Marichat has a minion!

Ladybug the Seven-Spotted Ladybug

A Kitty and His Princess

What is a Marichat you ask? Marichat is one side of a highly sophisticated love square, most specifically the pairing of Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Chat Noir. This ever so highly sophisticated love square consists of two people. Yup. Just two. No. Not a line. A square. Trust me. I know what I’m talking about.

See? Two people! And the best part? They have absolutely no clue! Their superhero counterparts have no idea what-so-ever what the other person’s civilian identity is. None. At. All.

Angst much? Yes. Delicious kitty-buggy angst. So delicious…

The Love Square Explained

Going from left to right, top to bottom, in a squarish circle: Chat Noir is in Love with Ladybug but Ladybug’s feelings for him are fond, but mostly neutral. Ladybug is in love with Adrien Agreste and, wait for it… Adrien Agreste is in love with Ladybug. Now, Adrien Agreste is friends with Marinette Dupain-Cheng but has no romatic feelings towards her. On the other hand, Marinette Dupain-Cheng is crazy in love with Adrien Agreste. Marinette Dupain-Cheng, of course, has friendly but neutral feelings towards Chat Noir and Chat Noir has friendly and mostly neutral feelings towards her.

Dizzy yet? It’s just so beautiful!

How this pair WORKS!

Taken from http://miraculous-ladybug-fanon.wikia.com:

In-canon, both Ladybug and Chat Noir are (not-so) blissfully unaware of their secret identities, thinking that it would keep them from becoming too attached to one another.

Marinette has a crush on Chat Noir's secret identity Adrien, but it far too afraid of rejection to tell him how she feels. Chat Noir has feelings for Ladybug, broadcasting them through casual flirting, but Ladybug's interest in Adrien and a barrier of professionalism keeping them apart.

Chat Noir has encountered Marinette outside of her secret identity more than once, such as in "Evillustrator" when Ladybug asks her to look after her secret identity, since the villain of the episode Evillustrator has his attention on her.

Because they do not know each other's secret identities, this removes those barriers when Marinette (as Marinette) talks to Chat Noir (as Chat Noir). Marinette is able to talk to Chat at her own level, allowing her to talk openly and confidently to Chat as opposed to her usual nervous demeanor around Adrien. This could even cause her to admit her feelings for Adrien to him, allowing her to essentially confess her feelings to him without even knowing it.

Chat Noir is able to speak to Marinette in his usually manner without the need to keep his image, and would even be able to confess his more sincere feelings to Ladybug without even knowing it.

With this openness to one another, this could cause the two to eventually fall in love under these identities, eventually leading to the realization that those they longed for were also the ones they then fell in love with.

See? It’s like magic! Angsty kitty buggy magic…

Overlay edit, profile, and story (except for credited bits) by me.

Marichat is based off of the character pairing of Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Chat Noir from the French television show Miraculous Ladybug. I ONLY watch this in French unless I don't want to wait for subtitles then I watch the icky English dubbed. My French is not that good. *le sigh* My Franglais though is totally legit.
