    Summary

    She drafted the plan. He crashed it…and stole her pen.

    Marinette Dupain-Cheng lives by structure. By day, she’s a polished journalist at The Daily Fold. By night, she’s Ladybug, an anonymous columnist famed for ruthless honesty about modern love. After a brutal public humiliation by her ex, Marinette retaliates by publishing The Impossible List: ten wildly unrealistic standards for any future partner.

    Enter Adrien Agreste. Formula One’s disgraced prodigy, freshly back from exile after a career-ending scandal and a year the world refuses to forget. He wants redemption, privacy, and one secret left buried.

    An airport meet-cute sparks the unexpected, and Marinette is soon assigned to follow Adrien’s high-stakes comeback—despite knowing nothing about F1 and swearing off complicated men. As they race across continents and headlines, her Impossible List begins to unravel. Adrien isn’t just meeting her standards; he’s redefining them.

    But when the truth behind his fall threatens to explode, Marinette must choose: publish the story that could define her career, or protect the man who’s quietly claimed her heart.

    Summary

    In this fic, Adrien never went to school, so Adrien and Marinette never met. Marinette never really had a crush on anyone, but she still consistently rejected Chat Noir’s advances because she thought he was immature and flirted with anything that moved. Just like in canon, eventually he stopped trying and they settled into their routine of being partners and defeating akumas every week or so. Everything essentially kept the same pattern as the first 2-3 seasons.

    In this fic, they are aged up a bit. They’ve both finished their high school years and university. They’re both 22 years old and we’re starting in the summer right after they both graduated from university. Adrien is still modeling for Gabriel while Marinette is trying to start her own couture design business.

    Chat Noir gets awarded the “Paris’s Most Eligible Bachelor” award. Marinette happens to see the show on the TV and starts to feel jealous that he’s openly dating now (which he hadn’t done before). She decides that she wants him, so first she tries to woo him as Ladybug, but he shuts that down. So she decides to try as Marinette. Cue shenanigans.

    Written for the Miraculous Big Bang 2025.
