    Summary

    When his brothers get it in their head that Damian Wayne needs more friends his own age (and species), he is unwittingly signed up for a Pen Pal website. He is matched with a girl in Paris who manages to worm her way into his heart, whether he likes it or not.

    Even though Marinette Dupain-Cheng has little time already, she decides that the best way to improve her English-speaking skills before going off to university is to sign up for a Pen Pal website. With all the hype she has heard from Alya, she is excited to make a new friend while expanding her resume. What she doesn't expect is to be matched with a gruff boy who wants nothing to do with her.

    Through pain, comfort, growth, and villains, they learn to rely on those that love them, and fall in love with each other in the process.

    Summary

    Damian looks at his notebook, scanning his research.

    Combining what info the internet has provided on good romantic partners, along with some of his own preferences, she’s statistically the best option.

    “Hm. Yes, you will do.”

    “Oh! Uhh… what?...”

    Damian’s family are pestering him to be more of a normal teenager. He doesn’t want to be more of a normal teenager. The average teens he observes at school are brainless savages. But his family is getting so annoying about it he’d do almost anything to get them to shut up.

    Then Marinette Dupain-Cheng transfers to his school. She’s intelligent, quiet, respectful of his boundaries— generally acceptable.

    His family want normal teen behavior? Fine. He’ll bring a girlfriend home.

    “Will you be my girlfriend?”

    Marinette blinks. Ya know what? This might as well happen.

    “Sure.”

     

    Daminette as told through equally socially unaware messes, general misunderstandings of each other's skill and experience, and a total lack of awareness as to how many flowers are too many flowers.

    Summary

    After the defeat of Hawkmoth and the retirement of Suhan, Marinette’s life is just getting crazier. She doesn’t know how a soulmate could ever fit into her life, and sometimes she thinks the two letters on her wrist are just the universe’s joke to her, but she knows better than to bank on it. Her soul mark isn’t even a word. Who is going to say “Tt” to her?

    Summary

    Hi everybody, this is a sad notification.

    For those of you who do not know, I have decided to Orphan this series because of my mental health. If you’ve read my last author’s notes, you know how my life kinda blew up and I need to get back on my feet. I’m taking a break from fanfiction. If anything every changes, I will attach an update through the works inspired by I am What Keeps the World from Falling. Please don’t hold your breath though.
    I am so incredibly sorry for this. All my loyal fans have been amazing, but I need to do this. I can not appreciate you all enough. Thank you so much. I know I said I would finish this work, but I simply can’t and I’m sorry.

    I’m signing off one final time
    Please take care of yourselves
    (And comment because I will check up on that :))
    Thank you, goodbye, sorry

    Summary

    Paris has been suffering for five years under the reign of an emotional terrorist, and no one even knows. Thanks to both the Government's media censorship and the Miraculous' magic, news of Paris' predicament has never reached further than the city's outskirts, and so Ladybug and her partners have been left to fight against Hawkmoth alone.

    After her attempts to contact the Justice League have went unanswered for years, Marinette has all but lost hope. That is, until her class partakes in a pen-pal project with students all across the world - and hers just so happens to be a boy from Gotham, home of The World's Greatest Detective and Justice League Member himself, Batman. Marinette knows better than to believe that such a thing is pure coincidence, and is determined to use this pen-pal project to her advantage.

    What she didn't expect, however, was just how much she'd grow to like the mysterious boy behind the emails.

    Summary

    “Such lovely hair… Oh, right I am being so rude, not introducing myself. I am Talia Al Ghul, I am the one who hired those men to bring you here. They were only supposed to bring one of you though. They were so incompetent, unable to take the simplest orders. They had to die before they ruined my plans.”

    The woman, Talia, moves over, starting to play with Kagami’s hair as what she said started to sink in.

    Marinette clenches her jaw shut, willing herself not to say anything.

    “Now, since I have told you my name and who I am, it is only fair that you tell me yours. Which one of you is Kagami Tsurugi?”

    “I am.” What happened to keeping your mouth shut Marinette? That was a solid plan, why did you ruin it?

    Summary

    Things have... escalated, to say the least.
    no guardian, few friends and a whole lot of pressure.

    since that's the case how about a bit of reprieve from the hot mess that is the city of Paris and go to Gotham! a perfectly sound plan...

    sure there are villains... but hey! at least now you can be mad about it or scared.

    ((like when she gets left behind on multiple occasions!))

    villains and criminals aren't the only things that Marinette finds in the city of crime, although... is stealing her heart counted as a crime?

    it matters not! she can deal with a crush!

    she is trending?... sure she can deal with fame... or at least she will be needing to soon anyway.

    she gets a new family?... sure sure, she can deal with more mouths to feed

    wait... why are they all so protective?! she has been a good person, she doesn't deserve this!! QAQ.

    (Marinette could NOT, in fact, deal with a crush. it all went downhill from there)

    Summary

    "Marinette’s skin prickled, burning like the flames around her. The fire was so close now, licking up her legs, burning the skin on her arms, preparing to consume her. And Damian… Damian was too far. She could feel the tremors of ‘Eth Alth’eban below her, cracks forming in the ground she once thought to be unshakeable. The same cracks that opened a canyon below her parents and taken them, now threatened to take not only her, but her beloved. Her Demon.

    And then the ground opened up and Damian was gone."
    __________

    Damian and Marinette grew up together in the League of Assassins, they fought together like they were one assassin instead of two. They were supposed to rule the underworld, the two most dangerous people in the world. They were betrothed and they loved each other with more of them than they could spare. But when the League falls, Marinette ends up in Paris believing her betrothed to be dead, and Damian ends up in Gotham, thinking the same.
