    Summary

    Adrien has mastered the art of the smile. Even while his mind is on poor behavior, when he's caught beneath a barrage of unkind thoughts to himself, he's still able to keep his smile. Attend his friends' parties, maintain small talk, get through the day — and hopefully his friends won't realize how messed up he really is.

    Everyone is out-pacing him. While he's barely getting out of bed in the morning, his friends are making waves, changing lives, getting engaged.

    He can't even get his girlfriend to text him back.

    So, sure. Maybe he's not in the best head space right now — but 'suicidal'? Ladybug's certainly just reading too deeply into things. But if her concern for Chat Noir's mental state is enough to get her reaching out, well, he won't turn down the opportunity to chat with a friend. Besides, Ladybug seems to be having a rough go of it, too. Maybe they can help each other out.

    (a Ladynoir hurt/comfort texting fic, with established Adrienette)

    Summary

    Marinette and Adrien were supposed to be the dream team: best friends and skating partners, a perfect match both on and off the ice.
    But when Adrien abruptly leaves and gets a new skating partner, Marinette vows to show him just what he missed out on and become a champion all on her own.
    Years later, an injury takes Marinette out of the competitive circuit, draining her of sponsors and confidence. Just when she’s about to give up, a certain skater is in need of a new partner and he’s requesting one person: her.
    If they want to become a gold medal team, they’ll have to work through their grievances or the past will keep them, and their Olympic goals, apart forever.
