EDIT: my brother yelled at me (/j) and i remembered no one on Tumblr saw the context, so I labeled for clarity. Hugo is experiencing stage fright in his ballet recital </3
Needed a palette cleanser from working on Heart Attack (ml arena au) and was missing Chat's Cradle, so I took a little Dadrien request from a moot <33
first page was a sloppy attempt at both learning alcohol markers and trying it on stone paper, live and learn, but yeah it's just a photo instead of a scan so it's low res too

Nap time, she would do her best to tuck them (most to the teachers' amusement)
Her basically being a mom became a joke between them
She babies her class, more so after she becomes class president
She's not a flustered mess around Adrien and actually acts like a functioning human being around him (or acts like a mother)
When it’s cold, she carries sweaters in the size of the ones she KNOWS will forget theirs (she may sometimes forget hers but never forgets the other's)
She adores babysitting, even if the kids sometimes are little demons, she absolubtly loves it
When it’s time to get scores, she brings cookies and gives those who got 18/20 or more on their exams
Everyone is very jealous of Max and Adrien, who often get high scores in every exam and thus receive cookies every time
Kim and Alix compete a lot and the winner always immediately turns to Mari for praises
Either Adrienette or Lukanette
Adrienette because Adrien getting babied by Mari as Adrien and Chat and even more babied post-reveal and/or post-Hawkmoth
Lukanette because Luka acts like a dad sometimes and Mari acts like a mom so they will smoother the hell out of people
She usually fixes her classmates clothing and no matter how much they insist she doesn't allow them to pay
Her mothering people as Ladybug
After they're akumatized she asks if they're okay
She comforts children after they were akumatized
She coos at little August after they defeat Gigantitan and insists that she can carry him, no Chat, don't take him away from me
She assures Mr.Ramier that it's okay and that he shouldn't blame himself for getting akumatized too much
She comforts people and always lets them know that feeling is okay
When it's someone's birthday, she will make little cute cakes as gifts that everyone loves
She sometimes gets baby fever, which makes her incredibly moody
When after a baby was akumatized while she was feeling baby fever she burst into tears while holding them
Marinette acts like a proud mother A LOT
She has a camera full of pictures of her friends
If the Adrientette is platonic instead of romantic, then Adrien is like, this is my maman now, no, I'm not replacing mom, but Mari is my maman now.
Gabriel was very confused when one day Adrien started babbling something about a mom (when he finally showed for dinner, that is)
Kagami is very confused when Marinette goes mother hen on her for the first time
"what is happening?" She will whisper to Adrien from where she is leaning her head on Mari's shoulder after fencing practice (Adrien is lying on her lap)
She adopts her friends with parental issues
"I'M ADOPTING THIS SAD CHILD!"
The class introducing her to others like "This is my mom"
She babies Marc
She often tells him "Do as I say, not as I do" because they're both anxious beans
She absolutley ships Marc and Nath when she notices they both have crushes in each other and wingmans for either of them
Luka recognizes Marinette from those times Juleka mumbles about her and is happy to meet the girl who babies his sister almost as much as he does
She babies the kwami after she becomes guardian
She makes them their favorite snacks
Makes them tiny accessories
Cuddle sessions with all of them and they have turns to sleep with her
They don't call her Master, most call her Mari or Marinette and some even jokingly call her maman from time to time
Some of them have gone through bad holders like Nooroo and Duusu and although it may have been years ago she still comforts them about it
Plagg is one of those who had many abusive holders in the past and Mari smoothers the hell out of Plagg when she sees him (he eats it all up like a stinky pice of camembert)
Plagg is one of those who teasignly calls her maman
She is conflicted on who to give the shovel talk when Alya and Nino start dating because Alya is her BFF but Nino is her childhood friend (she gives it to both of them at the end)
When Lila comes around, the class is actually smart (Marinette raised them better than that)
It starts when it weirds them out when Marinette doesn't baby Lila, sure, Lila may be new, but new classmates have always been mothered by Mari if at least a tiny bit
They start investigating
They do research instead of believing their every word
They fact check
They ask for evidence about the things she has made
They don't really believe what she spills about Mari because it just does not sound like her
You know how Adrien tells Mari about the high road? Here he mentions it but Mari immediately tells him that's wrong and explains why
She learns that children are stupid, and she's not talking about the kids she babysits, she's talking about her classmates
"ALYA STOP GOING AFTER DANGEROUS AKUMAS"
"Alix, no- are you really asking why can't you skate down the stairs?"
"KIM GET DOWN HERE! YOU'LL GET HURT! HOW DID YOU EVEN GET UP THE CEILING LIGHTS?! I DONT CARE IF IT WAS A DARE"
"Nath, sweetie, please go home to sleep, you can finish this drawing tomorrow"
"IF YOU DIE AGAIN CHAT NOIR, I'M GOING TO FREAKING MURDER YOU"
She makes pride month accessories for her LGBTTQ+ friends
Mari is very protective of her classmates
More so with:
Adrien, regardless of if it's platonic or romantic, she is very protective of him, she gives him snacks because he doesn't eat enough, she often takes him away from Lila and Chloe if they're hurting him, comforts him about things at home
Chat Noir, she is protective of him as both Mari and Ladybug, as LB, they hold each other close after hard battles if they're free, she hates watching him die in battles, so she too tries to protect him, and she sometimes brings him croissants for after patrol because he looks exhausted and as if he were to pass out, as Mari she feeds him too, he sometimes doesn't eat enough or skips meals (he feels too lonely eating) so they have dinner or breakfast together, she invites him into her room for cuddling, and pets him as both LB and Mari
Rose, in this she already knew about Rose being sick and mother hens her a bit more than the others, it's not too obvious, but she worries a lot about her, she or Juleka are usually the ones that take her to the nurse's office ans they both visit her at the hospital
Nathaniel and Juleka, the two of them are extremely anxious and have gone through a lot by Chloé as years went by just like her, she is always encouraging them and supporting them
Nino and Kim, they have been babyed by her the longest and so she grew protective of them as time went by
Ivan, people are quick to judge him and he had been bullied a lot for his size, she hates it when people are rude at him for no reason or blame him for his looks or the way he seems to act (he may seem rough but he is actually a sweetheart)
MARI BABYING NOOROO AND DUUSU POST-HAWKMOTH
She gives them their favorite food
Lots of cuddles
She assures them they can just call her Mari or Marinette and don't need to call her Master and jokingly tells them that they can even call her maman if they want
They call her maman
She has pet names for her classmates and some she uses in general for everyone
Doesn't matter if it's platonic or romantic, Luka is the one that babies Marinette and will do it often
At first Mari is confused because she usually is the one doing the babying and is this what it feels like???
She likes spending time at the Liberty with Luka because they often just snuggle while Luka strums his guitar
Marinette is very touchy, Luka discovered, and she loves cuddling
He makes sure she eats enough and stays hydrated when she's going through a inspirational/creative time where designing is one of her top priorities
He will often call her pet names like my melody, sweetness, baby, sweetheart, honey and sometimes more
When Luka meets Marinette it's almost all like canon except when he calls her "Ma-Ma-Marinette" she just giggles because of how much it sounds like Mama Marinette
