I'm very proud of this

Do you think if Marinette had told Adrien about Lila’s threat, would it have change anything?

Absolutely. Adrien just thought Lila was seeking attention. Yes, she got Marinette kicked out of her seat but that was more like a side-effect of her lies than a direct result. Adrien has also seen Lila at her most vulnerable, when Ladybug yelled at her for making up a fairytale. As far as Adrien knew at that point, Lila was an outsider new kid, much like he once was, who just told wild stories to impress others. Personally, I think he asked Marinette to take the high road because he felt sorry for Lila. I think he believed that she lied about herself so much because she was deeply insecure and self-conscious and she believed that no one would like her if they didn’t think she did amazing stuff.

I love the idea that everything (positive) that Lila lies about somehow comes true for Marinette.

Lila lies about having connections to the queen of England? Suddenly, Marinette is getting regular commissions from the queen herself and forms quite the acquaintance-ship w the royal family.

Lila "is practically family" to an Italian mafia? Marinettes grandmother has quite an eccentric background, and through her, Marinette somehow manages to get a local Italian Mafia to pseudo-adopt her. (Only because she refused to actually be adopted, much to their disappointment)

Lila "went on tour" with Jagged Stone? Guess who wants his favorite designer to accompany him for his U.S. tour during the summer?

Oh, Lila says she acted in a movie for Graham de Vanily Films? Guess who ends up accidentally staring in a Graham de Vanily film?

I just want all the positive things that Lila lies about to happen to Marinette, who is sufficiently surprised every time (you'd think she'd be used to it by now), meanwhile, in the background, Lila gets progressively more pissed.

And the worst part? Every time she tries to upstage Marinette with something even bigger and grander than Marrinettes' own accomplishments? No matter how ridiculous, Marinette somehow ends up stumbling upon That. Exact. Opportunity.

It's incredibly frustrating.

You could say Marinette has some miraculous luck, despite how adamantly Tikki denies any involvement in these increasingly ridiculous turns of events.

All in all; Lila is frustrated, Marinette is frustrated, and Tikki is very amused (as are Adrien and Plagg, who watch this shit-show from the background).

Hello there.

[Slides elegantly into the tags]

Do you ever think about Emotion?

Of course you do. How could you not. But do you ever think about this exchange specifically:

“You’re not Adrien!”

Because Adrien is sweet, and forgiving, and kind. In fact, kindness is his defining quality — Marinette herself made sure of it:

“I’ll never tell another boy I love him before I know everything about him! Whether he’s kind or not, thoughtful, what he does outside of school and with who… I’ll know everything.”

But.

Do you ever think about Adrien’s development in S4 and especially S5?

Overtime, he has grown resentful of a system that exploits him relentlessly.

Of the people he gave countless chances to, only to be let down over and over again.

Of the web of lies and half-truths he constantly finds himself tangled into. A web that is only growing bigger, stickier, and trickier to escape.

And the Senticousins. Do you ever think about them?

Do you ever think about how they are each other’s reflection, identical and opposites all at once?

“When you bring a living being into this world, you have a responsibility towards them. Your duty is to protect them, love them, help them discover the true meaning of their existence. To deprive them of that… is monstruous.”

“To have a child is to help them blossom, to grow, to find themselves and to be free!”

Do you ever think about their opposite character arcs in S5 — one learning mercy and trust, the other developing a rage so strong it could destroy the world?

Do you ever think that if Felix can now have this exchange with his mum, and mean it:

“They’re all monsters!”

“Not all of them.”

Then there’s nothing stopping Adrien from saying this:

“Look closer, Marinette. They’re the monsters.”

Adrien Salters: Adrien doesn’t take his job as Chat Noir seriously, he’s always goofing off, he’s a sorry excuse for a hero, Marinette needs a real partner!

I’m sorry…

Who gave Ladybug a pep talk during Stoneheart and told her he believed in her when no one else did? Chat Noir.

Who took the fading blow from Timebreaker for Ladybug? Chat Noir.

Who pulled her out of the way of Dark Cupid’s arrow? Chat Noir.

Who let himself be hypno-kissed by Zombizou’s kissy minions so Ladybug could have time to save everyone? Chat Noir.

Who attacked Troublemaker just as she was about to get the earrings? Chat Noir.

Who literally threw himself between Ladybug and Chameleon in the nick of time to take the cursed kiss for her? Chat Noir.

Who refused to fight her in Gamer 2.0 so she could move onto the next level and kinda-sorta died for her sake? Chat Noir.

Who comforted and encouraged her when Miracle Queen brainwashed the whole city? Chat Noir.

Who promised to always stay by her side no matter what, them against the world, when Shadowmoth gained most of the Miraculous? Chat Noir

Who defends off the villain’s attacks while she figures out a way to fix the problem? Who uses himself a human shield and takes blows meant for her? Who has let himself fall to his possible doom more than once because he has total faith she’ll succeed?

Chat Noir, Chat Noir, Chat Noir.

Chat Noir goofs off a bit, yes, but when push comes to shove, he always comes through for Ladybug when she needs him most, and THAT is what really matters. Is he a perfect partner? No. But he doesn’t have to be a perfect partner to be a great one. So don’t accuse him of using his status as a hero to goof off when he is ready to die at a moment’s notice for Ladybug’s sake.

Thinking about senti!Adrien, and while I believe that Adrien and only Adrien should be the one to hold his amok in the end, I just can't help but imagine him giving his amok ring to Plagg. Just like the boys each holding each other's rings that can let them control each other but never abusing that power. Adrien trusting the item that gave his existence in the hands of the embodiment of Destruction. Kwami and holder being truly on equal ground but it's not about power it's just about trust and love instead. The boys with their matching silver rings that give them their physical forms and just them being close and sweet and loving.

Pls he was so mad when he called Marinette "mediocre"
