What don’t have what now

[aprilma3]

So I was really tired right

And I kinda in my half awake state thought of the fic I was trying to look for but just decided to write it out since I couldn’t find one like it. So here’s the fic I really wanted to read because I’m a masochist and I love angst

Mari is drunk and annoyed, self reflects on how fucking stupid it is to pine after such an oblivious guy for over three years. Like does she even know him other than what she believes him to be.

Understands it’s not his fault since it’s his feelings and she can’t get mad at him just at herself. Oh and the ‘she’s just a friend’ she can get mad at that and she will. Literally smashes the pedestal she’s shoved him on and leaves herself a message on a post it

“Fuck mr she’s just a friend and be that fucking friend”

Mari understands her crush is too much of just a crush, understands she actually has to get to know the guy to feel like she can truly love him.

This leads to a hungover weekend of her just reflecting and going over this, ultimately her suffering heartbreak playing depressing music and basically breaking up with her previous self to be a fucking butterfly.

She’s now a lil worried about facing him on Monday just incase she bursts into tears but she goes fuck it I’ll just ignore his presence. Yeet

Mari, to ninny’s and alya’s surprise, manages to speak to Adrien normally since she’s managed to purge herself of her previous obsessive nature.

Alyas like holy shit you fucking mature ass bitch I Stan. Ninny’s like holy shit I’m so proud love u loads nette.

Adrien on the other hand is confused on where his cute little stuttering friend is. Marinette is back to acting indifferent towards him, as if she is just a friendly acquaintance again. He thought her little quirks and stutters were normal since that’s all he saw of her.

NEWSFLASH IT AINT BRO.

Adrien then basically starts to realise she’s kind of ignoring him, and actively going out of her way to not be alone with him.

Mari on the other hand is feeling fucking amazing, she finally feels independent and as if she can do fucking anything. And then Luka is like yo and she’s back into crush town

SIKE

My baby girl is mature as heck now, understands that to truly like the guy she has to be friends with him first to get to know the guy. And then she finally realises she’s already pretty close friends with Luka and it just works. Something she’s never been able to do with Adrien.

Speaking of the banana boye. He’s having like a little crisis over here, my lil jealous dude tryna understand wtf is happening. He tries his hardest to see Marinette by even going as far as inviting her over or to do shit most days of the week.

She declines most of the time preoccupied with her job at the bakery alya or now Luka.

Adrien finds out about Luka through a picture on marinettes Instagram because modern relationships amirite.

Side note - Luka and Mari aren’t together they’re just testing the waters seeing what’s happenin

Adriens finally facing the ‘it’s just a friend’ consequences and realises fuck I’m too late

Adrien doing the whole drunk thing, this time actually doing the opposite of Mari and setting himself the aim of making the girl he realised he has a crush on as happy as possible.

Remember this time he doesn’t see LB in her so he’s not putting her against another gal, nor does he truly know how she acts. (Idk why I wrote it like I’ve written a fan fic about this before but I’ll roll with it)

Then he sees her whilst as chat due to her running out at an awkward time and nearly being punted into the Seine but quick ass reflexes saved her ass. Adrien is like wtf she is literally an everyday LB.

He starts to see her act like this all the time and actually falls in love, that cute lil pure love where he’s like if I can’t have you im sure as hell gonna make you happy even if it’s with another guy.

Issue with Luka, he’s going to the US for band shit and Mari is like well at least we tried she doesn’t wanna leave and is like we didn’t even date I met you like three times Yeet. (KEEP IT PG MAE DONT DO IT)

Mari obviously a lil heartbroken but not much compared to that drunk night TM

She gets over it with the help of her new best guy friend Adrien being there for her and cheering her up

Like he thought she was in-love with Luka

She wasn’t

She finally is like shit I love this

I love this Adrien

The true Adrien and is like holy shit I actually love him

This isn’t superficial or fake it’s true

She’s shit scared to tell because who wouldn’t be

Adrien is like she needs more time

So time passes a lil bit year 1 of uni about to start and Adrien is trying to spend as much time with the 4.

Story carries on but it’s the awkward they both like each other and it’s so obvious to everyone but themselves but they don’t think the other likes them back. So ANGST TM

They decide to go on holiday the 4 of them before uni starts.

They go to Italy bc why not just chill around Rome for a bit.

Adrien is like fuck this I gotta tell her I’ve waited long enough

Really big angsty reveal, Mari tells him about the night TM and Adrien tells her about his.

They cry bc Adrien is a cry baby confirmed because ofc he is he’s starved from any love because of mr cane up his ass Gabriel Agreste

Alya sees them next morning together (like they cried themselves to sleep (mood) together idk relationships n shit) because she went in early to get Mari for brekkie and is like holy shit my otp

Mari is like fuck it yeah I’m with my dream dude share it I’m not ashamed.

All is happy then they realise they gotta go back to Paris and the whole akuma shit.

LB makes a ref a while later on that chat links to Mari and is like head fuck wtf

Mari makes a few links with chat and banana boye, they both probs did since they had been dating for a while also both of them are actually smart they’re just idiots

Adrien figures it out first and is like fuck yeah I beat you. And is like I saw this coming ngl it’s so obvious now

Samezies with Mari and it’s all gd in the hood

So if anyone knows of a fic like this orrrr is like 30040403x more talented than me and can turn this garbled shit into an actual fic be my guest just tell me bc I would read the shit outta that

WHAT IN AKUMATIZATION

[aprilma3]

Plagg after realising he’s left adrien alone and having a real life nightmare 

[aprilma3]

had a drunk stream last night, and did some ml doods that featured some very… interesting kwamis

[aprilma3]

hear me out.

i’ve read so many fluffy fics where chat noir reveals his identity to marinette first…and i totally get the “i’m so glad it’s you” thing…

…but wouldn’t marinette be like, hella mad?

you’ve seen that girl. she is a five foot ball of cunning and rage. if her partner revealed his identity to some random chick (even if it was her) she’d be fucking pissed.

Adrien: Claws in.

-a flash of brilliant green light-

Marinette:…

Adrien: …you’re disappointed, aren’t—

Marinette: —Chat Noir? You are an absolute. FUCKING. M O R O N.

Adrien: Ex-excuse me?

Marinette: -hitting him with a pillow- ‘Oh, Marinette! You’re my best friend! I trust you so much! Let me just REVEAL MY CIVILIAN IDENTITY TO YOU TO PROVE HOW GREAT OUR FRIENDSHIP IS!!! WHO CARES THAT YOU MIGHT BE HAWKMOTH???’ You are SO lucky I’m Ladybug, you reckless little—

Adrien: -wait, you’re Ladybug?

Marinette: THAT IS NOT THE POINT OF THIS CONVERSATION!!!

[aprilma3]

ok but thank the lord ladybug isn’t the one in love with chat bc if mari acted like she does around adrien paris would be fucked

[aprilma3]

finally accepted the fact that i’m not going to finish this project from over a year ago. regardless, i hope you enjoy this attempt at reanimating the rain scene!

Carapace: A Brief Summary

[aprilma3]

Kwami Swap AU

Yup. My take on one of the most popular prompts out there. :D

MARINETTE

     • Marinette, when she becomes the next Black Cat, doesn’t really take into consideration her hero name or her outfit. In fact, the only thing that’s going through her mind in terms of a black cat is one of those void cats— just a quiet, black blob with big eyes full of wonder and curiosity. 

     • Her costume reflects that, as well as the instincts she gets from it. She ends up being the mostly silent hero, who only really talks to her Beetle. She’s ridiculously good at stealth, but she’s not really fantastic at loud distractions. She learned later on, however, that she can steal an akuma’s attention by terrifying it. If she keeps blending into the shadows and popping out, like she’s stalking them, it seems to seriously unnerve them.

     • Her relationship with Plagg is, to put it simply, great. He doesn’t bug her for expensive cheeses, because he knows that she’s not a rich kid and her parents would notice immediately, but she still likes to surprise him every once and a while by using whatever money she scrounged up from commissions and getting him fancy camembert. Usually he’ll settle for cheesy bread, cheese danishes, and cheddar snacks. 

     • Marinette and Plagg are both mischievous beings. She comes up with wild ideas, and he full-heartedly supports them. She sort of becomes the school’s resident schemer. It’s been a long time since Plagg last had such a troublemaker for a chosen, so he’s really enjoying himself this time around. Plus, she gives him head scratches and cuddles. This is the life.

     • Marinette’s superhero alter ego has many different names in the public, because she’s never bothered to come up with one of her own, and she doesn’t deal with media really well. In fact, she just straight up tells Beetle her real name on the first meeting— Plagg hadn’t told her much about secret identities. He probably forgot, too focused on how exceptional her parents’ cheesy bread was.

     • She tells Beetle to just call her Chaton. The public sees that as more of a pet name, so they make attempts at other names for her, but she doesn’t really like any of them. 

     • She has a bit of a crush on the Beetle, but she stays quiet most of the time, so really, there’s no way of him knowing. She doesn’t flirt, and since she’s on the job, she never allows herself to stutter. The most she does is blush, but that just makes her seem a bit shy. She’s not.

ADRIEN

     • Adrien, when he becomes the next Beetle, is wholly prepared. He has a whole costume planned out, with a cool jacket, gloves, a black mask with white spots on either side, everything you can think of. Hell, he even has the transformation sequence down to a pat. 

     • Adrien’s eager, maybe a bit too eager, and ends up getting a lesson on patience pretty early in the game. He’s not meant for close combat— his abilities are more long-ranged, and he has to sit back and truly think about how he’s supposed to use his Lucky Charms. The start is rough, because him and Chaton didn’t really have any way of keeping the akuma off their backs long enough to formulate any solid plans. However, later on, things start to go better for them, and he at that point had already figured out how to think quickly whilst under pressure.

     • His relationship with Tikki is rather sweet. She has an open opinion about his father, and takes it upon herself to pretty much properly raise him. She smothers him in affection, gives him as much advice as she can provide, and listens to his heart troubles when he needs to vent. In return, Adrien likes to spoil her with the best sweets he can find. 

     • Adrien and Tikki both have a huge thing for sweets. Particularly the ones from the Dupain-Cheng patisserie. (Tikki likes to tease him about it though, so he only ever goes there on special occasions.) The school pretty much shoves any sort of snack they can find into Adrien’s arms, because everyone knows about his ginormous sweet tooth, and everyone thinks he deserves as much as he wants. Marinette brings him a croissant every morning, and Nino always hands him a chocolate bar during lunch. He usually gives the chocolate bar to Tikki, but those croissants? All his. Back off.

     • Adrien already prepared to call himself the Beetle before he even left his room, the day he got his Miraculous. It took him a while to actually announce that to the public, however, since the first few fights he had next to no time to stick around and answer questions— he spent way too long trying to figure out how to use his Lucky Charm. Eventually he was able to tell friendly teenage reporter, Alya, that he calls himself Beetle. It blew up rather quickly. Unfortunately, he couldn’t tell anyone what his Chaton’s name was. He just calls her Chaton. 

     • He’s okay with the public disregarding his pet name and trying to figure out their own name for her. After all, he feels like he should be the only one who gets to call her that. 

     • Adrien has a ridiculous crush on Marinette, and yes, that crush extends to his friendly kitty, because he pretty much knew her identity from the beginning. She had just blurted it out, apparently not being informed about the whole secret identity thing. Begrudgingly, he didn’t want to disappoint Tikki, so he kept his mouth shut about his own identity. Marinette never seemed to mind, thankfully.

MIXED HEADCANONS

     • Adrien and Marinette quickly become good friends after the gum incident. Marinette was a bit embarrassed in the beginning, apologetic for having judged him so quickly. Adrien was super awkward at first, especially because of the sudden realisation that this girl is his superhero partner and he isn’t allowed to say anything about it.

     • Alya ships MariBeetle and has absolutely no shame about it, even though she does feel a little sorry for Adrien. After all, that poor boy has a crush the size of a skyscraper on Marinette, but… Well, best friends come first! And besides, she’s SEEN the Beetle give Marinette The Look™, which means there’s a legitimate possibility of it happening! At least Adrien also has a crush on the city’s feline hero. After all, once she makes MariBeetle happen, she’ll have the connections to make AdriChaton happen. 

     • Nino is also aware of that Look™ that the Beetle had given Marinette, but he’s quite frankly totally against MariBeetle. It’s the only thing he and Alya wholeheartedly disagree on. First of all, he has to look out for his bro, and he knows Adrien has a thing for Marinette. Secondly, there’s no way he’d ever let Marinette get swept up in that superhero business! She’s like his little sister, he doesn’t want her getting hurt or targeted by Hawkmoth!

     • Literally no one knows about Marinette’s massive crush on the Beetle except, possibly, Alya, and even Alya’s not 100% sure about it. Marinette keeps her secrets locked up tight, and if it were any other boy, she’d probably gush about them all the time, but… It’s a little weird for people to think that she’s just some fangirl, when in actuality, that’s not the case. She doesn’t want people she knows to dumb down her infatuation to some simple celebrity crush thing. That’s not the case at all.

     • Adrien’s, like, secretly on board with more than half of the wild plans Alya has in order to set Marinette up with the Beetle, but he can’t say it because it would look super suspicious of him to suddenly be okay with Marinette dating some other dude. It’s unfortunate that Marinette quickly and calmly shoots down every idea, using perfectly logical points.

     • Adrien has spotted Marinette and her Kwami once, and it was… possibly the cutest exchange he’s ever seen in his life. Plagg kind of acts like a snot, but it’s perfectly clear that he has a major soft spot for his chosen. He called Chloe a very colourful name, then started purring and cuddling up into Marinette’s cheek. Tikki was fighting to keep her giggling in at the sight. She later tells Adrien that Plagg very rarely acts so openly affectionate.

     • Marinette doesn’t put up posters in her room. She’s seriously not in the mood to seem like a fangirl, and since Alya’s in her room all the time, she really can’t put any even if she wanted to. She doesn’t want Alya to know. She does have her phone screensaver as the Beetle and his Chaton, though.

     • Tom and Sabine absolutely know that the strapping young man who sometimes visits the bakery has the biggest crush on their daughter ever, and they’re, quite frankly, on his side. Or, well, Tom is. Sabine is a little scary and makes a point to give him a hidden threat every time he visits, basically informing him that if he hurts Marinette, he’ll be uppercutted directly into the sun.

     • There’s a lot of pranks and stuff that happens at the school, but the problem is that literally no one knows who’s pulling it. Well, that isn’t true, pretty much everyone high-key expects that it’s Marinette, but the problem is that there’s no proof. No one can ever catch her in the act, and no matter how much searching you do, you won’t find your stolen items on her or in any of her belongings. She’s a ninja.

Anyone is welcomed and encouraged to add their own thoughts! Hope you liked this, it was fun to write. My mother and I caught a stray kitten recently and I’ve just been brimming with happiness and creativity since then. :)

MLB Fanfic writers: We call her Mari!

Me: literally no one has called her "Mari" in canon ever, please stop

Me, writing MLB fanfiction: "Marinette" "Marinette" "Marinette" "Marin-" Yeah ok, i understand now... her name is really annoying to write out every time...

[aprilma3]

So I did a thing

Yeah well so I tried fanfiction for the first time so enjoy???

I’m kinda excited for this yet nervous also, since I’ve been in the fandom for ages I just wanted to contribute a lil. So here’s my contribution :)

How to Fake a Marriage (Chapter 2)

Adrien Agreste is excited to go to London to get a degree in Physics- but he’s less excited about the ridiculous list of rules his father keeps giving him, especially since it’s clear that his father doesn’t trust his judgement at all. So what better way to rebel than to fake a wedding with one of his friends as soon as he gets to London.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

(AO3) (FF.net)

“Your father actually forbid you from dating?” Marinette asked in disbelief as she and Adrien finished putting away her groceries. Adrien had decided to put off his grocery shopping until the next day, since Marinette had invited him over for dinner on the condition he help her put away her groceries. He had been only too eager to help and spend some time with her. “That’s insane! He does realize that you’re an adult now, right?”

“I don’t think so,” Adrien admitted, folding up the cloth bag he had just emptied. “I mean, I sure it doesn’t help that I’m still doing the same stuff at Gabriel that I’ve been doing since collège. I might have a business degree, but I haven’t been helping with the administrative stuff for the company at all and that possibility hadn’t even been mentioned at all. It’s all photoshoots and commercials and fashion shows and ‘being the face of the brand’.” Adrien rolled his eyes. “Not that I want to be doing business or anything, but it seems like a waste after getting that degree and all.”

“And you didn’t apply to work anywhere else, or did your father forbid that as well?”

Adrien winced. “I, uh. Hadn’t thought of that. I just sort of assumed that since Father had been talking about me taking over the business end of Gabriel once I got my degree, I would automatically get some sort of job there.” He should have looked into that, probably, but then Plagg had pointed out that Adrien didn’t particularly like business, so why not study what he actually liked? Maybe now that he was in London, he could get some sort of part-time job using that degree so it wouldn’t go completely to waste.

Or maybe he could just focus on getting his physics degree. Considering that his father was paying for his living expenses, that would probably be easier. Besides, his father would probably object if he weren’t focusing all of his energy on his schooling.
