NO WAY!
When Gabriel wanted to use the ring against Adrien at the beginning of "Collusion" Nathalie touched Adrien with her ring hand before provoking Gabriel to enforce his power!
The ring on her finger touched Adrien's skin too which allowed Adrien to fight against the order if he's passionately against it! She's protecting him from Gabriel the way Emilie asked her to!

Part 30. The Return
< First | < Previous | Next >
Description below the cut
Nathalie scrolls through photos on her tablet. The pictures of Adrien have all been replaced by a white void.
Nathalie (internally): Aside from a few unprofessional photos, it seems Adrien has been wiped from the record.
Nathalie looks off to the side, frowning in anticipation.
Nathalie (internally): Gabriel won't be pleased. Any moment, he's going to burst through that door and—
Gabriel bursts open the doors to Nathalie’s room.
Nathalie (internally): Nathalie!
Nathalie (aloud): *sigh* Yes, sir?
Gabriel: I need you to arrange an immediate flight!
Gabriel prances about in dancing delight.
Nathalie: A... flight?
Gabriel: My akuma found Adrien! And then she immediately lost him, but I have my son's last known location now! And! We went near that area when we were all travelling the world! It'll just be one quick trip to grab him, and he'll be back where he belongs!
Nathalie revolves what she knows around her head before coming to a decision.
Nathalie (internally): So, Adrien is retracing our footsteps? He knows something about Emile, so is he just looking for answers? Or is he seeking something we missed that could help her? Regardless...
Nathalie (aloud): I'm coming with you.
Gabriel waves his hand indignantly.
Gabriel: Absolutely not! You aren't fit for the expeditions we used to go on anymore! You can't jeopardize your health traipsing up mountains!
Nathalie looks at him with steely resolve.
Nathalie: It's Adrien. I'm coming, Gabriel. You're going to have me there at your back whether you like it or not.
Gabriel adjusts his jacket in defeat.
Gabriel: Fine. I won't waste any more time arguing with you. You may come.
Nathalie: Very good, sir. I'll make the call.
Gabriel looks down at Nathalie appreciatively.
Gabriel: Your loyalty is truly admirable, Nathalie.
Nathalie: ... I do what I must.
Cut to the rooftop where Chat Noir once prepared a candlelit surprise for Ladybug. A “Find Adrien” billboard is on display there (the spot where Adrien was once depicted replaced with white void), with all the lights that would illuminate it broken except for the one on the end. At the dark end of the billboard, Chat Noir sits on the ground, waiting.
A close-up of Ladybug’s feet ‘plop’-ing to the ground. Chat Noir turns his head to look behind him in excitement.
Chat Noir: M'lady!
Ladybug holds up a warding hand and holds tight to her yo-yo, making Chat stop his attempt to greet her in its tracks.
Ladybug: Stay back.
Chat Noir: M'lady?
Ladybug grips her yo-yo in her hands.
Ladybug: I need to know that you're not some sort of trick. I need to know you're you.
Chat Noir looks at Ladybug with a need to fulfill her every request. Ladybug’s head is shown from behind as the free parts of her hair blow in the wind.
Chat Noir: What do you need me to do?
Ladybug: I need you to remember.
Ladybug, eyes still obscured by blowing hair, holds up yo-yo defensively.
Ladybug: What conditions did you give the Celestial Guardian for relinquishing your miraculous?
Chat Noir: Hmm. I don't remember giving him my conditions.
Ladybug: That's your answer?
Chat Noir holds out his hand invitingly.
Chat Noir: Well, I don't count telling Su-Han to 'come and get it'. You're the one I gave my conditions to: That if I have to give up my miraculous, I will. But only if you ask me to.
Ladybug rushes Chat Noir with a hug, throwing his arms around his neck, as he embraces her with a smile. Images of them together are shown in the background: Ladybug smiling as she hugs Chat and he nestles his face in her hair; Chat holding Ladybug up in the air in front of him as she holds his face in her hands; Chat Noir swinging Ladybug in a circle as she grabs onto him and lets her legs fly outwards around them, Chat smiling as he holds Ladybug close.
Ladybug: That's right, Chat. And I never asked you to.
Chat Noir: You would have. I know you've given other heroes exceptions before, but me? You'd never. I knew it the moment Mayura recognized me: I'd have to go.
Ladybug and Chat cry in each other’s arms.
Ladybug: But I never even got the chance to say goodbye. You were just gone and I had no idea if I'd ever see you again. I’ve missed you so much, Chat.
Chat Noir: I’ve missed me too.
Ladybug boops Chat’s nose with a teasing glint in her eye. Chat gives her a playful grin.
Ladybug: Hold on... did you just say you missed you too?
Chat Noir: Hey, I'm very missable!
Ladybug: Ha! You dork...
Chat Noir: Always your dork, m'lady.
Ladybug take’s Chat Noir’s hand and pulls him towards the railing, pointing behind herself at Marinette’s balcony.
Chat Noir: But shouldn't we be getting out of the open?
Ladybug: I'm already ahead of you: Marinette Dupain-Cheng is spending the night with a friend, so she’s letting us use her room.
Chat Noir pulls his hand out of Ladybug’s.
Chat Noir: Wait. What are the odds that Marinette is actually Mayura?
Chat Noir looks away in panic, grabbing at his bell with one hand and touching the back of his neck with the other.
Ladybug: What? None. She can't be.
Chat Noir: 'Can't' in that you wouldn’t have expected it of her? Or 'can't' as in you’ve seen Marinette and Mayura in the same room together? And there wasn't a chance of it all being an illusion or a fake or—?
Ladybug: Kitty!
Ladybug holds Chat Noir’s hand in front of her (interlocking her fingers in his) and looks directly at the viewer with complete reassurance.
Ladybug: I am 100% paws-itive that Marinette is trustworthy. Yes, she's not allowed to be a temporary hero anymore. But she's safe. I never would have entrusted her with saving our kwamis if I wasn’t absolutely sure she was on our side.
Chat Noir collapses into Ladybug’s arms as she looks at him with concern.
Chat Noir: Thanks for reassuring me. I never wanted to doubt her. It’s just... hard to go back to trusting people when I know I'm wrong about somebody.
Ladybug touches Chat’s face and shoulder comfortingly. He holds onto her arm with both hands and looks into her eyes, comforted by her support.
Ladybug: I'm glad you still know that you can always trust me. You ready now?
Chat Noir holds up the trapdoor to Marinette’s room, following Ladybug down as she holds his hand with both of hers, smiling up at him.
Chat Noir: After you, m'lady...

MLB fandom Math be like ......
MLB fandom Maths is calling Adrienette toxic because they dislike Marinette's obsessive behaviour of Adrien and accuse her of stalking but ship Feligami despite how Felix also stalked Kagami and did worse than Marinette by kidnapping her.
MLB fandom Maths is hating on Kagami because she is getting in the way of Adrienette by having feelings for Adrien but is fine with Luka dating Marinette and supporting Luka at the same time.
MLB fandom Maths is saying Chloe doesn't deserve redemption because she never felt remorse or properly apologized for her actions but at the same time, forgive Felix and support his redemption arc despite him doing worse than Chloe and not uttering a single apology or properly repenting for his crimes.
MLB fandom Math is slandering Alya because they think she is a bad friend for believing Lila over Marinette as well as making a few ignorant decisions but go ahead and call Kagami a better friend despite her telling Felix LB's identity without her permission.
MLB fandom Math is attacking and cancelling small creators by accusing them of predator behaviour when they have made a slight mistake but are silent when a big content creator is openly showing predator behaviour.
MLB fandom Math is being quick to call out the toxic behaviour of some Chloe/Felix/Lila stans but staying quiet when some toxic Maribug/Adrichat or Adrienette stans also show signs of aggression, some even go as far as to support their behaviour (e.g what happened to that one Lila fan)
MLB fandom Math is celebrating the fact Chloe gets sent off to live with her abusive mother and is glad that she is written out of the show, justifying their opinion by saying she deserves to be abused by Audrey but if you say the same thing about Felix, they will go mad and call you an abuse apologist
MLB fandom math dislikes Sabrina's redemption because she only betrayed Chloe because she wasn't being benefitted by her friendship with Chloe and was being replaced but go ahead and support Nathalie's redemption when she ALSO betrayed Gabriel because she was also not being benefitted anymore by their partnership.
Disclaimer: These are just common double standards I've seen in the fandom so I thought is important to address this so please stay respectful when commenting :)

A third interim Scene(I'm working on the next fic I swear!) little Gabenath angst here.
There was an air of energy in the room that gave Nathalie pause. Gabriel’s atelier had been a placid pool of serene creation for so long that even the smallest eddies felt like tidal waves. The change took her back. Back to a time before Emilie’s passing, before Gabriel’s ascension, before Adrien’s birth. The crisp scent of cold Himalayan air was a ghost in her nostrils. The sticky memory of humid Amazonian jungles prickled her skin.
The man himself was surrounded by screens. He wore news, websites, articles, and searches in progress as a flickering discordant halo. His eyes flicked from one to the next faster than she could even follow. A turn of his head took his face from her and her stomach twisted. Oh how she had missed seeing him like this. His hands danced haptic keyboards. An amateurish Ladybug blog held his attention for a full minute while he scrolled down its entire length. Had he noticed her yet? No. She could leave. She should leave. Interrupting him in this state was sacrilegious. Yet- she couldn’t turn away. A much younger Nathalie shoved her from behind. One does not hide from the light long thought lost.
“Sir-” she needed an excuse, better than the business trivialities that had brought her. A forgotten collection behind him would suffice. “...you are finished with the Bourgeois collection?”
His head whipped around, those sharp eyes looked through her with lethal intensity before focusing. He turned away and her heart struggled to restart itself. “It is pointless now, Nathalie. Clearly the girl still has the only thing that matters.”
No dismissal, she dared step closer, into his aura. “If we are sure sir, will we just take it from her? She is only a child.”
His shoulders shifted in response. He glanced over his shoulder at her. It was not a patient one. “A child, Nathalie, with the power of destruction at hand.”
His gaze turned away again, switching crisply between channels on the news display. There will be more, she has known him long enough to anticipate.
“I have much in my favor, when it comes to a match up. However, the risks that come with failure are too great to balance the scales. If my haste were to be the cause of Emily’s true death-”
He choked.
That name, that woman, Emilie was a figure nearly as large in Nathalie’s life as Gabriel. She was a dear friend whose name Nathalie cursed in her sleep. She was a sweet sister whose triumphs Nathalie celebrated while praying to any God who might hear for her downfall. It wasn’t that Nathalie truly wished harm to Emilie. She just wanted all that the other woman had taken for granted.
Yet if Gabriel desired it, Nathalie would act. “Send me.”
He turned. He looked at her again. Her, not Emilie. “Pardon?”
Nathalie stepped closer, raising her chin in supplication while willing him to remember her in camo and canvas, not a suit and heels. “Send me. I have hunted dangerous prey before. I will succeed. Akumatize me, give me the peacock, send me with my bare hands if you must. I will retrieve the miraculous for you.”
His gaze lingered. She could see it in his eyes. He remembered. She had already won the most important victory. That helped ease the sting when he decreed, “No.”
“But, Sir!”
The touch of his hand on her shoulder was heavy, the grip insistent. “Nathalie, were I to lose you, it would be the same as losing myself. I may need magic to power my plans, but I need you to give them form and purpose. Without you I am an artist without a brush. I will never risk you, not even for this.”
His gaze never leaves hers. The cacophony of information plays out around them, ignored. She is raised up and also denied a chance for more in a single stroke.
Nathalie swallowed. She had forgotten how hot Gabriel’s passions burned when alight. She still wore the scars on her heart, but time softened memory. “Yes, Sir.”
The rest piled up behind lips pressed tightly shut against the truth.
He takes back his hand, leaving only a ghost and longing, and turns back to the screens once more. “I will bide my time. We have other tools at our….”
Gabriel drew out the sound.
“Nathalie, contact Audrey Bourgeois. Ask her if she will be attending the fall review in Paris this year.”
Nathalie flipped through mental notes. “Sir, there is no fall review in Paris this year. It is in Madrid.”
Gabriel’s voice carried a chuckle, “Then she cannot possibly be attending, and she will be quite put out about it.”
Her response would be predictable. Nathalie saw the advantage, even as she weighed the cost of having that woman around Gabriel again. It never came to a good end. “Yes, Sir. Might I suggest looking into the family life of one Sabrina Raincomprix as well?”
He didn’t look, but the softness in the ‘Hmm?’ he gave her meant she had provided him with something new.
She explained, “Another child, Miss Bourgeois’s only friend besides her connection to your son. Theirs is a… complicated relationship. It too might bear fruit.”
Gabriel turned his head back to her. The light from the screens reflected off his glasses, hiding his eyes behind the glare. “Excellent work, Nathalie. This is why I cannot risk you.”
She forced herself not to preen. “Yes, Sir.”
He turned away once more. “That will be all, Nathalie.”
Her dismissal reminded her of the true reason she had come. In the face of things it seemed petty and mundane. Without further word she turned and strode from the room. Mere business decisions she could shoulder herself. Gabriel would appreciate being allowed to focus on the things that mattered.
Appreciation was stale bread and water for her heart, but it held starvation at bay for now.

Gabenath Incorrect Quotes
Note: I actually posted something finally it’s been ages 😭
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Gabriel: See so the thing is Nathalie this is why I think we should be together you’re intelligent, beautiful, loyal and you’re ignoring me which means you’re obviously my type
Nathalie: *Busy staring at a computer screen answering emails, trying her hardest to stay awake* Sorry what were you saying sir?
Gabriel: Perfect
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
*If Gabenath was canon*

Gabriel: I would be happy if you ate, stayed hydrated and got a reasonable amount of sleep.
Nathalie: I said within reason, Gabriel. How about I akumatize that guy?
Gabriel: So akumatizing people is in reason but proper self care isn't?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
*Nathalie after she first started working for Gabriel*
Nathalie: *Holding a gift Gabriel designed for her in her hands* Gabriel! How much did you spend on this?!

Is the miraculous timer in your rewrite different and if so how?
The timer still exists, and it still functions the same in terms of activating after they use their power, but it's been tweaked
The timer exists to protect those that are inexperienced with the use of the Miraculous, but it has no correlation to how old the user is (ie; you could be a master at 13 but others could still be a novice at 40)
The timer begins directly after you use the power that is, by both the Kwami and your own stamina's definition, it's "last use"
For example, Ladybug and Chat Noir are only able to use their powers once because they're both inexperienced with the Miraculous and with fighting in general, but if someone like Nora were to use the Miraculous, someone who's well versed in preserving her stamina and fighting, she'd be able to use the power multiple times before the timer activates
And yes, even though someone could use the power multiple times, a timer still activates because they haven't mastered it yet
Once someone masters the Miraculous, the timer stops appearing completely, as it's there to keep the inexperienced users from harming themselves through overuse as using the power draws energy from both the Kwami (to use their magic) and the user themself (to channel it)
To answer a question I'm sure I'll get, here's the five current Miraculous holders and their level at the beginning of the story:
Marinette/Ladybug - Beginner, one use before timer
Adrien/Chat Noir - Beginner, one use before timer
Gabriel/Monarque - Beginner, 5 uses before timer
Nathalie/Paon Aimant - Beginner, 3 uses before timer
Master Fu/Jade Turtle - Master, Infinite uses without timer
This carries over to any and all other Miraculous as you can't go from being a master of the Turtle to a beginner with the Snake, you may not be as familiar with it, but you still wouldn't detransform after use

SEASON 5 ENDING SPOILERS
ok yknow what - more thoughts about the ending of S5 and why I was so thrown by it
Cat Noir wasn't there!!! CAT NOIR WASN'T IN THE GRAND FINALE DEFEAT OF HAWK MOTH?? HOW IS THIS REAL??
That's one thing.
The other thing is how ambiguous Gabriel's feelings toward Adrien actually ARE. does he hate him? see him as someone to be controlled? as a power play? what's up with the pancakes and the 'call me dad' then??? is it just for show/a ruse/a trick/a trap that'll get revealed?
I could see a real change of heart happening when he realized he was dying. if he didn't also continue browbeating Adrien about being with Kagami and not Marinette.
he didn't HAVE a rich-person superiority complex UNTIL season 5, either, so that came out of nowhere.
his attitude towards Adrien doesn't seem to have changed at all WHAT DO THE PANCAKES MEAN THEN?? Even Nathalie is surprised by this! it is never explained!
Then Ladybug comes in with "Nathalie is dying, you're dying, how much sacrifices are you willing to make?? Adrien has moved on, but you're about to DESTROY him! Nathalie is dying! You're dying! Giving his mother back won't help anything!"
and this works?? for some reason?? looking back I suppose the pancakes DID mean he cared for Adrien?????? and the Kagami thing was the one and only thing he put his foot down about?
IDK this needed to be foreshadowed a LOT better. we needed to really see him, telling Emilie or Nathalie "wow... I've been treating Adrien so poorly lately... I should be a better dad... this is really important to me. like even to the point of like. half the reason I'm bringing Emilie back at all is for him!" And guess what? He DID tell this (or most of it) to Adrien! And I didn't believe him! Why? BC HE'S LIED TO ADRIEN BEFORE. He's also manipulated Adrien's friends (and anyone, really!) just to get an akuma victim. (don't tell me this wasn't what was happening WAY BACK IN THE BUBBLER.)
honestly I've NEVER been sure whether Gabriel's concern for Adrien is real. it seemed real in Santa Claws. It seemed very much less real in The Collector. It seemed less and less real with every alternate reality where Adrien/Cat Noir was akumatized because Gabriel found out his identity.
APPARENTLY IT WAS REAL THO? just twisted?
like - the one time Gabriel saw Adrien, just Adrien, and DIDN'T akumatize him! and the time Adrien was in danger and Gabriel gave different instructions to an akumatized villain! the moment Gabriel realizes he's Cat Noir he becomes fair game??
Anyways this. all helps us with not knowing until the last moment what Gabriel is gonna do when he has both Miraculouses to make a wish. but it's NOT WORTH THE AUDIENCE CONFUSION!
and then we have a timeskip to 'happily ever after' basically and the main focus is the environment!?!? and the political system?!?! SINCE WHEN WAS MYLENE THE MAIN CHARACTER OF THIS SHOW?? SINCE WHEN WAS MS BUSTIER THE MAIN CHARACTER?? got me really questioning also bc all this good stuff is too good to be true??? what's the catch?? is Hawk Moth ruler over all Paris or smth?? the whole show is legit about balance, does that only mean balance when it comes to Miraculouses? what's the downside to all this utopian stuff??
we see ?Emilie? I thought?!?! existing? (but apparently it was Amelie??) and that's about ALL the closure we get for ANYTHING
WHAT EVEN HAPPENED THEN? WHAT WAS THE WISH? I thought Gabriel wished for Emilie to be brought back! and the sacrifice was (plot twist!) HIMSELF since he was dying anyway??? BUT NO APPARENTLY THAT WAS AMELIE SO WHAT DID HE EVEN DO? Did he sacrifice himself so NATHALIE could live (I don't remember if she's around but she might've been) for Adrien, and Gabriel could be reunited with Emilie in death??
I COULDN'T EVEN TELL IF MARINETTE AND ADRIEN WERE STILL THE HOLDERS OF THEIR MIRACULOUSES??? WAS THAT WISHED AWAY?? ARE THEY NOT NEEDED ANYMORE BC IT'S HAPPILY-EVER-AFTER PARISIAN UTOPIA NOW?? GABRIEL TALKED ABOUT MAKING MULTIPLE WISHES WHAT DID HE EVEN DO???
and! lastly! and most importantly! WHY DOESN'T ADRIEN KNOW ANYTHING? WHY DOESN'T CAT NOIR KNOW ANYTHING? WHY WASN'T ADRIEN/CAT NOIR THERE FOR THE ACTUAL LEGIT FINALE OF THE SHOW?!?!?!?!
instead we get unified Plagg and Tikki FOR LADYBUG??
IS THIS NOT A TEAM EFFORT?
HAS IT NOT BEEN LADYBUG AND CAT NOIR AGAINST THE WORLD FROM SEASON 1, EPISODE 1? WAS IT NOT INTENTIONAL IN S5 WHEN THE MIRACULOUSES WERE LOST AND IT WENT BACK TO BEING A PARTNERSHIP INSTEAD OF A TEAM???
HOW IS ADRIEN/CAT NOIR NOT THERE FOR THE FINALE!?!?
just. for real guys
legit
endings need to be decisive. NOT vague and ambiguous. not this way.
TL;DR Adrien/Cat Noir needed to be there, and we needed much more clarity on Gabriel/Hawk Moth's motives/intentions. also the ending/epilogue needed. uh. much better prioritization lol.
#miraculous ladybug#mlb#adrien agreste#gabriel agreste#marinette dupain-cheng#hawk moth#ladybug#cat noir#monarch#legit y'all I just call him Hawk Moth#never did like bothering with him changing his name whenver he got new powers#it's a little teensy bit of a stretch whenever Ladybug unifies with another kwami and goes AHAHA I AM DRAGON BUG NOW or whatevs.#and it makes sense differnet holders of the same kwami have different names#e.g. Cat Noir and Lady Noir and Kitty Noir (clearly the 'noir' caught on and is memorable lolz)#and Ladybug and Scarabella#and Aspik and Viperion#etc. all makes sense perfectly#but the main villain changing his main title from season to season is just. ugh#IDK most of the time in S5 he's JUST Hawk Moth but his suit is still different??#nathalie sancouer#emilie agreste#s5#miraculous ladybug season 5#mlb s5

Look, I know everybody wants Marinette and Félix to tell Adrien about Gabriel having been Monarque and Adrien himself being a Sentihuman, who was all his life controlled and abused by his now both dead parents (if it really ends up having been Amilie at the pool party)
But for me personally? I don't want anybody else doing that besides Plagg and Nathalie. Those two I actually trust to understand the hell Adrien was put through.
Marinette and Félix can help Plagg and Nathalie to be there for Adrien by giving their knowledge and input. But besides that? Why would I want it to be Marinette and Félix who tell Adrien about these things?
They are massively biased by their own narratives and limited knowledge on the insights of the Agreste's family life (especially Marinette) and worst case scenario they make Adrien's abuse about themselves which they have a habit of doing.
They have every right to get through their own issues regarding Gabriel and how Adrien's abuse makes them feel but keep Adrien himself out of that. They will approach it in a way where Adrien has to end up comforting THEM and keep quiet about his own pain and perspective AGAIN because of how much Marinette and Félix have to carry on their own in this regard.
Respectfully, they can get themselves a different therapist than Adrien for this. I don't wanna see that shit.
The only two people I want to see tell Adrien about Gabriel having been Monarque and Adrien himself being a Sentihuman and help him understand what all of that means for him are Plagg and Nathalie.
Because they lived by his side in this damn house. Nathalie knows the monster of a father and person Gabriel became better than anyone else while also understanding his family's past and Plagg was on Adrien's side each and every day. Plagg knows every bit of mistreatment, abuse, neglect and exploitation Adrien was put through because through all of them Plagg was with him underneath his jacket to wittness it.
For me it's Plagg and Nathalie. No, they weren't exactly perfect towards Adrien either, but only then I know Adrien truly is in the right hands.

Part 26. Asynchronous Expectations (Oni-Chan 2.0, part C)
< First | < Previous | Next >
Description below the cut
Astrocat wings pattern from here.
Ladybug leaps through the air, swinging her yo-yo towards the Agreste mansion.
Ladybug: Those ribbons were coming from Adrien's place. Now where's the villain...?
Cut to Gabriel’s atelier, where Oni-Chan is throwing up her hands (one hand holding her sword upwards) in exasperation while looking at a sentimonster—the Unpublisher—as he holds up a single finger.
The Unpublisher: It looks like you want to know what my powers are. Would you like help?
Oni-Chan: Yes! I just said that!
The Unpublisher has an uncanny smile and holds up a hand in helpful explanation. (The Unpublisher is an unsettling inversion of Adrien Agreste—blue hair, dark blue skin, a black overshirt with a white undershirt, hair parted on the other side, and all line art with white lines instead of black.)
The Unpublisher: To delete a picture of Adrien Agreste: Hold my amok and order me to delete a picture of Adrien Agreste.
Oni-Chan picks up a photonegative that was left on the corner of the central platform of Gabriel’s atelier.
Oni-Chan: Is this it?
The Unpublisher: That is the amok belonging to the Unpublisher. Helpful tip: the Unpublisher is me! This amok can be used to control the actions of the Un—
Oni-Chan: I get it.
Oni-Chan holds the photonegative and points towards Gabriel’s computer. The Unpublisher looks at her with a large grin.
Oni-Chan: Look through that computer for Adrien Agreste photos. Delete all of them from existence.
The Unpublisher: Got it. Please be patient while I take care of that for you.
Ladybug throws the door open and leaps into the room, wielding her yo-yo. A couple black ribbons are starting to weave their way into the world.
Ladybug: Not if I have anyth—
Ladybug is abruptly swarmed by a dense slurry of the magical ribbons conjured by the Unpublisher as he deletes every image of Adrien that Gabriel owns.
Ladybug: —Mmph!
Cut to Rena Furtive looking through her telescope at Oni-Chan teleporting across the rooftops as the ribbons fan out across the world.
Ladybug (over comm): I can't get past these ribbons!
Rena Furtive: You might not have to. Oni-Chan’s mass-teleporting again. She’s holding something new—I assume it's an amok?
Ladybug (over comm): Then I’ll have to bring her to me...
Cut to Nathalie’s bedroom, where Nathalie sits on the edge of her bed as she speaks to Ladybug. Her room is largely untouched by the ribbons (though a few can be seen flowing past her windows). Note that Nathalie has a large map of the world on her wall.
Ladybug: Ms. Sancouer, I need your help. Do you have a picture of Adrien that Mr. Agreste doesn’t have copies of?
Nathalie: I believe so.
Nathalie (internally): As much as I want to find Adrien, I can't risk an akuma like Oni-Chan leading Gabriel to him first. If Gabriel asks, I’ll just say I couldn’t refuse Ladybug without rousing suspicion.
A closeup of Nathalie holding her tablet, on which is a picture of Adrien as he stole the grimoire. He has yet to be deleted.
Nathalie: Here.
Ladybug: Wait, don't look yet—
Oni-Chan teleports in and hits Nathalie (and her tablet with the offending image) with her sword, petrifying her. Oni-Chan looks towards Ladybug and waves an angry fist (which holds the photonegative amok).
Oni-Chan: Again, Ladybug? Why must you keep getting in my way?
Oni-Chan swings her sword towards Ladybug, who manages to deflect it with her yo-yo as she leaps back.
Oni-Chan: I just want to find Adrien! Don't you want that too?
Ladybug: Not like this! I won't let you hurt everyone just to get to him!
Close-up of Oni-Chan’s unyielding eyes.
Oni-Chan: Then perish!
Ladybug, on pure instinct, yells and throws her yo-yo.
Ladybug: Chat Noir, now!
Ladybug clenches her eyes shut, berating herself.
Ladybug (internally): Stupid reflex!
Ladybug yanks her yo-yo back before it makes contact with Oni-Chan.
Ladybug (internally): He's not here!
Ladybug uses her yo-yo to flee as Oni-Chan lunges towards her. But behind Oni-Chan, Catwalker has backflipped into the room behind her, his finger touching the amok with his Cataclysm.
Ladybug (internally): I have to fall back and try something els—
Catwalker: Cataclysm!
A closeup of Oni-Chan as she teleports away as the feather starts to emerge from the amok.
Cut to a closeup of the Unpublisher as he begins to dissolve, his mouth forming an ‘O’ as his final ribbon fails as it comes out his finger.
Cut back to Nathalie’s bedroom (she’s still petrified), where Ladybug raises a hesitant hand towards Catwalker.
Ladybug: C-Catwalker? Where’s the amok?
Catwalker: Oni-Chan took it with her when she teleported away.
Ladybug, face in panicked shock, clenches her fists.
Ladybug: No! That means I can’t heal the sentimonster’s damage!
Catwalker holds out an appeasing hand.
Catwalker: But it was only destroying Adrien Agreste’s modeling photos, right? No one got hurt. And I don't think Adrien would mind losing all that exposure.
Ladybug holds up her hands in infuriation.
Ladybug: Not mind??? Those pictures are incredibly important to Adrien and everyone who still cares about him! They were all anyone had left of him!
Catwalker slumps and touches the back of his neck.
Catwalker: I'm sorry.
Ladybug: What were you even thinking?
Catwalker: I thought... I thought I was following your orders...
Ladybug points her finger in accusation.
Ladybug: The only order I've given you is to stay out of my way. And you can't even do that! I am this close to taking that ring and giving it to someone else, screw what Mayura promised!
Catwalker backs up against the bedroom door, shamefaced, holding his baton in both hands in front of him.
Catwalker: You called for Chat Noir. Since he couldn't answer you, I just... did what I thought he would have done.
Ladybug shoves Catwalker through the doors, bursting them open. Catwalker loses grip on his baton as he tumbles backwards.
Ladybug: Don't you dare put the blame on him! You aren't Chat Noir! And me calling for him out of old instincts does not give you the right to act like you could ever fill his shoes!
Ladybug slams the doors shut.
Ladybug: Here's your new orders: Go home! You've put in your mandatory appearance, now leave me alone!
Cut to a conciliatory Rena Furtive calling over her comm, split screen with Ladybug as she answers over her comm, trying to get a grip on herself.
Rena Furtive: I'm sorry. I know how important Adrien's pictures have been for you.
Ladybug: I can't worry about what's been lost. I need to figure out my next move.
Rena Furtive: All the other heroes have been frozen by Oni-Chan. We're running out of allies. If we can't use Catwalker, I might have to expose myself and join in the battle.
Cut to Catwalker as he sits sadly on the floor on the other side of the door, hugging his knees and eavesdropping on Ladybug.
Ladybug (voiceover): I can handle this all on my own. I just need a...
Cut to the creation of a Lucky Charm. It’s a pair of gloves holding hands, one red covered in black spots with Ladybug’s emblem on the wrist, the other solid black with a red paw print on its wrist.
Ladybug: ...Lucky Charm!
Rena Furtive (over comm): What did you get?
Ladybug: A red glove glued to a black glove... holding... hands?
Ladybug looks frazzled and in deep denial as she lifts one of the fingers from the red glove and making it point somewhere.
Rena Furtive (over comm): I hate to say it, but that sounds like you do need to ask for help this time.
Ladybug: No! This can't mean that I have to use him! It's obviously just pointing towards...
Ladybug holds a pencil in the air, about to throw it, as she starts to cover her eyes with her other hand, one eye peeking as she takes aim.
Ladybug: ...This pencil! And if I close my eyes and throw this pencil at this map, it'll show me where Adrien is!
Rena Furtive (over comm): Uh... I don't think your Lucky Charm works like that...
A close-up of the map, where the pencil has embedded itself. Ladybug takes a picture of it with her yo-yo.
Ladybug: I've got the coordinates! Now I just have to follow them! Power up!
Catwalker watches Cosmobug flying through the sky via the window. In one hand, he uses his baton to take a picture of the map; in the other, he holds a purple piece of cheese to his mouth.
Catwalker (internally): I'm sorry, but I think I have to disobey you once more, m'Lady...
Catwalker (aloud): Power up!
A closeup of a pair of cuffed black gloves in front of magical green wings. He holds his baton in one hand and points at the picture of the map on its screen with the other.
Astrocat (internally): If I take a path curved away from the equator... I can get there before Ladybug does and—
Pull back to show Astrocat—the powered-up form of Chat Noir, not Catwalker—looking at himself in panic.
Astrocat (internally): Oh no. I powered up as Astrocat without thinking!
Adrien hides himself behind a wall and detransforms. Adrien closes his eyes and tries to focus. Plagg, meanwhile, helps himself to another piece of purple cheese.
Adrien: Claws in!
Adrien (internally): Focus! You're Catwalker. Perfect... Controlled... No more cat puns under any circumstances...
Adrien (aloud): Plagg, claws out!
Astrowalker—now in his proper form—resumes his flight to the location Cosmobug thinks she’ll find Adrien.
Astrowalker (internally): I really hope that no one saw that...
Cut to Rena Furtive, who Saw That.
Rena Furtive: Chat Noir...?

Congrats MLB S5…you have become the 💩 show I always knew you could be.
Rant 1: the emilie/Gabriel backstory is adorable
Rant 2: Nathalie vs Gabriel? We alllll knew it was coming, but my goodness it ripped my heart out. I hope there’s a time reversal or some kind of multiverse where gabenath could have been a thing. I just can’t accept gabriel is gone for good, especially the way they portrayed his “death”.
Rant 3: the way they COMPLETELY excluded Adrien from determining his own happiness and discovering his father’s failures is so inexcusable. It’s his bloody life that is controlled by the rings! Geez.
Rant 4: Adrien is fatherless which is never ideal. I have a feeling this is not going to end well for him. The writers could have written a redemption arc for Gabriel, but instead they pushed him to be a complete monster which goes against the conflicted villain he was in S1-4. Locking adrien away? Holy freakamoly :(
Overall, the finale is very well written, but ethically I see some flaws.

I've noticed something in the MLB fandom which is that a lot of Chloe stans (not all of them) seem to dislike/hate Felix while a lot of Felix stans (not all of them) seem to dislike/hate Chloe which is interesting because Felix and Chloe are really similar and have some things in common.
I've noticed that too. From what I've seen in the fandom , is that you either Stan one or the other or you hate both. From my observations :
People who stan Chloe but dislike Felix seem to mostly be Chloe Stans and some Adrien stans
People who stan Felix but dislike Chloe seem to be mostly Felix stans with some Nathalie/Gabriel/Kagami fans
People who dislike both Characters seem to be mostly Marinette Stans and some Zoe stans as well.
Tbh , I DON'T blame Marinette stans for hating both Felix and Chloe as both have been nasty to Marinette in the past. I also can understand why some Chloe stans resent Felix because they have been told time and time again by the show that Chloe is undeserving of redemption for not repenting for any of her crimes yet in S5 we witnessed Felix pretty much get away with everything he did between Strike Back and Emotion and got to keep his miraculous and join the hero team despite being 10x worse and not apologising once. That will get anyone angry. What does confuse me is some of the Chloe disliking Felix stans that don't admit the double standard. Some Chloe disliking Felix stans do admit the double standards going on but the ones who don't puzzle me? What has Chloe ever done to Felix ? They are quite similar like you said so it's interesting some people dislike Chloe for the same reasons they like Felix for ?

please can we have some more nathalie headcanons??
Of course :)
More Nathalie Sancouer Headcanons
Note: Nathalie is a queeeeen
Nathalie loves Italian food (usually any type of pasta)
Nathalie was in the delivery room when Adrien was born and cried when she got to hold him for the first time
Back in her days of being a tour guide, Nathalie kept up an avid habit of scrapbooking, which she still indulges in whenever she goes on trips with the Agreste’s
Nathalie likes to clean whenever she’s stressed as it helps take her mind off things
Nathalie’s favorite clothing item is blazers
Nathalie once tried to learn sewing because she knew how much Gabriel loved it but she kept pricking her fingers so she gave up
Nathalie was always the first one to be able to tell the difference between Adrien and Felix whenever they pretended to be one another
Nathalie loves to sing in the shower
Before she goes home, Nathalie will always check in on both Adrien and Gabriel to make sure they’re okay
Nathalie is a workaholic
Nathalie’s favorite holiday is Halloween
Nathalie often wakes up in the middle of the night with bouts of anxiety
Nathalie is self conscious about her appearance and never looks at herself in the eye when she’s looking into a mirror
Nathalie secretly seasons Gabriel’s food so that it will actually have some flavor and not taste like cardboard
Every morning Nathalie will wake up extra early just to put her hair in that intricate bun
Nathalie loves crime shows and horror movies
All her life, Nathalie’s dream has been to see the world
Nathalie hates wearing contacts
I love her sm!
