I have a request. How about Lila’s mom comes to school because Lila forgot something. And she comes to class only to see them screaming at marinette to stop being “jealous” and stop “bullying” because of another lie Lila told. Lila’s mom also sees mrs. Bustier not doing anything to stop it. So she steps in and Lila pales at the sight of her mom. Then she sets things straight and goes off on Lila for lying again. In the end Lila and the class get punished. And lila gets held back a year.
Mrs. Rossi was already in an annoyed mood. She had already been running late this morning, and needed to get to work. But right as she went to leave, she saw that Lila had left her homework binder on the counter.
She was irritated with her daughter for being so irresponsible. Part of her considered just leaving it there and letting Lila face the consequences. She left it, she can take the bad grade. But then Mrs Rossi remembered that this assignment was worth a lot and if Lila got a bad grade, it would really affect her overall grade.
Mrs Rossi decided to just take it to the school, and she would deal with her daughter later. Little did Mrs Rossi know, Lila would wish her mother had left it alone. She had left the binder on purpose. Lila had planned to blame Marinette for the missing assignment, saying that the girl had wanted Lila to fail so she stole the assignment from her on the way to school.
Mrs Rossi strode into the school and up the stairs to her daughters class, texting on her phone to try and explain to her boss why she is late. Her focus was glued to her phone, that is until she heard the yelling. When she looked up, Mrs Rossi saw the entirety of her daughter’s class, standing and yelling at one girl in the back of the class. They were yelling at her for “bullying Lila” and “stealing her homework” so this girl would have a better than Lila.
But none of this made sense. Lila’s homework wasn’t stolen, Mrs Rossi had it in her hand. Why did the class think this girl stole it? And why wasn’t her daughter correcting them? Surely she knew about her homework, so this girl couldn’t have stolen it. Mrs Rossi felt her stomach twist. She had seen her daughter finally, and she was smiling maliciously.
Then Mrs Rossi understood. Her daughter was lying again. She had done this at every school in Italy. She always lied to everyone, about everything. Fake conditions, fake achievements, anything she could think of. And she had also previously used those lies to target specific students and make them miserable. She had been expelled from several schools for this behavior, but Lila had seemed better since moving to Paris. Reticently, Mrs Rossi realized that Lila had seemed better, because Mrs Rossi had been willfully ignoring it. Now the lack of the communication from the school, and several “school closures” seemed way more troubling.
She glanced at the teacher, Bustier, but Bustier wasn’t doing anything. She was just watching the chaos, like it was some twisted show. Mrs Rossi couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Well, if she wasn’t going to stop this, Mrs Rossi absolutely would. Her daughter wasn’t going to ruin another girl’s life.
Mrs Rossi stormed into the classroom, yelling, “LILA ROSSI”. The entire class whipped around at the sudden intrusion and stared at her. Most looked confused, but Lila didn’t. She looked terrified, and paled almost instantly upon seeing her mother.
“Mom… what are you doing here?” Lila glanced around the room, completely panicked. Especially when she spotted a certain binder in her mother’s arms.
“It doesn’t matter why I’m here. What matters is you are lying again! You told your class that this girl stole your homework? You know good and well that you left it at the house. It’s right here! I thought you had gotten over this lying phase of yours, but clearly not!” Mrs Rossi threw down the binder on the sad excuse of a teacher’s desk, angry beyond measure.
Lila was stuttering, trying to think of someway out of this, as she felt the stares of her class on her. This was very bad, Lila had intended for this lie to fully turn the class against Marinette. She hadn’t expected her mother to see the binder and bring it to the school. “Mom it’s not what you think, Marinette, she… she threatened me. Told me not to bring my homework or I’d be sorr-”
Lila couldn’t even finish her lie, her mother’s anger growing with every word until she exploded. “ENOUGH! You did this in every school you went to in Italy, and I thought I got the lesson through your head this time! Clearly not! I didn’t warn this school because you seemed to understand it this time, I guess that was my own naivety. Get up, you are coming with me to the principals office! I’m willing to bet he has some interesting stories to tell me of what you’ve been up to! I wonder if you have that lying disease again, or the one about saving some random celebrity pet. It’s the same nonsense every time and I’m sick of it!”
Lila tried to stammer out protests, she really did not want her mom to talk to Damocles. But deep down, she knew it was pointless, her mom was furious and wouldn’t take no for an answer. She felt the betrayed looks from the class on her back, as they realized Marinette had been telling the truth. Lila was a habitual liar, and her own mother was confirming it right in front of them, even referencing specific stories Lila had told them.
Lila reluctantly left the classroom with her mother, dreading this conversation and the after effects to come.
And man the after effects were more brutal than Lila expected. She wasn’t expelled exactly, but she almost wishes she was. But her mother had advocated against expulsion, but not for the sake of her daughter. She did it so her daughter couldn’t pull this again at another school.
Instead, Lila was suspended for the rest of the year and as a result would be held back a year and need to repeat it. When she was allowed back, she would be closely monitored by teachers, to make sure she couldn’t get away with anything or trying to bully any students. And a note was placed in her permanent record, so that if she ever did have to transfer for some reason, her next school would be warned.
As for the rest of the class and Bustier, they didn’t escape unscathed either. Most of the class was suspended as well, just for shorter periods of time. The school was a bit more lenient with them, since their actions were based on manipulation and lies, so they wouldn’t be suspended long enough that they would need to repeat the year, but they would be suspended for a few weeks and when they got back, they would have detention for the remainder of the year.
Finally, Bustier was also given an unpaid suspension. To come back to work, she had to complete several hours of retraining on class management, anti bullying tactics, and a wide range of other subjects. Her class got a long term sub in the meantime.
Mrs Rossi may have been annoyed about bringing that binder, but she is glad she did. It opened her eyes to her daughters continuing lies. She was able to put a stop to it this time, and she would make sure her daughter would never be able to pull this nonsense again.

adrien agreste / chat noir × fem! reader ( Chapter 01 )
tw: a little dark-ish, mention of child akumatizatiom, mention of child murder.
Tumblr media
NIGHT SPIRIT ( CHAPTER 01 )
  [YOUR NAME ー LAST NAME] WAS ALWAYS A OVERLY CAUTIOUS PERSON. With her being a woman, she was exposed to the danger of the streets since young age. Thankfully, she had her Aunt to warn her all about it and advice her on how to keep herself safe. Don't go near dark alleys, always walk in a crowded place, never walk alone at night ( or day ) and absolutely never, ever, leave home without a charged phone, the speed dials clearly and always on display for fast access.
However, Aunt Cosette never adviced her on what to do when you're about to get akumatized. [Name] didn't know much about those evil little parasites, but she knew well enough that when you get possessed by them, it's just a matter of time before you lose control over your mind and body respectively. Controlled by Hawkmoth, the notorious criminal who wants to obtain something called Miraculous by the past heroes of Paris, Ladybug and Chat Noir, the Akuma is something everyone feared when butterflies were on sight.
But, [Name] didn't get possessed.
Two months ago there was a attempt, it made [Name]'s blood boil just by thinking about it. Years ago Paris was left defenceless after the sudden disappearance of Ladybug, who left her partner behind to defend the city, but the attacks have been getting more frequent lately. It was like Hawkmoth was desperate, pulling the last cards on deck ー gambling, she dares to say so.
"Another akuma attack," Aunt Cosette sighed, shaking her head in worry. Her ginger hair was pulled back to a messy bun, with two bangs framing her heart-shaped face. [Name] thought of of her as a utopia beauty, mostly because her reddish hair, button up nose and bright green eyes made her look like a forest fairy. Her Aunt also looked young for her fifty years of age, not because she didn't have wrinkles or crows feet besides her eyes, but because her smile was pearly white and contagious, and her skin glowed from taking good care of herself.
She swears she's going to look that good when she grows up.
"Hm?" [Name] hummed between sipping her preferred coffee, looking up from the phone screen. "How's the situation looking?"
Aunt Cosette shook her head, a frown pulling at her lips. "I'm not going to lie to you... it's bad."
"Like bad, or bad bad?"
The woman rolled her eyes, smiling slightly. "The latter, that poor dear fights with his everything nowadays."
Knowing that poor dear is in fact Chat Noir, [Name] winced a bit in sympathy. It was no secret that the cat hero worked magnificently with his bug partner, a invincible duo many regarded them including herself, but his fits had been plummeting for two years since the abrupt loss of his partner. Not because he grew weaker or because the evilized villains grew stronger, but because apparently Chat does not have the power of creation, which was in actuality Ladybug's power that helped them purify the akuma.
In conclusion, Paris was stuck in a loop where they got a akumatized person every single day for all about two years. Sometimes they even got doubled or tripled, and Chat Noir never caught a break ever since.
However, something changed a year ago. Things have becoming worse and worse for the akumatized people, but the streets of Paris have been peaceful and safe. Chat Noir, while he didn't have the power to purify, he had the power of destruction. Tragedy struck the lives of the victim's families, and therefore the hero's role has been taken much more seriously by the public since then.
No one wants to witness their hero killing the ones who are supposed to save from brainwashing, after all.
In the meantime, Ladybug's disappearance has been regarded with suspicion and contempt. Various of conspiracy theories have been circulating since her abrupt leave, each one more bizarre than the previous. It didn't help that the cat hero has been avoiding to make a statement about his partner's departure either (or her retirement, [Name] likes to think, contrary to the negative opinions from the public).
"Who got unlucky this time?" She asked quietly, the grip on her mug tightening.
Aunt Cosette sighed tiredly, taking off her glasses to rub her forehead with her wrist. That clear sign of distress had [Name]'s spine stiffen, preparing for the worst.
"A six-years-old little girl."
[Name]'s heart dropped, breath hitching in her throat. She shook her head, blinking away the sudden moisture in her eyes and exhaled a stuttering plaintive sigh.
"Merde."
     ──────────────────
It was a usual and average day as [Name] went on with her life. Though she had turned a tad-bit paranoid since the failed akumatization, that didn't stop her from getting her desired macarons from her favourite bakery, Tom and Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie.
She sighed as she saw the familiar entrance upon sight. Lips tugging up to a excited smile, the girl basically ran over to the building, eyes lighting up when she saw the many desserts on the display cabinet. It seems like the bakers were working hard this morning.
Pushing the door open, she heard the now familiar bell jiggling above her head, and immediately her [colour] eyes went to the clerk behind the counter. A young girl stood there, scrolling through her phone; that was of course, before she entered.
Crystal blue eyes connected with her own, and [Name] smiled warmly at her, eyes wrinkling slightly at the edges and giving away to everyone the fact that she laughs a lot.
"Bonjour, mademoiselle!"
"Ah..." The blue-haired girl seemed at loss if words, because the female in front of her looked incredibly pretty. She blushed slightly when she saw the young woman taking off her black glasses, thinking how her eyes, even though a [colour] shade, were gleaming like jewels.
And her fashion sense, it was so good! She obviously keeps up with the trends, but also manages to be of low maintenance. She had a white open-collared shirt, tacked inside a pair of dark brown high waisted tailored pants and wore thin golden accessories. It was so minimalistic yet Marinette couldn't help but admire the beauty in the simplicity.
"I mean, what I -- bonjour, Madame!" The bluenette stuttered slightly, cheeks becoming slowly red.
[Name] couldn't help but think that she was the cutest girl she had ever seen, but it wasn't until she blushed that the similarity with the woman finally clicked. "Mon Dieu, are you Sabine's daughter? You look just like her!"
Marinette smiled at the compliment, to be compared to her mother was something she always liked because Sabine Cheng is known for both her beauty and her baking. "Yes, I am! I didn't know you knew my mom personally, Miss..."
"Oh, it's [Name] [Last Name], it's so nice to finally put a face on the name!" They shook hands, and Marinette went back to the counter to get her order.
"What would you like?"
[Name] hummed, looking at the showcase with furrowed eyebrows as she contemplated what to choose. "Let's see, I would like three chocolate filled croissants, two cream puffs and... quelques macarons? Put thirty on the package, I'm planning to give some to my classmates for the first day of school."
Marinette blinked, mouth parting open. "School?"
"Oui, it's my first day of college!" [Name] beamed. "If I'm not wrong, you're in high school, est-ce correct?"
"Yes!" Marinette nodded vigorously, putting the treats inside the cutest packages they have in store. "What is your major, if you don't mind me asking?"
"I'm majoring in Jewellery Designing," She smiled. "Not very profitable, but it's my passion."
Marinette shook her head, and with the packages in hand she came to the front from around the counter, a sight of which had [Name] try hard not to facially or physically react from surprise.
Because as Marinette came to full view, [Name] could now see the visible limp on her leg, and right at where two feet should have been, a wooden prosthetic leg was on sight.
And all of the sudden, Marinette yelped and started falling, causing [Name]'s heart to drop. Without giving it a second thought, not even caring about the packages with the treats she just bought, the [Last Name] girl immediately darted towards the teen and wrapped her arms around her, stabilizing her body against hers just as the packages went flying up their heads and crushed noisily against the wall.
The blue-haired girl was shaking, short puffs of air escaping her mouth. [Name] started backing towards the chairs with Marinette in her arms, willing the shaking girl to sit down.
"Are you okay?" [Name] breathed out, looking around the shop with worried eyes. "Putain, where is Tom and Sabine?"
Marinette gave out a short laugh at the sudden cursing, and willed her heart to calm down. "They're on a business trip for the next week, they're visiting the Balkan countries. Thank you, and I'm sorry for... for the trouble. I'm not usually this clumsy with this anymore."
[Name] shook her head. "Please don't mention it, let me get you a glass of water."
Marinette opened her mouth to argue, she really didn't want the pity of anyone, but shut it closed when she saw the determined gleam in the young woman's eyes. She watched her as she went behind the counter like she owned the bakery, fetching glasses and crystallised packaged water from the cabinets. It seems like she was more than familiar with the place.
"You're one silly girl, you know that?" [Name] huffed. "You could have given me the bags over showcase, and this wouldn't have happened!"
The young girl pursed her lips to keep herself from smiling, finding the concern the [hair]nette quite endearing, not to mention she fretted just like her Dad did. French people really show their care spontaneously.
Marinette sighed, admitting that she could have done exactly that when something miraculous happened. Her eyes shined neon blue as the young woman in front of her suddenly emitted a red and pink-ish aura, and golden outlines glowed to emphasise her silhouette. A breath hitched on her throat, and the faster beat of her heart had nothing to do with the fall from earlier, but for a entire different reason.
She found her.
       " Miraculous. "
"Here, drink slowly okay?" [Name] offered her the glass of water after she squished some lemon in it.
ᅠᅠᅠ
       " Simply the best. "
"Yes, thank you," Marinette's wide eyes looked up at [colour] ones, "You didn't have to..."
      " Up to the test when things go wrong. "
[Name] shook her head, smiling warmly down at her. "But I wanted to, so don't think too much about it."
      " Miraculous, the luckiest -- ! "
"That's really kind of you." Marinette, for the first time in what seemed like years, smiled so genuinely it almost brought tears to her blue eyes.
"Of course, like I said don't even mention it. I'm sorry for holding you up!" [Name] apologized as she took the packages from the floor, smiling brightly when she saw they were actually tightly sealed. Maybe a little messy on the inside, but still very much edible.
      " The power of love always so strong ! "
"I'm sorry too, you have classes earlier than us," Marinette chuckled as she watched the older girl waving frantically at her with a wide smile, running towards her school in a hurry.
ᅠᅠᅠ
      " Miraculous ! "
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
"Bonne chance, [Name]."

Undisclosed Desires - Friends who Kiss by Kuromori4
Tumblr media
Best version - Colored art HERE:
https://www.tumblr.com/kuromori4/734064420623351808/you-are-the-best-kuromori4-colored-this-im-in?source=share
“I—“ She started, barely audible. “Why’d you do that?” She whispered.
“Do what?” He said, equally as quiet.
“Kiss me.” She answered. Claw noir grinned.
“If you insist, My Lady.”
He kissed her again. This time for sure, she would protest.
The story follows a week right after the events from the special.
The writer's tumbler here:
My vibes while sketching:
youtube
I've been trying for days to finish my MANY sketches from this fanfiction. A very favorite of mine (for obvious reasons). I love melodrama. Heck I'm latina so I grew up watching telenovelas. So this fic showed me the dynamics I love from this pair with tears, and comedy and romance.
The top left sketch is actually a study of their hair. A redraw of a frame from the show because Clawnoir NEEDs urgently a haircut or i'm going to go back and only draw reverse-Adrien.
Now the kiss was stolen from a scene of Anthony and Kate from Bridgerton (I DID mention earlier I like melodrama). And bickering couples, enemies-to-lovers is MY THING. I mean... I'm called Beatrice Benedick for a reason.
I'll be drawing a few more scenes from that fic. I have never tried to draw a crying person before... so I'm interested in that challenge.

“I’ve been dying to meet you, Ladybug”, the boy said, voice vicious and sharp, something in it that Marinette hadn’t heard for a long time.   "Good”, she answered, tone smooth like velvet. “I can make that happen.”

I would love to see snippets from your au!! 👀
Info for the AU!
-I’ve been calling it “Confidant” / “ConfidantAu” and it’s in Chloe’s POV
-Chloe redemption arc
-Chloe knows Adrien is Chat
-Adrien and Chloe found family is a big thing
-Endgame Luka x Chloe x Kagami, or uh, Luklogami (I think that’s it)
((I may edit this ask and add more info later ;) ))
Here are two snips I’m working on for it.
——
First one
——
“I don’t think she’s coming back” Chloe says out loud, hands pressed firmly against her cheeks as she stares blankly at her homework.
She’s been trying for months to get back into the habit of doing it on her own, and having someone around helps, but even as she stares at her half finished set of notes, she can’t find it within herself to return back to them.
Adrien looks up from his work, he’s laying down on his stomach, Plagg resting on the space on his back. He looks up at her before propping himself up on his forearms, pushing his papers to the side. “What brought this on?”
She purses her lips. “I don’t know, I think I’m just doom-spiraling. That’s what you call it right?” She leans back against her bed frame and closes her eyes.
“Do you know what triggered it?” Adriens sitting up now. Plagg rolls off his back and zips to his hair.
and Chloe feels guilt building up in her gut, the same way she does everytime she makes a point to humiliate her classmates, he snuck out to be here and now sitting and he’s listening to her vent. Ugh.
“I uh, I tried talking to Marinette again today” she picks at the seam on her leggings. “It im, it didn’t go well, it hasn’t anytime I’ve tried. She always thinks it’s a joke or I’m making fun at her expense. I can never get a minute to talk to her. I think she’s started to avoid me now” she laughs sadly.
“It just feels like mothe- Audrey follows me everywhere, even when I’m trying to fix the mess I made”
Adrien sighs, pushing up to lean against the bed frame next to her. “I mean, that makes sense though right? You haven’t been exactly nice to Marinette.” He presses his shoulder against hers. “It sucks though, I get that, it took me a while to be able to apologize to her too, and she hasn’t known me for years.
“Do you want me to talk to her? Convince her that you’re being genuine”
Chloe shakes her head, “no, I got myself in this mess, it’s about time I take care of it”
Adrien hums, and wraps an arm around her shoulder. She can feel a purr reverberating from his chest.
She leans forward to rest her in her hands again. “I just wish it was easier.”
——
Second snippet
——
Chloe brushes the nonexistent dust from the lapel of her blazer, leaning to the side to be closer to Kagami. She has somehow managed to convince the fencer to go out on a shopping trip with her.
The girl next to her, like a lot of the others, was still convinced that she was an annoying brat. And she could be, that’s true. But she was trying to expand herself past that, you know?
They pass a thrift store and Chloe feels an old feeling ick crawl up her spine. The place reeks of strong perfume and old fabrics.
She inwardly holds her breath, trying to not seem off put as she gestures Kagami towards the store.
Adrien had said she should try to experience new things, and this was a very new thing. Besides, Kagami’s mother probably didn’t want her to be there either, which made it slightly more appealing to the blonde.
Kagami raises a brow, expression a curious neutral as they enter the building. “I didn’t think you were into this sort of thing, Chloe. Seems like,” Kagami takes a cardigan in between her fingers, rubbing the fabric against her skin, “it’s something you would be against”
Chloe huffs, walking towards a rack of clothes labeled ‘prom’. “It is, but I’m trying to get into trying new things, and for as much as I dislike these places, I’ve never actually been to one.
“I don’t know if you’ve been to one either, so I figured, why not, right?” Chloe finds herself going on, so she bites her tongue.
Out of the corner of her eye, Chloe thinks she sees the other girl smile. And carefully cataloged the moment as a win in her book.
“I have not been to a place like this” Kagami admits. “It’s an interesting place.” Kagami has another piece of fabric in her hands, a bright red blazer with gold trim and teal accents, Chloe thinks it suits her.
She snaps out of her thoughts when Kagami catches her eye, and starts mindlessly looking at the dresses in front of her.
They aren’t as bad as she thought. Mostly just new or rarely used items.
She finds a bluff dress with golden trim around the sleeves and neckline and holds it up against her.
“I think that would look very good on you” Kagami says from behind her and Chloe almost jumps out of her skin.
“You think?” Chloe says with a carefully crafted smile, red burning onto her cheeks, and vaguely she’s glad for the large amount of makeup she had on.
“I do” Kagami says honestly, before looking to her side. Do you think they have a dressing room here? I would like to see you try it on.”
Chloe flushes again, looking around as well, before spotting a small line of stalls against the far wall. “I think so, but if I try it on, you have to try on the blazer, it’s definitely your color.” She smirks, pushing her hair behind her shoulder.
Kagami gives a small smile back, turning to grab the blazer off the hanger. “Sounds like a fair deal.”
——
These are both going to be scenes in the full fic but for now they’re just oneshots/one offs
Feel free to ask any questions :)

MLB Salt Fic prompt
"You want petty? I'll show you petty."
Where after Marinette fails to reveal Lila as a liar, she is scorned by every member of the class, even Adrien waits until they all leave to give his "disappointed" speech and to call her petty. She responds with the above quote and walks out ready to rain hell on her class
Marinette uses every one of her connections, Jagged Stone, Clara Nightingale, the Waynes, Clark and Lois Kent and beyond and takes to social media
Post after post of what Lila has claimed, backed by proof of this being impossible, entire threads of what each member of the class did in "retribution" , the class is scorned by their idols, meanwhile Ladybug goes on live with Nadja
(Adrien, as Chat sees LB while the consequences come crashing down on the class, he pleads with her to try and save the class, to make everything "right" again only to be told off and have the ring taken right off his finger
Having just taken the Black Cat Ring back from Adrien, she publicly announces that none of her temp heroes will ever receive any Miraculous ever again
Shadowmoth tries to take advantage of this by akumatizing the entire class into The Akuma Class, a horrific blob monster with all their previous powers
But LB distributes the Miraculous to heroes she has been in contact with, The BatFamily, Young Justice, and assorted JL members
They take down the Class Akuma hard
And thats what happens when Marinette is truly petty
Marinette was on the ground, after having been shoved around by her classmates. Lila had been filling their heads with lies for weeks about how Marinette had been bullying her and hurting her after school. She had lit the match and the class had been taking revenge against their 'friend's' bully. As a last ditch effort, while they all ripped her homework, destroyed her belongings and sketchbook, and pushed her around, she tried to reveal Lila again. She had proof and an alibi for the most recent accusations. She yelled that she hadn't been out that night. She had even been babysitting for Alya and Nino so they could go on a date, but that seems to have slipped their minds in their rage.
When they were done, they left Marinette there bruised and surrounded by her destroyed things. She was numb, not quite processing what had just happened. When Adrien was still standing there, Marinette clung to hope that maybe now he would say it was time to do something. After all, Lila had just gotten her attacked. But her last tiny hope was snuffed out when Adrien went on and on about how disappointed he was that she had tried to reveal Lila again. Disappointed that she hadn't sat there quietly and let them hurt her. Marinette could hardly believe it, but she supposed that was more in character for him. All he cared about was the limited freedom his father gave him and standing up to Lila, even to help a friend, would endanger that so he wouldn't do it. Just as he finished his tirade, Marinette felt something inside her snap. "I am so disappointed in you Marinette. They would have stopped eventually, but now you have turned them all against you. If you had just stayed quiet, we could have all stayed friends. But you were too petty." Marinette stood up quickly, glaring at Adrien. "You want petty, Adrien? I'll show you petty."
Marinette was fuming. They had all betrayed her for some pretty words and promises that would never come. Meanwhile, Marinette could and would have easily helped them. But now they had burned that bridge, and Marinette would rain hell fire down on them. And she would be able to do it in a single night.
She jumped online and started posting on every social media she had. Post after post of not only Lila and her lies (with the proof that they were only lies), but also what the class had done to her. Photos of the bruises from the altercation. Of her destroyed homework and property. She showed everything, but that was only the start of her plan. If they thought that was mean, wait until they saw what happens next.
She also showed her parents what had happened, and they had initially wanted to press charges and have all of the class arrested for assault. And while Marinette was angry, she didn't want to send them to prison. Not yet anyway. They attack her again, and that could change. She convinced her parents to sue for damages instead. That way they are still held accountable, but they don't go to prison. Even as angry as she is, there is still a tiny seed of compassion in her for her old friends. But that was where the compassion ended.
She went back to her room and opened her laptop again, seeing that her posts and threads were quickly picking up steam and going viral. She could see her classmates trying to defend themselves in the comments, but it wasn't going well for them. Now on to the next phase of her plan. Her classmates had applied to many different internships and summer jobs with their top idols and most had gotten the positions. Lila had taken responsibility, saying she had called in some favors with her famous friends.
But the reality? The reality was that despite everything, when Marinette heard about the applications, she had reached out to her contacts and given glowing recommendations for her classmates. That is what had gotten them the internships and jobs. Not Lila, Marinette. And now, if Marinette could give that too them, she could take it away. She called everyone. Jagged, Clara, the Wayne family, Lois Lane, and many others from around the world. She told the story of what had happened several times that night, but it worked. They all agreed to pull her classmates from the accepted applicants and reject them.
And while she was talking with Bruce Wayne, she called in another favor. This time in regards to his more covert activities. She had a feeling that this plan of hers may result in an akuma, or more likely multiple akumas. Obviously she couldn't use any of her old temp. heroes if this happened. She had already been training with the Justice League and the covert team known as Young Justice. Several members of the two teams had been selected as new miraculous holders and were ready to come if needed. She hadn't thought she would need to use that offer until it was time to defeat Hawkmoth, but she called in the favor anyway. Bruce agreed and soon there would be a small team of heroes ready and waiting for the fallout that was sure to come.
For the final stage of her plan, she decided to reveal not just to the class, but to the whole city, that Lila had been lying. She went on the official Ladybug twitter account, and sent a message to Nadja asking for a live interview that very night. Nadja got back to her within a minute and agreed to have the interview in an hour. Ladybug wanting an interview was big news and the TV station was happy to oblige.
As Marinette made her way to the TV station as Ladybug, all over the city, her classmates were panicking. They had seen the posts and initially thought nothing of it. Who cared what Marinette thought, and then they really read the posts and saw the proof of Lila's lies and began to grow concerned. But they would apologize to Marinette and this would all blow over, it was just a single thread on Marinette's page, it wouldn't be a big deal. That was until they saw the posts going viral. People were commenting and sharing it everywhere, calling out the class on their behavior. And these weren't just random people call them out. These were big names in every major industry. Which just made it go more viral.
The class tried defending themselves in the comments, but no one was listening to them, or taking their sides. As far as people were concerned, they were horrible people who attacked Marinette for no good reason. Just as their panic began to reach their peak, the rejections started coming in. Programs and internships that had accepted them only weeks ago, now sent them letters rejecting them. The letters said that the person who had recommended them for the positions had come back and retracted their recommendations because they had attacked the person who gave the recommendations.
With growing horror, the class realized that not only was Lila a liar, but that Marinette had been the one with the connections that got them these positions. And she had taken no credit, letting Lila claim that it was her doing. And now everything was falling apart all around them. Adrien watched as the Gabriel brand stock tanked and his fans turned on him quickly for not defending Marinette. He hadn't thought Marinette had this kind of pull. But in a single evening she had ruined everything for the class. As if things couldn't get worse for them, everyone's TVs and phones that had been watching all of this unfold were now playing a special interview from Ladybug.
Adrien and the class watched in horror as Ladybug went on the record, clearly stating that not only had Lila lied about being her friend, but was also akumatized several times and was suspected of being a willing accomplice to Hawkmoth. Adrien knew he had to do something. This wasn't right, and LB should know that. But he could get her to stop. To change her mind, retract her statement about Lila being a liar, and get everything back to normal. He would have to throw Marinette under the bus on live TV to do that, but it was her own fault and he would try to make it up to her later. She would forgive him, and realize she was in the wrong eventually. So he transformed into Chat and raced to the station.
He got there just as they were wrapping up a commercial break. They were just about to go back on the air when he arrived. He rushed up to Ladybug and begged her to make things right. "I don't know what Marinette told you, but she must be exaggerating. This is too much and you know that. But there is still time to make this right again. We just have to tell everyone that what Mrs. Bustier's class did was justified and Marinette was the real aggressor. Then everything will go back to normal." He had expected Ladybug to agree, but instead she simply glared at him, before grabbing his arm and yanking off the ring.
Adrien was stunned and yelled at her, demanding the ring back. The TV crew stood in shock, forgetting to get prepared to return to air. "Adrien. Of course it was you, I should have known. No I will not say any such thing. I'm not a coward like you. I know when to stand up and say enough. That class made their bed and now they have to lie in it. They don't get to torment people and expect everything to just go away. Now they will suffer the consequences of their own actions."
With that, Ladybug went back to the interview, which just returned to air. Nadja was still stunned, so Ladybug took the lead. "I have just retrieved the Black Cat Miraculous from Chat Noir. He was unworthy of wearing it and has since been retired. And this goes for all of the temporary heroes as well. They are all retired. If I can't trust them to have my back, then they don't deserve a miraculous. They will never again wear a miraculous." She of course didn't mean Luka or Kagami, they hadn't done anything. She would reach out to them individually to tell them in person, and help them come up with new hero personas so no one was suspicious.
Just as the interview ended, the akuma alarm went off. Just as she expected. Ladybug left the stunned studio crew behind and rushed outside where she saw a grotesque amalgamation of her classmates' akuma forms. Hawkmoth had sensed the growing despair from them all, from Lila being revealed to the city, and the class' world falling apart, and took advantage of the situation. For once, he felt grateful to Ladybug, sure her announcement had something to do with this. Not that he could make out much, with so many minds under his control at once. But one thing was clear. They wanted to go after Marinette. She caused all of this tonight, and they were placing their anger on her. And Hawkmoth would be happy to oblige.
But it wouldn't last long. Thanks to Marinette planning ahead, she went to where the zeta tube let out and found her back up there. Several heroes like Aqualad, Nightwing, Super Boy, Miss Martian, Beast Boy, and many others all stood waiting. She gave them all a miraculous that they had practiced with previously, and gave Aqualad the Black Cat miraculous, thinking his cool headed nature would help keep its destructive power in check. With her new team by her side, they faced the villain they decided just to call Amalgamation.
Within a few minutes, they had defeated the group akuma. When she worked with a real, practiced, team of heroes, it wasn't nearly as hard to do. She should have done this ages ago. The class was deakumatized and Ladybug didn't give them the time of day. She and her team simply left. She retrieved the miraculous and the heroes went home. Meanwhile, Marinette got to watch the fallout. The class was in shambles and desperately tried to apologize to Marinette the next day, but she didn't listen to any of them. They had lost out on jobs, internships, their futures in their favorite industries were in question, and they got slapped with a hefty lawsuit for the damage they had done to Marinette's property the day before. Everything was ruined. They had wanted petty? Well they got it. And this is what happens when Marinette gets petty.

"we like each other" - lukadrien oneshot
(this is a lot longer than i meant for it to be but i hope you enjoy)
adrien! wait!" luka had no idea how he got into this situation. one minute he was talking with his sister on their houseboat and the next he was chasing his friend down the streets of paris.
adrien seemed to pick up speed with every few seconds that passed. oh how luka wished he participated in a sport of some kind.
"please, adrien! stop! please!" luka yelled in his friend's direction. he tried his hardest to catch up but eventually became too winded to continue. adrien turned a corner and disappeared behind a random store. luka slowed to a stop and tried to catch his breath.
what was going on? why was adrien running away? luka tried to think back to the conversation he had with juleka, in case adrien heard something that sent him on his way. nothing came to mind.
he pulled out his phone and shot a few texts to adrien, telling him that he was sorry for whatever adrien heard and that he hoped he would tell him what he and juleka did wrong.
he retraced his steps back to his boat. once he got on deck, he ignored his mom calling out to him for dinner prep and made his way to his room. he plopped down on his bed and tried to find answer which posed to be very hard without knowing adrien's thoughts.
luka snatched up his guitar and attempted to strum his way through the problem. he didn't know why it bothered him so much. obviously, adrien didn't want anyone to know what was bothering him but luka couldn't help but think that it was all his fault.
ten minutes later, a tap on his window caused luka to jump slightly. he snapped his head towards the sound to see cat noir peering in.
"you gonna let me in, guitar boy?" the cat-themed hero joked. luka stood and opened the window, still confused as to what was going on. cat noir leaped through the small circle gracefully and landed on the bedroom floor in a cat-like pose.
"what are you doing here, cat noir?" luka's voice was low and barely above a whisper. cat noir stood up and shrugged.
"i don't really know. i heard you were the one to go to when stricken with turmoil,"
"i guess i am," luka chuckled. he could've sworn he'd seen a slight blush form on the hero's face but he decided to chalk it up to the odd lighting in his room. "what seems to be the problem, cat noir?"
"well," cat noir started, "i heard...ladybug and...rena rouge, yeah that's right, talking about me, possibly maybe, and i'm just feeling insecure."
luka raised his eyebrow at the story. it didn't sound like cat noir was saying something that really happened. he noticed the way he seemed to search for his words even more than a normal person stumbling over their words would.
he let it go, "and what did they say?"
"i don't really know, they didn't say my name at all, but i just felt like their words were towards me."
"and how did you hear these words?" luka furrowed his eyebrows in deep thought.
"i, um, you're not gonna judge me right?" the hero's voice sounded small and luka wanted to reach out and physically comfort him but felt that might be too much.
"of course not."
"i was eavesdropping," cat noir seemed to move farther and farther from luka, hunching his shoulders to hide.
"maybe, they knew you were listening and tried to pull a prank on you."
"well that's just mean! i mean it would explain why you-" the hero stopped himself and frantically moved his eyes around. "i mean they-"
luka tried not to laugh, "adrien, i know it's you. you can detransform now."
"what! no! i'm not that pretty model boy, i'm just an average guy who really has to go," cat noir tried to scurry past luka but he blocked the window.
"adrien, it's okay, no one has to know that i know. but please i need to talk to you," luka reached out to grab cat noir's, who he was sure was adrien, hands. "ladybug and rena rouge are supposed to be me and jul right?"
cat noir avoided luka's eyes, "claws in," a nearly blinding neon green light filled luka's room. luka blinked away the spots in his eyes and saw his friend who he had just chased a half hour ago.
"adrien...talk to me."
"can we- can we sit?" luka nodded and moved his guitar off his bed. he patted the sheet covered mattress and sat down. adrien sat and began to fiddle with the ends of a blanket luka had.
"tell me what's going on, adrien."
"i heard you and juleka talking earlier," adrien tried to not let his emotions show but failed almost miserably.
luka knew it was about that! he kept his thoughts to himself as it didn't seem like the time. he was also confused. they never mentioned adrien by name, they didn't even allude to him. how could he have taken it so personally?
"but-"
adrien cut luka off, "wait, let me finish, or i'll never be able to say it."
luka pressed his lips in a line and urged adrien to continue.
"yesterday, i asked juleka to ask you if you liked anybody. she told me she would try her best and to come over today to hang out so she could talk with me. i got here a little too early and...heard you say no."
"what?" luka was confused.
"i was so heartbroken that i dropped the food i had brought for us all to share."
luka remembered hearing something fall outside but was too focused on the jean covered legs running away.
"i ran away so you wouldn't see me but somehow you caught up with me. i kept running because...i couldn't look you in the eye," luka could hear adrien's voice get weak with his held-back tears. "it sounds so stupid when i say it out loud."
luka grabbed adrien's free hand and searched for his eyes, "adrien, it's not stupid. i'm sorry you had to hear that," luka inhaled deeply and reached up to caress adrien's cheek, "especially because it wasn't true."
adrien's eyes widened, "i don't understand."
"adrien, please forgive me, i didn't tell juleka the truth. i do have a crush on someone," luka wiped away a stray tear that fell from adrien's eye.
"luka...what are you saying right now?" adrien's eyes seemed to bore into luka's. luka wasn't even sure if he had seen adrien blink since reciting his side of the story.
"i like you, adrien. i really like you. i'm so sorry that you thought i didn't," luka's hold on adrien's cheek never let up. adrien even reached up to keep luka's hand in place.
"really? you like...me? why?"
"why wouldn't i?" luka slightly frowned.
"i don't know. i mean, we've never really spent that much time together. i assumed you only thought of me as an acquaintance at best." adrien broke eye contact, he couldn't bring himself to look at luka anymore.
"adrien, none of that stopped you from liking me," luka stated, "so why would it stop me from liking you?"
adrien kept his eyes down.
"hm? can you answer that?"
"no, no i can't," adrien's voice went back to being small and it broke luka's heart. luka guided adrien's head up so he could look back into his eyes.
"we like each other, adrien, and neither of us can fully explain it. that's perfectly okay."
adrien's voice was full again, "we like each other."
luka tried not to let out a chuckle, "yes, that's what i just said."
"no, i mean, i didn't have to be scared. you like me as much i like you. well i probably like you a little more, i feel my feelings very aggressively," adrien started to ramble. luka had to admit, it was cute.
"i can see that," luka finally let out a small laugh.
"i'm sorry about the whole running away thing. i didn't even know i could run that fast without my miraculous-"
adrien's eyes widened and luka waited to hear what he would say.
"you know about my miraculous!" adrien whisper-yelled, he got off of the bed. he started to pace around luka's room.
"what miraculous?" luka attempted to say cooly but adrien missed the joke entirely.
"ya know, the one that transforms me into a cat man! the one that i wasn't supposed to tell anyone about! the one that gives me super fast reflexes! the one that gives me stupid cat ears- oh." luka half smiled as adrien finally got it.
"i meant what i said earlier, no one has to know that i, luka couffaine, know the identity of french hero, cat noir." luka put on a dramatic voice for the last bit, much to adrien's unamusement.
"you're not funny."
"sure i am, but i'm also one hundred percent serious. i'm not gonna tell anyone, i promise. can you sit down now?" luka extended his hand out to adrien who sighed and took hold of it.
luka pulled adrien towards him, causing adrien to yelp. adrien was pulled onto a laughing and leaned back luka.
"ow." adrien jokingly said.
luka slightly scoffed, "that didn't hurt and you know it."
"no, it didn't. i'm just dramatic."
"yeah, i know, it's very noticeable."
"you're very blunt at times, ya know that, right?" adrien shimmied into a more comfortable position, his back against the wall and his legs on top of luka's.
"and yet, you like me, so who's really the problem here?"
"both of us," they both laughed and any awkward or scared tension there was before seemed to quickly dissipate.
"ya know, the cat ears aren't that stupid. i actually kinda li-" Luka was interrupted by a hand covering his mouth.
"don't you dare finish that sentence," adrien tried to say sternly but luka knew he was all bark no bite, in the most adorable way possible.
so he licked adrien's hand. adrien dramatically screamed and wiped off his hand on luka's shoulder. luka erupted in melodic laughter, which in a way, made adrien feel like everything was gonna be all right.
(any notes or criticisms or praises that you guys have, i'd be more than glad to hear about. ofc be respectful and understanding, this is the first fanfiction that i've literally ever posted on anything so ofc it's not going to be perfect. but i really hope you liked it)

Ok y’all, so I’m in the process of writing a pv miraculous fic right now. And it’s basically just. An amalgamation of every single cool concept that the writers of miraculous scrapped. The most niche ones that honestly might not have been actually canon at any point, but were fan theories that people ran with from concept art. Cause honestly that’s so much fun. I remember people talking about a speculated possible concept from the art book that pv Adrien had a bad limp in his leg and used a cane, and I RAN with that for my fic. Because that’s so cool?? Adrien/Felix/whatever you want to call his pv version having to use a cane as a support as a civilian, but having his physical ailments healed temporarily while he’s Chat Noir. Honestly if that was an actual concept it’s a little sad that they scrapped it. It’s super rad imo—but ig since Adrien is a senti-kid they’d want him to be physically perfect? Idk lol.

Bonus: make a poll for your followers to vote on which top 5 WIP they are most excited to see an update on!
Then tag 10 writer friends!
Five Titles (I don’t have very many fics that I update so these are all complete wips/ideas lol)
La Llorona - one shot about emilie trying to drown adrien when he was little :)
I Can’t Help (But Wonder Where You Are) - poem type fic abt marinette thinking about where chat might be at any given moment
Swimming in the Rain - established marichat one shot about swimming when it’s raining (this is a remake of an old fic I wrote)
Seating Arrangement - mariblanc au adrinette get sat together due to the new seating arrangement. marinette is seething. adrien is enjoying marinettes seething.
Bug Breath - chat blanc might have eaten his lady. oopsie
Upcoming
I’ve never really written Emilie before so I’m excited to figure out how to portray her! definitely looking forward to writing her being a really manipulative/gaslighting mom to Adrien while being the ‘loving’ or ‘affectionate’ parent compared to Gabe. I just love the idea of Emilie being an equally horrible parent but in a much different way.
Looking forward to writing a fic in a poem style! Never done that before so i’m interested in seeing if it fits me
Definitely most looking forward to just rewriting an old fic! My writing has changed a lot so it’s gonna be fun to see the difference (when I actually yk. write it)
So excited to write Adrien being the brattiest mf solely to bother Marinette <3
Honestly. Cannibalism as a form of unhealthy love/obsession is just pure gold in writing. I have so much fun writing kinda nitty gritty bloody scenes + I have mad brain worms for chat blanc so I think it’ll be fun!
Poll
I think everyone I know of has been tagged, so if you see this feel free to consider yourself tagged <3
