MiracuLog

Since the Marinette Salt Prompt blog isn't gonna be run anymore, I decided to make this sideblog where I share the Marinette Salt prompts I submitted and any future ones!!

The name of this blog actually comes from one of the prompts I submitted: Selfish Wishing, iirc. It's the name of the blog Adrien and Felix run together.

My inbox is open!! Feel free to send in prompts, fics, or ask about prompts I've written. :3

RULES for Prompts and Fics:

(i also got carried away with writing the set up, and more hints of Aro! Adrien and Lithromantic! Rook, oops-)

====

Upon meeting the new student Rook was estatic to learn that they shared a common tongue. Naturally, there were divergences in each other's words, phrases and more, but Adrien was quick to pick up on the differences between the two. To learn something new of this student who didn't posses magic had Rook follow his underclassman around, learning about his habits and how to accomodate for them. Rook talked to Vil about Adrien whenever they met, gushing about the little cat he had grown so fond of.

"You sound really proud of him," Vil chuckled softly.

"Of course!" Rook shouted, continuing his rambled about Adrien.

When she appeared just after winter break, Rook had his worries when Adrien talked about her. Marinette Dupain-Cheng, a girl who shared the same class as Adrien in their old world. He didn't seem to know her well at all, yet still claimed that they were friends, albeit very hesitantly and with a scratch behind his neck.

"Do you not like her, Le Chat du Soleil?" Rook asked.

Adrien looked away, fiddling with his ring as a nervous tick, deep in thought before shrugging.

"She's nice, I guess..." He kicked the ground. "I don't know a lot about her... But, ya'know... She's the only thing I really have from my old world..."

Rook nodded, changing the subject and asking about his potionology class, Adrien lit up and began to ramble.

----

"Another one?" Rook asked.

Vil nodded, rubbing his temples, "this is the fourth time that this has happened, and it's only this week! Last week it was 10. Before that it had been 5."

Rook frowned.

The increase of Pomfiore students getting harrassed had increased significantly. No one could track down who it was, and those that had direct confrontations with the person were too petrafied to even say the name or describe them. From what Rook had been told, this person was intimidating the students for simply talking to Adrien and forcing them into silence and never talking to him again.

Rook had seen a few confessions from the love-struck boys of Night Raven, confessing to the young ex-model only to be politley turned down. Adrien seemed flattered by these confessions, but he never accepted them, instead offering the olive branch of friendship to them.

He didn't seem interested in romance, never talking about having someone on his mind, and always talking about the small group of frist years he's become close to. No one in Night Raven seemed to hold a grudge against these students, there was nothing in common with any of them.

Looking closer at the notes and letters, Rook frowned, he had his suspicions. He knew in his gut that it could only be one person. The stupidly lovesick look in their eyes and the anger that permiated around them when things didn't go there way.

Only two months in, and they were causing problems.

"Fear not, Roi du Poison," Rook gave his housewarden his ever charming smile. "I will take care of this."

----

Rook took to following Marinette around when he could. Something itched in the back of his mind, he had sensed the same thing years ago. Primal rage and protectiveness that seemed to be so deep-seeded into someone. He had experienced that before, Rook had found himself being obssesive and curious by nature, only to be focused on people that he found endlessly interesting.

Marinette was not interesting.

Not in the way Rook liked.

She followed Adrien around, mumbling under her breath about protecting him. He finds a detailed schedule of everything Adrien does in a week, then two, then three until it stops at about four years later. Rook takes the book, hiding it away as evidence. There had to be more to her that she was hiding.

Marinette would rant to herself, proclaiming that Adrien would fall for her when they get back home, that they'll get married and have kids. She danced around giggling and blushing, only to turn to silence upon seeing Adrien with anyone that showed any romantic interest.

(He watched as those that were merely friends with Adrien, weren't safe from her wrath either)

"You want me to record her?" Cater asked, looking midly intersted.

"Would that be too much, Monsieur Magicam?" Rook asked, keeping his normal smile.

Cater smiled, a devious grin that very few had seen. "Not at all, I've been meaning to get some dirt on the girl!"

Rook was shocked, and tilted his head. "Oh? What did she do to encure your wrath?"

"She managed to dump garbage onto Deuce," Cater ran his fingers through his hair, "he was already stressed about his grades, and Marinette only made it worse."

"... I've never seen him so upset before..." Rook let Cater mutter to himself.

He simply smiled, "I see. Do you know when, where and what time it happened?"

Cater looked at Rook, before that smile returned to his face.

"Of course, what kind of studet would I be if I didn't keep tabs of my underclassman?"

----

"Monsieur Doll!" Rook decended from the ceiling of Idia's room, ignoring the dorm leaders horrified shrieks.

Ortho turned around and tilted his head, "hey Rook! How can I help you?"

"I need a small tiny favor on behalf of Le Chat du Soleil," Rook pressed a finger to his lips, his smile growing wider.

The android-doll seemed intersted, a blaze in his eyes and one that clearly looked ready for some retribution.

"What do you need me to do?" Ortho ignored his older brother's confused stammers.

Rook's smile grew wider, filling Ortho in on what to do when he was with Adrien or any of their friends.

"Record everything you can, even if it seems mundane."

He needed everything he can on Marinette and her actions against other students.

----

"Have you had anyone you fancy in the past, Le Chat du Soleil?" Rook asked, it was nearing Valentines day, so he figured he could ask Adrien. (An innocent question on the surface, but Rook had been digging)

Adrien shrugged. "Not really, it's never something I gave attention to."

"Ah, I understand what you mean." Rook nodded.

His underclassman looked interested, "really?"

"Yes, yes! I've found that I love, Roi du Poison. He is my everything and I wish to be by his side for all of eternity." Rook swooned, he smiled as Adrien laughed a little.

"Why don't you tell him?"

"Not possible," Rook shook his head, "as beautiful as he is, for my love to be reciprocated would bring my feelings for him to be nonexistant. It would distress me greatly for something like that to happen."

Adrien stopped walking, causing Rook to look back at the younger boy.

"Le Chat du Soleil?" Rook asked.

"So," Adrien thought about his next words carefully. (Rook could see the familiar figure of Marinette just a few spaces away from them (she could hear them)) "What if you've... Never felt romantic feelings before? Like, ever? Would that be okay?"

His voice grew quieter as he dragged it out, shoulders hunching in on themselves making Adrien look smaller than he was. Eyes drawn to everything but Rook and clearly uncomfortable. As if saying that would manifest into something terrible to come, that he would be rejected and scrutinized.

Rook had felt the same for so long before, how he felt wrong for feeling so strongly about someone only to be disintrested in them when they confessed to him. He was seen as a coward, a fraud and most hurtful of all: a monster. Leading someone on only to reject them. Rook moved forward, careful as he gently placed his hands on Adrien's shoulders.

He looked up, eyes wide and mouth pulled into a straight line.

"That is completely fine," Rook smiled, "you are not less of a person for not loving someone like that. It is normal to feel that way, it is something to be proud of."

Adrien's eyes filled with tears, he held back a sob, quickly pulling Rook into a hug. He returned it, looking over at Marinette.

She stumbled back, looking shocked that Rook had seen her.

He frowned, gently combing his fingers through Adrien's hair, not breaking eye contact until Marinette hurried off, face flush and a grimace on her face.

----

Vil was furious.

Epel had taken Adrien to his dorm room just as Vil had returned from a photoshoot. The young boy looked shaken up, horrified as he held Grim tightly and Epel ushered him into the dorm, both whispering words of comfort. Not even ten mintues pass before Deuce, Ace, Jack, Ortho and Sebek barge into Pomfiore, carrying multiple blankets, pillows and snacks, and making a b-line towards Epel's room.

Vil pressed his ear against the door.

"... I-I explained I didn't like her... Door was blocked... Te-terrified and I couldn't breathe..."

He moved away, already knowing what had happened. The pieces had been there since she arrived, her blushing and stuttering around him. How multiple students who were close to Adrien had started to get harmed, physically and emotionally. He didn't do anything, Vil clenched his fists heading off to talk to Crowley.

Rook passed him.

"Huh- Rook!" Vil called after.

The hunter ignored him, heading towards Epel's room.

"Rook!" Vil shouted, hurrying over as his vice-warden gave a firm three knocks on the door.

"What are you-"

Ortho opened the door, stepping out and closing it behind him.

Rook smiled, "I apologize for the intrusion, Monsieur Doll. I believe you have something for me?"

"Yup!" Ortho pulled a small flashdrive from his wrist, handing it to Rook. "I edited it and made sure to capture everything that happened, and even made sure to highlight certain parts."

"Wonderful! Thank you greatly, Monsieur Doll." Rook patted Ortho on the shoulder.

The young android-doll grinned before stepping back into the room.

Vil watched as Rook's smille fell, a look he's only seen very few times.

"How long have you been-"

"Months." Rook answered.

Vil kept pace with his vice-warden, not daring to question, because he knew Rook was dedicated to those he was close with. He had seen how Rook smiled, teased and helped Adrien in adjusting to Twisted Wonderland and Night Raven College. The smile on his face was wide, full of affection for the younger student, and one of deep-seeded primal protection.

They had heard from Adrien about his life before, the casual and dissmissive nature of his father and friends. How he seemed to slowly realize who Marinette truly was as she followed him around and proclaimed acts of protection he didn't need. Her distrust of the school and those close to Adrien leeked into his mind, looking over his shoulder and tensing up when she was around.

Everyone had seen the bags under Adrien's eyes slowly grow, the whining from Grim about her behavior, the loud proclomations from Sebek during lunch. How Epel would casually tell Vil and Rook that he saw Marinette setting up something to get back at another student, she was causing problems and ruining everyone's time at school. Destruction of property, harrassing and threats of violence.

Crowley looked over the evidence, Vil should have been shocked at the amount, but Rook had been careful in his plans. He was always a step ahead of those around him, promising protection and security.

Vil scrunched up his nose at some of the stuff, reminded of the few fans of his that had become so obsessed that legal action had to be taken. The rest of the housewardens and their vices showed up, giving testimony of Marinette's behvaiour.

"She gave Ruggie food poisoning and destroyed Jack's cactai," Leon mentioned, trying to be dissmissive. (his tail lashed back and forth)

"She had ruined part of Heartslabyul's gardens," Riddle growled showing photos of burned and marred hedges.

"She was badgering our patrons and causing scenes weekly," Azul hissed when Jade provided several videos.

"She tried to dump water on Ortho," Idia tugged on his jacket strings when Ortho's videos played.

"She's constantly monitering everyone close to Adrien," Malleus said, a strain in his voice.

List after complaint after accusation.

Crowley's face had been passive, uninterested in the beginning, but Vil watched as his face knitted into that of confusion, discomfort and finally horror.

"Earlier today," Rook began once everyone had said their pieces. "Adrien had been getting ready to go out with Deuce, Ace, Grim, Epel, Jack, Ortho and Sebek. They were going to spend Valentine's day together as a group, he had been excited of this news, wanting to spend the day with his friends."

Vil watched as Rook took his hat off, face solem, hiding the anger he felt.

"Marinette had been insiting that she come along, wanting to "protect" him from the others. She accused the others of manipulating Adrien, saying that the only reason he can't love some is because they've changed him for the worse." His words were careful, calculated and dripping with a hatred Vil was sure he was holding back.

"She trapped him in his room, cornering him, crying and trying to manipulate Adrien into believing her. Breaking his walls down to move in, Grim burned the door down and the two left where he met with Epel. Currently Adrien, Grim, Ace, Deuce, Jack, Sebek, Epel, and Ortho are there. Marinette is likely wandering around campus looking for Adrien."

----

Vil and Rook insited on finding Marinette and bringing her to the Headmage's office. It was hard to find her at first, she was hiding and making sure to be hidden from them, already aware of the consequences of what she had done. Vil followed behind Rook, trusting his vice-warden to find the girl, and he did.

She had locked herself into a storage closet, Vil had wanted to go in peacefully, but Rook had already kicked the door in. Marinette pressed herself against the wall, snarling at Rook as she moved forward. (Vil stayed back.)

"What are you planning on doing to me?" Marinette hissed, holding the end of a mop to Rook's chest.

"I'm here to take you to the headmage." Vil watched as Rook gave a slight head tilt, the smile on his voice.

Marinette shoved him back before pressing herself against the wall once more. "Like that'll happen, you don't have anything against me!"

Vil was shocked, her voice sounded so sure of what she said, the confidence that no one could possibly touch her. He wanted to step forward, bark and say she was wrong, but Vil kept to the entrance. They couldn't let her get away.

"Oh~" Rook chuckled, "how naive of you to think so."

Marinette pushed over several tools within the closet as Rook drew forward.

"I have waited for this. I have watched you closely. You think I would just idly stand-by as you torment Le Chat du Soleil? Oh, no, no, no, no."

"You're all dangerous!" Marinette snapped, trying to hit Rook with the mop, only to miss. "You're only using him and manipulating him so he doesn't return home! If you all just stayed away, let me take care of him then we wouldn't be here for so long!"

Vil frowned.

The delusion Marinette was in. He had seen it from many of his fans.

"You don't love him like I do! I'm doing this because Adrien deserves to be happy, and he's only pretending to be happy with you!"

Rook stepped back as Marinette tried to strike him again.

"HE LOVES ME AS WELL! I KNOW IT! ONCE WE'RE BACK WE'LL BE HAPPY AND AWAY FROM YOU FREAKS!"

Rook laughed at that, a whole belly laugh that had him hunch over and hold himself up.

Vil watched as Marinette's face contorted into that of confusion, terror in her eyes. He watched as she realized there was an opening, Marinette threw the mop to the ground, ready to bolt out of the closet.

Rook had always been fast, Vil blinked and the sound of Marinette shouting and struggling had his eyes slowly move to the ground where Rook had restrained her. Vil walked in, grabbing rope from a box.

"Le Chat du Soleil will never love you like that." Rook hissed, his voice dripping with venom,

"I could change that!... He just... ACK... Hasn't found... The right person... I can make him better... He just... Needs some... Convincing!" Marinette struggled under Rook's weight.

Vil saw Rook's face, uninterested and bored. He crouched down, carefully tieing a knot around Marinette's wrists.

"You can not change him," Rook whispered, "he doesn't need changing."

Once Marinette was restrained, Vil stood up and took the lead back to Crowley's office. Marinette didn't stop talking, she was making excuses and trying to play victim.

"Le Chat du Soleil will never love you like that."

"You can not change him, he doesn't need changing."

The words rang through Vil's ears, opening the door and letting Marinette talk herself to her grave.

====

'Le Chat du Soleil' roughly translate to 'The Sun Cat.' (apologies if this is wrong, i used a translator-)

Huuuhh.... That was a lot... I got way into this one and i just couldn't stop. Sorry if there's not much on the Aro or Lithoromantic part.

I hc that Alix is Aroace, thus she doesnt do romance. Marinette doesn’t believe that, so she tries to hook her up with any boy available, because maybe she’s just confuse and love always conquers all. It had gotten to a point where Alix had enough and snaps at Marinette and ends their friendship right then and there. Marinette still wonders why Alix is angry at her when all she is doing is helping her find her love.

I can definitely see that happening. It's very much a "you just haven't met the right person yet."

Like, even if she realizes Alix doesn't like guys, what's stopping her from just doing the same thing but pushing different girls at her??

or would those prompts be best saved for the last two days of the month?

I don't know what either of those are, so maybe??

another one for Week 1!! this focuses on Rosegami with some background FelNathMarc. So i hope you enjoy :D

====

Kagami only tolerated Marinette. Her humiliation at the movie premeire and hearing the racist shit she said, or how Marinette had practically used her to get closer to Adrien. The whole thing made Kagami role her eyes, fussing over a boy, Kagami could never even think of doing something like that. So, when Marinette had called them friends, she simply nodded along as the other girl blabbed on and on about everything that they would do together.

It didn't escape Kagami's notice how Marinette's main focus was still Adrien. (Kagami found herself internally punching the wall)

Kagami watches and follows Marinette around, she didn't have much interest going on in her life, and with an odd satisfaction, Kagami would be delighted to watch Marinette fumble and trip over herself. It was only meant for good fun, Kagami thought it was a silly crush on Adrien that she could entertain. She realized too late just how far Marinette would go to get with Adrien, and Kagami was too seeped into Marinette's plans that she couldn't just turn and run.

She had threatened Felix when he kidnapped her, but his proclomations of love had felt stiff, rehersed and not real. Kagami didn't care, he was merely playing a role, one that Kagami could easily provide him. They held hands and kissed like any couple would, but it felt wrong and Kagami had found herself gagging when she was alone. It wasn't right when she kissed Felix, it made her skin crawl and her mind buzz with warning signals, as if she was in danger.

Kagami was no fool to how Felix felt, seeing how he always flinched away from her touch or how she always hesitated to kiss her. They weren't right for each other, but it made those around them happy.

Marinette squealed, hugging them both and congratulating them, saying how she could take them on double dates now that her and Adrien were together.

"Your together?" Felix asked, shock and horror written on his face.

"Yeah" Marinette smiled, ignoring how Felix grinded his teeth and Kagami scowled.

"You and Felix are dating?" Adrien looked at Kagami shocked, blinking a few times.

"Yes, is that really a shock?" Kagami asked, swallowing the bile in her throat.

Adrien chuckled, adjusting his bag strap, "yeah. I always thought Felix liked guys, but I shouldn't make such assumptions on anyone. I'm happy for you guys though!"

Kagami nodded, waving goodbye as Adrien left fencing practice.

"He said he suspected you like guys." Kagami told Felix watching the night life of Paris.

"... What if I did?" Felix asked.

Kagami shrugged, "I'd still date you so we don't have to deal with our families."

Felix hummed.

------

"You broke up!?" Marinette shouted, her voice rising in pitch at the end.

Kagami moved away, only for Marinette to continue to invade her space.

"I th-thought you two were going to stay together!"

"I don't like boys," Kagami stated it plainly.

They were adults now, Kagami had moved away from her mother and into an apartment, finding peace that she didn't have to worry about playing a role. It was Felix's idea really, Kagami had figured that they would slowly drift apart, but he had said he wanted to stay friends, and Kagami agreed. They spent years talking about themselves, how they hid in plain sight away from their friends and family, neither could afford to lose the only safety that they had at the time.

"You... Like girls..." Marinette's face twisted into several emotions at once.

(Kagami didn't miss the disgust that breifly shaped Marinette's face)

It was quick as Marinette moved away from Kagami, her body language devensive and scared, as if Marinette was repulsed to be so close to Kagami.

"Do you find me digusting." Less of a question and more of a statement.

Marinette's face controted into that of guilt and fear, she began to wave her hands around.

"No no no no! I don't mind at all, it's just shocking is all! I mean you and Felix always looked so good together and I thought you two would always be together. There's nothing wrong with you liking girls, I mean Rose, Juleka and Zoe like girls. I'm don't find you disgusting, again I'm just so..."

Kagami frowned, watching Marinette trip over herself trying to excuse her rather lakluster, it was almost laughable at how Marinette kept digging the hole she was in. But, Kagami let Marinette talk over and over, repeating herself at nausioum.

------

They had all met up at Adrien's place to catch up on lost time. The place was huge and the whole class, plus some extra significant others, had shown up. Kagami stayed to the side, watching the group mingle with each other, her eyes wandered and found Felix being gushed over by two men: one with long red hair and the other with shaggy black hair. She rolled her eyes at her ex-boyfriend being flustered and attempting to hide away from their compliments.

Swirling her cup, Kagami hummed only to see a woman with short blonde hair dressed in pink make her way over and stand next to her. She didn't say anything at first, glancing at Kagami before coughing into her fist and nervously smiling.

"Sorry to bother you, I'd figure I'd reintroduce myself—" Kagami turned to her — " I'm Rose Lavillant."

"Kagami Tsurugi."

Silence greeted the two as Kagami went back to people watching. (She noticed Alya and Nino giving Rose a quick thumbs up before returning to talking to Zoe and her girlfriend)

"What do you like to do Kagami?" Rose asked.

Kagami thought about it, there wasn't much she did now that she was out of her mother's control, naturally she found herself gravitating towards things her mother didn't like her doing. She found herself getting into pottery when drawing wasn't enough, and even gardening and cooking.

"I've been attempting at cooking," she said.

"Oh? What do you make?" Rose asked.

"I mostly stick to bento boxes for now, but I've been learning how to grill fish and even marinate pork."

Nothing she said was intersting, yet Rose looked at her and asked more questions, as if everything that Kagami said was more important than anything else. Like she was learning about it for the first time and Kagami was the one who was telling her about it.

"What do you like to do?" Kagami asked.

Rose's face lit up, she talked about getting into crochet and knitting, even saying she wants to start a little online store to sell her creations. Kagami nodded, listening, a small smile growing on her face.

------

While Kagami wasn't in Paris as often anymore, she kept in touch with Rose. Finding herself texting the other woman often and learning more about her through their conversations. She had a reoccuring illness that kept her from doing much else, how it weighed her down on bad days. Kagami was shocked at Rose's resilliance, but smiled and complimented her about it.

Everything came to quick stand-still when Rose informed Kagami that Marinette and Adrien broke up.

Kagami pretended to be shocked.

(She remembered Felix whispering to her how Adrien had cried about not being able to return Marinette's affections, that he felt broken for not loving her how she loved him. They both consoled him, telling him that he wasn't broken that it was okay to not feel this way.)

A weight from Kagami's chest had been aleviated, several years of Adrien putting Marinette first. She was relieved about the whole thing really, Adrien never had time to figure himself out, so Kagami was greatful he was taking that step.

Me: Send my condolances to Marinette

Rose: I'll let her know! She doesn't seem to be taking it well :(

Weeks past by and Kagami doesn't hear from Rose, she still informes her that she'll be coming to visit in the next few days, asking if they could plan something.

No response, not even a glance at the messages.

Kagami lands and finally hears what happened from an enranged Felix.

"She blames us for Adrien's decision!" He did circles around the couch. "I can't believe her! What made her think that this would last? Not everyone lives out their lives with their High School Sweethearts!"

Kagami hummed in agreement.

"Does she not realize that Adrien likely learned what she did?"

"That's the thing," Felix dragged a hand down his face. "Adrien still doesn't know! No ones told him about her stalking and various other crimes!"

Kagami scowled.

"Worst part? Rose was there comforting her, and Marinette snapped at her, blaming Rose that this was her fault." Felix waved his hands around. "Rose!? I don't know her personally, but that woman has done nothing but be supportive of Marinette and everthing she's done! I can't believe her!"

Kagami huffed, letting Felix rant and rave into the night.

Me: I'm in Paris.

Me: Felix told me what happened with you and Marinette.

Me: How about we meet up for lunch, my treat.

Rose: That sounds nice, what place were you thinking?

They met up the next day, Rose seemed to be in good spirits, though it was clear that mentally she was struggling just a bit. Kagami didn't want to bring it up, talking to Rose about what she's been doing in Japan. How she picked up some items for Rose of her favorite characters. This seemed to brighten Rose up considerablly, and Kagami smiled as the other woman gushed over the pins and little photo cards of her favorite characters.

"What the hell?"

Both looked up, seeing a furious and confused Marinette.

She looked awful. Her hair was down, and and sticking up all over the place, her clothes were wrinkled and looked like she splet in them, but Marinette's eyes were the worst. Bloodshot, clearly from her crying and heavy bags. Kagami stood up from her seat as Marinette marched over to the two of them.

"What are you two doing?" She demanded, trying to keep her voice low.

Patrons of the cafe were glancing over their shoulders, clearly trying not to stare but it was hard to ignore. Kagami placed herself in front of Rose, feeling a sudden urgency to keep Marinette away from her.

"We're hanging out," Kagami stated plainly.

"Hanging out," Marinette scoffed, "sure. That's one way to say your on a date."

Kagami rolled her eyes, "I'm visiting and simply wanted to catch-"

"Sure," Marinette spat. Her voice raised and more patrons were looking on at them. "You just want to make me miserable, is that it? Rub it in my face that I'm lonely and your not?"

"We're just catching up," Kagami reiterated.

She felt Rose take her hand (they were cold), Kagami held her hand back.

"Everything that's happened and you guys can only thing of yourselves!" Marinette had started to yell, staff members mutted to one another, Kagami caught sight of a waiter whispering on the phone.

"Marinette-" Rose had stood up, reaching out to her.

She looked at Rose with disgust, slapping her hand away. "DON'T TOUCH ME! YOU DON'T DESERVE TO LAY A HAND ON ME AFTER YOU LEFT ME! WHAT KIND OF FRIEND LEAVES? YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT ME, YOU NEVER DID!"

Kagami pushed Rose behind her, glaring Marinette down. This further angered Marinette, who continued to shout and scream at the two, saying stuff that Kagami didn't care to process. She gave a comforting squeeze, her eyes landed on the police cruiser that parks outside of the cafe.

So, Kagami steps back as does Rose, the police walk in and walk over.

In just three mintues, Kagami watches as Marinette goes from screaming to crying her eyes out. Only, the cop looks annoyed and escorts her out of the cafe, despite Marinette's protests. Another cop begins to ask questions to the staff, some patrons, and finally ended with Kagami and Rose.

Despite everything, Kagami and Rose leave the cafe and head off to Roses apartment, the events were a lot and Rose had asked for them to head over. Kagami agreed, knowing that it likely caused Rose a lot of stress and put her in some amount of pain both physically, mentally and emotionally.

She grabbed a glass of water for Rose and even got a few snacks upon her request. They sat on the couch and watched a few movies, Rose huddled in a blanket and leaning against Kagami.

"Y'know Marinette did have a point," Rose mused quietly, a yawn reaching the end of her sentence.

Kagami hummed.

"Maybe it was a date... Or..."

"You wanted it to be a date? Kagami finished.

Rose nodded burrying her face into the blankets. "It's silly I know! But, I really like you and-"

Kagami wrapped her arm around Rose resting her head against her's.

"Let's take it easy," Kagami whispered.

Rose leaned further into Kagami, a soft laugh leaving her mouth.

"Yeah, that sounds nice."

Happy pride month y'all!! i bring you my rarepair for the first week :D

this doesn't really have any dialogue (oops), but i hope you like it! :]

sorry for any formatting issues, i couldn't submit this through my laptop for some reason, soooo... mobile instead i guess!!

------

Juleka is very observant of her classmates, watching them come and go, bleeding into the shadows and never getting involved. Maybe that's a mistake, because she watches Marinette's sharp turn from hating Adrien to being obssessive over him. She watched with discomfort as Marinette pursuaded the other girls into her schemes. Juleka rumunated every night, she was terrible for letting this happen, but to speak up would lose her only friends.

Weeks passed and Juleka had spoken to Luka about what was going on, so he convinced her to slowly distance herself from the group. She knew it was for the best, it was putting her at risk of being an Akuma victim.

Slowly, Juleka found herself in the off company of Kim, Max, Nathaniel and Alix. It was odd, but Juleka was thankful at how they all understood her limits and didn't presure her. (She still gets flustered upon remembering when Kim had her shout that she was confident.)

Despite the distance between her and the other girls growing, Juleka still observed them, seeing how each attempt at getting Adrien's attention failed. (Juleka would never tell them that she saw him blush at guys from other classes.)

She also started to notice the shift in Chloe. Small, barely noticable, but one where Juleka's keen eye had always been drawn to.

Chloe didn't bother Marinette unless the other provoked her, she didn't throw snide remarks at the other students unless she deemed them to be unacceptable actions, Chloe spent more time around Adrien pulling Marinette's focus from the poor girls that interacted with him. Taking the assult of Marinette's schemes instead of the other girls.

Juleka watched, never speaking about Chloe or mentioning the change to anyone. She watched as Chloe would whisper to Sabrina for help, how Chloe would use her money and start a project for Akumatized victims.

She watched and watched as Chloe changed. But it didn't seem to matter to anyone else, Juleka had attempted to cut contact with the rest of the girls, but she somehow kept getting pulled back into their circle no matter how much she tried to leave.

Even so, Juleka tried her best to ignore them, tried her best to not be involved with their problems and schemes. Kim, Max, Nathaniel and Alix proved to be better company, bringing more teenager complaining about school than drama that could lead to Akumatized.

Chloe's change seemed to have ceased after being Akumatized once again. Juleka watched as the girl regressed into old habits, her snark and bite began to get louder and more obvious. (She hears Marinette whisper to Alya that Chloe will never change)

Juleka hates this, so she swallows her fears and insecurities, marching up to Chloe just before the two walk into class and asks if she can help her with modeling. (Chloe's quick to surpess her shock, as if she had been practicing for years)

She scoffs but agrees, in which they exchange numbers. Juleka is quick to follow Chole's demands when it comes to modelling but nothing more, stating firmly that she's not doing anything outside of it. Chole doesn't push, but still puts Juleka through hell when they spend time together.

(Marinette's frantic words of flat encouragment, dismissing Juleka's fears of modeling, pushing her and pushing her until Juleka felt like she couldn't breathe or how her body felt a million miles away.)

But, Juleka can see the passion that Chole has, how she takes into Juleka's sense of fashion, providing colors but keeping the gothic and emo style to it. Juleka reaches out, asking Chole about her other designs, and Chole (reluctantly) shows her.

Juleka is amazed at the variety. Different styles and aesthetics, some clashing together that make it impossible to tell who would even wear such a thing, and yet Juleka flips through the sketch book.

(Marinette's designs come to mind, about how she bragged and shoved into everyone's faces that she was the best designer in all of Paris. Ignoring any critics that dared to try to give advice.)

An outfit with inspirations drawn from Lunar Moths and the Chinese Lion dancers. One that mixes a tradional white suit and a black wedding dress. Colors clash, styles overlayed on top of one another. Inspiration pictures tapped and glued around the pieces.

Chole rambles about how they don't look good, that no one would ever wear such things. Juleka's eyes land on a mostly black Lolita outfit, the front of the dress opened up, the inside of the dress a bright blue with bits if white to resemble the sky, black shorts that went down to about mid-thigh, and black combat boots. The figure carried a parasol that has rabbits and birds hanging from strings on the edges, while the top was that of various flowers.

It clashed and looked like a mess, but there was a certain charm to the design that Juleka felt when looking at it. The outfit called to her, and she smiled.

She was in Chloe's face, pointing at the outfit and asking if she could wear this. Chole's face is read, flushed and embarrassed and she agrees, but states it'll take time to get ready. Juleka beams and says that's okay, and that she wants to take pictures in the outfit when it's done.

Weeks pass and Chloe informs Juleka that she'll be modeling with Adrien, who she made an opposing outfit for. Juleka asks why and Chloe looks baffled saying that she knows she gets nervous when on camera so Adrien can ease her worries during the photoshoot. Juleka nearly breaks into tears as she hugs Chloe tightly.

====

Luka should have seen this from a mile away, he had been asked by Juleka to accompany her to the photoshoot. He could see the fear in his sister's eyes as she explained Marinette's tendencies when it came to Adrien.

He smiled and joined his sister, sitting to the side, strumming along to the notes of the three in front of him. The melodies worked in harmony with one another, he focused on the intertwining dance of acoustic bass and the thrum of the viola.

Juleka's song sang along to Chloe's, following the rythmn that only he could hear, base and viola were mixing and matching each other's pace.

A screeching halt as the mimic of Adrien's song had Luka standing up abruptly and turning in the direction of Marinette. She glared at the group, her eyes switching between Juleka and Chpoe. Her song became haunting, dangerous, pulling out from behind the tree, Marinette stalked over.

Luka moved towards Juleka, Chloe turned around, glaring at Marinette and quickly meeting her half-way.

He looked at Adrien and Juleka, noticing how Adrien's song picked up and how he clenched his fists. Luka took his sister's hand, easing her shaking just a bit as the bass stuttered and stopped occasionally. Both were keeping their emotions in check, Luka glanced around for Akuma's that could appear.

The volume of Marinette's voice grew as she pointed at Juleka calling her a traitor, scum, and much more. Luka tightened his grip on Juleka's hand, seeing how she surpressed tears and tried to control her breathing.

Marinette continued shouting at them all, mostly Juleka who had started to cry. Eventually the police arrived, escorting Marinette away but nothing more.

Chloe said that they'll try another day.

====

Juleka was interrogated the next day. Marinette had the girls surrounding her, shoulders shaking and sobbing when Juleka had arrived. She had turned to leave but Myleen was already calling to her and Rose was pulling at her arm.

They asked question after question, Juleka didn't respond finding her throat closing in as memories replayed of yesterday. Marinette had grabbed Juleka by the shoulders demanding, nearly screaming, at what she was thinking. How could she betray her and work with Chloe and how Juleka knew that she liked Adrien.

Juleka looked away from Marinette's tear-stricken face, guilt pooling into her stomach. Mind racing as everything dissappeared around her.

She was a terrible friend.

Were they even friends?

It was an awful decision.

Marinette can't even talk to him.

How could you do this?

A harsh pull to reality as Juleka was pushed toward the back. Marinette shouted at Chloe, who turned and sneered at Marinette.

Chloe had begun to defend herself.

Juleka interrupted, glaring at Marinette and the others for being so blind, how could they be so stuck in their world that they can't see the changes around them.

Alya points out that Chloe hasn't changed, but Juleka refutes, stating anything and everything about Chloe and the changes she made. That they decided to turn a blind eyes to the differences.

The group tried to argue but Juleka refused to listen to them. Months of pent-up anger, disgust, discomfort, and anxiety spilled out.

It was quickly over when Chloe gently placed her hand on Juleka's shoulder, telling the group that there is nothing more to disscuss. Marinette opened her mouth, but Kim's loud precense silenced her as the two sat in the back of the class.

Juleka & Chloe spoke in hushed voices during class, leaning against one another as they made plans on where to do the photoshoot. Juleka smiled as Chloe showed her more of her designs, saying that she'll be stopping at the library to print more pictures.

Juleka decided to join Chloe, linking their pinkies under the table.

i don't know what to call this ship (T0T) i've just been kinda going with TigerBee. anyway, again happy Pride Month and i wish y'all well :D

Here, Clara doesn't goes running to Marinette and gives her the Lady role, but Marinette signs up for the audition, believing it's going to be a piece of cake, she's always good at anything in the end, so singing and dancing must be as well. Besides, it's Chloe, she's clearly going to do a better work than her.

She fails. Like, horribly. Marinette typical clumsiness gets in the way and she somehow make out with the floor three times.

There were no words to describe what the hell came out of Marinette's throat the moment she tried to sing, a lot of the staff and people in the surrounding had to cover their ears to save themselves from such a torture

Clara feels... Pity, for the girl. But pity didn't get you the lead role. Chloe stays with the Ladybug role

Also, Adrien didn't sign up for the Chat Noir paper because it could compromise his secret identity, besides that he's not qualified for the role. He's mostly there as moral support for his friends, and it's happy that Chloe got the main role.

Juleka is encouraged by her Rose to made an audition and she gets the Chat Noir role.

Marinette trying to sabotage Chloe and getting the Ladybug role is mostly out of pride since Adrien bailed out, but since Clara is a celebrity and they had already had problems with crazy fans, there's a lot of security around and Marinette easily gets caught red-handed. When her classmates confront about why she do that she tries to justify herself telling that she's trying to protect Juleka from Chloe, but in reality they actually make a great team, the video ended up being better than in Canon, with Kitty Section gaining popularity afterwards thanks to Juleka appearing, and they're set off to have more collaborations with her in the future

I like this, the one thing that I'd change is the part about why Adrien isn't Chat Noir.

Because he didn't sign up at all in canon iirc, I'm pretty sure he was just given the part (I can't remember if this was before or after Animaestro, so him voicing Chat Noir in the in show movie could have also been a factor).

Prompt 1 (Set in the pokemon world): A Pokemon contest (think pet talent shows but they get to fight afterwards, or at least in the anime) is being held in Marinette’s home Miracle Town, and she’s excited to enter with her Ledyba Tikki in the hopes of impressing her crush Adrien, who’s appearing as a guest judge! Despite the stiff competition (consisting of Audrey’s snobbish daughter Chloe, the very icy Ace Battler Kagami, the mysterious masked contestant calling himself “Meowth Noir”, and many others), she’s certain that she’ll win - After all, she was praised by the (in)famous contest champion Audrey Bourgeois and won (a small private) one by former regional pokemon champion Gabriel Agreste! She’s got this in the bag!

…Except she doesn’t - in fact, she loses in the first round, told the moves she had Tikki use didn’t fit the theme and weren’t all that impressive, and encouraged to practice more for the next contest, Needless to say, she takes the advice poorly.

Alternatively: Marinette does somehow make it to the next round/battle portion, only to immediately lose to her opponent because she focused more on making Tikki look stylish than having a battle strategy planned.

(Yes, Adrien is Meowth Noir (name altered to fit the setting). He and Felix swapped places so that he could participate in the contest as Gabriel is constantly monitoring and interfering with his son’s Pokemon journey.)

Prompt 2 (crossover with the Kalos season of the anime since it’s based on France): Ash and friends stop in Paris Miracle Town and meet Adrien and Marinette, and it gets revealed Adrien knows Ash’s travel companion and childhood friend Serena due to both being Pokemon Performers (used for those who have their Pokemon perform and show off for others in things called Pokemon Showcases. Canonically can only be female but we’re ignoring this for the prompt). Despite the friendship being clearly platonic (and Serena obviously having a crush on Ash), Marinette gets Marinette about Adrien daring having a friendship with a girl that isn’t her and tries to sabotage the relationship, which just prompts to sour everyone on her, including Adrien. To try and save face, she challenges Serena to a pokemon battle and immediately gets trounced, as Serena has way more battle experience than she does.

(Alternatively, and reusing prompt one, Marinette and Serena enter a pokemon contest together and Marinette tries to sabotage her, only to get caught and banned for life)

Yeah, never played the games, can barely remember the anime. All I can remember is there was a girl who wanted to be a Ditto Master (which honestly, same), at one point James had tits (he was also in a bikini, iirc), and there was one episode where Ash, Misty, and Brock had to fight a biker gang (and one of the girls was really fucking pretty, I can't remember why but I associate her with the color green and she had a Cloyster or however the fuck you spell it).

Quick note: Night Raven College is an all boys school, but the main character (Yuu) is basically a self-insert and can be *anyone* which means that Yuu being a girl isn't impossible.

Adrien gets transported to NRC just after the events of season 5, unfortunately he doesn't have Plagg with him, but he finds solace and companionship in Grim

After the entrance ceremony, he's put into Ramschackle Dorm, he meets Ace and Deuand Vice and the group quickly hit off and begin friends

I'm gonna skip a bit ahead, to when Marinette is suddenly transported into NRC

At this point, Adrien has befriended nearly everyone in the school. Naturally he has Ace, Duece, Grim, Jack, Epel, Sebek, and Ortho (the first years) as his main group of friends

But he's also friends with Leona, Riddle, Kalim, Vil & Jade. All of them are protective of Adrien, but especially Leona and Vil.

When Marinette arrives, she's stumbling over herself when Adrien runs up shouting that he's happy to see a familiar face around here

She asks what's going on, and Adrien basically gives a run down of how he teleported here, how he's been trying to find a way back home, along with everything that he's been dealing with

Instantly the First Years suspect something with Marinette when they're introduced to her. She's blushing and leaning close to Adrien despite how he flinches away from her

Days pass and Marinette is enrolled into the school, and she's doing terribly

Unlike in her and Adrien's world, NRC is more strict and she can't get away with much. Instead of focusing on her fashion designs and stalking making sure that Adrien is okay, she has to actually do school work about a world she doesn't know or care about

Marinette, like Adrien, doesn't have Tikki with her. She's struggling and no one seems to like her

What's even worse, Adrien is being kept away from her!

Sure she's sharing a dorm with him, but the stupid cat thing is always with him, and that group of friends of his had started to sleepover as well!

She starts to get especially frustrated when another teen with light blond hair with purple tips stops her one day, telling her to stop following Adrien around the school

Marinette, not realizing who this is (why would she bother to remember?), says that he doesn't get to tell her what to do. That she's only protecting Adrien from the rest of them since they're all so dangerous

He stares down at her, disgust, rage and like Marinette didn't even deserve to look in his general way. He states that he has more power over her than she does, because she's just a mere human with no magic. But he doesn't need magic to ruin her, that his influence is far greater than her own

Marinette is getting more and more frustrated, and outright tells Adrien that these new people are bad influences and that he shouldn't be wasting his time getting to know them since they'll just be going back home

Adrien is horrified by what Marinette says, and he tries to counter back, but she keeps pressing and shouting that they're not good people

He refuses to believe that, and Marinette starts crying, saying that it's stressful and how he doesn't understand that she's trying to protect him

Malleus, who was outside, hears this. Concerned for his friend, he patiently waits for Adrien to exit Ramschackle and offers him a place to stay for the night

Adrien declines, but does stay outside with Malleus longer than usual

Word is quick to spread about Marinette and her basically trying to guilt trip Adrien, and no one even bothers to look at her, but if she gets close to Adrien. The Dorm leaders and their closest friends are made aware, and Adrien is quickly whisked away before Marinette can talk to him

I wanna do more, but it would mostly focus on Adrien befriending the Twst cast, and them helping him understand that what he went through is not okay, and that he should be allowed to heal. It wouldn't have much Marinette Salt until she's introduced, so yeah! Here's that :D

Fun fact about me, I played the Twisted Wonderland for a short period of time. I stopped because I'm dedicated to one game and one game only (and like, storage), but I might pick it up again sometime in the future. I liked it. I had fun with it.

(also shout out to the Marinette Critique Studio, fucking love lurking about in there)

Anyways-

I enjoyed reading this. :D

I love that Adrien is getting a good friend/support group through this. Especially when Marinette shows up and tries to convince him their bad people.

I feel like he'd eventually point out that she's acting exactly like his father. Gabriel would often tell him their friends were horrible people. Bad influences. And now she's doing that to his new friends??

He understands things are different and scary and difficult, but she's judging them. Judging them like she judged him. He's not asking her to be friends with them, just civil. Polite.

I know of it, not my kinda thing. But I can see this working for Marinette Salt.

CONTENT WARNING: character death; heavily implied reference to future abuse

Otome Reincarnation AU:

Miraculous x Bratz Prompt, with Chloé being Chloe from Bratz because I can totally see it

Also, because I can see the multiple ways the Marinette salt can play in this crossover. Mainly Marinette and Audrey salt, because I need more fashion disaster Marinette in this world

Ooooohhh!!!

As someone who also watched Bratz growing up, I love this.

Now, this isn't the first time I've experienced ____ as ____ (thanks Gacha Life YT), but it is one of the few that I can see making sense.

As for salt...

“OMG what is with those costumes 🤣🤣🤣”

“Why is everyone dressed in garbage bags?”

“I’m trying to be nice because it’s obviously a student film, but jeez! Who was in charge of the costume department!”

The group is met with a steady stream of criticism and insults from the public audience, getting extremely low scores and one stars; some about the story, others about the acting, and a few obvious trolls did pop up, but a majority of the complaints were launched at the outfits Marinette had made, feeling like they were amateurish and low quality/effort for a movie that was supposed to be showcased to the masses and had been praised by both Gabriel Agreste and the director of the Ladybug movie (needless to say, that caused a few nepotism accusations). Some tried to be fair about it and give advice for future improvements, and there was some praise for the soundtrack and Adrien’s presence, but it was clear that everyone thought that the terrible clothes brought the entire thing down. No one was spared, but Nino and Marinette got the worst of it, especially the former when someone who was a judge for the film contest they did way earlier in the school commented and revealed that his getting first place had been done out of pity as they knew he had used Akuma attack footage for his film since it didn’t match the rest of his film (Alya had uploaded the Horrificator stuff for her blog without realizing that the panel would check), but with it being a minor contest, they didn’t demerit him for it.

Nino ends up running out in tears while Adrien and Alya race after him to give comfort. Eventually, he does recover and uses the revelation to put more effort into his future films (especially the costumes). Yeah, he won’t be the next Steven Spielberg, but he’ll slowly work his way up to making his films more entertaining and visually appealing than they are now.

Marinette on the other hand, was blowing a gasket. People were insulting her costumes left and right, even using stills from the movie to make memes from! Some even found out about her clothing site and have been leaving scathing remarks about her products because of it! Despite advice from Tikki to ignore the more cruel criticisms and use the helpful ones to improve like Nino did (and maybe find a way to filter her customers), she instead makes proxy accounts for the review sites to argue against the criticisms about her costumes and give the film higher ratings. Users, naturally, accused her of being a bot or shill, and she eventually gets her accounts suspended or banned for violating TOS with her spamming comments.

NGL, Anon, I don't see any Nino Salt unless the Salt is the moment he's running away crying. Because honestly that feels like a valid reaction to what happened. If he had done even a bit of what Marinette did, then sure, I'd say there was some Nino Salt and this prompt probably wouldn't have been posted. Probably.

Anyways, I enjoyed reading this. I fully agree that the costumes are awful. Like, if the costumes were just pieces they found in their parents closet or being sold for cheap, I wouldn't say anything. Moreso if they had a limited budget, and thus didn't want to risk ruining something they couldn't replace.

But those were "designed." Thought was apparently put into them. And the thought sucked. Is the thought even in the room? Is the concept of a thought with us??

Also I know one of the judges was lenient towards Nino's first film getting first place, because he used footage from an akuma fight, but that akuma footage was his. Nino was the one who took that footage. I want to know what the thought process towards him using said footage was that resulted in him getting first place out of pity.

I don't know enough about Sublime to make a proper prompt for her, however, some things that'd happen in the scenario where she decides not to be Marinette's friend, but still be friends with Adrien:

• She definitely tells Adrien what happened. Maybe not immediately, but definitely sooner rather than later.

How her legs weren't repaired by the Miraculous Cure. How what happened ruined a great opportunity for her.

• Adrien would definitely be suspicious because her prosthetics should have been fixed by the Miraculous Cure. Things broken prior to someone being akumatized have been fixed before (see Alix's pocket watch and Marc's journal/notebook).

So what happened to make this time different? Did Sublime have to be the one akumatized for her legs to be fixed by the Miraculous Cure?

• If Marinette is worried about Adrien finding out, she's mortified when Chat Noir begins asking LB why her cure didn't fix Sublime's prosthetics.

How does he know they weren't fixed? Did she forget that they weren't? Did she not go see for herself and assumed they were fine? Or did someone tell him? Did Sublime tell someone, and then they told Chat Noir??

• Sublime also definitely tells Adrien what Marinette does isn't okay. How it feels creepy and weird. How it makes her uncomfortable and how she doesn't understand why he doesn't feel the same.

That leads into Adrien rethinking his relationship with Marinette and realizing, yeah... it is weird. It does make him uncomfortable.

And the more he thinks about it, the more he tries to remember what it was that made him fall in love with her, the more he begins to realize that there was nothing.

The moment he said he fell in love with her? Reality was that he felt, well, violated?? He can tell you why he thinks she's nice and can be a good friend. But why he loves her?? Nothing. Or at least, nothing that makes sense anymore.

• It doesn't take long for Adrien to end their relationship. It's messy and both parties end up leaving in tears and with broken friendships.

• I can see Sublime feeling a bit guilty, because she didn't mean for Adrien and Marinette to breakup. But at the same time, she's not going to apologize for helping Adrien see the truth.

• Honestly, bring Heart Fixer in early, but have Tikki have the foresight to remove the earrings. She needs to find a new temp. holder, quickly. And instead of going to Alya or Adrien, she gives the earrings to Sublime.

• Adrien breaking up with Marinette, combined with her being akumatized, makes Marinette double down on not telling Adrien anything, as well as keeping an eye on both him and Sublime.

• For a good chunk of S6, Sublime is Adrien's only friend, because the majority of his old friends either blame him for his and Marinette's relationship failing (in other words, Marinette did nothing wrong and he's a jerk for leading her on) or they want nothing to do with the drama and are staying quiet.

And for that reason, I can easily see Adrien and Sublime becoming a couple. Some of Adrien's old friends get mad that he moved on so fast. They blame Sublime, thinking and claiming she stole Adrien from Marinette.

But the others realize how happy Sublime makes him. How happy they make each other.

And they begin to compare his relationship with her with his relationship with Marinette. Things they notice:

▪︎ Marinette has ditched Adrien during dates, Sublime hasn't.

▪︎ Marinette made a big deal over a stupid kiss, Sublime doesn't.

▪︎ Marinette cried when Adrien didn't show up for movie night, something he very specifically said he was going to do so she could spend time with her girl friends. Sublime appreciates that he wants her to spend time with her friends without him having to be there, and ends up inviting him anyways, because she wants him there. No reason other than that. And when Adrien still insists he doesn't want to go, she doesn't get upset when he doesn't show up.

▪︎ Some of the girls bring up Marinette's pull down calendar with Adrien's schedule and how she knows it for the next 3 years. Sublime doesn't have his schedule, but she knows what's happening during the week because he told her.

▪︎ Marinette stalking Adrien is brought up, Sublime has never stalked him.

Anywhere they're seen together is always planned. Be it they go together or they meet up at the specific location.

• The ones who blamed Adrien and Sublime for Adrienette ending? Apologies are handed out, and they understand why neither Adrien or Sublime want to make quick amends.
