Finding out that Adrien was injured [[spoiler: as Liepard Noir during the battle against Mr. Pidgeot in Chapter 33]] caused Marinette to briefly adopt a [[DullEyesOfUnhappiness dark expression]] and tells Alya over the phone that she would "send the evildoers to the Distortion World in a bag." Would extend to ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend, but she's technically not Adrien's girlfriend... yet. Alya does call her out on it, [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall telling her not to change the direction of the story into a "trashy attempt at romantic horror.
** Again played for laughs in Chapter 45 when Marinette imagines herself dying alone and having her ghost haunt Adrien's home and give his supposed wife her unholy revenge while convincing the living Adrien to join her in the afterlife. Even Alya was creeped out by her ImagineSpot.
Added DiffLines:
* YourCheatingHeart: Marinette invokes this on herself in Chapter 45 when she [[spoiler: immediately found Luka, or at least an image of him, to be attractive enough to cause trouble for her heart]], committing infidelity by thought even though she and Adrien are JustFriends at this point.
