Pairing: Viperion | Luka Couffaine/ Ladybug | Marinette Dupain-Cheng

Reblogs: Let me know that you enjoy my work and want to see more, so don’t forget to like and reblog (and comment in the tags. I love seeing people’s rambles in the tags)!

This work’s concepts, plot and original characters are my own which means I do not allow any sort of creative theft nor do I allow my work to be entered into any sort of A.I. bots. Thank you for respecting my space and boundaries.

Sunday September 22nd, 2019 - Sun and Moon

So close yet so far.

The Sun’s light touches upon the Moon.

Reflecting such a wondrous shine.

So close yet so far.

Yet on a Solar Eclipse.

They hold one another

For but a few seconds

Before departing once more

So close yet so far, my dearly beloved.

Monday September 23rd, 2019 - Water and Earth

Opposing Elements

Water blessed by the Moon

Earth blessed by Mother Nature

Opposing Elements

Blessed by the Tides

Blessed by the Quakes

Together a Fearsome Force

Tuesday September 24th, 2019 - Spring and Winter

From the harsh cold of Winter

comes Spring.

When the snow meets fresh soil

do flowers bloom

From the blossoming of flowers

Comes the animals

Who slept throughout the cold

Waking to the beauty of Spring

Sleeping through the beauty of Winter.

Wednesday September 25th, 2019 - Mermaids

Up where the walk Up where they run Up where they stay all day in the sun Wanderin’ free Wish I could be Part of that world

“You literally have everything any Mer could want.”

“Yeah but I could have more; do more- experience so much more if I were able to be up there!”

“Oh yeah? Like what?”

“Walk along the shore with you.”

“But you could do that here?”

“It’s not the same.

“Alright, alright. I’ll help you find a way to walk across the shore.”

“Come on then, let’s go see Gabriel!”

Thursday September 26th, 2019 - Soulmates

“If you’re having a good/bad day your soulmate will have the same amount of good/bad day.” - @/r-evolve-art

It must have been a bad one.

A really bad one.

His heart twisted for her

Or maybe her own heart was twisting from the pain.

He didn’t know what exactly what happened

But he could guess.

One thing’s for sure

He needed to make sure that he made her day better

In every way possible.

Friday September 27th, 2019 - Songbird

Everything stays Right where you left it

They’d finally done it.

They’d defeated Hawkmoth.

Everything stays Right where you left it

It was a bittersweet victory.

Secrets were revealed.

Everything stays But it still changes

But at least one thing was constant.

Ever so slightly Daily and nightly

Although a little weathered from the fight

But she knew she could always return there

In little ways

To him

When everything stays…

Saturday September 28, 2019 - Witch and Cats

She’d meet him in an alley

But he obviously wasn’t an alley cat by the way he held himself

But he also wasn’t a prestigious kitty either

It seemed more like he was there to chill

“Hmm. hey there.” Marinette crouched down to the cat’s level. “Would you like to be my familiar?”

The cat strutted closer and nuzzled it’s head in her open palm in response.

“Alright then. How about I call you… ‘Luka’? How’s that?” The cat purred, obviously liking the name.

“Okay, Luka let’s go to your new home.”

Sunday September 29th, 2019 - Reincarnation

Have you ever felt like you’ve met someone before?

In a past life maybe?

That’s what it feels like when I’m with him.

Just feels like we’re supposed to be together

But deeper than we’re extremely compatible but rather

Just meant to be with one another

Literally meant for one another

Always meant to find each other

No matter the distance

No matter the life

We’ll always find each other

Monday September 30th, 2019 - Vigilante

She watched him crack the door shut. “Are the kids asleep?”

He nodded. “Yeah.”

She gave him a smirk. “Are ready to take down some bad guys, Panther?”

He returned it twice fold. “Always, Rogue.”

Better late than never! Combined day 6 & 7. After a date together, Marinette missed the chance to return a kiss to Luka. She gets that second chance on the next date. She kissed real close to his lips by accident 💖💙. .

A random angsty Lukanette scene

This has been sitting in my drafts since September 2019, waiting to be turned into a full fledged story. This scene is an angsty Lukanette situation, not happily ever after. It was meant to be the backstory for a Lukloe/Chloluka story. So if you're looking for some grey clouds today, here's some.

-----

“It’s because I’m in love with you!”

Marinette’s head whipped up suddenly, her face paler than he’d ever seen, “What?”

Luka took a deep breath through his nose, accepting that he’d spoken the words at long last, and he released his breath, words slipping softly through, “I’m in love with you,”

“Since when?” Marinette asked after a few tense moments.

Luka scoffed as he ran a hand through his hair, “Since the beginning, Marinette, since the beginning.”

“But you never…”

“Oh, but I did, Marinette, you just, I don’t know, wrote it off, pretended you didn’t see it? Hell, I don’t know.”

Marinette turned crimson and turned her gaze to her shoes before a horrified look crossed her features, “Adrien…”

Luka nodded, a bitter smile on his lips, “Yeah, Adrien,”

Her hands covered her face and her mumbles for a moment, “Luka, I’m so, so sorry,”

“Me too,”

“How have you put up with me so long? How could you love someone who had no regard for you? All I’ve done over the years is pine after him and now…”

Luka took a few steps toward her and reached a hand to cup her cheek, “It’s as I said: because I love you. I held out hope that maybe, one day, you might…but here we are…”

Glassy blue eyes looked up at him as his hand slipped away from her. The shame in her expression was confirming his deepest fears: she didn’t feel the same, not after everything he’d ever done, anything he’d ever said, after all these years.

“This might be selfish, but I’ve always wondered,” she started slowly, “because I have had feelings for you, it’s just…Adrien, but…Luka…can I? Um, can we try?” his heart leapt up to this throat, “Can we…kiss? I came back here because I have always had doubts with him because of you and so now, I wonder how I’d feel, how you’d feel, maybe it could change-“

His hands gripped her face firmly seconds before his lips crashed down on hers, cutting off her rambling. He stepped closer and let one hand fall to her waist, pulling her toward him. Her lips were soft and warm, tasting of the strawberry lip gloss she wore on her days off. Luka’s mind reeled with the realization that he was finally kissing her. Years of wondering, of hoping, of dreaming. He was finally here. The blood pumped loudly through his ears for the few seconds he spent the closest he’d ever been to her before he felt the figurative bucket of ice water washing over him. He was kissing her, begging her to get even closer in all but words, and she didn’t move. Her lips worked slowly before they stopped altogether. The strawberry flavor was washed away with salty drops of water. Steeling his emotions, Luka broke the kiss and pulled away.

He didn’t dare open his eyes as he heard her unsteady breathing, “Luka, I’m so-“

“Save it.” He turned away from her.

“Luka,”

The seconds felt like hours, the minutes felt like days before he looked at her, “I’ve always been here for you, Marinette. You’re someone I’ve admired and cared for for such a long time. I promised you years ago that you could always count on me,”

Her voice came out uneven, “Luka,”

“I want to still be here for you, but I can’t do this right now,” He saw her come closer before she touched his arm gingerly. He pulled away from her as if she’d burned him. The hurt expression crossing her face was almost enough to stop him, “I think it’s best if you go. Go to Milan, or London, or New York, or wherever he’ll take you to make your dreams come true,”

“Paris is a fashion capital, too,” she whispered, “I could stay,”

“Why? If you stay, I won’t be here,” He pushed through the words, his voice trying to seize up, his eyes burning with unshed tears, “I need time and distance and honestly, to be done with this conversation.”

He turned away, afraid seeing her face would break down the walls he was scrambling to build.

“Where would you go?”

“Anywhere. Anywhere that’s not in the same city, preferably not the same country as Adrien fucking Agreste and…well,” they both knew he meant her, too.

----- FIN -----

Fanfiction Year In Review

Thanks for the tag @noirshitsuji!!

1. List of fics completed this year in the order they were finished

mArinette - Miraculous Ladybug, Easy A AU, lovesquare, 27,326 words, completed 9th January 2020

Papillon - Miraculous Ladybug, lukanette breakup, implied adrienette and luka/oc, 1,542 words, completed 13th January 2020

The Warlock of the Flame - Les Misérables, part 3 of an epic magic Winx Club AU, multiple pairings with focus on marisette, 163,204 words, completed 12th April 2020

Dear Diary… - Total Drama series, Heathers AU, Duncney, 34,423 words, completed 27th June 2020

Someday - Miraculous Ladybug, request for a MWG event, all sides of the lovesquare, 1872 words, completed 10th September 2020

Mistlejoke - Miraculous Ladybug, secret santa gift for @flashflashitsash, ladynoir, 3532 words, completed 31st December 2020 (like literally about five minutes to midnight hence why it was posted on the 1st of January 2021)

2. Number of words written

Let’s go with ‘published’ because there are innumerable WIPs on my harddrive and I have no clue how many of them were begun or updated this year.

Published: 77,680 words

Plus at least 30,000 more from various WIPs I’ve yet to publish.

3. Your most popular fic

Easily mArinette. I published most of it in 2019 when everyone was still buzzing about season 3, so it got a lot of traffic.

4. Your personal favourite

The Warlock of the Flame. It’s everything I want out of a story and I’m so proud of it.

5. Your fave scene

The scene in chapter 23 of The Warlock of the Flame where Cosette asks the Ancestral Witches to tell her the truth about Tholomyès and Fantine. It’s always enjoyable to me to write characters who are hungry for knowledge but conflicted about the means in which they find it.

6. A fic or scene that challenged you

Mistlejoke. All of Mistlejoke. I had half of November to write it and wound up cramming it into the two weeks before the deadline because it took me so long to come up with a working concept. I also struggled a lot with chapter 2 of The Dark Gate.

7. A line of writing you’re proud of

“I just want tonight to be the same as every party we’ve ever had here – good friends, good music, and sometime around midnight, Courfeyrac crying because he’s too drunk to remember pi to a thousand digits.”

Chapter 1 of The Dark Gate

8. A comment that touched you

I’ve had a lot of lovely comments, but this was one that made me so, so happy on mArinette, especially as it was the final in a chain of comments on each chapter:

Aaaaaaaahhhh! That ended so perfectly!!!! She even got hawkdaddy’s approval!? Yaaaasss! Honestly I loved this fic so much! You did so much to make it uniquely yours while still keeping qualities from both Miraculous and Easy A and just made this your own. I loved every goddamn minute of this. <3

9. Something that inspired your writing

With every story I’ve ever written I simply saw or heard or thought of something that made me think, there is a story to tell here. Might as well be me who tells it.

10. Your proudest accomplishment (that one scene; finally finishing that one fic; posting your first fic etc.)

If I think about it, it was the day I finished writing chapter 24 of The Warlock of the Flame. I wrote chapter 25 back when I started the project in 2017, and I was honestly beginning to doubt that I’d ever get to post it. But then I finished chapter 24 and it hit me: my project is half-done. My six-work epic project is halfway to being finished, and it’s going to end up as long as Les Mis itself, maybe even longer. I can do anything if I set my mind to it.

11. Do you have any writing goals for next year?

I intend to finish The Dark Gate before Halloween next year, and write more short stories based on both prompts and my own ideas. Besides that, just enjoy my writing.

This was lovely!! Tagging @sukker-sugar @theladyfae @robylovi if you’ve yet to do it!!

Take a Chance - Ch 1 First Meetings

Summary: Lukanette college AU. It all starts with a little mix-up. One look in her notebook and Luka is intrigued. One look in her eyes - and he’s in love.

This story came from the prompts for the first week of Lukanette September 2019. I was still pretty new to posting my stories and I wasn’t confident committing to the whole month but I figured, I could manage a week!

This story is complete on AO3

Marinette didn’t get a lot of phone calls, and she never got calls in the middle of the day. She stumbled a bit as she tried to get her phone out and walk at the same time. The number on the screen wasn’t a known contact, but it looked familiar. Wasn’t that Juleka’s number? But then why wouldn’t it show up under Juleka’s name? Frowning, she answered the call, trying not to sound too breathless. “Hello?”

“Uh, hi, I’m looking for Marinette?” The voice was male, so, definitely not Juleka.

“I’m Marinette,” she said cautiously.

“Cool, I’m Luka, I’m Juleka’s brother? I think we might have met once a few months back.”

“O-oh,” Marinette stammered, confused.

“Jules gave me your number because I have something of yours and I’m kinda hoping you have something of mine. A plain black notebook that basically looks exactly like yours, except mine has music inside instead of clothes. Sound familiar?”

“Oh gosh—um, hang on, let me check.” Marinette dug through her bag and pulled out her sketchbook. She flipped it open and her stomach dropped as she found that it wasn’t hers at all. It was full of music notations and scribbled notes that might have been song lyrics. “Yes, I have it,” she confirmed. “I’m so sorry, I’m such a klutz. You live with Juleka right? I was over there this morning and I knocked over a stack of things and I thought I put it all back but I must have switched these. I hope you didn’t need it, I’m so sorry—“

“It’s okay, it’s okay,” Luka said, soothingly, a touch of amusement in his warm voice. “As long as you have it, that’s fine. I do kind of need it tonight though, is there somewhere I can meet you and trade?”

“Um, let me think. I’m on my way to class now...it’s Tuesday, so my next break is at 3.”

“Okay, I’m in class until 3:30, but I could meet you right after? Um...there’s a coffee shop near the music building, do you know it? I can’t remember the name, but it has a red awning. I can meet you there after my class is over.”

“That sounds perfect,” Marinette agreed. “I know the place, I’ll meet you there.”

“Great.” Luka seemed to hesitate. “Okay, I hope this isn’t weird, but I was wondering if I could look at some more of your sketches? I only saw a few before I realized it wasn’t mine and found your name, but they looked really cool and I’m really curious to see the rest.”

Maybe it was a little weird, but it was also flattering. Marinette appreciated that he asked instead of just snooping through and not mentioning it. “Um, sure, there’s nothing really personal in it, just designs for one of my classes.”

“All art is personal,” Luka said easily, and then she heard someone calling to him. “Shit, you’re right,” he said, voice a bit distant before returning. “Marinette, I’m sorry, I’ve got to go before I’m late. I’ll see you a little after 3:30.”

“Okay, see you then,” Marinette replied, half expecting him to hang up before she finished speaking.

Instead she heard, “See you soon, Marinette,” before the line cut out.

***

Luka headed to the coffee shop with a quicker step than strictly necessary after escaping yet another boring, pedantic lecture from his least favorite professor. He hadn’t even heard half of it, fascinated by the book in his hand. He knew less than nothing about fashion in general and even less than that about the process of design, but there was so much life in the sketches covering the pages of the misplaced notebook. He couldn’t judge her talent, but Marinette’s passion was clear and he was curious about the girl behind the designs.

He found her easily enough, sitting in a booth facing the cafe’s entrance, his composition book placed prominently towards the edge of the table. For a moment, he felt disappointment. He wasn’t sure what he expected, and there was nothing wrong with her exactly, but...she didn’t really stand out, dressed in shades of pink and black, sweet but without any of the edge he’d seen in her art.

But it wasn’t like him to judge on appearances and he silently berated himself as he made his way over to the table. “Marinette?”

Then she looked up and locked eyes with him, and the deep blue of the sea fell into the endless blue of the sky and he swore he heard music.

***

Marinette had met Juleka’s brother once before, if you could call a hurried introduction and hello-goodbye a meeting, as he was rushing out to perform with his band. All she was really left with was the impression of blue, and lean muscles highlighted by body glitter.

She could see neither muscle nor glitter at the moment, but the blue was there, in his eyes and the tips of his shaggy hair. He wasn’t classically handsome but he had an interesting face, and she thought to herself that she’d like to dress him. It would be a nice change from cookie cutter models and he looked like he had a fun style.

He smiled and gestured at the empty bench across from her. “I’m Luka. May I?”

“Oh sure, of course,” she said quickly, shuffling her things ineffectually before realizing there was plenty of room. He slid in across from her, sleepy eyes a deeper shade of blue than her own fixed on her. She blushed faintly without really knowing why and his eyes flicked away.

“Thanks for meeting me,” he said. “I hope It wasn’t too far out of your way.”

“No, it wasn’t too far, and I’ve gotten some work done, so it’s all good. I’m so sorry about the mixup.”

He took her book out of his bag and slid it across the table towards her. “Thanks for letting me look at it. Way more interesting than my music theory class.”

“Oh,” Marinette blushed deeper. “A-are you interested in fashion?”

“No,” he admitted. “Honestly I never thought about it much, I just wear things that are comfortable and make me feel good. But I am interested in art, and I can see now that fashion is art too. So, thanks. For...a new perspective, I guess.”

Marinette couldn’t help smiling, there was something so sincere about the way he said it. He must have a really interesting way of looking at the world.

Which maybe shouldn’t surprise her so much. Juleka was hardly known for conventional thinking.

“I wish I could get as much from yours,” Marinette said, gesturing towards his notebook where it still lay on the table. “Not—not that I looked through it or anything, but just what I saw when I opened it, It’s only gibberish to me, I’m afraid.”

Luka smiled slowly. “You think so?” For a moment Marinette was afraid she’d insulted him, but he only took his notebook up and turned the pages for a moment. Then he laid it back down and turned it so she could see the open pages. “What do you see here?”

She looked, and at first it was only gibberish, as she’d said, a mix of notes and musical terms, with occasional notes that made sense but didn’t, like “dark, flash flood, drowning.” Marinette glanced up at Luka, who was watching her with a small smile on his face. She looked down at the page again, and this time she noticed the dark lines and deep grooves, the places where things were not just crossed out, but scratched through or scribbled black. The whole feel of the page was frustration, maybe even anger. “This,” she said slowly, looking up at him. “This was not a good day.”

Luka’s smile widened. “See? You can’t read the notes, but the feelings still come through. I felt the same way about yours.” Marinette slid the notebook back to him, smiling herself. “Can I ask you something?” Luka asked. “You don’t have to answer if it’s too personal.” He gestured to her notebook again and she handed it back to him. He thumbed quickly through the pages until he found the one he wanted. He put it back down in front of her, watching her face. “What happened?”

The page was scribbled over with thick black marker lines, zigzagging across the dress that had been coming to life on the page. Beneath the thick scribbles, there were notes written around the sketch, some scratched out and some visibly messier than others. Marinette winced looking at it. “It couldn’t do what I wanted to,” she said, after staring at it for a moment. “It was...the dress wasn’t right for the concept, or the concept couldn’t be a dress at all, and the more I tried to fix it the more frustrated I got. Then my TA reviewed my work for the week and ripped me a new one over it, and...I just knew I wasn’t ever going to be excited over it again, so I scrapped it.”

She felt ashamed as she said it, like she was admitting she was a quitter, but Luka just nodded, as if she made perfect sense, then reached over and turned a couple of pages.

“Not that my opinion’s worth much, but this one was my favorite. It just has so much energy. It feels...hopeful. Like it’s waiting for great things to happen.” He glanced up at her, looking uncertain for the first time in their conversation. “I hope that came out right. I’m not always great at explaining things.”

Marinette just stared at him in wonder, a bright smile slowly spreading over her face. “No, I think you got exactly what I was thinking. It’s a first date dress, I mean, that’s what I was thinking when I made it.”

Luka nodded slowly. “Potential.”

Marinette beamed. “Yes, exactly.” She leaned on the table and put her chin on her fist, looking at him with renewed curiosity. He looked back for a minute, and then straightened abruptly.

“I think I’m going to get a drink, would you like anything?” Luka said, sliding from the booth.

Marinette blinked. “Um, yeah, that would be great. A cinnamon latte?”

“Got it. Be right back.”

Marinette sat back as he walked away.

He seemed nice.

***

Do you believe in love at first sight?

He’d heard the question many times before, usually from people trying to pick him up after performances, but until now he’d been largely agnostic on the matter. It could happen, but I’ve never seen it.

Luka was a thorough believer now.

Of course he knew the term coup de foudre but he’d never known it was so...accurate. He’d never experienced a shock to his system like the one he’d felt when he locked eyes with Marinette.

They were supposed to just exchange books and go on their way. He was bad at small talk, he knew it, but jumping into such an intimate conversation hadn’t been his intention either. He fervently hoped he wasn’t scaring her off. He knew his natural intensity could be off putting when he was too focused on a single person, and right now he was very, very focused on Marinette.

Luka ordered the drinks in to go cups, just in case.

When he returned with the drinks he felt a bit better. Marinette looked more comfortable and relaxed, and made no move to flee once he set her drink in front of her.

When he was back in his seat, Marinette surprised him, asking, “So, um, is music your major or just a hobby?”

“Music Ed, actually,” Luka replied, wrapping his long fingers around his cup.

“Really? You want to be a teacher?”

Luka chuckled. “I’d like to be a musician and not starve. Honestly, I’d like to give private lessons so I can work one on one with the kids and still work on my own music.”

“I remember you play in a band,” Marinette said.

“Yeah, we’re playing this weekend actually.” Luka rummaged in his bag for the stack of fliers, grateful for the opening. He pulled one out and handed it to Marinette. “I’d love for you to come.” Her eyes met his again and he felt that same shock run through his system. He wondered if she felt it too.

He flexed his fingers, wishing for his guitar.

Lukanette September

I couldn’t follow the prompts, but that doesn’t stop me from celebrating this month somehow! Huge thanks to @corgi-likes-chat for reading, screaming and drawing <3 and @edendaphne for the awesome beta <3. You two made me feel proud of this one.

Patreon | Ko-fi | Twitter | Instagram

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

It didn’t come suddenly. It wasn’t a bolt of lightning. It wasn’t love at first sight. It had been something far more subtle. Like a small candle that consumed an entire room when she least expected.

What was worse, it took her a long time to realize what had happened. Too long. Long enough for him to move on. To create a life of his own, while she could only support him from the sidelines. All the while he thought she was content with what she had.

But she wasn’t. Waiting for someone who didn’t really see her, no matter how much he looked, was not enough. She wanted someone who made her smile, who gave her peace, who was there in her lowest moments and never judged her. Yet, like before, the timing was wrong.

So there Marinette was, standing just out of view from the crowds, silently cheering on Kitty Section. It was the best she could do, while she figured out how to move on once again. As the band finished their presentation, the members congregated backstage for refreshments.

“That was so cool!” Rose squealed, embracing Juleka. “Did you see that crowd? They were so many!”

“Yeah,” Juleka grinned, stroking her girlfriend’s hair. “It was awesome.”

“You guys did amazing,” Marinette piped up, as she started taking the large costume pieces from each one of them. “I think that next concert is guaranteed at this point.”

“Totally!” Mylène said, as she gave Ivan a bottle of water. “Penny was talking to the owner of the theater, and he said they hadn’t sold that many tickets in years.”

“That’s great news.”

Marinette resisted the urge to turn her head upon hearing that voice. Instead, she quietly placed the costume pieces in their respective boxes. The group continued their excited chatter, until a door opened, and in came…her.

“What are you doing here?” Luka was asking, as he hugged the girl that had just walked in. “I thought you had that thing—”

“It got cancelled,” the girl Marinette knew as Tina answered. “So, I decided to come support my favorite band.”

Marinette looked just in time to see the girl boop Luka’s nose. She quickly looked away to take a deep breath. Steady, heart, she thought as she exhaled. You’re fine. I’m fine. She’s been around for a month. There’s no surprise here.

Feeling calmer, she continued what she was doing, until she realized there was only one costume left. With a breath of determination, she turned on her heels and headed towards Luka and Tina.

“Hey, I’m putting away the costumes,” Marinette said loudly.

“Oh,” he responded, quickly taking off the pieces made of EVA foam. “Sorry, I got distracted.”

“It’s fine,” Marinette shrugged, forcing a smile. “I know how it is.”

As Luka gave her the costume pieces, Tina elbowed him. Marinette ignored it. If there was anything she’d learned from her time obsessing over Adrien, was that not every little detail had meaning. She turned and headed to the boxes away from the group, proud to have remained polite and coherent.

“Marinette?” Luka said quietly near her, as she closed the last box. The girl took a deep breath, wondering when he had gotten close to her.

“What’s up?” She turned to face him, keeping her face as neutral as possible.

“Um…Are you okay?”

Marinette blinked. “W-What?” she stammered, letting out a nervous giggle. “Why would I not be okay? T-that’s weird. You’re weird. I mean, you’re not weird like that, just—” She mentally slapped herself. “I’m fine. Why do you ask?”

“I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable,” Luka responded, averting his eyes. “I asked because for a while now, you haven’t sounded like yourself. And just over there, I could hear a sad song come from you. Which I hear almost every time I see you these days.”

The girl paused, cursing Luka’s perception. She had hoped he would never find out. It had worked with Adrien, so why wouldn’t it work for Luka, too? What she had forgotten was how observant Luka could be, unlike her previous crush. Even so, she refused to place him in an uncomfortable position.

“It’s nothing.” She waved a hand dismissively. “Just stressed. Why don’t you go back to Tina? She keeps looking this way.”

“Don’t mind her.” Luka took a step forward and took her wrist, sending a chill up her arm. “You know I would never judge you, right? Please, talk to me. I know I’m not good with words, but I’m a great listener.”

“You’re great with words,” Marinette sighed. “I just didn’t listen when I should’ve.”

Luka frowned. “Did I do something?”

“No!” Her eyes widened. “No, no, you’ve done nothing! You’re great! You always have been, even when you didn’t have to.”

“Then why are you sad? I don’t want to keep making you sad.”

“Why do you think you’re making me sad?”

“I see it.”

“Luka—”

“Please!” Luka then slid his hand into hers, squeezing and raising it up to his chest. “You don’t have to hide anything from me.”

“STOP!”

Marinette yanked her hand away, letting out ragged breaths. She could instantly feel several pairs of eyes fall on her. One of them were those of Tina, who was staring with puzzlement. She could feel her face heat up. It was the first time in a while she had acted in such an embarrassing way.

“I-I…” Marinette’s mind was drawing a blank. Would it be so wrong to run? No. “I’m sorry.”

With her heart giving thunderous beats in her chest, Marinette ran off towards the door. When she opened it, a crowd of fans and photographers were blocking the way. She pushed through the crowd, desperate to get as far as possible from the calls behind her, .

While squeezing through, she heard new screams, indicating that someone had just followed her. Probably one of the band members hoping to bring her back. Marinette pushed harder, bumping into shoulders and biceps, until she reached the back of the crowd.

Once freed, she ran. She ran past coffee shops, past restaurants. Past bookstores, cheese shops, and music stores. She ran until she reached a small park with a fountain in the middle. Her legs felt like jelly, and her resolve to keep running died. With hard pants, she sat on the edge of the fountain, covering her face.

“Why did I do that?!” she scolded herself. “I must’ve looked weirder than usual. Tina must’ve thought the worst of me. Ugh, I’m such an idiot.”

“Marinette,” Tikki whispered from her purse. “Don’t say those things about yourself.”

“I just don’t get why he was so persistent,” Marinette continued. “Luka is never pushy. So, what was that all about?! Whatever happened to waiting for me to speak up?”

“Uuum…” Tikki started hiding back in the purse.

“What am I supposed to say now?” She upped her tone an octave. “Oh, I’m sorry for acting like a total weirdo this month. I just got totally jealous when you started bringing Tina for practices because, it turns out, I’ve been in love with you this whole time, but didn’t notice because I was too distracted with Adrien. But now that it’s too late, I find it hard to be near you, because it hurts. UGH!” She raised her head. “WHY IS LOVE SO—hard.”

Marinette’s face burned. Standing in front of her was the young man she couldn’t get out of her thoughts. The one guy she didn’t want listening to her ramblings.

Luka stared at her, breathing heavily, but his expression was hard to read. He didn’t seem angry. However, he didn’t seem happy either. Marinette gulped, tempted to run again. Before she could decide, though, Luka moved to sit next to her.

They shared an awkward silence. Marinette still wanted to leave, but now it felt rude after making him run all the way there. Perhaps this was her punishment for handling the situation so badly.

“Tina started coming to practice because she was frustrated with me,” Luka said quietly, no longer looking at her. “She said that she had to see the girl I talked about for herself. And she was annoyed that I hadn’t made my move yet.”

Marinette turned her gaze to him, lips parted.

“I told her my brilliant plan to leave the girl be, so she could be happy with the boy she actually loved.” He chuckled. “Tina kept saying that I was an idiot, and that I should just ask you out. She pushed me time and time again to be more assertive. But I think her plan kinda backfired, since you think she and I are a thing.”

Luka turned to her at last.

“Marinette, I have never stopped loving you,” he said, a smile adorning his soft features. “But I have never wanted to push you into something you don’t want. Or, at least, I thought you didn’t want.”

Marinette did her best to suppress a smile of her own. “I did my best to hide what I wanted because I thought you moved on. And I didn’t want to make you feel like you were responsible for my happiness.”

“It would be an honor to be responsible for your happiness.” Luka placed a hand on her cheek, lightly stroking it with his thumb.

“So, you’re telling me we haven’t gotten together because of a dumb misunderstanding?”

Luka chuckled. “It seems like it.”

“I really am an idiot,” Marinette giggled.

“By your standards, so am I.”

The two of them laughed airily. They looked at each other, their cheeks rosy, hearts beating rhythmically with each other.

“Luka, um…” Marinette bit her lip.

The young man smiled knowingly. Using the hand cupped on her cheek, he softly pulled her in, lightly brushing his lips against hers. It was that small touch all Marinette needed to get the confidence to place her hand on his chest and press harder.

Luka took a breath right before deepening the kiss, using his other arm to bring her closer to him, hand on the small of her back. Marinette tried to follow suit. Unfortunately, the arm she tried to use was the one holding them steady. With two yelps, the couple fell backwards.

SPLASH

Marinette squeaked the second her head emerged from the freezing water. Luka’s hands were instantly on her shoulders.

“Marinette! Are you okay?!” he desperately asked, sitting on his knees.

The girl couldn’t help but snort. The snort immediately turned into giggles. And very soon, she was full on laughing. It didn’t take long for Luka to follow.

“Of course I would ruin our first kiss with my clumsiness,” she laughed.

“I wouldn’t have it any other way, with an angel like you,” Luka chuckled.

Despite the cold water, Marinette’s face managed to turn warm. She sighed wistfully.

“Me neither.”

Luka’s smile widened. Wider than Marinette had ever seen. This time there was no asking for permission. They both leaned towards each other at the same time, their lips meeting halfway. Marinette placed her hand on his jaw, while he embraced her with both of his arms.

No, it wasn’t perfect. But the fact that Luka loved it that way was what made it perfect for Marinette.

Content: Fluff, Angst, Canon Divergence, Aged-Up Characters

Pairing: Viperion | Luka Couffaine/ Ladybug | Marinette Dupain-Cheng

Header: @/katydoodles on Tumblr

Reblogs: Let me know that you enjoy my work and want to see more, so don’t forget to like and reblog (and comment in the tags. I love seeing people’s rambles in the tags)!

Sunday September 15th, 2019 - Missed Connection

She couldn’t believe it.

She knew she was a liar but this?

This was too far.

This shook her to the core.

She couldn’t leave.

She couldn’t chase her dreams.

For now at least.

But...

She had to let him go.

For now at least.

Monday September 16th, 2019 - Wings/Flight

He couldn’t believe it.

He knew she wanted to stay close to home

But not forever.

He thought about over and over as he played the last cord.

But not their last cord.

He’d come back for her.

On a song made of new wings.

And with those wings

He’d take them to new heights.

Tuesday September 17th, 2019 - Protection

Ladybug had to protect all of Paris.

Marinette had to protect those closest to her

But

Who was going to protect her?

Luka

No, he was gone and she didn’t want to bother him.

But then...

Who was going to protect him?

Who was going to protect them all?

Who indeed…

Wednesday September 18th, 2019 - Memories

Luka didn’t have many memories of his father.

It was always just him, his sister and his mom.

But

Ever since Marinette let him into her life

He’s been able to see what it’s like to have a father.

Makes him wonder what ever happened to his…

Thursday September 19th, 2019 - Faded Ink

When he first heard the notes of the melody

He wrote it down.

The more he heard it, the closer he wanted it be

He wrote it on his arm with a pen

When asked, he brushed it off as if it was just a random string of notes

He had his sister give him one of those temporary tattoos.

He was a bit confused as to why she didn't ask him what he was doing, but he should have known her better.

She didn’t have to ask him a thing,

But now, he couldn't hear that first melody.

The notes are so far away.

The ink all but faded.

Friday September 20th, 2019 - Comfort

She wished that he was there

Beside her

But he wasn’t.

He was on tour

Living his best life.

While she was stuck home

Living her life in fear.

She wished she could hold him.

She wished he could hold her.

Something of comfort.

Saturday September 21st, 2019 - Kwami Swap

“Verity Queen, Princess Justice, I am Scarlet Moth. Since the innocent isn’t to be believed anymore, I’m giving you both the power to expose the truth. Won’t you accept?”

Yes. She would get revenge

But first

“Luka.”

One of the few who was able to fight off the mass akuamization.

“My earrings.”

Being the dutiful boyfriend that he was, he took the earrings no questions asked and pocketed them.

However,

He looked up into the beautiful silver moons.

Please let me do this.

I’ll be waiting for you.

Thank You.

With one finally longing look at those beautiful blues, Marinette gave her answer.

“Yes, Scarlet Moth.”
