Me after this episode knowing that chat noir is dead silent and unreceptive to ladybugs teasing and he doesn’t make puns and doesn’t smile at all this episode and he has one foot out the door while ladybug has no idea he’s a hairs breath from ghosting the whole team as soon as he figures out a new career path and is just going through the motions at this point
my eyes were seeing things at first…

What do you think about Ladybug and Chat Noir's partnership in season 4 so far?
I'm not actually watching season 4 until all the episodes are out in English and I can liveblog it with my bro. However, based on some of the stuff I've seen in other people's posts, I'll say that 'Kwamibuster' seems to be coming to bite our main characters in the ass. The episode where every other character insisted to Marinette that she could definitely not trust Cat Noir is clearly behind Marinette refusing to even tell Cat Noir that their team has three full-time members now, because the lesson Marinette took away from 'Kwamibuster' was that she can't keep anyone in the loop and the less Cat Noir knows the better it is for everyone.
Like, I noticed that Marinette was being set up to take after Fu in episodes like 'Backwarder' and 'Feast', but I mostly thought it was going to be about her dragging her feet in solving her love life issues by going "duty first". However, in addition to that Marinette really is taking after Fu in the worst possible ways in that she just refuses to let anyone in unless the situation simply can't be solved without opening up to someone. 'Gang of Secrets' was basically the 'Collector' for Marinette, the episode where the lone Guardian realizes that they can't keep going on in total secrecy, and then picks someone else to open up to while Cat Noir is left to not even know there was a situation to be solved. I'm saying Marinette is probably gonna get her own 'Syren', when she finally realizes that the current level of secrecy is damaging the team. And just like Marinette was the key in 'Syren', Alya will probably be the key to Marinette realizing that Cat Noir is being needlessly excluded.
The show is even setting up the reasons why Marinette doesn't realize she's actually shutting her partner out; Marinette is so busy with her Guardian duties that she doesn't have time to spend being with Cat Noir, and the increased size of the team means she's splitting her attention so she's more likely to miss anything wrong in her dynamic with Cat Noir. This means that, unlike Fu, Marinette is still sympathetic to me within this plot. I don't want what's going on to blow up in her face, because it couldn't be clearer that she isn't intending for things to be one-sided. On the contrary, she's trying to improve the situation for everyone.
new adrien crying on a bench just dropped!!!!!! <3
im gonna be honest i think the "adrien being a sentimonster was randomly thrown in season 4 with no planning on the writers' part" theory is really funny. like the writers of this show are just so bad at their job and so stupid that they tripped and fell in season 1 episode mr pigeon and accidentally spilled "a strange relationship to feathers" all over adrien by accident. they stubbed their toe on the coffee table and accidentally set up a mystery surrounding emilie's relationship to a feathery miraculous in season 1 volpina before we even knew what its powers were. then they spilled coffee all over their favorite shirts and at the same time spilled more white feathers around adrien in season 2 episode gorizilla. while writing the same episode someone had a really nasty sneeze and got boogers all over the script that said "use the imagery of two twin rings intertwined as the opener for the film of adrien's dead mother". they forgot to look both ways before crossing the street while writing the season 2 finale and were struck by a truck labeled "the peacock miraculous gives life" and then by a second truck with the license plate "it does so using white feathers identical to the white feathers that surround adrien in his ads" at the same time. they plummeted down an open manhole and hit the ground with a loud whack that sounded like "sentimonsters like bugette are just as real as any human..... and isn't bugette so...... perfect?" in season 3. on their way to the hospital they slipped on ice that had frozen in such a way to perfectly resemble the sentence "the word 'perfect' is consistently used throughout the series and by the creator ominously to denote how characters like adrien and kagami are 'different from everyone else', ever since season 1 episode simon says". during season 3 someone on the team got food poisoning and when they threw up felix came out instead and started another whacky series of comedic errors. the answer to the mystery of "how and why did emilie die? what life did adrien's loving mother create that she was willing to die for?" was originally gonna be "idk maybe she just exploded or somehting" probably, but then there was a really painful rock in one of the writers' shoes while walking to work that put them in a mood so bad that they forgot their original plan and instead made some bullshit up that somehow ended up being something that made sense with what we knew and put all the puzzle pieces together and actually made the show even more interesting and impactful on a rewatch because it put a lot of shots that at the time seemed random into a new and logical perspective as clear foreshadowing. it's actually impressive how stupid these silly clown writers are that they put strangely specific things so consistently throughout the entire series that resembled foreshadowing while never actually having intended it a single time! like........... really.......... really impressive............... i think..............
