[knightofthesevenfandoms]

Bee fell first, Gabe fell harder

I've seen it described the other way around, but I really believe this is how it happened.

Okay, so.

Bee fell first.

That first meeting, at the bar in Russia (?)

Gabe seems annoyed to be there. He's disinterested, doesn't know why he's there.

I don't think either is particularly interested in the other at this point. But it DOES start here. Well, it builds on something that happened at the airbase. Gabe realizes he has an equal who understands the frustration of being held accountable for all of Heaven, and so does Bee, with Hell. It's a strange feeling of camaraderie neither of them has felt before. Which is why Gabe gets flustered by the "Arma-bloody-gedon" and starts to joke about it. And Bee NOTICEABLY perks up when he's being a goofball about it.

Gabe then quickly shuts it down, with the "pity we'll never speak again." I think he's genuinely saying that. It's a shame he won't feel that camaraderie again, since obviously the war is still going to happen. Or so they both believe.

The next meeting. This was a HUGE jump. They went from "we're ready for Armageddon 2.0" to "how about no" in one meeting. Obviously we're given to assume that more meetings than we've seen have taken place. Gabe shows up at the bar and launches into his plan of no Armageddon. I think at this point he's intrigued by the way he feels when he's with them and if the war happens, he doesn't get to explore that more. Bee, on the other hand, is GONE for him at this point. The way they EAT UP his no-Armageddon plan immediately, and the way they're smiling at him?!

AND. The most important bit. When they explain the music to him. They do it SO GENTLY. Bee, the demon who's usually yelling, usually insulting everyone around them. They explain the music to help him understand. And he's receptive to it, maybe not necessarily enjoying the song itself, but enjoying it because Bee likes it. Bee's enjoyment makes him happy.

And the way they look at him when he says that. Head over heels.

I would still argue that at this point, Gabriel is still merely interested in exploring all these new feelings he gets when he's with Bee. He's taking this much slower than Bee. But then he invites them to go look at his statue. Does he understand how vain that is? Probably not, but the fact that he invited them to see something that makes him happy? He took a big step here. Maybe bigger than Bee realizes. This meeting has no pretense, no motive like the previous ones did. Those were "we need to talk about the war" meetings. This one is PURELY for the purpose of meeting up with each other.

And how sad Bee looks when Gabe is talking about how much he enjoys looking at the statue? They want so badly for him to look at them like that, but I don't think they realize that he's almost there.

How could they? They probably have feelings of doubt, of low self worth, because this is the Supreme Archangel Gabriel, they're a demon. He couldn't possibly reciprocate what they're feeling.

Could he?

But then they get their answer, at the pub, with the miracle. This is the angel who frowns upon frivolous miracles, thinks it's a waste of holy energy. He miracles the song to play for them. For no reason other than Bee. To make them happy, to see them smile. And smile they do.

Gabe fell harder

Beelzebub jumped in to their feelings with both feet, but Gabe was more hesitant. He did have a lot more to lose, I'd argue. Bee has already fallen, Gabe probably assumes he could fall for being involved with a demon. Especially since Heaven is probably intensely watching for that after, you know, that other angel and demon. Which is a terrifying prospect, I'd assume, for the angel in charge of everything. And he's vain, he loves himself, loves being righteous, loves the authority of Heaven. So of course he's more hesitant. But he leaves all that behind when he admits to himself that there's something worth more than choosing Heaven.

Y'all. Not only was he ready to fall, he welcomed it. He didn't want to spend another minute in Heaven without Bee. Look at his face when Metatron says he's going to remain an angel. He's SO DONE.

We're lead to believe that falling is the worst thing that can happen to an angel, and Gabriel is willing, no, insistent that he fall.

He wouldn't be falling because of Bee, he'd be falling for Bee.

ballad of a homeschooled girl

pairing: jj maybank x fem!kook!reader

summary: social cues and parties were a new thing for you, luckily you met the party king right away

warnings: underage drinking, accidentally outing someone (to one person), awkwardness, lmk if i missed anything

a/n: ahhh i’m so excited to post the first fic!!! i decided to give this a happy ending ;)

you were sitting on a couch in a room full of people, a few too many people in your opinion, but who would’ve interested that?

you scrambled onto your feet as a kissing couple was making a bee-line to your couch. you pressed your drink to your chest, while your eyes wandered around the room, in search of a new hiding spot— place to sit down.

your eyes landed on another sofa, that was already occupied by one person, but left enough room for you as well.

“jj!” you exclaimed surprised as you stepped closer and noticed the familiar face.

it wasn’t like you and jj were friends, but you were friendly with each other. it seemed that you were the only kook he liked, except for kiara of course.

“hey” jj smiled and held a bottle in your direction

you just raised your cup and he nodded, while he put the bottle back down next to the couch.

“saw you with aaron bryce earlier” jj said after you had sat down

“yeah” you shrugged “thought it be nice to talk with a few people”

“talk?” jj repeated grinning “that was hardcore flirting 101, my friend”

“ehh—no”

“ehh—yes” jj laughed “you know that aaron’s gay, right?”

your eyes wandered away from the blonde boy and to the front of the room. aaron was standing at a window, making out with a boy.

“figured” you smiled awkwardly

“i see you’re not the best at telling those things. i thought it was obvious, but it seems as it wasn’t as much” he shrugged

“this is exactly like when i dated gabe mcallister for a month” your eyes got big and you slapped a hand over your mouth

“don’t worry” jj smiled assuringly “i won’t tell anyone”

“i can’t believe i just outed someone” you made a move to stand up. sheer embarrassment flodding your senses. you had made a fool of you the whole night, might as well go home now. earlier you had been the only one not to get a whole groups inside joke, making you stand out like the queen. after that you had tripped over your own feet and shattered a glass onto the floor and finally the whole aaron thing, after that you had decided to hide out on the empty couch you had sat on, before the kissing couple interfered and you had to leave.

“what are you doing?” jj asked. his hand went to your elbow, as if to hold you in place

“the party is basically done, right?” you motioned around the room. the party was pretty much not done, which seemed to be the exact thing jj tried telling you with only a glance.

“you alright?” he asked

“yeah” you muttered “i’m just not that much fun too be around and the last hour i spend here seems to prove that”

“lucky for you i arrived perfectly late to help you through the rest of the night” he nodded “you don’t want to imagine the state i would be in if i had been on time”

“probably the state i wish i was in right now” you shuddered “i knew parties weren’t my thing, but this.. this is actually worse”

“you want to give up parties completely because you’ve been to one bad one?”

“the first and only” you nodded

“excuse me, did you just say this was your first party.. in like ever?”

“yeah” you shrugged “excluding kids birthday parties”

“how come you’ve never been to any party before?”

“jj, you get the concept of homeschooling right? not really the best opportunity to get invited to anything”

“but you do have friends, yeah?”

“of course” you rolled your eyes “i just don’t like going to parties. but tonight i thought, i should just try it and now it feels like i need to leave the country”

"it can't be that bad" jj shook his head

you send him a challenging look "you see that red stain on the white rug? that was me"

"ehh" he quickly tried to not lose the smile he was giving you "and what if it was your fault? no one will remember that tomorrow"

"topper filmed it"

"he did?" jj asked surprised "what an idiot"

"so" your eyes went to his hand, that was still holding you in place "will you let me leave now?" you asked expectingly

"absolutely not" jj laughed "now we will get waisted"

"what? so that i can embarrass myself even further?"

"no" jj said slowly "if what you said is true and you already embarrassed yourself so much that you should better leave the country, there's not much that can happen now, right? might as well make use of the free alcohol while you're at it"

you sighed. the boy was looking at you like you would be ruining his night if you left now. you shrugged your shoulders in defeat "i guess so"

jj hollered loudly, before he grabbed your cup and filled it up with the bottle that had been standing in front of his feet.

he passed the cup back to you. it was filled to the brim, a few sips went over the edge and landed on your hand. “woah, that’s a bit much isn’t it?”

jj raised his left arm and pointed on an invisible clock. “we started late, so we have to make up for it”

you nodded slowly, before you gently raised the cup, trying not to shower yourself in the liquor, and took a few sips. you grimaced at the bitter taste. “what is that, jj?” you asked “are you trying to poison me”

“straight vodka” jj shrugged

you chocked on your fourth sip. “w-what?” you coughed “are you insane?”

he emptied the rest of the bottle into his own cup. “perfectly sane, baby”

“if i have to go to the hospital for alcohol poisoning, i’m blaming you” you pointed the cup in his direction

“don’t worry if that happens we’re both there” he laughed “and now, drink up. but not too fast”

you spent the next half hour gently sipping on the cup, while you and jj talked with each other. you had never thought you would get along this well. you only knew each other, obviously because you lived on the same island and because he mowed your parents lawn from time to time or fixed your car when there was something wrong with it.

you were a lot more similar than you had initially thought (well, not considering social interactions of course). jj was secretly a fan of taylor swift and you had loved her since you were little. you loved to surf and so did jj. it was funny, every time you found a new thing you both liked, the other couldn’t believe it at first.

finally after another half an hour you both were pretty drunk. you still sat on that same couch, laughing about something jj had just said, without really recoiling what it was.

suddenly teenage dirtbag by wheatus started playing and you grinned at the boy. “that’s my favorite song!”

he smiled, taking your hand in his. “let’s dance then”

you both stood up, stumbling to the middle of the room. you performed a breathtaking dance routine, which mostly consisted of balancing each other out.

you fell back down onto the couch, laughing hysterically. “thank you for tonight” your head was leaning against the leather and you gently turned your head, looking at jj.

jj smiled. “of course”

you had spent another hour just sitting and talking, before jj decided that it was time to go home. he offered to walk you to your house and you agreed.

just before you opened the door, jj behind you, he held you back. “give me your phone"

you raised an eyebrow "why?" you questioned confused

"so i can give you my number, that's alright with you?"

you just shrugged, handing him your unlocked phone without another word of protest

he was silent for a few seconds, before a pityful sigh left his mouth. he held the phone in your direction, the wikihow article on how to start a conversation still opened. "really, y/n?" he presented you with a worried glance

you just laughed. “i’m lucky you saved me”

“yes you are” he muttered, typing his number into the phone, before he gave it back to you. “goodnight, y/n” he pressed a kiss onto your cheek. “don’t forget to call!”

“i won’t” you smiled, watching as the boy walked away, before you closed the door.

When he stabbed himself to defeat Khronos, Luke didn't have a plan for the... after. The general idea was to give life another try and earn the Isle of Bless.

He knew he had made a mess of everything. Meaning well didn't mean shit against all the demigods' lives that had been lost in his crazy desire for vengeance; however no one could say he was the kind of man who gave up easily.

Still when his soul had detached itself from his old body, this surely wasn't what he had dreamed of.

A family.

A big, loud, messy family.

A big, loud, messy family of supernatural beings who liked to never leave him alone, mind his business and who strangely had his well-being at heart.

(Once Father tried to smite an old lady who had called him spoiled. Dad had not been too happy with Father delivering his Divine Justice, but did nothing to stop him 🤣 Nasty old bitch!)

If he had to tell the truth and as an ex-son of Hermes he might have a tiny problem with telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, the little change of religion had been pretty unexpected as was his new nature. However Luke couldn't say that things had gone wrong for him: it looked like Tyche had taken quite a shine to him this time. (And the whole upgrade to a Primordial deity? Not bad, but what the fuck?!)

Said so, some of the things that had made him Luke Castellan during his last life were still there: his skill with the sword, for example. As soon as he had been able to hold one, Father had given him an angelic weapon which he had named Thorn.

Training with Michael as he grew up was one of his favorite memories. Like watching baseball with Dad.

However with a whole new and immortal life at his disposal now, Luke had taken on new hobbies.

Ah, new hobbies! Or, as Percy liked to call them, his angelic quirks: like Uncle Gabe was obsessed with sweets, Raphi liked to change the sex of their Vessel according to their daily mood. And Luke was sure that Castiel, the angel-who-was-not-to-be-named, had an unhealthy interest for bees. Therefore it wasn’t his fault that in his past life he never had the chance to collect things and now he liked... needed to have little mementos of everything!

And that's why on the biggest wall of his new home now stood the biggest collection of photos he could put together. (Wow, he really sounded like one of those crazy moms he had met at the Scout Convention the boys had blown up 🤔 Dad would be proud!)

LUKE'S WALL OF HAPPY MEMORIES ❤️

The parents ❤️ (Yep, he kinda looked like them or they kinda looked like him: still wasn't sure about this genetic mess 🤔)

The sexy hubby 😋

Honey Bunny aka the Firstborn aka "We Lucifers have to stick together 🤗"

Little Fin aka "My baby boy" aka "He'll be arrested before he turns ten and we're proud of him 😁"

(@darkcrowprincess Not sure what I wrote, but I did try 😅)

[princess-of-the-corner]

Okay have ramblings on Princess Bee but with the Sentikids plot. Because I /am/ keeping that somewhere in it.

Okay so. I do /in theory/ like the Sentikids plot and this is going to be part of a rewritten AU where that makes more sense. Things like Adrien /was/ rebellious but as Gabe got worse he tugged on the leash and Adrien was confused why it was so hard to go against his father and his friends were confused he wasn't sneaking out anymore and so on and so forth.

Anyway. Lore stuff first.

The Peacock does not make Sapient Beings by default. Trying to do so fucks things up and takes a part of the user's Life Energy and puts strain on the Miraculous itself.

The Tsurugis and Agrestes had some business deals, talked of their inability to make children, and looked into ways to fix that. They eventually found legend of an artifact that could create life. Tomoe hired Nathalie, a fantastic treasure hunter, to track it down. And she does, handing it over to the Tsurugis.

Kagami was made first, her father being the one to use the Peacock. It hurt him, a lot, but he did not realize the severity of his injuries before he handed it over to the Agrestes, where Emilie made Adrien.

Both Emilie and Mr. Tsurugi were succumbing to their injuries. They and their partners were frantic to find something to fix them. Gabriel tricked Colt into helping them, giving him the Peacock to make Felix without telling him of the pesky little side effects. In for a penny in for a pound, Colt was now using his resources to help fund this expedition.

Between the three of them one after the other, the strain on the Peacock shattered it. Now a danger to all who tried to use it.

While they managed to find ways to delay the inevitable, Mr. Tsurugi quickly succumbed. Whether it was because he was the first or just because his body was resistant to their solution, it's unknown.

Colt and Emilie were able to prolong their deaths for another decade, but eventually succumbed. Difference there is that while Gabe preserved Emilie on the brink of Death, Amelie was fine with letting Colt die. (Also she might be a touch in the dark on all this. Felix knows more than she does because Colt would rant when abusing him).

Yadda yadda Gabe going Hawkmoth.

I am changing like. I want at least one of these parents to be decent damn it so I'm letting Tomoe stay as good-ish. Not fully absolved but she does love Kagami. She gave the child her own Amok, and though never talking much about her late husband she didn't blame the girl for his death. A lot of her working with Gabe was either 'if he revives Emilie he'll revive the other two as well' and 'Gabe has the Peacock and can therefore snap Kagami out of existence if Tomoe doesn't comply'.

Post-defeating Gabriel, the Sentikids do find some way to sever the connection to their Amoks. Merging the Magic into themselves and making it so they can no longer be ordered by the Amok or hurt when its damaged.

Though Mr. Tsurugi and Colt can't be brought back from the dead, Emilie is in her cryo-chamber and the gang does manage to find a way to fix her.

[goldensmilingbird]

Thinking about Awakening. I know there'll be a trilogy of movies so I'm wondering where it could go from there 🤔 The antagonist of the first one was Gabriel, second one will be Nathalie, so who'll be the third one? Lila?

I'd like it to be Felix but I struggle to imagine how he'd fit there. Like it'd be funny if Ladynoir had to fight three members of Adrien's family in a row, but what would be his motivation. I guess he could get pissed seeing sentis carelessly created and destroyed, like in canon? But he wouldn't need to free Adrien from Gabriel/Nathalie, he'd already be free (plus I'm not sure if movie Gabe would ever use the amok anyway). And also a big difference I noticed is that movie LB doesn't really hide anything from Adrien/Chat, she even revealed her identity to him, and master Fu doesn't keep him in the dark either. So with Gabriel gone and people not keeping secrets from Adrien, Felix's actions can't be the same.

I'm also curious if they'd add more heroes. I'd be fine with just the og team (Rena, Carapace and Queen Bee). Zag did like the idea of Chloe redemption, after all. There was a little deleted scene where Chloe tries to dance with Adrien, but he runs after Marinette instead, and she looks kinda sad about it. But then in the final cut they don't seem like friends at all 😔

Everyone is different from their tv show counterparts in some way, and that makes it harder for me to predict, but it's also interesting. Anyway, for now I'm looking forward to Nath as a solo villain 👀

Meet my Immortal Desires MC!

Mary Lawrence

-Choices Book: Immortal Desires

-Love Interests: Cas Harlow / Gabe Adalhard

~~~

Basic Info:

-Full Name: Antoinette Mary Lawrence

-Gender: Female (She/Her)

-Age: 19

-Height: 5"8'

-Species: Vampire(?)

-Birthday: May 5th 1999 (A Taurus ♉️)

-Sexuality: "I like pretty people?"

-Personality type: "I think I'm a cinnamon roll." (She's not)

-Ethnicity: Afro-Haitian and Afro-Trinidadian

-Family: Terri Lawrence (mother)

Unknown father (for now)

Dinah DuBois (grandmother)

Thomas Lawrence (grandfather)

Personality:

Mary is confident and self-assured. She doesn't take ish from anybody so if you try her, she will snap you back in place. Even when the vampires are constantly after her and her mother, Mary never backed down. She also has a sensitive, caring and compassionate side, only showing that side to her loved ones. Mary would fight for her loved ones and has no problem showing her loyalty to them.

Some Facts:

-She was born in New Orleans, to her mother Terri who was of Trinidadian and Haitian descent. Her grandmother Dinah was Haitian while her grandfather was Trinidadian. She is autistic.

-She did pageants as a child, with her grandmother as her coach. She did this until she was 15. She decided to quit and just focus on modeling.

-Before moving to Crimson Beech, she did some modeling for teen magazines back in New Orleans. She took a hiatus from modeling to finish high school.

-She spent most of her childhood with her grandparents because her mother was busy getting her medical degree. That's why Terri is often all up in Mary's business all the time - make up for her absence.

-She wasn't too happy with moving to Crimson Beech as she didn't want to live so far away from her grandparents. The vampire situation made it all the more infuriating.

-She was the 'queen bee' back in her old high school. She wasn't mean unless you tried her.

-She still calls her grandparents often, to make sure they're okay.

-Her favorite animal is the black widow spider 🕷

Relationships:

Her grandparents: She is very close to them both.

Her mother Terri:

She and her mother have their ups and downs and Mary feels trapped as her mother wants her to stay a child. Because Terri was building up her career for most of Mary's younger years, there is a disconnect between them as Terri is trying to play catch up. But Mary is an adult now so Terri has to accept that. Despite that, the mother-daughter duo love each other to bits and would fight and kill for one another.

Gabe Adalhard:

Gabriel is one of Mary's love interests.

At the beginning, Gabriel has an obvious crush on Mary. Mary didn't necessarily return that crush at that time (as she was aware of Libby's crush on him) but is flattered. She is attracted to him still and doesn't reject his advances.

She is sympathetic to his trauma with his family's deaths and would comfort him when he got sad.

She was shocked and hurt that he lied to her about being human and didn't talk to him for a bit. After spending time with his vampire friends, the two make up.

Cas Harlow:

Cas is Mary's second love interest.

She and Cas got off at the wrong foot as Cas tried to kill her when she first moved to Crimson Beech. Since then, Mary has never liked him for the first part of the story, making snarky remarks at him and him matching her sass. It's until Cas saved her from a feral Gabriel is when she starts to warm up. Him as well.

She doesn't know what to think of Cas most of the time as he looks down on humans. But after being on the run from the covens, she does see his tender side.

Seth:

Seth is one of the Venandis and Cas' mentee. Mary has a soft spot for Seth and thinks of him as a younger brother. She and her mother Terri have pretty much adopted him at this point. Seth is the only Venandi vampire Mary is close to, besides Cas. With Val, Margo and Scott, Mary is merely acquainted with them as she dislikes them for being rude to her, for trying to kill her several times and for accusing Cas of being traitor back in Book 1.

Nicole:

Nicole is Mary's vampire homegirl and confidant. After being turned, Mary grows close to Nicole.

(That's all I can say for now)

Libby:

Mary is acquainted with Libby but Libby thinks they're friends for some reason, even when they liked the same guy (Gabriel).

Current events in Mary's life:

At the end of Book 1, Mary is turned into a vampire but something strange is going with her vampirism....

~~~

That's it! For now...

Edit: Thank you to @aria-ashryver for doing this edit of Mary.

This is how I imagine her!

Part 2 of cheerleader Logan and his football bf

(Also found the Og og post)

Name suggestions: Pete, Pat(rick), Max, Tony, Lucas something like that, maybe (was shortly on Tyler, but i don't wanna stereotype too close to the sun, yk)

Also, one day, Elias coming home early to Logan and him having an at home date. BF very much now scared, cause army officer dad, but while Elias is staring at them, he's just trying to figure out if "close friends or date???", paired with "is my son gay?" He looks frightening to the fbbf, but he's just confused. Logan noticing and clearing it up that this is the footballer he mentioned and between the lines that they might be on a date, Fbbf even more scared, Elias is delighted and just invites him to stay for dinner and then very quickly leaves them alone with "don't let me interrupt you". It is now fbbf's turn to be confused. Logan's explanation "dad is just chill like that, he still might ask you a lot of questions later, nothing bad tho"

Sad add (I'm sorry, but i had to): during ODIN while trying to run to safety, Logan and Hesh pass his remains, which stops Logan dead in his tracks, before it was just get himself+family to safety, not thinking about anything or anyone else til he saw him, which crushed him a bit, probably would've died too there or atleast gotten badly injured if it weren't for Hesh, who pulled him along with a "i know it's hard, but you gotta mourn later, now we have to get out of here"

That or they lost contact after cause Logan got into the army and he didn't (but that ain't as drama as that he died, yk, gotta have the drama)

-🐑 (found its creativity again :3)

I kinda like Lucas. Logan and Lucas. Double L and double trouble.

Pfffff poor Lucas. "Oh god he's a shotgun dad." meanwhile Elias is like

"Did Logan come out to me, and did I fucking forget? Or is this how he comes out? Wait are they even dating? If they are I guess the birds and bees talk was pretty useless... though there is some health safety involved anyways. Should I call Gabe? What advice would he even give here! He'd be more likely to kill the boy than I am. Oh but that's if they're even dating, should I ask? Would that be rude? And should I ask Logan or the boy? David might know but that would definitely be rude."

Then Logan's like "I've told you about him." and Elias is like "Oh THAT boy. Yeah sure, this is fine."

NOOOO YOU FUCKIN KILLED HIM OHHHHHHH MHYYYYYYY GAHHHHHD.

Oh but hear me out: They don't see him during the strikes but they go to a refugee/rescue/relief center and see a body there wearing his jacket or some shit (while otherwise unidentifiable.) which is a detail that could later be used to set up some mystery as to whether he really died or not because yk a jacket isn't very solid marker for a persons identity and because things are still very tense Logan does get rushed away still and can't double check or some shit.

[generalluxun]

Y'know what I just realize: the only times Chloe was ever "helped" was in Despair Bear, Zombizou and Malediktator. even then:

Adrien "jokes" about how she will never change once she goes back at it (+plus he's overall an enabler & a bystander spewing empty nothings like: chloe that was uncool)

Miss Bustier doesn't give Chloe any disciplinary action (also an in-show thing)

Ladybug giving her the Bee Miraculous was not the right move, even Marinette knew after Queen Wasp (not only did she finally take that action too late, she didn't confiscate the dragon miraculous even though kagami's id was revealed

Everyone else either aids her in her nonsense or stands by as she goes through w/ her nonsense, essentially enabling her whether intentional or not.

Not even Marinette, Chloé's main target gets to make the excuse of "everyone gave you chances, but you threw them away" (the same one adrien made in derision, but that's a mini complaint for later). While yes, it was likely her who suggested the party in Queen Wasp and she figured Chloé would change via baby steps, mostly she shit talks and returns Chloé's insults. Plus, none of them even believes she could change (hell, despair bear happened before malediktator where chloe admits her insecurities to ladybug. quite a gap, ain't it?)

Speaking of the above paraphrased quote, why suggest that Chloé is not worth your time when you know how she is. At the very least, Miracle Queen should have told you that she needs immediate help w/ her behavior; after all, who's to say she won't intentionally let Gabe akumatize her again? I get why Mari said this, but again, Miracle Queen, maybe drill this into her father's head, or Zoe and have them help her. Alas, Zoe could've been a potential avenue, if Marinette hadn't said that Chloé is hard to be reasoned with (i mean she is, but even the most immovable object can be moved. you just need the right people for the job). Even then, her little feel-good speech in Queen Banana was all she did.

S' yea, tl;dr, no one actually cares about Chloé getting better; Thomas can go suck a lemon :3

I always try to bug picture these discussions so people don't get hung up on Chloé specifically.

Some problems take a long time to solve.

Somee people fail a lot before they succeed.

Every abused child needs to be saved.

Denying any of these in a show is bad.

[catsconflictscopicsandchamomile]

just thinking again about how Cas went "crazy" after sacrificing... something undefined... to put a literal WALL back up in Sam's mind/soul. and how "Crazy!Cas" was fixated on nature and food and animals and plants. and how Sam and Dean are both liminal Christian/Pagan creatures. Did Cas really go nuts, or did he give up his own "wall", and by doing so let all the weirdness, dirt and BEES BEES BEES of the pagan world into his metaphysical being? We see this with Gabriel, too, the difference is we don't know what Gabe was like before he went norse-pagan mode.

Cas: "I can help"

Cas: *removes whatever keeps him, an ANGEL, contained within Christianity/Abrahamic religions and uses it to block Sam's mind off from Hell*

Cas: *freaks out*

Cas: *passes out*

Cas: *wakes up like a month later* I'm pagan now. I like NATURE and BUGS *fucks the first demon he sees*

-“I Create people” we get it Adrien is a sentimonster.

-I can give you the World but give up on my son. Such a fanfic trope but it’s exactly what i wanted

-But he is wrong if he thinks he can interfere with Marinette and Adrien’s love

-Marinette dashed like a pro to Adrien

-So he was Literally at the door just stuck?

-The Adrienette was cute.

-G knew to move out of an Alpha’s way

-YO MARI! ROAST HIS ASS!

-Someone please make a video of Marinette doing Riley’s F*** you speech in the fundraiser to that roast

-Mari held it together until out of view, respect

-Kagami stood up to her mom, but Tomoe ain’t having that

-

She is sort of right, but this is a tactic of control so… f*** you tomoe.

-Argos said “fuck that noise,”

-Argos just kidnapped Kagami after he crashed the car!

-Tomoe Blinging up!!!

-Ohh Ikari gozan got an upgrade, now she is riding the horse dog thing

-oh she gave herself super smell to track Argos, clever

-let’s see, Bee, Chicken, Mouse, and Horse. Damn that’s a solid combo

-Kagami gets put down and he IMMEDIATELY GOES TO STRIKE HIM WITH A CHAIR!

-You know what I realized… Felix is a kid. He is doing what a kid would do with super powers and no supervision. He doesn’t have a moral compass so he really doesn’t grasp what he did is wrong… it’s actually kind of funny how naive he is.

-“You can’t kidnap people!” “You’re right, I won’t do it again. I just got mad your mom was being mean to you.” Ohh that’s adorable.

-Marinette in shock at what she did

-Tikki was like “Yas Queen slay”

-Adrien gushing about his GF, then realizing he gotta fight akuma.

-Everyone there to save Kagami

-Chat noir thinking Tomoe has a point.

-“We technically all want to save Kagami.”

-“Akuma under monarch is bad. Can’t risk it.”

-oh no she got his scent!

-Kagami is right, she can take care of herself (yeets Argos)

-Tomoe really ruined that by trying to shoot her daughter too.

-Kagami reeling from that.

-“You never met my father, he was 1000x worse?”

-Is every rich person a s*** parent? Wait no, Amelie is nice. But that’s an exception not a rule

-Felix is still Felix, screwing with Tomoe

-Kagami is like “Why not make a sentimonster.”

-“I’m anti-Slavery” Felix saying the right things

-Felix showing he’s a better parent then most people in the show.

-Kagami is sick of being called a prisoner and defends Felix. That’s cute

-Ladynoir we’re not expecting Feligami either

-Ladybug deciding to help them out

-Kagami cutting the string is symbolic of her cutting the strings of control

-I’m convinced the most romantic place in Paris is the sewer

-“It was your pretension that failed us.” Gabriel salty

-She forced her to give back the crest. Wait… Omg. Welp guess it’s Slavery

-“enjoy your time with her son, make memories with Marinette. For when we move to london next year.”

-Did he Adrien just Snarl at his father!

-Nathalie is this close to beating Gabriel’s ass. Do it Nathalie. Just do it

-Adrien didn’t tell Marinette about london. Plagg is right.

-Plagg is a mood

-Bonus scene!

-Felix got the real ring and gave it to Kagami in the movie theater… I ship it

_____________________________________________

So on one hand… I hate the sentimonster bulls*** that’s all but confirmed… on the other hand Marinette’s speech was badass af.

I thought the feligami would be forced but it actually felt natural. I liked the episode

The Adrienette was good and I really hope they do SOMETHING that allows Adrien to break free.

8,5/10

[knightofthesevenfandoms]

Now that you've watched s2, I'm very curious to hear your opinion about it as an honourable IB shipper

My feelings are very mixed, while their flashbacks were pretty cute, the "confession" scene felt TERRIBLE to me. Why would these two old bureaucrats sing a cheesy song at each other in front of their respective courts 😭 Why were they speaking like 13 year olds. The ending just ruined the relationship becoming canon :(

Really long answer incoming lol.

Okay so. Essentially, yes. It was jarring/cringe because it was so VASTLY different than the vibe of their relationship that I had built in my head the last four years. I've always thought of them quite a bit more mature, sometimes combative, and really fucking kinky. But I wouldn't say it ruined it for me, and I'll explain why.

Initially it seemed SO out of character, the lovey-dovey, almost childlike affection they had for each other. But it's exciting for me to consider what if this WAS in their characters all along, they were just never given the opportunity/felt safe enough to let that side of their personalities be seen. Which is HEARTBREAKING but there's some subtle evidence to back this up.

We all know Bee is an angry, annoyed, high ranking demon with a lot on their plate. Even Crowley said "because they're always such a ray of sunshine" to Shax because it seems common knowledge to all of Hell that Bee is, well... an angry little shit. But they ARE a ray of sunshine when they're with Gabe, away from hell, away from their daily stresses, away from the expectations of running Hell. LOOK AT THEM.

We saw a hint of this in S1, when they showed a moment of vulnerability. When? In front of Gabe, at the airbase. They can't show weakness in Hell because they can't weaken their position as Prince (Grand Duke?), but Gabriel is the only other being in the entire cosmos they feel is an equal, and they can therefore let their guard down like they did at the airbase, and like they do a little bit more at every meeting with Gabe following Armageddon. Until they were actually showing the real Bee- who is a little unsure, kind of quiet, and a worrier. I always headcanoned that Bee absolutely WAS soft, underneath all their posturing, but only ever in private and only ever with Gabe. AND THEN I WAS GIVEN THAT HOLY SHIT.

Okay now on to Gabe. I always headcanoned that after Armageddon, he fucking broke. He snapped. He was SO TIRED of working toward goals, leading the host of Heaven toward said goals, and then the biggest one of all ended up a failure and essentially it fell on his shoulders. And that's basically what did happen in canon! It started, just like it did for Bee, at the airbase, when it was all falling apart, he turned to the only being he could that would understand his frustration.

He was always the hard-ass boss, albeit an idiot and a dick, but the memory wipe proved there was a sweetheart in there somewhere. Before the season aired, I assumed the memory wipe was what would show Gabe the error of his ways, and he would learn to be gentle and generous and loving through that trial. But it turns out HE ALREADY LEARNED IT BY THE TIME OF THE MEMORY WIPE.

Heaven seems so cold and lonely, and my god the scene where he says no one had ever given him anything. My heart ached for him. Heaven didn't even give him a desk. MURIEL, a 37th order, was given a desk but he wasn't. Away from the cold sterility of Heaven and his obligations, he heard Bee say they liked something, and he realized how happy their enjoyment made him. So he decided he liked it too. He never got to enjoy things (other than clothes), or his time around others, and Bee provided him that escape, simply by saying "I like this song." And then he miracled the song to play because he wanted to make someone, other than himself, happy. And he was ready to swan dive into Hell, give up the clothes he loved, because he knew he'd be okay, he and Bee would be okay if they were together.

Yes, their relationship is way different than I pictured it would be. But I'm framing it instead of being ooc, maybe we weren't seeing the real Gabe and Bee in S1. We were just seeing them as the result of their respective situations.

And the confession, to me, was used as a juxtaposition for the husbands confession, which uh. Did not go nearly as well.

So yeah, the singing to each other and their soft, innocent affection was cringe. But Bureaucracy has always been cringe, Bee is a gremlin and Gabe is an idiot. I'm looking forward to exploring their new dynamic in fic, and maybe filling some of the gaps that took them from where they were to where they are now.

[ilikekidsshows]

Speaking of "why did the authors choose this?": why does Akumatization require living butterflies? It could have been magically conjured butterflies like the Ladybug (Cure's ladybug swarm) or Peacock (Amok feather), or even the Akumatized Bee (magic wasps). After Strike Back I guessed Gabe would prioritize the other Miraculous + forget to hatch new butterflies, eventually running out + unable to Akumatize someone at a critical moment (S5 killed that theory). What do you think is the reason?

The way I see it, giving a character specific limitations can serve a variety of story purposes: 1) not making a character too powerful, 2) the limits themselves giving potential for stories, 3) characterization or 4) symbolism.

The most common reason a character is given limits is so that their power doesn’t break the story. If a character is strong enough to solve every problem with their powers, why aren’t they doing it already? This is the most logical reason for the “can only control one (combined) Akuma at a time” limit Gabriel has. If he could always send out a swarm of Akuma, he should do that. This might also be the reason for Gabriel needing the live butterflies to work as a conduit; generating his own butterflies would make said butterflies be more firmly under his control and they’d be harder to evade. You’d then need to establish what exactly these magical construct butterflies could do.

You’ll notice that the Amok feathers can’t be evaded. This is because the feather is actually created from an emotion the Peacock holder senses or feels, so it just magically floats to its point of origin. The only reason this isn’t as overpowered as the Butterfly getting this trait is that Sentimonsters can be volatile since they’re just a singular emotion, the volatility making them incapable of measuring their goals and abilities the way an Akuma (who has a human mind and personality behind it) can.

Now, limits being used for story potential is more often limited to the protagonists of a series, but there’s no reason it can’t be used with a villain as well. Startrain already gave us an episode where Gabriel was stuck being unable to make another Akuma butterfly, because the one he already made got lost. Another potential here is that it can organically create lulls in Gabriel’s activity. Even when he’s plotting and testing the limits of his abilities, Gabriel wastes no time taking advantage of any chance he sees to try to get the Miraculous. It’s his primary goal. So, the heroes can still get breaks if we make Gabriel’s powers need a finite resource. Every time the plot needs a decrease in Akuma activity, it’s because Gabriel needs to raise more butterflies. Easy peasy.

Then we get to the characterization potential of the butterflies. We have been shown Gabriel taking care of these things, he has full insect raising gear. This tells us without any character having to say the words that Gabriel is absolutely dedicated to his mission as Hawk Moth and will do anything it takes to accomplish his goals with complete dedication. The butterfly tending also shows us how Gabriel is capable of being nurturing when it suits him, since his butterflies are well-raised. This tells us that his neglect of Adrien is a choice, and not caused by him not knowing how to take care of something. Gabriel chooses to neglect Adrien, because Adrien isn’t part of his current goals.

Finally, let’s cover the symbolism in the ways the butterflies are used. From a purely aesthetic perspective, you have to admit that Hawk Moth being surrounded by a swarm of butterflies looks pretty on point. Even though they’re a finite resource, when they swarm like that, they look infinite. It makes him look more threatening, like he’ll never stop coming after the heroes.

There’s also the choice of having the butterflies be white before Gabriel covers them in his dark magic. The butterfly becomes barely recognizable after getting Hawk Moth’s power, but it gains its true form back after Ladybug purifies it. White is a color associated in the west with purity and innocence. The symbolism here is clear: Gabriel corrupts the innocent butterflies to serve his goals, just like he does with the people he Akumatizes. Since the show treats Amukatization victims as victims who need help first and foremost, the visual cues on the butterflies reinforce this messaging.

What is the Princess Bee AU? Never seen that tag.

OH BOY

This one's a mess of an AU but here we fuckin GO

Princess Bee is a nextgen au but within closer-to-canon (like I change /some/ things like Adrien being left in the dark and Gabe being 'such a good father') and post-Season 5.

So ofc more sympathetic to Chloé, but things go down somewhat similar in after being roped into Monarch's nonsense, Andre gets a divorce and gives up all custody rights, and Audrey takes Chloé off to wherever. NY, London, who knows.

Chloé has fully come to realize how fucked this is and all. So she spends the following years getting better. It's hard af without a support system, but she knows she wants to be a better person and that she needs to get her shit together and make sure she has some kind off job path set up because she knows that Audrey will kick her the second she turns 18.

After said kicking out, Chloé changes her last name and uses the better grades she's been getting and the money she squirreled away to get a law degree and also some actual professional therapy to unpack her various traumas in a better way than just rawdogging it on trial and error.

Sometime in her 20s, after getting her shit together both financially and in the mental health department, Chloé decides she wants a kid of her own. She gets a friend to be surrogate father, and gets on with having her own kid. And she's good at it! Not just because she goes 'just do the opposite of what my parents did' but also she does her research and tries her best.

Skip ahead to when the daughter is a teenager, the same age as Chloé was when the Hero v Villain nonsense was happening in Paris.

Chloé gets notice because Andre died and he never actually changed his will to exclude her and she gets everything. She goes to Paris to deal with it and sees the hotel in disrepair and unfortunately Andre's second wife wants answers about the child she never knew about(she's both horrified and furious to find out what happened). After a lot of talking, the pair decide to work together to restore the hotel.

Meanwhile, Chloé brought her daughter with her and ofc enrolled her in school. And just so happens to end up in the class as the rest of the Miracuclass Next Gens. And oh would you look at that the need arises for a bunch of kid Heroes!

Meanwhile the old Team Miraculous are trying to navigate adult life, try to give the kids pointers, and panicking because Chloé coincidentally comes back to town right when a new Villain pops up?

So we have different perspectives of what's happening here. Chloé is just playing irl Homescapes. The kids are on their own superhero adventure. And Marinette is stuck in 'oh god oh god my unfinished business is coming back to bite me in the ass!!'.

Anyway have the masterpost for all the nextgen kids!
