Manifesting a ladrien episode so hard in season 6. Marinette is WAY more comfortable interacting and flirting with Adrien so she does it transformed without realizing it and Adrien, who has been fighting his demons tooth and nail to ignore the fact he's still smitten with LB, is a bubblering mess flushing in her arms because oh god she's still so pretty and is she flitting with him??? What about her boyfriend?? Did they break up- does she need a friendly shoulder to cry on and maybe a chest to hug and a cheek to kiss and OH GOD IS THIS CHEATING. Meanwhile Maribug is like hehe wee I'm strong to princess carry my boyfriend yay

You know what, it's Ladrien time

Don't you love it when your superheroine girlfriend straight up kidnaps you?

Thank god for your good friend Marinette, who just so happened to pass by Ladybug and alerted her that a civilian was sad :(

ladrien is cool in its fuckedupness because it's so comfortably distant. they're both in their fake personas, they know the other is in their fake persona, and they're entirely willing to and enthusiastic about keeping up the charade. every interaction feels scripted and they both love this about it. there's never any danger in it because they're never required to be vulnerable whatsoever. they never have to be honest, they never have to be genuine, and they never expect the other to be genuine, and there's probably some twisted sort of comfort in knowing that the other person is never expecting you to take off their mask. that you can just lie and keep lying and it's fine

marichat is cool in its fuckedupness because it's so uncomfortably close. they both know each other so well but are unable to admit why, so they're just overly-friendly and don't have boundaries where they arguably should. there is no pretense to be civil or respectable so marichat comes with the grossest jokes and awkwardest silences and flippant displays of bad behavior. chat has no idea what proper boundaries should look like when someone isn't Using A Mask, and marinette is in no position to draw her foot in the sand* because being authoritative is for ladybug!!! so they're violating each others boundaries and making each other uncomfortable CONSTANTLY!!!

and like the others idk.

honestly ladybug you’re lucky it wasn’t a musical

“and what would you have sacrificed?”

“myself.”

the most disturbing part of the london special for me was seeing the usual emotional and easy to read by her over-the-top-expressions marinette look so devoid of any feelings at all. i’d argue this is the first time in the entire show where she’s gone completely numb to her environment.

i mean, LOOK AT HER!!!

[ao3-tag-statistics]

Miraculous Ladybug shipping is a fucking mess. Yes that's the official statistical term. 52% of all Miraculous Ladybug fics include some permutation of shipping Marinette (Ladybug) and Adrien (Chat Noir), and there are four permutations.

So shipping these two people requires four ships, because they each have a secret identity. 52% of all Miraculous Ladybug fics include some permutation of shipping Marinette (Ladybug) and Adrien (Chat Noir), and of those, 1.6% are tagged with all four permutations and 72% aren't tagged with any particular permutation.

11% of all the fics are tagged Ladynoir. 14% are tagged Adrinette, and 11% are tagged Marichat. There is significant overlap (see Venn diagram below).

Ladrien (Ladybug x Adrien) is less popular. Only 4% of all Marinette x Adrien fics are tagged Ladrien, and only 2% of all Marinette x Adrien fics are only tagged with Ladrien.

Also, 10 fics were added while I was working on this post. Damn.

BEHOLD THE VENN DIAGRAM OF SECRET IDENTITY CONFUSION

official data visualization guidance says i should use an upset plot for this, but i'm going for max psychic damage here.
