"Yeah, perfect timing, actually! I need a boyfriend." Marinette grinned, as Chat Noir's eyes widened. "A boyfriend?" That scene in Glaciator 2.0- in which Marinette reveals her crush's name to Chat Noir instead of calling him Buttercup… but wait… that's him, isn't it?
If Alya had to say two things about Marinette's crush on Adrien Agreste, they would be: 1. She is undeniably, irrevocably, head-over-heels in love with him and, 2. She is unable to utter a single sentence around him without stumbling over her words. But what she noticed one day, was that suddenly the second fact about her best friend's crush was now false.
Prince Adrien Agreste had always felt trapped. Though the castle he inhabited was vast, his father, King Gabriel forbade him from taking one step outside without his approval. He felt chained to a life of formality; of press conferences and public appearances. Which is why Adrien had always loved Marinette Dupain-Cheng... the girl who had given him his first taste of freedom.
Francoise Dupont High School had just announced the stupidest thing Marinette had ever heard. They had decided to hold a pun contest. "How are you feline on this fine night? 'Cause I'm paw-sitively purr-fect!" Her blindfolded partner said confidently. Marinette's brain malfunctioned as she realised he had quoted the exact same greeting Chat Noir had used the night before...
"Come on, Ladybug!" Rena Rouge insisted. "Ladynoir needs to become a reality!" "If people don't complete dares, they're cowards!" Queen Bee ridiculed. "Er, not that you're a coward, Ladybug. But, you know, you have to do the dare." Ladybug groaned in defeat. "Fine," she grumbled. She had to kiss Chat Noir.

Marinette and Adrien are weirdly competitive when it comes to dodgeball... When they're on the same team, they somehow become utterly unbeatable. The whole class wonders why...
