#sabrinette

I drew this scene in reference to the Awesome couple Vs Evil and intimidating horse meme but it's Miraculous characters. I got a thought about the latest episode Queen of the Dreadzone (6.24).

The scene:

Zoé, Sabrina and Marinette hang out together. The three girls spend a lovely moment together. Zoé is kissing a pleased Sabrina on the cheek. Meanwhile, Chloé watches all the three of them. She is really upset, angry and jealous to see her half-sister, her "traitorous" former lackey and the bakery girl being happy and loveful for each other.

-Zoé and Sabrina as the awesome lesbian couple

-Marinette as the happy supporting friend/lover

-Chloé as the evil and Intimidating horse/bee/brat

(Sabrina x Marinette)

Another submission for @mlbfemslashfebruary

This being the one completely wholesome entry~

You don’t realize it, but I’ve been watching you from afar for a while.

The letter appeared one day, out of the blue. Written on pink stationary and with handwriting that she didn’t recognize.

Immediately she showed the letter to Alya, with the hopes that her best friend maybe could give insight. After all, the letter writer probably is in her class.

Or maybe not. Maybe the person only caught Marinette’s eyes in the hallway, so that meant Madame Mendeleiev’s group also is a possibility.

Alya shook her head. “Nope, no one I know. Did you want to pass it through the rest of us?”

Marinette sat back and thought for a moment. She peered over to see that Adrien’s book unexpectedly had some pink sheets sticking out of it.

Not the same colour of the note. Marinette didn’t care, Adrien must be the one!

“No! No. I think maybe I know who it is. I’ll let them come to me.”

“A OTP3 crack ship that I can say that I like really much in MLB is probably Chlobrinette. Ok ok, I know what your thinking; "Chloe bullies both of them!", "Sabrina is a nothing character, so she's unshippable!", "Marinette likes Adrien!", etc., but just hear me out! XD First off, Sabrina is queen. Nuff said. Two, it means a ship is canon, doesn't mean that you can't ship said characters with other people. Also three, I mostly ship these three together for the potential that they have. They also look just look good together!

I also have a couple more reasons why I ship!

1). They just kind of remind me of another Luz x Amity x Willow, which I also ship.

2). Again, redeemed Chloe! 

3). I know the episode Evillustrator was pretty anti Chlobrinette, but it still kind of opened my eyes to the possible ship if things were different. What can I say?

4). Chloe’s rich, she would spoil her queens, especially when it comes to making up for what she’s done ^^ Plus mother hen Chloe FTW!

5). Two sweet people like Sabrina and Marinette could bring the best out of Chloe. Maybe even Chloe could teach them to be more assertive? 

You know that bit at the end of Oblivio where all the confirmed and implied couples state that they play “Super Penguino” together? And Sabrina gets cut off as she mentions that she and Chloe sometimes play? I’ve seen most people agree that the game is DEFINITELY code for something (I choose to believe it’s making out rather than straight-up sex).

So that got me thinking- why exactly is Sabrina so devoted to Chloe? It can’t be just straight-up fear, because Chloe and Marinette outright hate each other but so far Chloe hasn’t been able to actually do anything to her that stuck. So my (and other’s) theory is that Sabrina’s got one hell of a crush. And the “Super Penguino” thing suggests that Chloe knows about it, and possibly reciprocates. But since this is Chloe we’re talking about, there’s a chance that Chloe knows about Sabrina’s feelings for her and is using tokens of affection- like kissing her- to keep her around and exploit her loyalty. It’s like a super watered-down version of Harley Quinn and the Joker, but without any physical abuse. That we know of.

Obviously this angle is both too dark and too gay for Astruc to touch it, but that’s why I’m here. Even if Chloe does feel the same way, this would be an unhealthy relationship if I ever saw one. While I don’t particularly love Sabrina, I do think she deserves basic respect and a girlfriend that won’t take advantage of her. So naturally I thought of them breaking up. It doesn’t really matter how or why they break up, but the aftermath does. We know Chloe is probably going to be nasty about the whole thing, and Sabrina would be absolutely devastated. Chloe might even drop the bomb that she never really liked Sabrina, she only indulged her because she was useful.

If Marinette finds out about this, you bet she’s going to try and help. At first Sabrina might try to get her to help get them back together, but Marinette shuts that down real fast. Instead, she does her best to show Sabrina how a real friendship should work. She gives Sabrina positive reinforcement even when Sabrina doesn’t “earn” it, and tries to get her to find some hobbies of her own, something to focus on besides serving other people. 

But considering Chloe’s tendency to isolate Sabrina, make her feel worthless, and generally be horrible and abusive (“I’m her only friend”), Sabrina doesn’t just need a friend. She needs a therapist. And that’s Marinette’s biggest accomplishment: convincing Sabrina to get therapy for all the damage Chloe’s done over the years. 

With a little help from her new friends and a LOT of help from her therapist, Sabrina starts to become her own person again. And to everyone’s surprise, they’re starting to like that person. Especially Marinette, who no longer just sees a victim in need of help- she sees a friend. They end up building each other up and supporting each other in a way that only they really understand, because in a way, they’re pretty similar.

Marinette looks at Sabrina pre-breakup and sees somebody she could have easily become, what with her people-pleasing tendencies. Sabrina looks at Marinette and sees what she aspires to be- someone who is kind and helpful, but knows where to draw the line, at least most of the time. They end up becoming incredibly close friends, to the point that Alya jokes about Sabrina stealing her bestie. Eventually, it becomes something more than a friendship.

Maribrina comes out of left field to most of the class, but they support it for the most part. Even Alya, who was on board the Adrienette train LONG before the breakup, is happy for them. Chloe is the only one who takes any issue with it, but at this point Chloe is practically a non-entity in the class, seeing as she’s one toxic person and everyone else makes sure not to let her anywhere near their friendships. 

Adrien might be involved in this too, and this is going to get salty, but I think he’d try and encourage Sabrina to go back to Chloe. Adrien won’t rock the boat, and if someone else does it, he’ll try to get everything back to where it was pre-rocking. Sabrina eventually admits what he’s been saying to her whenever he gets her alone, and just like that there’s a wall of extremely pissed teenage girls between Adrien and Sabrina at all times, just like there’s a Marinette-shaped blockade between her and Chloe even when the others aren’t around.

Basically? Sabrina comes out with a bunch of new friends and a healthy relationship with the only person who ever tried to help her out of Chloe’s toxic grip in the first place, because if she really is into Chloe, or even if she isn’t: 

She deserves better.

And something that’s really important for everyone to be aware of: Just because it’s queer doesn’t mean it’s healthy. Abuse is not something that only exists between men and women. Even if Chloe and Sabrina aren’t “dating”, it’s still an abusive relationship, and it’s not okay, especially because the show seems to be hell-bent on continuing it in favor of upholding the status quo--much like Adrien. 

(because don’t forget. He’s been friends with Chloe since they were little kids. He’s been there for her relationship with Sabrina from the start. He knows how she’s treating her is wrong, but has he ever done anything about it? Nope. Because that would be inconvenient and require actual effort. At the very least, he could refuse to associate with Chloe, and simply be there to support Sabrina, but he can’t even be assed to to that much. And then we’re supposed to believe he cares about his classmates. Suuuure.)
