Aaron
At the beginning, it quite frustrates him. Not because he hates your voice, he quite likes the sound of it actually – but it broke his peaceful, lonely moments. However, he didn’t shut you up or anything similar, he never leaves when you start talking about anything, no matter what it is.
He made some jokes at first, such as “do you even breathe between sentences??” so you could genuinely have some time to catch a breath.
He started liking the routine though. He even caught himself learning some of the tiniest details of your stories or interests: your childhood memories, your deepest passions, which weather you hate, what kind of food do you like…
Aaron actually uses this information about you to gift you subtle things. Maybe your favorite food, or maybe something comforting that could remind you of your childhood.
So basically, 1st talkative and listener dynamic.
By the time the relationship starts, he has already gotten used to make a part of his routine to simply listen to your rantings. And it is one of the main reasons why he loves you, because the sound of your voice along with so many interesting things makes you cute.
This would also achieve that Aaron talks more and opens up to you about his own stories.
Whenever you’re more quiet than usual, he genuinely gets worried and checks on you constantly.
Beliath
He has always found this amusing. The moment he saw that you wouldn’t stop talking, he’d be actively asking you questions or comments so you can bring up more stuff to talk about.
He thought you were cute but too naive by sharing so many stuff with someone you just met.
Sometimes, he would try to tease you by interrupting you, trying to distract you constantly. He’d approach more than he should to you, he could stare at you with his intense emerald eyes, he could even caress your arm teasingly… and simply with the intention of seeing you stutter and lose track on your speech.
Late night talks! Well, actually it would be morning talks since they live during the night – but you get me! Late “night” talks as you both are in bed, staring at the ceiling and cuddling. You’d see him so relaxed that he’d even open his heart to reveal things about him as well.
Talk without filters with him, he loves it.
He knows he can be vulnerable with you, even if it takes him a while to accept it himself.
Beliath would certainly make references to any story you explained him, mainly the funny and ridiculous ones. Obviously he wouldn’t make any reference about any sad story you’ve told him – and if he accidentally offends you, he’d apologize at the moment.
Loves when you get talkative in front of others as well, but deeply hopes that you only share the most personal ones with him.
Raphael
He listens to you as if every single word was important, and would actively listen to you. It might seem contradictory by the simple fact that he is almost always immersed on the quietness of the library, but the reality is that he enjoys when others remember that he can be a good listener.
He nods, smiles when you get excited about stuff or comforts you by holding your hand when you get more sensitive.
Once you apologized to him for talking too much, and his main reaction was a quick “no, no! Please, keep talking. It’s not annoying at all.” And he means it.
Your voice calms him down. It is quite better to hear anyone’s voice rather than his when he is alone because his thoughts would ruin his day and you make it better by just being there. His anxiety leaves, his negative thoughts are silenced and he focus on you.
Your conversations can lead to have deep talks with him, as he’d make questions to stimulate you to keep talking. Emotionally, your relationship is truly intimate.
He recognizes your tones: when you’re happy or excited, when you’re mad, when you’re sad. And that helps him to know how to act about certain situations.
And sometimes… you run out of topics to talk about, or you simply have no energy to talk that much. Raphael gets worried about you, naturally. But he’d invite you to enjoy he quietness of the library and simply enjoy his embrace or company. He might even be the one talking about anything interesting he has read lately if you wish to clear your mind from any negative thoughts.
You both love how the emotional intimacy makes your connection stronger.
Vladimir
This is quite a big contrast to him. Unlike Aaron, he used to voice his annoyance at the beginning. He crossed his arms as you kept talking, not interrupting you, but hoping to take advantage of any slight moment of silence to voice his irritation.
Obviously the first time he reacted this wrongly to you was a sign to stop. And Vladimir felt something strange about it the first days. He saw you talking too much to others and being awkwardly quiet when he was around, and that woke up an inner guilt on him.
He had to make a big effort to get close to you and apologize for being that rude.
Vladimir used to make efforts to be patient whenever you talked. But with time he realized that, just as Raphael felt, listening to you was like a great way to silence his negative thoughts. And this man truly needs to shut his brain from being so negative for once, so you were a great help.
He starts enjoying the constant ranting. Vladimir wouldn’t actively participate but would subtly react to your stories: maybe smiling a little at your excitement towards some topic, maybe softening his eyes when you share something personal with him, maybe frowning when something bad has happened to you.
As he works on taking care of his flowers, you’d be talking to him non-stop and he definitely adores that. It becomes a part of the routine and would miss it if you weren’t there – he truly does miss you when you aren’t there.
During his reading time, you also share the quietness with him. Vladimir also enjoys to see you rest, enjoy of the silence and share the blanket with him under which he reads.
Ethan
I hope you know that he won’t be nice at the beginning. While Vladimir was quite respectful to make you shut up, he is not. Definitely not. He isn’t patient and gets easily overstimulated and irritated, so the moment he saw you talked non-stop he spitted “don’t you ever get tired of talking this much?” with a rude tone.
He saw that it was common for you to talk that much, since you did it with everybody else. And one day in which he needed peace and to rest his mind, he decided to spend time with Beliath. You joined them to talk mainly with Beliath, and it was strange that Ethan didn’t interrupt you or anything as usual. That day he decided to listen to you, to give you a chance. And he got truly immersed on your words.
That day allowed him to be more opened to talk to you instead of dodging you whenever you approached. He tried to be more patient and less rude – it was an unique trait of your personality that he found interesting (he liked it but wouldn’t confess it).
It’s usual for him to tease you whenever you just talk and talk and talk. And even if he’s an asshole, he still pays attention to your words and remembers details about your stories.
When you both start dating, he makes sure you know that your words are important and he cares about them. Actually, he’d have you cuddling with him whenever you open up about anything (personal or not) so it can feel intimate.
More than once he has taken both of your hands on his and has kissed them. Then he says “thanks for trusting me enough to tell me all of this”.
Ivan
He can get very talkative as well, so this isn’t a problem for him. He actually adores it! It’s truly cute for him that you easily get excited with your passions to rant about them non-stop, or that you’ve got many topics to talk about.
The bad thing is… he might dissociate every now and then whenever you’ve been talking too much because he has the attention span of a kid sometimes. So get ready to re-explain something twice or three times, or to get asked the most obvious and stupid questions. He might apologize for this because he doesn’t want you to think that he doesn’t care, because he actually cares!
If you both share the same interest, it would turn into an active dialogue instead of a monologue. He’d talk just as much as you, and you both might even interrupt each other from the many things you’ve gotta say.
There might be times in which it is your turn to be the listener of this man because he will get talkative as well.
More than once, you’ve been awake until late hours and Vladimir, Ethan or Aaron had to knock at your door to make you both shut up because you were raising your voices too much from the excitement.
You might see him falling in love even more with you when you just talk, because you can see his eyes melt as he listens to you. He might stare, to the point in which you can easily tease him for staring that long at you.

do you think gabriel was going to put adrien in a conservatorship if he lived long enough for adrien to become an adult.
in-universe the dodged arc of adrien being painted as mentally unfit to care for himself so that gabriel could continue to control every aspect of his life would've been craaaazy
why did he wait until he was back in uniform to question his Shadybug
yes he made some noises but
he didn't speak
Shadybug didn't even expect him to say anything, she was watching him and got her answers from his reactions or lack thereof
i am ALSO once again suggesting that perhaps civilian adrien had never been able to speak
perhaps only emilie had his rings (assuming he was still a Senti) and she (hopefully) accidentally told him to be quiet before she died and then wearing Plagg's ring lets him go around it??
perhaps the motherfucker in charge (the Supreme) removed his speech somehow???
we just dont know, theres so many options
even just a simple, he's selectively mute and only feels able to speak when he's not himself
Rewriting Lila's backstory and motives for my rewrite
Not sure if I'll add this to my Miraculous rewrite master thread, since that thing is pretty outdated by now (same goes for my hc post about Marinette hosting fashion shows). But I've been working on rewriting Lila's backstory for awhile, and I've made a really fun breakthrough that I think is way better than her show-counterparts
TLDR; it's because her family heirloom was "stolen" by Ladybug
To start things off with the Order of the Guardians (it will become important later), my rewrite still includes Mages in the plot, who were still given magic by Gimmie in order to create the Miraculous - they can still naturally read Miraculous texts like Grimoires, whereas Guardians can only read them after performing their initiation spell (this was a feature from my old miraculous rewrite posts). Mages and Guardians coexisted in the Order for a long time, but drastically fell in numbers after Fu destroyed the temple as Pavo
He moved to Paris before Germany's occupation, falling in love with Marianne Lenoir. He wanted the two of them to flee to London together when the war broke out, but gave her the Butterfly miraculous when she wanted to stay and fight. He returned after 1945 just in time to learn about Marianne's engagement to Johnny Grassette, and decided to run off without getting back the Miraculous. At some point in the future, the Fox was stolen from him by a young girl, not knowing it's powers originally, but who would start using it to steal food
This woman was the biological mother of Lila and Mamon, who were later turned to the foster system following their mothers arrest. Because she was just a baby, Mamon was adopted by Nadja Chamack and separated from her older sister, who constantly bounced between homes afterwards (she also briefly shared a home with Nino and Chris Lahiffe, who are also former foster kids in my rewrite). This is the reason why Lila lies so often, it's a coping mechanism to help assimilate into a new family
When Gabriel discovered a way to unfiy different miraculous powers together, creating akumas with the Butterfly and damaged Peacock - Lila decided to help Monarch by turning into Volpina to learn more about the Miraculous and her heritage as a Mage; given her history as a problem child, and especially after Ladybug humiliated her in public, she felt more connected to Monarch. However because she wasn't a strong fighter, she was quickly overwhelmed when Ladybug and Chat confronted her, who then seized the Fox Miraculous
To clarify: In this rewrite, Lila has not only been separated from her estranged mother, but from her younger sister as well, and is constantly changing homes because nobody wants to raise a troubled teen. Then from her perspective, the only reminder she had of her actual family (the Fox Miraculous that was passed down to her, if that wasn't obvious) was stolen by the supposed heroes of Paris, who also publicly humiliated her. And if that wasn't bad enough, they then just end up.. giving her necklace to somebody else.. permanently. Lila now feels the heroes have a personal vendetta against her, who are helping everyone BUT her, all the while Monarch was the only one helping her learn about the Miraculous and her powers as a Mage, which of course was taken from her too
Of course, Gabriel was only helping Lila because she had the Fox Miraculous, but to her, the heroes had not only taken away her possessions, but also the one lead she had in fixing her broken family and learning about her heritage. Long story short, she fvckin HATES them
Note: In this rewrite, Lila does not have multiple fake identities, Lila Rossi is her actual civilian name. She does however still become the next supervillain, just at the end of Season 3 when Gabriel is arrested for his crimes. She's able to fix the Peacock Miraculous by herself, and becomes this au's version of Mayura (the Butterfly was successfully returned to Master Fu, who going forward uses it permanently).
At the end of Season 5, Lila is permanently adopted by Fu and is able to learn more about the Miraculous, she makes amends with; Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Sabrina (she and Nino were always cool), and regularly visits Mamon and Nadja! 😁😁
