Can we talk about how Adrien is actually a good liar in Miraculous? And I mean, GOOD good liar, so good if he wanted, he would give Lila run for her money?

I don't know if he looks at Marinette or Croussaints
So, he is Chat Noir and the fact noone figured him out yet is placed mostly at the fact that 1. People are generally blind in this show 2. He acts so differently with the mask on actuall viewers forget he is Chat. But I want to make a case that he is second best liar in the show after Lila and only second best because he is good hearted.
But first, why would he be a good liar? Apart from having to cover his superhero identity, what other reasons he has to lie? Well, remember the saying "Strict parents raise great liars" and it shows in my opinion. Take Chloe as an opposite. She is many things but I think we never see her rely on lying to achieve what she wants. Quite the opposite, Chloe as a villain of many plots threatens to expose uncomfortable truths, she never makes things up. Or Marinnete. She can spit some lies, but she is overly dramatic anytime she has to say them. "No, me, like you, NOOOO, I just like fashion, YEAH, FASHION, that's it." "It was totally a prank, I knew all this time you were a statue, OF COURSE, what other thing would it BE?" "I'm in love with you Chat Noir". She has engaged, but preety louse parents. As long as she hits her marks and doesn't cause much trouble, Mari is let louse and can do whatever she wants without explaining herself, so she doesn't have to lie that much.
Adrien? This boy didn't have a single free second until Gabriel brough his digital rings to the market and made digital copy of Adrien to use. And yet, Adrien sneaked out to school, which Chloe knew he was coming, despite Adrien not having his fathers approval yet, sneaked out constantly out of his room, managed to run from his parents to see the movie. All while one misstep and he was severly punished. That enviroment teaches kid how to be on his toes. Strict parents raise great liars. Now to some examples:
"Technically not, because I never told him about it." The one with akumatized train. Best lies are unspoken ones. Adrien knows that everytime you lie you need to defend it so the best strategy is not to lie when simply shuting up about something suffices (that's actually something he does better than Lila, that b*tch can't shut up).
"We're not leaving, we're just gonna help a friend." Best case of 'attach the lie to the truth' strategy. We will help friend, how long will it take and where will we need to go to finish, especially given that it's Marinette? Who cares, I never lied (not the one that will most surely keep him out of trouble, but good enough in a moment for his guard and Kagami's mother to let them walk away from them)
M: "I got transformed, into a knight" A: "So do I. What a knighmare." Lanching onto someone elses explenation that is really hard to argue, while not giving time to be confronted about it AND adding a stupid joke so people's attention is divided. Important disclaimer, I don't think Adrien does it intentionally, he is just attuned to phrasing things in a way that got him into the least amount of trouble with his strict upbringing. It's more of a sharpened thru years instinct than some masterming constant chess game. Like here. He just made a joke, but it perfectly fits into him wanting to hide the truth.
"I wanted to apologize for my Kwami. I don't know what he was doing in that elementary school" Marinette as Ladybug combined mouse and fox miraculous to create an illusion of being in two places at the same time to make sure Chat doesn't suspect her of being Ladybug. Meanwhile Adrien manages to completly lose the trail of himself with one sentence. It's great on so many levels, as he not only phrases it so casually noone would think he carefully chose every word, he also attaches the lie to the truth (Plagg was acting up) and puts attention somewhere else (I apologize for his behaviour), like he didn't even mean to say it was elementary school. Everything mentioned before combined in one, casuall sentence that rivals Marinette's conveluted plan based on superpowers. Yep, he is good liar.
And last but not least, "I'm sorry I asked you stand in for me earlier. You must think I'm not very brave." If you look for advice how to lie, you will eventually meet the 'cover the truth with lie that is embarrassing/puts you in bad light' advice. Adrien is willing to weight his options and sacrifice his ego to fit whatever goal he has in mind.

And don't even get me started on how he managed to catfish Ladybug by pretending to be Catwalker for a whole night. He is so capable of twisting the truth he can bend his miraculous suit to his means. It took a bit of effort, but as far as we know, no longer than a day of practice. And also, he had his schedule filled in possibly to the last minute. But out of superhero pair, he is always the one with spare time to spend with LB. He has to lie almost everyday to everyone around, to people that get PAID to keep an eye on him, and he manages to get away with it this hole time (almost, of course there are setbacks). Really, when Adrien said in season 5 "Lila is a compulsive liar and really good at it" he knows from his own experience. Game recognizes game. Good he uses it mostly to ditch on his responsabilities and cover his superhero identity.
I haven't watch any season 6 episode yet, so I really hope this post doesn't become disproven in a moment by dumping our boy down. Miraculous has a nag for doing that.

announcing a new The Dynamic for 2025 which is “why do you get to be free” and “why cant you just be free”. All compelling relationships can be sourced to this single well
#everything is about rhaenicent except rhaenicent which is about glory to president ryan condal#if there isnt resentment what is the point of it all.#i have talked about this before but im starting to think it might be much more far reaching than my girls.#of course you can get one without the other but they will be off balance forever#a Why Do You Get To Be Free character is my favorite type of character ever. wdygtbf es numero uno#this is also jackennis and qhorinmance and a lot of things. let me think#and every relationship in black sails basically.#AND GELPHIE.

Danny did his best to ignore the person trying to wake him, but they were annoyingly persistent. After a wave of "Hey"s, "Get up"s, "You can't be here"s and one muttered, "How did you get in here?" Danny finally opened his eyes to see a boy about the same age as him staring while holding up the lid to Danny's casket.
He had thought he was done being woken up after he successfully escaped his superhero responsibilities by running away from Amity, "Am I just not allowed to rest in peace?"
"Not when it's in our attic."
The ghost boy scoffed, "Shouldn't have a casket in here if you didn't want to risk something crawling in."
The guy stared at him for a long moment before Danny decided he had enough and yanked the casket closed again, this time making sure to seal it shut with ice on the inside.
"Hey!"
The ghost rolled over with a huff, determined to ignore him.
Unfortunately, he underestimated how nosey this family could be...
#dpxdc#prompts#fanfiction prompts#danny phantom#danny fenton#tim drake#the waynes have a casket in this attic for some reason and danny took one look at it and said Free Realestate#tim knows something is wrong cause he couldnt find a pulse when he first tried to wake the intuder but he responded to his voice#tims convinced danny is undead but no one believes him#danny has no negative reaction to crosses or anything religious...except for christmas appearently#damian has tried evicting danny repeatedly. casket and all. usually through a window. he failed of course#no one can get danny out of the casket. no threats or bribes affect him. he just wants to sleep 24/7. he wont even eat which concerns them

Be wary not of the beast, but the hand that tamed it.
(Read more dog training tips over at Tiger Tiger)
#tiger tiger#rakkatak ann#remy bonnaire#jamis arlesi#Shout out to sabertoothwalrus for compiling all the Jamis Dog comparisons. For references. Of course.#Jamis *is* Remy's loyal hound and we all know it! Everyone knows it! Except apparently Remy!#The court scene made me (and many others) start barking and snarling. But no one holds a candle to Remy Bonnaire.#Something about how both Remy and Jamis have parallel scenes where they defend the honour of someone they love.#Something about how we're primed to expect it to be Jamis who displays the most open outrage - but no!#Rat man better watch it. This time it was mostly barking but next time there will be biting involved.#And dear god. The look of pure thrill and adoration in Jamis's eyes when Remy pulls out his sword.#Bark bark woof woof that man would follow him to the ends of the earth and back and just be happy to be there.#The yearning and sheer force of affection these two have for each other is so well done.#Please. If you actually haven't read Tigers yet...I am no longer asking. I'm on the floor weeping about it.

To be honest. DCxDP where the reason Danny meets the bats is Ace the Bat-hound
Like, just think about it for a second. Danny is in Gotham for college, or maybe he just moved out to find a city where having mad scientist parents isn’t actually that unusual.
He can see ghosts.
The ghosts know this.
Now he’s getting harassed left and right by spirits trying to get closure. Fine, whatever, most of them are a one-and-done type deal, and the amount of ghosts trying to get his help steadily decreases.
Except for this one very stubborn dog.
It just keeps showing up and leading him to crime scenes! He doesn’t know how many “anonymous tips” he can call in to the cops before they trace his phone! And this dog, this incredibly good boy, will not stop trying to help the city. He’s never met anyone with such a strong sense of justice, let alone a dog. Can dogs even have a moral compass?
And so Danny just accepts the fact that Ace isn’t going anywhere and becomes his reluctant sidekick/dedicated medium. He leans into the whole thing, dressing up in a mix of traditional magic-user attire and accessories that pay homage to the ghost dog.
He becomes somewhat well known. The psychopomp detective following around the shadowy figure of a German Shepard? That’s unusual! That’s weird! I mean, it’s not the weirdest thing in Gotham, sure, but he’s a new vigilante and he’s got a ghost dog that people can only see when it’s around him. Someone’s gonna notice.
Damian, as Robin, is the first to reach out to him.
Ace doesn’t know Damian but he does know a Robin, and while this isn’t his Robin, he’s still friendlier than usual. Danny’s panicking because oh god the bats are here and also is this kid gonna steal my ghost dog, Damian is absolutely delighted by Ace, and Ace is just happy to see a Robin again.
Damian decides that the psychopomp isn’t a danger to anyone, and there’s no reason to put this encounter into his reports, really, and perhaps Danny can help with some of his cases in the future.
Danny is sweating bullets because Damian basically tells him that he’ll keep him secret as long as he gets to play with Ace. Ace is happy that he’s finally getting some bat affiliated crime-fighting assistance.
And so, Danny is now both Ace AND Damian’s reluctant assistant. At least whenever he’s in trouble, he can always call a middle schooler to help him.
(Is Robin even in school? He’s out patrolling damn near every night, and he stays out late as hell. Does he have a bedtime? He should.)
Eventually it gets to the point where Damian is going over to Danny’s house. When he first sees it, he has a damn bitch you live like this moment, to which Danny responds that not everyone has the money to afford a nice place. Damian counters that he could at least take the time to clean up, and Danny replies that he’s working, going to school, and being a vigilante assistant to a ghost dog, something’s got to give.
Danny nearly has a heart attack when he checks his bank account the next day and sees that someone transferred him 10,000 dollars.
And so they get into a routine. Danny and Damian fight crime with Ace at night, and occasionally Damian stops by during the day to play with Ace and have Danny help with his homework.
(Damian is smart enough to do it on his own, but some of the instructions are written incredibly confusingly, and he would never admit to needing help to his family. Danny is just glad that the kid is in school and cares about his education, blissfully unaware that he’s basically emotionally adopted him.)
Damian is used to being in Danny’s company.
Eventually, when going over a case with the family, Damian absentmindedly remarks that he’ll have to ask Danny about some of the clues that they might be missing. Nightwing asks who he means and Damian makes a face like he just swallowed a lemon.
Cue shitstorm.
Who is “Danny?” Why is Damian willing to ask for help from anyone, much less someone outside of the family? Does he know who Damian is? Has Damian been compromised? What the hell is going on?
Damian now has to explain that Danny is the psychopomp with the ghost dog who he might have met hunted down while on patrol and conveniently not mentioned, but he’s not a bad person, really, and he lets him play with Ace, and he’s been quite helpful on certain cases due to his ability to talk to ghosts.
Bruce insists that the family meet Danny. Damian, hoping that he won’t just skip town the second he hears the news, relents.
Danny is surprisingly eager to meet the bats, considering his earlier fears.
Damian, blissfully unaware of what’s coming, sets a time and place to meet.
Once everyone is there, he gives Bruce the earful of a lifetime.
Robin is in middle school! Danny knows that there’s no way to stop the boy from going on patrol, but you could at least shift his schedule so he gets enough sleep on school nights! Does the Bat even know where he is half the time?! (No) And why isn’t he comfortable asking his family for help with both cases and homework? Did they ever even notice how much time he was spending at Danny’s house? If Danny was a bad person, he could have seriously hurt the poor boy! Shame on you!
Nightwing is mortified that Damian didn’t trust him enough to tell him about any of this. Red Hood is laughing his ass off, because yeah Danny is making good points but he’s also chewing out the literal Batman. Tim is recording the whole thing. Steph is delighted by the absolute gall of this Danger Twink™️, and already planning to add him to several groupchats. Damian is more embarrassed than he’s ever been in his entire life.
You, he points to Nightwing, did your academic life feel supported when you were a Robin? Nightwing is too stunned to speak. Red Hood, eternal shit-stirrer, says that oh, we all prioritized patrol over our education, that’s just how it is. Red Robin actually dropped out of high school to avoid distractions, did you know that?
Danny honest-to-god shrieks at this.
He finishes his angry rant and leaves, everyone too stunned to stop him.
And as it turns out, Tim wasn’t the only person recording the whole thing.
The entire internet is blowing up with Psychopomp The Danger Twink™️’s rant. People are taking sides. Things are getting messy. Red Hood literally admitting on-camera to previously being a Robin is somehow not the main focus here.
Eventually someone connects some dots from the video, as well as stories circling the internet about the psychopomp. A ghost dog named Ace, who is the literal only reason that the psychopomp is fighting crime at all, which seems incredibly fond of Nightwing and Robin.
A crime-fighting dog who wants constant attention from both the current and original Robin.
Oh my god, Ace the Bat-hound died and became a crime-fighting ghost.
And, somehow, that’s still not the strangest thing going on in Gotham.
#dcxdp#dc x dp#dp x dc#dpxdc#dp x dc crossover#dc x dp prompt#literally Ace is too good a boy to pass on#this veered wildly into ‘Danny emotionally adopts Damian’ but really it’s what he deserves#sometimes family is an ex child assassin an undead college student and a ghost dog#also Danny gives literally no shits during investigations because he Cannot Die#he will just casually take 40 bullets to the chest like it’s nothing#if he encounters a rogue he will beat the everloving hell out of them and then give them Jazz’s card#(she’s doing confidential therapy for vigilantes and rogues)#except for the ones who are too far gone. like the joker#he’s a bitch and Danny hates him#if given the opportunity Danny would gladly kill him but Clockwork says he’s not allowed to do that#so he settles with beating the hell out of him and then covering all his stuff in glue#and of course alerting the authorities

Just a reminder that unless your amputee character lost their limb less than a month ago, their stumps don't need to be bandaged.
#ive been seeing a lot of people's chatacters on artfight who have bandaged stumps so i thought it worth a quick reminder#this goes for you too Dragonage Fandom - your inquisitor doesnt need a bandage on their arm when you draw them interacting with Rook lol#there are exceptions of course but there are very few reasons for your oc who lost their arm 10 years ago to still be bandageing it#i have a longer post about this if you want to know more - its one of the first posts on this account#amputee#amputee representation#disability representation#disability in media#amputee character

“we need more complex characters!!” if Lost were released today all of the characters would be cancelled immediately
#except vincent of course#lost abc#lost#jack shephard#kate austen#john locke#james sawyer ford#charlie pace#sun hwa kwon#sayid jarrah#jin soo kwon#claire littleton#hurley reyes#michael dawson#shannon rutherford#juliet burke#desmond hume#ben linus#one of the main reasons why it’s one of my favourite shows is that all the characters are flawed and make mistakes and bad decisions#maybe it’s just me but I feel like a lot of people can’t handle that and immediately see characters as irredeemable or morally bad#I’m slowly turning into a lost blog#also I made this post at 1am maybe I’m just overthinking really hard lmao

Rule no.1 of Berserk: Casca is always right. If she tells you not to pick up a stray swordsman by the side of the road because he will ruin everything, you listen. No matter how big and brown and sad his eyes are. You. Listen.

That is my truth.#berserk#casca#griffith#griffguts#<- (?) adjacent I guess#berserk fanart#tortured griffith#Read almost all of it in your head with a mocking baby-ing tone except for the last one.

Two face birthday, the Fenton Ghost Catcher tm and bats
The Fenton parents decided that to finance their new series of inventions, they were going to sell some of their inventions that they ultimately never used (and that the GiW does not want) on an inventor auction site… the most part of their invention is sold for almost nothing but the Fentons were committed to selling whatever the price, so… they must find other ways to earn money easily… maybe a fudge sale !
Two face managed to get his hands on the Fenton Ghost Catcher tm. OK, the other rogues give him a kind of tasteless gag gift for his birthday.
Except it works! Two-Face and harvey are free from each other!!! Two-Face remains in place but suffice to say that harvey went to celebrate with his best friend bruce who decided the best idea to have the machine studied by his company, Harvey therefore gives the location
So the Fenton Ghost Catcher tm ends up at the batcave that same evening
But after an argument and shoving, several members of the batfam go through the Fenton Ghost Catcher tm and the Fenton Ghost Catcher tm works for some of them as well and in the accident the machine is damaged
Cerize on the cake, harvey WITH Two-Face comes back the next day because they both feel sick…
They must urgently find out who the Fenton(s) are
#dpxdc#dcxdp#dc x dp#dp x dc#dp x dc crossover#dc x dp crossover#fenton parents#Fenton Ghost Catcher tm#two face#batfam#batman#bruce wayne#harvey dent#the bats that I think are interesting to divide are of course bruce and jason#the bats were debating on the ethics of doing this#and of trying it on another regular arkam#it got out of hand when the hypothesis that jason tries to get through his rage problem to bring up#except that making two humans with one body#however contaminated it may be#is not a good idea in the long term#but Bruce has already put his mission ahead of his health more than once#and enrages Jason#because I find more funny that the rage is the one without a costume#in addition to avoiding that he immediately shoots everyone in the room#is not to stay wisely in the batcave
