A Slice in the Life of the Boyfriend of the Daughter of the most eccentric Billionaire's Family of the northern Hemisphere (or The Day Felix arrived late, met his Girlfriend's Brothers and didn't get to drink his Tea)

Summary: Meeting your girlfriend's family is never exactly easy.

AO3 | Masterlist

Meeting your girlfriend's family is never exactly easy. But if your girlfriend is the long lost and only recently found daughter of the probably most eccentric billionaire in the northern hemisphere and has a gaggle of siblings who sounded absolutely crazy from the things she mentioned casually alone, meeting the family wasn’t just an awkward event. Felix felt like an emissary of an ancient kingdom being sent into enemy territory to propose an alliance which would ask the enemy kingdom to give up their most-beloved treasure.

But being a Graham de Vanily meant not to be intimidated by anyone. Not by his uncle in his disturbing villain costume, not by a crime-ridden city and it’s just as crazed rogues and vigilantes, not even by Marinette’s temper. She rarely lost it, but if she did, he really didn’t want to be in her way. She was just as creative with torture as she was with her designing and if he was really honest with himself, he was absolutely intimidated by her, even if he wouldn’t ever admit it. 

He felt this shouldn’t count. She was Ladybug! Freaking everyone was intimidated by Ladybug! At least everyone who saw that one video in which she verbally took apart the Justice League for getting involved without coordinating with the heroes of Paris and almost costing them everything. They were lucky Red Robin and his team warned them and helped them with a plan to counter the adult heroes. He would never forget the way Nightwing looked like a plucked chicken after she was done with them.

At least something good came out of this: With the Titans they gained allies with a serious disregard for boundaries and they were able to learn that his uncle was the weirdo whose hobby it was to possess teenagers and meddle in their petty teenage dramas. Well, he was glad. Had he chosen competent people the heroes would have had a harder time defeating him. Felix wished he could say he was as surprised by his uncle’s hobby as his cousin was, but the truth was that it made too much sense. Honestly, he felt slightly offended to be related to that man, even if it was through the marriage of his aunt.

At least today he would only meet the family’s butler, four of her five brothers and her father. Her foster brother Duke and her sister Cassandra were unavailable.

His chauffeur finally arrived at the gate to the Wayne property. On the way there from the high-class penthouse he and his mother rented for their stay - they were debating finding a more permanent residence, since Marinette would spent a lot more time here and his mother fell in love with the architecture and wanted to make at least one movie here - he had felt like every single traffic light had turned red just as they got there which meant he wasn’t a bit early or perfectly on time. No. He was late. His father had taught him the importance of punctuality. “Being on time is being late,” Gustav Graham de Vanily always said, “but at least you’re technically on time so you might be forgiven if you apologize. But it’s always better to be a few minutes early. But don’t be too early, that’s just as impolite as being too late. Always plan with some spare time, you can always wait outside until it would be acceptable for you to ring the bell. And if you still can’t make it, at least call!”

Well, his father probably didn’t expect that an angry Poison Ivy would rip up almost all streets between his penthouse and Bristol just as he got into the car. Neither would he expect the traffic lights to conspire against him. At least he did call ahead and talked to the Butler, Mr. Pennyworth, who seemed understanding, but also sounded very reserved. Obviously a fellow englishman.

When the car stopped in front of the imposing manor Felix took a moment to take a deep breath and make sure he looked presentable and that his kwami Krrah was still carefully hidden inside his waistcoat. The crow wanted to come along, so they could hang out with the other kwamis in Marinette’s room.

Then he took the flower bouquet he brought as a hospitality gift. Marinette had told him how much pride Mr. Pennyworth took in his cooking and baking and he knew from her parents in Paris that in this case bringing any food would be inappropriate.

Mr. Pennyworth, at least Felix assumed it was him, had already opened the door and watched as he walked up the steps to the entrance.

“Mister Graham de Vanily, I suppose?”

Felix gave him a polite smile and offered a handshake which the butler took after a moment. “Indeed that’s me, Felix Graham de Vanily. Am I correct in assuming that you are Mr. Alfred Pennyworth?”

“You are. May I take your coat? The flowers would be for Miss Marinette?”

“Oh no, they are for the family. Marinette let me know that it would be quite the faux pas to bring anything edible as a hospitality gift,” Felix answered. He has always been quite observant, so he noticed the tiny twitch in the older man’s face. A faint almost smile. He decided to see this as success.

“Very well, then I shall find a suitable vase in just a moment. Please follow me and take a seat in the sitting room, I will inform the family of your arrival.”

The butler took his coat, put it away and offered him a pair of house slippers. After that he led him to a tastefully decorated room to wait for his hosts. He asked him if he could offer him anything to drink and Felix gratefully accepted a cup of Earl Grey tea.

“Psst, Felix!”

Felix looked around before he looked down his waistcoat into the beady black eyes of his kwami.

“I’ll go and find the other kwamis and tell your girlfriend that you’re here,” Krrah declared in a croaky voice. Felix gave them a tiny nod and then acted as if he was checking his appearance again.

When he looked back up a steaming cup of tea stood in front of him. When did that appear? Hopefully after Krrah got away. He very deliberately did not check on his tie pin to make sure it was still there. If someone actually had seen everything, that would give too much away. Instead, he adjusted his cuffs and checked his cufflinks. After that he decided to reach for the tea.

Only for it to be snatched out of his hand. He blinked in surprise and turned in the direction the hand had come from. There stood a dark haired teen roughly his age with icy blue eyes and an exhausted smile. In one hand he held the cup of tea, the other held up a struggling kid by the scruff of his neck like a misbehaving kitten. The image was surprisingly fitting especially when the kid started to hiss insults at the teen, calling him “Drake”.

“I’m so sorry for him,” Drake apologized. “Damian likes to play pranks and this time he seemed to think putting some sleeping pills in your tea would be funny.” At that the boy hissed again and resumed his struggles.

“It is my duty as her only true blood brother to defend Marinette,” Damian declared.

“May I ask what the meaning of this is?” a cool voice came from the door. There stood Mr. Pennyworth with another steaming cup of tea. His right eyebrow rose as he observed the picture that presented itself to him. “Master Timothy, would you please let Master Damian down?”

Timothy sighed and set the child down. Damian gave him a calculating look and then a small knife stuck in the upholstery next to him and Timothy restrained the boy once more.

“Alfred, I would love to let go of Damian, but he doesn’t seem to know how to behave in front of a guest,” Timothy told the butler. “I’ll bring him to Bruce. I’m sorry about the upholstery.”

With that he left and Mr. Pennyworth placed the cup of tea in front of him with a sigh.

“Please excuse the young master. Regrettably he hasn’t had the most healthy upbringing.”

“It’s not my place to voice any judgment,” Felix replied. It didn’t stop him from thinking such judgment, of course. But instead of saying anything else he pulled the knife out and gave it the butler. “Would you please return this to its owner?”

The man nodded and left again. Felix turned back to the tea when the cup was, again, snatched away. This time he couldn’t suppress a twitch at his eyes and turned again to the person who took the beverage this time.

How this tank of a man was able to come in without making any noise Felix had no idea. The man had unruly, curly black hair. The white streak at the front brought to mind the image of a skunk.

“Hm, Earl Grey. To be honest, I prefer any green tea, but it’s good to have another tea drinker here. There are already too many bean worshippers in this house,” the man declared and gave him a roguish grin. “The name’s Jason Todd and you’re obviously pixie pop’s arm candy?”

“Arm candy, that’s a new one. Especially since those I know agree that everyone pales next to Marinette. I am pleased to make your acquaintance, Jason. I am Felix Graham de Vanily.” He offered the man his hand for a handshake and suppressed a wince when that handshake turned out to be a bit more forceful than expected.

“Ah, Felix was it? I have a very serious question for you Felix,” another voice came from the door. Once more a young man with black hair stepped into the room. He grinned good-naturedly, but there was a dangerous glint in his dark blue eyes that had Felix immediately on edge.

“Tell me … what’s your favorite cereal?”

Taken aback Felix only blinked at the man. Jason next to him burst into peals of laughter.

“Cereal?”

“Yes, cereal.”

Felix didn’t know if he was serious or not. “Actually, I don’t eat cereal.” The man gasped as if he had just insulted all his ancestors.

“Then what do you eat for breakfast or as a late night snack?”

“Well, for breakfast I usually eat a boiled egg and toast with jam, marmalade or honey. And I rarely eat a late night snack, but if I get hungry between meals I prefer a greek yogurt with honey, nuts and fruit or simply an apple if I don’t want to put as much work into it,” he explained confusedly. It seemed Marinette’s family was even weirder than she had told him.

“Oh, Felix boy, sounds like you are much too healthy and sane for this family,” Jason cackled.

“I tried to warn him,” he heard Marinette say from behind the cereal-obsessed man. “In or out Dick, but don’t stand around in the doorway.”

The man going by the unfortunate name of “Dick” sighed and stepped inside. Behind him Marinette came in and gave him one of her beautiful smiles. That’s all he needed to remember why he was doing this.

“Hello Marinette,” he greeted as he stood up to come over to her. Marinette grinned, pulled him in and pressed their lips together. After the kiss swallowed his surprised (and plainly undignified) squawk he returned the kiss gently. The two men in the room made noises of discomfort but he realized this was part of why Marinette did it when she grinned into the kiss.

When they pulled back his wonderful, beautiful, brilliant girlfriend smirked at her brothers.

“Remember, I am French, I have absolutely no problem kissing my boyfriend in front of you or dad whenever any of you step out of line. And I can’t imagine Felix disliking my idea of punishing you, do you?”

He shook his head and gave her a conspiratorial grin.

“My lips are at your service, my queen.”

He Only Has Himself To Blame

Summary: Felix joins the akuma class, he's seeking revenge and wants to demask the sunshine persona Adrien has put on

OR

Marinette is lost after getting her heart broken, bullied and dehumanised by her old friends, so she finds comfort in a certain blonde boy who joins her class

This will be a short series that I decided to make after reading soap_lady's "he can only blame himself" fanfic on ao3

The characters are in 11th grade meaning most of them are 17-18

Marinette has been MDC ever since she was 14 and Gabriel's business is going down due to him getting too into the villain act, I'm trying really hard to not make Mari seem too ooc or a Mary Sue

Chapter One.

To say Felix hated school, it would be an understatement.

He DESPISED school. The place is full of gold diggers left and right, people who would throw you out in a split second

Felix transferred to Françoise DuPont during his third year of high school. His mother was having a business trip to Paris for some time and since Felix didn’t have friends in New York, she signed him up for this school until he finishes his lycée

Once he set foot on the school, people looked at him weirdly, well...maybe it was his questionable clothes, they clearly showed rich boy and that he wasn’t from this school.

He could hear the annoyingly loud “whispers” as he walked to the principal’s office

‘He looks like a model, do you think he is one?’

‘He looks like he has money, maybe we should try and befriend him!’

‘He looks like Adrien, oh my gosh I’m going to faint if we have two handsome models at our school, it’s like we hit jackpot!’

He sighed as he finally reached the school’s principal’s office.

Around 45 minutes of not important information later

Felix finally walked upstairs to his class, his head hurting from the goody-two-shoes principal, his way of lecturing teen-agers was in such a way it felt like he was in kindergarten again. To be fair it kinda was the same, he was in a strange place full of people he could sense had bad intentions, so he just rubbed his temples and opened the door to see a very loud class split in two parts.

The front side, he spotted the other blonde guy the whispers were about, Adrien Agreste, his cousin.

Oh boy, did that not just make this whole thing even more irritating.

The front side had much more people in comparison with the back side, the back side was formed of five people.

A girl with a strong pink hair in some loose pig tails who was making a hand gesture to what the front side was listening to

Felix wanted to laugh at that, as he caught a split second of what the girl with brown hair on the front side was rambling about, it was something about how she’s his uncle’s muse or some crap like that, nothing more than a fairy tale she could only dream of.

He remained silent and analysed the other people in the small group

There was a guy with bright red hair who looked like he was barely containing himself from bursting out laughing at what the pink haired girl was doing

The second guy in the group wore a red sweater and had a washed out kinda blonde hair that was spiked up, he was giggling at what the pink haired girl was doing, while having a hand on her shoulder.

The third guy, wore a cap with some black glasses, he looked kind of sad at the front group but his sad frown moved to a half smile as he sat down next to the second girl-

‘What the actual – NO WAY THAT’S HER’ Felix panicked as he remembered who the second girl was.

‘The “I-love-you” girl, what a coincidence to be in the same class as you’ he thought, not noticing the fact that he was staring

But someone did notice him stare, it was the actual girl herself.

She had the same shock on her face as Felix did, probably was not expecting to see him ever again after the stunt at his cousin’s house two years ago.

‘Great, this couldn’t be more awkward’ he sighed as he moved to step in the class, hearing someone was close to the door.

“Oh! You must be the transferred student, come on! My class is probably dying to meet you.” The ginger teacher said loud enough for Felix to shiver at how loud she was

Oh, he was sure the class of idiots was dying to meet him.

He could practically see the hearts sparkling in the sausage haired girl's eyes who moved to the second line of seats, behind his cousin.

The girl with two shades of colours in her hair was staring at him as she was whispering something to her seatmate’s ear.

Him and the teacher walked in the class as she was basically dragging him to the front desk.

"Good morning class! This is Felix, Felix uh…-" the teacher looked at him for an answer about his last name

He sighed and said "Graham de Vanily. Felix Graham de Vanily."

"Ah, yes! Class, he is a transferred student from New York, treat him kindly and make him feel at home. You can go sit uhm…in the back! With Marinette." She put a hand on his shoulder, making him shiver at the contact

'Oh great.' he caught a glimpse at his cousin's face, it was priceless

He looked angry then disappointed then it went back to normal.

'Maybe this wouldn't be so bad after all' Felix thought trying to retain the smirk his face desperately wanted to make.

He reached Marrinete's and his seat.

He could see that she was avoiding his gaze, so he had the genius idea to put his hand on hers

She shot him a deadly glare, in which Felix responded by "smiling" warmingly at her

"What are you doing?" she whispered angrily

"I wanted to get your attention since you were clearly avoiding my gaze. I know you most definitely think of me as a son of a bitch, but i want to get revenge on my cousin, I know you won't help me since I saw your confession on his phone back to a year ago, but it was worth a shot for me to ask for your help." He whispered, it wasn't exactly a lie, it was mostly to make his cousin jealous. But what he didn't think of nor plan, was his heart skipping a beat once her gaze finally met his.

Marinette's face had a confused look on it, probably processing what he just said

What he did not expect, was for her to giggle.

"Let me get this straight, angel, you want to hang out with me to piss lil' ol' Agreste off, because you want revenge, you still want revenge after two years ago, you pretended to be him, try and kiss a superhero, then blame it on getting akumatized." She covered her giggles with her hand to hide the snorts begging to come out.

Felix thought she looked so pretty for whatever reason. He bit back a smile, then it clicked.

'Kiss a hero? How does she know about that?!' he thought. Felix was 100+% sure that no one saw when he tried to do that.

Oh.

OH.

'What a silly mistake you just did Mlle. Dupain-Cheng' he looked back at her to see she closed her eyes while trying not to laugh out loud.

He smiled. (Not gonna say someone's dying, but the world's at it's end if he smiles)

'You're such an idiot to not realize what you could have had, Agreste.' Assuming she was laughing was a sign her and Adrien weren't together, maybe if he was lucky, not on good terms either, seeing that she did call Adrien Agreste and not just Adrien

"Well yes. He's not the person who everyone sees him to be, that's the reason I did what I did last time. I tried to show everyone how he really was, he called it a prank, I call it wanting the truth to get out, I do however realize that there were other things I could have done to show that but can't change the past now, can't I?" He whispered

Marinette opened her eyes with a thoughtful look on her face

"I know Agreste isn't who he stands to be, I'm more than aware he isn't this sunshine price in shinning armour mostly everyone belives him to be." She said in a serious tone, with a blank expression on her face

Felix was in deep thought, millions of questions running through his mind.

He decided not to press forward and just nod at her statement.

After some minutes of pretty awkward silence for Felix at least, Marinette finally looked at their hands who were still connected, with her hand being underneath his

Her smile passed Felix's eyes as he was looking through some papers on his part of the table

Marinette put her other hand on his, getting closer to his ear then whispered

"I'm in, I'll help you get your revenge." She backed down from his personal space then dragged their hands Infront of her

Felix was processing what she just told him, he was about to say something but then noticed she was holding his hand tightly between hers as she had a petty smirk on her face

The boy's cheeks got warm, to a concerning state, he just took his hand and turned the other way, covering his mouth and cheeks with the other hand as he avoided Marinette's gaze

In response to the sudden outburst, Marinette just laughed and went back to paying attention to the class

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

What neither of the teens knew, was that Marinette's out of character (for most people) affection was caught on by Lila, who looked like she was fuming as she looked back at the two.

"Girl, you ok? Your face looks red and swallowed, are you having an allergic reaction?" A concerned Alya asked looking as her bestie

Lila swallowed HARD as she realized she was staring at the pair behind them

"A-ah…y-yes I am alright, just, don't you think Marinette would bully Felix too right?... She's been invalidating his personal space ever since he got to the back…" Lila said in a shaky tone, trying to make it sound as real as possible

'No way I'm letting Mari-brat take my key to success, Gabriel's business has been going down in fame since people are boycotting the brand for whatever reason. The Graham de Vanily family has a better reputation than the Agrestes ever could even dream of!' she thought angrily

"Lila, girl, you don't think she would, would she? I told you what Felix did last time he was here. If something he would be the one making fun of her, he's a bigger jerk than Marinette!" Alya whispered

'Oh, now you're taking her side?' Lila thought unfazed at her "friend's" stupidity

"Felix looks like a sweetheart! (Yea right) time changes people Alya, Marinette is a perfect example of that!" Lila whispered, trying to get her friend to understand what she meant.

"Hmm… you're right, after class we're confronting Marinette on her bullying, the poor boy just got here! How could she be so cruel…" Alya said angrily

"Oh Alya, I don't know…" Lila said, putting a hand on the girl's shoulder comfortingly

IMW Chapter 10

Lady Miracle stared at him, waiting, watching as after a moment, his chest rose. Pained rattling breaths shook his body with the effort it took to make them and his face twisted in pain. It was physical, she could see that in the way his body reacted, but the way his face fell and the sob that left him, she knew he was feeling everything.

But he was still alive.

Movement out of the corner of her eye drew her out of her appraisal of the Agreste patriarch and she saw that it was Duusu and Nooroo. Lady Miracle wondered what it was like for the two Concepts to finally see the man that had used their magic to hurt millions of people being punished after seven long years. To finally re-join their fellow Kwami after a hundred years of being ‘lost’.

They watched every move Agreste made, every twitch and shudder and relished every broken sob and scream of agony that had left him and was still escaping his lips. They were waiting for her, and the realisation gave her an idea.

“detransform.”

Destransforming herself, Tikki appeared in a small ball of light in front of her, hovering almost protectively she glared down at the man who had abused two of her brethren as her aura joined Nooroo, Duusu and Plagg’s as they reunited without words.

Marinette closed her eyes, reaching within her she summoned each of the Kwami and they appeared, one by one, in glowing balls of power and light, their aura’s joining the others and filling the dome as they stared down at Gabriel Agreste with predator-like focus as he whimpered.

Not a single one of the nineteen Kwami moved. But their auras fluctuated and pulsed as they tried to reign in their anger as magic, ancient, dark and dangerous danced through the air, causing Marinette’s hair to stand up and she struggled to not shudder at the feel of overwhelming power.

“Curse him as much as you desire.”

Marinette turned and walked towards the edge of the dome, making a portal as the Kwami stilled. The tension in the observatory snapped with an explosion and she stepped through the portal as screams and other sounds were drawn from Paris’ infamous terrorist. If his screams under her curse were bad, they were nothing compared to that.

Closing the portal behind her, the noise stopped immediately and all that was left was the silence.

It was like a plug was pulled, and all energy she had drained out of her. She couldn’t believe it. It didn’t seem real. After years of battles, struggles, emotional repression and abuse were over.

“We did it.” Marinette whispered in shock, letting her spoken words shift the weight off her shoulders and felt immediately lighter.

For the first time since she picked up the Miraculous of Creation and Fortune, swearing to free Paris from Shadow Moth, Marinette felt free. 

“We won.”

Court Proceedings

“Uhh, B” Tim walked down into the Batcave. “You’re going to want to see this.” he went to the Batcomputer, typed something in, and brought up news coverage of a court case.

The second Bruce read the title his face darkened he said, “call everyone down.”

—

“All rise. Department One of the Supreme Court of Appeals is now in session. Please be seated.”

As everyone in the court took their places, the Judge began to present the case. “Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Calling the case of the People of Paris, France versus Gabriel Agreste, previously known as ShadowMoth. Are both sides ready?”

“Ready for the People, Your Honor.”

“Ready for the Defence Your Honor”

“Lady Miracle?”

“I’m ready,” the Defender nodded her head. As she walked to the podium, Lady Miracle looked around the courtroom. The case was to be heard in the Palais de Justice. The room looked too clean for the dirty truths that were about to be revealed. Making her walk to the stand painfully short.

She wasn’t the only one asked to testify against Gabriel. Some of the most deadly Akuma victims and the most frequent victims were also present: Ondine, Mr. Ramier, August, who had just turned 2 years old the previous month, etc. Other reporters who had seen multiple battles also stood witness.

They filled the pews of the courtroom and in the back stood the other reporter with their cameras. The cameras that would broadcast the court case to the entire world. Where everyone would know of what went down in Paris. The mayor of Paris and the President of France both agreed to keep the Akuma attacks hidden from the rest of the world. The last thing Paris needed was for the Justice League to come in and mess up what fragile structure they had built. Heaven knows what would've happened if Superman or Batman had come and been akumatized. So instead they blocked the media and moved the JLE headquarters out of Paris to Marseilles.

Once Lady Miracle made it to the podium the Clerk came up to swear her in. “Please stand. Raise your right hand. Do you promise that the testimony you shall give in the case before this court shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?”

Does it count that the ‘Gods’ already loved her? I mean the kwamis are gods so…?

“I do”

“Please state your name and occupation for the record.”

She gave the clerk a deadpan look because everybody knew who she was and exactly why she was there. But she answered anyway.

“Lady Miracle, Hero, and protector of Paris, France.”

“Thank you. We will now begin the questioning.” As madam walked up to begin questioning, the rest of the world was able to see Lady Miracle for the first time in all of her glory.

She was asked basic questions about the fights, etc.

She ended her testimony by saying- 

“I judged and punished Gabriel according to the laws of the miraculous order and then proceeded to turn him into the authorities so that he may also face judgment in the courts of Paris.” Lady Miracle said her face was hard and showed no emotion. For a while no one spoke, everyone was too busy processing what they had heard.

“Thank you, Lady Miracle” the Judge spoke, finally breaking the silence.

“Am I done?” She asked.

“Yes, unless the Defender has any more questions to ask?”

“None, Your Honor.”

“Then that is all, Lady Miracle. Thank you for your time.”

Lady Miracle stood and made it back to her seat.

“Next,” the judge continued, “ we will hear the testimony of Gabriel Agreste.”

.............

“And what about Marinette?”

“Who?” Gabriel glared at the person who asked him the question.

“Marinette Dupain-Cheng. She was the only person in the Akuma class, besides your son, that you never akumatized.”

“Oh, her,” Gabriel spat, “trust me, my friend, it wasn’t from lack of trying. Marinette Dupain-Cheng was an absolute menace for me. Despite not having powers like that pesky bug and cat she still managed to foil my plans. I tried everything I could to akumatize Marinette. I blacklisted her from multiple fashion houses, hired crooks to scare her and steal, had her fashion website taken down for ‘plagiarism’, I even went as far to make a deal with one of her classmates to make her school life a living hell.” he sneered, “Yet for some reason, that pesky brat managed to contain her emotions enough so my Akuma’s couldn’t possess her.”

“And you’re just going to admit to that?”

“Of course.” he said matter of factly, “My fate has already been sealed. There’s no point keeping any more skeletons in the closet. Marinette Dupain-Cheng was going to be my masterpiece. If I was able to akumatize her I could have gotten Lady Miracle and Chat Noir’s miraculous and I could have—” he was cut off by a series of bubbles escaping from his mouth.

“What was that?” The person off-screen asked horrified.

“That was the annoying curse that—” more bubbles “was placed on me so I don’t reveal too much about the miraculous. Regardless, Mme. Dupain-Cheng remained obnoxiously optimistic for the past six years, or she just blocked off any emotion that I could have manipulated.” Gabriel rolled his eyes.

“O..kay, on to the next question.”

Gabriel Agreste had a week-long court trial that started a week after his revelation. While the length and speed at which the trial began and finished was abnormal, Paris had wanted justice to be served as soon as possible after years of trauma. It was televised throughout France and everyone in the country watched it, many businesses and schools showing it on screen. Compiled by her and handed over to the group of lawyers prosecuting Agreste, it had been easy for Marinette to label everything nicely and put it in a folder to hand over. She already had a portfolio on the man, both Shadow Moth and Gabriel, all she needed to do was add what she had found at Agreste Manor when Ladybug was cursing Gabriel.

Some of the evidence included bribes that had been made too, and accepted by board members of Collège Françoise Dupont. Many staff members had also been bribed, the most notable being Principal Damocles, to ensure the Akuma Class stayed together. Phone calls and text messages between Gabriel Agreste and Nathalie Sancoeur, as well as between Gabriel Agreste and Lila Rossi, about akumatisation plans and Scarlet Swarm ideas. They dated from the day his identity was discovered back to the first Scarlet Swarm years earlier which included conversations about Nathalie being Mayura.

The calls and text messages were backed up by video footage from Agreste Manor’s security system of the three as they brainstormed different powers that akumas could have in future and planned the next Scarlet Swarm. The prosecutors had akuma flight patterns that showed that Agreste Manor was the epicentre and the building remained unharmed during most of the attacks no matter the magnitude.

There were files Gabriel had made on each of the past heroes, labelled by their hero names, holding photographic evidence that he had had stalked them on multiple occasions after their reveal, despite the Temps being thirteen at the time. The only file that wasn’t labelled by their hero name was Marinette’s, and upon closer inspection it was revealed why.

The file had been made before and she was revealed to have been Princess Justice and later Queen Mean and was filled with plans on ways to akumatised her. It was the largest file out of all of them and it showed she had been stalked by the middle-aged man.

It was almost an obsession, his interest in getting her akumatised. On the plans that failed he had jotted little notes how to improve whatever traumatic or upsetting thing he made happen to her that had nearly caused her to become one of his akumas.

It was disturbing and more than a little numbing as Marinette listened and watched footage, read documents and learnt about how obsessed the middle-aged man who had terrorised her city had been with her for years.

Luka, her honorary brother, had held her hand for the duration of the trial, gently rubbing circles on her skin with his thumb. Felix and Kagami muttered about defiling his grave, small and dangerously. Jagged, Zoe and Penny sat in stony silence tapped their legs like they did when they were planning to destroy someone.

The Queens Court

CHAPTER FOUR :THE STORY OF THE CAT AND SNAKE.

YOUROFFICIALREPIRTER@BLONDIE

Rumor has it they is going to be a battle on who gets to be king.

#lettgegamesbegin

After a bit of discussion and strategiesing Chloe had left the pair alone due to needing to head back to school as lunch period was over. Marinette had decided to not return to school, and Chloe had of course agreed. Aurora had already hinted on the queens return earlier then expected and her return to school was suppose to be grand.

"Sooo," Marinette had dragged out after a minute of silence. Both set on the floor legs crossed, facing toward one another. "We need to talk"

"You mean argue?" the blonde said . He had never been one to beat around the bush. He leaned forward with his infuriating smirk, hocking his finger on her chin. "I'm sure we can find better things to do with our time."

Color spread throughout the bluenette's cheeks. She took a deep breath trying to control her haywire mind before gently pushing the blonde away.

"Stop doing that," she hissed causing him to smirk as he leaned back exposing a bit more of his chest driving the blue eyed girl crazier then before.

"Stop what," he asked with a raised eyebrow almost daring her to voice her thoughts out.

"That," she said feverishly gesturing towards his general direction. "Your messing with my mind"

"Well it's not my fault we're crazy about each other," he said chuckling at the girls flustered state.

"We're supposed to be having a serious conversation," the girl says through her gritted teeth.

"Talk my Queen, I'll never miss the opportunity to listen to you melodic voice," Felix say leaning forward as a gesture of his undivided attention.

Marinette froze for awhile at the word 'melodic'. It reminded her of a certain guitarist. Guilt seemed to settle in the stomach, her she was thinking of another men in front of Felix, whom she could not deny her feelings for.

"You okay love?" Felix asked worry clear in his eyes. Marinette realized she had frozen for a minute too long and was not able to keep her negative emotions from being visible on her face.

"I-i don't think you know the real me Felix," she whispered eyes studying the floor. "You can't possibly be in love with me"

"What do you mean, of course I know the real you Marie," he said softly, using her birth given name. This gave her a sense of dejavu for two entirely different reasons. "I know you as you are and I love you for it"

"You in love with a facade," she shouted. "This cold ruthless queen that is not who I am, I-"

"Have a heart of gold, I know," he cuts in causing her to stare at him in shock. "Marie I've known for as long as you've been alive and that's a long time for me not to truly see what kind of person you are."

His admission caused her heart to feel with warmth, releasing a tension she did not know was there to begin with from her shoulders.

"You're the type of person who begins to cry in the middle of a ball ruin, making a scene in order to draw attention away from an unfortunate woman who had made a mess of her dress," he continues. "You the type of person who punches a grown men in the balls at the age of five for getting handsy with a teenager."

"You fight a destroy as much evil as you can and I am more than happy to fight besides you," he states earnestly. "I will follow you to the ends of the earth because I know that your heart is leading the way."

"I know you Marie and I never want you doubting my love for you ever again."

Felix's admission hung in the air. Something about it felt as pure and powerful as Luka's admission. In that moment Marinette knew she was in trouble. Both of her suitors had admitted their love for her in the purest way imaginable and she had no idea who to pick.

"He's a true cat," Tikki swooned shattering the two's peace. She had her tiny paw on her forehead, leaning back dramatically.

"Tikki," Marinette yelped at the way the kwami had exposed herself.

"What he already knows, you were bound to introduce is to each other," Tikki states floating around the boy carefully assessing him. "Quiet a fine specimen."

"Tikki," the girl yelped once again throughly embarrassed.

"He sssstill, gottt notthing on Luka thoughhh," Sass hissed making his presence known. Marinette looked at the creature in astonishment.

"How'd you get out of the box," Marinette yelped causing the snake to smirk at her, letting her know she was not receiving the answer to that question.

"Luka?" Felix questioned. "Is that his name? "

"The tale of the Cat and the Snake , a war that has been raging on since the very beginning of time, each trying to win over the heart of Ladybug," Wayzz said seemingly materializing from thin air.

"Seriously, where are you guys coming from," Marinette said surveying the room for anymore stray Kwami's.

"Who wins?" Felix asked frantically.

"What?" four voices echoed.

"Who wins her heart, the Cat or the Snake," he asks firmly staring at the beings.

"It issss/is not predetermined," Both Wayzz and Sass echo out at the same time.

"Yeah I guess I wouldn't like it is fate stripped my choice away from me," Marinette absentmindedly mumbled.

"Well let me make your choice simpler," Felix announced pulling her onto his lap, taking the bluenette completely by surprise. Marinette let out a yelp at the sudden movement.

Felix pulled her face toward his. Their lips had barely touched before another bang disturbed causing Felix to groan against a giggling Marinette's lips.

"Now now dear little sister what have I said about having boys in your room," the one and only Jason Todd said with a smirk.

"Not to do anything you wouldn't do," the girl answered turning towards her brother while trying to detach from the boy.

"Nice try but no," he said with a chuckle fully emerging into the room. "The only thing stopping me from putting a bullet between pretty boys head is you... Well that and the fact that neither of you is naked"

"Jason," the girl yelled as she finally managed to pull herself up.

"A few minutes and you would have," Felix said causing Marinette to look at him in horror.

"Careful blondy," Jason warned as he embraced his sister. "Long time no see you little devil"

"It's been awhile," the girl whispered with a hint of guilt.

"We'll discuss that later," he said ruffling her hair. "Right now special delivery."

BDBWM Day 14 | Overprotection

original prompt | complete masterlist

Marinette finishes slipping on her shoes at the same time the doorbell rings. She races towards it, giddiness pumping in her chest. 

But Jason beats her to it. 

He opens the door and easily covers the path with his stature. Marinette’s face twists into a scowl. Jason leans on the doorframe. “Name, age, occupation, intentions with my sister?” 

Before the visitor can reply, Marinette pulls Jason away, growling, “Felix Graham de Vanily, eighteen, my fucking boyfriend, here to take me out on a date!” 

“Hmp.” Jason crosses his arms. 

“I already told you about our plans!” She raises her voice. “Wait—did you just go to the manor for this? Weren’t all of you done with your shovel talk?!” 

Jason examines his fingernails. “Were we?” 

She waves him away. “Go away, Jason.” 

He turns to Felix. “Have her home by—” 

“Nine p.m. sharp, I know.” Felix says coolly. 

Damian pops out of nowhere with his katana. “Keep her safe or else I will skewer you!” 

“Damian!” Marinette hisses. “Not the family heirloom!” 

The boy grumbles under his breath after Felix makes the promise. Marinette pushes both her brothers away and shuts the door behind her. Felix smiles, takes her hand, and bends down to press a featherlight kiss on her knuckles. “Mademoiselle.” 

Her grin stretches wide as she pulls him for a hug. “Mon amour, I missed you.” 

In her periphery, she spots both Jason and Damian’s face squished against the window. She throws them a glare and locks her arm around Felix’s, walking down the front steps. 

“I’m so sorry about them,” she groans, running her fingers through her heated curls. 

“It’s not out of the ordinary,” Felix says with a hint of amusement in his tone. “It’s a good thing they are protective of you.” 

“Overprotective,” she corrects. “This is why I prefer our dates to be in Paris and not Gotham.” 

“Even so, they find ways to threaten me.” 

She huffs. 

—

“And then I told Adrien to catch those M&M’s with his mouth—” Marinette stops, nearly dropping her fork. 

There, on one of the rooftops near the outdoor restaurant, she spots several figures. Reds. Green. Blue. Black. 

Her entire family. 

Her mouth hangs open as she tries not to look at them. “It’s still the afternoon!” She whispers. “Why the hell are they here?” 

Felix doesn’t seem to mind, but the vigilantes diligently follow them on their date: hiding behind trees during their stroll in the gardens; scaling windows outside the museum; hopping across buildings whenever they traveled with a cab. She also spots Orphan casually sitting on a park bench, reading an oversized newspaper, not bothering to make herself less suspicious. 

As they walk in the streets, Marinette stops and looks straight at Felix. “Let’s go to a love hotel.” 

“Ma belle, your father will have a heart attack.” 

“I don’t care. As long as it gets us some privacy.” 

“They will stage a crime scene there to keep us out.” 

She muffles her frustrated scream against his chest. They will, won’t they? 

—

Marinette slams Bruce’s home office door open, fuming in her stomps. “Dad.” She fearlessly faces him head on. “I want to file a restraining order.”

Intro

Hello and welcome to my blog! My name is Bee and I'm a fanfic author. My pronouns are she/they and I'm a demi-girl. I've only recently started writing, about two months as of 26/4/24. I've had tonnes of support from my family and friends and have been really enjoying myself. Right now I have two works in progress, both multi-chapter, although I've posted neither yet. When I do eventually post, feel free to draw fanart or take inspiration from it! I don't mind if you take the concept, character designs, or really anything else as long as you give credit and don't plagiarise. If there's a funny line or something you want to use lmk and we can work something out.

I have three blogs specifically made for fanfics and fanfic-related stuff along with my main/personal one, which may be linked at a later date - I haven't decided yet. This one is for my fanfics, another for art and text posts, and a third for reblogs and asks. This is because it's much easier to keep organised and no one has to sort through the entire blog just to find a specific type of post. These blogs are for Miraculous Ladybug only whereas my main/personal one includes posts and reblogs from all fandoms I partake in.

About me:

I mostly read miraculous ladybug but I occasionally dabble into maribat, although chances are I will write few, if any, maribat fics.

My favourite fictional character is Felix Graham de Vanily although I'm partial to Marinette and all her variants - especially those with a miraculous other than the ladybug, Luka Couffaine, Adrien Agreste and all his variants, Alix Kubdel, Alya Cesaire, most if not all the kwamis, and some miscellaneous characters from other fandoms.

Absolutely obsessed with cats

Favourite shows include but are not limited to Miraculous Ladybug, Hazbin Hotel, Helluva Boss, and Castle

My absolute favourite game is Hollow Knight but I also enjoy Minecraft and Inscryption.

Isabella (Marinette) Martha Wayne

by Hellishere7980

Isabella or Marinette's childhood shaped her. Living with Bruce, Alfred, Dick and Jason was great! Even when Bruce treated her like a china doll. Getting shipped away? Not so much. Isabella or should I say Marinette's journey to butt kicking.

Demon Spawn System

"Okay, I'm doing this for my own benefit..."

chapter >

Died at the hands of The Heretic, Damian Wayne Al Ghul met his fate with dignity and grace as he accepted death as a natural process. As embarrassed as he was to lose a match against his own clone, the mere copy of him; the boy was honorable and undaunted until the last minute of his existence.

However, there came a time when he regained consciousness, and the first thing he saw was not the face of his father with those held features and the frown under the Batman mask, no. Rather, the beautiful face of the devil himself in a designer suit, the person who had his existence at the mercy of his pale hands adorned with pianist's fingers. He was tall, skinny, but under the suit you could see that he was no wimp, for all was worth, the stranger looked elegant, who's legs were so long that he could easily reach the perfect height to be a model. The boy seemed to be around 17-18 years old, as opposed to Damian who was only in his tender 15 years.

"Damian Wayne, heir of the league of assassins and the latest Robin to hold the mantle, eh? Not bad~ Thinking that I could get your soul was not something that was in my calculations, but I'm not complaining at all about this twist in events." With a sly smile, the blond boy received him with a quizzical look that ran over the body of the deceased fleetingly as if he were inspecting it. Damian instantly felt uncomfortable and tried to attack, pointing his sword at the blonde's neck, but his victim didn't flinch.

"Who the hell are you?! Speak up or I'll cut your throat!" Furiously the shorter one complained, but he was clearly not having the desired effect on the older boy.

"Are you done? I'm here to talk business. Naturally it didn't take long for you to realize that you're dead. But if you can do something for me, I can resurrect you back to your normal life. But how improper of me! Where are my manners? My name is Félix, Félix Graham de Vanily." That deal was unbelievable, too much to be true, so there must be a trick involved, Damian thought, who soon questioned with interest, more concealing his intentions.

"How can I believe you? And what do you expect me to do?" Those questions from the dark-haired boy were something that the blue-eyed man had anticipated, and without saying a word he simply snapped his fingers, showing him to the surroundings of the two holographic screens full of information. In one of them was Damian's profile, compiling all of his personal information about his civilian and heroic identities, as well as his movie life records organized by date into each folder; Likewise, entire unopened folders floated around him in color codes that Felix himself knew how to distinguish even without labels.

"Fair enough. Although your actions within the league have been deceitful and have caused a great deal of negative emotions, your duties as Robin have helped redeem yourself, thus the universe has given you a second chance. Naturally, you must be able to restore balance, and you have been chosen to become an agent of the divine Systema just like your predecessor, your butler Alfred Pennyworth." The taller one suddenly raised a hand and with his index finger called one of the folders so that it floated towards his hand, suddenly opening and revealing the life-size three-dimensional figure of the aforementioned when he was much younger. A handsome 25 year old Alfred wearing a general's outfit full of elite insignia that conglomerated his achievements.

"Is that… Alfred?"

"Yes. Your grandfather before me was the former leader of The divine balance system. He gracefully retired on a perfect winning streak. Agent A was admired by most of our agents as the ultimate executor of bastards."

"Yes… That sounds like Alfred. You've got me, Graham. But I need to know the terms of the contract before I agree."

"Naturally."

The pair facing each other were more alike than they could assume at first glance. Both were intelligent and strategic, capable of bringing their enemies to their knees begging for a second chance, masters of martial arts and deception itself. Felix in particular had criminal abilities as an illusionist and a thief, but if Damian lost at anything, it was in business intelligence.

"Listen, Wayne. Your mission is much more complicated than what I would assign to a rookie. But being you one of ex-agent A's trusted people and after reading your file as Robin, I can't find a better candidate for this mission. You need to transmigrate in the miraculous universe and solve the consequences distribution disaster immediately, and when the system decides that you have achieved a successful job, the points you have accumulated will help you pay your debt to the universe to re-incarnate. And once you have enough points, you will have a chance to revive." The stern eyes of his now leader had a certain hint of regret, as if this mission was especially personal for him, and although Damian noticed it, he preferred to save his impressions for when he had more information. Thus, he silently nodded and accepted the electronic tablet that the older gave him into his hands, open in the file that he had to read in detail. In it were the general description of the universe and its respective problems.

Damien then began to read aloud.

"Paris, France. Under the terrorist attack of Hawkmoth, a villain capable of turning basic human emotions into lethal weapons of destruction, turning civlians into monsters. Syren being the best example of that. Oh… Here's a hyperlink for more information… Uhm … I see, the protectors of France are teenagers with no previous training who were forced into the mission without a mentor during their first months, after that, their guardian was compromised and lost his memories, so the new guardian is in the most dangerous position now."

"Indeed. Saving Ladybug from akumatization is our priority if we want to save this universe from Hawkmoth, she is the most competent heroine among several universes I have visited, but the plot is against her in many aspects, to the point of blaming her for actions that she didn't provoke, and lay the consequences that others have earned into her. To be honest, I feel a little sorry for the girl."

"She started her heroine career at when she was 13 years old with no mentor… If Batman were here, he would be having a heart attack listening to all this shit…"

His companion nodded in response, in agreement with his new recruit's casual comment. After that he clapped his hands twice, and behind the two slowly appeared a couple of individual sofa for eachother; Felix wasted no time taking a seat, while Damian turned back a bit perplexed that he hadn't seen those chairs right there before, only to then sit across from his employer.

"Wayne, your duty is to infiltrate a class of your choice in Françoise Dupont, and discover on your own the identities of the heroes to save Ladybug. I am not allowed to give you more information, as not to upset the balance, since the clue that I've given you is big enough. But I warn you to be careful around Adrien Agreste, your main target." Graham de Vanily's face suddenly turned somber, something that alarmed the recently deceased, and on alert he decided to read his file in search of any clues. Nothing else seemed suspicious.

"Adrien Agreste? He doesn't seem very smart, but that could be a mask. What threat does he pose? Do you need me to kill him?" He suggested, but Felix denied much to the juvenile killer's notorious disappointment.

"No, that would be giving him a very easy way out to play the martyr, plus it wouldn't help you get points. But in case it wasn't clear before, that boy is not your ally. I need you to destroy his resources, since his plot armor is too powerful. In fact the most brazen I've ever seen from a male lead, as you'll find out when you finish reading his background, which is why I personally got the right kwami to assist you in your quest as your ally." And with a determined smile, the demon stood up from his seat suddenly, extending to the minor the golden pen that rested in the pocket of his suit. And in front of him a contract materialized in the air prepared under the conditions that the two of them discussed earlier. Said contract would force Félix to fulfill Damian's wish when the time came.

A searing silence, a white room, and in the center, the black kwami in question looking at him with a triforce of huge eyes, and a shark smile. He called himself Null, a creature small enough to hide in his pocket, a being of few words much to the relief of the former hero, who was in no mood to deal with a chatty fellow.

Once the contract was signed, The divine system of balance accepted the former blood prince as one of its own.

The big Scam

It's 2:15 am where I am, but I just had to write this down and now it's your problem 😅

AU maybe a bit "Roaring Twenties"? No Miraculous, could be Maribat Bio Dad Bruce, rich Marinette -> I think I'm going to call these kind of stories "Not a Cinderella Story"

Since his family lost everything, Felix gets by as a con artist. Now his cousin Adrien is down on his luck, too: His mother died years ago and after losing his company his father disappeared with his assistant.

Felix decides to help the only family member he has left but this turns out to be difficult. Gabriel owes the wrong people money and since they can't get Gabriel, they threaten Adrien.

The solution Felix comes up with: Adrien has to convince a rich lady to marry him. But Adrien is a hopeless romantic and wants to marry for love.

Only when they learn from some magazine that Marinette is single and wealthy, he agrees to try to woo her. Marinette was once Adrien's friend and they haven't seen each other since their early teens. He was always fond of her and the idea of marrying her sounds actually nice.

So they move to where she now lives (if it's Maribat then they move to Gotham and Adrien hasn't seen Marinette since she was sent to live with her father). They get in contact with her and it seems to go well.

The people who are after Adrien find them and they try to buy themselves some time by stealing jewelry and giving them that, even though it's not enough. (Maribat: Selina notices and takes them under her wing)

Coincidentally Felix spends a surprising amount of time with Marinette and without meaning to, he falls in love with her, which is a problem. First of all, it was hard enough to get Adrien to go along with the plan. By working he would never be able to pay back his father's debt and these people are getting a bit impatient. They can't just wait for the next girl Adrien would be willing to marry. And second, he is well aware what kind of man he is and that his cousin isn't as morally bankrupt as he is. Marinette deserves the fairytale prince, the white knight on the horse. Not some crook.

Still, he can't help himself and there are moments when he thinks Marinette might feel the same. He wonders if Adrien would hate him, if he tried to woo her. Maybe he could tell her about the problems Gabriel left Adrien with. Would she help her old friend even if she didn't marry Adrien but Felix instead?

But whatever budding romance Felix thought he might have with Marinette seems lost when her protectors learn about his past and his and Adrien's plan. To protect Marinette from the truth, they are willing to give them the money they need, if they leave and never bother her ever again. Otherwise they will show Marinette all the proof they compiled. (In a Maribat I picture this to be Damian and Tim who proposed an alliance to protect Marinette: Damian is very protective of his sister and Tim has the instinct to immediately or at least pretty soon doubt Adrien's intentions. He did the research, compiled the proof and got the money ready. Being confronted by Tim's ice cold logic and calculations and Damian's fiery temperament - and maybe sword - should intimidate even Felix)

Mistake?

Tim had made a mistake, of course he didn’t realize it was a mistake until much later.  In fact he didn’t realize his mistake until it was staring him in the eyes.  Literally.  The memory of the mistake rushed into his mind, and if someone was wondering what that mistake was, it was sipping from a cup of water that Lex Luther had given him.  He was such an idiot!  Of course Lex would take advantage of his stupidity to make a clone, except strangely enough, his clone was female.  She was trapped in a glass cylinder, fidgeting and obviously anxious until she noticed him, and she was just staring at him and his team.  Above the glass cage she was trapped in was a sign that was labeled, Project M-a01r.  

He knew it was his clone, they had the same eyes, skin color, hair color, and facial structure as him along with a feature or two from someone else that was not Luther.  He was snapped out of his stupor by Conner tapping his shoulder.

“Red, are you okay?”

He asked hesitantly.  Tim startled at the touch but quickly nodded back and responded with a quiet and shocked unconvincing,

“Yea, fine.”

The girl in the tube hesitantly lifted her hand and pressed it against the glass as she leaned closer to it as well, but not close enough to fog up the glass with her breath.  Tim took a few hesitant steps forward and quickly analyzed her before placing his hand in front of hers.  The girl looked shocked before she gave him a bright blinding smile like no one had ever bothered to pay attention to her.  He looked over at the electronic pad next to the glass prison and quickly moved towards it to find as much information as he could.

Project M-a01r

Male gene: Tim Drake

Female gene: Bridgette Graham de Vanily

Tim looked further into the information that the device could give him only to be once again snapped out of his trance by one of his teammates, Cassie this time.

“Red Robin!”

She shouted, which meant that they had been trying to get attention for a bit then.  Oops.  She let out a frustrated sigh before crossing her arms and lifting a silent judgmental brow with her eyes shifting to the glass case still holding a now dejected girl.  His clone mixed with someone else’s DNA.  

“Right, sorry.”

He turned back to the device he quickly hacked into it and opened the glass casing much to the girl’s shock.  Hesitantly she stepped forward and quickly retreated when Con approached her.

“Hey, it’s okay.  I understand that this may be weird and shocking for you, but we’re gonna get you out of here, okay?”

Con slowly telegraphed his movements so that she could watch him lift his arm out as an invite to take it.  Hesitantly she extended her arm out as well and took Con’s hand taking slow small steps till she was standing next to him.  She was very small, smaller than Tim, he wondered if that was his fault or this so-called Bridgette’s fault that it happened.  He hoped that she wasn’t actually done growing though, because he didn’t want her to be exactly 5’ forever.

“Looks like you’re a dad now Red.”

Cassie said with an elbow to his side.  He glared at her and rubbed his side.

“No.”

Everyone turned to stare at him in shock.

“No?”

Con asked shocked, hurt, and slightly angry.

“What I mean is, that sounds and looks weird and wrong.  I’d rather be her brother.”

Everyone nodded at that.  He was only 17, it would indeed be weird if he was a “dad”.  An older brother sounded much more reasonable, especially because the girl looked to be about 14.

“We should also find out who this Bridgette is so that we can inform her of the situation.”

Marinette tilted her head and her nose scrunched in confusion.

“Are we not going to the lab?”

The girl spoke for the first time, confusion heavily lacing her voice that held an unexpected french accent.  Conner looked at her with sympathy in his eyes as he pulled her closer to his chest.

“No, we’re going to get you out of here.”

He promised with a firm voice.  She looked at him with awe in her eyes.  Tim really hated Cadmus, there was always something shady happening here.  He felt bad for Guardian, he was trying so hard to clean this place up, but as long as Lex Luthor was the CEO, it would never be clean.  They quickly got out of the underground bunker and left towards Mt. Justice.

“Hey, do you have a name?”

Conner asked her quietly as she shrunk into his side farther as true sunlight for her very first time.  She slowly shook her head and was grateful when Red Robin took off his cape and placed it on her, flipping the hood over her to shade her eyes.

“Would you like to pick one?  Or do you want one of us to?”

“I wouldn’t mind if one of you came up with one.”

She mumbled shyly fidgeting with her fingers.  Everyone looked at Tim with a raised brow silently saying, you better not mess it up.  Tim gulped and thought over names in his mind trying to come up with one that wasn’t bad or stupid.

“Umm, how about Marinette?”

He said, well more like questioned, nervously.  The others thought it over and nodded.

“That name sounds crash!”

Bart said as he ran up to the girl.

“What do you think?”

“I think it’s a nice name.”

She said with a small smile.

“Good job Boy Wonder.  You actually found a good name.”

Cassie said with a small smirk.  Tim rolled his eyes under the mask.

“Have a little faith, I’m not that bad.”

“You absolutely are that bad.”

She said wryly, the smirk on her face never leaving.  Tim sighed as they arrived at their vehicles.  He side eyed Con as he helped Marinette into the sidecar of the motorcycle Sphere turned into.  There was something going on there, and as her new big brother, he was obligated to be suspicious of this.

~~~~~~~~~~ Marinette and Tim stood in front of the gates to the Graham de Vanily mansion.  They had found Bridgette who was currently living with her husband, Felix Graham de Vanily, in London.  They had contacted her before, but today was the day they were going to meet her.  Marinette fidgeted with the sleeves of her shirt looking down at her feet.  Tim gently took her hand into his and gave it a small squeeze.

“It’s going to be okay, Bean.  I’m sure she’ll love you.”

Marinette let out a long breath and nodded looking straight forward with a spark of confidence in her eyes that she always got when she felt like she had to get something done when under pressure.  She felt Tim's hand slip into hers and squeezed it before she rang the bell.  She gasped and stepped back in surprise when the gates immediately opened up for them.  Tim smiled and had to stifle a laugh as he pulled her towards the large estate in front of them.  A short girl with black hair dressed in a black and red sundress ran towards them at top speed.

“Bridgette!  Slow down or you’ll scare her off!”

A blonde man, who must have been Felix, called from the doors.  Bridgette stopped right in front of the two and quickly took both of Marinette’s hands into hers.

“You must be Marinette!  It’s so amazing to meet you!  We’re going to be the best sisters ever!  I’ll take you shopping, and we can go out to festivals, and have sleepovers, and I can teach you how to bake!”

Bridgette’s voice got higher with every suggestion as she also began to bounce on her toes.  Marinette stared at the woman in shock and held as still as she could as Bridgette bounced up and down.  Her head soon snapped to Tim, and he had to will himself to not take a step back.

“So you're her other donor?  Tim Drake-Wayne?”

“Yes, it was quite a shock to learn that this happened.”

He said as he stuck out a hand for her to shake.  Instead she launched herself and wrapped him into a hug with one arm while she hugged Marinette with her other.

“No handshakes!  We might as well be siblings now!”

“R-right.”

Tim stuttered, slightly flustered.  Marinette giggled at him as she leaned into the warm comfort she got from the hug.  The next thing either of them knew was that they were both being pulled towards the mansion and being brought through the main hall to a modest sitting room.

“Alright!”

Bridgette announced loudly as her husband jokingly rolled his eyes as he sat down next to her with much more grace than his wife.

“I call dibs on spending time with her in the Summer!  I also get visitation rights whenever I am able to come to Gotham.  You can also come visit during Summer, but I get the majority of her time.  Deal?”

Tim thought it over for a bit before nodding and sticking out his hand.

“Deal.”

Bridgette smiled brightly with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

“Perfect, now that we have that settled, we’re going shopping!”

She announced with finality, punctuating it by standing up and taking Marinette’s wrist and dragging her out the door.  Tim and Felix stared at the door then looked at each other.  Felix was smirking and shaking his head amusedly while Tim bit his lip to hold back his amusement at the panic and confusion that covered Marinette’s face.

“Would you like to grab some tea?”

Felix asked politely.  Tim gave him a small smile and nodded.

“Tea sounds wonderful.”

~~~~~~~~~~ Tim no longer thinks that it was a mistake to have fallen for Luthor's trick.  He loved his new sister.  Turns out that his coffee addiction is genetic as she too has the same need for it after her first time trying it.  Bridgette was pissed when she found out as she does not like coffee in the slightest.  Felix thought it was funny and sometimes gave her some of his when she visited.  Another amazing thing was that it turns out she had trace amounts of magic in her blood as Bridgette had told them about her time using the miraculous of luck and creation for many years.  She was a very fast learner and was able to analyze then perform moves almost immediately after watching them.  The only thing that they both wished she was better at was lying.  She was really bad at it, but that never stopped them from wreaking havoc.  Another thing that he didn’t agree with was how she and Jason got along like a house on fire.  So when the three of them were teamed up for prank wars, everyone knew that the world had a high possibility of ending.  The final thing that concerned him was her and Conner.

He had overheard many of the conversations that the two had over the phone.  And when she went to Mt. Justice, she was always dressed a little more stylish than when she left the house any other time.  If his suspicions were correct, then Con would have to go through the entire batfam giving him the shovel talk.  Even from Damian.  As soon as he learned that she had an interest in art but didn’t know what she should do, he had practically kidnapped her and helped her learn different techniques and his entire art room.  It was rather cute really, especially since they met up every Thursday from 4 to basically the end of the day.  Dick and her had bonded over her interests in arial arts, watching them perform on the trapeze was amazing.  Anyone that watched them would immediately know that both of them were born to be in the air.  

Marinette liked to stay by Tim as much as possible though.  Because while she had this amazing confidence, she could immediately become shy and small in a second.  Marinette often had nightmares of being in the “lab”.  She never really talked about it, but he could tell that whatever had happened there was absolutely terrible.  When her nightmares got really bad she would always go to Tim’s room and often he would be sitting in his bed working on a case on his laptop.  She would curl up in his lap and while he continued to work he would run his fingers gently through her hair and quietly mumble the case facts to help her fall back asleep.  Sometimes when it was really bad she would take his cases away and snuggle with him until they both fell asleep together.  And when he was on patrol she would wait in the cave with Alfred and help monitor or work the comms.

One of the most precious moments of her in the cave was when Bruce was benched because of a broken leg, but still wanted to work on the cases from the Batcomputer.  When everyone had returned from patrol it was to a sleeping Marinette leaned against a still awake Bruce with a small, soft, content smile on his face.  

The Summers without her seemed long and almost unbearable.  It was weird not having her and her bubbly personality missing from the manor, so he and the others found themselves visiting London more often than not.  They even began to look to build a new Wayne Enterprises there, and if the Graham de Vanily’s were helping to fund a large portion of it, well it was strictly for business purposes.

All in all, Superman lied.  Having a clone of himself and a bit of someone else was great.  Marinette was an amazing person.  And a just as amazing hero.  

The only thing that was the downfall of it is that now she is dating Conner, and he has to watch the two flirt all of the gosh darn time!  The worst part is when they did it on purpose specifically to annoy him.  He loved the two, he did.  Conner was his best friend and Marinette was his sister, but sometimes he wanted to slap them if it wouldn’t lead to his demise.  

Tim took a sip of his coffee as the whole family gathered in the movie room together watching a stupid B list movie together and talking over each other to comment on how terrible it was and why.  He let out a small content sigh and let his eyes drift shut with the feeling of content and love surrounding him.  He wouldn’t trade Marinette for anything, she was honestly the glue that was keeping them together and that has helped them heal.  Screw Superman, clones are awesome.

I unknowingly got into Baldur's gate 3, so yk damn well

Tav as Marinette, cause, of course.

The rest could be crossover characters, I'm funnily thinking of Felix or Damian as Astarion but Felix would fit the role more since Astarion's white hair, Shadowheart could be Kagami, uhh

Who the fuck would fit the other characters?

(Brain rots make me go insane)

[pawsitivelymiraculous]

Does anyone have a link to the Felinette comic that's Felinette where mari calls "fanon" Felix to tell him how she just met "canon" Felix? I need to show it to a friend
