First, i’d like to say that i copied one of my youtube comments so if you somehow see that comment know that i didn’t steal anything :)
Ok, i had to write this, even if no one is going to see. i can understand why people are mad at adrien as he is repeatedly calling marinette "just a friend". but i feel like y'all are forgetting how adrien didn't have a proper childhood. he didn't have any friends (except chloe) and so didnt know what friendship actually is. if we think about her female friends there are just: alya, marinette, kagami and ladybug. he is already in love w/ ladybug. probably he thinks that the reason why he feels different with alya and marinette is because alya has a bf. also till kagami turned to oni-chan and confessed her love to adrien, he was probably seeing her as a friend too. so what i try to say is he doesnt now what a proper friendship is. thats' why he keeps saying she's just a friend. also i have to add this too: marinette is one of his first friends so even if he knows that he has some small feelings deep inside himself, he is afraid that he can be interpreting them wrong and can end up with ruining one of the first friendships that he had. yes, that was it! i wish you understood what i tried to say cuz its kinda complex.
I am so sorry if there are some grammar mistakes but hope you can understand what i am trying to say here.
I found it so interesting in S2EP9 of Miraculous Ladybug, the ice creams Andre chose for Adrian and Marinette.
Marinette’s ice cream had a red cherry (for his lips), mint ice cream (for his eyes), and some unnamed base (which I’m guessing is supposed to represent his hair - so maybe homemade vanilla? Or pineapple or banana or lemon... Though I’d like to think it’s honey :3 ).
Adrian’s ice cream had strawberry with chips of dark chocolate ice cream (for her costume), blackberry ice cream (for her hair) and blueberry ice cream (for her eyes), and topped with a red cherry that apparently has no significance.
What I found so interesting it that Andre chose combinations that represented the version our two lovebirds are infatuated with.
Marinette is in love with the non superhero version - Adrian. So her ice cream represents the object of her affection that she perceives (AKA, not Chat Noir, so there’s no black).
With Adrian, he’s in love with Ladybug - the superhero. His ice cream flavors are meant to reflect Ladybug’s appearance, not Marinette’s (otherwise I think that bottom layer would be pink instead of red).
Though ultimately, which side is the true version of each protagonist? And are they each falling in love with the person at their core, or just the facade? Just some things I wonder about :3
“Two Ladybugs? I’m in heaven!” -Cat Noir
I just love the looks on everyone’s faces here: priceless!
Cat is just so totally happy/overwhelmed that he’s now got double his love, while Ladybug...
Not really sure if they’re looking at Cat Noir or each other, but I love how their expressions are so different from each other.
Marinette #2 (the one on the left - the non time traveler), is giving off a look of “oh my gosh, seriously? What incredibly inappropriate thing he is thinking of now?”
While Marinette #1 (the one of the right - the one that traveled in time), has a sort of bored “Ah, there he is with the jokes again. But at least he’s alive, so I guess I can let it go this time.” Because she’s the one that witnessed him sacrifice his life for her. She’s bound to be less annoyed with him as #2 (who has no knowledge of what he did - or what he’s capable of doing).
Or at least those are my thoughts ;3
