coup d'un(?) soir

[jennagrinsoverml]

Do you have any Adrien-centric angst fics? Like, fics that will completely gut you emotionally and you have to lay down for an hour after you read it just to decompress?something like that?

I've recced angst fics before, but let's have some SADRIEN hours around here, shall we?

a fight that you were born to lose by @captainkirkk

When the prosecution starts throwing around the word victim in reference to Adrien, he has to stuff his hands under his thighs to keep himself from bolting out of the courtroom.

Adrien had felt unsafe during those last few weeks, but, until he had woken up and seen Father silhouetted in his bedroom doorway, that had only been paranoia. Father was controlling and cold, but he wasn’t hateful. Adrien was isolated. He was often hungry. And some weeks ago, when he had snuck out to visit Nino, sitting thigh-to-thigh on his bed while Adrien cried in that silent, crumbling way of his, he hadn’t argued when Nino put a hand on his shoulder and said, tentatively, That’s abuse.

But Adrien remembers being small and Father touching his hair after he’d aced another test; Father holding his scribbled drawings like they were something precious, and framing them around his office; Father, dressed as Hawkmoth, his eyes wild behind the mask, lashing his sword against Adrien’s baton; Father, collapsed against Mum, crying into her ashy hair.

Adrien finds out Gabriel is Hawkmoth, and Gabriel gets to bring his long-waited plan into action.

One-shot. (But a LONG one-shot--it's 18k.) This one really digs deep into the abuse that Adrien suffers at Gabriel's hands and the emotional fallout from that. Gabriel is really, really, really terrible here. Worse, I don't think it's OOC at all. This fic is gorgeous, but it's a hard read and it goes to some dark places.

Anhedonia/When Adrien Met Marinette... by @mikauzoran

Chat Noir hadn’t been lying when he told Ladybug he’d moved on. It was only when he found out that Ladybug was Marinette that he realized he was wrong. Meanwhile, Marinette thinks that she’s missed her chance when Adrien insists that he’s gotten over his feelings. Now, they’re roommates and making themselves miserable as they pine for one another, thinking the situation’s hopeless. Things finally come to a head, and they’re forced to sit down and have an honest conversation about their feelings.

One-shot. Adrien's just so sad and lonely and pining here, and I'm here for it. I really found myself getting swept away in his feelings as I was reading. This isn't dark and doesn't get into any heavy issues like some of the other fics on this list, but I found that it was very relatable and evoked a lot of emotion.

Adrien and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by @vickyvicarious

Chat Noir's used to bad luck - it kind of comes with the territory. But detransforming in the middle of a crowd of reporters is a little worse luck than he’s used to having.

And he hasn’t heard a thing from Ladybug since.

(AKA the "everyone finds out all at once" angst fic no one asked for.)

One-shot. Oof, does this one ever hurt. Adrien's painfully in-character, and the way he's trying so very hard to stay positive even as his life is completely falling apart and everyone keeps hurting him...it's so him and it packs a punch.

The Importance of the Black Cat by @chatonne-rousse

Plagg gets down almost two full wedges of cheese before Adrien sits down on the edge of his bed with a heavy sigh.

“Hey, Plagg?” His voice is quiet but doesn’t betray any emotion yet. That’s actually more worrying.

Steeling himself, Plagg swallows the last big bite of cheese and zips from the desk to perch on top of the globe, facing his holder. “What’s up?”

He heaves another sigh before looking up into Plagg’s eyes, emotions still unreadable.

“How important is the black cat?”

*****

Adrien has a lot on his mind - concerns, questions, doubts. And right now, he has only one being to confide in. There is not enough cheese in the world to make Plagg want to handle this situation, but his holder needs him, and he knows two things with certainty: his very important place in the world, and that no one hurts his kitten. Not if he has anything to say about it.

One-shot. You want some season 4 flavour Adrien angst? How about some post-Optigami wallowing? I love the portrayal of Adrien and Plagg's relationship with the mix of light and heavy. Pretty sure I still owe Rosie a sequel to this one because I wanted to see more resolution afterwards and made the mistake of sharing my thoughts on that 🙈 It's just very thought-provoking!!

Working Past It by Taitai83

Chat is deeply hurt by Ladybug's actions, and he needs to process those feelings. He finds that confiding in a friend is helpful in finding clarity.

One-shot. Here, have some more season 4 angst! This one is shamefully overlooked. Go read it and help fix that!! Remember when Gang of Secrets came out and we all wondered how Chat would react when he found out Ladybug told someone her identity? This was an early stab at that, and I found the reactions and thought processes here to be so in character. Plus there's some nice marichat hurt/comfort, though purely platonic.

Timetagger 3 by rosebud1000

Years after Hawkmoth's defeat, Marinette and Adrien encounter Timetagger for the third time. And this battle hits closer to home than any other.

One-shot. Here we have some more of the fallout from Gabriel being a shitty parent, only we have an adult Adrien who is a father himself struggling to reconcile how his father acted with his own parental feelings. As a parent, I really felt this one.

Chat Noir's Family by fleurjaune

The thing is-

The thing is Adrien doesn’t actually mean to lie. Not at first anyway, but they have to keep their secret identities secret don’t they?

And his family, well, their tragedy is out there for the world to see and the world did see it.

One-shot. The more Chat lies about his life and his family, the more we learn about Adrien and see how he wishes his life was. And that chasm...really fucking hurts. I wish this sweet boy could have the kinds of relationships and family dynamics he lies about.

Partners by @karkalicious769

"Um." Alya fidgeted nervously as her earrings beeped their countdown. "Ask me a question that only Ladybug would know the answer to."

Chat Noir barred his teeth, and— Were they always that sharp? At least he wasn't growling again. "You are not Ladybug," he snapped.

"Just do it!"

It was all Alya had to go off of and she really needed to pull this partnership together before the akuma got any worse. She wasn't deluded enough to think that she could do this without Chat Noir.

One-shot. SPOILERS FOR HACK-SAN!!! And yet some more season 4 feels because let's be serious, this season is putting our kitty through the ringer. And this fic definitely does it, though by playing with the episode a little. Although we've got a tight Alya POV, Adrien's hurt and suffering is palpable, and made all the worse by how resigned he is. Read this and sufferrrrrr.

- tin

PLSSSS I HAD SO MUCH FUN READING THROUGH YOUR ASK 😭😭 i was like oh gawd what is gonna happen next!!!!! but wait i dO know what’s gonna happen next!! tysm for reading and appreciating bff i loaf u

[ahundredtimesover]

Omg mimi the way that i was just getting up from the floor and you decided to kick me again with that tiny escene of angst </3 I loved it tho because they fixed it so maturely none of them walked away from it and they both tried to make things right this time, it was so nice to see them being honest with each other.

This oc is so much like me in a lot of ways and it's so encouraging to see that she's being able to enjoy things and love and be loved i love this family so much!!!

These two are SO meant to be istg, like oc always trying to push him away to protect herself and her daughter and also him and then jk is like fuck that i want YOU and always make her FEEL things, that it might sound so basic and easy but for people like oc it's actually really hard to not overthink everything in order to not get hurt. So her being this open to jungkook these last chapter its such a huge advance that it's probably not that big deal for people that it's not like her.

BTW YEAH YOU'RE REALLY SERIOUS ABOUT THE SLOW BURN HUH DO YOU ENJOY MAKING ME SUFFERRRRRR????????? not but anyway i'm a happy girl with that last hug and the kisses on the cheek but now i kinda want more im sorry i'm insatiable now

I adore you, pls!!! 🥺🥺 Just needed that little scene to show that they’re still human and they’re figuring this out, but that they’re in this and that they’ve changed, precisely bc they want it to work.

And agree - planners and over thinkers need a lot worked out in their heads; it’s not always easy, but sometimes all it takes is some who understands and who accepts us for us to be able to give it our all. I��m glad you somehow see yourself in her 🥰

They’re getting there, I promise 😭😭 these last 2 chapters will be worth it! As always, I appreciate you so much. Will always be grateful for your ask about single mom OC (and I’ll always mention it!)

6, 26, 36? :)

Wheeeee thank you friend!6: So Amora-Tae thinks it's obscenely fun to just... kick things. But barefoot is her fave. She likes to kick. Berries? Great. Baskets? Awesome. Pottery? Lmao you bet fam. Has she gotten hurt doing this? Absolutely. Does it perplex and bother [name redacted] to no end? Of course it does, she keeps kicking solid pots and every time one shatters she's just more encouraged!! It makes [name redacted] so upset because like, sure, they're Jir so their bones are naturally more solid and they heal faster and it's not like she'd be in pain, she can block it out. But STILL. 26: So, I'm like 99% decides on her love being my demisexual character and I mean, they've known each other forever, and been best friends forever, but they've both had their secrets so they end up getting even closer and bonding more and more. The entire time they had both thought the love interest was asexual because, well, they didn't experience any attraction, but, lo and behold! But since it isn't a surprise to her, she's really understanding on their limits and allat, but it does take a while for them to both come to terms with the fact that, okay, this isn't exactly a clean cut thing, and ya know, as their relationship platonically (and romantically oooooo) has developed so have they individually and together so yeah I love them so much and I almost feel bad making them suffer but? Guess What? They're gonna SUFFERRRRRR.36: So Amora-Tae herself is pretty healthy, she doesn't have any outstanding conditions like asthma or migraines, but she does have pretty bad knees, which runs in her family.

More on the YOI Actor AU

(Original post)

eight-orange-flowers said: 

Yuuri, Victor, and Yakov in that order and I love this very much.

:D

I

plot twist: the YOI show in this AU is actually starring Yuri, not Yuuri. Yuuri is Yuri’s rival <--- a.k.a YOI Yuri POV

the scene in the original post is one in one of the special episodes that were made due to popular demand from fans who wanted to know how things went with Victor and Yuuri <--- a.k.a the actual YOI anime episodes.

Yuuri, Yuri and Victor are still skaters: Yuuri and Victor are around the same age and retired, Yuri is still in junior division for one more year

II

the first episode starts off with the (in)famous Sochi GPF with a bit of background that mentions Victor being a figure skating Living Legend, and Yuri’s admiration of Yuuri  “screws up his jumps but his steps grab your attention. I want to see him skate without mistakes”. then it goes on to mention Victor getting the gold medal again and Yuuri crashing and burning. and it shows the Yuuri-Yuri bathroom confrontation afterwards. then there is a time skip after which we are shown Yuri practicing, Russian Skating Family Shenanigans, and basic daily-life arc things. then comes the video and Victor flies to Japan. the episode ends with the Onsen On Ice competition declaration and the introduction of Eros and Agape. I’ll make a bad director won’t I?

III  

my favorite parts are the ones that involve the in-universe YOI fandom :3

so you have the fans who watch the show because they are already fans of figure skating and know what is going on between the skaters and everything. 

and you also have the fans who don’t really know much about figure skating but got curious, start to watch it and get hooked.

now imagine those two sides of the fandom clashing.

contemplate the first episode and how the fandom will react

the figure skating fandom will already be losing their shit, Victor-fans are proud of their dork idol becoming a Living Legend in the show, Yuuri-fans are crying over both what happened in Sochi (”why did you have to make my baby sufferrrrrr”) and the Eros routine (”cackling YOU GAVE THIS TO YUURI YOU SHALL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED”), Victuuri fans are already making jokes and drawing fanarts and writing fics and sharing little bits of amusing headcanons (”I bet that Victor saw the Stammi Vicino Non Te Ne Andare video and immediately went ‘my angel needs me imma go to Japan right away let me love you Yuuuuuuuuuriiiii’” “he totally showed up naked in front of Yuuri” “he totally tried to sleep with Yuuri”)

the new fans are confused over the Victuuri explosion, like??? why is everyone??? shipping them right away???? they didn’t even have that much screentime?

imagine the figure skating fandom telling the new fans that Victuuri is actually canon IRL

the new fans don’t really get what’s so exciting about Victuuri until the next episode airs and they see the Eros, Victor’s Inexplicable Need To Touch Yuuri, Naked Victor and the Wolf Whistle

I should stop I need to organize my thoughts more nghhhhh
