(Smashes in through the window) OW GLASS! Also, ONCE MORE I HAVE RETURNED!! WITH CHLOENETTE!! Sorry about the window...
Anyway, I thought I'd share my take on the Reverse world and Emonette in terms of Chloenette: Essentially, my thought is that Reverse!Marinette is a gang leader who took over the streets due to her parents neglecting her, and came to enjoy the fear and pain she inflicts on others. Reverse!Chloe, on the other hand, is the spoiled sweet and beloved darling of Paris who believes the best in everyone. They end up a couple due to Reverse!Chloe seeing Emonette as a wounded soul who just needs help and understanding, and Emonette falling for her HARD due to Reverse!Chloe being the first time EVER that anyone has been shown her genuine kindness. Sure, there are a little hiccups like Emonette using her criminal connections to beat up anyone who stands in the way of Chloe's desire to make the city a better place and people start thinking Chloe is deliberately ordering the attacks, but who cares, they love each other!
"I'm only refraining to smash everyone's faces because of my girlfriend. If she and I were to break up, I'd suggest you dig your own grave before I do."
That's what the small piece of paper read. Every gang leader in the city of Paris shuddered as the familiar handwriting left a fear only one person can instill.
If you've ever asked any members of the gangs occupying Paris, they'd beat you up before you can even finish. If you're unlucky. If you're lucky, they'd beat you up after you finish asking.
Of course, that was of the past. Nowadays, they've moved on to better ways. Such as beating up people but only after asking and considering the question. Old habits die hard.
Marinette Dupain-Cheng was not like most leaders and it's not just because she calls herself Shadybug. No, she was not like most leaders because unlike any gang leader you'd stumble upon because you're shit at directions, Marinette Dupain-Cheng had one thing they don't.
A girlfriend. That's right, suckers. A girlfriend.
And not just any girlfriend, she has THE girlfriend. The beloved darling of Paris and Mayor's daughter, face of every charity that's ever popped up in Paris and gives free pastries and helps people cross the street by sometimes carrying them bridal style if you asked.
Marinette Dupain-Cheng was dating Chloé Bourgeois and that was both surprising and horrifying.
Her gang members were widely amused and supportive, of course. Sometimes they can even be found helping in some charities and when asked, they shrug, point a thumb to a familiar looking blonde and say, "Just helping the boss's girl."
How the ended up dating? It depends on the news agency you follow, the story gets changed every few weeks. But the consistent part is because Chloé saved Marinette from something. Half of the population thinks it was from another gang, while the other thinks she saved her from the authorities.
They are all correct, but only half as well. Chloé actually saved Marinette from herself, both metamorphicaly and literally after she almost bled to death on a random alley.
From then on, the gang leader took it upon herself to watch over her savior, insisting it was to repay her and not because she was lesbian.
"Boss, you might be gay for her."
"You might just be fucking dead tomorrow too."
For everyone's sanity, they didn't oppose the couple. After all, why would they? Seriously, why would they.
Anyways, everything has been going fine. Until the small piece of paper came which made everyone, minus the ones non-gang, confused.
That is until they flipped the paper.
"I'm going to propose to my girlfriend this week and if any of you shitheads ever decide to have a fight, I will have you claw your way out of my hands until you are nothing but actual pieces of shit. Also, wish me luck or else."
Everyone was quiet, and for a moment Paris seemed to stop, then everything came undone.
"That's what we'll be if we don't follow her instructions, Dylan!"
