Season 7 synopsis discussion — I have so many questions
Okay so I just read the official synopsis for Season 7 and my brain is NOT okay. For those who haven't seen it yet:
>"In the first episodes of Season 7, Marinette's personal life is shaken: she discovers new allies she can rely on and talk to more openly than ever before. Unfortunately for her, she also learns that some people around her are not who they claim to be and might betray her at the first opportunity. At the same time, her relationship with Adrien takes a new turn: no longer able to bear hiding more and more secrets from him, Marinette decides to reveal the unthinkable to her longtime love…"
I have SO many thoughts and questions — and I wanted to hear what you guys think too.
1. The letter — is she actually going to give it to him? As Marinette?
The synopsis says she'll "reveal the unthinkable" to Adrien. Do you think she's finally going to hand over the letter? And more importantly — as Marinette? Not as Ladybug?
I honestly did NOT see this coming. I always assumed she'd tell him as LB, not as his girlfriend. If she does it as Marinette, that changes EVERYTHING. How would she even start that conversation? "Hey babe, here's a letter from your dead dad that I've been hiding for months"? 💀
I genuinely don't know what happens after that. Does he read it? Does he want to read it? Does he get mad at her for keeping it?
I thought if she does it as LB he would give away his miraculous.. but as Marinette, would he just try to hide he has this information? That just doesn't suit Chat Noir. The other possibility is she revealing herself as LB, but I don't see that coming... like, NEVER
2. Lila knows Ladybug lied about Gabriel — why hasn't she exposed her yet?
Lila knows Gabriel was Monarch. She knows Ladybug lied to the entire world and made Gabriel look like a hero. She literally has the evidence. So why hasn't she used it yet? Exposing this lie would destroy LB credibility.
My only theory is that it has something to do with The Kingdom and/or that light we saw. Maybe she's following orders from someone above her. What do you guys think? Is she waiting for the perfect moment? Is someone pulling her strings?
3. "Betray her at the first opportunity" — who are we talking about here? This doesn't sound like Lila disguising herself as someone else, but real betrayals from people Mari actually trusts. I keep going back to that theory about the group splitting up — like Chat Noir and some of the other heroes forming their own faction. What if the betrayal comes from someone inside the team? And if that happens... would Chat Noir be on her side or against her? It ALL dependa on How he Discovers the truth
4. How does the Brazil special fit into all of this? We know there's a Brazil special coming up. How do you guys think it's going to tie into the main storyline? I'm really curious about that. And please — for the love of everything — I just don't want to see Luka and Marinette together again. That would be so corny
>!Final thoughts I know a lot of these discussions have probably happened already, but I'm new to the community and honestly, after reading this synopsis, I have NO IDEA what to expect anymore.
All I really want is for Adrien to get more development as a character. But I already know that's probably impossible 😭😭😭
What do you guys think is going to happen? Does she give him the letter as Marinette or Ladybug? Who's going to betray Marinette? And how does the Brazil special connect to everything?!<
