Everyone in Paris doesn’t share one braincell, which means it’s a lot harder for Marinette or Adrien to transform. So they can’t just jump behind a bench or something
Marinette’s fingers are covered in bandages from constantly pricking her fingers while sewing
Adrien has dimples on his cheeks and they’re adorable
Marinette and Adrien sit next to each other because she actually pays attention when the teacher calls her name
Marinette bringing Adrien croissants because she knows he loves them
Adrien staring at Marinette and trying to count her freckles
Marinette doesn’t have pictures of Adrien on her walls or as her computer background (because I don’t care if he’s a model that’s just weird)
Marinette wearing her hair differently when she’s detransformed because the pigtails are a dead giveaway
After long nights of patrolling, Marinette and Adrien fall asleep against each other at school.
Marinette smells like vanilla and chocolate from all the baking.
Adrien loves sunflowers and has vases filled with them in his room, sunflower pins on his bag, and doodles them on his papers.
Marinette literally cannot dance, she’ll end up falling and possibly breaking something
Ladybug starts falling in love with Chat a lot faster than she anticipated and now they freaking love each other
Marinette stands up for herself a lot more because she’s iconic and loves herself
Adrien starts crushing on Marinette because she’s basically ladybug *cough cough* but she also has her own touches that make her so damn adorable
Alya and Nino actually believe Marinette when she calls out Lila
Chloé literally hates Lila with a passion and hopes she crawls back into whatever hole she came from
s/o to all the girls with hairy tummies, hairy arms, hairy knuckles, bushy eyebrows, deep set under-eye circles, and hyper-pigmentation of their skin. s/o to girls with “man-hands,” “masculine-framed bodies,” brown eyed, dark skinned, acne scarred bodies, and stretch-mark scarred bodies.
i hope that you love yourself as much as i love you and that someday you meet people who love you as much as you love yourself.
Article 13 is going into it’s final stages of voting.
If this gets through, it will allow many, many companies to abuse and misuse this article to take down as many memes, fan works, and even other independent creators on sites like YouTube, Facebook, and other websites INCLUDING Tumblr.
THE FAIR USE LAW AND SAFEHARBOR LAW WILL NO LONGER APPLY IN THE U.S OR IN OTHER COUNTRIES.
IT HAS ALREADY PASSED IN SEVERAL OTHER COUNTRIES.
WE CANNOT ALLOW THEM TO TAKE AWAY WHAT WE BUILT FOR THE INTERNET SO FAR.
So here is what you need to do to drag this article down.
1. Spread the word
I can’t stress this enough. The more attention this gets the more people we can get to take this down.
2. Make your own content
Make your own content on the matter and make sure it is clear to others that Article 13 is bad for every internet user involved.
3. If you live anywhere in Europe, contact your MEPs
Ask them if they approve of the article and why. If they do approve of it, try to convince them in a clear, reasonable, and most sensible way possible that this law is BAD.
The article itself is way to vague about what it’s conveying to its people.
Saying that as long as the use of said internet memes or content is good as long as it’s in “good faith.”
We cannot let some shoddy government tell us what we can and cannot post.
FREE SPEECH IS A HUMAN RIGHT. NOT A PRIVILEGE.
Here’s a video on Article 13 that Film Theory made on the matter. It will explain things better than I can.
Okay, so let’s real talk real quick. Y’all remember season 2 of miraculous? Episode 3? The Prime Queen one? Kay so honestly, that episode was a masterpiece when it came to Alya’s character, because like, we knew she was good, but she’s actually: ‘Hey I was gonna watch a show about Ladybug (her favourite superhero by the way) with my family, but my best friend called me to help her babysit so imma do that instead.’ levels of good. And yes:
She was gonna watch the show with her family if Marinette hadn’t called. But Marinette did, and so now Alya is helping her babysit, but she gets to watch the show anyway so its fine. Then Marinette starts babbling: “Oh! I forgot to…uh, tell my bakery something. They’re in the parents downstairs.”
And Alya’s confused because who wouldn’t be? It’s Marinette mixing up her words when she’s nervous. And Alya knows this. She knows Marinette’s way with words when she’s nervous, so she’s thinking: “Why is Marinette nervous?” Now let’s consider for a moment, what if Alya knew Marinette was Ladybug? or at least suspected it at this point. Ladybug isn’t on TV, needs to get on TV and Marinette is very nervously trying to leave the room as quickly as possible with a half thought out lie: “Sometimes it can take a while.”
“They don’t always understand me.”
Look at her face! This is the face she makes when Marinette is trying to create an excuse to see Adrien, but she’s not trying to see Adrien, she’s trying to leave the room! Why would leaving the room be so important if she wasn’t trying to go somewhere else? So Let’s say Alya knows Marinette is Ladybug and at this point is humouring her by pretending to believe her lie. That would make sense. If not, Alya would have probably offered to go talk to Marinette’s parents with her so that they could get back to the show quicker, but she didn’t. Instead she’s choosing to go along with this lie about her talking to her parents (which probably ends up taking HOURS in show time, considering by the time Marinette gets back its dark and Manon is asleep) so that Marinette can leave sooner. So that Ladybug can go on TV.
Plus, when Marinette starts rambling on (which I remind you, Alya knows Marinette does when she’s nervous) she TELLS her to leave:
Marinette: “And when I explain, w-actually its not their fault they-”
Alya: “Marinette?”
Marinette: *nervous* “Yes?”
Alya:“GO!”
Maybe so she can get to the TV station on time?
And then about a minute after Marinette has left, Ladybug finally arrives on screen? Alya HAS to know. She’s a good person, and not to mention a REALLY good journalist. Heck, she get’s the fox miraculous in episode 10 because she knows how to sus people out, figure out what they want and make an illusion. So to say she’d be able to do the same thing for her best friend is an understatement. She also get’s it because Ladybug trusts her. “What reason does Ladybug have to trust me?” Alya might think in confusion. Or: “What reason does Marinette have to trust me?” Alya might think in confidence.
And at the end of the episode when Marinette finally get’s back? CONVENIENTLY after the akuma attack?: “I’m so sorry Alya! I had no idea it would take so long to talk to my parents!” Alya isn’t even mad, even though Marinette left her for so long AFTER inviting her over and while Marinette was gone she got kidnapped! Personally? I’d have some harsh words along the lines of: “Why were you gone so long? What the heck!?”. Unless of course, my friend was the superhero that ended up saving me. Which Marinette is. And Alya probably knows she is.
So bottom line is, this episode has convinced me that Alya absolutely knows Marinette is Ladybug, or at the very least suspects it. Why else would she be so insistent on letting Marinette know it would be okay if she knew in episode 10? when she tells Marinette if she was Ladybug, she’d cover for her, help her get out of class, bring her work. She knows, and she’s very subtly trying to let Marinette know that. But episode 10 taught her that Marinette thinking her identity is unknown gives her peace of mind, so she won’t try to tell Marinette anymore. Because a worried Marinette is a worried Ladybug, and that won’t do Paris any good.
So yeah, I like this episode and I couldn’t stop giggling like a little bitch through my pot noodle while I watched it because Alya is amazing and I just love her so much :3
