Back To Us by DarkReyna16 is a completed Miraculous Ladybug fanfiction published on Archive of Our Own.After a reveal so shocking it rocks the core of Paris itself, the villain Hawk Moth is finally defeated... at a great personal cost to heroes Ladybug and Chat Noir. With the city safe, they go their separate ways, returning to the lives they were forced to put on hold since receiving their Miraculous. Now, seven years later, Marinette Dupain-Cheng is on the rise, studying at the fashion college of her dreams by day, working at her dream internship by afternoon... and occasionally moonlighting as Ladybug by night. This routine is set so firmly in place that, once it's shattered by an old-yet-new enemy, and the reappearances of a cold friend and a hot partner, the whiplash threatens to send Marinette spiraling down into chaos. As Ladybug, she can do anything... but soon those limits will be tested, whether she is in or out of the costume.

Played with when Alya and Nino break up when she suspects him of cheating, as while the spirit of the trope is used, the story is closer to a five-act structure. They come close to this again after he learns that she's been using the Fox Miraculous to infiltrate AVA without telling him, but again reconcile pretty quickly.

Title Drop: After Chat Noir asks Ladybug how she could ever forgive him after the way he hurt her, she replies "Because we’re partners, chaton. No matter what, we’re always meant to be partners. So, though you strayed for a while… I think you were always meant to come back to me. Back to us." It shows up again as a Meaningful Echo during Ivan and Mylene's wedding, in Ivan's wedding vows. Marinette immediately realises he got it from Adrien and is initially hurt by it until he tells her that Ivan finished his vows a month ago.

Reformed, but Rejected
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_1c5599e4
comment
Reformed, but Rejected: Happens to Chat Noir to varying degrees, and he knows that he has no right to expect otherwise. While Ladybug is ready to welcome back her partner with open arms after his heartfelt apology, Emerald Shell is grudging at best - he doesn't like him or trust him, but he's willing to work with him and see if he's serious about fixing the mess he created. The Paris public are largely hostile, with most former akuma victims still feeling betrayed (with exceptions such as Ivan and Alya) and the Anti-Akuma Taskforce feeling betrayed by his reformation. AVA take it to the point of spraying graffiti of Chat being violently attacked by them, and later burning him in effigy during their protest at City Hall. Turned around after Alya manages to steer AVA in a more peaceful direction and it's Adrien who's unwilling to forgive after how they treated Chat Noir, feeling betrayed when Marinette involves a few of their members in her fashion show. Marinette raises this point during their argument in Chapter 33 - "What AVA did to us — and to you — was wrong, but they’re trying to change now. And they needed me. What, did you just want me to turn my back on them? After I’ve seen, with my own two eyes, how hard they’re trying to turn themselves around? What if I had done that to you?" - and it leads to Adrien questioning whether even she ever really forgave him, considering how long it's taking her to be comfortable with Adrien being Chat, prompting their breakup.

Mythology Gag
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: The protagonists of the Miraculous Ladybug pilot video are both referenced by supporting characters: Felix Chevalier is introduced as Marinette's co-worker at Tres Bien Boutique and is revealed to be Adrien's cousin, while Bridgette (a common fan nickname for the original version of Marinette) Reine is the Deputy Mayor of Paris - her resemblance to an older Marinette is noted a few chapters before we find out her name. When Chat Noir shows up to rescue Ladybug from Black Widow, he spins her a story about his ring being cursed so that he can't take it off without a kiss from Ladybug, as an excuse to get close enough to Ladybug so he can cataclysm her free of the restraints. This premise comes from an early concept for Felix/Chat Noir.

Mistaken for Cheating
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_2d7ef923
comment
Mistaken for Cheating: The host of the Christmas Ball is akumatized because he believes his supermodel wife is unfaithful, having a lot of private meetings with other men, including Adrien. In reality, she was cancelling arrangements so that she could quit modeling and dedicate her time to their upcoming baby. Alya comes to suspect something's going on with Nino and Marinette after overhearing and misinterpreting a conversation between them about keeping their superhero lives from her, leading her to break up with Nino right when he was about to propose. She figures out the truth before too long and they get back together.

Don't Say Such Stupid Things!: Camille's approach to helping a woman who had been akumatised into a Face Stealer named Beauty Queen, thanks to an verbally and emotionally abusive and unfaithful fiance who had almost destroyed her self-esteem. After the woman expresses her fears that she may not be beautiful enough for him or anyone else, Camille gets livid and basically orders her to stop disrespecting herself or letting anyone do the same.

Thou Shalt Not Kill: Ladybug makes this resolution due to guilt over causing Hawk Moth's death. "Costumes don’t make us heroes, Chat. Our compassion — even for our enemy — does." A lesson that Chat eventually reiterates in his speech at City Hall as part of his redemption, but which now looks set to be tested by Shade, who has stated that has nothing redeemable about her.

 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_40c57041
comment
Manipulative Bastard: Shade is described as one by Erika, thanks to the powers of the Snake Miraculous: "She speaks with honey and velvet, and because of this, it is said that she can convince the most peaceful of rulers to go to war, and make them think that the idea was their own in the first place." As such, it's not too surprising when she turns out to be the Butterfly as well. Then when we learn Desirèe is Shade it takes on another dimension, as in hindsight her interactions with the main cast frequently pushed them apart from each other.

Saying Too Much
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_4733b5a5
comment
Saying Too Much: During Emerald Shell's debut as the Turtle Miraculous holder, he almost immediately blows his identity to Ladybug by identifying Alya as his girlfriend. Marinette repays him by visiting Nino the next day and giving him an album cover design with a turtle motif, claiming to have been inspired by Emerald Shell, a name which he hadn't gone public with yet. When Adrien and Marinette's Valentine's Day date is interrupted by an akuma attack, both Ladybug and Chat Noir give each other a few too many clues, leading each to suspect the other by the end of the night. Specifically, Chat mentions the earrings he gave Marinette which he thinks she doesn't like, and Ladybug apologises for kissing him on the cheek after the fight, saying that she knows he's seeing someone - information that Chat had only told Marinette. She also tells him to wipe the lipstick off before he sees his girlfriend again, echoing advice Marinette gave Adrien that day. During the AVA attack on the mayor's office, when the group encounters Lila Rossi/Volpina (actually Alya using the Fox Miraculous to pretend to be her), Chat accidentally lets slip that he knows Lila was Volpina. Emerald Shell just as quickly blows the fact he knows Chat was talking specifically about Lila Rossi.

This Is Unforgivable!
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_54cbd0cb
comment
Adrien's new attitude towards akumas is revealed to be rooted in some advice his cousin gave him, the night he almost ran away from his aunt and uncle after finding out that they were only treating him so well out of misguided fear. "If you don’t want to be mistaken for a demon…then show them what real demons look like." Adrien confronts Felix about this later, and Felix protests that he misunderstood him. "Adrien, I never meant for you to change. What I meant was that you should just keep being you — this upbeat young man, optimistic nearly to the point of foolishness. Eventually, my parents would have realized that they were wrong about you, that you were nothing like Gabriel. I never said that you should have to prove yourself." In response, Adrien angrily maintains that Felix should have made himself clearer, and Marinette, eavesdropping on the conversation, considers the role Felix played in this mess unforgivable.

Fantastic Racism: The new wave of akuma attacks and Chat Noir's approach to it spawns a number of protesters taking the attitude of "Once an akuma, always an akuma." Even after Chat renounces these views and returns to Ladybug's side, the protesters remain, eventually forming the Anti-Akuma Taskforce. Opposing them are Akumatized Victims Anonymous, led by Alix and including Nathanael, Kim, Chloe and Mylene among others, who refuse to cooperate with Chat, and Team Miraculous by extension.

Second-Act Breakup: Played with when Alya and Nino break up when she suspects him of cheating, as while the spirit of the trope is used, the story is closer to a five-act structure. They come close to this again after he learns that she's been using the Fox Miraculous to infiltrate AVA without telling him, but again reconcile pretty quickly. Adrien and Marinette break up at the end of chapter 33, after an argument in which he accuses her of not still not trusting Chat. They reconcile by the end of chapter 35. Again, this is played with due to it being closer to the fifth act by the time it happens.

Secret Secret-Keeper: In Chapter 19, Alya figures out that Nino is Emerald Shell when he calls her "babe" in costume and builds on that to deduce Marinette is Ladybug. Nino finds out towards the end of Chapter 31, while Marinette only learns in the final chapter. Also in the final chapter, it's revealed that Felix/Pavone always knew Chat Noir and Camille's identities, and Gabriel Agreste and Daniel Trace always knew about Chat Noir.

Jerkass Has a Point: When Alya uses the Fox Miraculous to make the AVA members think she's Lila, they wonder if she's really a Miraculous holder or if she's akumatized. When Alya asks why it's so hard to believe she has a Miraculous, Chloe points out Lila lied about it before and Alya begrudgingly concedes the point.

Driven to Suicide: Amanda, after being freed from her Akuma, attempts to jump off a bridge fearing that her life is ruined. Ladybug narrowly manages to save her, and she's shown to have recovered in later chapters. Marc Bonnhomme, a politician who commits suicide by jumping from the Arc de Triomphe after being linked to multiple planned anti-Akuma attacks and labelled a terrorist. His wife is akumatised the following day (the spider-themed Black Widow) and blames Ladybug for failing to stop it. Indeed, Marinette likewise blames herself because if she hadn't turned off the news all day to focus on her sewing she would have found out in time to save him. Desiree's father committed suicide due to accumulated guilt over taking money to protect both Hawk Moth and Chat Noir's secret identities.

Once Done, Never Forgotten
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_6e37c196
comment
Once Done, Never Forgotten: Ladybug's culpability in Hawk Moth's death is thrown in her face several times by her critics, usually misrepresenting it as her murdering him, and usually in response to her objection to using lethal force against akuma victims. It especially hurts when Adrien brings it up at the height of their argument in Chapter 33. On a lighter note, Alya refuses to let Nino forget that he gave her the Fox Miraculous by mistake, at one point wondering aloud what would have happened if he had given it to Adrien.

Armor-Piercing Question
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_7b6e47a5
comment
Armor-Piercing Question: Chat/Adrien gets a couple of these, though it takes a while for either of them to take effect. When Chat talks with Marinette while she's patching him up in the middle of the Bari-Star attack, he tries to justify his approach by claiming that akuma victims have something inherently dark in them that draws Hawk Moth to them: Later, Ivan brings up the same point in a therapy session with Adrien, when he admits that Chat Noir scares him: "I don’t know what happened to change him… but the guy saved my life, once. I thought he was the coolest guy ever. But now, how do I know that he wouldn’t rip right through me if he saw me on the street? Or… Or what if Mylene ran into him in a dark alleyway? What if, instead of us, he only saw the akuma we once were?" Adrien is torn between thinking, "I would never do that!" and "Once an akuma, always an akuma," and he immediately recognises his hypocrisy. The above conversation then comes back to him, with Marinette's question being described as a seed of doubt that's taking root.

Balcony Speech: During the confrontation between Team Miraculous and AVA at City Hall, Ladybug tells Alix she's never been so disappointed in her. In response, Alix goes to the window and addresses AVA with a megaphone. "You wanna hear something funny? And by ‘funny’, I mean stupid? Ladybug’s here right now, with her merry band of misfit heroes. She rudely interrupted my meeting with the mayor, and then she has the nerve to claim that she’s disappointed with me! …You know what disappoints me, Ladybug? A hero who chooses to fraternize with a ‘reformed’ hero who, just a few months ago, would gladly see us burning in that fire down there instead of him. I’m disappointed by a hero who claims she wants to help, but then comes up with some bullshit plan about a peace rally. I mean, what the fuck is up with that? Instead of telling us to stand and fight, you want us to sit down and be quiet? You really expect us to accept that? We, who have been accused of evil beyond our control, and you, who should know better than anybody else what we have to go through because of it? Are you telling us to lay down and die?! Well we will not sit down and be quiet! We will not lay down and die! We are Akumatized Victims Anonymous, and if you think we’re a problem, then we’ll give you a fucking problem!!"

Wham Episode: Chapter 30: Marinette's fashion show is attacked by Shade, the Snake Miraculous holder who was previously believed to be helping the Butterfly. As it happens, she is the Butterfly, she knows who Chat Noir is (having stolen the Butterfly Miraculous from him seven years ago) and most likely knows who Ladybug is (having broken into Marinette's apartment in an earlier chapter). Chapter 31: An AVA protest at City Hall gets out of control when Alix and Kim force their way into Mayor Fantoche's office, and ends with Fantoche knocking Alix unconscious and admitting that he agrees with the Anti-Akuma Taskforce. Also, Nino figures out that Alya has been lying to him about not knowing what the Fox Miraculous does, and he confronts her as Emerald Shell. Chapter 33. Marinette's friend and teacher Desiree turns out to be Shade, Pavone makes his first onscreen appearance, Marinette and Adrien see each other transform, and the ensuing argument over that last bit causes the two of them to break up.

Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Adrien's new attitude towards akumas is revealed to be rooted in some advice his cousin gave him, the night he almost ran away from his aunt and uncle after finding out that they were only treating him so well out of misguided fear. "If you don’t want to be mistaken for a demon…then show them what real demons look like." Adrien confronts Felix about this later, and Felix protests that he misunderstood him. "Adrien, I never meant for you to change. What I meant was that you should just keep being you — this upbeat young man, optimistic nearly to the point of foolishness. Eventually, my parents would have realized that they were wrong about you, that you were nothing like Gabriel. I never said that you should have to prove yourself." In response, Adrien angrily maintains that Felix should have made himself clearer, and Marinette, eavesdropping on the conversation, considers the role Felix played in this mess unforgivable. Oddly enough, Gabriel himself. If it weren't for him going along with Daniel Trace's blackmail and Trace's subsequent suicide, Desirèe would never have tried to attack Paris.

Dramatic Irony: The bread and butter of this fic. One notable example is after weighing up his options for the remaining Miraculouses, Nino decides to offer Adrien the Fox necklace, not knowing that he's Chat Noir.

Save the Villain: Ladybug tries and fails to save Hawk Moth with her yoyo after realising her trap is about to cause him to fall to his death. She later has to save more than one akuma from Chat. She redeems herself for Hawk Moth's death by saving the Butterfly from the exact same scenario.

Convenient Coma: Averted. When the mayor of Paris whacks Alix with a trophy and renders her comatose, Kim is seriously worried she may never recover. Then played straight when Alix recovers after a month in the hospital, just in time for the final battle.

Touché: When Nino points out Adrien is wearing Marinette's charm bracelet, Adrien says "men can wear bracelets" and points out Nino himself is wearing one. Since Nino's is the Turtle Miraculous and Adrien doesn't know it yet, Nino just says "Touché".

comment
Despite the Butterfly Miraculous being presumably in enemy hands for seven years, the second wave of akuma attacks only begins within days of Adrien's return to Paris. Adrien admits that this had him paranoid for a while, but he can't see any way the Butterfly could have known who he was or that Chat Noir was back. As it happens, she did, and it was not a coincidence.

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Chat Noir and Emerald Shell after the former returns to Ladybug's side. They've since gotten better, perhaps Vitriolic Best Buds or Fire-Forged Friends (in fact, they're described as fire-forged teammates in the narration) by the time they reveal themselves. When Ladybug learns Felix is Pavone, she works with him despite her personal distaste for the man.

Internal Reveal: The first one happens when Adrien reveals himself to Ivan, and from there the story continues to accumulate them. Ladybug learns that Cat Noir knows about Master Fu when Cat mentions the latter albeit Ladybug admits to herself she should have figured out considering Master Fu is the one who gave them their Miraculouses.

What the Hell, Hero?
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_d39e327f
comment
What the Hell, Hero?: Ladybug gives one to Chat after he tries to kill Patchwork during a fight rather than let her purify her as they've always done. His response to this makes it pretty clear that he's not that kind of hero anymore. But as noted, he does get better eventually. Nino confronting Alya about keeping her activation of the Fox Miraculous from him and working undercover with AVA, reminding her that she's supposed to be helping Team Miraculous, and saying that maybe he should take the necklace back, "because you clearly can’t handle the responsibility!" An enraged Alya retorts, "Says the guy who gave me this power by accident! You wanna talk about responsibility? How about making sure you actually know what you’re doing when you give out magic jewelry! Seriously, if you’re supposed to be the guardian of these things or whatever, if I were in charge, I’d fire you for negligence!" Tikki calls out Marinette for telling Chat and Shell that they know each other out of costume and forcing them into a reveal which they may not have been ready for, pointing out that she did it specifically to hurt Adrien.

Mayor Pain: Mayor Fantoche, initially presented as an Incompetent example who seems to leave a lot of responsibility with Deputy Mayor Reine. Later comes closer to Evil when he's shown to buy into the Anti-Akuma Taskforce's rhetoric and attacks Alix during the protest at City Hall. He finally proves himself to be this when he unhesitatingly abandons Paris during the final battle.

Adrien admits that this had him paranoid for a while, but he can't see any way the Butterfly could have known who he was or that Chat Noir was back. As it happens, she did, and it was not a coincidence. Marinette worked with Felix for two years without finding out he was Adrien's cousin.

The Unmasking
 Back To Us (Fanfic) / int_ddba8db1
comment
The Unmasking: The story gets a lot of humour and drama out of the four main characters learning some but not all of the other heroes' identities: In Chapter 13, Nino/Emerald Shell takes about three minutes as a superhero to blunder his identity away to Ladybug by identifying Alya as his girlfriend. The next day, Marinette throws him a bone and responds in kind. Alya figures out Marinette and Nino's secrets in Chapter 19 (without either of them realising that she knows) and Adrien's in Chapter 24 (which he does know), all before getting her own Miraculous. Nino figures out that she's been operating in secret as Vixen in Chapter 31. In Chapter 24, circumstantial evidence leads Marinette to deduce that Hero of Another Story Camille is Adrien's ex-girlfriend Erika Soriano. In Chapter 25, Marinette and Adrien both start to suspect each other, but they take until Chapter 33 to directly discuss it. Marinette later states that she found out for sure the day of Desiree's competition. In Chapter 34, Marinette, in a fit of rage about the breakup with Adrien, tells Chat and Shell that they know each other out of costume and basically forces them to reveal themselves to each other. In Chapter 35, Alya gives herself away to Adrien, first by calling him "Tiger" (which she called him as Vixen in the previous chapter) and then when he sees the Fox pendant peeking out of her dress. In Chapter 36, this happens a lot. First, Marinette learns Alya's identity. Then, Team Miraculous, Camille, and Bridgette all learn that Felix is Pavone. Felix also reveals that he knew about Chat Noir and Camille all along. Chat himself deduces that Erika is Camille.

Last-Name Basis: In his first couple of meetings with Marinette, Adrien insists on calling her "Miss Dupain-Cheng," which quickly becomes a Berserk Button for her (not helped when Chloe interrupts the meeting and does the same thing). He drops it after she brings it up with him: "If you’re trying to be professional, fine, but leave it in the office. Outside of those industry walls, it’s Marinette, damn it."

Downer Beginning: The prologue, due to Gabriel's death (even if he was Hawk Moth), Adrien being forced to leave the country with little time to grieve or say goodbye to his friends, and Marinette being forced to deal with her guilt over Gabriel with no contact from Chat Noir. And it doesn't help that the Butterfly Miraculous goes missing again.
