Not pictured: Marinette taking a bite of one to prove they're not poisoned or anything
I haven't talked about it that much but I loved the Paris Special!! I think afterwards they're going to be in Hesperia's hideout as a little team and making friends. Like the batfam
The character writing and emotional moments in the reverse special was probably the best the show has ever had, like Adrien opening up about his mother which he rarely does in the show?? Marinette saying she chose to love herself!! The way they showed empathy and compassion to their reverse selves because they ARE them and they RECONCILED god it was so sweet and wholesome especially the hugs
i really appreciate that the miraculous ladybug writers knew they wanted to reverse the love square, but they also wanted to stick to the established characterization of marinette being terrible at flirting and cringey around the person she likes, and ladybug being WAY more confident and self-assured. and the marriage of those concepts is ladybug very confidently saying the boldest and flirtiest shit imaginable to chat noir and then IMMEDIATELY wanting to punch herself in the face
