    Summary

    “Death.” The boy says and Death’s smiles, all sharp teeth and glowering eyes that instil fear in everything living. The humans who had summoned him before this child had all but cowered in his presence, words failing them as they trembled in fear before him. But, this child held no such regard. The boy’s green eyes gleamed with fascination.

    “Yes, child. You have summoned me.” Death acknowledges, and the boy’s eyes widen at the confirmation. “What is it that you want from me?”

    He can already make the assumptions. From all his years of existing, Death knows what mortals want from him. Vitality, longevity and power. He peers down at the small frame of the young boy, who seems to hesitate momentarily, before taking in a deep breath.

    The boy looks up at him, his eyes determined and Death wonders what the boy plans on asking him. Would it be wealth, riches, fantasies? The boy opens his mouth and speaks,

    “Will you be my friend?”

    “…Huh?”

    Or.

    Adrien meets Plagg when he was a child. This changes everything and yet nothing at all.

    Summary

    Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Adrien Agreste are the unsuspecting stars of The Adrien and Marinette Show, a reality television program filmed 24/7 through thousands of hidden cameras and broadcast to a worldwide audience. Unbeknownst to them, the Paris they call home is actually an elaborate set, constructed under a dome and populated with thousands of actors and crew members.

    Thomas Astruc, the show’s creator and executive producer, seeks to capture their authentic, unscripted emotions as they grow up. But a lie can only be maintained for so long, and as their world begins to unravel around them, Marinette and Adrien realise that all is not what it seems.

    A Truman Show AU.

    Summary

    Chat Noir and Ladybug struggle to balance the responsibilities of college life with their own personal trauma and the weight of the entire city of Paris resting on their shoulders. It doesn't help that they're quickly becoming the only people either of them can truly trust, and their relationship is getting less professional by the day...

    Chat Noir and Ladybug receive their Miraculouses in their early twenties, they both attend the same university though they've not met in their civilian identities.

    Alternate universe with a male Marinette, Akumas have vastly worse effects on people, and Gabriel Agreste's treatment of his son takes a much darker turn.

    LadyNoir centric fic where 90% of the focus is on their developing relationship and how they tackle the mounting pressure of their lives and the duty they've been chosen for. Lots of helping each other through their respective trauma and trying to cope with all new kinds of trauma being superheroes is going to bring them. Fic is planned to follow the loose structure of the show's entire plot with some heavy rewrites to accommodate higher stakes and a far darker tone.
