Summary
Marinette catches a glimpse of someone, jumping instinctively before realizing that she’s looking at a mirror—and she doesn’t recognise what she sees.
“Tikki,” she breathes, words moving around her lips but barely making a sound. “What is this? W-who am I? When am I?
“You are still Marinette Dupain-Cheng,” Tikki says calmly. “You are still Ladybug, and you are still the Guardian of the Miraculous. You’ve just woken up ten years later.”
Or: Marinette wakes up in the body of her 24-year-old self in 2025, left to figure out how to get back to her own timeline while navigating the many confusing changes that come with the future. Back in 2015, Adrien finds himself face-to-face with an older, stronger, and more confident version of the Ladybug he's always been in love with.

Summary
In the wake of a summer that Adrien never wanted to end, all that he wishes to push away comes back to haunt him when the school years starts again: self-doubt from identities that feel no more real than anything else; ghosts of parents who still talk to him; and most all, a fear that the people he loves will leave him in time, too.
however, maybe the person who can relate most to him is the one he's never far from.

Summary
“Marinette,” he said.
“Adrien,” she said.
“I’m real drunk right now,” he said up at the sky, and she laughed. He smiled a little bit, and then he looked down at her, and her breath caught in her throat. He was still smiling, but it was the sort of smile that priests had at funerals, grieved and holy. “So I’m going to ask. What if we just did it?”
She didn’t even have to ask.
“What if- what if we just did it? I mean, can we not?” he asked her, his shoulders drawing up, his posture sloping towards her, bending to her like he was begging. “I think- I think after everything we’ve done, after how it feels to be with you- I think maybe we should. Can we?”
It’s not like this hadn’t come up before, it was just that this was the first time he was so honest about it, the first time he looked her in the eyes and seemed like he wanted a real answer.
And from the way his face was falling, he was getting it. She hadn’t even opened her mouth.
