This interaction. It speaks volumes. I’ve been thinking about this all day.

Ladybug is so in disbelief and denial with CN not having a childhood dream.

Her initial reaction when he refuses to tell her is her interpreting his sadness as embarrassment. 

When he eventually does tell her rather heavily, she brushes it off and instead assumes what he wanted to be.

“You probably wanted to be a magician or fireman.”

It’s rather interesting how she says those particular jobs: as one of them involves playfulness whilst the other involves courage and heroism. Her assumptions about his childhood dream gives us insight to how LB assumes he is behind the mask. Since he seems so goofy, cheerful and bold as CN, that’s the side of him that she’s become used to, and she knows best. She can’t imagine any other side to him because that’s what he portrays. So she assumes his life is as colourful outside the mask as he is wearing it. 

When he tells her again that he really didn’t have one, she’s so in denial that she doesn’t believe it again. She simply says “you must have forgotten”. Because in her eyes, someone as happy-go-lucky as him, must’ve had wild childhood dreams. And of course, her assumptions about his dreams involve heroism, because she knows he has a big heart.

But she can’t see the truth here. She can’t see the sadness behind his words. Or in his eyes. Because she’s not really looking for it. She’s not expecting it. (And also she’s fighting a supervillain).

And it’s not really her fault. It’s not his either. He’s not good with opening up about his vulnerabilities. He portrays the part of himself that he wants her to say, wants to be. And she, she can’t pierce deeper than what she sees due to all the masks, due to all the secrets.

She can’t see that there are things about their partnership that are hurting him - especially this season.

Not only because she’s busy keeping secrets because she’s worried about Chat Blanc and all the horrendous possibilities behind it. But because she can’t read deeper into the boy behind the mask. He’s too good at hiding his vulnerabilities and she’s so used to the image he portrays, the bold, humorous and big-hearted image. And she didn’t really think that this would hurt him. She’s too focused on making sure everything’s alright objectively that she can’t see he feels left out.

There’s so much miscommunication between them. One of them has so many secrets, so many responsibilities, and is trying to avoid bad situations that she’s fooled by the persona her partner displays, unable to acknowledge what’s hurting him. The other is too good at wearing facades, too good at hiding his vulnerabilities and is bad at opening up about his pain.

what’s going on here

like???

their eyes are obviously different colors????

animation/studio mistake. a different team made the art, and the animation team somehow switched the eye colors. a simple miscommunication error!

babies don’t see colors right. in the early months of life, babies can mess up/switch around colors. adrien’s memory is just flawed because he was a baby!

wishmaker was stretching. adrien obviously didn’t remember, and wishmaker’s influence on him caused the already faded memory to distort. it’s the akuma’s fault!

adrien is a sentimonster. see below.

@zivazivc’s pinocchio au is canon. the switching/fading eye colors is almost exactly like the au in which prolonged peacock miraculous use caused emilie’s life energy to drain. zivazivc is a prophet!

the agreste family has already made a wish using the miraculous. somehow, the agrestes managed to make a wish, but that wish caused emilie to slip into a coma, and the switching eye colors may be proof of that. adrien was doomed from the start!

body switching part 1. it’s actually emilie in gabriel’s body, and the real gabriel agreste is in a coma in emilie agreste’s body. eyes are the window to the soul!

body switching 2 electric boogaloo. somewhere along the line, amelie graham de vanily and emilie agreste switched places, perhaps multiple times. emilie is the one that actually has blue eyes, félix’s dead father is the man with green eyes, and amelie is working behind the scenes on something big. the agreste/graham de vanily family is jacked up for reals!

with all the craziness happening in this show lately, i made a handy dandy list of what information each character has/doesn't have as of "Wishmaker" (S4 Ep18)
