Old Chinese Person senses that an Evil force is on the rise and gives a powerful magical jewel to an awkward 13 year old girl.

Gordon and Helmut, the son of Felix Graham de Vanily and Lila Rossi!

Gordon(16): The eldest son, and a natural talent at practically everything he does. He takes great pride in the Graham de Vanily name and strives to excel at everything so as not to make a mockery of it. Clever, charming, intelligent, and manipulative, he is relentless when it comes to upholding his reputation and status, and will gladly crush anyone or anything in his path. Recently after seeing how well his cousin has been doing in volleyball, he decided to give the sport a try (and outshine him in it of course). But he seems to have an ulterior motive and wants to get something back he feels is rightfully his. There are a few other secrets he’s keeping, and he plans to butt heads with his cousin on more than just the court.     

Helmut(14): The younger brother of the Graham de Vanily family, most often seen shadowing his older brother. He comes off as a rather sweet baby face, and will use this to easily pull the wool over someones eyes and trick them. He’s very deceitful, and a master at spinning lies like his mother. He greatly admires and is close to his big brother Gordon, and always willing to help him with whatever plan or scheme he cooks up. This includes joining the volleyball team alongside him as the libero. Even though he’s aware his brother has a plan beyond just fun in mind, he seems to genuinely enjoy the sport.

What would the reversed versions of everyone else be? Aka welcome to my horribly cursed AU

[ladybug-thoughts-and-ideas]

Dorian Bourgeois, the son of Chloe Bourgeois and self proclaimed rival of Olivier Agreste. Picking up the grudge that his mother held against Marinette Agreste (formerly Dupain-Cheng), he’s made it a personal goal to try and upstage Olivier in all of his endeavors. This has led him, at the request of Gordon De Vanily, moving to Townsville and joining the Citiesville Knights. His main goal is to keep Olivier from winning the championships, and just making him miserable in general.

back on the miraculous train, here we have first batch of (kinda rough) redesigns!

uhh most of my notes are on the page so i won’t go into too much detail down here, i am also working on actually rewriting the series (for fun and also kind of out of spite) if more people are interested i’ll definitely redesign more of the characters though!

Notes (for easier read):

Sabrina: oversized glasses to portray some awkwardness. the argyle pattern of her sweater was inspired by the design of her show. removed the tights she wear because the clash of pattern was kinda atrocious.

Chloe: her hair is supposed vaguely represent a bee stinger. in the show her sweater looked kind of plastic to me, so i changed it. there weren’t a lot of characters wearing skirts in the show, and i wanted to give her a Heather Chandler feel here. kept the flats because they suit her better than heels imo.

Alix: their og design felt very childish to me, and while that fine it felt like it stood out against the rest of the cast. here i changed their hair so it was more of a half up half down kind of deal, not that weird side thing they had going on. the outfit they’re wearing here is inspired by the “skater boy” aesthetic, but i did want to keep them decently androgynous.

if you have any recommendations let me know! i’m definitely open to critique and feedback on what others might change or do. important note i probably should put, in this they are 16-17, not 14. mostly for my sanity lmao

How I would have written Miraculous:

The Miraculous Choose their Holders. Gabriel got the Butterfly Miraculous, because Nooroo felt drawn to his Love for his Family.

Chloé is still the Mean Girl, but she has an actual reason for why she hates Marinette. I would use the main character and mean girl used to be best friends, but then they had a falling out plot.

Instead of everyone being impressed by Lila’s stories. Most of the characters would either be skeptical or irritated by her. It would be like that episode of W.I.T.C.H. with the exchange student from Switzerland who at the end was revealed to actually be American.

Chloé still picks on Marinette, but she will defend her if someone else does. Nobody gets to pick on her except for Chloé.

Sabrina often Insults Chloé under her breath.

Alya actually verifies her sources and doesn’t post anything she hears about Ladybug on her Blog.

Andre and Audrey are Divorced, due to Audrey’s Toxic Personality and because she cheated on Him.
