Chapter 6

Marinette was panicking. She couldn't breathe.

He asked her out on a date.

Xavier asked her out on a date.

She didn’t know whether she should jump around her room squealing with joy or scream in frustration.

She didn’t know what to wear.

“Tikki!” Marinette wailed, “What do I wear?”

The red kwami stared at her chosen with a bored expression. “Just pick one of those outfits.”

The dark-haired girl glanced at the clothes around her room before studying the outfits on her bed.

“Those clothes aren’t good enough.”

Tikki flew towards a dress and pointed at it. “You’re wearing that.”

“But-” Marinette tried to protest.

“You’re wearing that,” Tikki demanded.

Marinette could not bring herself to argue with the tiny goddess. She was simply too tired. Marinette let out a yawn. “Sorry bout’ this, Tikki,” Marinette murmured. Tikki’s sky blue eyes met Marinette’s tired ones. “I just don’t want to look stupid in from him.”

“You’re not going to look stupid.”

“You sure?”

Tikki rolled her eyes. Her chosen was just so oblivious sometimes.

How was it possible for someone to be so smart yet so dumb at the same time?

Tikki had no idea. She gave Marinette a glance.

Marinette was sitting on the edge of her bed looking so defeated. Her shoulders were hunched and her hair was a mess. She was clenching her fists, no doubt believing what she was actually saying about herself.

She looked so broken.

Tikki quickly flew to Marinette to give her a hug on her cheek. “You won’t look stupid, Marinette.” the flying kwami assured. “And even if you do, he won’t care. He saw all the posters of Adrien in your room, remember?” Marinette nodded and Tikki quickly smiled, “See, and even after that he helped you.”

“I know.” Marinette’s voice wavered.

As much as Marinette didn’t want to let Lila and Adrien’s remarks get to her. It just didn’t work. It still hurt.

A lot.

It didn’t help that Marinette read some of the comments on her recent Instagram post. At first, all the comments she saw were so supportive. But as Marinette kept scrolling, the comments quickly got worse.

It went from people insulting her looks to telling her that she wasn't worth it. That she should just kill herself. There were so many comments telling Marinette that she was just a waste of space. Telling her that she was useless and that no one would ever love her.

When enough people tell you the same things over and over again, you know it’s true.

It only took a few minutes before Marinette was ready to burst into tears. Luckily, she was able to hold it in until the bell rang, telling the student that it was time to go home.

By the time Marinette shut her trapdoor, her face was streaming with tears. She was stupid. She never should've posted that picture. She should've never listened to Xavier. She should’ve just left it alone.

Marinette glared at her phone.

Stupid.

Stupid.

Stupid.

Marinette felt tears on her cheeks and knew that her kwami was looking at her with pity.

It was the same look Tikki was giving her now.

“Stop looking at me like that.”

“Like what?” Tikki innocently asked.

“With those eyes. You feel bad for me. I hate it. I hate feeling like this. I hate feeling useless.”

Tikki shut her eyes before sitting on Marinette’s palm. “XY is right you know.” Marinette tilted her head in confusion. “You need to talk to someone about this.”

“About what?”

“About this.” Tikki’s voice was frustrated. She was a goddess. She was one of the most powerful beings alive. She was creation itself. So how come she can’t keep Marinette happy? “You’re not feeling okay Marinette.” Tikki was close to crying now. “Please.” her voice sounded so desperate it made Marinette want to give her kwami a hug. “Just talk to someone. Anyone.”

“I can't!” Marinette snapped. “There’s no one I can talk to. Nino and Alya won’t understand. They don’t know I'm Ladybug. They won’t understand why I’m so stressed. I can’t talk to Chat Noir because he’s a jerk. He’ll-” Marinette’s voice lowered. “He’ll try to use my emotional state to manipulate me and Xavier-” Marinette let out a harsh laugh. “I don’t want to bother him. He’s helped me enough. Especially since he gave me something to look forward to tomorrow.” Marinette gave Tikki a small smile. “He asked me on a date.”

“Then talk to me,” she whispered, floating next to Marinette’s side. “Please.”

Growing up, XY had no friends. He was always alone. No one wanted to hang out with him. All he had was his mom and dad.

XY knew he looked a lot like his mom. Everyone told him that.

Maybe that’s why his dad hated him. XY had his mom’s golden blonde hair and ocean blue eyes. People often told XY that he had her soft smile as well.

As he grew up, his mom often told XY that he reminded her a lot of herself when she was younger. Hearing that always made XY smile. He always wanted to be like his mother.

His mother was the best person he ever met. She was always there for him. She reminded XY that she loved him whenever she could. She played with him when he had no one to hang out with. She gave him a hug whenever a kid was picking on him. And she always gave him the best advice.

XY thought he would be with his mom forever.

But she’s gone now.

XY missed her.

He missed her smile.

He missed her laugh.

He missed how she always gave him a warm hug whenever he went home crying because someone told him that he wasn’t worth anything.

And most importantly, he missed how she always reminded him that she loved him.

Now?

No one did.

XY crinkled his nose in disgust.

He was never close with his father. As he grew up, Bob Roth was just there. He was just another person in the house.

Looking back at it, XY wished he tried harder to have a relationship with his dad.

At least if he did, he wouldn’t feel so alone.

XY stared at his arms. He could see the faint outlines of the cuts he used to make after he found out that his mom was gone.

The cuts weren’t obvious. Just a little scratch whenever he felt like he needed to feel something.

The pain helped him feel better.

In fact, you could barely see the cuts now. You would need magnifying glasses to even notice that there was something on his arm.

XY let out a breath he didn’t know he was holding. He needed to get over himself.

He was just XY. A musician that stole music from other people. He was useless.

XY forced himself to shut his eyes. “Stop it.” he murmured to himself, “These thoughts won’t help you with anything.” He took a deep breath.

In.

Out.

In.

Out.

In. Out.

XY’s eyes snapped open and he groaned.

This wasn’t helping.

His eyes drifted to his phone. Hoping that Marinette sent him a text.

Nothing.

What was he trying to convince himself? Marinette didn’t need to text him. She had other friends.

If he really wanted to talk to her, he should text her.

But he couldn’t. He didn’t want to bother her with his problems.

She was dealing with enough.

He was lucky that Marinette opened up to him about all the drama that’s going on with the Lila girl and Adrien. But he knew that she wasn’t telling him everything.

He couldn’t do anything about that though. He couldn’t force her to tell him everything. But he wanted to help her.

The last time they talked in person she looked so defeated. Marinette looked like she was holding the weight of the world on her shoulders.

She hid it well.

XY only figured it out today.

His reflection was staring at him through the mirror. His eyes were red and his usual golden hair was dull and messy. He looked pathetic.

But as he continued to stare at himself in the mirror, he knew why wanted to help Marinette so much.

She reminded him too much of himself right after his mom died.

XY let out a sad smile. Even though she was going through so many things, she agreed to go on a date with him.

He couldn’t wait to hang out with her.

Which was why he needed to get himself together. He couldn’t look like a mess in front of Marinette.

XY didn’t need Marinette to regret her decision to go out with him.

He couldn't lose her.

Marinette was too important to him.

He wouldn’t lose anyone he loved ever again.

thank you!! I’ve always wanted to get laid. I’ve written my fair share of Adrien bashing fanfics, but yeah. I’m very misogynistic. I’m sure you know all about that considering you know me in real life

imagine a female Percy x miraculous crossover.

Like just imagine.

Marinette getting jealous of Percy because she thinks that she’s trying to steal Adrien from her but in reality, Percy has a boyfriend (maybe Roy Harper from DC?) and Adrien just likes the fact that Percy treats him normally.

But Marinette doesn’t know that so she tries to sabatoge Percy the way she tried to sabatoge Lila and Kagami. (It’s canon so you guys shouldn’t be mad with the small amount of salt I’m pouring towards Marinette. She kinda deserves it).

It backfires, obviously. And Marinette finally gets consequences for her actions. Her friends finally realize that they’ve been encouraging Marinette with her obsession towards Adrien and they vow to be better.

There won’t be a lot of salt. Only for Marinette because there’s barely any salt fics about her and she’s by far one of the most problematic characters in the show.

Should I write it? Cause I’ve been wanting to write some good Marinette bashing fanfic for a while. Even if it’s just a little. Not to mention that it involves my favorite fandom, which is Percy Jackson!! And one of my favorite tropes, which is a genderbent character.

Agreed. We all know that Marinette can be a bit extra when it comes to people liking Adrien, which is honestly stupid because Adrien is a model.

Of course Alya just assumes Marinette is jealous.

Lets go down the list of shit Marinette has done cuz of her big ass obsessive crush on Adrien.

Stolen his phone.

Keeps fucking day dreaming about him and barely functioning like a human being when hes around.

Stalked him a few times.

Broken into his house

Has his schedule on her wall and pictures of him all over.

Planned out their marriage and shit??

Joined with CHLOE against Kagami.

Stolen Kagamis fucking phone just to snoop through it!

Followed Lila and Adrien just cuz he was gonna be alone with some girl.

So yeah, if I was Alya Id assume she was just jealous/over reacting too.

And Alya only said ONE thing about that in Chameleon but she still listened to her. So Alya salt is ridiculous.

Fanfic idea

Would anybody be interested in a fanfic where Marinette just breaks? Like where she doesn’t care anymore and just lets herself be manipulated by the people around her. It could be Chloe or Lila. Or maybe even the whole class because they’ve always secretly hated how successful Marinette got. Like they they manipulate Marinette into thinking that she needs them and that it’s normal for her to always do what they want her to do. 

At first, Marinette’s only escape could be Ladybug but it soon becomes bad for her too because of Chat Noir. Or this could just be a no miraculous AU. 

The ending could either be that Marinate realizes that what her “friends” are doing is wrong or it could just be full on angsty and she just keeps doing what they want her to do. 

What do you think?

Fanfic idea: Adrien Agreste as a player/badboy

No Miraculous AU:

(Adrien’s backstory)

Chloe and Adrien were dating when they were in their early teens

Chloe cheated on Adrien a few months after his mom’s death with a model that Adrien was working with

This causes Adrien to make a promise to himself that he won’t ever fall in love again and if he believes that a girl is using him even the slightest, he’s gonna make her feel what he felt when Chloe broke his heart. A lot of pain and embarrassment

Because there are no miraculous in this story, Gabriel Agreste is a better father. He tries to be there for Adrien but Adrien pushes him away.

Françoise Dupont High School

This is gonna be an elite private school. I mean a supermodel, the mayors daughter, and the children of famous chefs/actors attend that school so why would it be a public school. So to be able to attend the school, you’d have to have a lot of money and a bit of internet fame.

Marinette’s backstory

Marinette was bullied in her previous school so she she decided to be homeschooled for her freshman year before transferring to Françoise Dupont High School at the beginning of her sophomore year

Françoise Dupont High School accepts Marinette because her family owns one of Paris’s most famous bakeries with locations all over the world. She has a brand called MDC where she designs for many famous people.

Jagged Stone was the one who discovered her talent and helped her grow her influence

Jagged calls her honorary niece which again helps her with her influence

She doesn’t have many friends so she models her own clothes and is pretty good at it

She has a lot of Instagram followers and she might start a YouTube channel soon

She tries to keep her connections and fame lowkey so people don’t use her

Lila Rossi’s backstory

She’s gonna be one of Marinette’s closest friends

When she transfers to Françoise Dupont High she tries to become friends with Adrien but she gets intimidated by everyone and starts lying

Adrien calls Lila out in front of everyone and embarrasses her in front of everyone. Then Chloe makes a snide comment about it and it gets worse

Marinette stands up for her and they soon bond and become good friends

Plot (kinda)

(Part 1)

Marinette is tired of her old school. Her whole life, she’s been bullied. So when middle school ends she tells her parents that she wants to be homeschooled.

Her parents agree and during summer Marinette decides to focus on herself and learn how to be more confident

The bakery business is doing amazing and they’ve gotten multiple offers to have branch out. This caused them to become one of Prius’s most famous bakery

Jagged Stone heard about the bakery and how good it is, so he decides to try it out. Him and Penny soon become close friends with the Dupain-Chengs

He learns that Marinette is a designer and falls in love with her style and commissions from her, this kickstarts her career

Throughout Marinette’s freshman year, she’s flooded with commissions and becomes to get her name known

Jagged convinces her to go to Françoise Dupont High so she can make friends and learn more about the business and stuff

(Part 2)

Her first day of school at Françoise Dupont High and Chloe gets jealous of her. Chloe vows to ruin her life (no one at the school finds out about her being kinda famous until later)

Marinette sits next to Alya and they hit off.

Alya is already together with Nino and they are the only people who Adrien considers friends.

Adrien tries to get with Marinette and teases her often, which makes Chloe jealous

Chloe spreads a bunch of rumors about Marinette and Marinette doesn’t notice it

Adrien begins to doubt Marinette’s intention and he yells at her. This caused them to stop being friends. And because Alya and Nino are closer to Adrien than Marinette, they take his side and Marinette is left alone all over again.

For the following week, Chloe makes snide remarks about Marinette and Adrien agrees with a lot of them. Adrien also begins to tease Marinette in a harsh way, unlike the friendly way before

Marinette ignores them and tries to become friends with other people

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

(Part 3)

There’s a new student coming and everyone is talking about her. Françoise Dupont High just doesn’t accept anyone after all. Especially during the middle the year

Lila arrives and tries to become friends with everyone

She knows that this school is elite so she lies so that she can make friends

Adrien immediately doesn’t like her so he comes up with a plan to get her to stop lying

He embarrasses her in front of everyone by calling out all her lies and even going as far as calling her “a desperate whore who wants attention”

Chloe laughs, agreeing with him and humiliates her even further.

Marinette comes to school late and sees everyone surrounding Lila and she hears all the disgusting things they’re saying about her and stands up for her

Adrien says something like “Of course your defending her. After all, both of you are desperate for attention”

Marinette goes off on him and she takes Lila into a secluded classroom and asks her is she’s okay and what happened

The beginning of a friendship

In this story, Lila is not a psycho. She only lies because she felt like she had too. Everyone knows that the students in Françoise Dupont High are crazy rich. And she felt like they wouldn’t want to be friends with her. When Adrien and Chloe humiliate her in front of the whole school, she develops a hatred for them (and rightfully so). She finds a friend in Marinette and they become very close. Lila is a very loyal friend in this story and she will have an actual story line that she will follow.

Now, would anyone be interested in reading this. Because I’m not gonna start writing a story where no one will read it. So if you can, please leave a comment or something and tell me what you think of this AU
