    Summary

    Adrien smiles as he eats breakfast with Nathalie, smiles as he walks through the halls of his new lycée, smiles as people stop him on the street and tell him time and time again what a "hero" his father was.

    (Adrien wishes he could've been a hero, too. He should've been. Maybe then his father would still be alive.)

    (But he's surviving. Everyone may be treating him as though he were made of glass, but he can still go through the motions, he can prove them wrong, he can still smile.)

    “And you’re… happy,” Marinette spoke carefully, a nervous tilt to her voice, “... right?”

    (Adrien has some things to find out.)

    Summary

    Adrien meant to break up with Marinette at brunch. He really did. But somehow, he just made it worse. Now all of Paris thinks she and Chat Noir are dating, and they're both stuck in a relationship neither of them wanted.

    i. e., Weredad, but longer.

    Summary

    Ladybug receives an invitation at the end of a patrol!

    Contains some of my own headcanons, most notably: MIRACULOUS HOLDERS ARE CREATURES!!! They get actual animal traits when transformed instead of just a costume. My tumblr is diadraws where I elaborate some more on my headcanons which may add some additional context to this fic if you are interested!

    CONTENT WARNINGS: *major* depictions of panic attacks, discussion of child neglect/abuse, and a minor emetophobia (vomiting) warning towards the end.

    Summary

    University has been hard on Marinette. Making new friends and maintaining her grades is a lot easier said than done when she has to disappear at odd times to fight akumas. She's struggling, and with Alya away with family and Adrien painfully out of reach, she's never felt lonelier.

    If only she could talk to someone who really understood her struggles... but it's not like Chat Noir would know anything about loneliness. Right?

    Summary

    Teru wished he could say he had totally forgotten it was his birthday. He wished he could have gone about his morning as normal, nonchalantly checked the date, and realized oh! He was fifteen years old today!

    Instead he lay in bed, sleepless, watching the sunrise through his blinds, shivering, waiting for his phone to go off.
