I Am So Happy That In TYoOL 2021 I Was Able To Find More People My Age Still Into ML. I Was On The Hype

I am so happy that in TYoOL 2021 I was able to find more people my age still into ML. I was on the hype train from the very beginning with some buddies but fell out of the fandom around s2 due to irl stuff. Due to someone I followed way back in the day starting to post again I recently rediscovered my love for the show and I have been scouring Tumblr for people to follow since.

Anyways guess what I'm saying is thanks for being cool and I love your art style! If you have any follow recommendations for the ML fandom I'd love to hear them~

Aw this makes me happy! And thank you so much for the kind words 🥺

Here are some great people in the ML fandom! I was gonna divide them out by artist/fic writer/gifer/meta writer/memer, etc., but most people wear many hats lol so here's just like a good starter pack (some of these blogs are multifandom but still post a lot of ML and some aren’t currently active but have a lot of great content you can look at!)

ephemeral prediction: after seeing marinette get hurt, adrien will fight off his akumatization. since she’s too injured to fight, he’ll have to borrow her miraculous. mister bug puts up a good fight, but shadowmothnoir is just too powerful. adrien realizes that this timeline can’t be saved, and unifies tikki and fluff.

it’s up to bugs bunny to save the day

*includes ramble on my justification for why I thought this was Felix

This whole time I kept thinking about how this must be Felix somehow in possession of the black cat miraculous and I went about justifying it by noting how the little details on his costume sort of parallel (not even that, they just look similar) Cat Noir's costume and how it initially resembles it but upon closer inspection it doesn't. The bodice looks like a more "upper class" design compared to CN as felix's has "buttons" and resembles something like mid-18th century upperclassmen jackets and that the belt for the tail is similar to CN but looks more "neater" I guess? This goes along with the overall design of the character too. Cat Noir's costume didn't look unrefined or sloppy, or too overly embellished or anything like that (apart from the messy hair to hide the ears), but compared to "Felix's" costume, Felix's just looks different yet similar enough as to why I drew my theory around this character model being for Felix somehow.

BUT YOU ARE TELLING ME THERE IS A CHANCE THIS COULD BE A CHARACTER MODEL FOR

ADRIEN'S SON?!?

(Upon closer inspection the words say: Chat Noir's SIZE.)

I still hold onto my theory that this is Felix in some way, he is immediately who I thought of first.

Guys it literally says “Chat Noir’s Son” on the middle left there why are we arguing about this

It’s interesting how Glaciator 2.0 again showed that there is a big wall between Adrinette at the moment, caused by the fact that Marinette is too caught up in her own crush to really see Adrien for who he is.

Specifically, her reaction to seeing Adrien be sad is more “awesome, I can enact my plan!” than sympathy. And when her plan goes wrong because she picked the wrong gift, she never pauses to notice that Adrien was really happy to get a pottery wheel from her, even if it was unusual.

The frustrating (and fun!) thing is that it was all so close to working. It already did work, back in Gamer, when she gave him her lucky charm! If Marinette hadn’t been so caught up in her fantasy, if she had looked at the actual Adrien and his actual feelings, she could have absolutely made his day here. In fact, she did end up cheering him up immeasurably when he was wearing black and she had stopped with all the schemes and was just herself.

This matches e.g. Malediktator. Marinette was so focused on the fact that Adrien looked hot in the ad to see how it was distressing him. Her crush is in the way of her actually seeing him.

Even though it’s popular, I would not describe that as her putting him on a pedestal. She is not in love with the model and the image (at least not just); she is aware that he’s a real human boy who sometimes feels sad and frustrated. However, she is too much in her own headspace to really see what’s happening with him. And that is, in various shapes and forms, the defining factor in the Adrinette relationship right now.

omg I just noticed something

Alright so Glaciator 2.0 ended with Adrien like this

[The image shows Adrien saying “Maybe if I show her who I truly am, she would fall in love with me!”]

And in Ephemeral, this is gonna happen

[Image shows Chat Noir giving his umbrella to Ladybug]

That’s exactly what he’s doing! He’s being himself! And I think it’s gonna work! LB will either start catching feeling (after all that’s what made Marinette fall for Adrien in the first place) OR she will connect the dots!
