Rare Pair March Day 5

@mlrarepairmarch

“Wow.” Nathaniel gazed at Marinette. 

She looked stunning. Her hair was a beautiful shade of dark blue, with red ribbons in it. Her dress was black, with an Eiffel tower cut in the back that perfectly accentuated her shoulders. It came down just above her knees, and on her feet were red wedges. Man, if this wasn’t perfection, he didn’t know what was. 

Marinette blushes. “Is it too much? I can go change, or...?” 

“No, you’re perfect. I mean, its perfect. I mean, let's go.” He stutters. 

They go to Andre’s little stand to get ice cream. 

“Oh look at the beautiful couple! Perfect! I have just the right flavors for you!” 

Andre dips into the cart. “Strawberry red for the hair, blue raspberry for her eyes, and black cherry for the black jackets.” 

They walk along the Champs-Elysees with their ice cream, enjoying the sunset on their way to the theatre, where they watch their favorite play, La Petit Prince.

Blush

A quick scribbl for @miraculousfluffmonth day one (wow nice time keeping babe), which was ‘Blush’. I gave myself half an hour for this one as a writing warm up, which is probably how I’ll be treating all the fluff month prompts since my existing fics (theoretically) take priority. However I still hope you enjoy it!! Just a simple, lowkey cute fic for u guys

Meanwhile, you can find me on ao3 for Stuff

Blush - a MariNath (?) ficlet (680 words)

Warnings: nudity

Nathaniel remembered the first time he had drawn Marinette's portrait.

He had been drawing Marinette for years, but having her sit for him and smile was an entirely different matter altogether. In his notebooks, he had drawn her in the way that people in love draw; not entirely meaning to, but then the nose would go just so, and the face would become undeniably that of their lover. Some of those doodles in the margins were intentional, intense studies of Marinette’s features, illuminated with the kindest touch of his pen.

It had been humiliating when those idle drawings had been discovered, and he had blushed siren red, as his skin so liked to do.

He had blushed too when he had drawn Marinette properly for the first time. They had become closer over the years, almost in the way he had wanted them to - still wanted them to - since they had enrolled into the same arts school.

Though they weren't in the same classes, since he did art and she was taking fashion - but they'd pass in the corridors and attend each other's showcases and glow as they talked about their ideas together. So, when Nathaniel had asked to draw Marinette's portrait for a study, she had agreed with a bright smile; "Of course! I'd love to! You're my favourite artist, you know?" (She had said this with a playful wink, meant to be encouraging - and it was, to his skin, reddening all the while.)

It had been bizarre in the best of ways, drawing her with that much attention. It was only a simple portrait, Marinette sat in 3/4 view to best display the lines of her face, the light curve of her cheek, the button of her nose, the dark curl of her lashes. She sat in the light of the studio window, the light dotting rainbows into the dimples of her cheeks. He loved looking at her. He loved drawing her. He loved the canvas with his brush as his fingers would love her skin. That same love deepened the paint's hue, drew out the subtleties of its colour, and Marinette beamed when she saw the finished work, eyes glistening with awe.

"It's beautiful... I'm beautiful. Thank you. You're really great, Nathaniel."

His compulsion to blush was overwhelming, "No, thank you. You're a good model."

Nathaniel was a model too, but he doubted as good as her. Whenever Marinette needed help constructing a suit, he would be there and she would be crouched at his feet, pins jutting from her mouth as she shaped the fabric to his legs. Or she would stand at his back, breath soft on his neck, hands sliding across his shoulders while she worked out how to pad them out. Or she would stand in front, hands at his neck, eyes fixated on the lapel with a knowledgeable eye, so that fortunately she did not see Nathaniel watch her and blush over her.

But all that - the fittings, the sittings - did not compare to this.

Fractal light was dashed across other dimples - those at the bottom of her spine - and sunlight drenched her profile as she looked, coyly almost, over her shoulder. The darkness of her hair trickled down loosely over her creamy shoulders, the loveliest chiaroscuro. The slightest insinuation of her chest was visible, the curve of her ass and thigh subtle though pronounced in the way she sat - turned directly away from him, just her back and her butt in the frame. Her body was surprisingly athletic - Nathaniel had no idea where those strong, lean muscles had come from, but he adored them. Capturing their shapes and shadows in graphite was absorbing (that was his excuse).

This wasn't supposed to be any different. It was a regular piece. She'd offered her help. That was it, that was innocent. Marinette wasn't shy, and he'd done figure drawings before. They'd traded art before, and what was more revealing than the soul, exposed?

But this was the first time they both blushed.

nathinette and video games! for... i forget who, whoops

Marinette was a joy to just... watch, sometimes. It wasn’t that she was exceptionally beautiful (although she was, sometimes, if you caught those eyes in just the right light) or animated (though she was that too, always), but rather that she had a spark in her that was hypnotic. Her little gestures and expressions were fascinating.

Her gleeful laugh of victory echoed in Nathanael’s ears from across the library, where they’d set up the video game tournament auditions again, and Nathanael looked up to find Max scowling at the screen as Marinette performed her little dance beside him.

Cute, Nathanael thought, and then coughed and shoved the thought back down, bending down over the sketches for the next page of his Ladybug graphic novel once again.

I find it pathetic that they obviously picked the one male classmate that doesn't show up alot in the show to be paired up with another one who seemingly has feelings for him, then just immediately push them to the side/don't give them any more speaking roles for the entirety of 3 goddamn seasons. If you're gonna never show them again, at least go hard on addressing Marc's crush on a guy like how you did with every female characters. Oh wait, but that would be gay right? I'm still sore about it

My personal theory was to sink some popular ships involving Nathaniel, like Nathinette, Chlonath, and Tomatofox by making him spend more time with Marc, while also getting some online brownie points in the process.

[gale-gentlepenguin]

I wasn't in the fandom during the hiatus between the first two seasons, but weren't there ship wars between Nathinette and the Love Square like what we have with Lukanette shippers and love square shippers today?

Not even close.

The lovesquare was strong. There was Marinath/nathnette but it was treated pretty cordially compared to now. I mean yea there was the occasional anti but the ship salt wasn't close at all.

Uhh.. so this is a Miraculous fic that I saw of Ao3 a long time ago

So Marinette has to pretend to be a boy so she can join a all boy band which is very popular. their members are Luka, Felix, Nath, Adrian..... and that's all I remember.

Plagg persuades *cough* tricks *Cough* Mari into joining the group 'cause the person who was originally SUPPOSED to join gets cancer and can't make it for like a LONG time and Mari fills in

Nino is her long lost best friend and one of the only people who know about this scheme (others being Tikki and Plagg)....

 Soooo..... yea that's all I remember. Help a girl out.

For the ship ask: Marinette x Luka?

C and what really brings the grade down is that so many salty writers only define Luka as he compares to their (salty) version of Adrien. Luka isn’t a wonderful person on his own merits; he’s just better (read: more submissive and nonconfrontational) than Adrien. 

Luka suffers from being a bad conglomeration of everyone who has had a crush on Marinette. TBH if they were going with this “sensitive artist” route, they should have just kept Nathaniel around and built off of that. As is, Luka/Mari feels like a downgraded version of Adrinette, Ninette, and Nathinette strictly because Canon!Luka is so bland. 

[miraculousturtle]

Nathaniel draws her all the time in class bc he thinks she is perfect, but then one day he bumps into her leaving class and drops his papers. He's mortified and blushing, then he realizes Mari dropped her notebook, too. It's full of drawings of him.

There are sketches of him slouched over drawing, his body tense as his nose is almost flat to the paper. Only his hair is colored, bright red and outlandish against black sweeping lines. 

Blue eyes meet--the sea and sky--and her cheeks are pink like fresh spring flowers, her teeth worrying her lip. 

But Nathaniel can only grin as he reaches down with gentle hands and closes her notebook shut. When he’s caught her eye again, he smiles and holds her notebook out for her grab. 

“Don’t worry,” he tells her. “Your secret's safe with me.”

As mine is with you.

Because you must love me how I love you.
