Chapter 2: The Plan

“Are you sure?” voiced Nino. Chloé rolled her eyes, Nino and his damn pacifism, why did he have to be the voice of reason in all of this?

“Yes I am sure,” Chloé snapped back, inspecting her nails. "They have gone too far. Lila's reign has gone on for too long, she needs to be put in her place."

"For once, I agree with Chloé," Nathaniel said, swatting Chloé’s leg away as she tried to kick him off the chaise.

"I don't know if we should guys…" Marinette stated, not moving from the hug.

"She ruined your commission sketchbook! She needs to be taken down," Kim replied, tired of dealing with Lila's bullshit.

"Maybe we should take a stance, Mari. She's been harassing you for too long," Nino said, surprising everyone else.

"You've never been one to straight up agree with our group. What's the change of heart Lahiffe?" Chloé teased him.

"I'm still a pacifist Chloé, but no one hurts my friends and gets away with it. I'm not joining in the violence, but she needs to be taken down," Nino replied sternly.

Chloé had an evil smile on her face, as she turned her body to sit instead of lounging on the chaise. She looked at everyone there, before turning her direction towards Marinette.

"Well. We just need our empress to agree," she said, a knowing grin on her face.

Marinette stayed still but soon sat up in her bed, moving away from Nino and taking the blanket off. Red, puffy eyes stared back at Chloé, evidence of the hurt she felt.

"Let’s fuck this bitch up."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the Agreste mansion, Adrien sat in his room, feeling like an utter bag of shit. His advice led to this. His advice caused more pain to Marinette than he thought was happening. Guilt had washed over the blonde, knowing that he could have done something to stop this sooner. Marinette was one of his closest friends, and he ignored her feelings for the feelings of a two faced faux.

But alongside the guilt laid anger. Lila had gone back on their promise. She hurt Marinette behind his back. She had lied once more.

It was time for that lie to be her last.

Sitting up from his self wallowing blankets and pillows, he knew he had to do something.

"Plagg, what should I do?"

Plagg looked over at his chosen, Camembert cheese still in his paws. He saw a new side to Adrien and knew it was time for a change.

"Well," he started, "you could start by apologizing."

"How would I be able to apologize for something like this? I royally screwed up," Adrien replied, falling back on his bed again.

"So ask Ladybug for advice."

Adrien sat there, contemplating Plaggs words. Ask Ladybug? She doesn't like when he talks about his personal life. However, she would be the best person to get advice from.

Deciding then, he would talk to Ladybug during their next patrol together. Thank kwami the weekend was close.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back at the bakery, a plan was brewing. Marinette had already dried her eyes and pulled down her planner. Thankfully, she changed the planner to remove Adrien's schedule. Looking back on that she internally cringed, god she took that crush a bit far.

Chloé had Marinette's old book out, which held every information on each student in the school. Everything from their crimes, to their good deeds, were recorded, along with family social economic status and how much money was donated to the school.

Max had his laptop out, finding every information he could about Lila. Markov was over his shoulder, helping in the research. Kim was, helping? He mostly just wrote some stuff down in the notebook next to Max. He made jokes most of the time, trying to help keep up morale.

Nino was next to Nathaniel, helping create a game plan for their comeback. Everyone knew they would have to go to Aurore and Mireille to spread the word about the Royal Primaries coming back.

Marinette turned from her spot at the schedule, marker in hand after writing down some basic plans.

"Alright. I think I have an idea of how to do this."

Everyone turned their attention away from their task and focused their eyes on her. Marinette stepped to the side to reveal what she had.

The calendar showed them the rest of the month, with that rest of the week dedicated to getting everything they needed ready. Clothes had to be bought, pins had to be found and any broken repaired, and they needed to get their Royal Shades in on the business. The rest of the month was blank, besides their comeback for the next Monday.

"Any ideas for when we should do anything?" Marinette asked.

"I was thinking. We let Lila think she's safe with a faulty pin. I know Nathaniel’s family could get something made," Chloé suggested.

Nathaniel nodded in agreement, "I can see what I'll be able to do. No guarantees though."

"Alright, and I was thinking Chloé, what if we have Sabrina, Juleka, and Rose as our undercover girls? I know Sabrina is already faking, but I think we need more for backup," Marinette said while adding the pin idea to the board.

"That would increase our success rate by 36.78%. However, what if Lila sees past it?" Max added on.

"Oh please. Lila is an attention whore, having three people eat up her words will send her over the moon," Chloé sassily responded.

Max shrugged at her comment as Marinette added the secret spies to the list.

"Anything else?" She asked.

"I want to try and talk to Alya. Hopefully, get through to her about Lila," Nino said solemnly.

A silence hung in the air. Everyone knew that Alya was one of Lila's biggest followers, her blog had basically become the Lilablog instead of the Ladyblog.

"I know it may be hard," Nino started out, "but I still want to try. She's my girlfriend after all."

A silent agreement was made. Everyone knew it wouldn't end well, but it was worth a try? Maybe?

"I'll make sure that there's ice cream," Chloé said before turning her attention back to Marinette, "well?"

"We have a plan now."

Opinion: I usually recommend long fics but this is amazing! And I love the just desert feeling you get from reading this and I can help but recommend it as a quick read.

[demontouched]

what's something you'd like to see in the punk/hbic!mari story? (also, strap in, i plan on making this one a long one.) and do you want my authors notes here or on the story?

[the-primaries-au]

Warning: This chapter contains mentions of suicide, harassment, comments of psychopathy, a brief panic attack (Not on that exact order, though)

[miraculous-magicalconnections]

What is the "classic HBIC Marinette AU's" you mentioned while talking about Socqueline's new personality?

Also do you plan to add and/or remove any villain from your AU?

I read a lot of Miraculous Ladybug fanfiction and some of my favorites are the HBIC (head bitch in charge) Marinette fics where her personality leans more on the "mess with my friends/family and I'll kill you"

Socqueline's personality isn't as aggressive as that but she's very protective of the people she cares about, and if you hurt her family or friends she'd be the first to throw out the "I can beat them up"

When it comes to primary antagonists? No, Gabriel, Lila, and Nathalie are still the main villains

But Akumas and Sentimonsters? I do have plans to have a few side villains to be original and I have ideas for potential altered Akumatized forms for a few characters, but nothing set in stone at this point

The war between Hawkmoth, Ladybug and Chat Noir never occurred.

Lila still controls the school and Marinette is at worst, the pariah.

But what happens when the pariah turns the tables and takes the crown and Lila's court?

Is it merely the underdogs taking what's theirs?

Chapter 3:  The Preparations

The next day at school went fine, in standards of Collège Françoise Dupont. The place had gone downhill over the years. Lila was still the reigning "queen", she still had all of her posies, and the true rulers of the school had still not come forward. Mireille sighed to herself, leaning against the railing on the upper balcony. Most of the school knew Lila was lying, so why couldn't the Akuma class realize that? Aurore came over to her with a coffee in hand, offering a smile. Mireille took it with a small smile, taking a sip from it. 

"They still haven't realized?" Aurore questioned before taking a sip of her own coffee. 

"Nope," Mireille replied, popping her p, "not even that wannabe reporter girl has figured it out."

The girls shook their heads, giggling a bit at the fact they were in sync. They had been dating since getting over the Stormy Weather incident, Aurore still feeling the need to continue apologizing. They had been close before that incident, thanks to being a part of the Royal Shades, but until that year, they've never been in a relationship with one another. 

"Oh look, Marinette's here," Aurore said, snapping Mireille's attention to the front of the school. Marinette made eye contact with them, before smiling and making her way up the stairs to them. 

"Hey girls, can I speak with you guys real quick?" Marinette asked.

"Of course, at The Spot?" Aurora replied.

"Yes, make sure there's no one else. We have some developments," Marinette said before waving to them as she left.

The Spot had been a place that the Color Court had found in the school, an old classroom that hardly ever gets used. It had become the unofficial school meeting room of the Color Court, even teachers knew to stay away from it. It was a small room, in a corner hallway. You wouldn't even know it was there unless you were looking. Kim had found it once when he was wandering the school looking for his new classroom. 

The girls continued to talk and gossip until the bell rang, signaling that they had to go to class. But they knew that at lunch, the biggest scoop was about to come in.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nino was on a mission. He had to find his girlfriend and have a serious talk with her. Mentally preparing himself for the fallout, he walked into the locker room to find Alya and Lila talking. Frowning to himself, he made his way over. Alya's face lit up as she saw her boyfriend make his way to them. Lila on the other hand had a scowl that could kill, but instantly changed her expression when Alya looked back at her. Nino caught her face but chose to not mention it at this point. He turned his attention to his girlfriend, taking her hand. 

"Hey babe, could we talk real quick?" Nino asked, turning his face to Lila, "alone please?"

"Sure, what's up?" Alya asked.

"I'll tell you when we're alone ok," Nino said again, pointing a look at Lila.

"Lila, could you leave so I can talk with Nino?" Alya asked, turning her attention to the Italian. 

"Oh, of course. See you in class bestie," Lila replied, giving Nino a look before walking off. 

"So what did you want to talk about?" Alya asked, turning towards Nino once more. 

"It's about Lila."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Marinette, Chloé, and Nathaniel had agreed not to mingle in public, to keep the appearance that nothing was going on. Oh, how naive the school was. A storm was brewing, and they did not know it. 

Marinette got to the classroom, where she was immediately met with Juleka and Rose. Smiling at them, she walked to her seat in the back of the classroom. Juleka and Rose followed her, everyone else took to ignoring them. 

"The Spot, lunchtime."

Juleka gave a knowing nod, while Rose instantly hugged Marinette.

"I'm sorry we didn't say anything sooner. We were so scared of what Lila would have done," was all Rose said, trying not to cry. 

"Hey it's ok, you guys are here now, it's not like Lila has her hands on you," Marinette responded, comforting Rose. 

Their hug was cut by Lila walking into the room. Most of the class immediately got around her desk, listening to her stories. Marinette leaned closer to Juleka and Rose, whispering two words.

"Magenta, Pixie."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What do you mean Nino?" Alya asked in pure disbelief, "Lila would never do something like that! Marinette is the jealous one who is bullying her!"

"I know it's hard to believe babe, Lila has been feeding this victim lie into you kind for so long, but I am telling the truth. I would never lie to you babe," Nino responded, almost pleading with her to believe him. 

"No! Marinette is the bully! She is jealous of Adrien liking Lila over her!" Alya retorted. How dare her boyfriend accuse a victim of bullying!

"Babe. I am telling the truth," Nino repeated, quieter this time. 

"No, no you aren't. I can't believe you are defending a bully! You aren't the same person I fell in love with!" Alya responded. 

Nino stood there, silent for a second, before shaking his head in disbelief. "No Alya. I haven't changed. But you definitely have, I'm sorry but I can not continue this relationship if you believe I am lying about something as serious as this. We're done Alya, you're not the same anymore."

And with that, Nino walked away from Alya, leaving her in shock. Alya stood there, replaying the conversation over and over in her head. The bell ringing pulled her out of her thoughts. 'Nino was wrong,' she thought to herself, 'Lila would never lie. He'd realize that and come back to her, he had to.' Alya headed to class, making herself believe that it wasn't true, Nino couldn't be done with her. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Class came and went, as the bell for lunch rang. While everyone made their way to the cafeteria, courtyard, or home, a group of students disappeared to an unknown room. The classroom was small, with a single table in the center with ten different colored chairs around it. Several other chairs were laid out around the room, for any guests who were possibly invited to the meetings. A corkboard hung on one of the walls, currently only holding old papers and notes. On the wall opposite to it was a dry erase board. The place wasn't covered in a layer of dust as expected, the janitor must have come in for cleaning. If he did, he never moved anything around. 

At the table were several dishes of food, as the meeting was expected to cover all of the lunch period. Chloé sat in her yellow chairs, placed at the left side of the blue chair. Nino was next to her, in a green chair. Max at his side, in his purple chair. Kim was in an orange chair, Mireille in a pink chair, Aurore in a teal chair, and Rose and Juleka were in their respective pixie and magenta chairs. Nathaniel sat in his red chair, looking at the door. Everyone was waiting for Marinette to show up, no doubt having ran into an issue. Marc and Sabrina sat in some extra chairs behind their partners. Sabrina was scrolling through her tablet, gathering information. 

The door finally opened up, an out of breath Marinette in its frame. Closing the door behind her, she sat in the final chair, the blue chair. 

"Sorry about that, I had to shake some people."

The meeting was finally in session, as Sabrina stood up and walked to the dry erase board, uncapping her marker. On the board she wrote out Lila's name, before making several lines leading from it. 

"As we know, Lila is a huge liar. Since the day she came here, she has claimed to do Go Green campaigns with Prince Ali, had saved Jagged Stones kitten from a tarmac, that Clara Nightingale took her dance moves and claimed them as her own, and that she was a descendant of the Fox Hero, Volpina," Sabrina said, writing as she went, "were there anymore lies?"

"She claimed she knew a lot of movie and music producers in Hollywood."

"I'm pretty sure that her two month trip to Achu was a lie."

"Are we even sure her mom is an ambassador?"

"She lies about Marinette every day!"

The list grew and grew as people started voicing their doubts into the air. Max was typing away on his laptop, likely researching several points everyone was making. Marinette stood up, silencing everyone in the room. She walked over to the board, taking the marker from Sabrina. On the board, she wrote down 'Claiming to be besties with Ladybug.'

The room remained silent, this girl seriously lied about being friends with a hero. The single thing Ladybug is against doing. 

"How did you find that out?" Max asked. 

"Ladybug came down and confronted her about it, Adrien was there," Marinette responded.

"How did you find out?" Kim asked, having a look on his face. 

"Lila had taken a book from him, it's what got Adrien pulled from school for a bit. I had retrieved the book when I heard her talking about Ladybug and her being Volpina. Then Ladybug jumped into the conversation, debunking everything in front of me and Adrien," Marinette explained.

"Adrien knew all along!" Nino shouted in surprise. 

"Yes."

"Why didn't he say anything!"

"We should bring him into these meetings!" 

"He may be able to help."

Marinette raised her hand to silence everyone, "As much as I would like to bring Adrien into the group. He has hurt me by telling me to take the high road. I forgive him as I understand why he would say it, but I am waiting for his apology before I bring him into the group."

There were understanding glances, however, Nino looked hurt over the news. His best bro knew and never said a thing. 

The meeting was interrupted by several screams. Kim immediately went to the door, opening it to see several students running from an akuma. 

"Meetings adjourned for today!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ladybug swung onto the scene. Chat Noir was already there, fighting the akuma. The akuma was a girl, with bleeding heart designs over her chest and back. The suit was mostly black, red, white, and pink. Black tear marks ran down the porcelain doll like face, with curly brown hair coming from the top. The weapon was her phone, which she used to bring lies out from people. 

"Who are we dealing with?" Ladybug asked, as Chat Noir was thrown to her side. 

"She calls herself the Broken Truth," Chat Noir groaned as Ladybug helped him up. 

"What caused her akumaization?"

"Her boyfriend broke up with her over what she says is lies. Can't find the ex, but that's all we have for now."

"Then let's get this over with."

The Broken Truth, that's one mouthful of a name, turned her attention to the hero duo. Holding her phone up, she sent out a beam to the heroes. Dodging the beam, Ladybug and Chat Noir quickly got behind a pillar. 

"We need another hero for this. Likely something that can restrain her," Ladybug said, already opening her yoyo. 

"So the bee miraculous?" Chat Noir asked.

"It's our only option. Hold her off while I go get Queen Bee," Ladybug said before jumping off. Chat Noir saluted to her, before returning his attention to The Broken Truth. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ladybug found Chloé hiding out in the hallway near the classroom. She ran up to her, holding out the bee miraculous. 

"Chloé, we need your help to defeat this akuma."

Chloé looked back at her in a state of shock. Quickly recovering, she retorted back "I thought you said I could never be Queen Bee again."

"Well, we had a change in plans. Do you accept?"

"Hell yeah."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ladybug and Queen Bee landed back in the courtyard, where Chat Noir was almost hit by the beam. Ladybug summoned her lucky charm, turning out to be a simple ball. This was gonna be an easy fight to finish up. 

Queen Bee summoned her stinger, striking the akuma in the back as she was distracted by Chat Noir. Chat Noir ran forward, using cataclysm on the phone. The butterfly flew out, as Ladybug swung her yoyo to catch it. Purifying the butterfly, she flung her lucky charm into the air, reversing all damage done. 

In front of them sat a sad Alya, who was looking at an old photo on her phone. It depicted her and Nino on a date, two big smiles staring back at her. Ladybug walked over to her, crouching next to her.

"Everything ok Ladyblogger?"

Alya burst into tears, hugging Ladybug. Ladybug was in shock but hugged her back. 

"My, my boyfriend broke up with me. And, and I don't know what to believe anymore with it," is all she said before being put back to sniffles and tears. 

"Well, while I am not best with relationships. I believe it is best you give him some space for now. And maybe do some self reflecting, then you two would be able to talk it all out," Ladybug responded, pulling from the hug. 

Alya nodded, looking up at the hero, "Thank you Ladybug."

"Anytime. Now, gotta go. Bug out," and with that, Ladybug swung off to a nearby building, where Chat Noir was waiting. He handed her back the bee miraculous, Chloé having taken it off after the battle. 

"Hey LB, can we talk tonight during patrol. I have a really big favor to ask of you," Chat Noir said. 

"As long as it's not a date proposal, sure," she responded as she returned the bee miraculous to her yoyo. 

"Trust me, it's not. It's something very important. I fucked up with something in my civilian life and I need some advice."

Ladybug looked at him with a soft smile, "Of course I'll help you, silly kitty. Now, I gotta run before I transform back. See you tonight!" And with that, she swung away.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Marinette ran up to Ms. Bustier's classroom, late once more. The lunch period had already passed, meaning that the court will have to pick up the topic later. 

She made her way up quietly to the back of the classroom, passing a depressed looking Alya. Grimacing to herself, she knew the breakup had to do with Lila's lies. 

She wished she could help her ex-best friend, but there's only so much you could do for people.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Patrol went well that night, with the heroes ending it off laying on the observation deck of the Eiffel Tower. Paris's lights shimmered in the background, as the stars were made invisible by their light pollution. 

"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" Ladybug asked, taking a bite from the leftover pastries she brought from home. 

"Well. I really need to know how to apologize," Chat Noir started hesitantly. Upon seeing his lady was listening, he continued. "Not going into detail, but I never had the best home life, especially socially growing up. I didn't have many friends, so I never really learned how to say sorry. Especially for a big fuck up like what this situation is."

"What happened to cause the fuck up? Vague to avoid identities," Ladybug asked. 

"A few months ago," Chat Noir began, "a new girl came to school. She was instantly liked, but I soon found out it was all lies she was telling. Well, she was targeting a friend of mine with hero lies, and of course, the dumb advice I gave her was to take the high road. It always worked for me, because I was never hurt by lies before. However, my friend was hurting because of her lies, and I was too oblivious to see it. And now I don't know how to apologize to her."

Ladybug sat in silence. That situation sounded so similar to her's and Adrien's situation with Lila. Pushing the possibility of Chat Noir being Adrien awayy, she sat up and faced Chat Noir. 

"If I were your friend. I would like for you to be sincere about your apology. Admit what you did was wrong and why it was wrong. I'm sure your friend would accept it. As for moving on from that, support them. Stand by their side when they are being bullied, help them deal with the effects of it. And for giving the apology, do it somewhere private. It would show that you aren't doing it for cookie points about being a good person. It shows that you care about making things right."

Chat Noir sat there in silence, taking in everything Ladybug had just said. Smiling, he hugged her. 

"Thank you so much. Your help means so much to me LB."

Ladybug smiled, hugging him back. The two sat there, embracing each other. After a while they pulled apart, packing up everything they had with them. They said their goodbyes and headed off to their homes. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Adrien landed in his room, immediately flopping on his bed. Plagg shot over to his cheese stash, gobbling the wheels like the glutton he is. Adrien laid there, smiling like an idiot. Plagg looked over at him with a questioning look on his face. 

"I'm apologizing to Marinette tomorrow."

Does any of you know any good name for HBIC? A fanfic I am about to make for Miraculous Ladybug.

I'm out of ideas for the HBIC name with group of five (as in Marinette, Chloe, Aurore, Nathaniel, and Juleka).

If you do have one please comment in the bubble chat when you see this topic in your tumblr.

The pairings are Lukagami, JuleRose, Felinette, Chloe/Nino, Alix/Max.

Alix, Max, and Rose are in Marinette's side but are spies to keep track of Lila's tales of Lies and also Bustier's teaching methods and Damocle's bribery that needs to be getting rid of. Adrien and Alya will also get into major trouble soon.

The bashings is literally right there in front obviously.

Forgot to mention that Sabrina knows the truth about Lila after tracking her down with her father by looking at the cctv cameras in local areas and school as she was rather not amused that she saw a clip of Lila grabbing the akuma in the school courtyard and also knew that she also applied another school so basically she is a spy for Marinette to reluctantly exposing Lila on live broadcasts for everyone and Lila’s past victims to see.

All Hail the Red Prince of DuPont

[saltymiraculer]

One by One

I absolutely fell in love with @unmaskedagain‘s HBIC Marinette AU, and I thought maybe I should try to write something. Enjoy!

.

As soon as the words “We’re not friends anymore,“ were uttered, the entire courtyard went silent.

Marinette raised an eyebrow. “What?“

Chloé winced. She could tell Marinette was giving the reporter every chance to take back what she had said, but alas, the death wish had been cast. “I said we’re not friends anymore, Marinette!”

Marinette made a tutting noise and looked back at her lunch. “You’re sure you want this?”

“Why wouldn’t I? You actually hurt someone, Marinette! You hurt my friend.“ Alya spat, her voice getting softer and softer towards the end.

“Then I’m sorry, guys,“ Marinette said, her voice emotionless. “but you deserve what comes your way.“ And with that, she stood up and walked away, leaving the dumbfounded group to scramble for the meaning in her last few words.

“What does she mean what comes our way?“ Alix asked to nobody in particular.

“How am I supposed to know? I wasn’t even there!“

Chloé, still watching from afar, shook her head sadly. Under all the pink polka dots and flowers, there was a stone-cold killer.

                                                         - 👑 -

When Marinette just stood up and walked away, Alya was immediately confused. This wasn’t part of the plan!

They had expected Marinette to do something along the lines of beg for their forgiveness, or shower them in gifts to regain their favor! Not–whatever that was!

But as soon as they were about to go after her, the bell rang, so they walked back to class, muttering among themselves. But whenever Alya looked at the faces of the other students, all she saw was pity and loathing, with the occasional furtive glances.

And for the life of her, she couldn’t figure out why!

When they got back to the classroom, they decided to ask the one person who seemed to know–well–anything about their situation. And whyle they weren’t exactly happy with who it was, they had to talk to Chloé.

“You can’t be serious,“ Chloé said. “You’re that dense?“

“Hey, if all you’re going to do is mock us, we’ll leave.“ Alya threatened.

Chloé rolled her eyes. “Fine. The reason everyone hates you now is because you have literal targets on your back. Happy?”

“What?“ Max spluttered. “That makes no sense! Logically, we haven’t d–“

“Can it, robo-nerd. You know how in cheerleader movies, there re always the queens of the school?“

There was a murmuring of aggreement.

“Yeah, well, it’s not just in the movies, hon. Marinette’s been the head bitch in charge since sixth grade, and I guess she took pity on you and decided to be nice. She did a great job, too,“ Chloé added as an afterthought.

“But Marinette’s just…Marinette! She’s not like that!” Alya protested.

“You wanna know why I don’t like Dupain-Cheng? Because I’ve had to compete with her for the top spot for four years. And she’s won every single time.“ She turned on the group with a vicious smirk on her face. “But you…you’ve got it in for yourselves.“

Chloé flipped her hair and walked out, as it was evident no teacher would be showing up.

Alya and the rest were confused. On one hand…Marinette. On the other hand, Marinette. What were they to do?

Apologize? Nah.

                                                        - 👑 -

Marinette walked into the empty classroom with a cold expression on her face.

“Dupain-Cheng,“ she heard distinctly, from somewhere inside the dusty area. She flipped on the lights.

“Quit it, Chlo. You don’t have to pretend to hate me anymore.“ Chloé heaved a sign and flopped onto one of the tables.

“Good. It was exhausting pretending I was such a tyrant! Have any food to help me regain my energy?“

Marinette rolled her eyes and tossed a plastic baggie of macarons in Chloé’s direction. They hit her face and she gasped dramatically. “How could this have happened to someone as majestic as I?”

“So can I have the cookies back?“

“Not a chance.“ Chloé stuck out her tongue and started munching on the treats, shrugging when Marinette glared at her playfully. “What? You gave them to me.“

Marinette sighed and laid out a map of the school.

“Here’s the plan. First, we wait for them to think what you said was just a joke.“ She moved a group of variously colored pom-poms across the map, onto where Bustier’s class was.

“And since we transferred to a different class, they’ll have a false sense of security,“ Chloé finished, catching on. “And once they think they’re in the clear, we pick them off one by one.“

“Exactly!“ Marinette beamed. “Since we’re saving Lie-la for last, let’s start with the second-worst offender.“

“Adrien.“ they said simultaneously.

Marinette pulled a white pom-pom out of the group and placed it next to a pink one and a yellow one. “I’m thinking something involving Chat.”

“Maybe ‘Ladybug’ makes a public declaration of love for Marinette Dupain-Cheng?“ Chloé suggested, wiggling her eyebrows.

“No way, Chloé!“

Chloé made a humph noise and rested her head on the desk. “Then I got nothin’.”

“No, I was thinking something along the lines of a ‘hey, Chat, do you have that one person that you’ll hate forever and ever? Mine’s Adrien Agreste’ type of scenario.“

Chloé bolted up. “That just might work!”

Marinette pulled out a fluffy black pom-pom and a glittery gold one. “And you’re going to be there to witness it.”

Marinette's family is definitely rich

The building they own is five stories tall

The bakery is on the first floor

Her parent’s room and a bathroom is on the second floor

The third floor is the living room and a dining room

Marinette’s room is the entire fourth floor

Lastly, the balcony is on the fifth floor

Their house/building is also next to the Eiffel Tower, which is a super popular tourist destination. Not to mention that France is an expensive place to live in and their building is around a very nice place. The bakery is very popular as well. In the Christmas special, we can see that the bakery gets a ton of customers which includes the mayor and a famous news reporter. Jagged Stone also filmed a special in that episode which gave them even more publicity.

Marinette has a complete set of gadgets (computer, phone, tablet/iPad, etc.) and thousands of dollars worth of sewing supplies, which is not cheap at all.

They also have a lot of famous connections. Marinette’s mom is best friends with a famous news reporter and trust Marinette enough to babysit her only child. A famous rock star chose Marinette to design his album cover when his career was in trouble because of XY. Not to mention that cover that Marinette designed got the number one spot. Jagged Stone even chose their bakery to film his special episode on. Marinette has tons of connections on her own as well but that’s for another discussion. Lastly, Marinette’s uncle is a world-famous chef, so they probably have even more connections that we don’t even know about.

Another thing is that Marinette’s grandmother travels the world full time. Traveling is expensive so that’s another point for them being rich. Marinette’s grandmother also doesn’t seem like the type of person to accept money from her sons. So where would the money come from?

One last thing is the school that Marinette attends. That school is full of children with rich and influential parents. Juleka’s mom used to be a famous rock star who played alongside Jagged Stone. Alya is the daughter of a well-known chef and her sister is a famous wrestler. Alix’s dad is a famous historian. Mylene’s dad is an actor. Lastly, Chloe is the daughter of the mayor and a famous fashion designer/critique and they own a famous hotel branch as well. We also know that Chloe’s family would not send their only daughter to a public school or some random private school. Nope, they would only send Chloe to the best school in Paris. Plus, Chloe would throw a big tantrum if she wasn’t sent to a very expensive private school. It also makes sense since Adrien attends that school. Gabriel Agreste would not let Adrien attend some random public school. Especially since he wants Adrien to maintain the perfect Agreste image.

So yeah, I’m convinced that the Dupain-Cheng’s are rich. Who knows, they might even have more money than Chloe and Adrien but, they’re just more humble about it. Who knows? This would also prove my theory of Marinette being famous or/and an influencer to be true.
