    Summary

    "Oh." Hollander has gone a little red, beneath his freckles. "I am from… French Canada? Québec? Do you know? Very… very small town there, no English, only French. I try to learn, but— is a bit hard."

    Ilya feels mildly stupid. He knew, obviously, that they speak French in Canada, but he didn’t know it was, like— some people’s only language. He’d sort of assumed everyone was fluent in both.

    "Huh. Cool."

    "Your English is very good," Hollander offers.

    Ilya laughs.

    "I mean, yeah— I grew up in Minneapolis."

    aka. the one where the language barrier is reversed. it changes everything.

    very curiously this fic made me really attached to gavin mckenna. unfortunately the kid is not going to be a canuck and being a leaf is a much more terrible fate so now im low-key upset for him?? brilliant writing all around and i cried at so many parts. love author's characterization of will & grace's relationship, and mack & aiden too. siblings were so well-done in this fic. the on-ice brotherhood, too. the little snippets of gabe & leno also warmed my heart because i have a soft spot for the bc line and they were so supportive of will in this :) idk what it is about those three but i love them so much. author really captured leno's loud-mouthed but well-meaning stupidity in the three paragraphs he was in.

    you can also tell that this author was wrecked by the matthews/marner divorce because this fic is radiating 1634 energy but im eating it up so no complaints whatsoever

    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

    University has been hard on Marinette. Making new friends and maintaining her grades is a lot easier said than done when she has to disappear at odd times to fight akumas. She's struggling, and with Alya away with family and Adrien painfully out of reach, she's never felt lonelier.

    If only she could talk to someone who really understood her struggles... but it's not like Chat Noir would know anything about loneliness. Right?
