Summary
Luka’s life is...a little complicated. He lives in Paris, and normally that’s enough to get people to understand the complications. Fortunately, unfortunately, the list goes on from there. Paris is only a starting point.
The girl he loves is in love with someone else. It goes on. The girl, Marinette Dupain-Cheng, is in love with Adrien Agreste, an extremely well-known supermodel. He’d known that before, during, and after falling in love with her.
Marinette had another life she had to keep a secret. He respected that up until he hit a breaking point, and even then he hadn’t broken. He’d bent.
She was Ladybug. Complication. Ladybug is loved by her partner, Chat Noir. Complication. Chat Noir is actually Adrien Agreste, the boy Marinette loved. Well, who would have thought? Complication.
Luka genuinely likes his life. It’s just complicated sometimes. Normally he does try to play it cool. A complex piece of music doesn’t get any easier when it’s sped up, so he might as well take it slow and enjoy the tune. A piece of him is a little frayed at the fact that somehow, being a superhero is the least complex part of his life.
He’s part-time. That’s probably part of it.

For The Sake of His Inflorescence by BaslessRapier (trynottoworrytoomuch)

Summary
Adrien Agreste is perfectly healthy. Chat Noir is the hero he's always been. Ladybug is stressed, but they're holding it together pretty well.
Adrien is sick, he's dying, he's cursed, but at the very least he's got a good attitude about it.
Mostly. He might be underestimating the amount a supernatural curse wants him to die, but then again the curse might be underestimating him. So, who's the real winner?
Oh god, he's going to die

Summary
A moment of isolation for Chat Noir, for Adrien, for Plagg. It's rare that he actually enjoys being alone.
“I feel…like I’m being left in the dust.”
“You know because you’re being left in the dust! Of course, it’s only natural since she’s the Guardian and you’re…well, you’re just the sidekick.”
“You’re not helping. We're supposed to be helping.”

Summary
Back then, it was just her and Chat. It was stressful, but not like now.
They were friends, but also nothing like now. In hindsight, it was easier to see how this was the first step towards that. She hadn’t thought about the mysteries of her partner
“Have you heard of the lily of the valley?”
There was a fire in her, a desire to learn more about him that hadn’t quite ignited yet. It was the past.
Landing on the roof is as easy as modern-day time travel. One second, every second, moving forward as deliberately as possible.
“You’re my partner.” Softly, she glared at him. “The one and only Chat Noir. Don’t you dare forget that.”

Summary
It’s important to believe your friends when they say things. Alya knows this very well, considering her best friend’s tendency to do one thing and say another.
It’s important, for example, to believe your friends when they say they don’t have a crush on someone.
But damn, it’s getting hard to defend her friend. Who writes an extensive list of ‘Tips’ for a boy she doesn't love?

Summary
"It's not like Master Fu was real strict about following the Guardian rules himself, right? I'm pretty sure he never actually learned a lot of them." Ladybug's lips twitch. "Not that he'd admit it. But he left me in charge, now, and I don't want to do things the same as him just because that's how they're done." She draws herself up, reaching slowly out to rest her hands on his upper arms.
Adrien holds very still against the burning sensation of her hands on him when he'd been braced to find he'd never feel that again, holds still against the burning at the back of his eyes.
"I'm not leaving you out." Ladybug breathes, and at some point he'd begun to unconsciously match his breath to hers. "I'm still learning, but we can learn together. I get the impression from Wayzz that it's been a long time since anyone learned from the kwami directly, so I've been thinking we should start there, but I wanted to talk to you about it."
She pauses, breathes out when he does.
"I'm not- ready, yet, but. But we need to be able to include our own kwami in our discussions, too."
Adrien stops breathing.

Summary
(“You’re not sleeping,” Mai says softly.
“How’d you know?” Zuko asks.To be honest, he’s kind of gotten to the point where he’s surprised that anyone can perceive him outside of his necessary functions- he exists solely to sit in council meetings and shoulder the blame for genocides and famines and the suffering of one-hundred years. Doesn’t he?)
The war is over, but the fallout is just beginning. And where lightning strikes, thunder is bound to follow.
