I just finished watching Pretension, and it was phenomenal. While the episode soothed many of my worries, it also left me with so many questions. Yet there were things that were undeniable.
There was only one thing that the episode outlined crystal clear... CHOICE or the lack of it.
Gabriel promises Tomoe that he will regain control of Adrien... which is why it hurts when Adrien is unable to stand by Marinette's side as it's the first time he realizes that something is wrong. It's not that he is scared of betraying his father... it's that his body won't listen to him.
The fact that Gabriel literally offered Marinette the equivalent of an 'envelope of cash in exchange for leaving my son'.
Felix's words about sentibeings really broke me...but they held power, they truly reflected the oppression faced by him, Kagami, and Adrien... if you brink life into the world, you owe them a certain responsibility.
What truly horrified me were the ironies of the whole thing...
The way Gabriel gives Tomoe the ability to grant herself the power of choice only to take the very same away from her daughter...The way both Tomoe and Gabriel were shown to have a choice while Kagami and Adrien and even Felix weren't... as if they were less than living beings.
And finally, the way Gabriel said that he dictates what people buy.
The one thing I LOVED was Marinette standing up to our local uncooked prawn (gabe)

Why don't you kill me already?
Emotion absolutely blew me away! I have always loved Felix's character because of how multidimensional it was and this episode completely proved my point.
Felix genuinely loving Adrien and wanting to set him free and honestly breaking down when he realized that he may have hurt Marinette was so painful to watch... I really wanted to give him the biggest hug.
I did not expect to LOVE the Kagami/Felix dynamic as much as I did but i still think that now isnt the time for it and that it has too many red flags for now. I WOULD support it if Felix refuses to make decisions on behalf of Kagami and instead encourages her to be more confident in her own.
But there were things I absolutely adored and which can really form the base to grow their relationship.
Felix's extremely destroyed look after noticing the ring on Kagami's finger.
Felix calling Kagami 'his queen' which is something I TOTALLY see becoming a thing.
Her saying he has become more of the person she wanted him to be AAAHHHHH!!
Him teasing Kagami for being jealous but also part worried if he overstepped by kissing her hand (couple behavior 101)
Couples who fight together, stay together>>>>>> (yes, it's a friendly spar. No, It's not up for a debate)
Here's some Chat Noir! I honestly think he turned out the best, him and Alya are the only ones who's hands I'm confident with.
I toyed with the idea of making Adrien The Avatar, but I decided against it, making him the prince of the Northern Water Tribe instead.
Chat Noir to Adrien is a way to escape the pressures of his daily life and to practice some form of bending other than the (I don't know the word but they're essentially party tricks) forms that his father only lets him learn.
Adrien is in Ba Sing Se with Gabriel, Nathalie and The Gorilla for some diplomatic reason or other - it's not important. What is important is how he had accidentally joined Alya's small band of thieves as Chat Noir, on his first outing in the city.
From one of Alya's thieves he learns Actual Waterbending. I don't know who yet.
Marinette | Alya | Nino | Kagami | Luka | Juleka & Rose
"You!" he snarled, "You mewling ill-breed spawn of the devil. The fair lady of scarlet, with eyes as pools of indigo, and lips of roses, you do not deserve to speak in her presence, nay even cast thine swampy green gaze upon her. Her effortless beauty. Her endless and perfect grace and elegance."
Ladybug paused, her arm posed to throw her yo-yo as she stared back at the Akuma. Chat's heart nearly choked him with joy as she frowned, unimpressed with the show.
This hadn't been the first time Marinette kissed Chat noir. As Ladybug, she had kissed him on serval occasions, mainly to save his sorry butt from the effects of one Akuma or another, but this was the first time she had done it as Marinette. Half of the time, and silly little Chat hadn't even remembered.
The scent of cinnamon and almond frosting wafted through the air along with a few leaves. Adrien did his best to ignore the way his heart skipped at the way she smiled at her old sketches and tried to focus on something else.
chapter eight! the last chapter! aghhhhhhh!!!!!
Marinette was sitting on her roof again waiting for something. The wind swept by and made her shiver. She was hooded in a blanket as she looked at the night sky. It wasn’t like she was waiting for chat noir to show up or anything, she told herself. No, she was just taking a break from all her sewing things. She had been working on a cloak, but her fingers would not respond to her commands and caused her to mess up serval times. That gave her a reasonable excuse to take a break and sit out here and let her thoughts wander.
Little chat noir doodle to start my morning.
I’d like to steal his coffee
Sorry Adrien that’s my phone...
So adrien is shorter than luka....
But like why did chat blanc take place in the VSCO dimension?
Natalie really gave adrien false hope by giving him Marinette gift in bubbler.
In the episode we saw how Gabriel straight up ignored him on his birthday and only said something to him when Adrien did something wrong. And Natalie giving him that gift made him think that his father really cared about him smh. Gabriel also gave him false hope because he lied to Natalie about asking her to get a gift.
Are we gonna talk about how our hero squad had their identities revealed in miracle queen? Alya and Nino were training so hard and they just got exposed.
I feel like everyone is saying adrien needs his happiness, but I feel like everyone just needs to let him be sad and feel the way he wants for once and let his emotions go. He is always forced into be happy around everyone and it’s probably so tiering, everyone just needs to let our boi relax. He’s always pressured into being happen like the expectations from everyone else that he is always happy and that he can’t be any other way. 😔 He has to let go of all his bottled up emotions before he can be happy.
Just in case you guys were wondering, YES! I do art. Epic isn’t it, I’ve been trying to draw chat blanc but he is kinda hard to draw had to get the right expression. (Open it for better quality)
Chat noir: You spend way to much time on your phone, you know that?
Alya: ok boomer
Petition to make gorilla Adriens new father
LOOK WHAT HE DID! THIS IS DISGUSTING! SOMONE CALL CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES ON GABRIEL! HE DID THIS TO HIS SON AND MARINETTE FOR AN AKUMA! This is a new low, he literally forced marinette to break up with him and made him cry. Nah. I hope Gabriel can catch hands just like he catches butterflies.
The fact that chat was the literal last one on earth is so sad. He was just sitting their mumbling to himself! MY POOR BABY 😭 he was so lonely 😭
Gabriel: my son is chat noir!! 🤯
Not even 0.2 seconds later: 😏 boutta akumitize and torture him
LIKE WHAT WHAT KIND OF FATHER BS IS THIS!!
Chat blanc spoilers
So this episode is saying that whatever happened in Felix killed the love square? I feel like I’m dying after watching that
I am finished, my life is over and I will never be able to do anything ever again if this episode exists.
CHAT BLANC THEORY
What if chat turns into chat blanc because hawkmoth/his dad (and since in the ad thier identities were basically revealed) got mad at him for destroying the akuma that was gonna akumatize marinette and turned him into chat blanc as punishment and now controls him. ಥ_ಥ
The finale is nothing compared to chat blanc and the episode hasn’t even come out 😭
There are so many little details even in the ad that revealed so much, it’s so hard to process and put all the pieces together.
