I realize you may not want to reveal your hand yet, which is completely understandable, but as one of her few fans, I must ask: will Lila be redeemed in your angelic layer au? (Or will she show up at all?) (No shade/anger if she's not redeemed, I just don't want to get my hopes up for one way or the other)

Congrats, you found the unredeemed character! Lila will be a very important story character and will be her canonic nasty self, and in a story about a game, cheaters never prosper!

I'll also clarify that yes I'm "redeeming" Gabriel, but I'm also not making him go as far as canon. He let's Adrien go to school and have friends because I'm killing Emilie years before the story proper starts, his *main* boundary is that he doesn't want Adrien playing Angelic Layer so he doesn't have much "redemption" to go through. Kinda like SL Lila!

so was this the neurodivergent friendship problems episode or what

[wield-the-mighty-pen]

Can we all just take a moment to think of what it must of meant to alternate universe Marinette to read her diary and her life, except it’s different.

Her life, except she has friends she spends time with and has fun with. Her life, except she has parents who love her and support her. Her life, except she has a partner who is always there for her. Her life, except she has a support system, she has people, she has love and strength from others to support her.

Her life, except it’s not.

And no amount of wishing, or magic, or power with make it hers.

that one fleabag scene but make it marichat

[redtippedfox]

Lady Noire stared down at her claws, her shiny green claws glistened in the sunlight as the wind drifted through her black braided locks, the feeling felt so free. Because that’s what it was, freedom. Being the black cat was freedom, the feeling of destruction and no worries gone as she could leap over buildings, nap in the sunlight, and fear no responsibility. That’s why whenever her and Chat switched Miraculouses Marinette was always hesitant, because she hated the taste of freedom, it was something she couldn’t have.

The battle was over and Mister Bug was finishing up, tossing his lucky charm in the air. She couldn’t help but clench her fist trapping the black cat ring on her hand, she didn’t want to switch back so soon, she wanted to stay as the black cat for just a few more minutes before she had to go back to living her life in fear and misery. But as she opened her mouth to request a few minutes more she snapped it close as she saw Mister Bug’s annoyed face. He was done being Ladybug for the day, he wanted his freedom back. So she agrees, their relationship already broken enough and she didn’t want another fight breaking out between them.

She stares back down at the ring, the feeling of freedom so tempting to take it and run, but she doesn’t she hides behind the wall just as Mister Bug does and pulls the ring off. The feeling of freedom is gone, the never ending paranoia returned as Plagg gives her a sad smile and flies back to Chat, Tikki appears again with a smile and Marinette feels so bad that she hates that smile, that she hates the earrings the kwami hands her.

But she smiles and takes the earrings placing them back in her ears as the feeling of freedom is replaced with the pressure of a city on her back and the burning guilt seared her lobes. The feeling of fighting for another miserable day returns and Marinette transforms back into Ladybug and watches as Chat Noir hops away.

She stands there in the same spot as she always has since she was 13 and she couldn’t help but cry.

She longed for the taste of freedom once more…

Been a while since I've done something with fashion so have these

[xhanisai]

i love doodling marinette dupain cheng ladybug miraculous noir

[beelittle]

Marinette in a bun✨

[cometblaster2070]

the best miraculous au is the one where marinette accidently enters the paris olympics and somehow manages to win an absolutely staggering amount of gold medals in a variety of sports while also having absolutely no clue as to what the fuck she's doing.

side note: kagami is also there; yes, she does win gold in fencing, and yes, she does not have a clue in regards to whatever bullshit marinette's pulling or how marinette even got there, but she is definitely going to support her all the way.

[writer-rider-flirty-thirties]

'All she can see are the most beautiful green eyes and all she can hear is the serene music that speaks to her soul. The rest of the world melts away and all she wants to do is to tell them both how she feels and let the scales fall where they may...

... but then the world materializes again as a pretty purple butterfly flies above their heads, Ladybug is needed, and Marinette's balancing act resumes.'

Another amazing piece I commissioned from @edorazzi !!!! I'm literally buzzing in my seat with how much I love this!!! It's for Chapter 2 of Struggling for its anniversary a few months ago! Please go check edorazzi out!
