two virgin losers

kittykittymeowmeow: My superhero partner (23F) recently asked me (23M) to take her virginity. I’m guessing she thought I was some type of sex god whore, but I’m actually also a huge virgin. For some reason, my lack of sexual prowess made her double down on her decision? She got kind of excited for us to platonically lose our virginities to each other and that made me panic. I mayyyy have told her I don’t want to be deflowered by another virgin, just in case she sucks at sex and I wind up hating it. The truth is, I think she’d be great at sex (she also thinks this). I think she’s amazing at everything she tries. I’ve also fallen in love with her multiple times and I will almost definitely get obsessed with her again if I sleep with her. Unfortunately, even though she’s really mad at me right now, I want her so bad I think I might die. Um… AITA?

Close Your Eyes [Remix]

Remixed from @jennagrinsoverml's fic Close Your Eyes (E). I had to go the extra bit to double the smut because I wanted to make some pussy eating jokes.

Thank you @ccboomer for beta reading and @mlsquaredance for organizing! I had so much fun with this remix in particular.

They’d begun with kisses and worked their way up from that, but Ladybug was getting tired of being backed against brick walls and plaster chimneys. If she was going to rut against Chat’s thigh and smash his face against hers, she wanted to be smashed against something with a little bit of give.

“I know a spot,” she’d said.

He’d quirked an eyebrow, but he’d followed.

She led him onto her very own rooftop balcony. As she draped herself over the patio chair that she so often sat in to sketch, he asked in a wary whisper, “Isn’t this Marinette Dupain-Cheng’s balcony?”

Her heart pounded in her chest, but she kept her face cool and even tried for an alluring smirk. “It’ll be fine,” she promised him. “You can pull the table over the trapdoor if you’re worried.”

He rocked back on his heels, still clinging to the railing, like it was a threshold he wasn’t ready to cross. But his hesitation was brief, dulled to nothing by the longing stretched out between them.

He tugged her small, round table over the trapdoor to ensure that they wouldn’t be interrupted, though she knew for a fact no one was going to come for them. Her parents were visiting family, and her bedroom would remain unoccupied, at least until this was done.

No sooner had the base of the table crossed over the hinges of the trapdoor than had Ladybug pulled her Chat back into her. They tumbled onto the hammock-like seat in a tangle of limbs. She hardly noticed the way his legs dug into her side and his hands scrambled for purchase as she settled beneath him, focused on nothing but drawing his taste onto her tongue like he was her first sip of sweet wine.

He found his place eventually, lips locked with hers, hands gripped onto the frame of the chair over her head, and legs draped over either side of her, forcing their hips flush. Her hands slid down his back, finding and squeezing the base of him, drawing him against her. He moaned into her mouth as she inhaled sharply and suddenly his lips were gone—not gone, just drifting down her cheek, her neck—his breath was hot against her skin where her hair and suit left just enough room for his lips to press and his breath to burn warm and heady.

“Chat,” she whispered, breathless. The overhang provided a semblance of privacy, but she didn’t dare be loud.

“I want to touch you,” he murmured into her neck.

“You are touching me, you silly kitty,” she said. “I wish you were kissing me.”

“I want to touch you properly.” His whisper turned into a whine, keening into the space behind her ear as she rolled her hips up against his in an effort to bring him back to her.

“There’s nothing proper about this.”

His hands slid down to her hips, pressing them into the pale pink-striped canvas and his lips pulled away. His green eyes were serious as he looked down at her, and she wondered what on earth he was thinking.

“My lady,” he said, voice painfully serious, “I would like to engage in some cannibalism this evening.”

It took a moment to strike her, but when it did, she burst into a loud, brief laugh, entirely out of her control. She pressed her wrist into her mouth to stifle her laughter, and when she finally had control of her breath again, she managed, “You are ridiculous.”

“That’s not the word to describe me.” He pouted, but she smirked.

“And what’s the word to describe you?”

“Horny out of my fucking mind.”

She could tell. She tried again to push up against him, but his hands were firm. “That was six words,” she said, hoping to score at least one victory point.

And it seemed like she’d won. He collapsed back against her. His hands trailed loosely up her sides, against her arms, drawing her hands up and over her head. She leaned up for a kiss, but he turned his head at the last moment, and she only caught the corner of his mouth. His lips found her neck once more and he breathed, “Please, my lady.”

And oh mon dieu, how could she ignore a plea like that?

“On one condition,” she said.

“Anything.”

She reconsidered. “Two conditions.”

“Of course.”

“You wear a blindfold.”

“Kinky,” and his breath seemed to travel down her spine in a course of sparks and shivers. “What’s the second condition?”

“You let me return the favor.”

He went very still. She could no longer feel his breath on her neck and for a moment she wondered if she’d fully stopped his heart and her Chat was no more.

Then, in the most breathless whisper, so quiet she could hardly make it out, “You don’t owe me anything—”

“I want to.” She used his stillness to slip her wrist out of his grip; she slid her fingers up through his hair and pressed her lips against his ear. “If you’re going to eat pussy tonight, I want a taste, too.”

His laughter was buried in her neck, but she felt it reverberate through her bones, and a grin split her face. It was rare that she could turn the tables on him when it came to jokes, so she relished the moments when it worked in her favor.

“I suppose it’s only fair,” he finally said.

The trouble, they found, as they often did in their rooftop and back alley makeout moments, was logistics. The lounge chair Ladybug had led them to worked wonderfully for stretching out and kissing lazily. It was poorly suited for arranging lips to lower lips.

His hands found her hips once again and this time he picked her up off of the chair and dropped her onto the table.

“Oh—” she gasped as she he knelt between her knees and looked up at her with his eager, mischievous green eyes. There was no trace of hesitation in them and she could not help but wonder if he’d done something like this before.

He unfastened his lengthy, tail-like belt and handed it to her. She bit down on her lip, but took it reverently, as if it were his very soul bared to her.

It had taken her a long time to recognize her Chat’s sincerity. He joked so often and about so much that she had not realized that the way he loved the world was the same as the way he loved her, and that he loved her as if she were his world.

It had taken her a long time to realize that he was her world, too.

“You’re sure about this?” she asked, as if he was the one who was uncertain. She trailed a hand through his hair, gloved fingertips grazing against the base of his leather cat ears and he leaned up into her touch.

He pressed his mouth to her thigh and murmured, “More sure than I’ve ever been about anything.”

She swallowed. Then with more care and grace than she had ever taken with anything, she fastened his belt over his eyes. Once she was sure it was snug, she whispered, “Spots off.”

His hands found the fastener of her pants so quickly that she had a flash of panic that he could still see her, but she reminded herself that her Chat would never betray her trust that way.

He tugged on the waistband of her pants, and she threw her weight back on her hands to give him leverage. She kicked off her shoes, and he pulled her pants over her ankles and down to the floor. She pressed up on her hands again so he could tug off the last barrier between him and his goal, but he didn’t take it. Instead, the soft leather pads of his gloves slid along her thigh and up to the elastic edge. He pressed his nose up against her and took in a long breath, then let it out just as slow.

She shivered and her abs and arms trembled as she held perfectly still. Then he pulled, and she was bare.

His lips pressed again into her thigh and he nipped gently at the sensitive flesh. She bit back a yelp tangled in a moan. His lips curved into a smirk against her skin and he moved closer, only to nip again.

He was such a tease.

But before she could complain, his hand splayed across her hip and his thumb angled down, pressing into her clit. He was careful with the claw-like tips of his gloves and she wondered if the tips of his gloves were the very reason he had decided to be intimate with his tongue instead of trying something simpler first.

She sucked in a breath through her teeth as his thumb rubbed against her clit. Her head tipped back and her gaze flooded with stars. They twinkled overhead, winking at her wonton display. Then they disappeared as her eyes went wide and her vision faded into stars of her own. His tongue slipped between her like a needy kiss and she fell back onto her elbows. She no longer saw what was above her, but instead her mind was turned toward him, toward his warm breath against her skin, the faint scrape of claws against the back of her thigh, and the pads of leather pressing into her muscles.

She bit down on another moan as his tongue slipped up to take the place of his thumb. He was so careful with his teeth and claws now, nothing but soft and pliant, and in turn, she went soft and pliant beneath him.

He sucked gently as she drew breath, and as she exhaled his tongue turned flat against her. The rhythm of it was uneven, yet they kept pace with each other. She was unsure if she followed him or he took his cues from her, but they moved as one, ramping up as her breaths quickened.

And then he pulled away and the chill of the evening took his place. But before she could even whine a complaint, his knuckles dragged against her slit and she fell back fully, splayed out on the table and gasping. Her hands groped for purchase and as if he sensed her need, one of his hands slid into hers, fingers between fingers, palm to palm, and she gripped him as if she were falling and he was the ledge that would keep her from dying.

She pushed up into his hand at her waist, tight and taut and holding onto the ecstasy of his smooth leather knuckles against her swelling folds for as long as she could until it swept out of her like the ebbing tide. Her grip relaxed, but his hand did not slow. His knuckles still dragged across her, pressing, massaging, and she twisted beneath him with a moan.

“Chaton,” she murmured, voice uneven and breathless. “Chaton, please.”

He granted her a brief reprieve, withdrawing his hand only to plant another kiss. She whined and tipped her head back and hips up. Her vision spun with vertigo and she bit back the instinct to call for Tikki, to save herself from falling by transforming into Ladybug. She had no need for heroics here. She was in safe hands. She trusted these hands.

But she was going to lose herself if he didn’t give her a break.

She reached forward, sliding her hand along his scalp and down to the nape of his neck. She tugged gently and he obediently fell away. She followed, sitting up once more. She stroked his hair as he leaned his cheek against her thigh. She could not see his eyes, but his lips glistened in the moonlight.

She wanted so badly to peel back the makeshift blindfold. She wanted so badly to see him, to let him see her properly.

But there was nothing proper about this.

She trailed her hand down from his hair to his cheek and brushed her finger along his lips.

“May I return the favor?” she whispered.

For an answer, he took her hand and kissed her fingertips. He pressed his kisses along her wrist, the inside of her forearm, up until he hit the cuff of her jacket. Though she couldn’t see his eyes, his ears seemed to go flat with disappointment as he reached the end of her bare skin.

She pulled him up onto his feet and into a kiss. She moaned as the familiar taste of him melted into the new taste of her own musk that still lingered on his tongue. His hands pressed into her hips, pulling her up against him and her breath hitched as his leather-clad thigh slipped between her legs. She rolled her body against his as she had done so many times in her suit, but bare and exposed like this was a fully new thing. She felt her face grow hot and heat flush into her shoulders and pool in her gut. She was glad for his blindfold. He could not see how properly embarrassed she was even as she rolled her hips into him.

And even though she was supposed to be returning the favor that he had granted her, he seemed more interested in letting her chase a second high against his body as he pulled her tighter against him. His lips again moved past hers, this time to her ear where he nipped gently and another chill went through her body.

“Mon minou?” she murmured into his ear.

He hummed and it was like her entire body reverberated in time with his tune.

“Are you stalling?”

And he went very still, the way he had when she had first suggested they make this an exchange. She recalled his delicate refusal and pulled away from him to get a better look at his face, but his gaze was still hidden from her. She pressed her palm to his cheek and thumbed gently at the leather restraint.

“Chaton, you can tell me no.”

He turned into her palm, pressing another kiss into her skin and this time she waited it out, waited for him to say what was on his mind.

“I don’t want to tell you no,” he finally murmured.

Her heart surged and it took all of her self-control to stay still, to wait for him to finish, for him to name whatever it was that was still holding him back.

“I’m just… nervous,” he finally admitted.

She supposed she shouldn’t be surprised. Her Chat would give and give, but she knew how hard it was for him to accept something for himself.

“I was nervous,” she said, “but you took care of me. I’d do no less for you.”

“Ladybug is never nervous.”

“Oh, Chaton, I’m nervous all the time.”

He leaned in and kissed her again, long and slow, then he pulled away to murmur, “You should dress before you turn back.”

Her heart ached to lose contact with him, for however brief, but he was right. Even the possibility that he might recognize Marinette’s shoes was too much to risk.

She pulled her pants back on and slid her feet into her ballet flats before whispering, “Tikki, spots on.” As the flash of light faded, he yanked his belt down to his neck.

His eyes were so bright in contrast with the dark night and the dark leather looped around his throat. She surged in for another kiss and he stumbled back. He fell against the balcony railing, back bowing in a fine curve as he sank into her arms. She recognized the trust he was giving her, but she still waited for him to confirm.

“You’re sure about this?” she asked again.

“I am,” he whispered into her mouth.

Though she was reluctant to do so, she stepped away from him again and called on her Lucky Charm. She expected a scarf or a blindfold to fall into her hands so that she could do as she wanted and take all of him without his mask or leather between them.

Instead, what she got was a square foil packet, no bigger than the palm of her hand.

“Oh, for fuck’s sake,” she sighed.

A smile tugged on his lips. “Tikki approves, at least?” he said.

“Yes, but how are you going to detransform now?”

“The better question is how am I not going to? It seems like I have full permission from the universe to bare all my most delicate parts to you.”

“Chat—”

His hands closed around hers and he pressed his lips to the corner of her mouth. “Just close your eyes, my lady. I trust you.”

She pursed her lips, but sank down to her knees. She looked up at him, taking one last moment to memorize the wary smile on his lips, the messy, chaotic swoops of his golden hair, and the way his eyes glinted with anticipation and masked mischief.

Then she closed her eyes and leaned against him. The smooth, cool leather of his thigh against her cheek vanished in a flash of light, brilliant even behind her closed eyes, and it was replaced by rough denim. She fumbled for the button of his jeans and tried to will her embarrassment to return to the pit of her stomach. Everything he had done to her had felt deliberate; she felt like she was a teenager again, fumbling in a dark closet and not truly knowing anything about what she was supposed to do.

But she wasn’t a teenager anymore. She had some ideas, even if she’d never actually done this before.

She found the bulge in his pants rather easily, once she started looking. She supposed she couldn’t blame him. He’d been buried nose-deep into her for so long, it was a wonder he hadn’t come already.

With an attempt at the same delicacy he had shown her, she tugged open his jeans and slid her hands beneath the waistband of his briefs. It took every ounce of willpower she had not to open her eyes for a glimpse. She just imagined that they were as black as his suit and pulled them down, freeing his cock.

It bumped against her cheek, but she ignored it. Instead, she pressed her lips against his hip and felt the firm, unyielding line of his pelvis. She would commit a litany of crimes if it meant she could see how those lines drew into a V at his waist. Longingly, she trailed one hand up his stomach, beneath the cotton of his T-shirt, and gauged the shape of his abdomen. The leather bodysuit left nothing to the imagination, true, but there was still so much she hadn’t yet considered. She wished desperately to touch him with her own bare hands, and she felt guilty that she’d hesitated at all when he’d suggested they try this. Now she couldn’t believe they had waited this long.

His breath hitched as she reached his pecs and her fingertips grazed his nipple.

He reached for her wrist and gently guided her hand back down to his groin. She was reluctant to follow his lead, but there would be times other than this. There would be time to explore each other fully later, someday, when they were free to do everything without masks or blindfolds.

She wrapped her hand around his member and rolled her wrist as she moved from tip to base and back. He moaned under her touch, so she repeated the movement. Again, she wished her hands could be bare, but she contented herself with what they had, and what they had was one lucky condom.

She unwrapped the foil and carefully unrolled the rubber over his dick with the same twisting thrusts. This, she knew how to do. Someday she’d have to thank Alya for that one sleepover they’d spent putting condoms on bananas for practice and arguing about how it could possibly be sexy.

Finally, she put her mouth over his head. She wasn’t entirely sure how to mimic the twists of her hand that had seemed to work so well, but she hollowed her cheeks and pressed her tongue to the underside of his dick and lowered herself down. She felt his hips thrust up against her and one hand went to the back of her neck—nothing tight, just steady and firm.

With one hand, she held his hip, more for a guideline of where she was in space since she couldn’t see, and with her other, she sought his other hand. She found it clenched tight against the railing and she slid her fingers over his knuckles. He relaxed beneath her touch, but as she pulled her head back and let her tongue linger over his tip, his grip tightened once more and he barely restrained a moan.

She listened for every hitch in his breath and doubled down when she caught it. He groaned when the head of his cock hit the roof of her mouth so she did it again and again. He choked on his own breath when she pressed a kiss to the base of cock and sucked gently, so she peppered those kisses along his length. He whined, “Ladybug,” as she bobbed on his cock from tip to hilt, so she did it again and again and again until his every breath was, “Ladybug, Ladybug Ladybug,” inhale and exhale, constant, like a fervent prayer.

And then she felt the tendons in his wrist flex and his hand tightened in her hair. Everything about him went rigid and he came. She stayed still, mouth firmly around his cock, until, slowly, his hands unwound from her hair and his grip on the railing relaxed. He sagged backwards and she pressed a kiss to his pelvis once more and nuzzled his thigh the way he had nuzzled hers.

His hand tightened again in her hair, pulling her up and she came obediently, rising to meet his lips with hers and though she could not see him, he guided her all the same. They kissed long and slow, and she and he both, hands working as one, pulled the condom away.

“I wonder,” she murmured between gentle kisses, “if I use my miraculous power, would the Lucky Charm reset you to full hardness?”

He laughed into her mouth and that was how she knew that this had all gone well. There was nothing changed between them, just something new and warm and delicate.

They fell into the chair together, legs hooking around each other. Her boot nudged against a laced sneaker and the cuff of his jeans. His bare hands trailed against the scale-like pattern of her suit. Her lips and his lips brushed against each other as they settled and stilled.

“Are you going to change back?” she murmured.

“Can I enjoy this a moment more?”

She stuck out her lower lip in what she hoped was an exaggerated pout. “I thought you were nervous.”

“Only because this was all I’ve ever dreamed about. Maybe I’m not ready to let it go yet.”

She thought about teasing him, asking if he kept a body pillow of Ladybug that he clung to at night, but that would be unfair of her to mock him after he’d been so vulnerable with her.

He nosed gently at her neck and breathed in, long and slow, and out in the same pace, almost like he was settling in for a nap. She trailed her fingers lazily through his hair, like she might if he were a cat curling up on her chest. She was surprised to find his hair as silky as it was when he was transformed. She had always assumed it was the magic that made his hair so perfect.

He hummed into her neck and it startled her. Not because it was unpleasant, but because she was so used to hearing him purr. Instead, out of his suit, he hummed through his contentment. It was a gentle tune, familiar…

Her hand stilled in his hair. She knew the song he was humming. She knew it because she had heard it one other place and only one other place.

“I didn’t compose it for keyboard,” Adrien had said, “so it might not—”

“I want to hear it,” Marinette had interrupted.

They’d been on the deck of Liberty after a Kitty Section rehearsal. Some of the band had drifted below deck. Others had gone ashore for snacks. Marinette and Adrien had been left alone.

And he’d played it for her. Only for her.

She pulled away from him and fumbled for the table. She practically fell into it; its rounded edge dug into her gut. She squeezed her eyes closed tightly, as if she could undo the memory that had struck her.

“Ladybug?” he asked.

And oh, no, she could already hear him in his voice.

“Ladybug, what’s wro—”

“Stop talking! Stop—stop—stop thinking, oh, please, please stop thinking—”

“Thinking? Ladybug, what are you talking about?”

“You can’t—you can’t know that song!” And as the words left her mouth she regretted them. Because if he knew the song, then she knew who he was. And if he knew that she knew the song, then he would know who she was.

She groaned, and it was the most unhappy groan of the evening. She pressed her head into the table. “I—I’m so sorry.”

He didn’t answer. Her heart pounded and her ears rang and she heard no sound from him. She wondered if he had leapt off of the balcony without a word. She wouldn’t blame him. She wished she could run from what she had just heard and said—but it was too late to undo what she’d done.

She turned and opened her eyes.

And there he was: Adrien Agreste, sitting on her chair, on her balcony, head buried between his knees and hands laced around the back of his neck, struggling to breathe.

She knelt beside him and tried again to apologize. “I’m sorry—”

“This is my fault,” he gasped. “I’m sorry—I never should have said—It was my idea—”

“No, no,” she insisted. “Adrien, I did this. I didn’t have to say anything. Or I could have said no. It’s my responsibility—”

“No, don’t, don’t do that.” He sucked in a deep breath through his teeth. “Please, Ladybug—” He squeezed his eyes closed and wrinkled his nose. “I’m so sorry.”

“You have nothing to apologize for,” she tried, but he hardly seemed to hear her.

He seemed to have gone somewhere even Ladybug couldn’t reach.

She took in a deep breath of her own and did her best to banish every nerve that seemed to light up her veins with fear. Her fear still persisted, and though she knew she would only be less brave without her mask, she also knew that there was no point in pretending they had anymore secrets to keep.

“Tikki, spots off,” she said again.

And now her bare hands were on his denim-clad knees. She trailed her fingers along his arm to his wrist and carefully pried his fingers loose from his neck.

“Adrien,” she whispered. “Will you look at me?”

He hesitated, and she waited. She waited until the tension in his shoulders slumped and his bare hands turned hers over, examining every vein and freckle and tendon like he was seeing it for the first time.

It was the first time, but it also wasn’t.

“I’m sorry, Marinette,” he said again, voice thin.

She bit down on her lip, knowing there was nothing she could say to undo what had been done. It was his fault only as much as it was her fault. She could have kept her guard up. She could have insisted he change back. She never had to return the favor that he had granted her. There were a thousand things they could have changed to have avoided ending up here, and she wasn’t sure that she’d trade any of them.

“I’m not sorry,” she whispered back, and she squeezed his hands.

He let out a long, slow breath, as if it was losing her favor that had been his true fear, rather than this revelation of truth. “Since the beginning?” he asked.

“Imagine how I feel,” she said, “all those months pining after you when you were literally at my side, begging me to date you.”

Finally, he looked up at her, and she thought she saw a smile on the corner of his mouth. “I guess we were both a bit ridiculous.”

And she felt the double-meaning. They had both been ridiculous, pining after each other without even noticing. They had also been ridiculous tonight, thinking they would each be able to pull off this intimacy without revealing their most intimate secret. The way this had ended was inevitable.

She pushed herself up towards him and he met her in another kiss, which was, for each of them, as much an apology as it was forgiveness.

When they pulled apart, she said, “You know, I do have a bed downstairs. Like, a real proper mattress and everything.”

He quirked an eyebrow. “I imagine Tikki and Plagg could find better things to do?”

They kissed again, briefly, because there was too much else to be eager for. Then they both hefted the table from the trapdoor, combining their merely human strength, and slipped down to Marinette’s bedroom, where they would be able to, for the first time, do everything the way that they wanted. No masks. No blindfolds. Nothing to keep them apart—not once their shoes, jeans, and t-shirts had been discarded.

Mending Warped Designs: The Pitfalls of Nostalgia 

The air shimmered as the tip of Chat Noir's blade sliced through it, opening a rift on a rooftop overlooking the city. Outside, the nagging tingle in the back of his mind grew stronger; a distant melody that sounded familiar enough to make his hairs stand on end. And that wasn't the only thing making him uneasy.

"Where do you think they are?" Ladybug asked, slipping through the portal before he could close it behind him. He hated how his shoulders still tensed when he heard her voice; hated how much he needed to throttle the soft, forgiving part of himself that urged him to relax. With Marinette Ladybug having a backdoor to his mind at all times, there was no such thing as “over-cautious” anymore.

Not where she was concerned.

"Can't be sure; one's maybe half a kilometer in that direction and the other is…" Chat Noir cocked his head to one side. "Moving much slower over there."

"If it's… them, wouldn't they be together?" Ladybug asked, perching up on the railing as she surveyed the city below. It was surreal how she just knew something was out there the same way she knew the wind was cold against her cheek. She had tried, many times, to rationalize or explain her sixth-sense that came with her reconstructed body but every time she seemed to land on “it’s just magic”. An explanation that only frustrated her further.

"Typically it's one or the other," Chat Noir muttered. "Venice was the first time I've seen them both fighting at the same time; they have a lot of horrible little projects that demand their divided attention."

"So whatever it is, it must be important," Ladybug said, squinting down at the streets below. “What’s our plan?”

Our plan. It had been years since those words had any meaning. For Chat Noir, it was a reminder of the times he had willingly walked into danger to protect his partner, each battle and each sacrifice now sources of shame for him.

There is no us anymore, Chat Noir reminded himself.

“ My plan is to go see what’s going on down there,” Chat Noir said, tapping Ladybug’s shoulder with his baton as he passed her on his way towards the first energy source. “This shouldn’t take too long; let Rena Rouge know I’m following up on a lead.”

“Done.” Chat Noir turned around to see Ladybug closing her communicator, an unnervingly chipper expression on her face. “Now what?”

So much for his clumsy attempt to detach himself from Ladybug. “I really doubt this is something that requires both of us, so-”

“Then why don’t you let me take care of it?” Ladybug asked, a little more eagerly than she intended. “Seriously, you’ve had a rough couple of days, haven’t you? Maybe you should take a little bit of a rest.”

Even in the half-light of the rooftop, Chat Noir looked like he had just walked out of a warzone. He had about him the air of a man expecting to step on a land-mine; cautious, fidgety, suspicious of every misplaced pebble placed in his path. It was an expression she had come close to wearing in her time as Paris’ hero, but one she had always managed to stop short of.

“I’ve had a rough couple of years ,” Chat Noir sniffed, scarf fluttering behind him as though buffeted by his irritation. “I’m used to working hurt at this point and even if I wasn’t, I can handle a little recon without calling in the reinforcements.”

"I'm sure you are, but…you don't have to work hurt on this one, Adrien," Ladybug said softly. It felt strange calling him by his real name while they were both in costume; maybe it was just her way of digging underneath the black, impenetrable shell of Chat Noir to the boy ( man, Ladybug reminded herself) she knew was underneath.

read on ao3 here:  As his alarm goes off, and the sun trickles through his opaque curtains, Adrien rubs his eyes, waiting for the world around him  to slowly come into focus, and his eyes, beginning to accustom to the light, to lose their weight.

He feels a grin etching along his face as it slowly dawns on him; he’s waking up in a house with Ladybug.

Half-heartedly, he considers knocking on her door and waking her up, but, from the titbits she’s given him on many a patrol, he knows she probably wouldn’t appreciate that.

Nevertheless, there’s no reason he shouldn’t make a good impression on his new housemate.

With a glance over to his dresser, where his replica mask sat, he decided on a plan of action. ...

Despite his best efforts, and using a small towel to prevent heavy contact between the dinnerware and the newly-filling shelves, Adrien could not smother the tell-tale clinks and clanks of his spontaneous morning clean-up.

“Chaton?” Ladybug’s voice rings out to him from the hallway, and Adrien turns in its direction, only to be met by her sluggishly-moving figure. “Why are you awake?” she asks, eyes barely open and feet practically dragging against the carpet.

Adrien startles, feeling along his cheekbone for the tell-tale cold press of fabric, quietly releasing a sigh when he’s sure that yes, he did in fact remember to put his mask on.  

“Oh, um, I usually wake up early. Childhood routine, and all.”

“You’re an abomination, is what you are. How can a normal person possibly wake up at 7 am on a Saturday?” Her gaze lazily drifts over to him, surrounded by piles of crockery and beside a slightly-ajar dishwasher. “And why are you unloading the dishwasher?”

He has no response, choosing, instead, to blink at her.

A beat passed.

“You know what? It doesn’t matter. Just go back to sleep, mon chaton. The dishwasher will still be there in the morning.” Her voice drops to a grumble. “Whether you want it to be or not.”

“But, I’m too awake to sleep,” he pouts.

Her eyes sparkle, a new idea dancing through her mind, and Adrien watches as she tries to hide her smile, shifting subtly so she’s no longer looking him in the eyes.

But not before he notices the soft pale-rose blush that is beginning to speckle along her cheeks.

“Please say you’re not gonna drug me.”

Her head snaps back up at that. “What? No.” And then suddenly, Adrien’s watching an entire pantomime play out on her face - her emotions shifting from joy, to determination, to a flicker of anxiety, and finally, to bashfulness. “Although,” she draws out the word, letting it hang between them like a vine of red roses. “Maybe… cuddling with me will help?” ...

His back against her headboard, Ladybug leaning on his shoulder; her eyes peacefully closed, and lips curled into a gentle smile, Adrien is sure that as long as they’re here, together, he’ll never feel not at home.

Chapters: 1/1 Summary: Based on the song 'About You' by The 1975. Memory Loss. Told in alternating time lines, one leading up to and one dealing with the aftermath of Marinette relinquishing the Miracle Box and the guardianship. Marinette struggles with her life after losing her memory, though there is a persistent voice that calls to her that always seems just out of reach in her memory.

Here is the first scene! Read the rest on AO3!

“Marinette?” 

“Yes?” 

“I love you.” 

“I know.” 

A pigeon flew above their heads, silhouetted by the sun before diving back to the city street. It flew away before the feathery beast could call to Adrien’s allergies. Marinette closed her eyes; her brief glance at the beaming sun sent almost as many spots to cloud her vision as there were on her costume. She’d always loved the sun. How her parents would warn her not to look directly at it, lest its Medusian stare scorch her eyes, yet she would always try to see it for how beautiful it was. And every time, she blinked back tears from the sun’s burning sting of rejection. Marinette opened her eyes just wide enough to squint through the cracks at Adrien next to her. His eyes were shut, long, delicate lashes resting atop his domino mask. The wind picked up stray threads of his hair, so bright in the midday sun that it looked like it had been spun from gold. 

Yes. Marinette had always loved the sun, but when the sun stood unmovable, unable to change how it hurt her, she found a new sun to love instead. 

“Marinette?” 

“Yes?” 

“Do you love me too?” 

“Yes. I do.” 

He opened his eyes, his pupil stretched in a catlike point. Her heart slammed against her chest. Even now, even after everything, his stare was just as arresting as the sun. Marinette was a statue, motionless under his gaze. Her heart surrendered, white flag whipping in the wind because she knew she never stood a chance. 

“Marinette?” 

“Yes, Adrien?” 

“Why aren’t we together?” 

She sat up, clutching her knees to her chest and looking out over her side of the rooftop. Building after building sprawled throughout the city, stretching as far as she could see. All of Paris was their’s to protect. They were responsible for it all. One wrong move and they would all be left to Hawkmoth’s mercy. 

“You know why,” she sighed. 

Adrien sat up, turning to look at her, but for once she couldn’t look at him. “No, I don’t know.” He insisted. “I don’t understand. We love each other. What could stop us?” 

“Hawkmoth.” She turned to him, as she always had, and ached at the sight of his disheartened face. “You know that we can’t be together until he is defeated.”

“But we know each others identities now. We both love each other. All the things we were worried about, everything that stood in our way is gone.” 

“Adrien,” she grabbed his hand and squeezed. “Those were part of it, yes, but as long as Hawkmoth still stands, we can’t be together.” She gave him a sad, wobbly smile and tucked a lock of his messy hair behind his ear. Her gloved hand lingered by his face. How she wished she could touch him, skin to skin, like this. So intimate and delicate. She knew he would let her, sans masks and Miraculous, but Marinette knew that she couldn’t. Not until Hawkmoth was defeated. “Not like how we want.” 

He closed his hand around hers, dragging it down his jaw to his mouth. He pressed his lips against her knuckles. Slowly, he lifted his eyes to meet hers, intensity burning with every second he held her stare. “I understand.” His voice was husky and thick, like he was swallowing a spoon of honey to help an uncomfortable pill go down. “Marinette?”

“Yes?”

“I would wait for you until the world ends.” 

It was overwhelming, the love he had for her. Even before they revealed their identities—before they truly knew each other, backwards, forwards, and every which way—he had always been so sure that he loved her. Marinette was no stranger to magic, the earrings and costume she wore were proof enough of its existence in the world, but she was positive that there was nothing in the world more magical than the love—the overwhelming, heart-surrendering love—Adrien had for her. 

The sun had already begun its descent towards the horizon. Every inch and mile that the sun dropped was a moment closer to their final battle against Hawkmoth. A moment closer to when they could finally be together, but Marinette couldn’t help but buzz with anxiety at the forthcoming ending. She laid down on the roof, pulling Adrien down with her, until they were back in their original position: her facing one direction; him facing the other; their eyes perfectly aligned. 

“Until that happens, can we just lay here and look in each other’s eyes?”

ART BY @mari-cherri (@mari-monsta) THANK U SO MUCH MARI MUAH

I posted a new fic!

I (Wish I) Knew You

49k words, 10 chapters, COMPLETE

LadyNoir, aged-up, hurt/comfort, (please check the tags for possible triggers, etc)

University has been hard on Marinette. Making new friends and maintaining her grades is a lot easier said than done when she has to disappear at odd times to fight akumas. She's struggling, and with Alya away with family and Adrien painfully out of reach, she's never felt lonelier. If only she could talk to someone who really understood her struggles... but it's not like Chat Noir would know anything about loneliness. Right?

Summary:

Chat Noir's had enough of helping Ladybug "practice" kissing. It just hurts too much, knowing she only wants to impress some other guy. Ladybug probably should have made it clear that he's the guy she wants to impress.

#coffeebanana fics #miraculous ladybug #ladynoir #the love square has one brain cell and neither of them have it in this fic #i've wanted to write a 'practice kissing' fic for SO LONG and today i realized the way to make it work was simply to make it stupider

(slumber) partycrasher

He’s finishing up on Rue de la République when he sees Ladybug on Alya’s balcony. His footsteps slow to a halt on the roof tile. It’s Sunday today, isn't it? Ladybug doesn't patrol on Sundays. Did something happen at Alya’s? He stops, reroutes, and heads over.

He gets closer, the lights bringing them further into focus. The two girls stand close together, huddled over Alya’s phone, murmuring quietly.

“Good evening, ladies,” he says as he lands.

The shriek that exits Ladybug echoes through the street.

He stands there, rigid, all the punny greetings he had planned effectively smacked out of his mouth. He has never heard Ladybug make that sound before. He didn't even know Ladybug was capable of making that sound. Even Alya seems taken aback, staring at her wide-eyed.

After five heavy seconds of silence, Ladybug comes back to life. “Um—!” she says. “Wow! Chat Noir! Hi! I wasn't expecting you to crash our slumber party!”

He blinks, still reeling from the scream. “...Slumber party?”

This time, it's Alya’s stupor that lifts. “Um— yep! Ladybug comes over every Sunday and we have a sleepover. Y’know, Ladyblogger-Ladybug bonding time.”

Huh. So that’s why she doesn't patrol on Sundays? He thought it was a civilian thing.

…She could've told him.

“Oh. Well.” He hopes his voice doesn't sound strained. “Don’t let me intrude.” He gives them both a smile, then leaps back onto the rooftops.

Neither of them say goodbye.

══ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══

He doesn't want to be petty, but why would Ladybug not tell him about the sleepovers? They’d agreed to keep superhero things completely transparent between each other. So is this not a superhero thing, then? Is Ladybug hanging out in costume with Alya Césaire more personal than hanging out with Chat Noir?

He huffs, eyes snapping over to the light on Alya’s balcony. He has a right to bring this up, surely. He's her partner.

Ladybug is alone, this time, but the glass door is open. She has a blanket over her shoulders, a fox-printed mug in her hand, the light of Alya’s phone illuminating her face, eyes glued to the screen.

Remembering her reaction from the last time, he steps onto the balcony a little gentler from behind her. “Hey—”

“They're making out on a fire escape.”

He chokes on his spit, grappling for purchase at the balcony door. “I— I’m sorry?”

Ladybug whips around, the blanket flying onto the floor. At least she doesn't scream again. But the look in her eye is somehow even more concerning.

Behind him, a toilet flushes, and padded footsteps draw near. “Did you get to the part where he books a hotel—” She cuts herself off with a gasp. “...Chat Noir. Hi.”

The three of them stand together silently, in their awkward vertical line, for what feels like a full minute.

This was such a stupid idea. What’s wrong with him, accosting his partner on her days off? It’s not his business how she spends that, nor who she spends it with. Unlike him, she’s not wasting all her time thinking about their partnership. Maybe he just needs to get a life.

“Sorry for crashing— again,” he quickly says. He takes a couple of steps back to the railing, turning to face both of them. “I— uh, thought there was an akuma down the road and wanted to tell you but, uh, looks like it's just a tree.” He laughs nervously, grabbing around for his baton. “I’ll be off, then.”

“Wait— are you sure—” Ladybug starts.

There’s sympathy in her eyes. His breath hitches.

“Yes!” he says. As he steps away from her again, his baton slips from his hand. “Sorry, I’ll just text next time.”

Alya pipes up from behind him. “Chat, you’re always welcome to stay—”

“No, seriously, I, like, am allergic to sleepovers. I break out into hives.”

Ladybug furrows her brow. “I don't think that's true.”

“My medical history is very complicated.” Finally retrieving his baton, he opens it and turns to the skyline. “Well, bye!”

Ladybug makes a small, aborted sound of protest. But then as she reaches to stop him, her grip on Alya’s phone slips.

She screams. Alya screams. Chat Noir wonders whether this is what they're practicing together every Sunday.

Still balanced on his baton, he grabs the phone midair, holding it up over the safety of the balcony.

Automatically, his eyes fall on the screen.

Ladybug moans as Chat Noir kisses down her neck. He lifts her onto the fire escape, pulling her legs around him, lifting his head to press a hot, wet, kiss to her—

Alya snatches the phone from his hand. “Thanks.”

Ladybug’s face is crimson, hands tight around her mug.

Chat Noir looks from Ladybug, to Alya, to the phone. Her screen is still on. He looks away before he catches any more words.

He clears his throat. “W-Well, I should, uh, get off, then. I mean—!” He holds up his hands. “Be off! This balcony! And back home! Um— you should read— I mean, um, use your phone indoors just in case. Bye!”

He never does get around to asking about their slumber parties.

if you haven't read @buggachat's fic I (Wish I) Knew You 🌹 then PLEASE READ IT NOW it is really just SO GOOD and I keep re-reading it and my heart keeps bursting-

I wanted to interpret one of my favourite exchanges in Chapter 1:

“Asking again— did you watch the movie?” he laughed.

“Whatever,” she scoffed, “It doesn’t matter. If he’s not with her, he’s probably with someone else. Adrien Agreste is like a pretty little princess in a fairytale, locked away in some unreachable tower, out of sight and out of mind, rich and famous and high above everyone else and surrounded by love and happiness—”

“Another question comes to me,” he said, “Have you ever read a fairytale?”

And what if the ghosts of their fairytale selves were standing next to them I asked myself ;) ?

(Costume inspiration comes from the amazing show illustrations by avril_circus)

Images without text and without the dreamy effect under the cut :)

(what are you still doing here? go read the fic ;) ❤ )
