Can adrien agreste be happy for oNE FUCKING EPISODE

i know it’s supposed to be a serious moment and all but i am absolutely losing it at shadowmoth doing the Crazy Anime Face™️ again right after the reveal

You know… The problem isn’t Marinette and Adrien knowing each other’s identities or dating or anything like that (even if the show keeps telling us that ladynoir can’t reveal themselves) because, as we saw in Chat Blanc, nothing bad happened even though Adrien knew Marinette was Ladybug, even though adrinette were dating. It was all fine UNTIL Gabriel decided to be the shittiest father he could be.

The problem is Gabriel Agreste. 

The problem is that this man is rotten to the core, the problem is that his son happens to be Chat Noir, the problem is that he is ready to hurt and abuse his son to get what he wants.

Ladybug and Chat Noir can learn each other’s identities. But Gabriel can’t find out who Chat Noir is. And Adrien can’t find out who Papillon is. 

oop I'm discovering this is a really fun way to practice lighting hehehe

MIRACULOUS X JJK

I can’t believe it… This ep was mind blowing!! Adrien actually owns pajamas!

i meant to be a casual fan but it ended up ruining my life

I feel like everyone is saying adrien needs his happiness, but I feel like everyone just needs to let him be sad and feel the way he wants for once and let his emotions go. He is always forced into be happy around everyone and it’s probably so tiering, everyone just needs to let our boi relax. He’s always pressured into being happen like the expectations from everyone else that he is always happy and that he can’t be any other way. 😔 He has to let go of all his bottled up emotions before he can be happy.

Adrien's anger is a direct parallel and learned behavior from his father. Remember how Gabriel destroyed that front room over A BOOK and Adrien's response wasn't of shock, but of sadness? He's used to this behavior from his father. Adrien also has an expectation placed upon him to always be perfect and avoid showing his emotions (I mean Gabriel outright compared him to his emotional mother when Adrien confronted him in the past), so it's no wonder he experiences emotional outbursts due to holding everything in for too long. Even at the end of senti bubbler he smiles with ladybug and pretends he's okay, but he's not. Maybe he's not even fully aware of the resentment that's brewing, and/or he's afraid of ladybug's reaction if he expressed his concerns because of how he's used to his father reacting to conflict. The difference between Adrien and Gabriel though is that Adrien seemed to regret destroying that wall and said "I guess miraculous ladybug will fix it," and he stopped himself from destroying that christmas tree, whereas Gabriel has rarely if ever shown remorse for his anger. It shows that Adrien has room for growth, while Gabriel is almost irredeemable

i lose brain cells every time i watch this show 🤠
