Triplet Dupain Cheng AU

Post 2: Marinette Herself

The star of the original show herself. Obviously being an AU, Marinette is going to be different. How so from canon you may ask. Well, here it is:

Marinette's Similarities To Canon

Much like canon, Marinette is still a sweet, outgoing & joyful girl who's honest, kind, fair, & pure hearted.

She's still very much helpful to anyone & does her best to help in most scenarios.

Marinette is also still a very quick lesson & mistake learner.

She unfortunately still struggles with self-confidence & acts impulsively.

She's also still quite the klutz & still panics a lot.

She still loves fashion, Adrien & baking.

She's also still Ladybug with much of the same traits.

However that's where the similarities end.

Marinette's Changes From Canon

You want to talk about affectionate? This girl is one of the most affectionate people you'll ever meet. Warm hugs, friendly kisses, pats on head/back/shoulder, or even light friendly tackle. Marinette will make sure you won't go a day sad & mopey.

Her self-esteem is much better here as she's more confident in her abilities as a person & fashion designer.

Speaking of fashion, Marinette excels much more in this department. She's very efficient in designing & creating her clothes line & almost all of her clothes are made by her. Suffice to say that she's made many people's heads turn. I mean, she did make Michael his favorite shirts.

She doesn't have any sense of irrationality in her at all here compared to canon. Let's just say Lila gets a good spotlight above her head here like Chloe.

She can be almost, if not, as chaotic as her brother. Suffice to say that the girl squad can have a hard time wrangling her without Michael or Shelby around to help them when she's full on excited.

Marinette is a big time gamer here. Any game she picks up can be fairly judged by her ranging from after about an hour to a day of playing. Michael & Shelby follow behind her extremely closely in this regard.

When things don't go her way, Marinette tends to freak out more often than canon & requires a serious rehab from either family, friends or both when necessary. However, she can pick herself up if she has to do it alone.

Unlike canon, Marinette can act rather meek at times, being very reserved & nervous when not in the company of her siblings or friends or when she's scared of something or someone. It was very apparent when she first met the Akuma Class, Alya & Adrien. She finds it a miracle the people she's met so far are very understanding about it.

While she hates liars, she won't try to out lies without proof. Oop . . . another spoiler for Lila. Whoops.

Marinette can act mature even when she isn't Ladybug at the time. Some friendly advice from her isn't too far away if you need it.

Just like Shelby, she is very nurturing & loves babysitting, especially Manon. In fact, Manon is so used to how Marinette watches over her that she won't accept any other babysitter Nadja tries to offer.

When I said she's still a klutz, I really mean it. In fact she can even be twice as clumsy compared to canon when she's not aware of her surroundings. Thankfully her family is helping work on it & she's striving to be a bit of a perfectionist that doesn't take things to seriously.

Marinette can also tend to be both flustered & embarrassed very easily. As Michael would say, "Don't mess with her funky flow."

She's also just as imaginative as Michael & Rose to a certain degree.

Much like Michael, Marinette can curse quite a bit. Particularly when she's angry, being protective, scared, messing around with her friends or disgusted by something. However, she's much more reserved than her brother.

She's just as protective as Shelby. Unlike Shelby however, Marinette's protectiveness can range from nurturing & kind to violent & or possessive, but not the point where she's had to get her hands dirty . . . yet.

She's also very clingy but it's not just for her lover(s), it's for everyone she cares about; both friends & family.

While she can control her temper a majority of the time, when she loses it, she REALLY loses it. Suffice to say you don't want to see Marinette irritated by the slightest if you care about your own well being.

Finally, she isn't stressed about being Ladybug at all & managing her personal life as she has much better self-control & stress management. Not to mention Shelby & Michael know she's Ladybug from the start & don't get akumatized just like her.

That was all for Marinette. As for when she's Ladybug, she's mostly the same as canon, being Paris' favorite heroine with as big of a love for her city as her family with a high sense of duty.

However, she's much more serious in her job & likes to get fights done quick & clean. She can come off as cold sometimes because of this but everyone knows she cares about Paris & it's people.

Despite this though, she can still be lighthearted & puts up with Chat Noir's flirting & nicknames for her & loves his puns, even if she acts like she gets tired of them sometimes.

In fact, a lot of Parisians wonder why someone as serious & efficient as Ladybug would want a silly, goofy, & clumsy partner like Chat Noir, even though they won't deny he's equally as competent & can get the job done. However, as she will tell news reporters, she really doesn't mind putting up with her kitty & would not have it any other way. To her, he's the perfect partner & the best counterpart to her serious attitude.

Ladybug is also very creative with her fighting style & powers, picking up many video game moves & due to her getting to know Fu much earlier on & through personal discovery & training, the powers of the Ladybug can be put to much more effective & creative use.

Not to mention her excellent performance in crime fighting, creative mind & leadership skills saw her forming her Miraculous Team early & helped Fu discover something that could change everything the last Miraculous Guardian knew about the miraculouses. This however is s post for another time.

And there we go! That's Marinette's dedicated post complete. I will say this took a fair bit of time to write but not as much time as my first post. Stay tuned for the next few posts & feel free to ask about this & my other AU as well. Until next time, Bl1tzM1k3 signing out.

Triplet Dupain Cheng AU

So I thought to myself , what if Marinette had 2 siblings that formed a triplet trio with her? AND some aspects & characters from canon were changed to fit this goofy idea of mine. WELL, have I got something for you all.

Post 1: Marinette's Siblings

Michael Dupain Cheng

"I can be the definition of chaos, but a good friend in need."

Son of Tom Dupain & Sabine Cheng. Brother of Marinette Dupain Cheng.

Michael is a tall & slender teenage boy that's around 6.5 feet. He's the tallest of his siblings. He's got regular black colored eyes compared to the rest of his family, his hair is medium length that's combed smoothly towards the right with a slight left side split. He also has bangs slightly covering his forehead that is combed similarly to his hair.

Whilst his hair is blue like Marinette & his mother, it's slightly darker & sleeker looking that has caused some people assume to think it's black. The color does get more pronounced when he uses a little bit of his favorite hair conditioning & shampoo.

He regularly wears 2 shirts, one collared & another with no collar. Both are specially made by Marinette.

Both shirts is 2x2 checker board style on the front but a horizontal split on the back with a stripe in the middle. For the front, the upper right is black, upper left is purple, the bottom right is blue & the bottom left is white. For the back, the upper half is black, the bottom half is turquoise & the stripe separating both halves is magenta. The collar on the collared shirt & the neckline on the collar-less shirt are both dark grey. The sleeves on both shirts are white for the right sleeve & light grey for the left sleeve.

He sometimes likes to wear a zipless hoodie that starts at blue at the top & fades into a purpleish-magenta color going down.

For pants, he either wears either long, pocketed pants that go to his ankles in either a black or grey color or cargo shorts in either black or grey.

As for footwear, he wears either some bog standard grey strap slippers with orange detailing or light grey lace-less sneakers with some black & white striped socks.

In terms of personality, Michael's personality is a big mess of many traits.

Positive Personality Traits

Most of the time, Michael is a big guy with an even bigger heart. He's essentially a big, happy pile of sunshine & rainbows, rivalling Rose in this regard but in a boy-ish way.

He likes to act silly, his humor is mostly derived from memes & puns, & he always tries to look on the bright side of things.

He can be a very chill dude, as much as Nino & Luka, in an almost zen-like way & can be very laid back.

He's also very smart in the academics department with great grades across the board much like his siblings. It helps him to be creative in many situations.

His imagination is the size of the universe & has helped in five ways; it gives him a high level of creativity, it's helped him to think outside of the box, it helps to inspire himself to have big dreams of anything he can think off, it has given him a very open mind to anything as he has a good eye for fashion like Marinette, a diverse palate for food, & a keen ear for good music regardless of genre, & it lets him be brave enough to try new things & experiences.

Due to the fact that he has two sisters that share everything with him & vice versa, Michael has a vague idea on giving dating advice to any of his friends. Emphasis on vague.

When anyone is feeling down, Michael is a good friend to talk to & a good shoulder to cry on if needed. He always tries to think of the best things to say in any situation no matter how dire or deadbeat it could be.

He has a sheer amount of determination & willpower. He never gives up no matter what's thrown at him & refuses to throw in the towel when he knows there's a way to solve a problem but that doesn't mean he's stubborn.

He can be very passionate about the things he likes, particularly his loved ones, & is very loyal to those he loves.

Despite his kindhearted & goofy nature, Michael can be as serious as a soldier in a war when the situation calls for it.

Neutral Personality Traits

Taking in all of his personality traits, Michael can sometimes be the living, breathing definition of chaos. He can be mix of any of his traits at any time when he's feeling a little chaotic.

He's very emotional as he can very happy & cheerful one moment, very angry or aggressive another moment & very sad or bored in another moment. So be VERY careful when he's feeling sensitive or passionate about things.

Michael can be very protective for his family, friends & his stuff. While it's a positive thing, it can be a bit too much at times.

While he's a stickler for cleanliness, it has lead to some annoying habits that he's ashamed to have such as the fact when he suddenly feels the need to wash his hands or use hand sanitizer/wet wipes.

He can be very rowdy sometimes & it has lead him to be a bit unpredictable when he's at different kinds of events or parties. He can either very reserved & gentleman-like or a party animal that knows how to control himself.

Negative Personality Traits

While not an entirely negative thing, Michael is the foulest mouthed member of his family. He essentially can curse whenever he wants in whatever way possible towards anyone or anything but he can control it. While his family are used to this, they're worried it might land him in trouble, which it rarely does.

Much like Marinette, Michael can be a bit clumsy. Compared to her though, he can make a very quick recovery & is trying to help Marinette do the same.

He can be a bit forgetful about things at times. In fact, due to the fact that he knows so many things & people, it can be hard for him to keep track of things & has led him to forget some basic things.

When he's in serious mode, Michael can be a bit cold at times & can be a bit harsh, although he knows not to be too harsh.

Michael, despite the fact that he's a hard worker, at times can be a bit lazy. Sometimes it's due to being tired or due to being too laid back. But when push comes to shove, he'll get off his ass & do what needs to be done.

Michael can be a little bit overdramatic at times, exaggerating situations when it's not really that big of a deal. However, this particular trait has helped him at times.

When meeting someone new, especially girls, Michael can be a bit shy & won't open up to people until he knows slightly more about them. Once he's comfortable, he will open up more when around them.

Michael can act bit childish at times, particularly around his loved ones like his family & very close friends. He feels like it's his coping mechanism to some things but is trying to steadily grow out of it.

The dude talks to himself a lot due to his large imagination. It's even caused him to talk in his sleep in both good dreams & nightmares.

Michael has a huge fear of abandonment. Despite the fact that his family & his friends have all assured him that he's never going to be alone, he still has doubts about that a lot of the time & has a hard time opening up about it.

Shelby Dupain Cheng

"Life is a very beautiful thing, just like my loved ones."

Daughter of Tom Dupain & Sabine Cheng. Sister of Marinette Dupain Cheng.

Shelby is a tall & slender teenage girl that's around 5.9 feet. She's between Marinette & Michael in terms of height. She's got dark brown colored eyes compared to the rest of her family, she has long hair that flows neatly until her waist with bangs that flow neatly over her shoulders. Much like Michael, her hair is slightly darker & sleeker looking blue compared to Marinette & her mother.

However, Shelby decided to dye her hair a dark orange color as it goes up her hair before finally reaching the dark blue area around the top of her head. She has light freckles that gives an 'adorable' appearance according to her family, but she likes to wear makeup a lot so it's not shown often. Her makeup appliance isn't very heavy & even without it, she still looks very beautiful.

Her usual body wear consists of a black short sleeved dress with puffed shoulder sleeves, white polka dots, & white lines that split the upper & lower part as well as flowing down the skirt area, &/or a sky blue short sleeved blouse that she pairs with a few things.

Speaking of which, she pairs her blouse with either a matching sky blue skirt or black slim fit pocketed jeans. She of course wears a pair of shorts when wearing her dress or skirt.

Her shoes consists of either black Mary Janes shoes, peach colored 2 inch heels or dark brown combat boots. Shelby also likes pairing them with either regular or thigh high socks, usually colored white, or fishnets stockings.

Personality wise, Shelby is much more simpler compared to her brother.

Positive Personality Traits

Much like her siblings, Shelby has a big heart & is very kind soul. Between her, Marinette & Michael, she's the most gentle.

Much like Michael, Shelby likes to act silly to lighten up the mood & look on the bright side of things like her brother.

She's the most chill between her siblings but doesn't border to the point of lazy.

In fact, academically speaking, Shelby is the most hardworking of her siblings. Often times she has the best grades among herself, Marinette & Michael but these two aren't slouches & keep up with her very closely. Let's just say Sabine & Tom find it cute that their children are competitive concerning their grades.

She's also very smart in general. In fact, Shelby has rarely had a dumb moment in her life & is always careful to a T.

Between the three, Shelby tends to act the most mature as she acts as the older sister of the trio.

This lends her to be the most nurturing of the three, alongside Marinette. She is often Michael's source of comfort as she's often on the receiving end of a clingy hug from her brother & is very careful with how she handles Marinette when giving advice to her about anything.

Shelby is also surprisingly effective at negotiating, followed by Michael.

Unlike her siblings, Shelby is rarely ever if not at all clumsy. She's always managed to avoid situations where she would get herself in trouble.

Neutral Personality Traits

Speaking of clumsy, while Shelby is rarely clumsy, when she does slip up, it hits her hard & leaves feeling very guilty. But with two siblings that are very supportive, the guilt doesn't stay long & she's quick to fix her mistakes.

Shelby is very protective of her family. While mostly a positive, depending on the situation, the way she is protective is either wholesome or even slightly scary.

She loves giving strangers a mysterious vibe when they first meet her. She can either be silly & goofy, calm & mature, cold & calculating or just outright mysterious. Only people that get close to her know what Marinette & Michael get with her on the daily.

Negative Personality Traits

Despite not being a perfectionist when it comes to her looks, being a very simple girl when needing to look good, Shelby can be very self conscious about her looks. She hates when her looks are ruined in any major way that makes her look near unfixable but tries to keep a calm when it happens.

However in some scenarios, when she can't keep her cool, the waterworks start running & Michael & Marinette have to come to her rescue. She & Chloe (who's changed in this AU) resonate with each other in this regard.

In the event that either Marinette or Michael get a partner, she would be the one to judge them after their parents. And let's just say that she can very harsh & critical when it comes to this. IF their partners are lucky, they'll get judged still but to a less harsh & more friendly degree.

Shelby can very distrustful of people sometimes. This was because of some old friends who left her behind to be friends with her old bullies when she was younger. In Dupont, she's trying to be more trustful of people outside of her family as she's already getting closer with the Akuma Class.

Let's just say if anything bad happens to Marinette & or Michael, & it wasn't their fault & was caused by someone else, you don't, & I repeat, you DON'T want Shelby to find out. Because if & when she does, you're in for a dreadfully bad time.

AND THAT'S THAT! Phew let me tell you all. It took a very long time for me to write this as I didn't want to make these two look like Mary Sues. Keep an eye out for more posts on this AU coming in the future. That's all from me. Bl1tzM1k3 out!
