Spideybug

Spideybug is the het ship between Peter Parker and Marinette Dupain-Cheng from the Marvel comics and Miraculous Ladybug fandoms.

Canon
As Marinette and Peter are from different series, even though both of their home universes have superheroes and magic, they have never met in canon. Even though a few Spider-Man references were made in the Miraculous Ladybug series through Marinette and the people she knows.

While the two have never met, they do have a few similarities. Both of their superhero costumes are red and have bug themes, a spider and a ladybug, swing all across their home cities to get around through their web-shooters and yo-yo. Just as Peter is good at making his own gadgets to help him on the filed, Marinette is also shown to be good with her hands when it comes to bringing her clothes designs to life, along with building a special box to keep her secrets in her diary safe. Peter designing and making his Spider-Man suits also reveals that he too has clothes making skills. As well as the two knowing the struggles of balancing their two lives and keeping their hero lives a secret from the ones they love. Even though Ladybug has had Cat Noir by her side since day one, there have been times have she has to fight battles on her own, just as Spider-Man has protected his home city on his own before he begins to ally himself with other superheroes. Along with him being acquainted with someone with a black cat alter ego-themed who is in love him, like the way Cat Noir is in love with Ladybug.

Even though never met the past Ladybugs before her and only had her future self talk to her through Burrow, the thought of them gives her comfort. Just as Spider-Man meeting his many dimensional counterparts helps him to feel less alone of being the only Spider-Man, and one of his alternate dimension counterparts is from a future universe. One of Marinette's foes has been given abilities that are similar to the ones that some of Spider-Man's many enemies have.

Fanon
Spideybug is one of the well liked ships of the ML/Marvel crossover fandom. Because of the many versions there are of Peter, the Marvel fandom used in the ship jumps between the comics, cartoons, video games and even the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Their similarities have also got fans to cast the two as one another in AUs of their fandoms, while the famous Spider-Man kiss scene being referenced in season one of Miraculous Ladybug has inspired fans to draw or write about them kissing one another in that way.

On AO3, the ship has 37 fanfic, along with it having reasonable size fanbases on Fanfiction.net, Deviantart, Tumblr and YouTube.
