    Summary

    Each university student sat in that familiar agreement, so in turn, the class let out quietly as usual. Marinette packed light, so with her notebook closed and pens stacked in her case, she walked out of class. Tikki sat asleep in her pack, undisturbed by the shifting.

    It was when she made her way to a coffee shop that she had been meaning to try that something struck her. Not inspiration, but a person.
    She knew the face well. How could she not? It was in every slideshow her design professor hurried through. No, not his teen heartthrob face. The one Adrian had grown into. The man himself took a step back and centered himself.

    “It's good to see you.” She could feel his eyes, despite avoiding them.
    The small tension she had unwillingly raised dissipated, just her and an old classmate.
    Totally.

    –---------------------------------------------------
    3 year timeskip to adulthood. Its a MariChat story with an Adrienette intro.

    Summary

    “I know this is probably out of nowhere, but I want to say it before I convince myself I shouldn’t.”

    Marinette looked down at her feet, watching as Felix turned around to face her. “I hate that I always give up before I start things. That I think so much it convinces me to never try again. I want to change.” She paused, “I want to be able to make that change.”

    (Basically just my own interpretation of how the original story would be based on the PV. Fair warning I've only watched up to 4 seasons of MLB because It got too confusing to continue, so I won't be adding anything from the later seasons. A lot of this is going to be me taking my own creative liberties on the material. The title is from the song "If I were." by Vashti Bunyan.)

    Summary

    Adrien's feeling a little lost after they put his father in jail, where he belongs. He's not sure what to do with his life. A lost and lonely kitty singing on the rooftops might need someone to come and give him a nudge in the right direction.

    Meanwhile, Marinette unexpectedly meets someone who's famous in her line of work. (Not that one. No, not that one either.)

    Summary

    Gabriel Agreste was given a life sentence for the damage he did to Adrien's elemental powers when he tried to strip them away. But that doesn't help Adrien now. He can't control his powers. Whatever his father did, it damaged him so severely that Adrien creates tornadoes whenever he's upset or angry or when he's having a nightmare.

    But maybe Paris's newest water talent can help him.

    Summary

    It's been a long time since Adrien wished for anything. He's free of his father's house and the modeling, he's going to university, he has friends that he loves and a life he can be proud of. He doesn't need anything badly enough that he has to wish for it.

    But maybe he could be persuaded otherwise - especially if it might help the genie trapped in the lamp.

    Summary

    Marinette has always been physically weak, constant trips to the hospital have been the norm for her since she was very little. Her lungs have had issues with taking in enough since birth and her legs have completely paralysed from the waist down since she was age ten with seemingly no causing factor. Marinette feels bored, broken and tired, seeing the same view from her hospital window day after day just to be relocated every few years to a new hospital has taken a toll on her, she feels useless, she feels like a burden.
    They say she's getting better.
    She doesn't believe them.
    After a checkup on a rather busy day she finds an odd box on her bedside table that she doesn't recognise, but this little box (and the god hidden inside of it) will change her life forever and let her see everything she was unable to see before.
    This is the story of Mariposa, the girl behind the heroes.

    Summary

    When Adrien reluctantly signed up for Baking Disasters, he never imagined he'd enjoy himself. Neither did he think he'd meet someone and fall headlong in love, but that happened, too.

    Not that he's met Marinette yet. That's the problem.

    But hopefully, it won't be a problem for much longer.

    Summary

    Earth, 20XX.
    The cruel war against Hawkmoth comes to a close, and ends with an overwhelming victory of Ladybug and her Court.
    Due to her speech after the Final Battle being live broadcasted and the communication block isolating Paris and its' surroundings getting lifted, the world catches a first glimpse of the accomplished team of french heroes.
    Not knowing the global shot and outcry she caused, Marinette felt incredibly relieved that their years of forced happiness and hidden terror were over, and she could finally focus on the jagged pieces that are her life.
    Soon after, things are finally looking up for her and the other newly retired protectors of France.
    She should have known It would never be that easy. For all that Ladybugs stand for Luck, Fate truly gave her an unfortunate hand of cards.
    Now on the run from her abuser, a faked passport in hand and the Miracle Box hidden under magic and clothes in her bag, she makes her way to her new home (for the time being):
    Gotham.
    Will Luck finally be on Marinette's side?
    Or will her past catch up to her in the notorious crime-capital of America?
