Lukanette: A Silencer AU

This wasn’t her first plan for taking down Silencer. Not by a long shot. But…

She wasn’t complaining.

Marinette hadn’t been able to find a good place to transform since some of the staff had grabbed her and pulled her into a back room to wait for Ladybug and Chat Noir to appear. In the meantime, Silencer had dragged a full confession out of Bob Roth and was now waiting for Paris’ superheroes to turn up so he could fulfill his end of Hawkmoth’s bargain. Marinette needed to get out, and fast.

One of the cameramen had pulled out his cell and was streaming the live news report of Chat Noir. Everyone was wondering where Ladybug was. Her Chaton was holding off Silencer (for now) but she didn’t want to know what would happen if he got his voice taken away and couldn’t escape.

A thought struck her. “Hey, why don’t we all go help Chat Noir? It’ll give Ladybug more time to get here.”

“Are you insane, kid?”

“What’s the worst he can do? Take away our voices? All we need to do is distract him long enough for Ladybug to arrive.”

“The kid’s got a point…”

It took a few more minutes of convincing, but eventually she got them all riled up and ready to fight. The entire crew stampeded out of the closet and grabbed camera stands, chairs, a whole assortment of improvised weapons to defend their city. None of them cared about Bob Roth, he’d always been horrible, but they’d be damned if Silencer hurt either of their heroes.

Marinette held back a little while, hoping they’d leave her in the commotion. Just as the last member of the film crew left, who crashed through the side of the building but Silencer and Chat Noir.

There was a moment of silence as all three took in the situation.

I need to get out of here and transform.

I need to protect Marinette from Silencer.

I need to protect Marinette from Chat Noir.

Marinette moved a fraction of a second before the other two, turning towards the door to the roof.

“Marinette!”

“Oh, so now you want to protect her?” Silencer tackled Chat Noir to the ground and launched himself after Marinette. “Where were you when she needed you, huh? I’m the only protector she needs now!”

“Run Marinette!”

And she watched as Chat Noir’s voice turned into a little jellyfish and vanished inside Silencer’s helmet.

Her feet were pounding down linoleum tiles, twisting and turning through the massive building as she tried to find somewhere to hide.

“Marinette, you’re safe now! I’m not going to hurt you! Stop running!” Silencer yelled behind her with XY’s voice.

He was gaining on her fast. Too fast. She had maybe two seconds to get around a corner and hope he didn’t see her. She turned.

Dead end.

Her heart was pounding as she slid down the wall. This was it. This was how she died. She’d lose her voice, not be able to transform, and Luka would be stuck as Silencer forever. Paris would be doomed to an eternity of quiet.

Unless…

Silencer turned the corner and she tackled him in a hug. He cradled her against his chest.

“It’s ok. You’re safe now.”

She looked up at him. This was her one and only shot at getting rid of the akuma right now, and she had no clue if it would work.

“You saved me.”

“Of course, Marinette. I won’t let anything hurt you. Ever.”

“Lu– Silencer. Can you… take off your helmet for a second? I… I want to give you something.”

Hawkmoth’s mask appeared over Silencer’s face for a moment and she worried it wouldn’t work.

“Marinette would never hurt me. I trust her.”

Silencer took the helmet off slowly and blinked at her. Without the helmet, he couldn’t speak either.

She reached up and cupped his face in her hands.

Now or never. I’m sorry, Luka.

She pulled his face down for a gentle kiss.

Somewhere, in the back of Luka’s mind, a pinprick of warmth appeared. It grew stronger and stronger until everything was burning, burning away the purple fog that clouded his thoughts and told him to act out on his unhealthy desires. The akuma… I was akumatized. Did I hurt anyone? Did I hurt–

“Marinette!”

Luka broke away from the kiss with a shout, looking around in bewilderment. In front of him was a very red Marinette. She was holding his face, looking just as surprised as he did.

“Did I… Did I hurt you?”

It worked. It actually worked. Just like when she kissed Chat Noir to break Dark Cupid’s hold on him, she was able to dispel Luka’s akuma. She stared over his shoulder where the akuma was fluttering about until she finally snapped back into Ladybug mode.

“You didn’t hurt me, but we need to get out of here. You go find Chat Noir, I’ll try to contact Ladybug. We’ll talk after, ok?”

She smiled the smile she normally reserved for Adrien Agreste and Luka could feel his heart melt.

“Y-yeah… ok. Be safe, Marinette.”

“You too.”

They both took off in opposite directions. Once Marinette couldn’t hear Luka’s footsteps anymore, she doubled back and transformed. With the akuma purified, she went to go find her partner. He was waiting on the roof with Luka.

“Where’s Marinette?” Both boys yelled.She really did feel wanted in that moment.

“She’s fine. I told her to get somewhere safe until I purified the akuma. Are you two alright? That looked pretty rough.”

“All good here, milady.” Chat Noir gave her a cheeky smile. “I held my own against him.”

She laughed. “Of course you did. What about you, Luka?”

He looked a little more contrite than her partner. “I don’t really remember what happened, but I’m ok now. You’re sure Marinette’s ok?” He looked up at her with fear in his eyes.

“She’s fine, I promise.” Ladybug reassured him before going in for a ‘pound it!’ with Chat Noir.

“Thanks for covering for me today kitty. Bug out!” She swung off over the Paris sky, just far enough to drop into an alley and run back into the building to find Luka.

“Over here! Luka!” She jumped and waved her hands, trying to be seen through the crowd of people returning inside. He caught sight of her and ran over, crushing her in a hug.

She laughed and hugged him back. “I’m so so so so so sorry Marinette, I didn’t mean to get akumatized, I promi–”

“Shush, you did it to protect me from Bob Roth. And you got a live confession from him, so that’s pretty great!”

“I did?”

“Yeah!” She pulled out her phone as the rest of Kitty Section caught up to them. Everyone agreed it was damning evidence and that neither of those two would be working in the music industry for a long time. Almost every company that had partnered with XY was blowing up Kitty Section’s social media asking for a collaboration. They’d have to talk about it as a band much later, but for now they were just happy to be back in one piece.

~A few days later~

Marinette still hadn’t talked to Luka about their kiss. She wasn’t even sure he remembered it, the way he jolted back as the detransformation washed over him. She would’ve been offended if he didn’t immediately check that she was ok. Tikki told her that she’d have to talk with him about it someday, and soon. It wasn’t right to keep it a secret from him.

So she’d decided to tell him today. She’d asked if he wouldn’t mind her coming over early before Kitty Section’s practice, and he’d said it was fine. Rose and Juleka were going to be out on a double date with Mylene and Ivan, so they’d probably have an hour or two to talk about whatever was on her mind.

Marinette wished her classmates a good rest of their day and started walking to the Liberty.

Adrien watched her go with an almost pained expression. He shouldn’t have felt that way. She’d clearly kissed him to get rid of the akuma, right? She never even saw Chat Noir round the corner. He’d jumped back almost immediately, watching the akuma leave Silencer’s helmet seemingly of its own volition. Why did it hurt so much to see her kissing someone else? They weren’t dating. She was just a friend. Sure, he’d thought that that valentine may have been hers, but there was no way! This was confirmation of it.

“Adrikins, wanna walk me home today?”

“Oh, uh… sure Chloe.” He glanced up at her and tried to smile. She was too absorbed in talking about herself to notice it was fake.

Luka held out a hand for Marinette as she stepped onto the Liberty. “What did you want to talk about?”

Please don’t let it be Adrien, please don’t let it-

“Silencer.”

Oh. Oh… “What, uh… what about Silencer?” His memories of that day were still fuzzy. Hopefully he didn’t say anything rude to her.

“You might wanna sit down for this.”

That was never good.

“Is everything okay Marinette? Did I say something while I was akumatized?”

“No! No, nothing like that. It was actually something I did.” Her face was bright red and she wouldn’t look him in the eye. When Luka didn’t say anything, she continued. “I don’t know how much you remember, but I feel bad keeping this to myself either way. I didn’t mean to, I just didn’t know what else to do, you see? I knew you wouldn’t hurt me, but Chat Noir was in danger and Ladybug still hadn’t shown up and–”

“Marinette, breathe.” He put his hands on her shoulders and squeezed gently. “Whatever it was, I’m sure you did what you had to.”

“So you don’t remember?” She looked up at him. He could feel her starting to shake under his hands.

“No, I don’t remember anything. When I came back, I was standing in front of you.” He’d thought a lot about that memory, actually. He’d pulled back, opened his eyes, and she was standing in front of him with her hands on his face. He had a guess as to what happened, but he couldn’t remember for sure. To be honest, he was afraid he’d forced a kiss on her and she was going to tell him she didn’t feel that way about him. That’s why he didn’t expect what she said next.

“I… I kissed you. Just to break your akumatization!” Marinette could feel Tikki glaring at her from inside her purse. “I would never kiss you without your permission, I mean!” She bit her tongue before she could say anything else.

“Oh thank god, I thought I kissed you while I was akumatized. Like, forced you to kiss me.” Luka’s cheeks were a soft pink. “Thank you, Marinette. You saved me. I see why everyone calls you their everyday Ladybug.” He teased, bumping shoulders with her.

“You’re… you’re not mad?” She glanced up at him.

“Of course not. You saved me from hurting anyone else. Why would I be mad?” He hadn’t missed that little bit about kissing him without permission, but he was waiting to see if she’d caught it.

“Well, I just thought, maybe…” She looked down at her shoes. “…nevermind.”

Luka stood up as he heard footsteps on the boat. Everyone must’ve gotten done with their date early. He had one last thing he needed to say. “Just so you know, Marinette…” He leaned down to whisper in her ear.

“You always have my permission.”

Why do you reblog your own fics so much?

Because someone might as well!? And look at this. Look. At. This.

Does this look right to you??

These are just the last three fics I wrote. I appreciate the likes, believe me I do, but you have to understand. Likes do nothing for content creators. It’s the reblogs. Because that’s how you find shit on your dashboard. Through reblogs. Not likes. This isn’t twitter or tiktok or instagram. This is a website that’s run by the reblog system.

Reblogging helps content creators put their stuff out there. Why do you think so many people stopped writing fanfic and creating beautiful fanart and edits? It’s because they put in hours of work and don’t get nearly enough notes for their masterpieces. Yes we do this because we enjoy it but like...some validation won’t hurt. A boost of confidence here and there might be all someone needs to finish whatever thing they started and left.

Anyway, I’m still going to reblog my shit...
