it is more of a location, because it includes the palace, the esplanade and the trocadero garden, for me this area represents ADRIEN and CHATNOIR AND FELIX REPLACING ADRIEN, that is why the black seal appears, the color of the black cat, BUT TO GET TO THAT FIRST WE HAVE TO REMEMBER ONE THING, in the same way that Marinette said that her favorite monument was the Eiffel Tower, other places that she likes is the Trocadero esplanade, since that is the place to make her drawings and get inspired and if you look, when she designs, where does she look?, aha, at the Eiffel tower, so this place and the tower are connected, it's like it somehow serves to remind Marinette that she should have self love right? and this happens because chatnoir and adrien are going to fail him in some way and that event will lead to felix replacing him.
Tumblr media
and that is why she is presented through this label, notice that once again the topic of fashion is included, what she likes the most, exactly what we mentioned when we analyzed where Wayzz slept.
This place plays an important role in the chapter of Mr. pigeon, episode 6 season 1, what is this man characterized by? He helps the pigeons, they are birds, Tikki says: "he looks like a human bird" and this serves as inspiration for Marinette for her hat, who is he? human bird? Argos, so this tells us that in some way, that Argos could somehow be a great companion and that he could take the place of Chatnoir, but this would initially be like Argos, (that is, he and Ladybug would team up several times. times, that's why this seal before this one is his, the one from the source, which represents only him with the peacock miraculous) Argos will be an inspiration for Marinette, he will become someone to admire, and we will be Honestly, Argos is a guy who fights very well and is very intelligent, this could lead Marinette to surpass herself, which would help her evolution, there is nothing better than having a friend with great motivations, who is just as intelligent as you and together be inspired,
Tumblr media
This doesn't happen with chatnoir if you look closely. Another thing to take into account is Adrien's fatal destiny as Hawkmoth, which justifies here why he will stop being chatnoir and that is that in this area, the akumatization of Gigantitan also takes place, if we look at Gigantitan, he has a certain trait with monarch, and therefore, with Adrien,
Tumblr media
Apart from that, IN FUTURE SEASONS, we will see that Adrien is especially nicknamed "bebe" for his behavior, so it is clear, this is chatnoir (Félix)
-Trocadero esplanade: CHAT NOIR (FELIX FATHOM) THE SUBSTITUTION, AND THE RESIGNATION OF ADRIEN AS CHATNOIR.
Tumblr media
Let's leave it here, so it doesn't get too long.
Follow me for more content of this type, like and reblog. Thank you very much and see you in the next post.

Once Marinette was close enough, the person stuck his hand out in a handshake. “Are you the partner my kwami mentioned?” he said. He was dressed in red with black spots, with solid black panels on the sides of his suit. A red-and-black mask stretched across his face, with two red antennae sticking out of his blond hair. He had the greenest eyes Marinette had ever seen. “Yeah, I am,” Marinette told him. “You’re the holder of the Ladybug Miraculous, right?” “That’d be me!” the boy said. “Nice to meet you. I’m, uh–” He thought for a moment. “Crimson Beetle. What’s your name?" “I’m Ma– uh–” Marinette shifted her weight, trying to think of a name, only to lose her balance and nearly topple off the side of the building. “Madly clumsy,” she finished, smiling sheepishly as Crimson Beetle let go of her arm. Nice going, Marinette. “Don’t have a name yet, Clumsy Girl?” he said with a light laugh. “That’s okay.

He’s no longer on the train,” Nathalie finished. “Sir? Are you still there?” Gabriel gaped at the Dog hero– no, at his nephew. “Félix?” he choked out. “The one and only,” Félix replied with an almost menacing smirk.

Y'all I know I haven't talked about the awakening movie but I literally don't know what to say 😭
I've watched it for a while now so I guess I'll try my best (also spoilers obviously)
First of all I do love Lou's voice and as much as I'm kinda upset about Cristina not singing cause she also has a beautiful voice I can't be that petty cause Lou is also very talented.
Another thing is there are obviously big differences between the show characters and the movie characters. (Especially Adrien but imma talk about him later)
Same with the plot line it's obviously different for many reasons.
OMG THE SONGS?!?
I was 3 minutes in and Marinette just busts into a song?!? I DID NOT expect that😭.
Talking about songs WHERE THE HELL WAS "THE WALL BETWEEN US"?!?
How and why?!?
AND that song was supposed to be for both Adrinette and Ladynoir. Where Adrien is in love with both and vice versa but THEY JUST TOOK OUT THAT WHOLE STORYLINE FROM THE MOVIE?!?
I DO NOT think you UNDERSTAND just how GREAT THIS COULD HAVE BEEN!
Also Adrien saying "Marinette is so weird" 🤨 He WOULD NOT day that.
OKAY back to the songs we DID get.
1. Literally in love with the "You are ladybug" loved Tikki and it was really uplifting and motivating I loved it. Also tikki's sarcasm the whole time like "I'm about to kick your butt if you don't start to listen" 😑 to Marinette trying to convince Tikki she isn't cut out to be ladybug 😭.
2. STRONGER TOGETHER!!! I AM IN LOVE! ITS LITERALLY ALL THEIR FEELING PUT INTO ONE SONG!
"You saved the world every day with your mask but the girl behind it saved my heart"
AHHHHHHH!!! Omg my sweet cinnamon boy
"What is this feeling now? I cannot fall for him"
DO YOU SEE?!? Literally all their feelings out into one song INCLUDING their feelings in the show throughout all the seasona
3. "MY LADY" !! cat noir's song! OH MY SWEET SUNSHINE BOY ✨
"It's been a while since I smiled and meant it" !!!😭😭😭
Every lyric in this song brings me back to season 1- 3 chat noir! Oh I love it so much.
I guess I do have a lot to say huh? Mostly about the songs but I'll make a whole different post about all of them because I don't think Y'ALL UNDERSTAND THE DEPTH OF THESE SONGS.
My next point isn't that big of a deal but I would have LOVED to see a scene with every ship dynamic in the movie. Like a small scene with Marichat, and another one with Ladrien. I was just WAITING to see a small clip of each of the ships of the love square.
Great animation but that was expected especially with how long we waited.
Another thing is with how this ended. I know the whole storyline was different with how it was Marinette's first day to many other things which makes sense because it was Zag's work and also because obviously they could just make half the movie the same as the origins.
With how it ended I am a little sceptical about the next film which is said to be released in 2026 (none of us believe it) but with how it ended I think we'll see a dynamic we've never actually seen in the show.
Meaning that them knowing each other's identities and being in love and then fighting a new villian. This is a dynamic we haven't seen in the show - other than clips of it during episodes where their memories were erased. And I am really excited for that.
Also I feel like since they made Gabriel a good guy I do think they'll make Natalie truly evil. WHICH I CANNOT STAND TO SEE. Do I really hope that's not the case.
ALSO speaking of Gabriel the god damn difference between how he treated Adrien when he found out he was chat noir in the movie vs the show will never not be funny to me 😭.
I think THIS was the difference between the Gabriel who just wanted his wife and the mother of his child back vs the Gabriel who got too obsessed with getting the miraculous and didn't actually care about his son.
That's all (for now) thanks for coming to my ted talk. I really thought I didn't have much to say but it turns out I did.
I'll post about all the songs in the movie later

Okay. I've put it off too long for the people that actually care. After the cut is Cat Walker's POV.
Oh and FYI, there is one other story I regretted not writing. Where Faybon goes off at Marc and Nathaniel over their comic. It was in response to a story I can't remember the name of where they killed off Chat Noir in the comic and seriously upset Marinette. Needless to say, as I was still in my salt mood, it pissed me right off.
Anyway, on to the story.
Adrien had no idea why he was doing this. He'd told Ladybug he would give the ring back to Chat Noir after dropping the latest Akuma victim off at his home, it was nice to know she wanted him back but he couldn't help but think how much tonight had proved his point. Cat Walker had only been a distraction and Ladybug had been more than capable of taking care of everything, even without the rest of the team. Maybe that's why he had ended up coming this way.
"Hello? Cat Walker? You still there?"
Adrien shook his head to rid himself of his thoughts. Right, Faybon had asked what Plagg had said. Clearing his throat and composing himself, he began to speak as politely as he could. "He mentioned how you were often a great source of comfort to Chat Noir when it came to his hero duties and his civilian life. I was hoping you might deign to give me your opinion before I hand back the ring." There, that sounded good right? It was the truth after all.
Then Faybon scoffed and Cat Walker had to readjust his form to hide his shock and hurt. He needn't have bothered though, Faybon had yet to open his eyes. "Yeah I'm a great source of comfort alright." He muttered, disdain clear in his voice. "That's why he saw fit to renounce the miraculous in the first place without so much as a warning. Only for you to get it, Mr. Perfect."
Now Adrien was getting very uncomfortable, he was beginning to realise how bad an idea this actually was. Still, he had to stick to the script in case Ladybug asked any questions. "All I know is that I was the other choice, besides I'd hardly call myself perfect, all I did was get in the way." He gave a small shrug only to be completely ignored as the other boy still hadn't opened his eyes.
Just when he was considering leaving Faybon spoke up again. "So, what did you want my opinion on? For Plagg to recommend talking to me it must be something big." Still no eye contact, he'd have to come back as Chat Noir and apologise if he'd upset him this much.
"I was wondering what you thought about the increase in heroes and Chat Noir's place in it all." He started slowly trying his best to word this as vaguely as possible. "Seeing as I completely failed in the task tonight it's quite obvious that it's more than just the miraculous that's important." Another scoff was the reply.
"Man I was right to hate you." Faybon said with a shake of his head. He opened his eyes briefly to shoot a glare Adrien's way before closing them and settling back down onto the tiles. "If you really thought that it was just the miraculous that was important then you clearly don't think too much of Ladybug." Before he could argue Faybon spoke over him. "After all, the only reason she still holds the earrings is because she has the experience with them. If Chat Noir had given his ring up earlier? She'd have given the earrings up as well."
Not knowing what to say to that Cat Walker sat down, being sure to give Faybon more than enough room. "I can see how you might get that impression." He started after a while. "And the other heroes?" Maybe it was best to move on from the topic for now.
"Are both a necessity and a hindrance." That was not the response he was expecting. "Do you know who any of them are in their civilian life?" Faybon asked instead.
Adrien froze, now very thankful that his friend has barely looked at him, sure he knew some of them from the Miracle Queen incident but he couldn't tell Faybon that. "Of course not. I only just got Plagg today." He said instead, hoping his shock would be interpreted as a result of the question and not because of the lie.
"ShadowMoth does." Faybon carried on, again not paying much attention to what Car Walker was saying. "Yet Ladybug keeps giving them back despite how big a risk it is." He opened his eyes again and turned the glare back on the "replacement" black cat. "Do you know why she does it? Why, despite having been involved in 90% of the akumas that required a new hero, I was never chosen?"
Adrien could only shake his head in response, was this why Faybon was upset? Because he'd never been given a miraculous? Or was it because he thought he was the next best choice for Plagg? He did have more experience with the baton then anyone else besides Cat Noir himself. It made sense. "I only just became a holder, I don't know how things work." Truthfully he wasn't sure he knew how ladybug worked recently either.
"Because it's easier that way." Came the stiff response from his friend, who still hadn't opened his eyes. "Being the guardian, looking after the kwamis, figuring out the grimoire, plus an even greater reason to recover the peacock and butterfly Miraculous? Her stress is through the roof. Then you have the duties as Ladybug and having to keep it a secret while dealing with her civilian problems." Faybon shook his head and let out a weary sigh. "She gives them back the Miraculous because it's easier than trying to find new holders, wait for them to figure out their powers and hope they'll give them back without a fuss." Opening his eyes he glared at Cat Walker again. "And then you had to go and make it ten times worse by putting on that stupid mask."
He couldn't argue with that point, he had seen how put off Ladybug had been simply by his being there, desperately trying to include him so he wouldn't leave like Chat Noir did. "And what about you?" He decided to ask instead. Faybon hadn't mentioned the reasoning behind him not getting a miraculous.
This time the other teen actually laughed, though it was lacking most of the humour Adrien had associated with his friend. "Because I'm yet another source of stress she needs to deal with." He muttered derisively. "If she spent any more time around me than she already does she's scared I'll figure out her identity." Faybon gave another sad sounding chuckle. "I offered her the chance to avoid that, to not talk to me at all, but with what I know already and my emotional state being what it is, she keeps stopping by from time to time to make sure I'm not considering an akumatisation as the answer to my problems."
This was something Adrien had never heard before, from Faybon or his lady. Even outside the mask the other boy had never even hinted that something was bothering him. Definitely not to the point where Ladybug felt the need to check up on him. Was he really that bad a friend to miss something like this? Unfortunately, Cat Walker had no reason to say what he wanted to, so he could only backtrack on their conversation. "Well, you have my word that I'll never wear this mask again. Chat Noir will return to being the only holder from now on."
"Then why not take it off now?" The question stunned him. Sure Faybon had been around when he'd detransformed before, he'd wanted to talk to Plagg and had gone out of his way to make sure he couldn't see anything when Chat Noir had said the phrase, but this was beyond that. He was asking him to reveal his identity, to ensure that he never wore the miraculous again. If he did that then surely Faybon would get suspicious when he ran out during akumas?
And yet... If he did it, maybe his friend would feel better about opening up to him? Knowing that they shared at least some secrets in regards to the Miraculous. Before he could second guess himself, he said it. "Claws in." Just like that he was sitting on the hard tiles exposed to the cold night air as the magic washed over him.
"You kid, are an idiot." Plagg wasted no time in telling him what he thought of this stunt but Adrien only wanted to know what Faybon's reaction was. Turning to look at the one who had asked him to remove the mask he was shocked to see that his friend hadn't opened his eyes at all. Instead he'd just pulled his regular snack box out of his pocket and set it down between the two of them, nudging it closer towards Adrien when he didn't do anything.
Feeling even more confused now, the exposed super hero picked up the box and slowly opened it. Inside was some cheese for the gluttonous kwami and a cupcake, presumably for himself. "Faybon?" Adrien spoke the name softly into the night air as he picked up the treat, Plagg had wasted no time diving for the cheese.
What was going on here? Did he already know his identity? Adrien couldn't recall ever telling Faybon about wanting cupcakes before, in fact the only time he'd ever mentioned the treat was on one of their previous rooftop talks but that would mean... "I already have one friend who is forced to put on a mask of perfection in his day to day life." The other teen seemed to confirm his thoughts as he spoke. "Did you honestly think I wouldn't know when another did the same thing?"
There really was no point arguing. At least now he knew why Faybon wanted the mask off so badly, and why he still refused to look. "How'd you know?" Adrien asked as he bit into the gift he'd been given, strawberry wasn't his first choice but it's not like he'd ever mentioned his favourite flavour before. He also didn't feel the need to worry about his friend recognising his voice, after all it had never been an issue before.
"I've spoken to the previous guardian remember?" Was the clever teen's answer. "And, while it may have been briefer than the time I've spoken to Plagg, both conversations were enough to tell me one simple thing." Pausing, Faybon seemed to wait for either Adrien or Plagg to say something, or maybe just finish eating. When nothing happened he continued. "You are the only holder either of those two would have ever picked." He gave a shrug and almost seemed to relax a bit. "Besides, your costume and manner may be different, but you still showed way to much experience using the miraculous. Not to mention you bow the same way."
"I see." He wasn't sure what to say in response to that. He knew Faybon was observant but this had the potential to be worrisome. At least it was only the familiarity with the Miraculous that clued him in, the young model would just have to ensure he never bowed in front of his friend and he should be fine. It was a good thing he'd made those actions over the top on purpose. That did lead to some uncomfortable realisations though. "Do you really hate me?" He asked after a moment, feeling thankful that his kwami had disappeared to eat his cheese in peace.
Faybon just let out another sigh. "After you left the ring behind LB came to me, desperate for me to get the ring back to you." Adrien felt like a dagger was plunged into his heart at the pain in Faybon's voice as the other recalled what happened. "I told her that this must have wanted nothing to do with the Miraculous anymore." Faybon took another deep breath and kept talking. "I couldn't tell her how being Chat Noir meant everything to you, that it was your favourite thing, the freedom, the responsibility, her." He shook his head and kept going. "She was so close to breaking already, if I'd told her that one overstressed moment from her had caused you to abandon something you loved so much? ShadowMoth would have won."
Adrien thought he couldn't feel any worse, but his friend wasn't done yet. "Then you show up as Cat Walker, all prim and proper, trying to be everything LB seemingly wanted in a partner. Trying to be Mr Perfect, shutting down all your feelings just so you could be near her." The anger was returning to Faybon's voice and it was clearly a struggle for him to keep his voice low. "Tell me Chaton. What the hell is the point of having so many masks if you can't be yourself under any of them?"
Despite it being a question Adrien knew he shouldn't answer. Faybon was right, being Chat Noir was the only way he could relax sometimes. He had so many masks, so many secrets, so many facets of his life he kept compartmentalized so that he wasn't overwhelmed. He had to follow a strict routine at home and while modelling, with his friends he had to be careful that nothing negative got back to his father, and even when he was Chat casually he couldn't relax lest he let something slip that Shadow Moth could use against him. Cat Walker was just another mask he had to wear, this one for the benefit of Plagg and Ladybug. "Plagg claws on."
There was a brief cry of dismay as the kwami was pulled into the ring and the transformation took place. Only once the magic had faded did Faybon open his eyes to see that it was Chat Noir there and not Cat Walker. If he approved of the change he didn't say anything. Chat left shortly afterwards, the conversation stalled and awkward after it had hit a little too close to both of them. Adrien may have gone there to figure out where he stood with Ladybug, which was answered by what Faybon revealed, but he had learned one other thing as well. He wasn't the only one with multiple masks, he just had to hope that at least one of them allowed his friend to feel as free as being Chat Noir did.

Kick the cat out of the bag!
Tumblr media
Warning: If you like Adrien Agreste/Chat Noir you should turn back because I'm salty at this boy and the creators of this show and I won't hold back.
If you feel the same, enjoy with me this trip down the salty road.

Chapter 2: What should you do?
It was night in Paris. You were laying in your bed and staring at your wall. After a few moments, you turned to look at the clock on your bedside table.
3 a.m.
You really should sleep, tomorrow was a school day, but you just couldn't.
It happened so much today.
After the Miraculous Cure swept around Paris and turned anything back to normal, for a long time you kept holding your parents in your arms. They hugged you back just as strong.
Neither wanted to be apart from the other.
So for a few hours, you forgot all about the Adrien Agreste/Chat Noir situation and just were happy to have your parents back.
But now anything was calm and you could think again.
You needed, no, you have to take down Chat Noir. It couldn't go on like that.
But could you really do it?
Would the photos and the video you did be enough?
Should you give them to the news station?
You wrinkle your nose. No, this was not a good idea.
You remembered how Nadja Chamack did her interview with Ladybug and Chat Noir. How she wanted Ladybug to admit that she and Chat Noir were dating, how Chat Noir said maybe someday, and then the kiss that was shown without the permission of the heroes. Well, Chat Noir surely liked it, but Ladybug was offended.
Cleary they would spin it into some LadyNoir bullshit.
You couldn't believe that you haven't seen before how sick it was to ship real people together. You feel ashamed of yourself. Ladybug could have a boy or a girlfriend in her civilian life or didn't want to date at all, but Paris citizens seemed more interested in shipping real people than them finally defending Papillion and ending his terror.
You signed and got out of your bed.
You needed advice, another look into this situation, it was too delicate to handle.
So you took your phone and tipped a message to the only person who could help in your guy's Whatsapp Chat.
Husband <3
Luka, are you awake?
Luka, I know it's late, but I need to talk.
Luka Couffaine!
I won't stop till you answer me!
I won't stop till you answer me!
I'm awake, I'm awake, what's the matter [Y/N]? Your messaging nearly woke up Jules. You know she needs her sleep.
Ups, I'm sorry. Do you think we can meet at the Liberty? I need your advice, I'm going crazy here.
Is everything okay with you? You are worrying me here. That's not you coming over so late at night just for some advice. What happened today?
Besides that, my parents died before my eyes? Luka, really, I need to talk in person with you.
I will be waiting for you then. Be careful on your way over.
Always, see you in a few minutes!
With that, you shut down your phone and searched for your favorite hoodie to put over your night clothes. Like a ninja, you left your home and made your way to the Seine where the Liberty was currently docked.
The nightlife was high up in Paris. You heard singing, screaming and shouting, and loud laughter. You felt some people, manly men, staring at your form and started to walk faster.
A young girl at night all alone had to be wary. Anything could happen.
Thank god, you were nearly there.
You could see Luka standing with crossed arms and a worried look in his pretty blue eyes beside the gangplank.
"Hey.", you called out softly. "Hey to you too.", he answered just as softly.
Luka was wearing his PJs and his favorite jacket. From his messy hair, you could tell he had slept deep before you woke him up.
You felt bad.
Maybe that was not a good idea?
Before you could do anything, Luka opened his arms for you.
"C'mere, I can sense that you need a good hug."
Well, you weren't one to say no to a patented Luka-Couffaine-Hug and snuggled up to your best friend in the whole wide world.
You both were nearly the same height, Luka had only a few centimeters above you, but you could hug easily and comfortably.
You let out a shuddering breath, which you didn't even know you were holding and Luka started to hum a small melody. Clearly, he wanted you to relax.
It started to help and after a few moments you patted is back.
"I'm okay enough.", you told him.
"You sure, Harmony?"
You smiled wide hearing Luka's nickname for you. It gave you comfort. He had given you this because he said he never had heard a more harmonic song in a person's heart than yours. You felt honored.
"Yeah, I'm sure.", you insured him. "Don't worry."
Luka just looked at you for a few seconds, you bet anything he was listening to your heart's song to be sure, and nodded then.
He took your hand and lead you two to two chairs on the deck. You sat down facing each other.
"So, what has you driving you crazy [Y/N]?", he asked worriedly.
You signed. Not time like the present.
You took your phone out and searched for the video you made.
"It's better I show you.", you explained. You gave Luka your phone. "Watch the video, please."
He did as you asked, even if he seemed confused at first, but then you could see how big his eyes got. Then how he frowned and then how his eyes got an angry glimmer.
You watched him in silence. Luka when angry was a sight to be seen, it did take a lot to make him lose his nerves. Seeing how he reacted to the video like this made you feel valid in your own feelings.
"What a piece of shit!", Luka cursed, after finishing the video.
You nodded. "You tell me."
Luka looked up from the phone, and yep, he was really pissed.
"Ma and I took as many people as we could on the Liberty to save them from the waves, cause that's what you do when someone needs help and...and...Chat Noir was just mopping around?! He is a superhero it is his duty to help us. He could, but he didn't! What is wrong with him?"
"I haven't the faintest idea, Luka, believe me. I just wish I could punch his stupid face.", you answered him.
"I will hold him down for you.", he growled.
"Thank you, but there is more."
"Worser then this?!"
So you started to tell him how you were now pretty sure that Chat Noir sexually harassed Ladybug, how he never took his job seriously and how the whole city cared more to ship two people than them defending Papillion.
After that Luka stayed still for a long while. You wanted to ask if he was okay, but he put a hand up, meaning he needed time to process all of this. You stayed silent and watched how he started to meditate to surely get his emotion and thoughts under control.
You keep an eye out for any Akuma that could possibly be on his way.
But it seemed Papillion had enough for today or was in bed since no Akuma came for Luka.
Good.
"Harmony.", called you Luka.
Seems like he was done with his meditation. You turned back to him. Luka had pensive look on his face.
“I just don’t get it.”, he started, biting his lip nervously. “I meet Ladybug and Chat Noir, I have heard their heart songs…but nothing seemed wrong. Why did I not see all of this?”
“It’s like someone took a blindfold off you, right? Or in your case, earplugs.”, you said half earnestly, half joking.
Luka ignored your weak attempt to joke and shoved his hair from his forehead frustrated.
“Yes, it’s just like that. Shit, Harmony, what is going on? This can’t be normal.”
“You mean, it could be Miraculous related?”, you asked wondering.
It would explain why nobody else had said a thing. If a Miraculous was in use in Adrien/Chat’s favor, then it would be hard to take away his hero status. You would have to need first to get rid of it.
He shrugged his shoulders.
“Maybe…or the universe play’s favorite and it took a strange liking to Chat Noir.”
Strangely you imagined the universe as a white-straight guy in his forty’s with a beard.
You shudder.
You had a feeling someone like this would block anyone on Twitter who wasn’t agreeing with him over some fictional character and demand that it should be worshipped because it was perfect and didn’t need to change!
You would have nightmares later, that was sure!
“God, I hope not.”, you answered Luka.
“So, what are we doing now?"
"You will help me?", you asked smiling.
You already had a feeling that he would, but hearing it was nice. Luka smiled back and nodded.
“You will need all the help to get Chat Noir to quit.”
"Right, so okay, that's what I thought.", you started. "We can't give this to a news station because I don't trust them to not turn this into some LadyNoir Bullshit. Remember the interview Nadja Chamack did?"
"Yeah, you are right, we better avoid this. We have to do this."
"But what could we do?", you asked frustrated. "Running around Paris and showing any person we meet the video?"
"Harmony, [Y/N], I think the solution is pretty simple. We do live in a technologically advanced society.", reminds you Luka with a little grin.
"Technologically advanced society...", you parroted thoughtfully.
What could he mean?
Then it hit you! The Ladyblog! Paris number one source for anything Ladybug and Chat Noir related.
"A blog, we are going to start a blog! With the sole goal to reawoke Chat Noir right as a hero and him handing over his ring to Ladybug!", you shouted happily and jumped up.
Luka shushed you and reminded you that his mother and sister were still sleeping. You said sorry.
"So, how are we going to call this blog?", asked Luka curiously.
You grinned mischievously.
Like the cat who got the cream.
"The Kickat-Blog!"
