Here we have Refrain! (Snake!Nino) from the Chloe Goes back in time AU. He's the original Loser(/aff) and the heart of this team of people who are not the best at working together (To put it mildly)

In place of the Lyre he has that Tablet, which has it's own brand of Miraculous(TM) composition software on it. He may not be able to pluck strings, but he can weave notes like a pro.

His overall design is supposed to represent his 'normal guy thrown into this mess' vibe. It's relaxed, almost civilian. Those pockets contain all sorts of every day odds and ends. Nothing magical like a lucky charm, but occasionally something useful.

Comission by @catmelot who also did Purrge and will be doing both Testudine and Outfox shortly.

Part 2 of the life-swap series! Oddly enough when I asked those close to me, none of them anticipated that I'd swap Chloe and Luka. Honestly it made more sense to me? Both have sisters, have at least one obscenely rich parent, and have crushed on the two leads?

Now onto the plot-

After finding out about the twins Jagged decided to battle for custody. He managed to get full custody of Luka, but not Juleka, and out of spit decided to cut the twins off from each other, causing Anarka to move to the the US. But despite having a young son now, this didn't stop Jagged from touring, often leaving Luka behind in Paris to be looked after by whoever was available. Even when he was in Paris he often avoided Luka, instead leaving Penny to watch him.

Luka grew up bitter at his fathers lack of care for him, and took it out on everyone around him. Mostly the staff of both Le Grande Pari, where he lives, as well as whatever caregiver his father/Penny had hired. When he went to school, he immediately began taking his anger out on everyone there too. Once Adrien's mom passed he took a special hatred to the blonde, in some ways seeing himself in Adrien. Both now children of single fathers, but Gabriel is in his sons life (whether that's good or bad doesn't matter to Luka).

And Luka, being an empath knows exactly how to get under ones skin. Because even if you don't show your emotions outwardly, he still can tell when he's struck gold. The only person he doesn't hate is Marinette, his childhood friend and the only person unaware of his attitude.

And yes, we are going for Cannon Chloe swap here, so no redemption for Luka. Sad. I'll draw Akuma-Viperion later.

Onto Chloe, once Andre found out about Audrey's infidelity he gave her two options. The first, he expose her and her career be permanently marred. Or she give him full custody of both Chloe and Zoe and the could divorce peacefully. Chloe hasn't seen her mom since she was 3 and quite frankly had no interest in her. Zoe only being a half sister to Chloe is a carefully guarded secret, one that Zoe thinks even Chloe doesn't know.

Chloe, not wanting to emulate her mother grew up with a very different mindset. Instead being taught that being both too aggressive and a pushover will lead to a mess. So she instead learns to govern her hive with a firm but steady hand. The staff of Le Grand Paris greatly respect her, and she is often the one sent to head off a Luka temper tantrum, as the only person unimpressed by both him and his father. She's more of an Clara Nightingale fan anyways.

She fast tracked her way through school, and decided to take Highschool online as to give herself more time to work both at the hotel and at her event planning company. As Queen Bee, she is fierce but kind. The favorite of the secondary heroes, since she is not only efficient at stopping the akuma, but will stick around to comfort and reassure both the victim and the civilians who were caught in the attack.

Due to her calm voice and good advice, Ladybug and Chat Noir have turned to her many times for comfort on both the chaos hero life and civilian troubles. She's always willing to listen when they need her. As such Hawkmoth sees her as the most beneficial to target. Only he seems scarred to akumatize her for some reason...

Somethings that frusterates me about Luka....

like...first I need to establish I DO like Luka. He is objectively great. There is a good reason he turned Marinette's compass after all. I can 100 oercent get why people ship lukanette. (I think people need to stop putting adrien down when shipping them but that's a different topic altogether.

The weirdness that he was definitly julieka's older brother but then got weirdly retconned to be the same age and her twin js still weird when he's suppoused to give off slightly older boy mature energy......like he's still great but I'm suddenly more confused why the show puts so much weight in Luke's words when he IS THE SAME AGE as everyone else.

Luka is great. He's mature. Tends to be very patient with marinette and is able to be honest about his feelings without putting oressure in her...and he does support her in her crushes.

And dude has good observation skills as the snake. I still find it really funny that luka is actually one of the people ADRIEN/CHAT chose to be a hero because mari's adrien blinders were on. And majes me trust luka more cuz as much as people act like Adrien is blind....he's got pretty good instincts for people.

I kindof wish the show would allow Luka to be angry at his dad or others more often....like....dude is a teen and apparently the same age...it's not like mari broke up with him because she didn't like luka(even if everyone ekse but luka thought it was due to lingering feelings for adrien).

Dude should be allowed to be upset at his crush not liking him back especially when mari(I love you but mari WHY!?) CAN be pretty insensative.

Like....a lot of people see Luka as perfect for Marinette.....after all he's not pushy. He's cute. Creatuve/talented. Has a passion. He's good at communicating and patient no matter how bad marinette is at communicating. He puts mari at ease and she has been honest with Luka in a way sge isn't with Adrien....she lets herself rely on luka. And mari tends to get frazzled so Luka soothing her IS important....and we HAVE seen mari IS attracted to Luka. She was willing to kiss him if a akuma hadn't interrupted and she didn't want to lie to Luka. There is DEFINITLY something there.

But I actuactually think what draws everyone to luka(his patience and understanding and not pushing his feelings on mari)....could actually be a issue. Mostly because it actually ENABLES one of mari's most consistent flaws. Mari tends to hate being vulnerable and committing when her emotions are involved.

While she never WANTS to be insensative about other's feelings.....Mari can and WILL put her emotional comfort over other people even if she knows its probably a dick movement. Mari is REALLY bad at putting herself in other people's shoes without her own understandable teenage bias toward her own feelings KICKING doors down.

Luka being so understanding actually let's her put considering his feelings to the side. Mari let Luka driver her to the plane for the newyork trip while yapping about Adrien that entire time to Luka despite knowing Luka likes her while her secert motive wa to go on the trip with Adrien cuz she didn't want Adrien alone with lila. Mari despite having vibes with Luka and being taught guitar separated herself from Luka and then brought up the idea if adrien playing with jagged stone...even asking Luka for his guitar and ignoring how even Adrien pointed out Adrien wasn't a guitar player.

Mari would talk to Luka about her struggles with telling Adrien her feelings despite KNOWING Luka likes her. Luka was even understanding about her ditching the dates and felt he was in the wrong about pressing for answers and apologized afterwards just fir her to freak up with him....Luka was still clearly interested abd brought up if she ever wanted to try again...he is there....but dude was so sweet about the break up and yet Mari was the one avoiding him and put julieka in a tight spot cuz Mari asked her to disinvited Luka from his own birthday party so Mari could avoid him despite Luka being the chillist guy ever!

As much as I get people get annoyed at Adrien/chat and kagami for how strait forward they are about their feelings...

Honestky they show a different type of maturity because they know you can't just wait to get what you want. You have speak up and show you want it AND speak up if you feel a certain behaviour isn't okay because kagami and Adrien know they have to speak up for their own treatment and feelings. It can be seen as pushy....but it can also show how much they want sonething or like someone and how they want those feelings acknowledged.

Luka's patience and wanting mari to go at her own pace is wonderful....but it enables mari to NOT make decisions and forget to consider luk's feelings and opinions more. As much as luka likes her....from her view he doesn't like her enough to get upset at her...or to try to fight fir her.... or fight for his feelings to be noticed and treated properly.

I HONESTLY feel like Luka definitly had a real chance to woo Marinette. He turned her compass, she could talk to him...the way she looked at him during wish maker?!

Was I glad luka went to check on adrien as well? Yes. Bjt I was also screaming internally because there was CLEAR signs mari liked luka that could grow if he tried to focus on them! I know luka ACTUALLY is that good of a guy and wants mari to be happy so tries to help her with Adrien on multiple occasions..

...but I kept thinking of how everyone thought Mari was being mature when she pushed adrien and Kagami together....when in reality it was mari being immature...trying to push adrien and kagami together to avoid being honest about her feelings and to avoid being vulnerable ...like a fox and the grapes.

Kagami had even said she wanted mari to be honest and not give up for kagami's sake because they could be friends and like the same guy. Heck, kagami had said she didn't even care about ice cream, and both adrien and jagami just wanted to hang with mari as friends. Mari didn't HAVE to push them together and avoid them....and mari backtracking and stealing kagami away was dye to her lack of honesty with herself and her insecurity.

So Luke's patience while seeming more mature also comes off as someone who might think letting go is the best way to show love instead of hiw we know poo diwn he wanted to fight fir the truth about his dad.

Luka nkt setting u proper boundaries means mari has a tendency to abuse them even if I understand luka is akso her friend and friends listen and help.

But something that bothers me is luka seems all wise, but dude definitely still has a mari bias people don't bring up. Like....I get after finding out mari is LB and Chat is Adrien that he'd want to support mari's crush because he knkws its requited.....heck luka can see chat can bring out the best in mari and make mari comfortable to be herself....so I see why he'd ship it.

But it never occurs to Luka to consider that ladybug is closer to chat, more comfortable but DOESNT seem romantically into chat? Heck, we know when msri finds out his identity, she is weirded out and didn't seem like she was still in love with him til luka directed her to be more chill and positive about it. It doesn't occur to luka that mari would be LESS interested in adrien if she found out he was chat or if she got more comfortable with him?!

Luka literally knew their identities and yet when Mari brought up her plan to trick chat out of his identity by pretending like she changed her mind so luka could hear it and bring it to su-han.

I mean....luka did bring up why not just be honest with chat....but he didnt fight mari on it when she dismissed the idea. And mire luka already knew the identity.....luka could have been honest he knew before hand or could have pretended to press the button or go back in time once abd pretend he went through the plan and guve Suhan the identity.

heck, luka knew the identities but also how firm mari was about this being a safety issue and ALSO luka knows how weird and unable to think strait around Adrien mari tends to get.....luka should have KNOWN mari wouldn't be able to give the signal to go back after finding out dye to shock.....and yet he let mari find out. He wasn't willing to push for her to be honest with chat about identities enough and yet he ignored her worries about safety becayse identity dazed marinette didnt give the signal so he assumed she'd want to know.....ge supports it cuz he wants her yo be Hallyday probably...

But either he let her find out on purpose because he put her feelings over safty or he put it on her to drcjded despite knowing mari can't think clearly around adrien kr surprises....and ge never once considers how fucked up it is tgat nari sas willing to trick chat out of his identity and was willing to feed chst what he wanted to hear?

Everyone focuses on mari's lie or the stupid reveal from gabe fjnding out in the dumbest way possible....but no one really consuders the implications everything has on kuka abd his decision making skills.

And despite luka having the context that the reveal caused problems where he might undergrad WHY cuz ge knows who they are.....he still ends up trying to put them together even though mari's main reason to breaking up with Luka was a lying issue and a stress issue due to being too busy!

Listen...I adore the guy!

But I got GENUINELY angry at him because of how he views adrien and mari when he was helping in that date at the musuem.

The dude brought up the jdea that adrien is so loved that adrien can't differentiate or decided on loves! people keep treating adrien like adrien is dumb, naive, a damsel and dense......but the fact js adrien is actually PRETTY emotionally self aware. Adrien knows his feelings toward ladybug....he has flirted and properly confessed and he openly admires marinette and he k even if people tend to ignore it he DID feel so.ething for Kagami.

But adrien KNOWS how to differentiate his feelings! He was WAY more strait forward than marinette is! Luka was acting like adrien is so loved but chloe clearly doesn't romantically like adrien....she just doesn't want to lose him. Lila just wants the fame adrien provides. And hjs dad, nathalie and plagg aren't really good at atraitfjrwardly showing love! And adrien DEFINITLY knows the difference in a fan's love!

Heck even with kagami he knew he couldn't force it jf he wasn't ready back in frozer! Buy that akso meant (even if mari pushed them together too soon) when he dud feel something fkr kagami it was real! His main issue was loosening up to kagami becayse he wasn't used to fully opening up.

But the implication mari's love was this pure amazing love from luka?! Like...I love mari and don't want to invalidate her feelings but her feelings echo a celebrity crush through almost all of the seasons!

And honestly mari is BAD at showing her feelings! Luka was trying yo act like Adrien was dense or didn't understand his own feelings even though mari will strait up run away?! Say the exact opposite of how she feels to adrien VERY eloquently?! Adrien has ASKED her how she feels or even bring up opportunities to be a alone abd nari will DENY it and back out almost everytime!?

Mari os the one who has literally been loved by so many people! Nino had a crush, her parents love her, grandpa abd grandma and uncle loves her. the class admires her, nate had a crush, luka had a crush. Chat had a crush. Tikki adores her openly! Jagged stone is her fan! Zoey has a crush! Abd heck as ladybug chloe felt something! Heck adrien has flirted with civilian mari before as just adrien and always compliments her!

And yet luka acts like ADRIEN is the one who diesnt understand his own feelings when he had vern consistent in loving a version of her he talks with and bonds more often who shows he'd good AND NEGATIVE sides to him abd he still loved her? The only thing standing in the way of adrien acknowkedging a crush on mari was their first poor meeting. The fact her was crushing on a version of her that could be more comfjrtabke around him already and brcayse nari had SAID she wasn't interested in him before!?

Lula hhst acknowledge mari is bad at feelings abd why are you helping adruenette get together when you know exactly the issues that could pop up with identities or lying and how much stress mari is under?

Why does it never occurs to luka to doubt mari's feelings for adrien after finding out she is KB and he is chat?!

I wouldn't have a issue becahse ufs at least consustant with him having a bias toward marinette and bejng too patient and understanding and too go with the flow! But the show tends to treat him as some wise man we should trust cerbatum rather than a kid their age which can be WRONG!

They don't even properly adress his thought process of keeping that he knows the identities from mari/LB all that time! They make it sort of a betrayal but it felt half asked! Like is the issue he listened to how LB didn't want him to know so he didn't want to stress her out by admitting he knew?

Even though he knew for a LONG time and it never became a issue for a long time? Is the issue he could have been honest so they could have dated?

I mean MAYBE it could have stopped the felix issue in hindsite. Or it could echo fu who knew....bht arguably the way they got rid or luka didn't actually connect the issue with his consistent trait of not pushing enough when it comes to himself and what he knows...or how that could parallel aspects with marinette.

Like...is luke ACTUALLY wrong? Or is it just bad luck that his choices didn't work out? Loke they try to put alua in the wrong fkr telling mino but of she didn't she would have been crushed by the bad guys! Were the main issue is mari kept using all the heros anyways and the issue was mari doubting her trust and trying to micromanage instead of actually trusting always judgment which gave felix the chance to snatch everything.

My point is why do people never adress or point out how hos positives can be a weakness under a different light nut also the weirdness in how the show uses luka narratively....like I get him having a long fuse before snapping being a trait but still!

Tiger!Chloe (Thematic & Visual Language)

I finally figured out why I like Chloe with the Tiger Miraculous so much as a concept, beyond the rule of cool angle.

See, there were some design elements in making Chloe Queen Bee that mattered in serving to set her up as a distaff counterpart to Marinette. One who could be her rival, her ally, her opposite and equal.

The main one being that she shared a tool type with Ladybug. Both had a toy that could be used as a whip, bind and means of travel. The Tigers Bola has the same visual benefit, while adding a sub textual layer that Chloe is more offence oriented.

The other is more blunt but still very present, namely there's the classic stripes contrasting spots angle, which also came with the Bee & is present with the tiger.

But, there's an added boon to the tiger too!

Namely, it gives Chloe similar coding to Adrien! After all, Tiger & Cat are both felines, both their powers are primarily released via hand strikes. Both are violent and destructive powers. It shows how the both in many ways come from a similar place, are made of similar stuff but are at the same time, very different.

Basically, it doubles the visual themes and story telling one can do.

I dunno, I just think that its neat.

Rachel amber is so 'cant catch me now' coded and I really can explain it.

[coppereko]

i had a cool idea

what if instead of adding new heroes after season 2 its just the main 5 being the main characters and the zodiac miraculouses are just backup for them + they can unify it

this is for people who think the other heroes just arent necessary LOL

edit : plot wise, I feel like Bunnix and Viperion were pretty neccessary so I guess you're free to add them probs

[maddascanbe-blog]

Decided to do some Kwami swaps, and Cani-girl for good measure. Marinette's Cross-fox design was partially inspired by the Cheshire Au- by RozonRozark. Champion's name was inspired by @zoe-oneesama, who is probably my biggest inspiration for miraculous designs. Cani-girl I based on my little bunnix redesign, only thing of note was a put the ball on the hood and a dog tag on the choker. And Collette, Snake-Lila who I did in a warmup set of kwami swaps ages ago and never quite forgot. She was my favorite out of those and the golden scales inspired Life-swap Luka's design

Bonus-
