Ladybug is unsure whether accompanying Adrien to a gala as his not-date is the best or worst thing that has ever happened to her. But when their table mates turn out to be none other than her long time friends Alya and Nino and with Adrien acting weirder and weirder she finds herself with bigger worries than an unrequited crush.
not my fic. just an amazing one everyone should read.
LAST UPDATED: JULY 26, 2020
“Are you sleeping, Chaton?”
The sun has begun to set, its fiery light turning his hair into spun gold under her fingers. She closes her eyes against the rays caressing her face and realises that she has begun to hum along with his purring.
A content sigh escapes her lips. She could sit like this till dawn, her kitty at her side, the noise of the city continuously humming beneath them. Still, she can’t keep him here. His parents are bound to notice his absence at one point and the last thing she wants is to get him into trouble at home.
It seems… difficult enough there. It’s like a cloud has pushed in front of the sun, the promise of the evening chill making her shiver for the first time.
Not that he openly complains about his home life. But there are signs that have her worried, signs that make it even harder to interrupt his soft purring now as he softly nudges his head against her caressing hand.
He looks so peaceful. So vulnerable. Ladybug can’t help but wonder when she has last seen him so completely at ease.

What do you usually focus on as a writer? What do you consider your strengths?
I tend to use imagery a lot, especially to convey emotion and atmosphere which are really important to me and I think I do it quite well. Apart from that I lay focus on characterisation, getting the characters to feel as close to the image we have of them and as real as possible, including getting their voice right. Generally, depending on the overall tone of the fic, I like my writing to be humorous at least and funny at best.
What are your favorite fic tropes?
Ah yes tropes, the backbone of every fic XD I am a huge fan of mutual pining, as I do love myself a little (or a little more than a little) angst. I also love banter, sarcastic flirting that kind of thing, so that ties in there pretty nicely. The "well what could go wrong?" a million things go wrong immediately is a classic too. One of my favourite things is coming up with aus (is that a trope?), but that doesn't mean I don't love writing canon of course!
Which ML characters and ships are your favorite?
Both in and out of costume, I love Marinette and Adrien, they're both well rounded characters and honestly just good sweet kids not to mention quite funny too. For similar reasons I have an enormous soft spot for Nino and Alya and the four of them as a group of friends is just *chef kiss*. I also find Plagg, Chloe, Kagami and Alix (especially later in her role as Bunnix) to be very interesting personalities. Shipwise the lovesquare's a fave, obviously, with a slight preference for Ladrien or Ladynoir, as well as DJwifi. But I adore Adrino, Alyanette and Marigami as well.
What do you love most about Miraculous Ladybug?
Ugh so much. It's great how we get to see so different dynamics between different characters depending on who's wearing a mask at the moment, especially in the lovesquare. That's what pulled me in originally, I simply love dramatic irony with every fibre of my being. The whole concept behind akumas is also great, how they themselves are actually more victims than villains, who have their own basic human emotions turned against them. Not to mention they can be pretty creative in their execution.
What kind of requests would you be most interested in receiving?
I'd love to write some lighthearted, mundane fluff about one of the (friend-)ships I like. A humorous fic sounds just as lovely or something more "serious", maybe character-centric. Some nice angst with a (semi) happy ending.
