#so paon's cloak fans out like an actual peacock tail

[toriistorii]

AU where Adrien didn't go to school (at least as early as he did in canon), so he never got the Black Cat miraculous, but he steals finds one anyway

The Peacock miraculous is still borked, but it's the use of amokization that's the issue, not transforming itself, so Adrien figures that he can still be a hero anyway (and hopes his dad doesn't figure out what happened in the meantime (a peacock hero is pretty obvious but that's what lying through your teeth is for))

What happens when he does eventually make an amok? Well, he doesn't start dying, but it's nothing good either :)

He still has a crush on Ladybug, but Paon isn't as forward as Chat Noir. Usually. Sometimes, he tries to impress her by peacocking showing off
