So Climatiqueen Just Premiered And I Have To Say...

*screams at the top of my lungs in agreement*

MLB Revelator episode rant (spoiler warning)

I've read lots of opinions about who's right when it came to Marinette's secret about Gabriel being Monarch. There are people who defend Alya and there are people who defend Marinette. When it comes to me. I honestly can't blame neither of them. I can't blame Marinette for keeping this secret. I can't blame Alya for getting mad at her. But you know who I can blame? GABRIEL FUCKING AGRESTE. He was a fucking dick to his very end. I don't even know if the show truly wanted him to be a sympathetic villain or not, because most of the time he wasn't even nice to his own son and he had like... one... two, sympathetic moments? While 95% of the time he was busy terrorising Paris, innocent people and traumatizing literal children. HIS SON INCLUDED. What he asked Marinette, before taking that wish, was literally so cruel and selfish. He asked her to lie. He MANIPULATED her into lying. Lying that he, a TERRORIST, was a damn HERO. She's a kid for god's sake. And he was a grown ass man-

It's so baffling to me that people will blame marinette for literally anything. At the beginning of the episode we see her talking about Sabrina and how happy she is that she's changed and is now helping people. And then she shifts her focus to her planned date with Adrien for most of the episode.

But GOD FORBID, she asks ONE QUESTION, in a not sweet saccharine princess tone, because she is CONFUSED, and lacking CRITICAL INFORMATION, which is what the ENTIRE EPISODE BUILD TOWARDS, and she's suddenly "mean" and "a bully" and "ruined this season".

Like. Some people make it so blatantly obvious that they just look for reasons to shit on a fictional 14 year old girl due to her simply existing. C'mon.

marinette and adrien being in a relationship is so funny because both of them will want to help anyone in distress and neither will back down so they’ll both hold some random struggling person’s hand and run away?? but then marinette will be like OH FUCK. right im the guy who fixes the distress!! guess i gotta make a shitty excuse and fuck off!! and then adrien is like oh now that my beautiful girlfriend has left my field of vision im remembering IM A SUPERHERO AND NEED TO FIX THIS LIFE-THREATENING SITUATION!! i sure hope my girlfriend doesn’t get attacked while she’s purchasing 16 apples from the fishmonger and retrieving 27 balls of yarn she’s suddenly misplaced. meanwhile the person they were previously consoling is like what the fuck they both just ditched me after insisting they wanted to make me feel better what is their damn problem

I would unironically love this. A Miraculous version and a non-fandom one (obvi with it's own dark story)

Miraculous Ladybug Dating Sim where you play as Marinette as she tries to build a romantic relationship with Adrien

It starts off all cute and sweet as Marinette tries to max her skills and social links to increase her chances of passing skill checks or learning important information about Adrien and his life so she can keep increasing that heart meter

But stuff starts getting weird

And the decisions start getting harder

And Marinette/the player starts to realise that there's a lot of stuff being learned that Adrien doesn't know

The choices become less about what would make Adrien happy and keep those hearts filling up, and more about what will keep him safe

Cause it turns out his family has done some really fucked up shit and he's none the wiser

And the game just keeps going, becoming less of a sugary sweet dating sim and more of a psycological horror

A "good ending" is no longer possible, so it all becomes about keeping the game going. Because if a slip is made, if Adrien finds out the truth, if the game ends - then what happens to Adrien? Does he disappear if the screen fades to black? Can he be saved if the game file is reset? Or will it be permanently game over?

REBLOG IF U HELLA STRESSED

I just know I look insane with this constantly playing in my head

"et je t'aime" intensifies

do not put ur life on hold because of how u feel about ur body. don’t postpone trips or cute clothes because u want to wait until u are thin. life is happening right now. u r beautiful right now.

I know this comic was very much about Marc and Nath and I very much don't want to take that away from them, but I definitely see the parallels between Rain-Piercer & Sun-heart and Ladybug & Chat Noir.

Maybe it's obvious, but I enjoy analyzing it!

Sun-Heart clearly parallels Adrien/Chat. Blonde/golden hair, the whole 'Sunshine' aspect? AdriChat's bright and sunny disposition?

Then we have Rain-Piercer. Dark hair, more concerned about the consequences of them revealing? And the reference to all of the rain symbolism between Adrienette/LadyNoir?

Lets' break it down:

So this could be taken one of 2 ways:

1) This might be referring to the final battle with Monarch. It's showing us that this could have happened between then and now, That LB and CN discussed revealing after Monarch was defeated. Though since we know they didn't reveal, I'd say it's more likely it's a potential hint to the future--

2) Lila/New Butterfly is the "Deep Darkness" (Though it could also refer to the council stuff) And this is foreshadowing what could happen once they defeat her.

Now they realize that if they reveal, they would have to give everything up. Stop being LB and CN? Maybe even never see each other again if their only connection remains their time as heroes.

Chat is ready to reveal but Ladybug warns him the consequences of revealing their identities.

If Chat Noir reveals himself to Ladybug, then he won't be allowed to be Chat Noir any more.

I'm guessing the Great-Rain is referencing the Celestial Guardian, or maybe the order of the Guardians or something. Maybe even Ladybug herself, as she's the current Guardian. Considering her parallel's name here is Rain-Piercer and the authority in this story is 'the Great Rain' it could very well be that they mean 'Ladybug' and 'Ladybug as Guardian'.

And the sacred armor is obviously the Miraculous.

But Chat is ready to reveal. He's waited so long. He wants this. Like it says, He'd rather lose his powers than his partner, who's always been by his side.

Now we have Ladybug, convinced by Chat that she wants this too. She decides to go through with it. Renounce her burden (With a passion!)

Interestingly enough, this time it says 'powers of the Great-Sun...' which... they just said it was the Great-Rain, so I'm wondering if this is a mistake, or intentional? I'd have to really listen to the french to pick out exactly what's said. Maybe 'Great-Sun' is intentional and means something. I'll come back to this if I figure it out!

And then of course, we get the happy ending and the much-awaited reveal and kiss! So Chat Noir and Ladybug reveal, and they have their beautiful moment!

But.

This is the re-written version.

In their original draft, they both gave up their powers to be together. Nathaniel thought it was unfair that they should lose everything and not have their happy ending.

This is something fans have been discussing for ages. And there's the whole possibility of Ladybug losing her memories if she renounces her Guardianship, which has also been hinted at in this season already.

So Nathaniel changed the ending to ensure they got to keep their powers and have their happy ending.

So is Nathaniel a parallel to the writers themselves? Changing the lore to ensure that Ladybug and Chat Noir can continue their journey even after an identity reveal?

So then this leaves the question of which version we're going to get by the end? Is this their way of showing us that they can continue the show for 12 seasons AND still give us the big reveal?

I mean, how do you continue a show like this for so many seasons and keep the fandom on the line for that long with no reveal? This could be their way of introducing the idea that the story CAN continue post-reveal!

That's just my thoughts on the matter anyway! I hope you enjoyed my breakdown!

Someone get Thomas and Jeremy on the phone

i think we should have an ep where Adrien loses the rings and is like "its ok, because the love I have for my parents will always be in my heart :) " - meanwhile Marinette is having 5 consecutive heart attacks and speed dialing Felix to see if he can make a trip from London and help find the rings

That is all i wanted too LOL

I am a grown ass adult and I still get nausea when I feel like I'm in trouble. They're gonna send me to the principals office and take away my toys for a week. Can you just fucking kill me instead of making me stew in my fucking anxiety
