Theories began floating around that she was Mayura. The fact that she looked eerily similar to the peacock themed villain.
It was then that a dam burst. Students and teachers alike who had witnessed Bustier’s teaching methods revealed her tendency to gaslight or outright punish victims of bullying while letting the aggressors off scot free.
“And why should I apologize,” Marinette asked. “I didn’t do anything wrong.”
“We talked about the Marinettes of the world, remember?” Caline smiled. “You have to be the bigger person; be an example for the other students. Show them the right way to act.”
“This attitude of yours is getting out of control Mari-“
“What attitude?! Mme Bustier? The one where I sat quietly in class taking notes? Or the one where I calmly answered questions when asked? Or maybe the one where when the class got disruptive I didn’t do your job for you?” Anger filled Bustier’s eyes and her smile twisted into an ugly look.
“Don’t you think your going a bit far. Marinette.” Bustier’s voice was sickly sweet barely hiding the venom behind it.
Marinette reminded Ms Bustier, “Smile and forgive, Ms Bustier. Isn’t that what you told me? To be a better example.”
Caline had forgotten that mantra when she was a teenager, the teachers actually did their job so she wasn’t punished. The rule breakers were. It was easy to be on the high road when she wasn’t the one punished. Sure she wasn’t popular with her class, but it’s not like they would stay friends upon graduation.
And now here was, a teacher, while her bully was a socialite. It wasn’t fair.
Mrs. Bustier went to the school board the next day to ask about her pay. She didn’t expect to hear what she did. “Why haven’t I received my most recent pay checks? I haven’t received my last two checks, and I need to pay my rent. What is going on?” The board just looked at her with bored expressions. “You haven’t been paid, because you haven’t been doing your job.” Mrs. Bustier was shocked. “What do you mean? I show up everyday, and I teach my pupils all day. I am doing my job.” The head of the board just rolled their eyes.

Three bluenettes and a blonde walk into a skate park…
Punk skaters, Luka, Marinette, and Kagami, attempt to teach the eager Prep from the hoity-toity University nearby how to skate. They have their work cut out for them.
I have a bunch of little one-shot comics written for this. Hopefully I’ll actually get around to drawing them
Disclaimer: I’m not a skater, so please don’t roast me.
Notes: I’ve seen many people do the fic where Marinette gets kicked off the class trip, but how mean her classmates acted bothered me, so I made them as in character as I could.
This takes place after season 3 if Marinette got Master Fu’s tablet instead of Gabriel. Uh… that’s all I’ve got to say.
——————–
Marinette’s entire life changed when Lila joined her class.
Adrien insisted they don’t call Lila out. Gone was her friendship with him, and her crush.
The majority of her class believed Lila about Marinette bullying her. Those friendships were gone.
She lost trust with Mme. Bustier, as Bustier believed Lila’s injuries without any doctors records.
So when the school year was drawing to a close, Marinette’s only friends left in the class were Alya, Nino, Rose, Juleka, and Nathaniel.
It’s a certain someone’s 24th birthday today, so of course I had to give her this quick warm-up doodle of 24 y/o Kagaminette. (Fun fact: this is the first chibi doodle I’ve ever done! Another fun fact: this is my second time posting it after tumblr screwed up my queue and posted it a day early.)
So, happy birthday @purrincess-chat! Thank you for blessing me every day with pics of Mipha and with your charming, lovely personality. Becoming friends with you has easily been one of the highlights of getting more involved with the ML fandom. I look forward to another year of watching you attempt to defeat Darkov and being left awestruck by your incredible writing. ❤✨

Now, onto creator notes:
For those of you who keep sending me requests, I’ve included my ko-fi link in the image. I really appreciate that you like my ideas and writing and ramblings and whatnot, but I have to be honest- money is tight and I can’t afford to do everyone’s requests for free. I’ve been and will continue to be focusing on my commissions (writing and art) for the foreseeable future. I’ll be sharing a few of the completed pieces within the next few weeks.
So, please support me on ko-fi if you have a request! My fees are listed on the page and are fairly standard. Again, I love that you all enjoy my content- at this point in time I have somewhere between 50 and 100 unanswered asks sitting in my inbox- and hope you’ll be willing to support me on ko-fi so I can continue to provide the content you desire :)
