Lil Light Practice With My Marinette Redesign :)

One word...CHAOS. Daily chaos on the Agreste household.

In here, Adrien is a year younger than in the Werepapas flashback. This time I tried a more colourful approach.

Nothing like drawing some smiles to heal the heart... to then BREAK IT WITH MORE ANGST AND DRAMA (saved for the next comic)

you will not replace me

HEYAAA I'm streaming now on twitch !

Being a student while having a hyperfixation is hell, wdym I have to prep for my upcoming exam instead of making art of the characters from the silly kids show

Just rewatched Revelator but in french, and holy shit I'll never say enough how much I LOVE the french dub. Maybe it's because it's the one I grew up with but it always hits hard (and the cat puns were always better in french norry not sorry). Watching without the subtitles felt like a whole other experience.

Like hearing Marinette saying Adrien makes her melt in this dub, and the conversation between Alya and Marinette feels much more powerful !

Also hearing "Miraculous Chat Noir" feels unreal. Btw, I don't get why people think that Chat Noir's power is only abt erasing memory ? From what I understand, it can destroy any damage that has been done by an akuma, while Ladybug's power allows her to restore things to their past state.

I gotta make fanart of this episode. It's one of my favorites so far 😭 I just never commit to finishing anything I've started lol

I took a peek at the tag after watching the new episode and I feel like some aren't getting what the theme this season seems to be, so I feel like wording this out

We haven't seen much but the theme is secrets, lies and truths.

(spoilers for revelator below)

While it has been a theme throughout the whole show, this season is making it even more prominent by having Marinette struggling with all of it and having Lila/Cerise/whatever her real name is as the main villain.

We know that Marinette hates liars and it is hard for her to continue to lie because it is weighing her down; she wants Adrien to know but it's hard and doesn't want him to be hurt by the truth. Lila, on the other hand, has no trouble with lying, in fact she states that she tells lies because it's what people want to hear, she seems to do it in order to gain power and so far she only wants to make a wish and that all her akumas are related to Marinette in any way, making it seem like she is the root of all her problems.

Now, Alya has a way lower tolerance for lies than Marinette has (which isn't a bad thing about her to have a tolerance to them, people are multifaceted and her being like that shows she's a well rounded and complex character) and she's rightfully angry because this is a HUGE lie, she did not only lie to all of Paris, but she lied to Adrien. The thing is that it is easy to be angry when you don't have the whole context, Alya doesn't know what happened, what went down at the mansion and only had one of the crucial bits of information but not the whole picture. Now her memory is erased because Chat got a power up (my boy grows!!!) yet we also got to see her saying that it was not her place on handling this secret and that it was Ladybug who should fix it right before that.

We see her later telling Marinette that whatever the secret is she's there for her whenever she's ready to tell it and then worrying if their friendship is okay. I think their friendship will be okay because i have hope for them and hope for Marinette finding the right way to tell Adrien (theories and headcanons aside because i want angst lol).

Truth finds a way and while people like to shit on this show's writing i actually love how they handle things and how consistent they are on the themes.

God this man continues to piss me off even when he's dead

In the light of the very recent episode I think we as the fandom must understand now that Gabriel telling Marinette to "make sure that Adrien remembers him as a good father" was specifically just so Adrien would continue his last will more willingly as the new Monarch by making everyone singing Gabe's praises taking away his blame while also setting up everyone who knows the truth as liars so Adrien can channel his anger through them and not him with him no longer being present too. Gabriel specifically set Marinette up to fight her own boyfriend and end their romance while still extending his control over Adrien. Damn what a douchebag

Luka was the biggest cuck fr lmao

luka going "THATS NOT A SECRET 😠" when people tell him that marinette has a crush on Adrien WHILE LUKE WAS DATING HER will never not be funny

I'm not sure I agree with Adrien being made of "love", but just the idea of him developing a power to rebel against his father..I love it I need to make it into an actual thing

Don't have many ideas of what it could be though, so I'll have to think about it. I mean, why make multiple characters be sentibeings without giving them any cool extra abilities ? That would be sick as fuck

Sentimonsters are beings made from a single emotion and Adrien's emotion is heavily implied to be love. Sentimonsters can also have any random power the writers decide to give them and have been established to sometimes get powers their creators didn't intend (see Feast). That is the ultimate setup to use the power of love to empower Adrien and yet the show gives us nothing.
