History Fanfic / Cupidity

* RealityEnsues: In real life, an unstamped valentine with no address would not go through the mail. This fic explains how it could have reached Adrien anyway by getting stuck to another letter ([[spoiler:except that Ladybug destroys it]]).

* AntagonisticOffspring: [[spoiler:Marinette hates her parents because of Dark Cupid and she wants to raise enough money through crime to live on her own.]]
* AntiHero: [[spoiler:Ladybug under the influence of Dark Cupid has not-nice ideas about how to stop Hawk Moth. She thinks if she kidnaps Dark Cupid and holds him prisoner that Hawk Moth will be blocked from creating more akumas. Fortunately for Kim, Hawk Moth just pulls his power.]]
* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler:Hawk Moth can find out that Ladybug has feelings for Adrien, a strong clue to her identity and a source of leverage against her.]]

* DisabilityImmunity: [[spoiler:Since Marinette was made loveless by Dark Cupid's arrow, he can't make Ladybug worse. His ranged weapon is useless against her.]]

* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:Ladybug under the influence of Dark Cupid turns to crime, holding Adrien for ransom.]]
* GuileHero: [[spoiler:Adrien, without powers and tied up, manages to convince Ladybug to kiss him and break the spell on her.]]
* ItsNotYouItsMyEnemies: [[spoiler:Why Ladybug says she and Adrien can't date, after he figures out that she loves him.]]

* ReversePsychology: [[spoiler:Adrien gets Ladybug to kiss him by telling her it will make him miserable when TrueLovesKiss fails. It works and restores her to normal.]]
* StationsOfTheCanon: [[spoiler:Some events of the original repeat with a twist. Alya still sticks candy apples on Marinette (in self defense). Ladybug still saves Chloé from an arrow shot by Dark Cupid (because Ladybug attacked the gold-framed portrait of Adrien).]]
* SwappedRoles: [[spoiler:In the original, Chat Noir hated Ladybug. In this version, Ladybug hates Adrien.]]

This is a multi-chapter work and it is still in progress.

* TheUnmasking: [[spoiler: Ladybug learns Chat Noir's identity, but forgets it when Dark Cupid's influence is removed.]]

* TitleDrop: Ladybug makes a joke that she has to explain to Dark Cupid. "Cupidity means greed."
