I can't compete with that boy, I can't make you feel like that

Here's an idea I came up with last night. Marinette being Damien's twin and running away from the league of assassins because she couldn't take it is nothing new but the Marinette being trans part is new.

It would also make sense as to why the batfam didn't immediately recognize Marinette as being Damien's twin because of how much she changed. Seriously, last Damien knew he had a twin brother who hated being an assassin not a twin sister who is a magical girl superhero and a fashion designer, so a lot of the information they have on Marinette would be hella outdated.

Everyone in the Akuma class expect for the new kids knows that Marinette is trans. Lila's lies end up getting exposed after she finds out about Marinette being trans, and spinning some lie about how Marinette isn't trans and is pretending to be a girl so she can creep on the actual girls in the class. After that everyone who believed Lila's lie were shook when they heard that because they were there when Marinette was transitioning non medically, and how they are ready to fight Lila for saying that about Marinette.

Tom and Sebine are very supportive of their daughter and anyone who says otherwise I'ma fight them.

if there’s a superhero out there who is maintaining a secret identity, please know i WILL be trans allegory-ing you in my head. this goes double if you’re a teenager with at least one living parent (or parent-adjacent), triple if the parent doesnt quite “get it.” if you havent been transed yet i promise i havent skipped you, you’re in the queue, just wait your turn

This might exist already, but I think an au where Marinette and Adrien are both trans would be really interesting. The Miraculous reflects the user, so it stands to reason that it would make them pass a LOT better, maybe even changing things on a biological level (ie voices).

This ties in really well with Adriens story- he only really feels like he can be himself as Chat Noir, and I don’t think Gabriel would be the most accepting of a trans kid (even if he wasn’t transphonic per say, it could ruin his public image).

On the other hand, I think Marinettes parents would be a lot more accepting, and she could realistically be out to pretty much everyone as a trans girl. I think she would still be *extremely* shy, though, around Adrien, and being ladybug would be a huge confidence boost.

Also, just the themes of learning to be your authentic self that are present in the show work really well. I think being Chat would give Adrien the confidence he needs to come out as trans to all his friends (I'd imagine Nino would know from the jump, but he takes a little longer to come out to Alya and Marinette, then eventually his classmates).

Also, Chloe is bi in this au bc I say so. She has a crush on Adrien before and after he comes out.

go read @buggachat's genderfluid adrien fic right now. or else

[nerdicornnoir]

genderqueer lovesquare au where they both present as mostly fem as civilians but mostly masc as superheroes

Ladybug mentions that he has a crush on a girl in his class, and Adrien has a whole crisis bc "oh no he's straight" and Plagg has to remind them that they literally are a girl sometimes.

The same thing happens to Marinette when Adrien mentions thinking Ladybug is hot but she forgets for a minute that the "guy" in question is just her.

[the-knight-of-the-stars]

One of these days I'll finish writting the fanfic of this tiny Trans Reversed-Love Square Miraculous Ladybug AU that has been eating my brain:

— Adrien Agreste is Kitty Noir. Reclusive homeschooled rich supermodel by day, Paris superheroine by night.

—Adrien thinks of Kitty as just a persona he can play with, like a videogame avatar. ('It tootally doesn't mean anything that Kitty feels right, and like home, and like freedom, what are you talkikg about guys?' )

—Kitty is Ladybug's partner in fighting agains crime. Kitty brings the 'there's always time for a joke' vibe to the superhero work that Ladybug pretends not to appreciate.

—One night, Kitty is saved from an akumatized villain attack by a civilian named Marinette, and is heartstruck by her kindness and bravery. (Ladybug was busy that night, if you can believe it.)

—Kitty visits her at her balcony the next night, and Marinette tells her about feeling lonely at school. Kitty knows loneliness, and their night meetings at the balcony become a common ocurrence.

—They become friends. One night, Kitty flirts. Marinette responds (Because tonight she is just a normal girl with a normal life, why wouldn't she?) And Kitty well, she is kind. Her jokes aren't cruel, and she listens to her.

—And Kitty likes the way light hits her hair, and how clumsy and determined she is. Is this what having a friend is like? Wishing time would stop so she could keep lisening to Marinette?

—And ups! Kitty is getting close, and moving in circles around Marinette and Marinette feels safe. Kitty is kind of funny. And Marinette realizes she wants some funny in her life.

—Kitty leans. Marinette kisses her. She is not sure why she did that. Oh! Marinette retreats, but Paris at night makes Kitty's green eyes shine like stained glass. Wait, does she like girls? Does she like this girl?

—Kitty kisses her again, and Kitty is in heaven. Alone. Alone is a far away word. For a second the whole world feels like home. But stop.

—Kitty (or Adrien?) pulls away. 'Because this isn't right' 'Because you are just my fan, you don't know me.'

'Because Kitty isn't real... right?'

—Kitty leaves. Is not ethical, it can't be. They both agree. Just friends. 'Sometimes, I'll catch a glipse of you in the moonlight.'

—Marinette, see, now she was a problem. Ladybug can't be in love with her partner, no way. Is not right, is too distracting. And they have people to save!

—So Ladybug pretends everything is ok. 'Kitty, we have to be focused at all times' she tells her, trying to ignore how pretty her smile is.

—But duty is first, Paris is counting on them. Even if Kitty calling her 'My Lady' keeps her awake at night. 'All girls fantasize about their friends like that, right?'

—Adrien sits on his bed, and thinks about what would happen if he could be Kitty all the time. If Kitty is just a character, just a game, why did it felt so good, so real, to kiss Marinette?

—Marinette liked Kitty, and Kitty wasn't even trying. 'You are so beautiful, you know that, right?' She had said one night, laughing, after Kitty had make her dance. So spontaneous, she had blushed after.

—He was allowed to like that thought, right? Kitty was beautiful. He (she?) was beautiful. 'Am I, beautiful?' How much of Kitty is acting, and how much of her is true?

—Kitty doesn't visit often now. Marinette overthinks. 'She moved on, of course she did, why wouldn't she, I said it was ok, why doesn't it feel ok?'

—One day, Ladybug "accidentally" sees Kitty sneak into the Agreste Mansion. Oh! So she really meet someone else. 'She used to sneak into my house like that' And she meet no other than golden boy Adrien Agreste. Supermodel Adrien Agreste. Rich and Misterious Adrien Agreste.

—Of course, I mean, this Adrien guy is kinda cute. And Kitty is cute. Match made in heaven right? Is non of her buisness anyways.

—But Adrien is a little too misterious, right? He doesn't even go to school! And what was that Alya told her the other day? Oh! He is friends with Chloe?? Too suspicious...

—Is ok, she is just worried about Kitty. They are partners, gals, Marinette just wants to make sure Kitty's boy is the right one. 'What does she sees in him anyways?'

—Adrien meets Marinette one day, at a gala, she designed a hat for him! She is wonderful, and Adrien wants to say hi, but she keeps avoiding him. 'Is just the nerves for the event, she toootally didn't roll her eyes at me.'

—Adrien meets Nino. He is great. He tells him about school, and Adrien dreams about how cool it would be to go to school. He asks his dad, and he actually considers it?

Nino supports him, even Chloe vouches for him. Father says yes, he can go to school!.

—Adrien arrives at his first day, and oh! There is Marinette! How great is this!

—Marinette raises her head, and oh! There is Adrien Agreste! How great is this?

new au unlocked: trans adrien runaway au

context

SO, Marinette does Ballet, Adrien being afab did ballet instead of fencing before he ran away, They met when they were about 8/9. Adrien never went to school, because gabe is SO much worse in this au.

Adrien and marinette did have crushes on eachother, since they were both around 10 respectivelyt, so about 6 years. Marinett ebgan to question if it was worth it, a few weeks before they get their miraculous because it was os long and she thought it was unriciprocated

Adrien in literally head over heels in lvoe with marinette, and this means he doesnt have a crush on lb

When ladybug and cn appear, Marinette develops a crush on cn, and this leads her to try and help him when her earrings are with Alya (Alya ended up getting the earrings for a bit in origins, but all in all decided after being scarabella, that they should switch between the two, allowing her to take over for the entire origins bit, and then scarabella comes in every other week.)

Mari and cn end up together,after a couple months

Cn ends up running away, and lying about his age to get top surgery (DON T DO THIS KIDS???) and crashes at marinettes until he's better, however Marinette see's how scared he is to go back and decides. "Hey. ur my bf. stay here. I can make you clothes and a way to hide ur identity"

he aslos uses chat noir to get t

Kaboom

i douvt i'll expand apon this but if u have any questiosn send me an ask

[dorykinny]

I do think Adrien should have the ladybug miraculous, he’s already this rich white boy that can do whatever he wants, sure his father is a neglectful supervillain, but then wouldn’t it be better for paralells? He should have some responsibility since the show likes to state that the cat miraculous isnt important.

Adrien gets the ladybug miraculous so he has some responsibility for once, and marinette gets the cat miraculous because she’s already kind of a freak, if you double that i think she’d realise her mistakes, plus after all his fans fawning over a 13 year old boy i think he’d be able to say “m’lady please stop flirting with me” even if he does like lady noir.

[aloeverified]

thinking about trans man marinette. she's so girly in the show, with hed stereotypically feminine hobbies such as sewing and baking, her entire color pallete being pink and flowery and cutesy, and her entire storyline revolving around her love life and male counterpart.

how when people make a genderbend marinette, people find it distateful because they "change her personality too much" by removing his feminine personality and design traits and yet that's the same thing trans men hear in real life, that they're no longer loved because they're different now — for changing to become more themselves, for becoming men.
