Exaltation

[ladymiraclewings]

We got two kisses from two sides of the love square in S5 and no one of them was erased from the actual timeline this time.

A very happy 1 year anniversary to bisou bisou miaou miaou!

Why has no canon-Adrienette episode hit like the singular Marichat ep of S5 like the chemistry was off the charts no word of irony

[fortuna-et-cataclysmos]

You know what's tremendously funny to me about Marinette's shyness with getting close to Adrien?

They freaking kissed. And they remembered it too, for a change. Well, as Marichat. But still.

Imagine being Adrien. You know that your girlfriend was able and willing to declare her love and kiss you as a mysterious superhero, and then you're here watching her sweat and trip over her own feet around you and you're like: this is fine. This is totally fine.

No wonder he is worried about their relationship. He knows that Marinette's problem is with him only. Thankfully he is super understanding and empathetic, but that can't be too fun for him.

Missing my baby, can't wait to see the new special 🖤🐞

what if i’m not done thinking about elation

[burningstarfishqueen]

Marinette is a mess. She’s most defensive with Adrien, yet her shields fall for him and none of her efforts can hold them together.

Their clothing is symbolic of this, a picture of why the marichat shown in Exaltation didn’t work.

Chat Noir is not just dressed appropriately, but masked. Marinette’s rose imitates a mask, but she can rip it free and he cannot.

She takes a huge step forward in Protection. She has time to change her pajamas but chooses not to.

She accepts who she is and what she has with Adrien. Of course, her nerves don’t just vanish.

Their relationship can only work if he’ll let his protections down as well.

That’s where they reach: a place where they both trust, vulnerable and unprepared in their pajamas.

Happy 1 month since bisou bisou miaou miaou

[jakebakingbaconpancakes]

Adrien: Oh, wow! A kiss can break curses in real life, too?! I didn't know that.

Adrien, sweetie, what do you mean you don't know?

Kiss Kiss Fall In Love

The Elation kiss aftermath gone differently.

This short drabble was inspired by this Tumblr post

Blood was still roaring in Marinette's ears, and the butterflies were still fluttering like crazy in her stomach when she reluctantly pulled herself away from Chat Noir’s lips.

Her whole being was singing with euphoria, and when she looked up to meet Chat Noir’s gaze, she could see by his burning eyes that he felt pretty much the same.

What she didn't expect to see there was shyness.

A flustered Chat Noir? She might be the only one who got to see this. And gosh, he was so cute.

Where did all his usual mischief and playfulness go? Was it she who did it to him?

Marinette’s right hand was still on his cheek, and she caressed it with her thumb, admiring just how soft and velvety his skin was.

“What is it, Chat Noir?” She asked softly. God knows how much effort it took her not to call him Chaton, but she knew that whatever it takes, she had to resist the temptation.

Marinette desperately missed the warmth of his lips. She ached for more kisses. She was dying to devour his lips, to kiss this cute, dorky kitten senseless, to give him what he deserved. These soft, peachy lips were meant to be kissed, again and again and—

"You know, Marinette, I've just realised you were my first kiss," he said, and his green sparkling eyes darted shyly down to the sand he and Marinette were sitting on.

Marinette looked at him with wide eyes.

No way. It just couldn't be true. Haven't they kissed multiple times before?

Well, technically, he was right, since it was Ladybug he kissed. Not that he knew it was Marinette, though.

“I mean, my first real kiss, the kiss I will retain the memories of. All the others, I either forgot them or they were just a dream inflicted by magic.”

Chat Noir finally looked up with a bashful smile, and Marinette nearly swooned at the tenderness in his eyes.

“I'm so glad it was you,” he said, and she could hear his voice shake ever so slightly with emotion. “It was the most wonderful first kiss one could wish for.”

He wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into a warm hug, blocking all her five senses with his scent, the delicious sensation of his fluffy locks against her cheek, the distinct sound of purring, the minty taste of his breath, and the sight of his cat tail twitching, forming the shape of a heart.

Marinette’s heart was so full, threatening to burst. How could someone be so sweet, so innocent, and so adorable as her Chaton?

“You were my first kiss, too,” she murmured, hugging him back.

She heard a quiet gasp, and Chat Noir pulled away to look at her incredulously.

“What? Haven't you and—” he trailed off abruptly and shrugged. “Oh, nevermind. I'm happy to be your first kiss, too. Am I allowed to be the second one as well?”

Marinette giggled and nodded, puckering up her lips.

Her eyes fluttered shut as her mind sank into blissful oblivion.
