    Summary

    Wild was an enigma for many reasons, with the most noticeable being his hero's title. Or rather, lack thereof. That was not to say that he didn't deserve to hold the title of hero, for he was just as courageous as the other 'heroes.' No, Wild lacked a title on account of the fact that his purpose had yet to be fulfilled.

    Unlike the other heroes, Wild hadn't defeated a great evil, or saved a princess, or even overcome some personal hardship. He was a kid, whisked away from his land in the middle of his knight training. After just under a year of traveling with the heroes from his story books, Wild was pulled back to his own Hyrule to finally earn his name.

    Months passed by without word on his condition, with hope of Wild's return slowly shrinking in the hearts of the other heroes. And once all hope had faded away, they found themselves in a Hyrule of ruin.

    And Wild’s name began to make sense.

    Summary

    He loves with a passion that bleeds into his actions, never his words. You can see it in how he doesn’t make a sound. How he’s seemingly on the cusp, tethering dangerously on the knife’s edge. You’re nothing but a stranger to him and yet he looks at you like you’re the most precious thing in the world.

    That woman is lucky, you think—to be loved by someone as devastatingly devoted as Artem Wing.

    Or, a pretty man with a white-collar job takes you back home with him for the night. You certainly don’t regret the experience.

    Summary

    “Take me with you. Please.”

    He stares along with an unreadable look – blue eyes shining in the dark as he watches you clutch onto the fabric of his shirt.

    “If you come with me, you’ll never be able to go back,” he tells you up front. “You okay with that?”

    In hindsight, maybe running away with a complete stranger isn’t far up in the best decisions you’ve made in life – archons know you’ve only made a few of those. Just because he showed you an ounce of kindness, doesn’t mean he’s a good person.

    Still, the answer comes to you quite easily.

    Or, you’re a hostess that’s drowning in debt, and Ajax is a man with too many secrets to keep. Making a clean break for it isn’t as easy as you’d hoped.

    Summary

    Childe isn’t so deluded to think he can have Lumine all to himself. Not when every single idol in this agency adores her. But the awareness does nothing to alleviate the flickers of jealousy that ripple across his entire being, and the best he can do is grit his teeth and remind himself that he has absolutely no right to be jealous in the first place.

    He’s an idol. She’s his producer.

    And that’s all there is to it!

    These sorry excuses for comrades, however, don’t seem to harbor the same sentiments!

    Or, Teyvat’s most charming idol is too stubborn to admit he has a crush on their producer, and the entire agency is fed up.

    Summary

    He was halfway through with the assigned activities when he first heard it. He thought he was imagining things, if his sleep deprivation had genuinely made him go mad. But no, there it was again. It was the call of his name, but not the name that Marinette would normally say.

    “Chat,” Marinette muttered again.

    crack lol XD this gives me kaguya-sama vibes and I love it

    cracky identity reveal shenanigan's through sleep talking. I just love adrien mkay.

    ----------
    I relate to this scene lmao

    "Is that... coffee?" Adrien turned around in his seat, looking at Marinette, no looking at her coffee, with stars in his eyes.

    "Back off, Agreste, this coffee is mine." Marinette glared at him.

    "Please, Marinette?" He looked up at her, eyes pleading. Her heart begged for her to give him the coffee. She could always get more, and Adrien was so cute looking like that!

    "No." She deadpanned, taking another drink. Sleep deprivation: 1, Crush: 0

    ---------

     

     

    Psychology way of thinking I relate, overthinking

    Marinette narrowed her eyes. She didn't trust him, but it did sound like a pretty good deal to her. The only problem is if Adrien would keep his word. Oh, what is she talking about? Adrien would totally keep his word! Unless he thought not keeping it was the better option...

    'Ugh, too much thinking, I'm too tired.' 

    Marinette placed her head on the desk to think, not to sleep, to think. The difference is very important.

    Hmm, if she took a nap, then she would get to sleep. And if Adrien woke her up, she would still get to talk to him! But what about getting an A+ on the project? And the movie? And Emma, Louis, and Hugo? And the hamster? She couldn't just abandon them! No, she must resist! She must...

    Adrien's chuckle and wish for sweet dreams was the last thing she heard before drifting off into an easy sleep.

    Sleep deprivation: 2, Crush: 1

    ****

    His face turned into a bright red, matching the suit that, apparently, the girl sleeping next to him ran around in.

    Marinette was Ladybug! Ladybug was Marinette! He finally knew and it was the girl he dreamed it was all along and everything is perfect and-

    Oh shit, Marinette was going to kill him when she woke up!

    He knew the one thing he wasn’t supposed to know!

    Summary

    Catwalker is adored by his teammates, and why shouldn't he be? After all, he's nothing like Chat Noir, and Adrien knows exactly what Nino and Ladybug think about that failed former hero.

    Everyone is much happier without Chat Noir.

    Especially Adrien Agreste.

    He gets to have everything that he ever wanted.

    *A doubtlessly non-canon story based on the premise that Chat Noir is replaced permanently by Adrien as “Catwalker,” who acts exactly like Adrien Agreste (tm) in a mask.*

    In the days after the events of their second battle with Glaciator, Adrien has come to realize that there are types of friendships he's been missing out on in his daily life. If helping Marinette with plans for 'Buttercup' could earn him that friendship as Chat Noir, then who knows what it could do coming from Adrien Agreste.

    It couldn't hurt to try, right?

    Awwwwwww

    really cute fanfic after Puppeteer 2 The Adrien Statue Kiss scene. I really love this, it's so cute it's so sweet it's so romantically fluffy hehehe, I keep smiling. I just really love the whole vibe of this fic. I really enjoyed reading this awwwwwww

    I love Adrien so much in this, I LOVE THIS BRAND OF ADTIEN AGRESTE. I love this kinda Adrien characterization hehe. Adrien is a cinnamon roll, Hot mess adrien Agreste being so cute and innocent and naive and just trying to get his good friend Marinette to kiss him as proof of their friendship. Adrien "just a friend" Agreste. Adrien being obliviously pining over Marinette then realizing his feelings. Kinda reverse lovesquare. Adrien SIMPS

    also I just really love Adrien being obsessed with kissing Marinette in a "platonic friendly" way

     

     

    psychology friends normal things to do

    “Dude, what was that about?” Nino asked.

    Adrien slunk down in his seat. “I was just joking.”

    “You need to work on your jokes,” Nino replied, raising an eyebrow.

    “I made Marinette cry,” he mumbled.

    “She’ll be fine,” Nino assured him. “You know how she is. She gets in her own head too much sometimes.”

    Marinette eventually returned to the classroom, but refused to look at Adrien as she took her seat.

    --------
    Adrien sat ramrod straight in his seat, staring straight ahead as the wheel turned. It was…bizarre. Unlike him.

    Marinette glanced down to see his knuckles white as he clutched at the seat, and she remembered suddenly – Adrien doesn’t like small spaces.

    “Adrien,” she murmured. She bumped her hand into his. “It’s okay. Just breathe.”

    He slowly let out a long breath as he held onto her hand, interlacing their fingers. Marinette took slow, deep breaths with him. She could freak out about the hand-holding later, but right now, Adrien needed her.

    “You could have said something,” she said. “I would’ve waited on the ground with you if you didn’t want to be in here.”

    Neither Marinette manage to hide a second staggering shock when she discovers that Adrien is wearing the very same device, for the very same reason; his father's senseless request to fix his already perfect teeth.

    Aka the fic with an awkward, funny reveal full of self-indulgence, comfort and fluff.

    cute way to reveal lol, also calm identity reveal which is nice

    ....

    I just really loved the part with chat noir giving advice about boys to Marinette lol, especially the "boys are gross, even your buttercup. stop putting him on a pedestal, boysh will be boysh" that was cute lol also I kept imagining my crush and Adrien fusion, very nice visual.

    also, Adrien saying "I'm buttercup huh" was really nice hehe, I love Adrien

     

    psychology... hard difficult times, the feeling okay with others but depressed when alone/night... same like me... poor adrien

    His Lady's words had cheered him up a little, yet the soothing feeling didn't last long once he found himself alone in the dark... 

    As soon as the hero had left his partner, he'd started brooding again over the fact that his father had gone too far with such drastic measures.

    The room goes so quiet he can hear Kaminari and Sero playing video games two doors down, and very quickly he realizes his mistake.

    (Or: Izuku's friends find out something about his past and know better than to leave it alone.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    awwww.... good wholesome Gen oneshot about deku accidentally sharing a bit of his traumatic past, and the group being worried over him. good friends wholesome friendship tm with satisfying self-indulgent attention spotlight on izuku and hurt/comfort by friends.

    also. psychology normal friends psychology life things normal things to do. also I related to Todoroki like in the confused "am I cat/dog person" scene since I'm also slow and confused and quiet and Blunt like him. Also I related to Izuku's way of overthinking...?

     

    “Do I seem like more of a cat person or a dog person?” Izuku spares a moment from his English worksheet to glance over at Todoroki, who posed the question. He has to hold back a snicker when he sees how concentrated the other boy is on his phone, different colored eyebrows furrowed together. 

    Shinsou looks up from his book as well, a flicker of amusement crossing his normally passive features. “Neither. You’re a fish person.”

    “Really?” Todoroki frowns as Uraraka throws a pillow at Shinsou.

    “Don’t listen to him, Todoroki-kun! You’re a cat person, through and through.”

    “Uraraka, you should not be throwing things in other people’s rooms, especially not Midoriya’s. There are valuable collectables in here!” Iida starts gesturing with his hands, and briefly Izuku thinks that’s probably more of a threat to his stuff than the thrown pillow. 

    “It’s fine, Iida,” he says, laughing. “And I agree with Uraraka. Cat all the way.”

    Todoroki stares at him for a long moment. Then, slowly, he blinks.

    There’s a few seconds of silence before Shinsou says, “I guess you’re right,” and everyone bursts into laughter. Todoroki just looks confused, but the conversation moves on.

     

     

    Eventually Izuku turns back to his work, focusing his mind on the long list of irregular verbs (seriously, who created this language and was their intention to torture poor Japanese hero students specifically?) instead of his friends in the background. At least, until Tsuyu chimes in.

    Uraraka sounds genuinely upset, and it’s enough to pull at least a little bit of Izuku’s attention, even as he tries to figure out why feed becomes fed but feel becomes felt . 

     

     

    Izuku tries not to flinch (...) and doubles down on his efforts to focus on his studies. 

     

    His mind is half on the worksheet, half in the conversation, so when he hears the concern and anxiety in Uraraka’s voice, the words slip out before he can truly stop to think things through.

     

    “Deku-kun,” Uraraka starts slowly, like maybe she didn’t hear him right. “Did someone...did someone tell you to kill yourself?”

    His shoulders tense. Something deep inside him, something old and faded but always there (like scar tissue, he thinks) tells him he should just leave. Go so he doesn’t have to tell them. So they can’t reject him for his weakness, or worse. 

    Quickly, he forces that thought from his head. They’re not like that, he knows them, it’s fine . He turns to face them, avoiding their gazes, and wrings his hands nervously. 

    “Um, yes?” He tries to force a bit of casualness, his usual cheeriness, into his voice. When he accidentally meets Iida’s eyes and sees the mixture of shock and horror there, though, he figures it probably didn’t work

     

    “What do you mean?” All heads swivel to Todoroki, whose piercing gaze is still fixed on Izuku. “By ‘weren’t always nice about it’? What did they do?”

    “Todoroki,” Uraraka hisses a warning at the other boy before turning back to him. “Deku, you don’t have to—”

    “It’s okay,” he says (lies).

     

    The other boy shrugs, unbothered. “That’s what Uraraka says anytime one of us is complaining about someone else.”

    “But—” he scrubs at his face, groaning “—she’s not serious, Todoroki. When she says that, she’s just joking. Were you joking?”

     

     

    (The problem is, Izuku doesn’t know if that’s good enough. What does it matter if Bakugou’s trying to become a better person when the damage has already been done? But then, what right does Izuku have to stand in his way? What, because he called Izuku a few names and shoved him around a bit, Bakugou can never be a good person, a good hero? That’s—that’s the problem, he has too many conflicting feelings about this to ever truly—)

     

    “I just stopped crying, Uraraka!” 

    “It’s okay,” she says with a giggle, pulling gently at his hands so they’re looking each other in the eyes again. “That’s one of the things we love about you, Deku!” (And isn’t that strange—someone loving him for the things that had Bakugou calling him a loser for only a year ago?)

    Summary

    OLD VERSION! BEING REWRITTEN HERE.

    Trost District is lost to the Titans, but Wall Rose is not. The Armored Titan prepares itself to breach the inner gate but abruptly halts in its tracks, turning and vanishing into thin air.

    One of the Survey Corps's raw recruits, Eren Jaeger, is one of the cadets that witness this perplexing behavior up-close. With growing fears that the Titans may be capable of human intelligence, it's the discovery of his power to control the man-eating beasts that kindles humanity's hope for true victory.

    (In which Eren is not a Shifter that awakens his abilities after a near-death experience, but rather someone that unlocks a power much more coveted and dangerous: the Coordinate.)

    Summary

    When Adrien starts showing more interest in Marinette, it should feel like a dream come true. And it would, except one thing keeps nagging at her:

    “Adrien doesn’t flirt,” Marinette proclaimed, ignited in the way one only was moments after several revelations had clicked into place. “Not with me and not with anyone else either. He never did any of this with Kagami, not even when they were dating. This is weird, Alya. Even if Adrien did just wake up one day with a crush on me—which I doubt—he wouldn’t be acting like this!”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Really really nice short one-shot of misunderstandings identity shenanigans. Nice funny fluff

    I just really really love Adrien here lol, I really love the vibes, it reminds me of good romantic shirbert stuff. Smitten Adrien Agreste pining I love him so much. Like Marinette monologuing that *Adrien* would never flirt and being such a kind dork with the whole Adrien asking Mari to carry her bag scene, and also Adrien being dorky and complimenting Marinette on her hydrated cuticles
