It’s time for mlscience’s first actual post! This topic is actually the thing that started it all. A few days ago in the mlsubbing chat, we stumbled upon the topic about what color Marinette and Adrien’s children would be. The result is the above graphic.
Using the beauty of the basics of Mendelian inheritance and Punnett squares, we concluded that if Marinette and Adrien were to have a child, there’s a 50% chance of it having green eyes and another 50% chance of getting blue.
UPDATE (3/11/2016): ‘Jackady’ has proven our hypothesis that Adrien’s mom has Green or Dark eyes!
The original post has been updated with a couple more Punnett squares of the Agreste family’s eye colors.

yinwa333 asked: "Adrienette" apparently shouldn't have an e according to your triangle chart... But your "pie" chart says it should have an e... Which one is it?
(Correction: The triangle chart shows that it should have an ‘e’, and the swatch chart from the previous survey shows that it shouldn’t.)
The “pie” (swatch) chart was a representation of the responses from the previous ‘Ships Ahoy!’ survey. If you would look closely, it’s the same chart.
During those times, ‘Adrinette’ was only very slightly preferred over ‘Adrienette’, making no clear conclusion on which version is “correct”.
This time, however, ‘Adrienette’ is preferred by more people. While there is no actual solid rule on whether it should be spelled that way or not, the more recent data suggests that more people accept ‘Adrienette’ than ‘Adrinette’, which still has many supporters, and is about equally accepted.
As a rule, more recent data is more accurate than old data, so the conclusion that “Yes, ‘Adrienette’ has an E” is drawn from the fact that more people spelled it with an E. ‘Adrinette’, with its large number of supporters, is still acceptable.
You can spell it however you want, but more people spelled it “Adrienette” when the survey was conducted in February.
Anonymous asked: Do you think a possible reason why Adrien and Mari can't identify each other behind the mask is because they view the world differently when suited up? Like how Mari only sees the world in black and white so she really can't see what Chat Noir's hair color/eye color is?
Eh, if you really want my answer, the canon reason is just Clark Kenting. Astruc has also confirmed that their vision is totally normal, and the “bug vision” is more like a visually-shown thought process than what Ladybug literally sees.
Voilà. Exactement. Two answers in one ^^

Anonymous asked: I've been taking part of both the first and the current Ships Ohoy, and I think it's a fun and interesting project^^ I was just wondering one thing; how often do you do a Ships Ohoy and how long does it last? Just curious^^
The ‘Ships Ahoy!’ surveys currently have no set schedules; however, we do try to send them out around a month apart, and the previous two lasted about a month as well. They are intended to be kind of a way to measure the state of the ships within the fandom, so they will be sent out every now and then.
(Adrien Agreste was used as a reference. To see how we retrieved Adrien’s height, click here and here.)
Using the pixel-proportion method, we now have a realistic and somewhat accurate list of the heights of the “collégiens”, or Marinette, Adrien and their classmates, minus Alix, Kim, and Max. This took a long time to do for various reasons, including the countless attempts to draw proper perspective lines on the reference image and the numerous calculations involving counting pixels, plugging the numbers on a calculator, and making that graphic above.
While we do have some pretty specific numbers up there, those shouldn’t be taken as 100% accurate results, due to some rounding off and other stuff that may have happened during the multiple stages of this project.
We might produce a more accurate version if we get more decent screenshots.

Idk. Because of the new episode, we know that Juleka is taller than Mari and Chloe. Alya is also taller than Mari, she is a super shorty. So idk how well I can believe this chart.
Yes. I had problems with perspective before, but with the new, clearer shots of them from the newest French episode I could make more accurate calculations.
In addition, because of some perspective problems I’ve overlooked when I calculated Adrien’s height using the Mona Lisa, the inaccurate-ness of this chart is given.
MLSFR’s second Ships Ahoy survey is now accepting responses! Think of it as a sequel to the previous one. This survey is updated and contains different questions, focusing more on the preferred ship combinations than their naming conventions.

The Sphenoid bone is part of the human neurocranium, a collection of bones in the skull that forms a protective case for the brain. It is located behind the eyes.
Perhaps the most striking thing about this bone is how it resembles a pair of bat or butterfly wings, like this:
It kinda matches the shape of the communication mask thing Hawkmoth uses as well:
