When Chat Noir is struck with a curse, his sleep becomes insufferable as he repeatedly witnesses his worst fear. (UPDATE: As much as I wanted to finish this fic eventually, I don't have the time or motivation to continue it anymore. Thank you for understanding, and thank you to anyone who read and enjoyed my work.)

Joint Project with WillowLaurenGCoy ◦◦◦ "Why can't you just accept it? The Chat Noir you knew is gone." "No, he's not." Marinette held his gaze defiantly and placed her other hand on his chest, right over his heart. It beat soft and steadily beneath her palm. She smiled to herself, "He's right here." Chat Blanc threw his head back and laughed, his icy blue eyes filled with dark amusement. "Oh Marinette, haven't you heard?" He ran his hand through her hair, fixated on how the silky strands fell between his fingers. He reached beneath her chin, tilting her face up to his. "People say there's a monster in Paris, and that monster is me." ◦◦◦ When Lila takes things a little too far and Marinette is expelled, she feels like she's lost everything: her friends, her future and, most of all, Adrien. But Chat Noir gives her hope and helps her form a plan to get her life back. Adrien has problems of his own. After an awful encounter with Ladybug he's no longer sure about their partnership and ends up failing Marinette when she needs him most. Only this time he won't sit back like he did before. But their misery beckons to Hawk Moth and he takes full advantage of the situation. Chat Blanc will do everything in his power to keep Chat Noir from coming back and Marinette is the only one who can save him. But without her powers the challenge seems near impossible. Because why would a monster turn back into a lowly human when he's given everything he's ever wanted?

There are others. Everything is like a dream. Our enemy is much like us. Sometimes we hunt them. Other times, they do the hunting. Simply put, our world is chaos. Some of them love it-- the rush of adrenaline battle brings, the joy of the hunt. Some are terrified and never want to leave the safety of "home". But they pretend to be strong, otherwise they're cast out, sentenced to live in lonesome fear until they are caught and destroyed. This is my world. This is our prison.

Ever since his mom died, Cat Noir has been struggling. He's so good at hiding it that no one knows. Not even his closest friends or his father. But then unforeseen events lead his condition to worsen drastically, and it's only a matter of time before someone finds out... WARNING: CONTAINS HIGHLY SENSITIVE SUBGECT MATTER THAT SOME PEOPLE MAY FIND UPPSETTING. DO NO READ IF YOU THINK THIS MAY BOTHER YOU.

When Marinette gets hit by a car while crossing the street on her way to school, she ends up losing all of her memories of who she was - including Ladybug. She's scared and lost, and everyone is a stranger. Just when she starts to get to know Chat Noir and to understand herself as Ladybug, her memories vanish again. And again. Chat Noir is the only one who can save her. I don't own Miraculous Ladybug. Completed (not edited).

Adrien Agreste is tired of it all. The beatings. The pain. The façade he must put on in front of his friends, in front of Ladybug. He cannot take it anymore. Marinette begins to notice that something is up with Adrien, and becomes worried when Chat's entire personality changes. She desperately wants to help her partner and find out what is wrong with Adrien, but she has no idea how to. Will she figure out how to save them in time? Or will she be too late?

(Completed) Marinette is sent 8 years in the future by an akuma. While there she discovers a grown up Chat Noir and more about her future than she could have ever imagined.
