I often see people make Sliver as Sonic & Shadow son.

So much for freedom of speech. Our first amendment rights are dead.

Because God forbid you are critical of our new "god-king" Trump 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻

really is bizarre the way fandoms largely do not like women at ALL. it’s been happening for ages but when you see people straight up just hating on women characters more often now (+ the general rise in misogyny) and then you come on here and everyone’s just pretending women don’t even EXIST in any media ever. it’s like that’s not much better. fandom isn’t activism but it does reveal people’s internal biases. like women being excluded, sidelined and erased in everythingggg. people will take characteristics that are compelling in a female character and give it to a man in fan content just so they don’t have to engage with a woman ever. fics, fan art, ships, etc. a hollywood produced movie/tv show won’t even sideline a woman as much as the average fandom blogger will

How are we as a fandom not talking about this moment.

DID THEY MAKE ARIN AUTISTIC? BC THIS IS ABOUT AS CLOSE TO CANON AS YOU CAN GET!

This was def not on my bingo card but I'm obsessed.

Chapter 1

Adriens pov

I stood at the gate of the terminal with Natalie, I wasn’t quite sure who I was supposed to be looking for but I got the idea when a boy nearly identical to me timidly stepped out. Natalie began to speak while waving him over “this is your cousin, he’s moving in with us for a little while due to issues with his father and at school. His mother hoped that sending him here would put a stop to his fathers actions while getting him away from certain people in his school.”

I wasn’t entirely sure what any of what she had said meant but I figured I would just ask him later if I wanted any semblance of an explanation.

“You are la Lloyd correct?” Natalie says to him earning a grimace

“it’s just Lloyd, but yes. Is Mr Agreste not here?”

“No. He had to take care of some important business so he sent me with Adrien to come get you.” Natalie at least had the sense to look sympathetic, the kid had just come from a whole other continent and the guy he’s supposed to live with isn’t even here to meet him.

“Alright, well it’s really stuffy in here and I just spent 12 hours on an airplane (pulled that number out of my ass) so I’m gonna go get my bags so we can leave.”

The car ride was awkward to put it lightly, despite how it had sounded in the airport Lloyd’s French wasn’t as good as I thought it was and my Mandarin wasn’t quite close enough to ningargon to really hold a conversation. I could tell that Natalie didn’t really know what to make of Lloyd which I could understand because I wasn’t sure about him either. What I did know was that plagg was interested in him, I had to shove him back in my pocket every couple minutes to prevent him from flying out and I knew Lloyd was getting suspicious of it.

When we got to the house I could tell Lloyd was surprised, his eyes went really wide as he looked around and I couldn’t help but laugh a little bit.

“This bigger than your old place?” I teased leading him to look at me with a sarcastic expression

“I lived in a two bedroom apartment one room in there is probably bigger than my house.” Natalie glanced back at us as we erupted into giggles, I wasn’t expecting us to hit it off this well and I could tell she wasn’t either. I couldn’t help but think that maybe Lloyd being around would make my home feel a little less cold.

Why are they so rich. Like genuinely what are they doing with all this money other then buying a massive house and doing nothing in it, furniture is so scarce in here and I bet it’s because not even the best interior designer in the world can figure out what to do with all of this space. During the ‘grand tour’ I discovered that they don’t even have anything in some of the rooms of the house and it might be the ‘grew up in an apartment’ in me but everything about this place screamed money hoarding. I did find out that Gabriel Agreste is a world famous fashion designer and his son was a model, and while it did make a lot of sense I just couldn’t see modeling being something Adrien would enjoy even though I’ve only known him for like four hours now.

“This is the state of the art security system that will be triggered whenever there is an akuma alert within 500 meters of the property.” Natalie mentioned while walking past a control panel. This made me freeze ‘what the hell is an akuma’ I thought to myself as Natalie kept walking, not noticing my pause. At the end of the tour, I sat in my new room with Adrien playing cards.

“So what is an akuma?” He looked up at this, as if not expecting these words to come out of my mouth.

“Oh it’s these evil butterflies that possess people with negative emotions and try to destroy paris to lure out ladybug and chat noir to try and get their miraculous.” I stared at him for a solid minute before i could even begin to comprehend any of the words he just said.

“You’re telling me I left one city to get rid of an insane maniac trying to destroy the place just to move somewhere where everyone is at risk of becoming an evil maniac trying to destroy the city if they get a little bit sad?” Adrien laughed a little at this

“yeah pretty much” i glanced out the window making sure not to make eye contact as I began making my decision.

“So how is it handled, do you have super heroes or is the police force competent enough to defeat them?” Adrien seems ed a little shocked at my immedimmediate assumption of super heroes

“yeah actually we have two superhero’s in Paris, ladybug and chat noir. They defeat and purify the akumas and the revert Paris to the state it was in before the akuma attacked.” I know he thinks I missed the stars in his eyes when he brought up ladybug but I’m not that dumb, Mr fanboy also seemed like he knew more about the heroes than he was letting on, I humored the thought that he could be one of the superheroes, I know most would be certain he wasn’t but something about his face when he talked about them held an air of familiarity that went beyond admiration he knew more and in order for me to decide if my assistance was needed I needed to know what he knew.
