Sabine Dupain Cheng - Tumblr Posts
Marinette, *holding a coffee pot*: What if, instead of milk in my cereal, I put coffee...
Sabine, *taking the pot from her*: What if you didn't
Sabine: We're having a baby
Adrien: Oh, congratu-
Sabine: * slamming adoption papers onto the tabel*
Tom: It's you, sign here, please
Okay but Sabine looks so cool.... how does she get akumatized though-- was it just something that built up iver the months/years??
seeing Marinette become miserable on and off in bursts of sadness and apathy is a lot to see anyone do, especially your own child. how do you express that? how can you handle seeing someone who, you’ve dipped your hands and heart into their growth, you’ve adored their every mistake and success, you made them and you love them, and now they’re devastatingly alone, being attacked by a terrorist in a mask because she’s as strong as you taught her to be?
how do you handle that?
eventually, in a moment of worry, Sabine slips.
(don’t worry too much.) (she’s not stupid.)
Marinette got her spunk from somewhere.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
Hawkmoth is beginning to have regrets, Stage One
Marinette's family is definitely rich
The building they own is five stories tall
The bakery is on the first floor
Her parent’s room and a bathroom is on the second floor
The third floor is the living room and a dining room
Marinette’s room is the entire fourth floor
Lastly, the balcony is on the fifth floor
Their house/building is also next to the Eiffel Tower, which is a super popular tourist destination. Not to mention that France is an expensive place to live in and their building is around a very nice place. The bakery is very popular as well. In the Christmas special, we can see that the bakery gets a ton of customers which includes the mayor and a famous news reporter. Jagged Stone also filmed a special in that episode which gave them even more publicity.
Marinette has a complete set of gadgets (computer, phone, tablet/iPad, etc.) and thousands of dollars worth of sewing supplies, which is not cheap at all.
They also have a lot of famous connections. Marinette’s mom is best friends with a famous news reporter and trust Marinette enough to babysit her only child. A famous rock star chose Marinette to design his album cover when his career was in trouble because of XY. Not to mention that cover that Marinette designed got the number one spot. Jagged Stone even chose their bakery to film his special episode on. Marinette has tons of connections on her own as well but that’s for another discussion. Lastly, Marinette’s uncle is a world-famous chef, so they probably have even more connections that we don’t even know about.
Another thing is that Marinette’s grandmother travels the world full time. Traveling is expensive so that’s another point for them being rich. Marinette’s grandmother also doesn’t seem like the type of person to accept money from her sons. So where would the money come from?
One last thing is the school that Marinette attends. That school is full of children with rich and influential parents. Juleka’s mom used to be a famous rock star who played alongside Jagged Stone. Alya is the daughter of a well-known chef and her sister is a famous wrestler. Alix’s dad is a famous historian. Mylene’s dad is an actor. Lastly, Chloe is the daughter of the mayor and a famous fashion designer/critique and they own a famous hotel branch as well. We also know that Chloe’s family would not send their only daughter to a public school or some random private school. Nope, they would only send Chloe to the best school in Paris. Plus, Chloe would throw a big tantrum if she wasn’t sent to a very expensive private school. It also makes sense since Adrien attends that school. Gabriel Agreste would not let Adrien attend some random public school. Especially since he wants Adrien to maintain the perfect Agreste image.
So yeah, I’m convinced that the Dupain-Cheng’s are rich. Who knows, they might even have more money than Chloe and Adrien but, they’re just more humble about it. Who knows? This would also prove my theory of Marinette being famous or/and an influencer to be true.
Due to the serious underpayment the voice actors of Miraculous Ladybug are getting (despite the high popularity of the show), Joe Ochman, the English VA of Mayor Bourgeois has left the show and will be replaced in Season 5. On top of that, the reason SAMG will be no longer animating Miraculous episodes also has to due with being underfunded. SAMG is known in the fandom for animated some of the best episodes in terms of animation like Crocoduel and Strike Back. Mind you, if they can afford to make The Awakening Movie with a budget over 100 million dollars, then they can afford to give their employees a fair pay. Please check out and sign this petition made by Sydney Satalino to protest against this. Also make sure to share this on as many social media accounts as you can with the hashtag #ZagPayUp. Let's be the heroes that Miraculous Ladybug inspired us to become.
So we all saw that clip from Brazil, right?
I am ALL here for supportive parents and Marichat, but also… Tom pls
