Perfect Paradise Ch.22: You're Not a Demon, There's a Reason You Behaved In That Way

Summary: Pain of yesterdays.

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

"I'll talk to him."

"M Dupain-Cheng..."

"...only twelve."

"This is a very serious..."

"...make sure he understands that."

Hugo tried not to fidget with his ear on the door to the principal's office. Their voices muffled, Hugo caught only snippets of their conversation. There was the sound of someone rising to their feet and Hugo sprang backwards into his chair.

The door opened and closed behind Papa. He gave Hugo an unreadable look. "C'mon."

Awkward silence swallowed most of the ride home. Papa's brow furrowed as his fingers fidgeted with the ring on his finger. Even Gregor was subdued as he drove. Guilt and apprehension twisting Hugo's stomach into knots.

Instead of sending Hugo to his room Papa went into their home gym. "Shoes off."

"Huh?"

"Shoes off," he repeated, following his own instruction and removing the tie and dress shirt too. Leaving just his undershirt. Papa walked towards the long mats Emma used to practice her fencing.

"Legs shoulder width apart. Left- er, right foot forward. Bend your knees. Arms up." Papa corrected Hugo's stance.

Hugo was too confused to question him.

"Now," Papa clapped his hands together and held up his palms. "Hit me."

Okay, not that confused. "What? No, that isn't..."

"Your stance is off again Hugo."

"This isn't how it goes!" Hugo protested.

"What, did you expect me to ground you for a month with no video games?"

"Well... yeah."

Papa nodded. "We can do that instead if you want."

"... No," Hugo said quietly.

Papa flexed his fingers.

Hugo pressed his lips together as he retook his stance. Taking a deep breath he threw a punch into Papa's calloused hands.

 "Again. And put your weight into it this time!"

Hugo obliged. For several minutes they just trained. Hugo threw a punch. Adrien caught it. Made some small correction to Hugo's technique. Repeat.

"... Shouldn't you be wearing something to protect your hands?" Hugo asked.

"You can't hurt me, Hugo." There was something about the way Papa said it that made color rise in Hugo's face.

Hugo stopped, eyes blinking rabidly as the heat in his chest tried to escape through his eyes.

Papa placed his hands over Hugo's shaking fists. "Will you tell me what's wrong?" Papa asked gently.

"... He called Maman a golddigger," Hugo said in a small voice, shoulders hunched. It wasn't the first thing the boy had said. Or even the worst thing he ever said. But it was what made Hugo snap.

Papa sighed and Hugo fought between shame and indignation. Why should some jerk be able to say whatever he wanted about Maman? Why wasn't he being punished? It wasn't fair!

"I know," Papa said, and for a second Hugo thought he'd spoken out loud. Papa's hands squeezed Hugo's, kneeling so he was no longer looming over Hugo. "I know it's not fair. I'm not going to tell you he didn't deserve it."

Hugo blinked in surprise.

"You've got a strong sense of justice. That says good things about your character. But it's not enough to be right, Hugo. You have to be smart about it too. And it's not worth hurting yourself to hurt him."

Hugo rubbed at his sore knuckles.

Papa's eyes caught the movement. "I don't mean just physically. I mean here," -he pointed at Hugo's chest- "here," -his head- "and here." Papa's finger hovered over the stickers on Hugo's sleeve before landing on the one with the school emblem.

Hugo scowled at that last one.

"If you can avoid antagonizing authority figures you can maneuver them into doing what you want," Papa explained. "And if you can't you make sure they regret it."

"... Aren't you supposed to tell me to respect authority figures?"

Papa blinked. "Why would I do that? People in authority need to earn your respect just like anyone else. More even."

Hugo said nothing but the shame slithering around his insides seemed to calm just a fraction.

Papa released Hugo's hands, rose to his feet and held out his palms again.

Grasping his invitation Hugo threw a punch and... It didn't connect. His fist stopped a hand span away from Papa's palm. Like he'd hit a pillow made of air. Hugo's eyes went wide.

"How- How did you do that!?"

Instead of answering the invisible force around Papa pushed out. Enveloping Hugo like a warm breeze. Buffeting him with... Love. Concern. Fear. Compassion. Pride. Anger. The bend and weave of it glided over Hugo's skin.

This time Hugo didn't try to stop the tears from falling. For a moment Hugo could see the green aura rising from patterns of flame on Papa's skin. Then he blinked and it was gone.

Papa's presence faded slowly from the air. "Anger is a very useful emotion. As long as you know how to control it. Direct it into something more."

Not trusting his voice Hugo nodded. Wiping at his eyes.

"Which means-" Papa placed a comforting hand on Hugo's shoulder "-for the next two weeks we're going to focus on your self control."

So they did. Papa ran Hugo through various exercises both physical and mental so he could bend without breaking. Taught Hugo how to choose his actions so he could win a fight without ever throwing a single punch. It became routine even after Hugo returned to school.

Only later did he realize Papa had talked the principal down to suspension instead of expulsion.

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

Silence echoed in the vast cavern. The shelves of books swallowing any sound as Adrien gazed down at his kids. Their expressions some combination of shock and disbelief.

Emma's body was limp on the couch. Not realizing her mouth was open. Next to her Louis bored a hole through the floor with his eyes as he hugged his knees to his chest. On his other side Hugo's face burned as his hands curled into fists.

Adrien resisted the urge to fiddle with his ring as the quiet stretched. The vice on his heart squeezing tighter and tighter in the endless seconds.

For your cute little ask game, go with it where you want :3

Adrien shushed Emma. "Be quiet you don't want your maman finding us."

Ooh! This one could go one of two ways and I am torn lol!

Fluff is my normal wheelhouse, but I think this time I'm going to go a bit dark and angsty.

~/~

Adrien shushed Emma. 'Be quiet, you don't want your Maman finding us.'

His two-year-old daughter shook with quiet sobs in his lap as they hid under the nurse's desk. He wrapped his arms around her, trying to comfort both her and himself.

It wasn't supposed to be this way.

Today was supposed to be a happy day. Both Adrien and Marinette had taken the day off from work to go to the doctor's office at the nearby hospital, the family of three going together to see how far along and how healthy the new baby was. It was going to be the first time little Emma was going to see her new sibling.

There had been a commotion in the hallway just after their arrival. He and Marinette had immediately been on alert; Adrien scooping up Emma to protect her and Marinette scoping out the scene to ensure their safety. Years of fighting akumas and battling villains meant that they reflexively responded to sounds of distress and chaos. But what they found was beyond their training.

Two men were fighting angrily, carelessly, in the middle of the hallway, having clearly just emerged from the nearby private room. The woman in the hospital nightgown watched, tearful and distressed, as the men bellowed and brawled, tumbling and colliding in a red rage. The nurse dialled for security before stepping out from behind the counter to try and calm the furious men.

Adrien spotted the danger that was about to befall that young nurse, but Marinette was already on the move. She ran and jumped, shielding the young nurse from the incoming blow. One man's foot made contact with her stomach in a devastating blow, the force of the blow sending her skidding along the floor. Adrien had cried out to her and ran over to her as the two men suddenly halted in their fight. Marinette was clutching her stomach in pain, crying, begging for their baby to be okay. The nurses rushed them into a room to check to see if the baby was hurt from that hit, their panic levels increasing with every step they took, the only thing stopping them from losing themselves to the panic was the hope that their baby was alright.

Their baby wasn't alright. The impact of the kick to the stomach was too severe, and their ten-week-old baby was gone. Adrien's heart shattered, Marinette screamed in agony, and Emma, poor little Emma who had gone through so much chaos in just half an hour, asked what was wrong.

He was in the middle of explaining when a purple miasma suddenly washed over his wife - one he knew all too well. He yelled for people to evacuate as he picked up Emma and ran out of the room, catching a glimpse of what looked to be a white Lady Noire out of the corner of his eye as he escaped. There was an explosion, people screaming as they scattered, followed by eerie singing.

'Rock-a-bye baby, on the tree top, When the wind blows the cradle will rock.  When the bough breaks the cradle will fall,  And down will come baby, cradle and all.'

Adrien shouted that there was an akuma attack and people ran about hysterically, trying to find safety. He ducked under the nurse's table, clutching Emma to him as he searched for somewhere to keep Emma safe so he could transform and save Marinette. He was never more glad for the fact that they had decided to switch Miraculouses for the duration of the pregnancy, but he couldn't go into battle until he knew Emma was safe.

'Rock-a-bye baby, gently you swing,  Over the cradle, Mother will sing, Sweet is the lullaby over your nest That tenderly sings my baby to rest.'

She was getting closer, so he gently shushed Emma, asking her to stay quiet. They couldn't afford to give away their position; he didn't have a plan yet, nor did he have a safe place for Emma. People ran frantically past them towards the exit, the stampede thunderingly loud, and yet he could clearly hear his wife's spine-chilling voice floating above the chaos.

'From the high rooftops, down to the sea  No one's as dear as baby to me  Wee little hands, eyes shiny and bright  Now sound asleep until morning light.'

He could hear the men from earlier apologising to her, their hysterical words suddenly cut off, the air thick and still in their wake. Adrien didn't dare to peek outside his hiding spot to see what happened to the men.

'Rock-a-bye baby, on the tree top,'

Her footsteps were coming closer.

'When the wind blows the cradle will rock.'

Her fingernails clicked rhythmically against the top bench of the nurse's desk above him.

'When the bough breaks the cradle will fall,'

A platinum white braid fell in front of him, and when he looked up, he met the bright cold blue gaze of Lady Blanc.

'And down will come baby, cradle and all.'

Miraculous Ladybug Next Gen Kids (from @princess-of-the-corner’s Princess Bee AU)

These dorks are from Cornerverse’s Princess Bee AU! Check it out! Long story short, this is an early meeting between Adrinette’s daughter Emma and Chloe’s (single parent) daughter Dawn. Chloe changed her last name cuz her parents both suck. Homegirls are gay and for each other and neither of their parents know anything about this!

Cornerverse’s Picrews for them here!

I got attached to Dawn having short hair when I was first reading the AU, so I swapped their hair! :)

Adrinette Future kid time travel snippet

Emmalie Sabine Dupain-Cheng was not impulsive. Assertive, maybe. Confident. But she was not impulsive, no matter how much Hugo and Louis said so. What would they know anyways? They’re 9! Not her impressive and very mature age of 12!

She will, however, admit– she made an impulsive decision. Which doesn’t prove anything. Being impulsive and making impulsive choices were two different things. It was fine. She can fix this.

The burrow had been difficult to navigate. There were a lot of timelines, all with different outcomes and branches and paths.

She tried to remember what Fluff told her. Focus on the linear timeline, her own timeline. Use the exact moment where she came from as a point– a point in time. Stay in line. Follow the line. Follow it or you’ll get lost. Stay in line.

FUTURE ADRIENETTE KIDS!! (I’ve been wanting to draw their designs for a year now and I finally got around to it! Yippee!!)

[awakefor48hours]

Emma Dupain Cheng: Please don't kill me! I have a family! Kidnapper: You think I care Emma: No, it's a warning for you Marinette and Adrien breaking down the door: YOU READY TO FUCKING DIE

[miraculoussly]

I've seen a ton of people draw or talk about Emma so I want to know the majority opinion (circulate for better sample size yadda yadda)

[nedjsmlfavs]

"Bugababy" being Adrien's nickname for a love square child is my greatest contribution to this fandom and you cannot convince me otherwise.

*when Max and Markov are visiting Adrien and Marinette*

Markov: *appears*

Emma: Uncle Max, can you help me invent my own Teminator, please? *puppy eyes*

Max: Oh no! I promised your mother no death robots.

Emma: *puppy eyes intensify.*

(Robot is destroying Paris)

Marinette and Adrien: *glare*

Max: I was weak.

[miraculous-magicalconnections]

THIS HURTS WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO

I never thought about it being their DAUGHTER they (in this case Adrien) wants to bring back, I've always thought of it as one of them but this makes it so much more emotional

"Promise"

been a hot moment, hey? Chapter 9 coming sometime this week/next week if i had to guess

Perfect Paradise Ch.10: And the Walls Kept Tumbling Down in the City that We Love

Summary: Our heroes return to Paris. A threat returns too.

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

Nino waited for his best friend by the exit terminal.

Killing Me Softly playing in his headphones. Yawning from last night's gig. Technically, he could've said no... But it was Le Chemin Sombre! He wasn't going to pass that up!

Paris' more unusual residents were very particular about inviting newcomers. Nino grinned like he was a teenager getting a real shot at DJing for the first time in his life.

Someone was fidgeting next to him.

Nino glanced down and his pleasant mood vanished. Against his better judgement he paused the song and lowered his headphones around his neck.

"Nino."

"Marinette."

"Heard about Rose."

"Yeah. Tough break."

"... They say Chat Noir went supersonic."

"Must've been important."

"Yeah..."

"..."

His phone dinged. He had a text message.

"Listen, about Adrien-"

"I'm gonna get some coffee! You want any?"

"Nino..."

"Extra cream, extra sugar yeah? Be right-"

"Uncle Nino! Maman!" Hugo waved as he ran ahead of his family. The other passengers some distance behind.

Nino grinned at him. The tension not gone but subdued. "Hey, little dude."

Marinette hugged him tight as she gave him her own smile. "Mon ange, I'm glad-" The words died in her throat as she looked up. Eyes widening.

The sides of his head were shaved in an undercut. Leaving just the top of his head and a ponytail tied at the back. But the most striking part was that his golden blond locks were snow white.

Chat Blanc's color.

Hugo's brow furrowed as he noticed her stiffen. Pulling a face as he traced her line of sight. "Yeah, Papa dyed his hair. It's not fair for him to look cool... Don't tell him I said that," Hugo stage whispered.

Adrien paused. "You think I look cool?"

Hugo groaned as a slow grin spread across his Papa's face.

"Oh. Dye. Of course." Marinette shook her head as she swallowed memories of a broken moon and flooded cityscape back down.

Emma was in front of her. Shifting awkwardly but there.

Marinette snapped the rest of the way back to the present and hugged her daughter. Relieved at the halfhearted pats she got in return. "I'm glad you're okay."

Her daughter sniffed as she hugged back a little tighter.

"Maman," Louis greeted.

"Sunshine," Marinette smiled warmly as he let her hold his hand for a moment.

Louis frowned as he took in her distraction.

Adrien walked up and gave Nino a bear hug. Strong arms reminding her of when he would wrap himself around her. When he would hold her like that.

An alarm sounded from Nino's phone that sent a chill up his spine. No, it was from all their phones. He hoped never to hear it again. It was only fair. But of course that didn't change the impossible sound.

Akuma Alert.

If we wanted an angstier version of Bunny brings a baby to Adrien AU...

Imagine Bunnyx brings Emma to the Agreste household and puts her into Adrien’s arms while Gabriel is in the room.

Bunnyx: “This is your daughter from the future. I need you to look after Emma for a little while.” Adrien: “Is everything alright?” Gabriel: stunned in the background Bunnyx: “She’s being targeted by bad people who want to hurt you and your family, so it’s best we hide her here with you.” Adrien: “Of course. And what about Emma’s mum? Will Emma need anything from her?” Bunnyx: “Don’t worry, she’ll be around.” Adrien: “What’s that supposed to mean?” Bunnyx: “Ah ah ah~ spoilers.” Gabriel: “What about me?” Bunnyx: deadpan “What about you?” Gabriel: “Th-this is my granddaughter, right? What can I do?” Adrien: stares at him incredulously due to Gabriel never volunteering anything with him before Bunnyx: “By becoming someone worthy of being her grandfather.”

Imagine Adrien protectively plucking Emma out of Gabriel’s arms post-Gabriel’s identity reveal, not trusting him with his daughter

you know, for angst
