Lila is also often an opponent in fanfictions. Since Lila is a master manipulator, Marinette has to fight not only her physical attacks if she gets akumatized but also her lies and schemes. It makes for a complex battle as Marinette has to expose Lila's true nature while also saving the day.
Sometimes it's Hawk Moth himself. Fanfiction writers like to explore scenarios where Marinette directly confronts Hawk Moth. This could be a battle of wits as well as powers, as Marinette tries to figure out his identity and stop him from akumatizing more people.
A common opponent is Chloe when she gets akumatized. In fanfiction, their battles can be more intense and personal. Marinette, as Ladybug, has to deal with Chloe's over - the - top attacks and her mean - spirited nature while trying to purify the akuma.
In some fanfictions, Marinette might fight against an alternate version of herself. This could be a version that has been corrupted or turned evil. It would be a really intense battle as she has to face someone with the same skills and knowledge as her. She'd have to dig deep and find the strength within herself to overcome this internal conflict.
One common theme is the exploration of their unrequited love. In the show, Marinette has a crush on Adrien, but in fanfictions with Luka, she may start to realize her feelings for him. Another theme is the power of music. Since Luka is associated with music, it often plays a role in bringing them closer, like Luka writing a song for Marinette.
The relationship with Adrien is a huge theme. It could be about how they navigate their relationship when this big change occurs. Some fanfictions show them having to grow up quickly and become more responsible for each other and the baby. It also might explore how their identities as Ladybug and Chat Noir play into their new family situation.
A really interesting fanfiction idea could be that Lila and Marinette switch personalities for a day. This would be a comical yet thought - provoking situation. Lila would have to deal with Marinette's responsibilities and kindness, while Marinette might struggle with Lila's devious ways. It could lead to both of them having a new perspective on each other.
One possible fanfiction could be about Marinette's daily life with Tikki. For example, Marinette could be having a tough day at school, getting bullied by Chloe. Tikki, being her kwami, tries to cheer her up by suggesting they make some special macarons. They then spend the evening in Marinette's room, sharing stories and laughing, which helps Marinette forget about her bad day.
Well, this kind of fanfiction could start with Marinette making a mistake while using the Miraculous. Then she finds herself in the form of a Kwami. She might be really tiny and have to find ways to get around. She could hitch rides on people's shoulders or use her small size to her advantage when it comes to spying on Hawk Moth. And she would definitely have to deal with the fact that she can't just transform back into her normal self right away, leading to all sorts of comical and tense situations.
There are many interesting fanfictions about Marinette and Luka. Some might focus on their relationship development outside of the superhero chaos. For example, a fanfiction could explore how they go on a simple date, sharing their interests like Marinette's fashion design and Luka's music.
One possible fanfiction could be about Marinette using her flexibility in a new way to design fashion. For example, she might create a line of clothing that is both stylish and allows for maximum movement, inspired by her own experiences as Ladybug. She could hold a fashion show where models are shown doing acrobatic stunts while wearing her designs, highlighting the flexibility aspect of the clothes.
There are many fanfictions where Marinette sings. In some, her singing might be related to her expressing her feelings for Adrien. For example, she could sing a song she wrote herself about her secret love for him. It adds a creative and emotional aspect to the story.
I really like 'The Hidden Bond'. In this fanfiction, Marinette discovers a new side to Cat Noir that she hadn't seen before. It's full of cute moments and some really well - written dialogue. It also has an interesting plot that keeps you hooked from start to finish.
