Where le fuck is Ladybug
look, I’m not saying I want Marinette’s balcony and regular visits from Chat Noir but ,,, that’s exactly what I’m saying 😅
hawky has to get his shit together man
me remembering that chat noir actually agreed to sunday breakfast with marinette’s family:

Petty Quartet
Context: Marinette has been averaging four afternoons a week at the Agreste household and Gabriel and Nathalie have pretty much adopted her as their second part-time child.
Gabriel: Marinette, you really spend a lot of time here
Marinette: Guess I do
Nathalie: You’re nearly like a second child to this family
Adrien: Only sees her a limited time, criticises her work, pushes her to be perfect, and spends more time with an assistant than dad? It checks out
Marinette: Except I don’t get driven everywhere, can go out with friends when I want, have friends other than Chloe, and am happy
Adrien: You’re right. It doesn’t add up
_______________________________
Marinette: I’m really sorry but I can’t come to study at your place this week. My parents are grounding me
Gabriel (overhearing): Nathalie, get Gorilla to bring the car around we’re going to the bakery
Marinette: You really don’t have to. It’s within-
Gabriel: I’m going to lecture them on the damage isolating a child and denying them social interactions with people their own age can cause
Adrien: So was I the test group for this hypothesis?
Gabriel: Pardon? I was talking about the impact it would have on me.
Adrien: No I was just wondering when you figured out social interaction was good
___________________________________
Tom: I thank you for having Marinette study at your house and have accepted her, but she needed to be punished
Adrien: Why not just force her to practice piano 4 hours a day?
Gabriel: Not the time
Adrien: It never is
___________________________________
Gabriel: So a week without Marinette. What ever shall we do?
Adrien: Spend time with your actual child?
Gabriel: He disappears all the time so that’s off the table
Adrien: I know, spend time together watching a movie so he doesn’t have to sneak out
Gabriel: …..
Adrien: Don’t worry about it. It’ll just give me a chapter of my biography “My Traumatic Childhood: How I was raised by the assistant”
Nathalie: Don’t you mean “My traumatic childhood: Growing up with a rock climbing wall, massive tv, and foosball table in my two story bedroom”?
Gabriel: Chapter 3: My difficult teenage years of having a rich father
Nathalie: Chapter 4: How to make a girl lose interest? Call her a ‘good friend’
Adrien: I think I liked it better when you weren’t here
Gabriel: Chapter 5: Complaining when I get what I want
Adrien: Just because I have material possessions does not mean my childhood wasn’t traumatic or you are a good parent
Gabriel:…. Chapter 6: Dad set me up for success and I have first world problems

Marinette came back the following week. Everyone had just spent the week planning out pettiness and small pranks.
Gabriel “grounded” Marinette, she yelled “you’re not my real dad!” Adrien chimes in “at this stage he’s barely mine”
Marinette gave Gabriel a device Max designed that alerts you when a person is near so you can avoid all social interaction.
Adrien and Marinette team up to constantly tell Nathalie she is running late, give Gabriel parenting advice, and even put up a fake ‘for sale’ notice as the place is so empty and lifeless they thought it was abandoned
