A/N: Hey everyone, me again! :) I'm writing the early chapter for Fangs Bared, Claws Out as we speak and I already edited a cover photo for it, but I'm having a bit of trouble writing the summary.

What do you guys think which of these is a better summary for "Fangs Bared, Claws Out"?

Summary 1: One fateful night had changed everything and Marinette was forced to acknowledge Chat Noir's deeper role in her life – not only in her life as Ladybug, the superhero, but also as Marinette, the civilian.

Summary 2: One fateful night made him realize their mortality and how he failed his duty as Paris' superhero to a certain girl he knew. Chat took it upon himself to protect his princess the only way he knew how – as her silent protector, sworn to keep vigilant guard over her for as long as she would have him. Knights weren't supposed to fall for the princesses they protected, but he found himself falling nonetheless.

Answers are very appreciated! Thank you!

Prompt: Chat/Adrien reflects on his relationships with the two girls he was close to with the help of dominos. Mentions of LadyNoir, Ladrien, Adrienette. Text in italics is Chat Noir speaking to himself (e.x. We are like dominos…etc.)

Like Dominos

We are like dominos.

He effortlessly moved around and with her in sync, perfectly covering her unprotected side while she moved to deflect an offensive hit to his blind spot.

The akuma never stood a chance, as always, they were a team after all.

I fell for you.

Chat Noir gazed up at her, at the hero that saved the day again, at his lady. The one that brightened up his whole day with her beautiful smile, the one that fearlessly defeated each and every akuma threw at them, with and without his help.

And you fell for another.

"I'm sorry Chat…there's…this boy I like…" her gaze was sad, so sad and apologetic when she looked up at him and he clutched the rose in his grasp, the small candles around them illuminating and further enhancing her beauty.

He never blamed her for her emotions, how could he? He himself had these strong emotions for a girl he didn't know the identity of.

He looked at her retreating form fondly, but then a memory of not too long ago suddenly appeared to the forefront of his mind and a face to match.

It was Marinette.

It was the moment he had brought her to the secret meeting spot he prepared for Ladybug and saw the look of awe on her face when he lighted up all the candles again.

It were the strange but familiar feelings he had when he looked at her awestruck expression and wished it were his lady's.

But then, I realized you weren't the only star in the sky.

It was the moment she had opened up about her own unfortunate luck in love, her unrequited feelings for a boy as they sat close to each-other on her balcony.

It was the moment Marinette, sweet, kind Marinette, looked so sadly up at the moonlight sky and he had the sudden urge to kick whoever that stupid boy was.

For not seeing how amazing Marinette was, how smart and kind and incredibly helpful and self-sacrificing she was. For not realizing how any guy would be the luckiest guy in the world to have her affections.

It was the moment he realized he had started seeing her differently.

And suddenly, someone fell for me.

Marinette laughed with him when he told one of his puns again, this time it was a baking pun and Chat smiled when she surprised him with her own baking puns.

It was the moment of realization when she gifted him a self-made box of the sweetest chocolate he ever had the luck of trying on Valentine's Day, the day of love and couples and returned feelings.

It was the moment the corners of her lips tilted up in a bright, happy smile when he happily accepted her gift and surprised her with a gift of his own and he realized he really liked seeing her smile and blush and the image of his lady was suddenly replaced by his princess.

And I found myself falling for another.

Just like dominos.
