《The Gift: A Miraculous Fanfiction》Pictures

Homework. On the second day of school. Unbelievable. Marinette sighed as she worked on her assignments.
Hopefully she could finish up quickly and actually get to bed at a reasonable time. Just one more subject and she'd be all done.
She was so focused that she almost didn't hear the tapping coming from the ceiling.
Tap tap tap.
Her pencil froze mid-sentence and she looked upwards. She cautiously stood and made her way up the steps to her loft.
"Marinette?" a voice called to her as she cracked open the hatch. She then pushed it wide open, revealing Chat Noir on her balcony.
"Hi," she said, giving him a confused look. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm sorry if I'm bothering you. I just wanted to make sure that you were okay. You seemed a little upset last night."
"You're not bothering me," was all she replied.
"Oh, that's good."
She stared up at him for a moment. "I'm sorry," she squeaked, realizing that she was being rude. "Please come inside."
He happily jumped down through the hatch and landed on her bed next to her. Okay, this wasn't awkward at all.
"Follow me," Marinette said, climbing off the bed and down the steps.
"So what are you up to tonight?" Chat Noir asked her once they made it down.
"Just homework. You know, typical exciting stuff," she told him.
He smiled at her. "Very exciting."
She smiled back. "I heard about the akuma attack today. How did that go?"
"It was fine," he replied, walking around the room. "As akuma attacks go, it was pretty straightforward."
"You and Ladybug seem to work well together."
"Yeah, we do. We're really great partners." He stopped at Marinette's desk, looking at the pictures on the wall. Her collection of Adrien Agreste pictures were still hanging up.

Marinette noticed where he was looking and hurried over to him. "I, uh, meant to take those down," she admitted, a little embarrassed.
"So, are you like, super into fashion or something?" he asked, trying to lessen her embarrassment.
"Yes I am. But to be honest, I used to be in love with the guy in the pictures. That's the real reason I put them up."
Used to be. Those words hurt more than he was expecting them to. "Adrien Agreste, right? I know him."
Marinette nodded, then reached over and pulled a picture off the wall.
Ouch. "Did you fall in love with him because he's a model?"
"No," she said, taking another picture down. "I fell in love with him because he... gave me... an umbrella?" A smile crossed her lips. "Wow, it sounds really lame when I say it outloud," she said, chuckling.
Chat Noir thought back. He gave her the umbrella on his first day of school. She had been in love with him for an entire year and he had never noticed?
"That's a very strange reason to fall in love with someone," he said, watching her remove another picture.
"I mean, it wasn't really the umbrella. It was..." she paused. "That was the day I met him. There was this big misunderstanding about how chewing gum ended up on my seat. I originally thought that he had put it there, and that he was just like Chloé."
She removed another picture. "But after school he came up to me and explained what really happened. Then he gave me his umbrella because it was raining. And just for a second, I saw something in him. I don't really know how to explain it." She pulled another. "It's like, I could see who he really was. Not the façade that he puts up as the face of his father's brand. I saw the loving heart inside of him." She reached up and pulled off another picture. "Of course, it doesn't hurt that he's easy on the eyes," she said, staring at the photo in her hand.

Chat Noir had been holding his breath while she had been speaking. He couldn't think of anything to say in response to what he just heard.
Marinette grabbed another picture and smiled looking at it. "This one was always my favorite," she whispered.
He tore his eyes away from her face to see the picture. It was one of him in his regular clothes with a simple white background. He wasn't dressed up for a photoshoot or in a nice location. "Why was it your favorite?"
She continued admiring the picture. "He looks like himself in this one." After a minute she slowly put it into the pile and reached for another.
"Why don't you keep that one? You know, since it's your favorite?" he asked. Or keep all of them.
"No," she replied shaking her head. "He's my friend, I don't want him to feel uncomfortable."
"I'm sure he wouldn't mind," Chat Noir insisted.
"It's better this way," she said quietly.
"Okay," he started. "But if someone put a picture of me up on their wall, I would feel flattered. I wouldn't feel uncomfortable."
Marinette smiled. "I guess I'll have to get a picture of you and Ladybug then," she said, glancing at him from the corner of her eye.
"I could even autograph it for you," he said smiling.
"I would like that." She reached up and grabbed the last picture, placing it on top of the pile. "There, now I have plenty of room for my 'Chat Noir' shrine."
He couldn't help but laugh. "I can't wait to see it Princess!"
Marinette laughed too, and bumped her shoulder into his.

Ode to Freud
For those who do not understand the reference, "wish fulfillment" is before anything a term created by Sigmund Freud in the 1900's. In psychology it is a state of satisfying unconscious needs and desires by the use of fantasy and delusion. In literature it is the very base of fictional work, but also the name of a style of writing where the author sacrifices the key elements of good storytelling in order to fulfill his own psychopathic, neurotic or perverse needs and desires, usually through the use of the characters in weird and forced situations. What I meant by the title of this story is that it is a trashy, badly written, shitty story about me getting some wish fulfillment by the use of some characters and a fictional world of my creation. Not the good kind of fulfillment, since my wishes are of the bad kind and I intend to fulfill those, not yours. Also, being a total amateur and not writing a proper plot before starting are two big indicators that this story is going to go bad. I guess Royal Road call this kind of stories the "Mary Sue" kind. So, unless you are a very ugly piece of trash (at least as much as I am) don’t bother reading it. Now, if you ARE messed up on the level of a clinically depressive, lightly suicidal, lolicon/shotacon aligned morbidly obese hikikomori vermin who sold his virginity to a prostitute and is currently living at the costs of his widowed mother after expending all the money he got from his father’s inheritance, all the while masturbating furiously to beast/furry dickgirl hentai, then be welcomed. Please feel free to get a serving at my antidepressants and also at the canned tuna I have stored in the fridge. There may be some cheese somewhere, and I am pretty sure I bought some juice the other day, but I have no idea where it is. Anyway. You may dislike what I write because of all the amauteur(ish) writing, or you may not. Who knows. Give it a try and write a comment. It gets lonely writing to no one. Also, feel free to grant me inspiration not only by making comments about the world and/or characters, but specially by suggesting a music for me to listen while I write the next chapter. Be warned : I do get influenced easily by the background music I listen while writing. If you exist, of course. I'm seriously doubting anyone has read anything after the "lolicon hikikomori" thing. Also, I have a tiny dick.Just so you can feel better about yourself a little more. Or maybe I have just degraded psychologically a little more and now I am into shame-play. I wonder if the psychiatrist would increase my meds a bit if I told her about it.Hope I never get to penispanick, though! Self-mutilation, especially of the castration type, would be baaaad. After all, I do like my prostitutes. And having sex with them when I can afford it. Oh, yeah, the story. I will just write the first chapter in a few moments.Until later, b(i)each.

His sovereignty was one seized by travail force. His victims were slaughtered to their grave, never to be spoken of again. The cost of power was only his humanity and name, both stained in blood.The other stayed innocent.She followed a path of a simple, conservative life.

Chosen for an Emperor, whose very name renders shivers down one's spine and who's sinful deeds haunt the empire's dreams. She has no choice.
