All That Is Disconsolate Is Without You - Chapter 1 (Chloenette, Podfic/Audiofic)
Edit (6/16/25)
I now have a podfic channel! This video will be remastered there shortly, and I will provide a link when it is. (This is the channel: / @starthornforpodfic )
---
I originally published this work on Archive of Our Own almost exactly two years ago. (Really, two years and roughly two days ago.) I thought I might as well try something new on this channel and do a podfic!
You can read the original Ao3 posted version here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/403...
I've never done one of these before, and you can definitely tell at points. I stumble over my words in some areas, and the audio kind of gets quieter the father the video goes on- but I did my best to right these wrongs. (Trust me, both of these issues were a lot worse in earlier drafts.)
Also, because this fic is two years old, some of the writing is clunky and the grammar even worse at points. Still, I haven't seen a Chloenette podfic on Youtube yet, and I know how much the MLB fandom likes their podfics- so I decided to make one dedicated to all the other wlw Miraculous fans out there! This one's for y'all.
Also, here are the notes from the original posting...
Summary:
Marinette receives an apology letter in the mail from none other than Chloe Bourgeois. Events take a turn for the unexpected as that familiar fluttery feeling keeps building in her chest, though this time she is not around Adrien!
Identity reveals and worry follow, but a hesitant love also blooms.
Notes:
Some events of canon did not happen here! I wanted to give my girl actual character development instead of retconning everything like the actual show did :')
Also, Ladybug and Chat Noir get to be good friends because I think that's cool. :)
Please note that I do not want criticism on this fic! Even constructive criticism, I'm sorry. I'm writing for fun and although I guess I can't stop anyone from critiquing this I will delete the comments. I'm not in a mental headspace where even more imposter syndrome will help me, rarely am but it's especially bad right now.
Chapter 1: Gel-Pen Apology
Summary:
Marinette receives a letter in the mail from Chloé detailing a very dramatic apology.
She also has a heart to heart with Chat Noir.
