My name is Saja. I’m a wife, a mother, and a woman who once believed her story would be simple. I thought my days would be filled with watching my daughter grow — from her first smile to her first steps — surrounded by the small joys of everyday life.
But life had other plans.
War has returned to our home. Again. And once again, we find ourselves living under skies that never seem to rest.
There was a moment — a fragile, breathless moment — when the bombs paused and the world seemed to remember us. It gave us hope. We thought maybe, just maybe, we could start to rebuild. But now, we are back in the dark — hiding, holding on, praying.
I’m writing this not as someone seeking pity, but as a mother who has no other choice but to speak.
Imagine holding your baby in the middle of the night, not because she cried, but because the world outside roared too loud for either of you to sleep. Imagine whispering bedtime stories not to lull her into dreams, but to keep the fear from settling into her tiny bones.
This is my life.
This is my daughter’s life.
And even now — especially now — I believe in softness. I believe in kindness. Because when everything else is taken from you, hope becomes the most valuable thing you have.
Why I’m Reaching Out Our home has been damaged. Our lives changed. But through it all, my daughter wakes up every morning with a smile. She reaches for me with trust, with love, with faith that I will keep her safe.
That’s why I keep going.
I’ve launched a campaign to ask for help — not because it’s easy, but because silence is no longer an option. I am asking for support not just for me, but for my baby, and for the quiet strength of so many mothers like me who are fighting, every single day, to hold their families together.
How You Can Help: 🤍 Help us restore parts of our home so we can live with dignity 🤍 Support women and mothers in Gaza with access to care and resources 🤍 Keep the light of hope alive for a generation born in the shadows of war
💛 If you can, please support our journey here:
If you can’t give, please consider sharing. Your voice might be the reason someone else hears ours.
From My Heart to Yours Maybe our lives are worlds apart. Maybe you’ve never lived through war. But if you’ve ever held a child and wished the world could be better for them — then you understand more than you know.
I don’t want my daughter to grow up thinking the world turned away.
Please, if you’ve read this far — thank you. Thank you for seeing us. Thank you for caring. We are still here. Still hoping. Still holding on to every kind act like it’s a lifeline.
Just a reminder that santa actually exists in the miraculous universe
I just watched El Toro de Piedra ! the animation seems to be even better in this episode ? I'd say it's on par with Climatiqueen which only excites me for what's coming next !!
The letter Gabriel addressed to Adrien broke my heart, I understand why Marinette didn't show it. I don't know if it's the best way to explain to him everything, especially since he doesn't express any regret in that letter about what he has done...The audacity to tell Adrien he should also pursue the miraculous lol ? But I feel like Adrien's getting closer to learning the truth
We also got a better understanding of the layout of his room. So the top floor is where he's supposed to sleep but since he's still figuring things out he didn't organise it yet.
I also love how this ep was constructed, the pacing was really good. First, the obvious parallel between Ivan and Adrien and their fathers. But also the fight sequence happening simultaneously with Juleka's song. They gave character dev/depth to not only Ivan but also Juleka, her singing was beautiful and I'm fully in love with her new look <3
ALSO can we talk about THE END SEQUENCE ? TF is that illuminati looking group ?? NATHALIE'S STILL EVIL ?? Look at thiiis
But it also makes sense, it was actually hinted and explains why Tomoe was collaborating with Gabriel. I remember her telling Gabriel in intuition "I want a better world".
But this also means that now we've got multiple grown ass billionaires beefing with Ladybug and Chat noir. Do you think Lila/Cerise is collaborating with them (which would bring her funding and support) as well, or is she working alone ?
the way he's looking at her

So real, I needed more of Adrien's inner monologue so badly that I'm doing it myself now 👩🦯 Adrien and his mess of a family are a current obsession of mine
I just feel like the writers don't understand that girl power doesn't mean making every male character of the show insignificant. Marinette still could've been the cool super OP protagonist without having Adrien be so robbed of screen time (like in Star vs the forces of evil, Star is the most important character of the show, but Marco gets his moments as well and is not deprived of his agency)
But don't get me wrong I still enjoy Miraculous, and I think the 6th season is actually pretty solid for now. I like it for what it is, but I also enjoy expanding on it !
A blank piece of paper
Adrien art inspired from Astruc's latest interview </3
I did 1 and a half assignments.
dude if they give felix a British accent in the french dub like they did with the grandparents, I won't be able to take him seriously
me with every 2010s show/anime I've ever watched tbh
accidentally stumbling upon something you used to love and finding you still feel the same way about it
This episode has done irreparable damage to my mind
thinking about the letter again...
@little-mari-on-a-roof 's tags on this post:
#his sacrifice in front of Marinette was already so fucked up #but knowing he had a backup plan is somehow even worse #and he definitely thought Nathalie had more time left than him (at least according to Intuition) #even in his letter he doesn't admit to all the wrong he did. he only says HE sacrified everything and that he was Monarque #he never talks about the pain he inflicted upon others #so even with his last words asking Marinette to not let him know about the villain he was #he doesn't actually write off Adrien finding and following the letter
This made me want to go check out Intuition again and... all this might be a stretch, but could this be the moment he decides to write this letter? Find a solution? And then he asks Adrien and he confirms that no, he doesn't have any adults that could replace his parents (a stupid thing to ask unless of course you don't know anything about your son)
I also added that dialogue from Recreation and I'm now convinced that it's only then that he remembers about the letter. The moment when Ladybug mentions "solution" for the second time and his face changes. And all the remorse about wasting his and Nathalie's life and fear of leaving Adrien alone, that I do believe was sincere at first (but like little-mari-on-a-roof said, no regrets about the villainy) is gone from his face. Ta-da!
Here is his solution. He promised Adrien that Nathalie would help him with his new task. So he heals her instead, since Gabriel himself keeps failing anyway. Nathalie was right and his use of Miraculous is condemning them. Fine! Perhaps Adrien will do a better job!
Also, well... Intuition is an episode that revolves around the power of Second Chance. Sooo.... makes sense if he found a backup plan right there. Adrien as his second chance...
Bonus points: in Recreation he knows Adrien would have to betray none other than Marinette to do that. Couldn't get rid of adrinette yourself? Lol just convince her to lie to him and him to betray her and let them do the rest! Another problem solved?
GUYS THE REVEAL IN THE RULER IS EXACTLY LIKE THE REVEAL IN EPHEMERAL I'M TWEAKING
Not kidding. I just checked and Nathaniel says almost exactly the same thing as Ladybug when she revealed herself as Marinette to Adrien :
"S'il-te plaît dit quelque chose" / "Please say something"
"Dis quelque chose" / "Say something"
This coupled with Lila/Cerise mentioning Nathaniel while writing means that there's a big chance this reveal will have consequences later in this season omg...She probably already has suspicions of him being Caprikid...
