Little painting I did yesterday, new Gelfling OC called Lyni! She’s a Vapran, a bit of a snob and has two very yappy and spoiled Fizzgigs
(I’m working on a little something else with her too, started yesterday but got stressed and burnt out so took a lil break 😅)
Chat Blanc thoughts and spoilers
No, I don't believe this episode was a "if they know each others' identities it'll result in a bad timeline" thing. The actual thing that led to the bad timeline was Gabriel finding out Adrien is Chat Noir. Sure, it was a series of dominos knocking down which eventually led to that, but there's more to this.
We saw in Oblivio that even without their memories, Adrien and Marinette, or Chat Noir and Ladybug, would be both great crime-fighting partners and romantic partners. Their base personalities mesh well together. Here in Chat Blanc, we see that even with a one-sided reveal, they would *still* be happy as a couple, and there's also no indication that their crime-fighting shenanigans have gotten worse either. It's an absolute win in that way.
However... Gabriel found out that Adrien is Chat. If there was some way for Adrien and Marinette to reveal each others' secret identies to each other without risking anyone else knowing, I believe there's a way for the two of them to still be the endgame.
In fact, this felt like an instance where the reveal didn't go right which led to the bad timeline. Perhaps if Adrien didn't know Marinette is Ladybug before she knew that he's Cat Noir, things might have gone down a different path.
This means! The lovesquare reveal has to happen in one of the following ways:
Adrien finds out before Marinette, and tells her immediately that he knows while also revealing his own identity as Cat Noir
Marinette finds out before Adrien
They reveal their identities to each other at the same time
So yeah, all is not lost, lovesquare shippers!
Also no, I don't think the good-timeline Marinette knows that Adrien is Cat Noir. During one of her exchanges with Bunnyx, it seems that she thinks that because Adrien found out, he might have told someone who told someone else who told someone else and word eventually got to Cat Noir who Ladybug is.
This episode also really shows just how far Gabriel has gone. Perhaps at some point in the past he really did care more about his son. But in this episode, we saw, in the bad timeline, just how shitty he was with no regard for Adrien's wellbeing in order to achieve his own goals. In order:
He forced Marinette to break up with Adrien, not because they have a bad relationship but to use her negative feelings for his own villainous goals, nevermind Adrien's own feelings about any of this
He found out that Adrien is Cat Noir, and instead of being horrified at the notion that he's been fighting his son this whole time, he's *gleeful* at the prospect of using this information for his own purposes.
He emotionally destabilizes his son by revealing his own identity, but also, by *showing his son his comatose mother who everyone believed was dead*
He physically beat up his son... why?
He akumatized his son and forced his son to choose between his father or his partner
Anyways I don't know if it's just the bad timeline Gabriel that's that far gone, but I believe this is probably proof that there's little to no chance of redemption left for Gabriel.
Also shoutout to Rose for losing her shit over Marinette being so wishy-washy all the time lol
And to Alix/Bunnyx for being cool like, all the time
Also can I just say, I really loved the whole framing thing in the episode which showed Bunnyx looking through the timelines like they're VHS's, rewinding and skipping forward. I loved the back and forth as we see how certain parts of the timeline affects certain things, and Bunnys slowly piecing together how everything got to this point.
All in all a very good episode and I'm very happy with it, even if I understood little to no french!
