Huge shouts out to @chocoluckchipz for making the most beautiful animated calendar for us again this year!

lot of the things you mention is actually what made me stop posting on FF actually. A03 (and heck even WattPad) make it so easy to post, read, and interact with readers that all the hastle FF.net makes you go through, honestly, in my mind isnt worth it.

There are still a few days of the poll left, but I think it's pretty clear who is getting a makeover. ;)

Thank you for your reply! These are all great points!

If you have a specific complain about their design features, tell me in replies and tags. I'll be redesigning one of these websites for my User Experience class, so I'd love to hear complains from the actual users. Thanks!

Perfectly Human - 6

Adrien turned the corner and stopped at a crossroad. 

There were only a few seconds left before the light would change to red.

He wasn't in a hurry. 

His father had always insisted on hurrying. He would've hated for Adrien to leisurely walk back home instead of taking a car.

A woman right beside him loudly gasped and pushed her cup of coffee into his hand. Then, she jumped onto the road and pulled an elderly man in a red Hawaiian shirt towards the sidewalk, saving him from being run over by a car but hitting Adrien’s arm in the process.

Her coffee cup wasn’t completely closed. Adrien realized it as soon as the warm liquid splashed all over his shirt and jacket, slowly dripping onto his pants.

“Are you sure you’re okay?” the woman—who didn’t seem to even notice Adrien’s existence—asked the elder for the third time.

“Yes, yes. Thank you, young lady.” The man smiled at her. “I owe you my life.”

“Don’t be ridiculous, sir,” she replied, her back still to Adrien. “You don’t owe me anything but, please, be careful next time.”

“I will.” The man nodded. “Have a good day, young lady. You too, young man.” He looked at him walking by, a glint of something Adrien couldn’t quite distinguish sparkling in his eyes. 

“Oh, my gosh! I’m so sorry!” The woman finally noticed him.

Her eyes were blue.

A very, very beautiful shade of sky blue.

Can you rec fics in which Gabriel isn't the main antagonist?

I mean there are plenty of fics where he isn't the main antagonist, where there's no antagonist at all (ML has a lot of fluff), but I'm assuming you mean fics where there IS a main antagonist but that antagonist isn't him, and probably a more epic sort of story with an antagonist on Gabriel's scale and not like, a high school bully kind of thing (not that there's a lot of those I'd rec anyway).

Stitched Together by @nedjsmlfavs

Stitch Witch Marinette was just supposed to be having a nice, terrifying outing with her best friends. She never expected to find a magically trapped kitten, but here we are! Whatever happened to this poor little guy?

Poor Adrien, being transformed and chained up for ages, having no idea that he was gonna be rescued. But at least he got to have fun at Marinette’s place as a cat! 

Most of this fic is adorable, though with some dark undertones lying in wait. After all, SOMEONE chained up that poor little kitty…

In Direct Opposition by @generalluxun

Alya Cesaire is a brand new student to Francis Dupont, to Paris even. The first student she meets is one Chloé Bourgeois, and Alya is determined to make a friend. Things advance Chaotically. Her new 'friend' is definitely a handful, and suddenly Paris has a supervillain and two brand new superheroes! Alya finds herself balancing a lot of things, trying to live up to her ideals and those of her icons.

And then reality seems to contradict itself.

As time progresses it seems to happen more often. Becoming a hero, battling villains, staying alive, working through friendships. Something is lurking, tweaking events at times, changing them, and no one seems aware. Alya will need all her wits to get to the bottom of this. Her investigative mind can only get her so far though, and then she needs to rely on her friends. This is not a foe you can beat head on.

I betaed this entire fic, it’s really good! I adore the focus on Alya’s philosophy here, her determination to be a hero, to help people and defeat evil - and that defeating evil means trying to reform the people doing bad things when possible, to try to save EVERYONE, even the “villain”. I thought it was really clever the ways Alya would redirect Chloe and subtly encourage her to be a better person, while also trying to get the people around her to give her a second chance and keep an open mind. 

Also Alya and Chloe are an adorable sapphic couple XD.

The Rules of Engagement by @overworkedunderwhelmed

When tragedy sends Adrien Agreste racing back to Paris to run his father’s fashion house, Marinette doesn’t expect much from her very new, very rich boss. At least not until she is set up on a blind date with a very familiar face.

Much to her surprise, Adrien Agreste was hiding far more secrets behind his stoic business-like mask of temporary CEO. Maybe as many secrets as she had been trying to hide for years.

As they grow closer, Marinette fears her mask isn’t nearly as foolproof. Day after day, it gets harder for her to keep all her secrets well hidden from the surprisingly sweet man who insisted on staying by her side as often as possible.

Only she couldn’t afford to fail. Not when her biggest secret could spell the end of the job she’d dreamed about for years.

They might not be superheroes in this universe, but secret identities are still active here. Both Marinette and Adrien used to be involved with the Ladybug and Chat Noir movies, and both kept that a secret - Adrien especially, since if his father found out about it, there could be some bad repercussions, as he voiced Chat Noir without Gabriel’s permission. Marinette, meanwhile, is well known for making cosplay (calling herself “Ladybug” after the movie), and has been in contact with “Chat Noir” for quite some time before the story starts - not that she knows he’s the actual VA.

It’s mostly an Adrienette fic with the two of them getting to know each other after their unusual “first” meeting, where Marinette pretended to be Kagami in order to scupper the date with Adrien and get Tomoe off her back, with some intrigue and drama thrown in. Lila’s skulking around causing problems for the people around her, but she’s honestly not the main focus here.

Kwami Magi Homura Magica by Crossoverpairinglover

After eighty-four loops in time, Homura Akemi takes a new path to Paris to save her friends.

The sixty-third loop after that, Homura arrived at the Agreste Mansion.

After clash after clash with the heroes of Paris and its greatest menace, events have reached a tipping point.

Ladybug faces someone verging on a second wish, a wish that endangers space and time to save a friend.

This was an absolutely AMAZING story that crossoverpairinglover dropped out of NOWHERE. Seriously, if you like Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Miraculous Ladybug, this is a real treat - but be prepared to sit down and binge, because it’s over 100,000 words and only has three chapters. 

Anyway, I adore the care that’s taken with going through Homura’s mindset here, she gets a lot of character focus. And the lore! There’s some good explanations here for the history behind kwamis and Incubators’ interactions, and the Order of the Guardians normally treats Magical Girls, and why the Incubators are wrong in their assessment of the universe needing more energy to stave off entropy (hint: it involves Plagg), and just... there was a lot of love put into this.

And the action! Most Miraculous fics don’t have much in the way of fight scenes, and what they do have is mostly just functional. This is one of the rare exceptions. There’s some really long, detailed fight scenes in this (roughly the entire second half of the second chapter has one between Ladybug and Homura), which are a treat to read! 

We also get some glimpses into a variety of other universes here, other timelines, alternate ways things could have gone down - I’m especially partial to the rather detailed view we get of one where Homura sent a message asking for help to the Ladyblog on her third time loop, and how things progressed from there. 

The ending I also thought was really good, a happy ending that generally made sense and dealt with the issue of the Incubators. 

If you can’t tell I’m really happy with this fic, it was incredible and unexpected. The length of the individual chapters can be daunting, but if you’re up for the task, I highly recommend giving it a shot!

Dreams of You by @chocoluckchipz

Dreams had long been his only escape. Dreams of Ladybug, the girl who had always been there for him.

If only in his dreams. And only while she was also sleeping.

Because with the first rays of sunshine gliding over her skin, with the first fluttering of her eyelashes, from the moment she opened her eyes in the morning, memories of Adrien would vanish from her mind.

She would go on living her life.

He would always be the only one who remembered.

At least until they meet in the real world and fall in love all over again, something that would’ve been easier to do if Adrien wasn't a prisoner in his own home.

Chocoluckchipz has some of the most beautifully executed lovesquare fics I’ve read, and this is no exception. Most of the fic is dedicated to Adrien wooing Marinette, spending time with her, with her own dream self acting as his wingman, giving her tips on how to get her to fall for him, all the while frustrated that she can’t share memories with her waking self, and that she and Adrien can’t share as much information as they’d like while asleep, due to limitations of the “curse” that allows Adrien to share dreams with his soulmate. 

It’s not all cute Adrienette fluff though. There’s a threat in the background waiting to erupt, as the weirdness of Gabriel’s ultimatum to Adrien about finding Ladybug or else being forced to marry Lila keeps on gnawing at him - and with good reason. This is a world with magic and kwamis still, and that fact makes itself very relevant in the last third of the story. 

It’s a well-written tale and very much worth a read!

Perfectly Human - 5

“How long are you planning on doing this?”

Adrien shrugged, trying to get Nahida across the field on his screen as fast as possible. "I found out my father was one of the most wanted terrorists in France—who, may I mention, my now-estranged-because-of-him partner and I have been fighting for almost a decade—the same day I learned I’m not even human and my whole life was possibly one huge, fat lie. I’m allowed to be a bit depressed.”

"A bit? Yes." Félix picked up an empty convenience store food package off the floor and stashed it into a garbage bag. "But it's been over two months and you're still playing video games in your pyjamas all day long. At least come outside with me to get some real food."

“My father would’ve loved for me to eat ‘real food,’ ” Adrien replied, frowning. 

Another monster. 

How annoying. 

At least Nahida was as powerful as she looked cute and innocent. 

But perhaps he’d switch to Kazuha for this particular nuisance. 

“Aren’t you tired of instant noodles, chips, and soda?” Félix sighed, adding to his collection of recyclables in a trash bag. “Your metabolism is saving you now, but give it another month or two, and I wouldn’t be surprised if—”

“Marvelous!” Adrien smirked, switching to Kazuha. “My father would’ve hated for me to gain weight.”

“Imperfect” is the most perfect form of perfection.

Perfectly Human - 4

There wasn’t anything grand or magical about the next few moments. 

No sounds. 

No fireworks.

The only thing Adrien felt was… exhaustion. 

Exhaustion and deafening silence.

No more maniacal urges to go after Ladybug. 

No more anger, resentment, or rage. 

No more of his father’s voice in his head. 

No more overbearing desire to live his life his way no matter what it took. 

There was nothing.

Just exhaustion and silence.

Adrien closed his eyes and breathed in, almost falling on his bed. 

“I think it worked.” Félix let him go as soon as Adrien was safely seated. 

“Adrien?” Kagami stepped closer, cupping Adrien’s cheeks and raising his face to look at them. “How are you feeling?”

He couldn’t talk. His tongue was simply too heavy for work.

“I’m not giving you these back until you tell us how you are feeling.” Félix showed him the rings in his hand.

Who cared how he felt? Adrien was just a sentimonster who now, apparently, had changed masters.

 At least Félix wouldn’t be so cruel to him.

Perfectly Human - 3

Painkillers didn’t help. 

Alcohol only dulled the pain for so long. The itch got so unbearable, Adrien climbed back onto the roof of his mansion to retrieve the miraculous a full twenty-four hours after he’d stood his partner up.

She’d called his name for what felt like hours, franticly zooming around the area, yelling that it wasn’t funny and begging him to show himself. She’d left only once the first sun rays peeked from over the horizon the next morning. 

Did Ladybug find the miraculouses, though? 

Adrien couldn’t tell. 

He dared not to look when she was close by. 

Which meant there was still a chance she’d somehow missed them. 

In which case, he could end this agony. 

Yes, in an insane and twisted way, which Adrien would undoubtedly loathe himself for later, but there was only so much a huma— no, a sentimonster like him could take. 

He would fix the mess after. 

He'd just go about it as gently as possible, and then, he would reverse his wish right there and then.

Perfectly Human - 2

“Chat Noir killed Gabriel Agreste!” “Gabriel Agreste and his assistant died in a car crash. Signs of cataclysm were found on the body of the great designer!” “Did Ladybug approve of the murder of Gabriel Agreste? Are citizens of Paris safe,  now that we have the first casualty of the so-called 'hero's team?"

Adrien groaned, throwing the TV remote to the side.

These so-called “news” broadcasts had been going on for a few days now. 

A load of bullshit, if you asked him.

Chat Noir did cataclysm that man.

But he was Hawkmoth at the time! 

And it happened months ago!

In that car, Chat Noir was foolishly trying to save him!Ladybug would've believed him, but he couldn't respond to any of her messages and calls. Just seeing her image on TV made it harder for him to resist. If he’d hear her voice, if he’d get closer to her even through text… What would happen then? His father's— Hawkmoth’s last wish was coursing through Adrien’s veins: it burned and crippled, it was taking over his thoughts, pushing him farther over the edge with every passing minute.
