Holy shit I just made a brain blast connection.

Legend says even post-TSATS they have their Gay Panic™ moments.

the fact that bug noire told adrien that she was mortally wounded and that gabriel used the wish to save her ............. omg ..... absolutely horrific thing for adrien chat noir agreste to hear. i dont think she has any idea how much that was the worst possible thing to tell adrien because she doesn't know he's CHAT NOIR!!!!

do you ever think about. every single moment where marinette must feel guilty about keeping the truth from adrien. every time he says something about his father and she has to paste on a smile and convince herself she's doing the right thing. every time he comes close to losing his amoks because he doesn't realize how important they are. how it must have dawned on her at some point that gabriel CONTROLLED his son. and why is she protecting the monster that did that
