Soooo… more kwami swap designs for Adrien. Sorry he isn’t doing anything more interesting than just standing there… haha…

[redtippedfox]

What else are you supposed to do when the love of your life seduces you in another Miraculous?

[haliaiii]

expanding I guess? some more redesigns

I think for this au, nobody knows each others identities so it would make for some interesting character dynamics

[bunnybugblog]

Fox Noir and Bunny Bug but one is punk and the other emo

Let’s just say that I got.. inspired.. Fox Noir looks like the Cheshire Cat for some reason- or a pumpkin-

Ok but bunny bug looks SO good in dark red and darker shades MM

DTIYS I did on instagram for @/dani_smilek.

[maddascanbe-blog]

Here's a bunch of doodles I did for the redesigned heroes, plus one Zoé Lee-Bourgeois, in her Bee hoodie no less. I do have designs for tiny Vesperia that I might put out later. But for next time, I think it's time we bring in a villain? Maybe a certain fox?

Possibly How It Should Have Been

Gosh, I've just thought about it sometimes, as I'm largely trying to turn my creative focus onto something more enjoyable than ML (hence less writing for ML fics), but sometimes I just can't help but focus on it. Cause it's a great concept and it's butchered and that bothers me so much.

And there's SO MUCH that could've been done to improve it. Some of which could be easy tweaks. Some of which needs massive overhauling. Some of it is just picking a lane, staying in that lane, and you follow the road to progress.

It's a great concept with a LOT of possibilities and ways it could've been done. I've actually thought about possible ML Rewrites a few times, I even reached out to a friend to try and help develop a Rewrite that we could've collabed on cause I was struggling to much to decide, and we both just got stuck cause there's so many options for characters and what could possibly be done as we could see so many pros for each option.

And of course, part of the pondering that came to my mind was seeing promising improvement with kwami swaps.

Like, Marinette and Adrien may have developed better if they had each other's miraculous. Plagg could've been the ideal foil to Marinette as he's the opposite of her in every way, addressing her overworking herself, prioritizing others over herself, and caring so much about her responsibilities that it just weighs and stresses her out. And with Adrien and Tikki, she could've helped him develop as an actual, step up in responsibility, learn to take on duty, to care about others over himself. She also would've helped him get the plot rolling, as Adrien is a stagnant character but Tikki is not. She's going to get him involved into the Agreste plot whether he wants it or not, and in turn, he's going to get Tikki to learn to be more attentive and considerate of her holders cause things can go south for Adrien very quickly if she pushes too much.

Gosh, another great kwami swap that could've been done that could've improved a lot was switching up who are the leads. I always wondered if Tikki and Plagg TRULY would've picked Marinette and Adrien, also if they were even the right picks now that we know that Fu doesn't know everything and is running on limited knowledge. As far as we know, they ARE the wrong picks for these two. And considering there was an ep of Tikki and Plagg picking their own users, I now wonder if Alya and Nino should've been our actual leads.

How Alya was initially as Scarabella screams to me that it would've better served in the Origins as a starting hero. Alya also has promising potential arcs as a starting hero, especially as being a superhero is her living her dream:

There's the struggle of balancing her civilian and hero life, she can learn that the civilian life is just as important.

She can learn that being a hero isn't all glory and isn't always easy.

She can learn the importance of secrecy, and what happens if she exposes herself to the public or to a friend (probably Marinette).

And a lot of the lessons Tikki is involved with would make more sense with Alya, who does get tunnel vision and isn't good at listening to others and isn't so considerate and can be very pushy with her own agenda. Alya naturally aims for the leadership position and Tikki wants her Ladybugs to be leaders, so Tikki can help guide Alya to improve as a leader. Lastly, Alya will challenge Tikki on her call outs, which could at certain points help established that Tikki isn't always right and is open to learn and adapt too. And Alya could busy herself looking into HM, making her theories and being nosy about his identity, which Tikki would readily be apart of and encourage. Which Alya should've done in the show than recklessly trying to expose the heroes identity to the public and help HM win. Which, if Adrien wasn't a hero, maybe that should have been his role instead, which Gabriel could encourage and Adrien is even more excited cause he thinks his father is taking an interest in what he does which can be some later Adrien angst for you.

With Nino and Plagg, the BIGGEST plus is that it would actually give Nino SOMETHING outside Alya and Adrien. It would've prompt him to get more focus, and based on what's seen, he's 2nd to Marinette in having the most friends, meaning he can be more engaging and present with what happens to his classmates. Plagg also could bring some needed chaos to his life. You can even expand upon what's seen in Horrificatr where Nino can be controlling, strict, and harsh so Plagg can work on that. Nino does have some similarities to Marinette where he does care a lot for his friends and is hardworking, so there's something there to make Plagg a bit of a foil to him. To expand on Nino's role as Alya embraces being the big hero and savior, could even do the fandom popular idea of him getting Guardian training.

With those two taken, this nicely opens up others getting the Five.

Marinette can work with either Bee or Fox. If you want to work off Chloe vs Marinette, it works best if Marinette has the Bee. Though I think Pollen's personality should be overhauled, but if not, at least there's a perk that yes man Pollen going to force Marinette to take initiative and decide things for herself instead of seeking advise from her kwami. And with Fox, that can work off Marinette being a meddler, schemer, being creative, and her more inclined to work from the shadows. There could also be a fun twist to explore with Marinette not liking liars and she has a miraculous tied to deception, plus her and Trixx could've been an interesting pair to see interact, especially if working off what's seen in Sapotis where Trixx is very observant and manipulative, but also a bit of a chaotic gambler (from what I've seen, later seasons seem to ruin Trixx as a character). And of course, Marinette having Fox could work off her vs Lila, you could even dabble in her vs Felix.

Arguably, Chloe MAY grow as Alya and Nino would NOT have been so tolerant of her unlike Marinette and Adrien, so Chloe could've gotten the Bee and actually be a good hero and character for it. But that can also come down to preference and how you want Chloe to go.

Adrien could've gotten the Turtle, which I think could've been one of the best miraculous he could've gotten as he naturally likes to be a protector, and this miraculous works off that while also giving him protection. Wayzz also could've maybe addressed Adrien readily sacrificing himself, help him learn to be more cautious instead of rushing in, or at least think and be smart about how you go forward. There's even a possibility of Adrien having Turtle full time, as Nino could share his suspicions with Fu about Gabriel, so Wayzz could be there as a spy to check things out, which would have Adrien eventually get involved in his own plot, but still allow things to be at a slower pace. And as Wayzz, ideally, seems to be serious and dedicated but also playful and open minded, I think he would be very engaging with Adrien, which in turn could mean that when Adrien needs a call out, he would listen to what Wayzz had to say more (as most of the time Adrien ignores what Plagg says).

As for the leads, both would have an equal neutral involvement in the plot that can explain why things don't resolve quickly (looking at you Adrien who won't even ask questions about the suspicious book your father has). Alya would be a hero and lead for glory and self-righteousness, Nino would be to genuinely help others. Neither would have a super close tie to Gabriel, allowing him to sit under their noses for a while.

Also, gosh, you even could've had a lot of fun with color coded rivals/foils/personal antagonists for Alya and Nino.

If you really wanted to do Alya vs Lila, let Lila actually have the Fox or maybe she bought the Fox in Volpina, and this has Alya and Lila having the miraculous the other is color coded for. She could work off being a hero initially for the wrong reasons, just like Alya who starts for the glory too, as well as integrity vs deception.

Something could also be done between Nino vs Felix, with Nino really color coded for Peacock while Felix is color coded for Cat. Could play off both being ambitious to a fault and being selfish and nosy, but Nino cares more for others vs Felix is more exclusive.

And if expanding to others...

Of course could do Marinette vs Chloe if Marinette has the Bee, Chloe could have the Mouse, which could be funny to see Chloe deal with herself. That might humble her.

As for Adrien... could do him and Max being foils, work off Max getting Horse while largely wearing green, and I think Adrien is most color coded for Horse. Could work off both being perfectionist and could delve into the shared interest of gaming, with Max trying to bring out the competitiveness in Adrien. Could be thinking vs action.

Either way, ML is frustrating cause it's a show with potential and great concepts and it's irritating that it got butchered so. And the most frustrating thing is that there is just so many options to how it could've been done better. And kwami swap wise, these are my top two picks that would've been better.

Thank you for coming to my TED talks.

Adrien transforms for the first time. It's freeing. He's.. he's Kitsune. Scarabella leads him to where Mao is kicking her legs, spinning her baton with one hand. He absentmindedly copies her with his flute, and she laughs when she sees him doing so.

They work through beating the Akuma, and shes just thinking "is this what Adrien would be like without his dad?" (Because they're really close friends in this au, as they're 100000% platonic since it's an alyanette and adrino au, I'm not being sarcastic they're just best friends) And he notices how she tenses alot and she's not all that carefree (in this au marinette has her guard up around new people because of years and years of bullying. Mostly from Kim in this au, Chloe doesn't pick on her specifically or that much so she gets a redemption arc pretty early)

He puns. "For fox sake, this is a complicated plan."

She stares at him. Absolutely blank. "What the fuck"

He teaches her allll the jokes he can think of, and sniffles like a proud parent when she starts thinking of her own. She starts joking more, and it warms Scarabellas heart to see her "friend" become more sociable to more people than just her (she HATED other people as Mao, going so far as to hiss at paparazzi)

They become best friends inside and outside the mask.

And with that, we officially have the entire Main Five team of the Lady Luck AU! Adrichat is the only one of them completely unchanged from the main universe but he's here!

Also, because I can and since I did it on the last team photo, have everyone's heights in my AU:

Chloé - 172 cm/5'8"

Adrien - 181 cm/5'11"

Mari - 163 cm/5'4"

Sabrina - 168cm/5'6"

Mylene - 152cm/5'

[ninadove]

Wow, so many WIPs to choose from... How about "Kill the lights"?

Excellent choice (I should really make more progress on this one)! 🧡

This story takes place in the universe where Scarabella and Kitty Noire are the main holders! There’s some change to the villains’ team, too: in this world, Hawkmoth’s sidekick is an annoyingly clever Fox Holder named Mirzam.

In their fight against this new threat, our heroines get some help from Sirius, the new holder of the Dog Miraculous, who sees right through the illusions and seems very intent on taking their enemy down. But can he really be trusted…?

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

[azuriteartist]

Meet Faux Noir!

FoxCat!Adrien

General musings beneath the cut :)

This is the best artwork I've ever done, for better and worse.

The weapon he's holding is the fox flute, his staff is offscreen somewhere because drawing it felt mildly redundant.

I like his arm fox tails. But don't ask me about his hair /lh. It was meant to sorta swoop up and over, with the ends of that dyed orange, but I do not have the skill, shading, or brushes to achieve that, so normal chat noir hair it is!

It's traced from a 3d shot of him from the show (And you can probably tell which let's be real), which is pretty normal for my art now. It's SO much nicer to not have to worry about anatomy and it turns headaches into colouring within the lines.

I have a story that's basically a rewrite of Miraculous Ladybug, with more gayness and headcannons, and Feu Rouge and Scarlet Bug make an appearance.

Also, characters are 18+

Link to story if you want to read it!

Also, in case you guys couldn't tell: Feu Rouge is Adrien with Trixx/Fox Miraculous Scarlet Bug is Nathaniel with Tikki/Ladybug Miraculous

[miraculouswolf99]

Do you think Nathaniel would make a good fox hero? With his imagination and creative mind, he would make unbelievable illusions

Do you think Adrien would make a good tiger hero? Like Juleka in canon, Adrien learns to find his voice

I do think that Nathanial would make a good holder of the fox miraculous. I can also say the same about Marc since they are both creative and imaginative. But, Nathaniel is an actual artist, so he would probably have an easier time creating illusions.

Plus, while I do like Alya as Rena Rouge, I never did think that she was a good match for the fox miraculous. Alya has always been more of a headstrong and straightforward person. So, she does not strike me as the type of person who would want to stand back and use tricky illusions. I think she would fit more with the bee miraculous.

Given his shy nature, Nathaniel would feel more comfortable hanging back during fights. It would allow him the time to be able to come up with more tricky illusions that would make it easier to trick the akuma.

As for Adrien with the tiger, I can also see how that would work. He already tends to jump in without much planning, so having a super-powerful punch would only add more to that. Plus, as you said, he would be like Juleka with how having such a powerful attack would help him become more bold in his everyday life. He would start standing up for himself more against those like his father, Chloe, and Lila.
