Part 3 of my Heartshaker AU ! :3
First / Prev / Next
Hey, Miraculous Ladybug is doing one of my favorite things, where characters are making a mistake that we, the audience, can tell is a mistake, but we, the audience, can also see why those mistakes are being made. It's not the right thing to do, but we can see why the characters think it's the right thing to do.
We know that the Ladynoir conflict is, to some extent, based around a lack of communication. Ladybug doesn't really know how much her decisions are hurting Chat because Chat doesn't tell her, and Chat doesn't know how much Chat Blanc is hurting Ladybug because Ladybug refuses to tell him.
Ladybug knows that Chat doesn't like being kept in the dark much, but it's easy for her to justify it to herself when the alternative is Chat Blanc. She doesn't know that Chat nearly quit because of secrets being kept from him, and she doesn't know that the current situation gets Chat so angry he breaks things. As far as she knows, Chat just gets kind of pouty. It sucks, but she'd rather Chat get kind of pouty than get akumatized. She doesn't know that her behaviors might lead to Chat getting akumatized for a different reason, because Chat won't explain it to her, because, well, Chat's been raised in an environment where his opinions and feelings do not matter. Trying to tell his dad that he doesn't like the way he's treated has been fruitless so far, so it's not too hard for him to treat Ladybug the same way. Better to hide his feelings and not risk making Ladybug mad by questioning her.
Chat does know that Ladybug has been under a lot of stress lately, and has offered to help. He might be a bit disappointed that he wasn't able to help her, but she seems to be handling it on her own, so that's okay. He has no reason to believe that Ladybug might still be stressed about anything other than the usual Hawkmoth fights. But she is, and she refuses to talk to him about it because, well, would you want to tell your superhero partner about an alternate timeline in which he gets akumatized and kills everyone in Paris? Better just keep quiet, try to deal with it on her own. She doesn't want to make Chat sad, or risk him getting akumatized.
This is going to blow up in both of their faces and it's going to be great.
venty chat noir and a chat blanc i did while testing out a brush
No but the reveal and confession in Ephemeral was way better than the one in Chat Blanc, so much more character and build up- and TIME to process it before they became a couple
the fact that bug noire told adrien that she was mortally wounded and that gabriel used the wish to save her ............. omg ..... absolutely horrific thing for adrien chat noir agreste to hear. i dont think she has any idea how much that was the worst possible thing to tell adrien because she doesn't know he's CHAT NOIR!!!!
hello, chat noir, my dear partner that already has issues with self sacrificial tendencies. did you know that the one time you weren't around, i nearly died. i needed you to protect me and you weren't there. your father, on the other hand, is a hero for dying to save me. i sure hope you don't internalize any of this.
DEADEST INSIDE SHES EVER LOOKED WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK
realization ™
the fact that Adrien rolls around in the grass going “mew meow maow….pspspsp”……
