Can Marinette Bench press a building?!

(Ladybugs, also known as lady beetles or ladybird beetles, are able to carry objects that are up to 1,000 times their own weight due to the unique structure of their exoskeletons. An exoskeleton is an external protective covering that provides support and protection to the insect's body. This covering is made up of a material called chitin, which is a strong and lightweight polymer. The exoskeleton also gives ladybugs their characteristic shiny, hard shells. Ladybugs use their powerful leg muscles to lift and carry heavy objects, such as large leaves or other insects. The unique structure of their exoskeleton allows them to distribute the load evenly across their body, making it possible for them to carry heavy objects without being weighed down. Additionally, their strong legs and other muscles are equipped to sustain this weight too)

But like with her legs???

I wanna see a MLB x DC fic where Marinette is working with young justice and like a building fucking falls on them but marinette just fucking kicks it away. Or picks it up. Itd be even more absurdly funny if she wasn't transformed and the super strength is like a kwami side effect.

WHAT IS MARINETTES WEIGHT? IS THERE A CANNON ANSWER??? DO I HAVE TO PULL A MATPAT AND DO PIXEL MEASUREMENT MATHAMATICAL BULLSHIT???? I WANNA KNOW IF SHE CAN LOFT A BUILDING OR NOT!!!

Ideal/Dream 5th VA For Carmelita Fox: Cristina Vee 🩵🎧🎙💋🦊⭐🔫💙🧡

And finally, for my PlayStation Venus 3 idea as well as future Sly Copper games (C'MON SONY😒), I have quite a good and hot idea for who should be the next and 5th voice actress for Inspector Carmelita Montoya Fox!

1st VA was Roxana Ortega in Sly Cooper and the Thievius Racconus (2002). 2nd was Alésia Glidewell in Sly 2: Band of Thieves. 3rd was Ruth Livier in Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves. And 4th was Grey Delisle in Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time.

So....imagine the chosen one as Carmelita's 5th VA will be Cristina Valenzuela aka Cristina Vee!

Vee always has this lovely, vibrant and sexy sound going on whenever she voice acts certain characters. I believe that she may make another good fit as Carmelita's voice actress. Now, I know that in some of her roles, Vee tends to sound younger; however, there are some roles where she performs an older tone when it comes to voicing adult females.....especially when she sounds totally seductive, which has always been one of Vee's charms in voice acting.

Plus, Valenzuela is also beautiful and dazzling as a singer! She has a YouTube channel Cristina Vee (or CristinaVeeMusic) where she either sings covers, her own original songs or English versions of anime and video game music. Therefore, imagine Carmelita not only good at dancing (remember her belly dance from Sly 4 😏), she could also be blessed with a magical and sexy singing voice. It would be so beautiful to watch a either a CGI or most likely animated cutscene of Carmelita performing on stage to a huge crowd as she not only puts her audience into awe with her dancing, but also Vee as Carmelita singing! When Carmelita sings, her listeners would feel like they're in paradise or heaven....

Now, here are some of Cristina Vee's credited roles:

Rei Hino/Sailor Mars of Sailor Moon (Viz version & Crystal)

Shantae of Shantae and the Pirate Curse, Shantae Half-Genie Hero, and Shantae and the Seven Sirens.

Homura Akemi of Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Maria Gomez of Resident Evil: Vendetta (her voice is how I would hear Carmelita sounding like if Vee were to voice her in my PSV3 idea and upcoming Sly games)

Killua Zoldyck of Hunter x Hunter 2011

Verosika Mayday of Helluva Boss

& Marinette Dupain-Cheng/Ladybug of Miraculous Ladybug

Cristina Vee as Carmelita Fox

Finally, any thoughts to share please? 🩵🎧🎙💋🦊⭐🔫💙🧡

Be Careful What you Wish for- A Season 6 Miraculous ficlet

Chloé bit her lip to keep from panting. The climb had been excruciating. Any number of tools would have made it easier. Sabrina was the one who normally thought of these things.  Now it was just Chloé on her own, and she was way out of practice with thinking. Climbing though, climbing she could do. Spite helped too. Banished to London for a summer! The last words of that Dupain-Cheng still echoed in her head. Ridiculous am I? I’ll show you ridiculous.

This is how Chloé ended up dressed all in black and perched atop the Dupain-Cheng bakery. The trapdoor down was unlocked, which was good, because she’d forgotten the prybar back home. She lifted the door slowly and listened… silence.  Chloé crept down onto Dupain-Cheng’s bed and- Froze.

“No, I’ve made up my mind. I’m going to tell him. I have to tell him before the school year starts. It’s a new beginning. I’ve got a new recipe baking downstairs for the first day of class. I’m going to do things right this year, from the start,” Marinette’s voice carried more than the usual agitation.

“But Marinette,” a high pitched voice answered back, “What good would it do? He seems happy the way things are. Everyone does!” A series of unidentifiable clicks sounded from below.

Marinette’s reply was quieter, “Happy lies, Tikki? My word as empty as this box is right now? It’s eating me up inside. Will it be easier or harder if it comes out some other way?”

“Who else would know?”

The sound of pacing down below. “It doesn’t make it right Tikki, just because you don’t get caught. Argh. You know what? I’ll practice on Cat Noir! He should know too. I just don’t want him feeling guilty when he hears the full story. I know my partner, he’ll blame himself.”

CAT NOIR?! Chloé bit her knuckle to keep from screaming. The bed shifted just slightly under her. She froze again, dancer's training allowing her to lock every joint in place.

“I don’t know, Marinette. He might ask why you kept the secret, and that might clue him in as to-”

“Marinette!” a deep voice boomed up from below, “Honey, the oven is smoking!”

“Oh no!” Marinette squeaked, “My cookies! C’mon Tikki!”

A thump, a familiar scramble, another thud, and the sound of MArinette’s feet pounding down the steps.

Chloé dared to unfreeze, letting her breath out in a gasp. She clamped her lips shut again and screamed wordlessly into her closed mouth.

DUPAIN-CHENG?! Of ALL people?

A little voice soothed that if it was true then at least Chloé’s life had been upended by someone with superpowers, and that made it a little easier to stomach.  The rest of her sprung into action though, racing down the stairs to Marinette’s room proper. She was doubly bent on revenge now. There had to be somethin-

It would have been so easy to miss. It was just a single line, a crack of color from a drawer left barely ajar. It was Marinette’s tacky sewing chest, but that color… Chloé hooked her finger in the crack and pulled the drawer open slowly. For the second time in as many minutes she nearly swallowed her tongue.

She knew it instantly. She’d held it once before. That gaudy red bulb of a box. The Miracle box. It sat there, solid proof that she hadn’t misunderstood, that Dupain-Cheng hadn’t just gone insane or been playing pretend. This was all real. Chloé lost sense of time. The past year was running itself through her mind, this new reality fitting itself into every interaction. She needed to scream. She needed to scream more than she ever had in her whole life. She couldn’t even begin to guess what she would scream about, or why, but the need was overwhelming.

Another harsh thumping from below cut off the explosion, making her swallow the scream painfully. Footsteps- Dupain-Cheng! Chloé grabbed the box, not even knowing why anymore. She shoved the drawer shut and bolted up to the bed. She almost made it to the trap door.

The creak from below left her poised, one hand on the thin barrier to her escape.

“-hy not?!” Marinette normally reserved that level of anger for her, “It’s over, we beat Monarch. The Butterfly is probably lodged in a filter at the local sewage treatment plant. It’ll end up in a Landfill, which as far as I’m concerned is the best place for it.”

“But Marinette…” Tikki protested.

“No buts, Tikki. I’m making changes aren’t I? Cat Noir can know. It’s time. The two of us can coordinate the team so much better if we aren’t chasing each other’s shadows half the time.”

“Marinette, it’s not over.”

“It is Tikki, we won!” That wasn’t the sound of disagreement, it was the sound of a plea.

“Even if the Ladybug isn’t needed right now, you’ll always be the guardian, Marinette. You can’t let your guard down.”

Marinette let out a growl of frustration, “Gah! Forever? I’m fourteen Tikki! I can’t believe-”

She cut herself off. Chloe could hear her deep inhale and exhale.

“I’m sorry, Tikki. I’m grateful. I’m grateful for your advice. I’m grateful I’ve had the chance to help so many people. I’m grateful for the changes in my life. I’m grateful for all of it. Still, there are times that I just wish…

“I dream of it sometimes, Tikki. Someone comes along. I hand them the box and I say. ‘I’m done. You are the Guardian now. I’m going to go live a normal life with those I love. I wish you luck in your new Guardianship, may it be easier than mine.”

Chloé’s head bounced off Marinette’s wall. The wave of sudden nausea gave her no choice. There was a shout of alarm from below. Chloe threw caution to the wind and scrambled up to the roof, silence be damned.

As the trapdoor slammed shut behind her Dupain-Cheng’s voice carried up, “Help! It’s a giant bug! A Mouse! A Bug-Mouse!”

Part 8 of Marinette Dupain-Cheng is Dead | Masterlist

TW: a bit of SH, noncon touching

Lila sat in her dimly lit apartment with a souring mood on her face. One hand tapped against the side of her hot mug while the other held a fingernail wedged between her teeth. She stared at the email from her PR and legal team, which promised that they would put out the flames and advised that she kept quiet for the meantime so as to not worsen the situation. But it's not enough, she bitterly thought. No matter how much cleanup they do, those rumors were scars that would forever mar the face of her company.

She let out a slow breath. My sales will be affected, the employees, our suppliers. Why, why does this have to happen now? She switched to another window that showed an article detailing the designs she 'stole' from the deceased girl. I was taking inspiration, she seethed. Aren't those designs better off seeing the light of fame than being stuck in a piece of paper? If Marinette were alive, she should be thanking her.

Sharp trills from her doorbell snapped her out of her stupor. Quickly, she told herself to calm down and let the issues pass—people move on from one intriguing gossip to another in no time anyway. She glided over to her door and opened it up, expecting to see her assistant to greet her.

But instead, a tall blonde man was on the other side of the door.

"Adrien!" The smile froze on her face, albeit also showing slight surprise. "When I said I wanted to meet you, I was expecting to go to your place or something."

"I thought I should come to you instead, so I don't need to see your face ever again." His voice was devoid of any warmth, eyes lacking their usual shine. In fact, it was the coldest Adrien had ever been in front of her, as he clearly didn't bother to hide his disdain.

Lila snorted. "How nice of you. Won't you come in?"

Adrien actually stepped into the place, but only by the living room. Out of obligation, Lila headed into the kitchenette to open up the cupboards and look for something to serve him. "Want anything to drink? Eat?" She hummed. "I think I still have cheesecake cups from an influencer friend of mine . . . or oolong tea?"

"I don't want anything. I'm not planning on staying long."

"You look well." She tilted her head. "We didn't even get to talk much in the reunion. It feels like you were avoiding me."

"I was, in fact."

Lila paused, and looked at him with narrowed eyes. Can't we play pleasantries just for a while, Agreste? "Fine." Her lip curled as she neared him. "You don't want to talk like mature adults, I get it. I'll go straight to the point. Are you behind all those rumors?"

"No," Adrien replied coolly. "If it were me, if I were trying to protect Marinette's designs, don't you think I would've done that a long time ago?" A ghost smile flickered on his lips. "But I do think it's well-deserved for you. Your current silence means you've been put into your place."

"'Put into my place'?" Lila echoed. Maybe it isn't you, or maybe it is and you've just been waiting for the right time to strike. "Those posts are ruining the reputation of my brand! They're baseless rumors trying to make me look bad!"

"How are they baseless when you've clearly tried to rip off Marinette's creations and even designs from small businesses?" Adrien asked.

She scoffed, "Now you're insulting me just because you're back from that hiatus of yours? Look, I've built my company with my own hard work and talent. I get that you're hurt about Marinette's death but I don't deserve this for my petty lies in collège and lycée. They were white lies! I was trying to make friends. Why do you think our class ended up being so close after these years?"

Lila could see the enclosed rage in Adrien's eyes, one with a fire that burned as strong as the one setting off inside her, but he didn't act on it. His tone was calm and unwavering, albeit holding a silent venomous undertone. "You can't call your lies petty if they've hurt someone badly. You didn't make the class so enamored with you—you trapped them and manipulated them that they have no choice but to play along if they didn't want to be dragged to hell with you."

She put herself closer to him, looking him in the eye. Why did Gabriel have to go so soon? Why couldn't you have stayed obedient like you had all those years?

"That's bold coming from you," she whispered, breath touching his skin. He flinched a little. "You and I both know Gabriel would've entrusted his company to me, if you weren't already written out in his will."

She slid a hand up his chest, then to his shoulder, and down his arm. "I don't think the company is even holding up right now. When's the last time it had a show? What was the last design you released—"

"—Don't touch me—"

Her hand cupped his cheek lightly, but when he moved away, she grasped his forearms instead. "If you're smart, you'll realize you can't handle it alone. You need me, you need his protégé. My company can partner up with yours and you'll be back on your feet in no time."

But Adrien pulled away again, more forcefully this time, and glowered at her. "I think it's the other way around—it's you who needs me. If you can get me on your side, you have another celebrity backing you up, or you can divert attention from the scandals with another partnership."

Lila clenched her jaw, clasping her hands behind her back and leaning in to give him a saccharine smile. "Unfortunately, I don't stoop that low. If you don't want us to help each other, that's your loss." She ran a hand through her long hair. "Your father's company will go bankrupt, and Lilia Designs will be the new top fashion brand."

Calm down, she told herself. Although Adrien wasn't an option to be a pawn anymore, it wasn't that big of a deal. She just wanted to feel a little bit of satisfaction if she could put him under her thumb, see him helpless and compliant. But I can't lose my nerve here. If I lash out, I lose. I just need to be the bigger person.

"That's quite confident of you, Lila," Adrien said forebodingly. "We'll see, I suppose."

***

"There's one more thing we want to ask. Felix Fathom—was he related in any way to the case?"

"My cousin? What makes you think so?"

He saw some hint of hesitance on Tim's face. "He had trips back and forth from London to Paris at that time."

"He was helping take care of me after Marinette died while juggling his responsibilities at home." He shrugged. "Technically, I had no family anymore, aside from him and my aunt."

"Is there any way we can talk to him?"

He paused for a few beats, thinking it over. Then he replied: "I can put in a word for you, but I can't guarantee that he'll be available. His schedule's pretty tight nowadays."

He slammed the car door shut as soon as he got onto the seat. That woman's touch was still ghosting on his arms, making his skin crawl. His stomach was a gurgling pit of nausea and his jaw was clenched tight. Was that how Lila acted this whole time?

He kept himself from shivering while starting up the car. It had been a while since he adopted an alter ego, and still, he was yet to fully understand his cousin. Even as he donned Adrien's clothes, and messed up his hair to match the unkempt style, he felt like an impostor in his own skin. Ever since he appeared in the class reunion a couple weeks ago, a voice would nag at him telling him that he was a fake.

Adrien wore many masks, more than what Felix could bear to put on.

And now, Felix finally knew how much Lila had tormented Adrien. Disgusting. She's disgusting. His hands tightened around the steering wheel as he drove. He went through all of that, under the clutches of that vile woman.

But he knew he was the one who chose to be put in that situation. The job is done . . . the recorder is working and the camera was in place. He took a deep breath. Everyone will finally know her true colors.

Everything was slowly coming into fruition, but it wasn't over until Lila met her downfall.

Felix drove around for a few minutes just to make sure no one was tailing him. Then, he sped up and headed for the outskirts of Paris, in an isolated apartment building. He shrugged off his jacket after parking the car, and reached the top floor just as the first drizzle drops of an incoming storm pattered on the windows.

When he opened the door, he found an occupant inside already.

"How was it?"

Felix ran a hand through his hair, idly shutting the door. "Don't give me that look. It went fine."

"It's a live feed, Felix, I saw you." Marinette spun on her chair, following his figure with a disapproving stare. "I saw everything."

Felix tugged at his collar. "It was fine, it was my idea and my decision." Even if I hated her hands on me. "We got the video and it'll smear her reputation if the accusations on her haven't already."

He peeked at the computer where she had just been working, looking to change the subject. "What's that?"

Marinette sighed as she turned back to the screen. "Other testimonies popping up about Lila copying other designs. Turns out it's not only clothes—even accessories and jewelry too."

Figures, he thought. She can never be original. "Well, she got awfully greedy."

"I don't understand her sometimes," the bluenette murmured, "I saw her cry real tears at my funeral, and yet here she is, stealing from the deceased on purpose."

Felix poured himself a glass of water to dispel the sour taste in his tongue. "It's because she thinks she's not doing anything wrong."

He watched as she switched to the second screen, one displaying a high-security website with a sleek modern design. Big letters spelled out the brand: Mira Designs. A few months back, he had argued with her that a new branding could give her away because of the similarity to her former designs. But Marinette had firmly promised that that wouldn't be the case.

And that became the truth: 'Mira's' designs were different, better even, mirroring a rebirth in Marinette's creativity following the new life she'd made for herself. Lila's company paled in comparison, and Mira Designs had gained traction in such a short span of time. Although Felix wasn't an expert in fashion, he could see that Marinette was on her way to become a celebrity in the fashion world. But the appeal point in her company was that the designer herself remained mysteriously anonymous.

"We'll be hitting our quota by the end of the week." Marinette showed him the current numbers. "And you said you didn't believe in my designing abilities."

"I didn't say that." Felix rolled his eyes.

"You implied it." An amused smile tugged at her lips.

"You wouldn't be making these sales without my business expertise."

"Oh, right, yes I'm sorry Mr. Fathom, I must get on my knees and thank you for your help."

Felix snorted and grabbed his things again. He was reaching for the doorknob when Marinette stopped him.

"Where are you going?"

"Out. I need some air," he lied.

Of course she wouldn't buy that. She raised an eyebrow.

"I'm going out to visit Adrien," he finally said truthfully. "Just fix up dinner for yourself. I might come back late."

Lilamoth's Rogue's gallery, a (very) rough draft fanfic premise

I've been having so much fun coming up with oc’s for my crack theory that Lilamoth is collecting siblings (and they’re all Luka’s exes lmao). And yes, Lilamoth has successfully stolen 2/3 of their identities...

All three characters are sentimonsters, and their amoks are reconfigured Miraculous in the form of locking bracelets that cannot be removed, stolen long ago from the Native American Miracle Box, courtesy of Colt Fathom’s American weapons manufacturer and Tsurugi Industries.

All of the animals their Miraculous are based off of are known to attack and kill domestic cats… Make of that as you will :)

Due to Gabemoth making the Wish in a previous universe, the entire show of Miraculous is a 15 year time loop. All three children were once previous holders of the Ladybug Miraculous, and due to various reasons, failed to stop Gabemoth from making his Wish. With every Wish he made, the Ladybug holder was turned into a sentimonster in their subsequent Wish.

You can see how this all bodes for our Maribug…

Continued under the cut:

Marina Verdi

Birthday: August 18, 2000 Chinese zodiac: Dragon Sun sign: Leo Decan: third/Aries (Mars) Moon sign: Aries Rising sign: Capricorn

First up we have Marina Verdi. She’s the girl who Lilamoth disguised herself as in the season 5 finale. Just like the disguise, she has a black bob haircut, ocean blue eyes, and wears a pair of glasses. She is half Chinese, and half Italian (like a certain polka-dotted hero…). In fact, she is actually the biological older sister of Marinette.

The Dupain-Chengs fell on hard times in their young marriage, due to Tom’s father disowning him because he married a Chinese woman. They were solicited by Tsurugi Industries to join an experimental fertility treatment for a sum of money. If the couple adopted out the subsequent child to an employee of Tsurugi Industries, they’d receive an additional lump sum of cash. The couple were eager to find out why they were having issues conceiving, so they made the decision to join the trial. Little did they know that Sabine would be implanted with a sentimonster embryo.

Sabine had an uneventful pregnancy, and delivered a healthy baby girl 9 months later. The baby was swiftly adopted by Mrs. Verdi, a single woman, and high ranking employee of Tsurugi Industries.

The child was named Marina, and her girlhood was a standard upper middle class one. She never met her biological parents, due to a waver the couple signed. Tom and Sabine invested the money they received from having her in a bakery located in a fashionable part of Paris. The bakery is still very successful, and considered one of the best in Paris.

Marina’s hobbies are video games, EDM, and computers. She loves school, learning, and is extremely smart, but is kind of snotty about it. She’s a bit of a lone wolf and has a sour disposition.

She has a gorgeous singing voice and was the original vocalist of Kitty Section before she and Luka broke up due to her being a jerk. Marina is cis and bisexual. She is currently in a devoted relationship with Shone. Shone is less of a pushover than Luka was, so it is a far less unbalanced relationship than the one she had with Luka. It also helps that they are much more compatible, and Marina is completely smitten with her girlfriend. They help each other be better people. Marina considers Shone her better half, and often calls Shone “her little bird” or “her quail” (French: “Mon petite oiseau”, and “Ma caille”—“ça caille” (short for the French word for coagulating) is slang for “it’s freezing”!)

Marina always attends Shone’s ballet and figure skating practice, and often writes music for her to dance or skate with.

Marina has a younger adoptive brother… Wayhem. There’s a reason we haven’t learned his last name yet. Wayhem is the biological younger brother of Lilamoth. It’s a long story… Marina and Wayhem don’t get along very well, as they are both headstrong and complete opposites. It doesn’t help that Wayhem insists on practicing his saxophone while Marina is trying to study.

Marina and Kagami form a friendship based off of quick witted banter and their love to throw shade, but Kagami sometimes thinks Marina goes too far. Shone is just happy Marina finally has a friend. Lilamoth is happy she has another Avenue of exploiting them all. Later on in the series, Marina also develops a surprising friendship with Nino due to their shared love of EDM.

Marina wields the Miraculous of the Coyote, and her theme color is a deep reddish gray color. I have yet to decide what her weapon is, but it’ll probably be some sort of pole weapon, like a scythe. Based off of several Native American myths where the coyote stole fire (or the sun) from the gods to give to humans, Her powers should be elemental and fire based. In some Native American folklore, coyotes are seen as beings of creation, and wildfires are often beneficial to the environment and help facilitate new growth. There’s probably some meta about how her biological father creates his livelihood with fire while baking. Fire also compliments Shone’s ice powers, which is just icing on the cake—pun intended.

Marina’s villain name is Cania.

Of the three, Marina has the second-most trouble coming to terms with being a sentimonster and being under Lilamoth’s and Tsurugi Industry’s thumbs. Despite her element, fire, she closes herself off and acts coldly to cope.

Marina’s civilian outfit is a black leather jacket, pink T-shirt, gray blue skinny jeans, and a pair of brown heeled leather lace up boots. Marina’s civilian outfit is inspired by Marinette’s pre-series 7th grade outfit she wears in her class photo in Reflekta and the episode Derision.

Shone Bianca

Birthday: January 28, 2001 Chinese zodiac: Snake Sun sign: Aquarius Decan: first/Aquarius (Uranus) Moon sign: Pisces Rising sign: Libra

Shone Bianca is a strikingly elegant and beautiful girl. She has black blonde hair, which is usually pulled back in a bun, rich gray eyes, and fair skin. She is half Italian, and half German.

Her mother, Mrs. Bianca is an upper management employee of Audrey Bourgeois’ fashion empire. Mrs. Bianca married a rich corporate lawyer, and through her husband’s employer (either Tsurugi Industries or Colt’s warlord company. I haven’t decided which one yet), used a surrogate to have their eldest daughter Annalise.

Annalise can do nothing wrong in her parents’ eyes. She has excellent grades, is a talented ballet dancer, and has many friends. She’s currently working on a business degree at a prestigious university, which is fully sponsored by a scholarship through either Colt’s war empire or Tsurigi Industries. 

After a few years of raising young Annelise, Mr. And Mrs. Bianca decided to hire another surrogate for another baby. Little did they know, they actually hired someone to carry a sentimonster child. It was a fraught pregnancy with many health scares. Shone was born a premature sickly newborn and it put strain on the couple. In a chaotic series of events, it came out that Mr. Bianca had a mistress (Lilamoth’s biological mother… it’s a long story).

The couple separated. Mrs. Bianca blamed infant Shone for her failed marriage, and hired a revolving door of Nannies to take care of the child, all while doting immense amount of attention and care on Annelise.

Mrs. Bianca quickly hired another surrogate. This new baby would be her comeback baby. The surrogate had a boy, and Mrs. Bianca was over the moon. She named her darling baby boy Louis.

Annelise and Louis grew up close and were coddled by Mrs. Bianca, while Shone was ignored and ridiculed by her mother. Although her siblings are never outwardly cruel to Shone, she still feels like an outsider in her own family.

The two character models I've chosen to be Annelise and Louis, courtesy of the episode "Qilin"

Like her older sister, Shone is an accomplished ballerina. She takes ballet from Aurélie Dupoint, and is in Chloe's class.

Although she loves ballet, Shone uses ballet as a means to cross train for her true passion: figure skating. She takes skating lessons from Philippe, and dreams of one day going to the Winter Olympics. Philippe insists she is ready, but Shone is still unsure.

Shone is close friends with Blonde Runner Girl with Prosthetic Legs, and Adrien. She was actually in a semi-successful relationship with Luka for a short time being, but due to her comphet, and both of their conflicting baggages, there were too many issues. They broke up messily, but it was for the best. Luka wishes nothing but the best for Shone.

Shone met Marina and realized she is a lesbian, and is much happier in her own skin. Shone supports Adrien with his own comphet, and is the first person he ever comes out as gay with.

Shone wields the miraculous of the Falcon. Her costume is white, and gray, with a tiny amount of gold. She “wears” gold pointe shoes to suggest the yellow feet of gyrfalcons, the bird her kwami and costume is based off of. I think her power should be elemental, and ice based, which mirrors Cania’s fire powers. Her weapon is a rope dart, that is sort of fashioned like a yo-yo.

Shone’s villain name is Odette.

Of the three, Shone has the most troubles coming to terms with being a sentimonster, and her life general, being under Lilamoth’s, and Tsurugi Industry’s thumbs. Despite her element, ice, she lashes out hotly in anger, and is impulsive to cope.

Shone’s civilian outfit is based off of PV Bridget, and Marinette’s season 6 outfit. She wears blue denim shorts with white lace trim, tights, a white blouse with pearl buttons, black jacket with white cuffs, and ballet flats. Shone's civilian outfit is this:

Jean Duparc

Birthday: July 7, 2000 Chinese zodiac: Dragon Sun sign: Cancer Decan: Second/Scorpio (Pluto) Moon sign: Virgo Rising sign: Aquarius

Last up we have Jean Duparc. He is Lilamoth’s biological older twin brother. (It’s a long story…) His birth name is Mio DeAngelo, but his social worker insisted he change it to something more “French” in order to more appeal to potential adopters, as it is difficult enough to adopt out an 10 year old Romani child who was born in Tokyo, Japan (it’s a long story…) and was held back in school. (He started school late due to the issues with his home life making it difficult to attend, and he was held back in 7th grade, as he was having issues with his dyslexia.) Dispite all this, he enjoys learning, even if it’s more difficult for him than other children.)

Jean in Marinette's 7th grade class during the flashback in Derision, and then Jean in Ms. Mendeleiv's 7th grade class in Reflekta

Odile Duparc recently dopted him, and Jean is quite fond of her. She is a bit of a scatterbrained mother, and has big dreams. It seems more like Jean is the parent at times, but the two are close.

Jean is a kind, sweet, but shy boy. He’s a bit has trouble forming bonds with people, due to his tumultuous young childhood. He briefly met Luka in a youth group home before he was adopted. The pair formed a friendship, and once got in trouble for sneaking out and going dumpster diving. They lost contact due to the fact that Luka’s mysterious father paid a prestigious lawyer to return Luka and Juleka back to their mother. (Luka and Juleka were taken away from Anarka unjustly, due to racism against their Romani heritage.)

Jean and Luka met by chance a few years later, and were in a sweet but short relationship. Luka doesn’t know why Jean broke it off, but respects his decision, even if it hurts. He wishes nothing but the best for Jean.

Jean is the holder of the Raccoon Miraculous and his weapon is a comically oversized kendama, which he uses as a giant hammer and battering ram. He is the heavy hitter of the trio. Not sure what his power should be, but probably some sort of variation of Uproar, as raccoons are known to be chaotic. Maybe when he activates his power, it causes and “event” that he has to figure out how to work in his favor, a bit like manipulating fate, to compliment the Ladybug’s lucky charm, as opposed to the Monkey’s power to disrupt powers.

Jean’s villain name is Hermes.

Unlike Marina and Shone, Jean quickly comes to terms with being a sentimonster. He also knows the kind of person his twin, Lilamoth is, and what to expect from her. His life has never been easy, so he’s used to being used and manipulated, but he still has issues with being Tsurugi Industry’s pawn, and does his best to protect Marina and Shone from the brunt of it.

In the previous universe where he was Ladybug, his Chat Noir was Felix, and they were deeply in love.

Unfortunately, their Miraculouses required a kiss to remove. And on top of that, they had to contend with secret identities.

During their finale battle between the pair and the Miracularized villains, the lovers shared their first and final kiss and traded Miraculous in order to best hide from the millions of scanners locked on their position.

They find and confront Gabemoth.

But Gabemoth has the upper hand and casts Voyage. He sends the new Cat holder to the surface of the sun.

Felix yo-yos a brace, and grabs Jean’s outstretched hand. But the gravitational pull was too great.

Jean’s hand slips from Felix’s.

Gabemoth Clouts Felix’s chest, launching the child across the crypt, and closes the portal

All that there is left of of Jean is the Black Cat ring clutched in Felix’s fingers.

Felix starts to stir. He has to combine the Ladybug and the Black cat to defeat Gabriel.

Gabemoth sends out an akuma to the ring.

“Tikki! Pla—AUGH!” The boy crumples to the ground.

It was child’s play after that. Gabemoth makes his Wish.

pt. 4: an analysis of the different vedic themes within miraculous ladybug

i have some lingering notes and observations that i did not include in the analysis that i’d like to discuss. this also includes spoilers, so read at your own discretion.

before the days got filled with responsibilities, i was an avid miraculous ladybug watcher. to this day, i still keep up with the show during my free time. throughout these past few years, i’ve deep dived into the knowledge of vedic astrology and progressively started to recognize themes present in the show that coincided with certain nakshatras. this is part one of my research, a deep dive into the vedic astrology of miraculous: the tales of ladybug and cat noir. 

-> i used the birthdays of the voice actors and actresses to confirm my findings.

director [thomas astruc]: uttara bhadrapada moon & uttara ashadha sun

gabriel agreste/hawkmoth [keith silverstein]: vishakha moon & mula sun [as the show progresses, his name changes to monarch, however i'm going to refer to him as hawkmoth throughout the analysis].

marinette dupain-cheng/ladybug [cristina vee]: uttara ashadha moon & punarvasu sun

adrien agreste/cat noir [bryce papenbrook]: magha moon & shatabhisha sun

chloe bourgeois [selah victor]: anuradha/jyeshta moon & ashwini sun 

-> definitions

miraculous: magical jewelry containing hidden powers that transforms the wearers into animal-themed superpowered beings.

miracle box: holds all 36 miraculouses when they aren’t in use. 

akumatized: regular people who are transformed into villains. 

cataclysm: the superpower to destroy anything the person touches.

absolute wish: aka the ultimate miraculous absolute power, grants a person one wish to ask for anything in the universe. 

this analysis of the show is my interpretation and is all up for interpretation! 

please credit if shared through any type of means! 

･ﾟﾟ･｡

i originally was only going to analyze the themes of punarvasu and mula within the show because before researching, those were the two nakshatras themes that i noticed while watching the show. i had a feeling ladybug was a punarvasu native, however i thought cat noir was a mula native (he’s magha, so close in terms of both being fire signs & ketu nakshatras). then, delving deeper into the research, i discovered and recognized the interplay between different nakshatras and had to include them. 

the director has a punarvasu saturn and mula mars, so i wonder if he’s simply channeling those nakshatras in this creative work or he has one of those nakshatras as his ascendant. 

returning to punarvasu being granted a second chance, i wonder if the natives get freed from the negative consequences of their past actions. perhaps due to accepting learned lessons and repentance after the chaos from the previous nakshatra, ardra, and from their own repeating cycles, they’re granted mercy and grace. 

the repetition of each episode’s progression being someone getting akumatized, ladybug and cat noir fighting, and them being the victors in the end correlates to one meaning of punarvasu being repetition. this thought led to me wondering if children’s shows are ruled by punarvasu as most are episodic, but carries the same value of teaching through entertainment making the structure of an episode repeat. 

tikki and plagg needing nourishment when their energy is depleted after ladybug and cat noir have transformed for too long reminded me of pushya. pushya is the star of nourishment and its shakti is to create spiritual energy. tikki and plagg need to be nourished for them to have the energy to transform and give powers to marinette and adrien. so, i researched the VAs and tikki is a pushya sun and plagg is a pushya jupiter and ketu. one of the symbols for pushya is the cow’s udder and plagg is obsessed with camembert cheese that’s made out of cow’s-milk. additionally, pushya’s deity is brihaspati, also referred to as jupiter, and is the exaltation point of jupiter. jupiter rules over sweet food and tikki loves sweets. this is an example of pushya being nourished in order to nourish others. 

the previous point led me to wonder if the relationship between kwamis, the miraculouses, and their holders represents the transition between punarvasu to pushya. kwamis alone are divine, spirit-like beings that embody an abstract idea/concept. for example, tikki is the first kwami to exist and is the kwami of creation. she is connected to all versions of herself in the past, present, future, and parallel universes similar to how aditi represents those aspects and other aspects of existence. the kwamis’ powers are great, but are too strong and unfocused. this idea of kwamis reminded me of punarvasu as it’s a deva gana (divine) nak, a jupiter nakshatra signifying expansion without restriction and its deity, aditi signifying creation, boundlessness, and her being the universe itself. kwamis are not the universe itself, but abstract ideas/concepts which connects to punarvasu being the merge between a mercury rashi and a jupiter nak. the transition to pushya begins when the kwamis merge with their miraculouses. pushya is also a deva gana (divine) nakshatra and as stated previously, is the star of nourishment and creates spiritual energy. kwamis give spiritual energy to the miraculous of the holder to perform their designated power. when using their power, it’s to be used for good and not for self-gain or there’d be consequences. they need to be nourished to allow the holder to transform and the kwami magic protects their identity, so no one knows who the holders are. as the kwamis protect the holders, the holders protect the people. this connects to the transition from the cancer rashi of punarvasu into pushya as cancer relates to having mother-like qualities and mothers are known to provide protection to their children. the people of society can be considered the children of the universe. 

marinette, gabriel, and adrien all have jupiter influence. marinette is a punarvasu sun, gabriel is a vishakha moon & mula sun, and adrien has purva bhadrapada mercury and venus conjunct his primary sun placement. all the jupiter nakshatras connect to the idea of duality: punarvasu–twins, vishakha–forked branch, purva bhadrapada–two faces. 

one side note for gabriel’s connection to vishakha is that one of his villain names is shadow moth.

i didn’t get into adrien’s purva bhadrapada placements, but you can see the influence of this nakshatra in his character. It’s a lion yoni, a part of the feline family which connects to his name. also, the difference between adrien and cat noir’s character. where adrien is mellow yet respectful and kind, cat noir is outwardly very flirty and playful.

i was questioning whether adrien has either a magha or purva phalguni moon, and ultimately decided on a magha moon. my argument for purva phalguni was the dialogue for his perfume commercial being, “radiant, carefree, dreamy adrien the fragrance,” and purva phalgunis are known for playing dreamgirls / dreamy personas in the media. also, his choice of having a modeling career, however other factors made me go against the idea. 

one small pattern i picked up on: marinette is a punarvasu sun and tikki is a pushya sun. adrien is a magha moon/shatabhisha sun and plagg is a purva phalguni sun/purva bhadrapada moon. the nakshatras transition from the holders to the kwamis.

the kwamis nakshatras match them as tikki strictly focuses on the job at hand and restricts herself from any romantic relations with her partner while plagg is highly flirtatious and deeply romantic.
