I think it’s important to notice, sweet cinnamon roll Adrien who is usually not very confrontational constantly defends Marinette and harshly confronts anyone who tries to harm her in any sort of way.
Tumblr media
It’s become even more obvious now that they’re dating. Like, he balled up his fist when he heard Kim telling the story about how he pranked Marinette. He was so quick to finally end his friendship with Chloe once he heard the entire story.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And truth be told, this isn’t something he just started doing. Let’s not forget how he threatened Lila and let her be his modeling partner just so he could get her to stop lying about Marinette.
Adrien is so in love with Marinette, enough to stand up for her and unleash some real boiling anger on anyone who tries to mess with her. He simply won’t tolerate it. It’s so character breaking for Adrien to be harsh, but he’s willing to be that way so long as he’s defending Marinette.
I also gotta admit, I love that Adrien keeps going against his father’s wishes to end his relationship with Marinette, and keeps having dates with her and keeps trying to convince Gabriel that she’s great.
Tumblr media
Gabriel can stop Adrien from kissing her, but Adrien is never going to give up on Marinette and I love that. Adrien is slowly getting better at standing up to his father, which is some great character development, because it is never easy to stand up to someone who abuses you.
The only scary thing is that we’ve seen how much harm Adrien is capable of causing when he’s angry. He loses his temper the slightest bit when he’s Cat Noir, he has no issue cataclysming the villain. It’s rather terrifying to think of what could happen if someone pushes Adrien over the edge.

Ml Analysis: Marinette's crush on Kim
You know, Marinette having a crush on Kim in the past in "Derision" checks out so much more than people give it credit for.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Marinette is a kid who got bullied on an sometimes even extreme level on a daily for years by Chloé and by the power she has over the school environment (or more accurately, Chloé's parents) and under these circumstances that we saw it makes perfect sense for why she felt drawn to Kim. Kim embodys alot of characteristics she would find comforting or even attractive because of her being a victim of bullying.
Tumblr media
- Basics: Kim is tall, strong and sporty. He could effectively defend and protect her from Chloé or almost any of the other kids.
- He's stupid and this manifest itself very dominently in him not being too bothered by authority or threats. No, I'm not joking, him being stupid factors into this. "Derision" shows how everyone around Marinette is at least to some degree afraid of Chloé (or her parents) because of her power, the verbal insults she can deliver or physical "pranks"/bullying she pulls. Kim on the other hand isn't bothered in the slightest by whatever Chloé does and because of that Chloé has barely any power over him the same way she does everyone else.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Plus, Ms. Mendeleiev is characterized and highlighted as the strictest, most unfair and most "Chloé-like" teacher and one thing is for sure, she definitely would have some "nice" opinions on Kim too and certainly wouldn't hold back voicing those either. We don't need to see it on screen to know how she would treat certain students we know by now. And just like with Chloé, Kim probably isn't too bothered by Ms. Mendeleiev either besides being annoyed by her unfairness. I have no problem seeing how Marinette would find herself drawn to a person who isn't bothered by Chloé's and Ms. Mendeleiev bullying (because it's flying right over his head), something she has to constantly endure and feels very hurt by.
Also: if he already doesn't mind whatever they can do or say it to him, then the chances are good that he isn't very interested in whatever mean things they say about or do to others (meaning: Marinette) either. Logically, Marinette would find the thought of being with a person who won't listen to or believe everything bad being said about her ect VERY appealing.
Tumblr media
- because of Kim not being bothered by the bully environment they are all in, he is probably by a good edge the most carefree and "fun" student/friend around. And fun is something Marinette certainly missed in the school environment or wished she could have despite the danger she's constantly in because of Chloé and the teachers.
- and one more thing I think is incredibly important: it's not like Marinette isn't SEEING right in front of her eyes that Kim has bully characteristics too. They immediately showed that through the old dynamic between Kim and Max:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Socqueline is right in her concern when she doesn't want Marinette to get closer to Kim because she can see that he behaves in ways that clearly will clash with everything Chloé puts her through. But the thing is, Marinette is not stupid. She knows that but she didn't minded it and was even drawn to Kim because she saw that whatever Kim is doing that resembles Chloé's bullying isn't done by him with the intention of bullying.
It is realistic that Marinette would find comfort in a person like that in her circumstances because Kim is openly showing his worst (yes, one should acknowledge here that is was clearly shown that Kim by himself would have never done to Marinette what he did. Even he double checked with Chloé if she was sure that Marinette would like a prank like that) and therefore Marinette knows (or thought) that his worst therefore can't be truly dangerous to her. And may I say, feeling like the worst the other person can/will do to you not being something you have to fear because you don't concider their worst dangerous to you IS something humans are naturally very attracted to. This perfectly checks out, Marinette’s rose-colored glasses just.. overlooked a bit too much potential danger in good faith.
What mattered most to past Marinette in that moment is that she can't see any malice in his actions and intentions. And because of that she didn't minded the thought of putting up with Kim's more negative characteristics. She knew this isn't the same as with Chloé.
This is also one major factor of why Kim's prank messed Marinette up so much and why that should have been properly acknowledge by the episode because Chloé alone didn't cause this. Kim as a person and the fact that he sorta-bullies without malice was just as important. Marinette made a clear-cut distinction between Chloé's bully behavior and Kim's and was drawn to him because in her eyes his kindness/ not maliciousness outweighed the negative.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
BUT then Chloé as an outside force came along and took Kim - who is one of the few students not intimidated by Chloe and actually finds her charming - and his bullying without maliciousness and turned his regular "danger-level" up to an eleven by using his kindness/ and stupidness against Marinette.
Kim's kindness and not maliciousness may have outweighed his negative character traits and because of that Marinette wouldn't have minded at all putting up with it since she knew that Kim himself isn't a danger to her the way Chloé is, but the thing that truly traumatized Marinette is having wittnessed that a person's kindness or low danger-level doesn't stop the world around them to use and turn their kindness into something else and into a weapon against her. It's when even kindness looses it's purity and therefore can't be trusted anymore because of bad people corrupting it and the good person (this is literally the same base structure as what Gabriel does to the akuma victims Marinette has to save)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And concidering that this is exactly one of the true major issues Marinette has with pursuing Adrien romantically and which hold her back from accepting his kindness towards her as true and loving as it is - something she is even directly referring to and calling out in this very episode! - one would think this episode would have prioritized highlighting it instead of just blaming everything on Chloé and Chloé alone because it's easy. Like, that was the point!
Please point it out and not just the Chloé part! If there was one narrative half that could have remained in the surface-level subtext, it should have been the Chloé part and not the one directly explaining to us alot of major reasons why Marinette behaves around Adrien AND Chat Noir the way she does and most importantly: why Adrien/Chat Noir is inherently DIFFERENT and therefore never truly off-putting to her no matter how similar some points I just listed get.
But that is a whole analysis for itself and it's way past midnight now so I'll add it on another day.

All That Is Necessary - Chapter 31
Co-Written with @raspberrycatapult
PREVIEW:
Kim gave a proud bow, then set down the tea tin and wiped his brow. ‘Phew! You need muscles of steel to open these things. Who the hell thought square lids were a good idea? Anyway…what can I get you two? Some tea, maybe?’
Adrien’s mouth quirked. ‘Sure. Why not? And we were thinking some early lunch.’
Kim nodded and handed him a sheet of paper. A handwritten menu. ‘There’s today’s special, too.’ He pointed at a whiteboard propped up on the side.
Marinette blinked at it. ‘What’s…The Felix? ’
‘It’s a soup made from the last of the fruit and veg Felix helped reserve for us before it all spoils.’
‘...like what?’
‘Ooh, let’s see, there’s….’ He started ticking items off on his fingers. ‘...potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, asparagus, green beans, bananas, apples, tomatoes….’
‘That…sounds alright, I guess.’ 
‘...plus UHT milk and noodles. For substance.’
She wrinkled her nose. ‘I take it back. It sounds as weird as the person it’s named for.’
Kim frowned. ‘You don’t like Felix?’

My thoughts while watching Miraculous Derision (SPOILERS!!!)
Adrien was so cute to call her, he knows she’s definitely still asleep lol
That was like the shortest phone call ever lol
Was that like an incoming panic attack or a bad acid trip??
It’s so funny that this is like their first official date and they decide to go to the swimming pool, where they’ll be half naked the whole time, lmao who thought this would be a good idea?
The way she looks at their hands ahhhh
Not even 5 minutes into the episode and Monarch is swooping in
She used to have a crush on Kim?? No offense to Kim but girl you could do so much better
BLUE JEANS???
Oh my god that’s horrifying Chloe wtf??
They’re right though, why does she get off so much on torturing Marinette?
It’s nice to know Marinette actually had a friend looking out for her in school before Alya because her life was miserable
Why would Kim think anything Chloe has to say is a good idea?
Socqueline is amazing
Is… is this really the reason they’re going with for why she literally stalked Adrien???
Ok yeah, I can’t remember her name but what she’s saying to Kim is so true
This is not the kwami/holder reunion we wanted
“There’s no flying in the pool” excuse me??? Lmao
Adrien is pressed
Why has she not transformed back when she lost her yo-yo before?
Glad to see Kim is changing his ways
The emphasis on “scared of losing you” I can’t
Oh Adrien is done

thinking about in dark cupid when Marinette blamed herself for Kim’s embarrassment, because she encouraged him to ask out Chloé. She is way to nice, I would’ve been laughing in his face.

An unexpected drawing from my sister.
She liked their image of a naive jock and a cute musician.

Ей нравился их образ наивного спортсмена и симпатичного музыканта.)

All That Is Necessary - Ch 4
Co-Written with @raspberrycatapult​​
PREVIEW from Chapter 4:
Who knew how long this would go on for. How long it would be until the adults came back. 
If they came back.
A cold chill ran through her. She shivered despite the jacket she wore.
No. They had to. They had to come back. This was all just a bad dream. Some sick game. At any moment the adults would reappear. Her parents would come running out of the bakery, arms raised, calling her name….
‘Marinette?’
For a moment, she allowed herself to believe the vision had come true. Then she blinked herself back to the moment and turned to Adrien, reading the question in his eyes: Are you okay? She gave him a small nod but knew he wouldn’t buy it.
She turned back to their friends. ‘You’re looking after all these kids on your own?’ She thought of Alya and Nino, fetching their siblings.
The other three exchanged a look, and Marinette understood. None of them had considered that they were looking after those children. None of them had thought about the long term. 
‘Where are some of the others?’ Adrien asked. ‘Like Mylene or Alix?’
‘A lot of them went to their houses, to check for…you know.’ Rose said this in a hushed voice. As though their parents had become supernatural entities you didn’t want to invoke by name, lest they punish you.
‘Others went to get food,’ Luka added.
‘Speaking of…,’ said Rose.
Max and Kim were approaching. As they came closer, Marinette saw that Kim was holding a croque monsieur in a white serviette, nibbling on it as he walked. The sight of something so normal was startling.
‘So we meet again,’ Max greeted them.
‘Hey guys,’ Kim said, standing beside Adrien. ‘What’s up?’
‘Where did you get that?’ Marinette asked.
Kim shrugged, picking out a piece of ham and popping it in his mouth. ‘That cafe-bar on the corner. No adults, obviously.’
‘Did you just…take it?’ asked Adrien.
‘...yes?’ Kim said, licking the grease from his fingers. ‘Is that…bad? I would have paid if there’d been anyone there to pay, but….’
Adrien shook his head. ‘Yeah, I’m…sorry, Kim. You’re right, I guess. It just….’
‘...feels wrong,’ Marinette finished.
They shared a look. How was it that after so long silently loving this boy, in the space of a few hours it felt like he was the only one who understood what was in her mind? Because in that moment, she was certain they were thinking the same thing:
This was like the boys driving that stolen car. One more step over some line that, once crossed, meant a point of no return. Like Napoleon and the Rubicon river.
She surveyed the park again, finding the place Kim had mentioned. It was directly opposite the bakery, right at the entrance to the park. She’d eaten there once or twice. Her parents were friendly with the owners. 
‘I’m hungry,’ one of the little kids spoke up, and Kim startled, only just seeming to notice them. 
‘Feel free to go grab something,’ he said. ‘There’s plenty more where this came from. Soup, too. And cake. And half-eaten food on the tables, but that’s gross.’
Now they were encouraging children to steal. ‘You can’t –’ Marinette started to say, then stopped herself. Because who was she to tell these kids what to do? She wasn’t their mother. She wasn’t responsible for them.
She didn’t want to be responsible for them.
