so i read a lot of fanfiction and i constantly lose the ones i love :’) so i decided to compile them all onto one post for my convenience and maybe yours too!
most of these are probably pretty well known but i thought i’d put them here anyways
- Rainy Days by @thelastpilot
“A storm rolls through Paris and refuses to let up, so when a water fearing cat is rescued by the kind efforts of his designing classmate he starts to pay a little closer attention to someone he should have always known better.”
this fic is my go to comfort fic, soooooooo much adrienette fluff and aksaksidhwishis it’s so good i love it, it’s a slow burn friends to lovers and it ends perfectly. just read it.
- Chat Noir's White French Man Hit List for Feminist Purposes by @peachcitt
‘“Yeah, white French guys suck,” Ladybug had relented, but she could be very stubborn when she set her mind to it, which she did, quite often. She flicked the little golden bell that hung from the neck of his black leather suit and said, “but you don’t.”
“That’s very nice of you to say,” Chat had said, “however Chat Noir’s White French Man Hit List for Feminist Purposes starts with me.”
“Did you just refer to yourself in third person?” Ladybug had asked.
adrien agreste who is also chat noir absolutely chugs his respect women juice’
this one is SO FUNNY i love it so much and the ending is so pure and happy but at the same time it’s low key emotional. you just have to read it
- Smoulder by @midnightstarlightwrites
“Marinette traced her fingers down the smooth lines of the magazine, a blush creeping to her face. It wasn’t just his toned, muscular body that set her aflame, although that was certainly a bonus. It was his eyes. The way his body appeared, languid like a summers day. His body said relax but his eyes said devour. From the pages of the advertisement, Adrien smouldered in a way that he’d never done during any of his other numerous photographs, and yet she was struck with a familiarity that made her skin tingle, made her swallow with sudden and surprising nervousness. She was sure she’d seen that expression somewhere before. A pair of green eyes looking at her like that, with an unknown question in his hungry gaze. She’d seen that smoulder before.
In which Adrien loses a bet and becomes an underwear model, Marinette loses her mind, and the whole fiasco starts a fire which might lead to the pair discovering their identities.”
okay this one is one of the oldies but goodies and i just recently re-read it and it’s honestly one of my absolute favorite fan fictions ever. it’s got everything and i could not recommend a fanfiction more. don’t start reading this unless you’re prepared to be on your phone for 12 hours a time.
- Sewing Sentiments by @frostedpuffs
“Fed up with her miserable job at a fabric store, Marinette decides that it's finally time to quit and move on...until she's tasked with training a new employee whose golden hair and gorgeous green eyes have her feeling a certain way that isn't strictly platonic. Torn between hating her job and loving being in Adrien's presence, Marinette sticks by his side every step of the way, finding herself enjoying her new co-worker's company far more than she had ever expected.
But there's something about him she can't quite place—a certain sadness in his eyes that, despite only knowing him for a short time, causes Marinette to wonder about his past and what exactly he's running from...even if she wants nothing more than for him to be happy.”
GOSH this one is my new obsession. it’s a coworkers au and it’s so fluffy and cute already and so far updates have been super close together. she also draws and her art is amazing so this is definitely worth checking out
-Discordant Sonata by @edendaphne
“Ladybug… I… What choice do I have? Hawkmoth, he’s ruthless and determined. And he’s… he’s not just my boss. He’s family. If I defied him, what would I do? Where would I go? He’d take my miraculous away if I even tried. I don’t have a choice.”
aged up enemies to partners au, what more could you ask for?? it’s a perfect mix of angst and comfort and fluff and it’a WONDERFUL. chat and hawkmoth have worked together since the beginning and you just have to read it. she also has amazing art for it, so definitely check her out!!
- when you’re near by @buggachat
“When Ladybug and Chat Noir were together, dancing across rooftops and kissing under the moonlit sky, Ladybug loved her boyfriend. But when the masks fell and all that was left was Marinette, she hated her boyfriend. She hated the lonesome afternoons, the third wheeling, the way his name wasn't in her contacts...
She knows their identities are secret for a reason, and she tells herself she'd do anything to protect that— but when Marinette hears Chat Noir's voice coming from the boy sitting behind her in a coffee shop, she can't help but wonder if it's really worth not having him in her life.”
aged up au where adrien never went to school and only knows chloe. ladynoir are dating but adrien and marinette don’t know each other. it’s perfectly adorable and i love marinette in it so much. (and i also drew fanart of it back in 2020 :) any of buggachats writings are amazing, but this one is one of my top favorites!
- a hypothesis, an experiment, and a coincidence by @peachcitt
“I’m following,” Adrien says, to show that he’s following.
“We do the experiment,” Marinette repeats, “and if it works and we fall in love, then maybe I’ll believe love is real because I’ll be in love, and people who are in love always think love is real.”
“Naturally,” Adrien says.
“But if we don’t fall in love, then love is chemicals.”
adrien and marinette perform a scientific experiment to discover if love is real. the experiment comprises of two participants: adrien agreste and marinette dupain-cheng, and both participants are, in fact, quite drunk”
i looovveeee every fic peach writes so naturally i have to include this one. it’s absolute comedic gold and written so well. adorable post reveal pre relationship fic <33
- seven is my lucky number by @miabrown007
““Dating you, platonically, and moving in with you, platonically, that’s definitely optimal! No problem at all!” Chat Noir said to Ladybug, and realistically, it should have been true. He was having a crush on Marinette for the longest time.
aka post-reveal pre-relationship roommates. but is it really pre-relationship if they are fake-dating?”
okay the description says it all; prpr AND fake dating AND ROOMATES. literally read all of it in one sitting and i am in love with this fic. it’s absolutely adorable and makes you wanna smack them at the same time. i cannot wait to read the last chapter
