Am I the only one who doesn't think if/when Adrien finds out about everything (him being a senti, the wish, his father being Hawkmoth/Shadowmoth/Monarch (pick your poison)) that he'll break up with or even lash out at Marinette?
I know we've seen him get angry with Ladybug over secret keeping, from not telling him important information and keeping him out of the loop. But isn't this situation different?
For starters, in this scenario, Adrien has already been dating Marinette for a while, at least a few months, before finding out. While this might not seem that it changes much, as he was already close to and in love with Ladybug when they went through their rough patches, there are actually some key differences between these relationships.
For starters, Adrinette at this point is in a devoted and loving relationship. Adrien feels secure in his relationship with Marinette, which is something not always afforded to him with Ladybug. Finding out that she had been keeping big secrets from him might cause a disturbance to this, but being as how their relationship is on much more stable foundation from Adrien's perspective, they may be able to recover more easily.
Additionally, Adrien tends to experience love in an all-consuming manner. Being as how he is in a reciprocal relationship with Marinette, his feelings are allowed to flourish a lot more and are arguably more potently felt than with his stunted affections towards the unavailable Ladybug. He's not going to easily just let go of something that fills him up and makes him feel loved and content.
What's more so is that Adrien as a civilian, is a lot more insular in expressing his feelings than Chat Noir is. Meaning, while Chat Noir might blow up when feeling angry or hurt, Adrien is more likely to keep it inside and either internalize the hurt (by blaming himself) or give himself time to get through it.
Finally, we have seen Adrien's reaction to Marinette being hurt (and it doesn't end well for the person who hurt her). What is, in my opinion a far more likely outcome to an Adrinette fight/breakup, is Adrien seeing Marinette as a victim, because let's be clear here, she is a victim.
Marinette has been through a ton of trauma. And then after seeing it all, she was sworn to silence by a number of people who honestly have more of a responsibility for disclosure with Adrien than Marinette does. Is it not Felix's responsibility to tell him about being a senti? Is it not Nathalie's responsibility to tell him about the crimes his father committed with her as an accomplice? Is it not Plagg's responsibility to tell Adrien about the wish he had to grant?
It is not Marinette's fault that all of these things transpired, and yet, she has been burdened with the knowledge of all of it and will likely be the one saddled with having to relay it all to Adrien. Adrien, who is compassionate and loves her, would likely see the position she was put it and rather than lash out, he would probably want to comfort her.
Thereby putting two very traumatized kids in the position of having to help each other out of their guilt and grief.
#to be clear i love ladynoir#as i do all sides of the love square#and im not saying that theres anything wrong with ladynoir#im just saying that the romance in their relationship was not reciprocal#at least in adriens perspective#and thats part of why they interact differently#i honestly have no idea where s6 will go#but i hope they handle the delicateness of this situation well#miraculous ladybug#mlb#miraculous#ml#ml spoilers#adrien agreste#marinette dupain cheng#miraculeakless#ml leak free#ml season 5#ml season 5 finale#ml season 6#adrinette

god im so stumped for the endgame ship i have so many ideas so imma just babble until my brain clears out
at the end of this theres a poll so yall should vote on what i should do!
Zanemau
zanemau has such a sweet, sweet, SWEET dynamic in mystreet
i imagine zane falls first and falls so incredibly hard
but he doesnt realize hes in love because hes so dead set on being the best, best friend.
it takes someone else calling him out on his actions (buying aphmau big, expensive gifts, being touchy with her, constantly vying to get her attention, giving her custom nicknames that he will get mad that ANYONE uses)
then when he realizes hes like "oh fuck what do i do" and completely panics around her at all times
aphmau is kind of oblivious to this. "i mean like he does this stuff all the time, why would it be different?"
meanwhile, aphmau kinda slowly realizes that shes falling for him. shes more nervous about completely ruining their friendship more than the idea of him rejecting her completely
the big gifts and compliments and touchiness make her SO happy and excited. i imagine zane is pretty tight with money (despite being a nepo baby and sitting on tons and tons of money from his rich ass parents) so when he actively forks out money EXLUSIVELY for her it makes her heart all fluttery
their feelings are obvious to everyone except the two of them. the group kinda actively puts them in situations where they are put together.
they are very much your typical, sweet "best friends to lovers" dynamic. which is why i love it sm
Laurmau
mcd laurmau makes me go WOOF WOOF BARK BARK WOAOAUEHEJFJ
and yes im relying heavily in mcd for their characterizations. those are the true versions of these characters. fight me.
yall seen miraculous ladybug? marichat and ladynoir? yeah. yeah its that. thats them
like okay: he is enamored by her looks but he just becomes absolutely smitten with her personality towards the beginning of pdh season 1. its that highschool crush that never goes away. even when he says it goes away, it doesnt. in fact, as they get closer, it gets so much worse!
he keeps the playful flirting and just teases her constantly
but you know as a friend, so he says
and she always playfully turns him down with a joke or a tease but you know. she knows that's just how he is! he has no feelings for her or anything!
but she was wrong, obviously. when they move to mystreet together after sort of growing apart during college, BOOM! those big dumb feelings come back and laurence is... well you know. hes laurence. he wears his heart on his sleeve and he pulls her aside and professes his love for her.
she turns him down (again) but hes unwavered! they go back to their original dynamic and nothing changes
...except BOOM!!! APHMAU CATCHES FEELINGS!!
mental breakdown ensues (on her end) because "HOLY SHIT I ACTUALLY CAUGHT FEELINGS FOR THIS DUMBASS!!! I CANT BELIEVE THE FLIRTING ACTUALLY WORKED OH GOD FUCK!!!"
the next time laurence flirts with her she drops the bomb so casually like
"hey, mlady, when are we going to go on that date?"
"i dont know laurence. when are you going to take me?" cue dead silence and aphmau locking Eyes with him and staring into his soul
it takes like 15 seconds for him to catch on
and he explodes. his face turns beet red. he blushes and smiles and giggles and practically kicks his feet and that motherfucker is GIDDY!!!
everything in their relationship is basically the same except they kiss
Garmau
I LOVE GARMAU IN MCD
god the way hes all shy for her and he subtly (SUBTLY!!!) tries to suggest his feeling for her
I LOVE GARMAU IN MCD IM SICK GOD
THE FALLING TREE SCENE?!?!?@? CHEFS KISS. LITERALLY AARMAU COULD N E V E R
(once again, im implementing more of their mcd personalities)
okok but this is mystreet, not mcd!
in my notes, garroth and aphmau were childhood friends for much longer! but then aphmau moved, they eventually lose contact over time so she remembers garroth the most but not really zane and vylad as much because shed often stick to his side because she has a little baby crush on him
CHILDHOOD FRIENDS TO STRANGERS TO TO FRIENDS TO LOVERS DO YOU UNDERSTAND MY VISION!!!!!!!!!!!!!
okay but... not really "strangers" but they lose contact for a bit and reconnect in hs.
they dont instantly recognize each other but aphmau instantly recognizes zane when she sees him. it takes aphmau way too long (about 3-4 weeks into the school year, when vylad gets introduced and they go to the park together) to connect that garroth the "hot sophomore guy who i am fortunate enough to share air with who weirdly enough shares the name of my childhood crush/best friend but that surely is a coincidence, right?" is the same garroth ro'meave that she used to play with when she was young
garroth... knows. well he gets it much faster than she does. after all, "aphmau" is probably one of the most uncommon names to ever exist in this universe so he pretty much recognizes her right off the bat but how the fuck do you even begin to address this? (is what he asks laurence who literally just goes dude, just tell her)
and then you know how the story goes, the love triangle (love arrow? love axis? love corner??? ITS NOT A TRIANGLE WHY IS IT CALLED A LOVE TRIANGLE) commences, aphmau ends up rejecting both of them because they stressed her out and the boys chill out and then they all become friends
then college happens and BAM mystreet
garroth is more upfront to the fact that he never really got over her
sure he dated ivy and tried to date in college but nothing felt right
being with and near aphmau just felt right in a way no other person has managed to replicate
and suddenly she was back and the world felt right again
but hes still shy and has no idea how to approach her
(i imagine hes much more flirty and a little more like laurence [less extreme tho] when he doesnt really have feelings for a person)
and aphmau well? shes just happy to be back around him. the sun seems to shine brighter when shes with him and she has no idea why
theyre much more awkward then the other two ships i have listed here
esp as aphmau is falling like oh god. the tension??? the awkward pauses and long gazes??? ugh its delicious i eat it up
much like zanemau, it takes the skittles squad™ (aka the mystreet cast) to the extreme measure of locking them in a room and forcing them to confront their feelings /hj
or on the other hand, one of em confesses on complete accident or OOHH on a late night and just spilling their guts
anyway. again much like my zanemau written above garroth would SPOIL her with his ro'meave money and she would not know how to respond
wow i wrote a lot for garmau
BUT WERE NOT DONE BECAUSE WE STILL HAVE
Garrancemau & other ship ideas
so imagine garrancemau as laurmau and garmau happening cohesively much like mystreet where its a "competition" except they have the underlying tension of a college fling or smth like that
and aphmau kinda like. tries to get them together cuz she can see that they also have feelings for each other and they think this is some gay-denial like that
TRUE LOVE TRIANGLE you know???
but like i also wanna try my hand at rewriting aarmau to be less... bad...
*IN MY OPINION!!!
i really enjoy aarmaus dynamic but i do really like it more in a sibling light so i dont know if i really do wanna go the romance route
but also i love aroace aphmau! or katemau or travmau!
APHMAU IS A VERY SHIPPABLE CHARACTER OKAY? SHE HAS GOOD DYNAMICS WITH EVERYONE!!
so yeah. i dunno!! what do yall think? please, im very curious and im open to suggestions!!
*SUGGESTIONS!! i may not take them and decide to do fuck all so please if you give me a suggestion please know that i may not take it but i value your input and i put it into heavy consideration!!
