Summary
Being a superheroine is already tough for Marinette, although only a few weeks have passed since she became the miraculous Ladybug.
Unstylish and uncomfortable suits don't help.
Luckily for her peace of mind, she is a skilled designer, and it won't take her long to fix the issue.
But, now that Chat Noir has decided to make a similar change, he might find out things about his modelling job that... Are a bit more darker than what he's accustomed to.
(In a world which is more similar to ours in terms of boundaries with celebrities, our superheroes have to fight against akumas, supervillains and more normal, although just as disgusting, people.)

Summary
Marius Dupain-Cheng always knew she was a girl, no matter how much the whole world told her otherwise. So when a strange little red creature gives her the opportunity to assume, even if only momentarily, her "true self", Marius gladly accepts.
Soon, a new routine is established. During the day, she is a "strange" and reclusive student, a victim of bullying for being trapped in a body that never truly belonged to her. But at night, Marius takes on the mantle of Ladybug, the most famous and beloved heroine of Paris.
However, as the years go by and the countless challenges to embrace her true gender identity persist, Marius begins to realize that Chat Noir's declarations of love might be much more than just simple flirtation.
But what would Chat say if he found out that his Lady is a transgender girl? Would he be willing to love Ladybug's civilian form as well?

Summary
Adrien has mastered the art of the smile. Even while his mind is on poor behavior, when he's caught beneath a barrage of unkind thoughts to himself, he's still able to keep his smile. Attend his friends' parties, maintain small talk, get through the day — and hopefully his friends won't realize how messed up he really is.
Everyone is out-pacing him. While he's barely getting out of bed in the morning, his friends are making waves, changing lives, getting engaged.
He can't even get his girlfriend to text him back.
So, sure. Maybe he's not in the best head space right now — but 'suicidal'? Ladybug's certainly just reading too deeply into things. But if her concern for Chat Noir's mental state is enough to get her reaching out, well, he won't turn down the opportunity to chat with a friend. Besides, Ladybug seems to be having a rough go of it, too. Maybe they can help each other out.
(a Ladynoir hurt/comfort texting fic, with established Adrienette)

Summary
"Let me make sure I have this right," Chat Noir said. "Ladybug got not one, not two, but five of her friends akumatized at once... because she didn't want to tell them she was Ladybug."
Ladybug laughed, but this time it wasn't a joyful sound. It was hard and dry, like a month-old jelly doughnut. "Yeah, that about sums up how absurd my life has been recently. I didn't need to be so nasty, but in my defense, I was panicking; they almost found the Miracle Box. Anyway, after you left... after the fight... we all made up and they promised to wait until I was ready to tell them my secret and stop pushing me. But Alya stayed behind after everyone else went home, and I think she was expecting me to tell it to her anyway. I almost did, but I... didn't."

A Miraculous Ladybug AU where Marinette does not reveal her secret to Alya after Gang of Secrets, but to Adrien instead. Somewhere along the way, Chloé finds redemption.
