I need to see Adrien with the Fox Miraculous so bad. I just think it would be interesting to see the master of pretending with the power to create illusions. Maybe even have a little fun with it. Idk maybe Alya has to leave the city for a while and leaves Marinette with the necklace. But then something happens and Ladybug needs someone who can create an illusion for her and Alya is not there and she is panicking, and all her friends already have a Miraculous and she needs someone she can trust, especially with the fox— and then she’s like hey. I have a boyfriend. A very brave and very smart boyfriend. And maybe giving him a Miraculous didn’t work out before but the third times the charm right?? obviously Felix pretending to be Adrien is no longer a problem and she probably thinks she’s less blinded by her love now that they’re in a relationship (wrong). So she goes to Adrien, reluctant but also a little excited, and she swings through his window JUST as he’s about to transform into Chat Noir. She gives him the necklace and he’s like ummmmm Ladybug I don’t think that’s a good idea. And she’s like NO it’s a PERFECT idea you’re PERFECT for this and he tries to deflect so HARD because he knows how badly this could end and if he learned one thing from fighting Desperada it’s that Chat Noir might be needed (maybe he even suggests Ladybug offer the Fox to Marinette instead and she has to make up a stupid excuse herself) but she insists and just LEAVES him with the necklace and he sighs because his partner is so. stubborn. Adrien has no choice but to use the necklace because he can’t let Ladybug down. Maybe he unifies the Miraculi and becomes a black fox, maybe he switches between the fox and the cat during the battle, either way he creates an illusion of Chat Noir and Adrifox interacting so that no one suspects a thing. You could even throw in Ladybug awkwardly flirting with Adrien mid-battle before she realises HE DOESN’T KNOW SHE’S MARINETTE and Adrien is very confused. The last time his lady acted like this was when Mister Bug was around.

It’s all a huge mess but he manages to make it work and returns the Miraculous to a flustered but happy Ladybug who announces that she might keep him in mind as a backup holder should one of the permanent holders be unavailable at some point and Adrien is like oh :)) great :))) and lets out the biggest sigh ever as she swings away. Next time he sees Alya I’m school she’s like soooo I heard Ladybug tried to replace me with a blond pretty boy ;)) and Marinette chokes on her drink and Adrien buries his head in his hands. The next time Ladybug seeks him out he fakes a sudden and terrible illness so he doesn’t have to go through this again

For centuries, clogs were the most common shoe for peasants in many parts of Europe and some other parts of the world. Clogs are shoes made of one single piece of wood that protects the foot from humidity outside, making them good for working in the fields or walking through mud or snow.

Here in Catalonia, the most common shoes were usually espadrilles (espardenyes), but wooden clogs (esclops) were also very common in winter. Catalan clogs were made of pine tree wood or poplar wood, which was then smoked to protect the wood. There were artisans who specialized in making them, but ordinary farmer families in the countryside would also make their own. People stopped using clogs around the 1950s, when mass produced rubber rainboots/Wellingtons arrived. Then, clog makers had to close their shops, and most of them moved to work in factories or in building work.

Nowadays, there are very few clog makers in Catalonia. Until a few years ago, the person in Catalonia whose job was making clogs was Jordi Coll, who died in 2009. He had been a clog maker in his youth until clog shops closed, but he started again in his old age. Now, there is another one: the man in the photos included in this post is Josep Pratdesaba, who grew up in a farmhouse in Taradell (Central Catalonia). He explains that all the family used to meet every evening around the fireplace in the kitchen, where each person would do the personal work they had to do, including making clogs. Now, he makes clogs in his free time and goes to fairs and festivals to make them and talk about it to the public, where elderly people explain the anecdotes of when they used to wear them and the young children watch with amazement how he turns a log into a shoe.
