There's also 'The Fake Dating Plan'. In this one, Marinette and Adrien come up with the idea of fake dating to make Lila jealous. It's full of humorous moments as they try to act like a couple in front of everyone, and there are some really sweet interactions between them that make you root for their relationship, even if it started as fake.
It's popular because it adds a new dynamic to the relationship between Ladybug and Chat Noir. The idea of them faking a relationship brings in a lot of comedic and romantic elements. It allows for new situations and character development that we don't always see in the original series.
One way to fake a marriage could be having the characters stage a big fake wedding ceremony with all the trimmings. And they'd have to keep up the act in front of friends and family. Maybe they even have to deal with unexpected challenges that threaten to expose the truth.
One popular plotline is where Ladybug and Chat Noir start dating in secret while still maintaining their superhero personas. They have to navigate the challenges of hiding their relationship from Hawk Moth and their friends. Another plotline could be a love triangle, perhaps with a new character coming in and being interested in either Ladybug or Chat Noir, causing some jealousy and drama. There are also plotlines where they finally reveal their identities to each other and start a more normal dating relationship, having to deal with the shock and adjustment of knowing who is really behind the mask.
One common theme is the exploration of their secret identities. Since they are Ladybug and Chat Noir in the original show, in the dating fanfiction, there's often the added tension of whether or not to reveal their true selves to each other. It adds an extra layer of complexity to their relationship.
One good Miraculous Ladybug fanfiction is 'A Different Perspective'. It offers a unique take on the relationship between Marinette and Adrien by exploring their characters from the point of view of a new character in the story. It has great character development and interesting plot twists.
Some popular tropes in Miraculous Ladybug Ladynoir Dating Fanfiction include the 'cultural exchange' trope. Since they come from different backgrounds (even if we don't know all the details in the show), they could introduce each other to different aspects of their cultures during their dates. For instance, Chat Noir might take Ladybug to a place that is significant in his family's history. Another is the 'miscommunication' trope. They might misunderstand each other's intentions during a date, leading to some drama and then a sweet resolution. And the 'unexpected date' trope, where they end up on a date in a very unexpected way, like being trapped in a location due to an akuma's power and then making the best of it by having a sort of impromptu date.
Obviously, Ladybug and Chat Noir are the most popular. Their dynamic as superheroes and the potential for a secret relationship makes them the center of many fanfictions. Fans love to explore how they would interact in a romantic relationship while still keeping it a secret from the world. Their alter - egos, Marinette and Adrien, are also very popular in these fanfictions as they bring in the normal - life aspect of the relationship.
There's also 'Adrienette's First Date Mishaps'. This fanfiction is really interesting as it shows how things don't always go smoothly for them on their dates. It has a lot of humorous moments, like when Adrien accidentally spills a drink on Marinette during dinner. But through all these little mishaps, their love for each other just grows stronger.
Obviously, Ladybug and Chat Noir are the most popular pairing. Their dynamic in the show, with Chat Noir's flirty nature and Ladybug's more reserved attitude, makes for a great basis for a romantic relationship in fanfiction. However, some fanfictions also pair Marinette with other characters like Luka. Their relationship in the show was quite sweet, and in fanfiction, it can be explored further in a dating context. There are also fanfictions that pair Adrien with other characters aside from Ladybug, although this is less common.
Well, in some 'Miraculous Ladybug' cheating fanfiction, the author might take a different turn with the character Chloe. Maybe she tries to interfere in Ladybug and Chat Noir's relationship in a way that resembles cheating, like trying to get Chat Noir's attention away from Ladybug. But these are all creative interpretations by fans and not part of the original story. It can be interesting to see how different authors play with the relationships in the 'Miraculous Ladybug' universe.
