* ''Fanfic/MiraculousLadybugSaltShots'': Generally speaking, many of the one-shots in this collection have Marinette cutting off toxic and lopsided relationships, focusing mainly on the catharis and relief of her getting away from them. However, some stories have a more bittersweet tinge:
** ''A Price to Pay'' has Gabriel and Adrien get struck by LaserGuidedKarma after the latter pulls a FaceHeelTurn and helps his father [[TheBadGuyWins make his selfish Wish]]. But reality has still been permanently altered, leaving Tom Dupain-Cheng dead as the price for [[BalancingDeathsBooks Emilie's revival]].
** ''It Was Always You, Alya'' ends with Marinette realizing she was LovingAShadow; Alya gleefully trampled over all of her "bestie's" boundaries while trying to [[ShipperOnDeck hook her up with Adrien]], and only learns who she was ''really'' crushing on after those feelings have completely faded and Marinette has decided to transfer away.
** ''Broken Reflection of Love'' has a similarly downbeat ending; Adrien only started dating Marinette as a temporary substitute for [[LovesMyAlterEgo her own alter ego]], and she decides to break up with him after he walks out on their last outing. While she recognizes it's best to break things off, she's still left deeply depressed by how little her long-time crush actually cared about her.
** In ''Spots of Change'', Marinette retires from being Ladybug, but remains as the Guardian so she won't [[LaserGuidedAmnesia lose all her memories]]. This also means that she won't get a [[IJustWantToBeNormal normal life]]. And while she transferred out of Francoise Dupont, she's still staying in Paris, and still has to deal with Alya trying to spin Ladybug's retirement into TabloidMelodrama.

*** Adrien finally has a proper JerkassRealization regarding his behavior and apologizes to those he's wronged, while also being mature enough to realize that a simple apology won't be enough. However, he's still dealing with his father being Hawk Moth and has to go through the pain of losing his mother all over again. He also has to leave Paris for London for his own safety, though he'll be able to visit by train and his aunt will take care of him.

*** Alya visits Lila in the hospital to figure out why she joined up with Hawk Moth, only to be DisappointedByTheMotive. She's also not sure what to do with the Ladyblog now that Hawk Moth's been defeated; eventually, she decides to write something called "Confessions of the Ladyblogger" and try her hand at blogging other things.

* ''[[Fanfic/TatteredRemainsOfBrokenDreams Tattered Remains of Broken Dreams (Yours, Not Mine)]]'': Lila convinces most of the class to tear up Marinette's sketchbook, while Adrien and others [[AccompliceByInaction do nothing to stop them]]. This vandalism [[VandalismBackfire blows up in their faces]] when Marinette reveals said sketchbook was full of projects she was working on ''for them'', and she won't be redoing any of that work. While Alya and the majority [[NeverMyFault blame her for this]], insisting it's unfair that she won't finish all those free favors, Marinette decides she's better off without her {{False Friend}}s. In addition, Rose offers some hope for the future by actually ''learning'' from her mistake, apologizing properly, and the story ends with her starting a consultation for a properly commissioned prom dress.

* ''Fanfic/ToServeInHell'': Both Nightmare Moon and Tirek have been defeated, but the aftermath of Nightmare's death (not redemption, Luna is not coming back) has left Equestria in an extremely precarious situation geopolitically. Most of the main characters are alive and well, but Rarity is deeply traumatized from both the death of her lover and having to kill a pony with her own hooves. Still, with Rainbow Dash having ascended to alicornhood, sunlight has returned after TheNightThatNeverEnds, and her rule promises to be peaceful. Efforts are being taken to help the ponies that have spent years suffering in Tartarus, and Rarity is finding some degree of, if not happiness, then at least purpose in raising Diamond Tiara after her father's death. The scars of the past still remain, but the future is looking brighter than it has in a long time.
