⚠️ Cw: abuse

Everyone is hyped at Heartfixer, but I’m Still At The Restaurant (Lady Chaos), so bear with me here:

We know Amelie has absolutely despised Gabriel from the beginning but there was no reason to hate him that much.

So let’s go back to Representation, and, surprise, her behavior stems from abuse.

J: First date, huh son? Emilie, What’s she like?

G: Beautiful..Brave...Blonde… like our family fries, I guess?

If she told the world:

Kagami and Adrien would of lost all parental figures with who knows what happening to kagami and Adrien probably living with his likely abusive grandfather

Adrien would lose his entire support system with Nathalie gone and would probably have to move pushing him away from marinette

Adrien who in s6 is sick of his popularity would probably of been attacked and antagonized for being the son of hawkmoth and even if he wasn’t he would still be in the spotlight because of his connection.

Nathalie in s6 is protecting ladybugs identity, if she was put in jail she could’ve revealed marinette and i suspect she’s gonna double cross the kingdom.

If she told just Adrien:

Adrien would either be

- forced to live a lie just like marinette, and the suffering he’s already gone through hearing everyone call his abusive father a hero would be much worse

-or tell the world himself and all the previous consequences would happen

Either way Adrien’s mental state would seriously decline and even though marinette doesn’t know Adrien’s still cat noir and if both hero’s are mentally unstable cerise could win.

The truth will come out eventually but even her buying time has helped

Adrien’s able to first grieve his fathers death before the secret comes out and while that will reshape and regress Adrien’s grief it’s still something

A support group for Adrien has had time to form for when he finds out, Amelie and Felix seem to be planning how to help Adrien once he finds out

Adrien being able to slowly find out that Gabriel’s hawkmoth will minimize the shock and will be better than “hey your dads dead also he’s hawkmoth”

I think it’s easy to say marinettes wrong for lying when we don’t get to see the consequences of what happens if she told the truth,
