Miraculous Fic Rec of Underrated Stories Pt. 1
I read too much fanfiction. In efforts to slow myself down ive decided to start a rec series. These are all the stories ive read that are not my top recs, but definitely underrated. Give them some love!
Jealousy, Jealousy by MyFairKatie
Oneshot, 2k
Adrien takes it upon himself to make Lila as jealous of Marinette as he possibly can—which may or may not lead to him blurting out that they are dating.
Whoops.
Not labeled as crack but definitely crack. Or at least, I take it as such given the liberties taken with the characterization. I think its funny and the lila takedown is refreshingly different amidst the large body of preexisting lila takedown fics.
Emergency Contact by CoffeeBanana
Complete, 18k, 4 chap
When Marinette invites Adrien to live with her temporarily while she recovers from an injury, she thinks the hardest part is going to be hiding her feelings from him. But Adrien's idea of being helpful might go...a little overboard.
Some solid post reveal pre relationship adrienette. I like the emphasis on communication. Theyre adults and have already defeated hawkmoth, so its a chill dynamic.
Imposter Syndrome by highspeedearth
Oneshot, 2k
Impostor Syndrome: when you believe it is only a matter of time before they find out you don't know what you are doing.
Marinette had a bad day, and this time transforming into Ladybug doesn't help.
Chat Noir plucks her off the Eiffel Tower for a pep talk.
Hurt/comfort for sure, but i really like the angle. Written pre season 4, so when it discusses marinette under stress, its not from a guardian angle. It lets the characters really think about how their perceptions of what their bodies are capable of have changed due to holding a miraculous, and the tone of the story is very nice. Almost slice of lifeish? This could be inserted into canon and break nothing, while still being meaningful. Nice read
the wonderful part of the mess that we made by heresie_irisee
Oneshot, 13k
They knew.
They knew, and there would be no magical reset button for the memories they'd made today. She'd have to see him at school every day, and she'd see the Chat in him, as surely as he'd see the Ladybug in her.
They remember the events of oblivio au. I highly enjoy stories where learning each others identities does not lead to a no-discussion lovefest. This is a great marinette pov of her overthinking everything and questioning the validity of her feelings. No salt is thrown in the process and its a nice feelings analysis and resolution.
Missed me, Missed me (Now You Gotta Kiss Me) by orphan_account
Oneshot, 5k
When last minute plans come up, Chat Noir leaves the country for two weeks. Ladybug finds she misses him far more than she thought she would.
One word: ladynoir. Story ignores ladybug falling in love with chat, just jumps straight there. Its just 5k of pining guys. Their interaction is funny, gotta love the ladynoir quips. And the author LEAVES THE STORY AT THE WORST (BEST) PLACE ARKRGOGMGNGKDKSD
Plagg and the Variety Cheese Pack by quicksilversquared
Oneshot, 5k
Plagg can sniff out cheese anytime, anywhere. It's a special talent of his. But it can get him in trouble as well.
When Marinette buys a variety cheese pack for Chat Noir, Plagg sniffs it out and ends up accidentally going home with her. Will he get back to Adrien before the next akuma attack?
(Probably not)
Hijinks and shenanigans, unsurprisingly. Plagg-centric, which is great cause he (and the kwamis in general) deserve more love. I like how adrien circumnavigates plaggs eccentricities and how its funny in the story, while not ragging too hard on plagg for being difficult.
your lips are meant to be kissed by zimtlein
Oneshot, 12k
During a tipsy evening, Adrien kisses Marinette’s forehead.
Understandably enough, Marinette has a complete meltdown.
Explicit story, rated 18 and up. Post reveal. Marinette is hilariously thirsty throughout all of this, and her only barrier is herself. Vibes a bit like a slow burn despite being a oneshot. Despite the tag, i would definitely catagorize this as a pwp.
Lighten up by PurpleRose244
Oneshot, 6k
Take the high road, do not intervene. That was what Adrien said, to his friend and to himself.
Then again, Chat Noir said none of that. And he really didn't like seeing Marinette sad.
Lila takedown story + identity reveal. Set at a fancy christmas party. Hits all the right beats without any salt or out of nowhere identity revelation. I think its pretty in character and trim, albiet ignoring canons problems with identity reveals.
Unwise by GalahadWilder
Incomplete, 4k, 2 chap
Ladybug is exhausted, and Chat convinces her to finally start bringing on the temp wielders permanently.
Unfortunately for Chat's poor kitty brain, she chooses to use that opportunity to set up Multimouse with Aspik.
He is SO SCREWED.
Unlikely to be finished, so just treat it like a oneshot. But its got some lovely ladynoir interaction, ladybug and chat noir actually in an equal partnership, some mouse!marinette, and some bee!adrien, desipte what the summary says. I think that matchup makes way more sense, so its cool to see it. I love vipermouse, its just like adrienette except even sillier and more fabricated complications.
Thats it for now! I may try to link future rec lists together :3 well see how well i can navigate tumblr interface

(Fics I read throughout the day yesterday and enjoyed)
ML
Imposter Syndrome by highspeedearth
Impostor Syndrome: when you believe it is only a matter of time before they find out you don't know what you are doing.
Marinette had a bad day, and this time transforming into Ladybug doesn't help.
Chat Noir plucks her off the Eiffel Tower for a pep talk.
Marinette spiraling a little after being reminded just how much of a physical difference there is between her and Ladybug and Chat cheering her up and reminding her that they’re one and the same.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Spellbound by Lilafly ( @lilaflyy )
Going out on Midsummer had been a very bad idea, Adrien was able to admit that much. He couldn’t regret running into a girl named Marinette though, who had helped him through the time where Faerie tried to call him with sweet songs.
He really wanted to get to know her better, but there was a slight problem: he was a Cat Sidhe and if she found out about it, she might as well be proclaimed dead on the spot. But the loneliness he had seen in her eyes had been too familiar for him to just leave her alone. Keeping her ignorant of the presence of the fair folk, while he himself was one of them, proved to be a lot harder than he had expected it to be though.
Spellbound updated! (ノ⌒∇⌒)ノ*:・゚✧※☆°**・.:.
So I’ve rec’d it before here and here but to reiterate:
Faedrien (cat sidhe) twins au with changeling!Bridgette. Love square romance, AroAce!Felix, kwami backstory, miraculous lore, lots of Fae lore, Bridgette backstory, kwami swaps, and lots of other fun stuff!
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆

AtLA
In The Garden Light At Dawn by Rosemary_and_Geraniums
Zuko never got to complete his redemption arc. When he confronted his father on the day of the eclipse, he never walked away from the fight.
Alternatively:
Ozai killed his son before he could run away and join the avatar, mixed with my favorite SoulmateAU where the gaang is one big soul family.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Unwanted Friends by FoiblePNoteworthy ( @foiblepnoteworthy )
Aang knew those swords. He’d seen them every day, felt the warm, if rough, presence of their owner in all his hardest moments and coldest flights. He was a strong figure, gentle in his own way. A Firebender who still used swords.
***
There needs to be more platonic soulmate AUs, you guys. Come on. Who wants to see Zuko get dragged into his redemption arc by his soulmates?
So TunaFishChris’s The Family You Choose is still my favorite iteration of the idea of soulmates I’ve ever come across. When you touch blood with your soulmate you share memories and exist like a ghost in their life that only they can interact with. Both of the above stories are takes on that au.

The magazine article reads: "Hey laddies and gentle-women, having a steamy summer romance here in the city of love? We've been infatuated: highly desirable it-boy Adrien Agreste has girls' hearts aflutter this summer with his athletic physique, boyish good looks, and a bad-boy allure that surfaces when you least expect it.
So what do you think – is this the boy who has it all? Are there ANY downsides to dat A.A. life?" ✰ Water off a duck's back. He doesn't know who they are but they're all interchangeable anyway. So are the pictures they take, in the end. He's used to walking straight past them: straight lines, expression relaxed no matter how many eyes fasten to his face. It's only since Plagg, and since Marinette, that he's learned it's okay to dodge.

I Would Never, Ever Say a Word Wrong on Purpose Just so That It Rhymes
ML Secret Santa '19: I would never, ever say a word wrong on purpose just so that it rhymes by highspeedearth
Adrien is the fastest man in Paris but too slow to catch the cats * "Scottish lairds." He draws a circle on her shoulder, then a few more. "Lumberjacks. Long johns. And your cape. This is the Venn diagram of plaid."
"Shut up," Mari smiles. "I love it and I'm never taking it off."
