My man probably had a heart attack "oh crap, Adrien's Chinese friend is from a family of magic users"

Dude never gets resolution on that, so he's gotta just be sitting in his atelier wondering if she's part of the Illuminati or something.

Because why in the world would a Parisian teenager who is, seemingly, very middle class, suddenly show up at the place he's about to attack, hanging out all chummy with the girl he later sees transform into the Prodigious wielder in the middle of the night. And her parents, he probably confirmed later, are still in Paris.

If this happens between S2 and S3, then in S3 he akumatizes Marinette's paternal grandfather, who claims to be descended from the ancient aristocratic family that invented bread or something IIRC. So then Hawkmoth learns Marinette's other side of the family is potentially a secret aristocratic family.

Actually someone please write this fan fiction where he becomes super paranoid and that is why he recruits Lila to keep an eye on her and Adrien at school. Bc I love the idea of Gabriel being afraid of Marinette because her mom's family is wizards and her dad's family is even more aristocratic than Gabriel's wife's family.

Damn now I need to learn how to write gud so this can be a story.I've always wanted to see some story where Gabriel is super dismissive of Marinette as beneath Adrien, middle class, blah blah but secretly Tom is like the Princess Diaries girl or something.
