#Adult Alya

[cookiemon96]

Happy Valentines Day guys. This is totally not a shameless way to add in stuff from my future miraculous comic.

[wield-the-mighty-pen]

The fact that Marinette, Alya, and Adrien are all good people and are just children who are trying their best with the situation they are in

Is not, and should not, be a controversial statement

[noneedtoheedtheweed]

I wanted to throw my hat into the Miraculous Au ring. Instead of Marinette being Ladybug, its Alya! She's also technically Multi/Polymouse and Mayura/Argos :]

She ends up having very 'if Lois Lane were Superman' vibes. She still runs the Ladyblog only as more of an informative blog with a side of raising funds for civilian aid and public conversation on Hawkmoth's (although not called Hawkmoth) identity and motives. With great journalistic power comes great journalistic responsibility I suppose.

Marinette isn't a superhero in this au, at least not for very long. She has too much to do between two jobs, school, and building up her portfolio. She will occasionally be Alya's camerawoman though.

Which miraculous ladybug character would work a minimum wage daycare job with screaming toddlers (asking for a friend)

[reigningrockets]

it finally fucking happened. after nearly 10 years it finally happened.

Chat Noir FINALLY Got a new fucking POWER!!!!!!

Ladybug has had more powers than chat this whole time even though they are supposed to be equal and balance out. Even though that was supposed to be the case, since season 1 Ladybug has had closer to Three powers as opposed to Chat's one power of Cataclysm. She not only had had Lucky Charm, which would be the opposite of cataclysm, but she also had the Miraculous Ladybug power AND the ability to cleanse akumas. Then later on she gains the whole charm thing and we dont even have to mention the abilities gained from her guardian position.

Since season 1 we have been waiting for Chat Noir to get some kind of upgrade since the show LOVES giving them to Ladybug and It finally fucking happened....

of course he still has fewer base powers than Ladybug for some damn reason but now having wow 2 powers as opposed to Ladybug's initial 3 but we pick and choose our battles and celebrate the little victories in this house or else the show will make me more insane than i already am.

Anyway his new ability to erase memories actually makes sense as his counterpart to the Miraculous Ladybug power. Ladybug fixes PHYSICAL things that were DESTROYED by a villain while Chat Noir destroys MENTAL things like memories CREATED by a villain. really clever.

[emsylcatac]

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE ALYA

[lethiepie]

miraculous ladybug giving me headaches

[twilight-good-yall-dumb]

Alya is the most real friend ever. She calls Marinette out on her bs but she's always so nice when she does it lmfao

[probablyaseamonster]

OOOOOOOOHGH

I've drawn more AmphibiaxMiraculous stuff than I should be proud to admit

[zoe-oneesama]

The Kwamis! Some of these came easier than others, but since Angelic Layer has no magic involved, all the kwamis became human~ They won't be very prevalent, they're mostly here to fill in background character roles - shop clerks, MCs Tournament Directors, fans - so they won't have a whole lot of speaking roles (aside from, you know, the MCs who're there to commentate on the fights lol). But I thought I'd give them all a nice nod in the story somewhere.

As expected, Tikki and Plagg are the main MCs. Marinette and Adrien's fights will be going on concurrently so Tikki will be commentating Marinette's fights while Plagg commentates on Adrien's. They'll have the most dialogue of the kwamis, so I do want them to have unique ways of discussing what they're seeing.

Pollen will be working directly for the Bourgeois'. As a VIP with a direct relationship with the international director of Angelic Layer, Chloe has her own private practice layer in her home and Pollen is in charge of it's upkeep and maintenance. She matches Armand the Bulter's levels of competence.

Trixx is a Rena Rouge mega fan. They've been following Alya's blog for as long as they can remember and are mega stoked that Alya moved to their city. When Alya starts to doubt herself, it's Trixx's voice that can be heard cheering her on to not give up.

Nooroo and Duusu are servants in the Agreste Estate. Unknown to Adrien, they are fully aware of his sneaking around to play and the two do what they can to make excuses and deflect Nathalie when Adrien isn't where he's supposed to be. They're rooting him on from the shadows!

Wayzz is the adult son of Marianne and Fu. He brings them to Angelic Layer fights against his will because the two really enjoy them. The two seem to be really invested in Ladybug and Chat Noir's career (and the behind the scenes shenanigans that they secretly spy on).

Longg is Kagami's bodyguard. Like Nooroo and Duusu, they are fully aware of what Kagami is doing behind her mother's back and feigns ignorance when Kagami pulls something..."sneaky" to get to a fight secretly.

Here's where we get into some existing jobs from the show:

Orikko and Kaalki are the "Layer Hot Girls (and boy)". lol I just thought it was funny that Angelic Layer even has them.

Mullo is the sales clerk at the Princess Piffle store (the store where you can buy your Angel and all the accessories). All of them lol. Mullo and her many many sisters who look just like her.

Barkk and Fluff take similar but still different roles (the uniforms are ALMOST the same but there are some tiny differences). So Barkk is the receptionist at the Practice Ring (literally you pay to reserve a mini-layer to practice on) while Fluff is the waitress/cashier at the cafeteria at the Tournament Center.

(and back to making shit up lol)

Daizzi is a nurse where Rose goes to the hospital and she has segmental localized vitiligo. Rose is particularly close to Daizzi since she helps Rose make her donations to the hospital.

Sass is the backstage directory, aka, the guy who makes things run. He has an earpiece that has the same diamond pattern as his pants on it! The anime does show one person who helps backstage, but I wanted to have a little fun with Sass's look and tie in to him being "in charge" of the kwamis.

Ziggy works at Socqueline's family art supply shop, which is frequented by Angelic Layer players who are on a bit of a budget. They love talking with the customers about their angels, though mostly the design part.

Stompp is Ivan's foster mother and Roarr his foster sister (Stompp's bio-daughter). I actually didn't think of what kind of job this outfit would be good for, but I think she'd make a good security guard - usually working at rock concerts, which she bonds with Ivan over, but she's also been hired for Angelic Layer tournaments. Sometimes sore losers get a little...violent.

Roarr falls in love with Juleka's Angel Purple Tigress immediately thanks to her pre-existing love of tigers in general. She's even bold enough to proclaim her love to Juleka herself!

Xuppu is Ondine's sibling and a fan of King Monkey, though they'll go out of their way to make fun of Kim himself. Secretly, they're very invested in Kim's career and get very upset on his behalf when he loses.

Violeon and Foulette

I know it’s not an update for the Minnie miraculous series, but I’ve been having some difficulty with the twins designs, so they’re taking a bit longer than Cat Man and Princess Ladybug did. For now, though, here’s some concept art for Villain Marinette and Adrien as the Peacock and Butterfly. This is concept art for a sort of reverse AU to Minnie Miraculous, where all the Adults are heroes, and these two get to be the antagonists of the series.

The general idea is that Gabriel doesn’t know Adrien is a Sentimonster in this AU, and Emilie created Adrien on her own. Grieving the loss of his wife, Gabriel begins carrying around the ring he gave her when the two of them were engaged, (the singular ring that Emilie used in this AU to house Adrien’s Amok,) and starts unknowingly feeding Adrien his sadness and desires to have his wife return. These desires corrupt Adrien, and he ends up finding and using the Butterfly miraculous in order to try and retrieve the Ladybug and Cat miraculous for the purpose of bringing Emilie back to life.

As for Marinette, without the Ladybug miraculous and Tikki to encourage her, she ends up feeling isolated and lacking in confidence at school, too scared to make friends or stand up to Chloe. (She has Alya, but is sure that Alya is afraid to open up to her because she doesn’t want to ruin what the two of them have.) She has a crush on Adrien though, and senses some of the same loneliness in him that she feels. Eventually, after spending a whole lot of time obsessively following him around, she finds out about his secret identity as Violeon, and, empathizing with his drive to bring his mother back, dons the Peacock miraculous and becomes Foulette in an attempt to be a part of his life.

So yeah, those are my villains. Both put their own desires second in order to please someone else, becoming corrupted by the need to be needed. Of course for Adrien he doesn’t realize it.

Oh, and yes, Marinette realizes pretty quickly that Adrien is a Sentimonster, and manages to track down his Amok. It takes her a while to figure out what it all means though, as she’s new to the Peacock miraculous and its powers. She’s in pretty deep before she pieces together what’s going on, and even longer before she’s brave enough to try and fix things.

But anyway, yeah. That’s them. :) I like them—they were both pretty fun to design, and I’m relatively happy with the results.

I have some curiosity about how marionette acted before fu’s death. Was she her normal self until fu died and she just snapped or was she already in a downward spiral and fu just accelerated it to its conclusion?

She was already hugely stressed out, then the memories of Chat Blanc caused a large amount of her trauma to kind of double down - now she had a visualization of what things could be like if she failed, after all, and those images don't leave you - then when Fu lost all his memories, of which she blames herself for, she started to rapidly decline, as it was very much like losing a loved one AND she was losing the only adult she could discuss her superhero stress with.

Lila saw how reserved Marinette was becoming and stabbed the last nail in the coffin by starting rumors about her that Alya tried to confront Marinette about. Marinette was too exhausted to defend herself, and tried to just brush things off, but Alya took that as confirmation that Mari was acting as badly as Lila said, and from there - with someone she considered a close if not THE closest friend - leaving her behind, Marinette galvanized herself.

(not long after that, Bunnix tried to approach her and do damage control, but she was too heavy handed, pushing Marinette further from everyone. things haven't been the same since.)

Hello! I wanted to share some initial sketches of the team

Can you tell which ones had references XD spoiler alert its Marinette and Adrien's faces and literally nothing else. This does not apply to the full bodies (Marinette having the wrong bangs)

Info dump about each adult character, other potential members of the team, and the miraculous

Alya Cesaire is one of the most well-known journalists in Paris. As Luciole (Firefly in English) and coleader of their team, she works with Felix to study the miraculous, their history, and nature, as well as translate the language of the grimoire.

Felix Graham de Vanily is the younger brother of Emilie Agreste- nee Graham de Vanily. Both are- or were in Emilie's case- doctors of European archeology and were famous in their field as siblings who conduct research together. After her mysterious disappearance, he became a professor at a prestigious Parisian university.

Nino Cesaire is Alya's husband and the uncontested heart of the team. He's the least famous of the five- though that doesn't say much as he is a well-known and well-liked DJ. Un/official fun uncle for the kiddos and brother figure to Kagami.

Chloe Bourgeois is the only publicly known hero on the team. She manages their media presence (at least officially as Alya does some of the work as well) as well as their legality with her father, the mayor. She has a set of twins: Zoe and Ray, who live in California with their father for safety reasons (well Ray does at least but that's not relevant to this story. Baby daddy is also secretly a villain but that is also not relevant to the Paris squad). Chloe is not doing too great where that's concerned as she's repeating her mother's failings when she promised herself she wouldn't.

Kagami Tsurgi is the newest member of the team before the rat and dog are lost. She's an Olympic fencer and international business major still under the not so gentle care of her mother. While everyone on the team has a different reaction to the barely-teens, she is the most initially hostile. Afterwards, she is by far the closest with the duo (potentially trio+ by then we'll see).

Marinette and Adrien's miraculi:

Marinette: mouse/rat primarily but do also use the goat (tee hee she's like her hero idol here), dragon, and pig

Adrien: dog primarily but do also use the tiger, monkey, and rooster (tee hee he's like his father here)

Other member(s) I'm considering for this team:

Future Alix with the rabbit- this one is a no brainer, but I think it would be fun as Alix is the same age as the kids. Speaking of...

Present Alix with the horse primarily and the snake and ox secondarily. One of the kid's closest friends, she would be replacing both canon Alya and Nino in this to make her, Marinette, and Adrien a trio. She's the smartest kid in school (balancing Max in a stem v. humanities way)

Extra note I didn't know where to place:

I like the idea that the zodiac miraculous serve as a bit of a practice/ training role to the heavy hitting ones (the 7 and the rabbit). Usually, the goat and tiger would fill this role for the ladybug and cat respectively, but Marinette and Adrien are a bit of a special case.

[sillysiluriforme]

I think you drew Luka smoking weed a couple of times, do you think that Marinette, stressed out, anguished, desperate for all this responsibility of being Ladybug, would smoke?

and nothing to do with the other, but what is the type of relationship that Marinette has with the rest of the characters? same as the serie? something like alya bff adrien loved(or something...) nathaniel gay friend

Marinette is desperately looking for a TRUSTWORTHY STABLE ADULT to tell her what to do and Luka seems like a good shot ! He’s an “””””adult”””” (HE’S 18.) he’s nice to her and he always talks like he knows what to do (HE DOES NOT.) So if he says maybe she should try weed ? She tries weed ! How does it go ?

Marinette does not try weed again.

I try to keep the AU somewhat canon compliant (I said try) so the core-4 stay the way they are but the rest of the class takes a little more work to befriend. The atmosphere at Lycée FDP is rancid. Some of their classmates start out a little hostile but they’re good kids. Mostly.
