Miraculous_Witch

Mature

Adrien Agreste could usually pretend he was fine. He'd never faltered from his regimen of fake smiles since childhood. At twenty-six years old he was an accomplished model with nearly a million to his name. Some would look at him and swoon: a perfect man with a perfect life. What they failed to see were the heartache and the trauma.

As Adrien, he couldn't be anything less than perfect. Everything he did was monitored, everything he did was rehearsed. He was a pawn in his father's game, which came with all the perks of abuse and depression. But as Chat Noir, he could be himself. He could be goofy and silly without being chastised. He could cry without being tormented. But when his lives bleed together, his pain becomes too much.

"M-make sure you g-get a better partner this time... little bug."

Different | Marichat [DISCONTINUED] by mintyspices

Let's just say things took a very different turn. Adrien Agreste or Chat Noir; Paris' famed superhero, has found himself in love with everyone's favorite bluenette, Marinette Dupain-Cheng after a ladybug-patterned umbrella was given to him as part of an apology when he mistakes Marinette's kindness for rude behavior during a chewing gum accident. Who knew Chloe could trigger such a wonderful event in time. All because this different turn in time Adrien's life has changed, now if only he could get himself to act normally around Marinette so his feelings wouldn't be so one-sided. Marinette really is a normal girl with a normal life. There's not a single thing people don't know about her because she doesn't find special earring in her possession and unluckily neither does anyone else, causing major trouble for the city of Paris and a lot more work for Chat Noir. On top of all of these wild feelings and trouble, Chat and Marinette meet on the street's, and with Chat's confidence in the suit, he can talk to Marinette with ease, how lucky. How can Marinette not fall for him! Even though this situation seems more than perfect, both of them can't seem to let any big confessions out leaving each of the two more than confused with their feelings. ••• I do not own any of the characters in this fanfiction all of them rightfully belong to Zagtoon and the creator of Miraculous, Thomas Astruc.

Silenced by falling_in_rain

Adrien Agreste is always silenced. Don't slouch, don't act out, don't talk back, don't disobey, don't do anything to make the Agreste brand (not name; never name) look bad. Never talk with your mouth full, never step to the right when you're meant to go left, never look up when you are not told to, never speak without permission. Adrien Agreste is always silenced. Gabriel Agreste, his father (not dad; never dad), has conditioned him to stay silent and sit on the back burner, while he takes everything by the reins. From his studies, to his internet access, to his social interactions-down to the very outfit he wears. He is controlling of his son's life, but his son is used to it. Because when you're Adrien Agreste, you learn to be silent. You learn to sit up straight, to act right, to comply without words, to obey, to be perfect (not good; never good). You learn to chew before even moving your lips and covering your mouth to do so, to follow your father step by step and never break from the routine, to look down and only look up if called, to speak when spoken to. Adrien Agreste has learned to live with being silenced. Adrien Agreste is always silent.
