History Fanfic / MarcBeingInAGangRights

* RoyaltiesHeir: Nathaniel's father Roy Corbin is the owner of Corbin Weapons Manufacturing, making him the same economic class as Adrien and Chloe. The reason why he's so different from them is that he only ever interacts with his father a few times every few months ''at least''.

* {{Yandere}}: Chloe calls Marc one when he declares that if any rich heir wants his boyfriend, they would have to go through him first.

* ConfrontingYourImposter: It is when Lila tries explaining that she was the kidnap victim in a recent ransoming in front of Nathaniel, the ''actual'' kidnapping victim, does he realize that Lila is the fraud that Marinette claims her to be. While he doesn't out himself as the actual victim right away, he ''does'' point out that she [[ItsAllAboutMe has a bad habit of making every conversation about herself]], a fact that [[SpottingTheThread seems to resonate with the others]].

* AdaptationalBadass: In the canon series, Marc is portrayed as a meek, insecure student with a crush, any badass moments happening only when he has been akumatized. Here, he is the youngest member of a Parisian street gang. He is perfectly capable of self-defense, is a bit of a KnifeNut, has managed to talk Nathaniel out of trouble for being in possession of a knife on school grounds (having been the one to give it to him for self-defense reasons), and has aided in undoing the mugging and kidnapping of his boyfriend ''twice''.

* RealityEnsues: When Nathaniel is grabbed by Marc's gang and threatened, as mentioned in "Gone Horribly Right," he starts crying in terror. When the gang starts freaking out, Nathaniel points out "what did you think would happen when you started threatening me with actual, real weapons?"

* AllJewsAreAshkenazi: Canon!Nathaniel is AmbiguouslyJewish. Here he devolves into speaking Yiddish when he is either trying to complain about someone to their face without them knowing and even unknowingly when he is regaining consciousness, implying that it is his first language.

* DistressedDude: Nathaniel has been threatened by Marc's gang at knife-point, kidnapped to be helped for ransom, kidnapped by a villain and is almost mugged, coincidentally by the same gang that kidnapped him.

* NotInFrontOfTheParrot: After Nathaniel realizes that Marinette was 100% right about Lila, he complains about how annoying Lila is in Yiddish. Unfortunately, Max understands Yiddish and translates it out loud.

* BadassGay: Marc is effeminate and is in a relationship with Nathaniel, but he is also the member of a gang, is proficient with knives and is good enough of a fighter that he beats up a rival gang singlehandedly when they kidnap his boyfriend.

* LoopholeAbuse: After Nathaniel was kidnapped, Marc gives him a knife to keep on hand in case something happened in the future. Lila notifies Damocles that Nathaniel has a knife in his locker and tries to suspend him for bringing a weapon to school, only for Marc to bail him out, pointing out that Section 3, page 87, third paragraph of the school's rulebook allows knives below 5-inches (the knife itself is four inches) for self-defense purposes. The fact that it was in his locker and not being used maliciously certainly helped Marc and Nathan's case.

* AbusiveParents: Of the [[ParentalNeglect negligent]]/distant variety. Roy Corbin only ever involves Nathan in his life if it ever suited him, going for months at a time without seeing or hearing from him, only to invite him to a party for the sake of publicity. Even then he basically tries to auction his son's hand in marriage for the sake of his company without even letting Nathaniel know about it, Nathan not learning about it until he unintentionally rejecting a random suitor and getting him akumatized. This is also why Nathan has his mother's last name instead of his father's.

* AmazonChaser: A same-sex example. When Nathaniel sees first hand how Marc can be when crossed, especially when its against the people who kidnapped him, Nathaniel is more impressed and turned-on than worried.

* DistressedDude: Nathaniel has been threaten by Marc's gang at knife-point, kidnapped to be helped for ransom, kidnapped by a villain and is almost mugged, coincidentally by the same gang that kidnapped him.

* MarryThemAll: While Kagami tries to honor the agreement that she would be supportive when Marinette and Arien start dating, she could not help but feel left behind. After a bit of couching, Marc tells her that they are ''also'' seeing Luka and gets it into her head that it wasn't just Adrien she was pining for and that maybe she should be open with these feelings. By the end of the sixth chapter, Kagami has joined their relationship.

* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Same-Sex variation. Elias Rodier, being a rich heir, has had various boyfriends in the past who only wanted him for his money. When he tries hitting on Nathaniel when Roy Corbin publically announced that political marriages are on the table, Nathan rejects him. This is enough for Elias to have him akumatized, wanting a chance to date him because he didn't care about his money.
