A/N. Soooo this is basically my AU one-shot dump. Basically, I reveal how much of a dork I am by throwing our precious little Chosens into as many different fandoms imaginable in as fluffy a way as possible because what is life without fluff.
First up, the obligatory Harry Potter AU!
-Outlines-
Ch. 1 Beat (of My Heart)
Typically speaking, Adrien was a good Beater—wait scratch that, he was a great Beater. One of the reasons the Hufflepuff team had been doing so well this season was because he was so good at being a Beater. Combined with Nino's skills as a Chaser and Ivan's natural talent as a Keeper, their team had a good shot of actually winning this year.
Playing Quidditch had always come naturally to Adrien and when he was offered a spot on the team, he seized it with both hands. When he was up in the air, he wasn't just Adrien Agreste, Pureblooded son of Gabriel Agreste and member of one of the oldest magical families in Europe. There was no one watching him here, well, no one watching how well he was behaving anyway. He could be wild on the field, tell puns and laugh too loudly.
It didn't hurt that it also helped get the attention of one Marinette Dupain-Cheng, Slytherin's star Seeker, but who's thinking of Marinette at a time like this? (Adrien was, but no one had to know that.)
His eyes drifted to the witch as he redirected the Bludger to one of Gryffindor's Chasers and shot her a smirk when she glanced his way. She raised an eyebrow at him as if to tell him that she wasn't impressed, but the quirk of her lips told him otherwise.
"Agreste! Flirt on your own time!" Nino shouted at him as he whizzed by, eyes focused on the Quaffle.
"No purromises!" he yelled back, but turned his eyes away from the bluenette.
His father would have a conniption if he saw his son flirting with a muggle born. Adrien couldn't bring himself to care.
The game carried on and Adrien loved every minute of it, calling out puns at the Gryffindor team whenever he could.
"Meowch! That one looked like it hurt."
"Looks like I'm beating you at your own game."
"Another save by Ivan. I'd say he's quite the keeper."
Adrien swore he was a good Beater and he did his job well, that is until the amateur Beater they let on the Gryffindor team accidentally sent a Bludger flying straight at the bleachers, specifically at a blue-haired Slytherin who had chosen that particular moment to fuss over what Adrien assumed was a run in Alya's scarf.
He didn't even hesitate.
Beaters are supposed to use their bat to keep Bludgers away from their teammate and redirect them to the opposite team. Beaters are not supposed to use their bodies as a human shield against Bludger for people who aren't even on their team.
But here he was, rushing as fast as he could to save Marinette a trip to the infirmary. There wasn't time to use his bat.
He braced himself for impact.
He didn't remember much more after that.
When he awoke in the infirmary, he was met with a pair of very angry blue eyes.
"If you weren't so bruised up right now, I'd be beating you up," Marinette set, arms akimbo and her lips set in a frown.
"Nice to see you too, Milady," he croaked and noticed that she wasn't the only one hovering over his bed.
"Welcome back to the land of the living, bro," Nino greeted, a tired, but amused expression on his face.
"Did we win?"
Nino snorted. "By the skin of our teeth, no thanks to you," he said, but there was no bite to his words.
"I would have noticed it myself, you know. I could've gotten out of the way in time without you having to jump in front of it," Marinette pointed out, trying hard to maintain an angry tone, but Adrien could hear the relief and worry seeping through. It made him smile.
"Couldn't let the Princess get hurt," he said, sighing as he felt her fingers card through his hair.
"Silly kitty. I can take care of myself, you know," she reminded him.
He hummed in agreement. "But now that I'm injured, you'll take care of me too, right?" he asked, with his best attempt at kitten eyes.
Marinette laughed and shook her head at him. "Course I will, you stupid cat."
"And that's my cue to leave before you two start making out," Nino said, ignoring Marinette's squeak of protest.
"We are not going to make out, Nino," Marinette retorted, cheeks burning red in embarrassment.
"We'll see about that," Adrien said cheekily, winking at Nino on his way out.
"I will hex you," Marinette threatened.
"No you won't—ow! Okay, Marinette, I'm sorry!"
A/N. First one down! I hope you guys liked it!
Other AU's to look forward to:

Not necessarily in that order. I'm also open to suggestions! However, if I'm unfamiliar with the fandom, no promises.
