Since it’s Valentine’s Day I have a lil headcanon

Ever since he was little Milo always tried to do up Valentine’s Day for Marie, because Colm never did anything. It led to a lot of hand made crafts and cards, and a lot of burnt breakfasts that Marie still pretended were good.

Even if Milo is an adult who doesn’t live at home, and has a Valentine of his own, he still makes sure to get his mom a gift, a bouquet of flowers and a card (that Sweetheart now helps him make).

Alright, I just finished season 2 and I once again have thoughts but before that, I need to make a small correction to my previous post

This season didnt jump headfirst into serialization, I mustve misremembered and honestly, when I thought a little more about it, I dont think it ever tried to be consistantly serialized for atleast the first three seasons (after which I stopped watching). Like, this series is very faithful to its status quo which is pretty bad considering its a SLOW-BURN ROMANCE. Also, while I dont think it ever actually claimed to be Coming of Age, it is allegedly inspired by magical girl anime which have had Coming of Age elements since the genre's conception, but you cant have those if your main characters are all perpetually 14 so that kinda sucks.

Its so faithful to its status quo that all of the episodes end up having practically the same structure and there arent enough episodes that break it up so watching them all back to back makes it pretty hard to really distinguish them. I think the main thing preventing the show from getting boring as you watch it are the fight scenes which are pretty fun and inventive and, in season 2, the introduction of a bunch of new lore and heroes

Speaking of the new stuff, watching this series was kinda interesting because I felt like it was off to a bit of a rocky start and I got kinda worried because a lot of people hail it as the best season of the show so far and I was initially enjoying it a lot less than season 2 but then it did turn out to be pretty good and I liked the way they introduced the new lore and heroes and even Luca and Kagami, whom I was absolutely prepared to dislike. I think its because its all just setup but then I know that they're going to really fumble the payoff so I kinda tricked myself into thinking it was always bad when this season is actually pretty good.

Out of all the new stuff I think the Kwami Power-Ups were the worst. Its so blatantly toyetic in a way that feels really nonsensical and then they use them 2 and a half times and thats it, I dont even remember them ever being used in season 3but that might just be my shit memory

Im just going to restate that I think Master Fu is unecessary and that, between the Kwamis as their guides and the grimoire existing, our superheroes dont need a Wise Old Sage Mentor. Like, just make it so that the Miracle Box was in the possession of Marinettes family but they didnt know about the miraculous and then Marinette finds out but she only has the Ladybug (and maybe the fox and the bee) and all the other ones have been scattered all around Paris or even the world and then come up with some way for Adrien to get his hands on the cat miraculous idc

Luca was fine, hes a bit too bland and Manic Pixie Dreamgirl-ish for my taste except iirc he doesnt even end up advancing Marinettes character in any way, which is pretty much the only purpose a MPDG can serve, so like, what the point, but in this one season hes a good setup to become an actual character later on. Its a shame he never does, but still. I actually loved Kagami which is suprising because I mainly remembered her being kindof boring with some mildly offensive japanese stereotyping and fetishizing sprinkled on top, but shes pretty fun and likable. I love how awkward yet genuinely confident she is and I like the way she and Marinette interacted in Frozer, however briefly. I really liked Frozer in general, it was honestly really cute watching the four of them go on this litzle double date, I totally get all the polyshippers now, especially the Adrigaminette shippers. That being said, Kagami and Adrien really arent working for me as a couple so Im not looking forward to that

Alya, Chloe and Nino were fine as heroes its just that they dont really get any development (other than Chloe) and pretty much all they do is make the plotpoint where Ladybug and Cat Noir cant reveal their identities to each other pointless and nonsensical which is bad because thats the only reason the love square exists and the love square is like, the one Big Thing that this show has going for it. Alyas Rena Rouge suit is literally just Lilas suit down to the body being much slimmer so that sucks. On top of that, she and Queen Bee are unfortunately cursed with having to wear patterned skin tight latex suits with basically no other details because theyre girls in Miraculous Ladybug. I do really enjoy Queen Bees transformation sequence, it has so much personality and while I dont really like Chloe's civillian I do like that it has the same color scheme as her hero design almost like shes broadcasting the fact that shes Queen Bee without a care, even with clothes. Chloes arc was also really interesting and I liked the direction they went with her, i just wish her character development was more consistent because there were episodes where she seemed genuinely reformed even if she hasnt lost that Mean Girl exterior and then there were episodes where she just went back to being genuinely awful again. I dont have a lot to say about Nino except that I hate the hood and I hate his colorscheme. Theres a part in Heroes Day where they show the streets of paris from above while theyre parading these floaties of all the superheroes around and you can see how good Ladybug, Rena Rouge and Queen Bee look together with all of them having these warm main colors and Carapace just sticks out like a sore thumb, just put my man in a lighter more-yellowey shade of green Im begging you

One of the main reasons I was worried about season 2, beyond me mixing up stuff from season 3 with stuff from this season, was the way they handled Cat Noir. In the first season he was being playful and a little flirty with Ladybug but he had a similar playful attituide towards most of the people he interacted with and I guess the writers noticed that it didnt really come across as an actual crush on that part of the love square, so they made it a lot more blatant and made him come on to her much more strongly. Its clear to me that we're meant to symphatize with him when Ladybug rejects him but it seems that no one told the writers that unrequited love is only sad when they never voice their feelings to the person that doesnt love them back, when they keep making romantic gestures towards them even after an explicit rejection, thats just entitled, pathetic and cringe. It couldve been worse but season 1 was a bit better about it

I did like the Adrienette side of the love square far more this season though! Since they actually allowed Marinette to talk to him properly, Adriens personality got to come out more again and it felt like less of a shallow celebrity crush on her part. Its a realy shame that, instead of just continuing to go in this direction with the Love Square, they added Kagami and Luca as these pointless diversions. I think they could have worked, but maybe in a series that focused more on interpersonal relationships in general as opposed to just romantic ones or in a series that decided to get more wacky with it. Like, instead of there being The Love Square and then Luca for Marinette and Kagami for Adrien as Love Square Diversions you couldve had Marinette slowly form this deeper connection with Adrien while she also realizes how genuinely sweet and attentive Cat Noir could be but then Luca comes in and hes so interesting and cute but then Kagami is forward and confident like a realf life Ladybug and she starts to really admire her but oh, she never really noticed how much Alya always supported her and helped her grow....... and then do the same thing for Adrien. Like, go big or go home, GET WACKY WITH IT OR DONT GET WITH IT AT ALL

Hawkmoth is still really hard to take seriously, no surprise there. The moments where he cared about his son and even Nathalie in Heroes Day that were supposed to humanize him were fine, just kinda frustrating knowing that theyre gonna make him even more comically evil in the next few seasons and that its going to be inconsistant

Thats pretty much it. Pretty good overall, but hard to truly enjoy when you know whats coming

Thanks for reading ^^

yesterday I realised my "type" is: bisexual, hedonistic but passionate, kind (like extra kind), a bit toxic, has anger management issues, has a really good best friend (with who they have a sibling like bond like they are really close and i am always doubting if they are fucking and cheating on me or not), well spoken (like idc if it's in a flamboyant way or stoic way both have it's appeals they just gotta be well spoken), shit ton of piercings, politically aware and active but not strongly opinionated, adrenaline junkie and very wild and impulsive, one step away from being a serious drug addict, morbid, very huggable and welcoming, lowkey believe and always argue in favor of the wildest conspiracy theories like earth is flat etc, has a fashion statement, doesn't take anything seriously (that kinda got included in hedonistic but it's important so am restating), always goes on walks at 2 am, sits down with beggars and talks to them while sharing chips, is into music and knows how to play 2 instruments, draws, has trauma, bursts into tears for dropping a pencil, loves animals but hates the concept of having pets, sorta loner, sadist

and like almost anything is out of my league but that, that is the most insanely out of my league thing so hahahahaha

in light of all the anon hate that smut writers have been receiving on this app lately:

if you don’t like what we write, then please kindly fuck off.

don’t leave messages of hatred and bitterness in our inboxes- it accomplishes nothing good, i promise. and if you are a minor who goes around leaving hate on our blogs, then i have a very specific question for you: what are you even doing here bro? i can’t speak for every single smut blog, but i’m sure i’m not the only one who has warnings and age suggestions posted in my bio/works/guidelines. as a smut writer, i create content aimed towards a particular age group- one that DOES NOT include minors under eighteen. so if you’re 17 and under (or if you’re below the legal age in your country), think twice before engaging with that smut blog you secretly read fics from.

and on the topic of smut fics- if you’re thinking of leaving hate on the smut that we write, i am kindly begging you to once again fuck off. everyone has desires, fantasies, wants, etc; smuts are a writer’s way of capturing specific scenarios and sharing them in what is supposed to be a safe space. unless the smut is ethically inappropriate- such as child pornography/ includes sexualization of minors/ glorifies a mental health trigger, etc, then don’t you dare come in to tear down a creator’s content.

idc if you don’t vibe with what we write. so long as our works don’t violate moral codes as mentioned above, we shouldn’t have to answer to petty anons that slide into our inbox to pick apart the smut we write. if our content isn’t to your tastes, then i have a good piece of advice for you. you may have heard this advice before, but it’s very useful. here it is- save the drama for your llama and simply DON’T interact with content that doesn’t strike your fancy.

it’s that easy. we shouldn’t have to tear each other down over things that shouldn’t be an issue in the first place, such as minors reading smut. and please know that if you try to drop hate in this inbox, you will be faced with consequences you may like even less than you like my content.

so to restate the obvious: don’t fuck around with things that make you uncomfortable. it’s like seeing a bug that scares you and deciding to provoke it when you could simply walk away from it.

reblog to help smut writers defend their creative rights!!
