- Five Nights at Freddy's
- Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir
- My Hero Academia
- Little Nightmares
- Angels of Death
Story Summary: Marinette Dupain-Cheng is not your average girl, even in a world full of Heroes and Villains. Haunted by a past she can't escape and a future she can't predict, she walks a lonely path through the heart of Paris. But then things start taking a turn for the supernatural very quickly, and Marinette faces a choice: let others in or be consumed by what's inside her. Can she keep her secrets buried, or will they rise to devour everything she's fought to protect?

All The Things She Feels
The cold night air made Marinette shiver and cuddle into the red scarf that wrapped around her neck. She looked at the bright lights of Paris, of her city. A city of love. A city of light and happiness. Yet she had none. She clenched the charm Adrien had given her what felt like so long ago. He was all that was left. Everyone had left her. Her parents were disappointed in her. Her friends were angry. She heard the flapping wings of an Akuma and closed her eyes. She didn't try to stop it from taking over the charm in her hand, dark energy spreading through the trinket as his voice calmly entered her mind. As she uttered the words she was sure she would never say, she held the lucky charm close and listened to her thoughts as she lost control. Adrien and Chat. Adrien and Chat. That was all that was left. And then Marinette Dupan Cheng fell- no, she flew- off the edge of the Eiffel Tower to reveal her akumatized form. It all came in a rush that surprised even Hawkmoth because at that moment she felt every negative emotion, everything she was ever angry about came through her mind, powering her body. It was everything. It was all the things. It was all the things she felt. A few curse words, so be wary! JEEZ #1 IN AKUMATIZEDMARINETTE (3-19-20) WTF?

Papers and pencils (Miraculous Love Square)
"The magazine that Adrien is currently modeling for, has asked that I provide them with a new medium to present Adrien in. They do not want a photoshoot of Adrien, but an artpiece." "Oh?"

Marinette Dupain Cheng is commissioned by Gabriel Agreste to draw Adrien, her true love, for a magazine cover. The good part? She's eighteen and ready to start her life. This gives her an opportunity. The problem? Marinette hasn't drawn a human before. Ever. The solution? Lots and lots of practice. As Marinette trains to make a magazine worthy sketch, she and Adrien start developing a relationship far more intimate than that of a model and an artist. Meanwhile, the devious hawkmoth grows ever more frustrated. Ladybug and Chat Noir have to work together, and harder than ever before to keep up with him. This, of course, develops their relationship. What will the outcome be? Read on to find out! Tip: listen to the added songs while reading to create background music for the different chapters.

But while her partner is just like every other teenager under the mask, Marinette wears another facade beneath her alter-ego's magical suit. A Princess undercover as a Parisian teenager. The Princess of China. Forced to leave China due to the threat of rebels, the royal family of China camouflages under their disguise of being bakers.

What happens when the Queen makes the mistake of sending the invitations of the coronation to Marinette's oblivious friends? And their plan of disappearing from France quietly goes down the drain as her friends follow them to China, making it harder to keep her identity a secret. Let's add boy troubles, liars, rich blonde brats, nosy friends, ready-to-kill rebels and oh, not to forget, a homicidal cousin. Sounds like a party, huh?

Keep the Mask, It Goes With Your Costume
Paris' favorite Marinette Dupain-Cheng has gone missing for good, and Cat Noir just can't settle with the fact that no one seems to care, but he will keep searching, and never give up until she's found, even when all hope is lost, even at the cost of giving away everything he loves. 6/17/2021: STORY RANKED NUMBER 1 FOR #MIRACULOUS AND #MIRACULOUSLADYBUG , THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!🥳🥳 _________________________________________ "I can't give up, I just can't, we must find her." Cat Noir looked with fear and sorrow in his partners beautiful blue bell eyes, that seemed to only glow more in the evening sky, but he didn't pay much attention to that, too much going on in his head as he feared for the fate of the young woman he used to know. Ladybug could tell he was scared, scared they might not be able to find her, but she couldn't tell him the truth, she just couldn't. She had to keep it a secret, no matter how wrong it felt. And if Cat noir knew the truth about this, he would only feel sorry for his dear lady, and she didn't want that. She looked down from him to avoid eye contact, knowing she couldn't explain, and she didn't want him to see the tears filling up in her eyes. _____________________________________________________ Appropriate for all ages!

🚨DISCONTINUED🚨 i re-read this book and... well, comparing it to my latest works, it kinda sucks. the story is good and i like where it was going. i just... don't like it anymore. plus, with season 5 out now, i have to rethink my original ending and everything. i am rewriting it. it'll have an oc, an new kwami and a whole new backstory, so a lot is gonna change. i don't know when i'll start posting it but i promise it'll be better than this. thank you for enjoying this one if you decided to read it :) ------------------- (Y/N) has just moved to France. She is a spunky, athletic (sorry if you're not), and an incredibly observant person. Naturally, when villains start attacking Paris and heroes are saving the day, she recognizes her friends, Marinette and Adrien as the superheroes, immediately. Being their bestest friend ever, however, Y/N doesn't tell anybody that she knows and tries her hardest to cover for them when they're late or are struggling to come up with an excuse; plus she joins in on adventures often. Join Y/N on this dangerous and love filled adventure of villains and magic. -Warning: this does contain violence, strong language, sexual activity and mature themes. Beware. Also, they are 17 y/o, senior year, grade 12, 12th year, how ever you say that. So they are old enough for freaky things. -I will also be writing the episodes I think are beneficial to the plot, I'll leave filler episodes out for the most part. -Under constant editing and rewriting. So old chapters will probably change a bit as I go. -All characters (except Y/N) and episodes belong to Miraculous Ladybug. Everything that I write about Y/N is from my own brain. -Thank youComplete
