  2. Summary

    After learning each other’s identities, Adrien and Marinette decide they need a sanctuary: somewhere they can go for shelter if one of them feels vulnerable to akumatization, or just if they feel like life is becoming too much to cope with alone. These are the stories of how it came to be and how it makes them that much stronger in the fight against Hawk Moth.

    Summary

    Adrien was tired. Perhaps that was why he didn’t realize at the time that his father’s stream of seemingly disconnected thoughts were actually all very much connected.
    And he wouldn’t realize it until the next day, when Marinette Dupain-Cheng walked into his office, stuttering over her declaration that she was his new assistant, and she was going with him to fashion week.

    Adrien Agreste is about to face his biggest challenge yet, and it's not the akuma.
    It's the sleeping arrangements.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Gabemoth tries to leverage the love square to his own advantage. Operative word being tries, because he’s missing two critical pieces of information that mean what he does instead is put Marinette and Adrien in a hotel room with only one bed and no adult supervision. The Adrienette interactions are adorable, even in the initial awkward phase where they’re torn between wanting to be respectful of the fact that the neither of them agreed to be put in this situation and trying to figure out if the other person feels the same way, and while it’s not immediately obvious what Gabe is planning because the story is mostly from Adrien’s POV, when the reveal finally comes, you can’t help but laugh, because he’s so convinced it’s a good plan even though it’s actually rather questionable even without considering the information we have that he doesn’t.

    Summary

    "Oh my God, I just matched with Adrien Agreste, oh my freaking God! Chat!! Chat, come come come! Look look!"

    But Chat Noir wasn’t paying her any mind. Because the moment she started screaming about her new match, Chat Noir tried to quickly exit out of his matches page so that he wouldn’t see who popped up. But it was far too late, because right when he blinked, his phone buzzed with an excited message about his new match.

    He was not expecting it to be Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Ladybug and Chat are killing time swiping through Tinder after patrol when they accidentally match each other as their civilian selves. Adrien realizes right away what’s happened, and the story mostly follows his POV as he endeavors to lead his lady to the same conclusion since he’s too nervous to come right out and tell her. There’s a little bit of awkwardness between Adrien and Marinette at first until they get their bearings, but they quickly fall back into their usual rhythm, which is completely and utterly adorable to watch. We don’t get to see enough of Adrien being nervous around his crush in this fandom, and this fic’s depiction of it is amazing. Honestly, everything about this fic is amazing, from the humor to the fluff to the way that Tom is all but openly shipping Adrienette.

    Summary

    Harry doesn't necessarily expect a polite "thank you" after saving Daphne Greengrass and her younger sister from falling to their deaths, but he definitely doesn't expect the stream of verbal and magical curses he gets instead. His surprise is nothing compared to hers when her curse fails, though, and that discovery propels the two into a whirlwind week of legal loophole abuse, awkward lust, and weaponized Pureblood etiquette lessons.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    When Harry’s saving people thing brings him across the path of Daphne Greengrass and her sister Astoria, they hatch a plot to bring down Voldemort and the system that enabled his rise by twisting mostly-forgotten rules to their own advantage. It’s mostly Daphne driving the plan, but in my opinion, the fic is that much better for it since Harry is learning the ways of the Ancient Houses as he goes, and having him absorb it immediately and be able to come up with complex plans based around taking advantage of the rules would stretch credibility. The fic also does a good job of developing the Harry/Daphne romance without making it seem rushed despite the short timeframe over which the main body of the action takes place.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    An understatedly beautiful not-quite-Juledrien-but-not-not-Juledrien fic set after Rose’s passing. I wouldn’t really say I ship them, but I could totally see them in a QPR, and this fic provides the perfect little snippet of how that could start.

    Summary

    Bobby created HUNTR/X, not Celine.

    Surprisingly, this both changes everything and nothing.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Featuring girl dad Bobby, baby Huntr/x, and a Celine who is being restricted by bolshy exec's while sneakily funding Bobby the entire time because what is Celine but a richer and sneakier Rumi?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    A heartwarming tale of the formation of HUNTR/X featuring adorably precocious Rumi, Zoey finding her place in the world, Mira being rescued and having vengeance wrought on her behalf, and Bobby as the ultimate girl dad. Definitely give this one a read.
