Limit Break;
Shipping things.
I love how my top favorite pairings with Squall aren't even with people from FF8. How does something like that even happen? I think I started shipping Squall with Aerith like 20 years ago and Squall and Yuna not long after. Squall and Cloud is also a classic, but I honestly don't know how Squall and Yuna happened. Squall/Aerith and Cloud/Squall I can at least throw Kingdom Hearts in as a big reason but ???????? Squall/Yuna???? it's so good??? it makes me happy and giggly to see it??????

Adrino Fic Recs - Part 2!!!
I’ve been promising this for months, and I’ve been struggling to finish any of my fics, but I figured this was something I could definitely finish! And share with you all.
Here’s is Part 1 if you missed it the first time. I was in search of romantic Adrino when curating this list, but a few of the ones that made the list might be a bit ambiguous and could be interpreted either way.
Here we go again in no particular order:
(Actually, I lied, the multi-chapters all ended up at the end):
1) In which Adrien braids his boyfriend’s hair by @ck2k18.
The title says it all. This is a little tiny one-shot, and it packs an emotional punch of pure sweetness. And I can’t say more than that. It’s just perfect. You should read it!
2) Blindsided by Leisey.
Nino has figured out Adrien’s identity, so despite his own feelings, he’s determined to set Adrien up with Ladybug, but Adrien isn’t cooperating. I positively adore the narrative voice the author has written for Nino in this one. It’s just delightful and fun and hilarious all in one. Longer one-shot.
3) Corrupt you on the dance floor/take you home by Reiaji
Nino doesn’t fit in Adrien’s crazy life. But somehow he’s still in it, and he’s not letting go. This is the same person who wrote “whose woods these are (I think I know)” so you know they just have a way with metaphors and imagery and making your feel things, and this one-shot is no exception to that.
4) Would you Rather? By SiderealSandman
The class is having discussions on who they would rather kiss. Ladybug or Chat Noir. Nino and Adrien are both super embarrassed. This is just mostly miracuclass shenanigans in an au where Nino is Ladybug. One-shot.
5) Emotional Support Turtle by Distraught_by_your_Love
Nino figures Adrien out and then helps him run away from home. This one alternates between narrative scenes and text fic, and I love it. This writer really did capture Nino’s voice in both dialogue and text. Platonic longer one-shot.
6) Chit-Chat by MuseofWriting
Chat Noir keeps visiting Nino to hang out, and Nino has no idea why, but he doesn’t want it to stop. Again, more platonic, but it hints at something more developing. One-shot.
7) Your Secret is Safe by WoodenSuitcase
When Ladybug lets it slip that she told her identity to Alya who is her best friend, Chat comes to the conclusion that Ladybug is Nino. This setup is borderline crack and requires a bit of suspension of disbelief, but the concluding conversation about pronouns is just so wholesome and made me cry the first time I read it. One-shot.
8) How We Began by Heart With A Vacancy
Adrien tells the story of how he and Nino began to their child. Beyond precious. Established relationship. Short one-shot.
9) I can think of something better by @ladynoirist
Chat has a tendency to come visit Nino after Nino’s had some rough days. Nino starts to notice some patterns. They’re kinda dating in this one, but it’s never actually acknowledged. Super cute! One-shot.
10) Antihero Adrien WIP Two: Carapace Edition by LoganLight (@chronicallylatetotheparty)
Look! I can read this one over and over again, and it makes me feel things. This writer is kinda my idol for fight scenes with emotional subtext that just makes everything feel raw. (The Adrigami part one of this is also amazing). Little tiny one-shot. But it’s intense.
11) Off the Mark by @buggachat
Nino vents to Adrien about Chat being weird, so Adrien keeps changing Chat’s behavior to make Nino happy, which just makes Nino feel even more weird. Both hilarious and sad. Ultimately cathartic. Platonic longer one-shot.
12) Out of Your Orbit also by @buggachat
Buggachat apparently is in the habit of dropping multi-chapter fics all at once out of friggin nowhere (in addition to almost daily comics). This particular fic is amazing!! The characterizations are perfect. There is longing/pining, core four shenanigans with so much hilarity, but also feelings, and definitely lots of romance. Features Alyanette throughout the fic, but this story is ultimately about Adrino. I’ve already reread this one like three times. No powers au. Multi-chapter.
13) Best Friends and Boyfriends by Kasienda
More shameless self promotion, and I feel less awkward this time because there’s so few multi-chapter stories with this pairing. But basically, in this incredibly self indulgent fic, Chat and Carapace are dating pre-reveal while Adrien and Nino are talking to each other about their boyfriends. Also features background Alyanette. Mostly fluff with a little bit of disagreement thrown in for depth. I find the make up (and make out) scene and reveal in this one to be SO SATISFYING. This is my comfort fic. I reread it when I’m sick. Hope you enjoy it!
And that’s part two of my recs! Hope you enjoy them!
