Emilie Agreste as Hera, the Peacock holder.

I have been very inspired the last little bit by @bigfatbreak ‘s amazing AUs, aka Feralnette and Dad Villain. This specific piece is based off this piece of hers from the Dad Villain AU as a “what if we got to see Emilie transformed”?

As pretty as Emilie is in dresses, I think she could rock a power suit as her transformed self. For people who don’t know, Hera is the Greek goddess of women and family, and one of her main symbols is a peacock. Alts under the keep reading ^^

For alternative ideas, I think focusing on flowing, swishy clothes would be really pretty. Incorporating some purple might tie her in with her husband.

I hope you all like! tumblr kinda ate the quality of these pics but I hope not too much detail is lost <333

Émilie Agreste purposefully giving Adrien an allergy to feathers to make sure her son would never be able to use the peacock miraculous in the future

No one asked for this but I wanted to draw what Emilie might have looked like with the peacock miraculous. I made her color scheme a lot less dark because she’s not a villain or anti hero and her transformation wasn’t used for fighting so I took the liberty of making it more fashionable than practical.

They're lovers, they're exes, they're mothers of a child, and she can't let go of her.

She's as haunted as anyone who loved her...

Do click the read more xD

Okay so, i never shared my peacock!Emilie but some context: I feel like she's very sure of herself so the peacock transformation is not different from her actual image, she's content with who she is, she has a sparkly beautiful dress because she's a sparkly beautiful wife and actress... except for the fact that she is not a mother and so the miraculous gives her glow and radiance pregnant women are usually described to have. The eternal happiness of a woman she only dreamed of being

And well, you guys know my gal Nathalie, mourning, mothering, dying ;)

I am going crazy for this Le Paon design. I thought I’d make her look all sickly and mentally ill because of the broken miraculous but this is also heavily inspired by by that one au (by @mirrorroad ) where emilie is a horror actress and I literally lost my mind.

So she’s a little deranged but that’s what we love about her.

Some sketches I've made for the (Fixed) Peacock AU! They're meant to be slightly aged up. I also gave Adrien a little brother (for plot reasons but also I love him)

[margarethelstone-2]

so i've been looking for drawing inspiration lately and since met gala is happening, @anna-scribbles keeps filling my dashboard with emily agreste content AND zendaya decided to choose this year to wear a peacock inspired dress, i was left with no choice.

dear anna, i hope you enjoy this.

the rest of you pray that i get to finish this one.

So, it was pretty much confirmed in "Representation" that Adrien is a Senti-being, right?

And do you all remember this scene from "Evolution"?

Gabriel is handing over the Peacock Miraculous to Emilie in a suspiciously romantic environment on a picnic date at the Agreste mansion.

I..I think this was the night, guys...

THE NIGHT WHEN THEY "CREATED" ADRIEN! 😱

OK I'm out, bye

magic always comes with a price

I am unreasonably upset about the fact that I've been forced to accept that Gabriel was a Gerald.

For context, in An Inspector Calls, Gerald Croft is engaged to Sheila Birling when he meets a homeless, struggling Eva Smith in a bar, and essentially in return for a home and money he shows her affection (ahem), then gets rid of her once he no longer has a use for her. Now, obviously this isn't a direct translation, but the essentials are - a Gerald is a character who uses another character, in return for something they need, usually masking the fact that they're using them with affection and love.

And against my will I've had to accept that this is exactly what Gabriel does to Nathalie.

Did I want to think he had potential to be better? Did I think he genuinely cared for Nathalie?? Hell, did I just really really want somebody to care about Nathalie???

Probably all of the above but the point is: he's Gerald. And I cannot - I literally can't unsee it now. Their whole dynamic in S3 is like “oh boohoo I'm sorry I wish you didn't have to use the peacock Miraculous and kill yourself over it but uh I need to use your powers” “yeah no that's fine I'm all good”. Which, given the "Gerald" theorem, I'm assuming leads to the fact that what Nathalie needed, above all, was someone to care about her - and Gabriel came along, as Sheila Birling puts it, "like a fairytale prince", and was so caring and gentle and... Yeah. She fell for him. And. Yeah he genuinely did seem to care like twice. But so did Gerald. Gerald actually admits that he did care for Eva, just not the way that she cared for him, and, uh, not enough to not just dispose of her. So he discards her anyway when she stops being useful.

Leading me neatly to my point.

He starts using the peacock Miraculous the second it's fixed, the slimy bastard, HOWEVER. It runs way deeper than that. Assuming I'm right (which I almost DEFINITELY am), then Gabriel only needed Nathalie while she was useful. She didn't stop being useful in season three - she's still scheming for him, helping him with plan after plan. It's only partway through season 5 that she officially servers ties with him, and starts to actively hinder him.

Nathalie stops being useful when she fails as Safari. And I reckon that's when Gabriel and Tomoe decided she had to go.

(It's painfully, I-was-ugly-crying-over-it obvious in Conformation that Gabriel is fully prepared to let Nathalie die - in the original storyboard, her alliance was encouraging her to sleep, and he's very obviously prepared for this moment - I've made a separate post about it that I'll link if I can find it. However, onto the next bit)

With all of this, there's one thing that sticks out to me - Nathalie didn't see any of it until it was already too late. There could be many reasons for this. But you know who would have seen through it? Whose parents were all loving and perfect until she married the wrong man? Emilie. Emilie, who left behind those videos, which on the surface look innocent, but when you look deeper look like a (love confession???????) AHEM a warning. I reckon Emilie noticed what was going on and realised that Nathalie wouldn't see through Gabriel, so she left those videos addressed to Nathalie (not Gabriel, which surely they should have been - they were about him, after all - unless they were there...) as a warning. I don't think the videos were supposed to be about helping Gabriel, I think Emilie was warning Nathalie to get the fuck out of that house, and to take Adrien with her. Because Emilie knew it'd end like this.

Yes I'm still mad ok give me a break.
