It’s probably pretty obvious by now, but this will be a Chloe-demption Miraculous story. I don’t blame people who don’t really like that or her in general, but that’s the story you’re gonna get here. (Granted, this Chloe will be a bit easier to make a better person than the original, for reasons I’ll go over soon.)
Chloe Bourgeois seems like the typical rich girl: self-centered, superficial, vain, spoiled, not very good at listening to others, melodramatic, mostly mean to other people, and used to getting what she wants.
That being said, there’s a bit more to her than that. Her lack of self control and immaturity is mainly the result of having a father who would hand her whatever she wanted to keep her busy. Similarly, her mother is only interested in the “exceptional”, so Chloe often strives to be more like her. The fact that neither parent really tried to raise her is why she’s so infantile and prone to ridiculing others to feel better about herself.
A different side of Chloe tends to come out around her loved ones. She’s somewhat overbearing and clingy, but will shower those close to her (especially family) in gifts, pet names, and affection. Compared to OG Chloe, (and most other fan made takes on her), she’s a lot softer and more naive (dare I say a little cute). Every once in a while she lets the confident facade drop, becoming quieter and being genuine about how she feels.
Marinette: As I’ve mentioned in the Marinette MTS post, Chloe and Marinette have a friends-to-enemies storyline in the first season. Basically, Chloe’s constant need for attention and favors was too emotionally draining for Marinette, so she broke things off between them, which Chloe does not take well. At all. After spending the larger part of season two trying to antagonize her, Chloe finally understands why Marinette left and leaves her alone. Things are still pretty tense between them, but they can exist in the same room without blowing up (and if Chloe sometimes still misses her ex-best friend? Well she doesn’t! Don’t be ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!!!)
Adrien: Chloe and Adrien are also childhood friends, (only they’ve known each other practically since birth while Marinette and Chloe met in their early school years) with Chloe actually being the one to introduce the two. At first, Chloe’s glad that her precious “Mari-roon” and “Adrikins” are getting along; when he decides to keep being Marinette’s friend after she stops hanging out with Chloe, she’s a little less enthused. Adrien also plays a more active role in helping Chloe become a better person, as he’s one of the people with the most knowledge of why she is the way that she is, as well as her better qualities (that and Chloe is determined not to lose him like she lost Marinette, even if she isn’t consciously aware of this yet). It also probably goes without saying that her feelings for Adrien aren’t ever really romantic like in the OG show.
Zoe: Chloe adores her darling baby sister, and tends to bring her wherever she goes. She initially tries to help her younger sister understand how the world issupposed” to work, but when that backfires (due to that pesky traitor Dupain-Cheng and her new friends) she has to remain content with simply showing Zoe off and doing what she can to help her sister succeed in her ambitions. (Due to being more of a people and family pleaser, Zoe doesn’t really do much in Chloe’s redemption, but she is one of the characters who can occasionally get her to play nice.)
Alya: These two don’t really know each other very well at first. To Chloe, Alya’s just the blogger girl who doesn’t properly appreciate the perfect Ladybug! When they interact more often due to being in the same class, things aren’t much better, seeing as their opposite ideals and personalities clash (hardworking vs lazy, integrity vs self-indulgence, etc). They do have to team up against a common enemy though (that being Lila), as well as share the struggles of being the only two superheroes with public identities. By the end of season two, Chloe and Alya become hero partners. (Despite sometimes being annoyed at what a “goody two shoes” Rena can be, Queen Bee can admit that she’s pretty smart, and secretly considers her to be a better hero than she is.)
Other key dynamics include: her parents, Ladybug (and Chat Noir to an extent), Kim, and Sabrina.
A lot of Chloe’s development is about learning to care about others and not resort to making other people’s lives more difficult just because she’s unhappy about something. This is mainly through how she interacts with acquaintances (not being as insulting or harming the rest of the class through her schemes) and her friends (learning how to be a good friend is a major part of her character arc). Another aspect of this how she matures.
MTS Chloe’s stunted growth is generally attributed to the lack of involvement that both parents have had throughout her childhood. While she doesn’t completely grow up (which makes sense, seeing as she is still very much a child), she does learn to occasionally think things through beyond the obvious and take certain issues more seriously.
Her familial relationships also factor into this development. She both grows in relation to her family (trying to be a good big sister for Zoe and eventually realizing that Audrey is a terrible mother/person and standing up to her), and inspiring them to change as well (seeing Chloe work to improve herself is one of the motivations for Zoe wanting to be more honest with others, Andre also acknowledges that he’s been a selfish and irresponsible father and works to become a better parent for Chloe and Zoe).
Alright, that’s the general rundown for Chloe. The more whimsical vibes that she has might be a bit disappointing for people who prefer a tougher, sassier mean girl type of Chloe, but hopefully she’s still likable in her own regard.
Up next will be Alya (who will also have an akuma design posted around the same time I have her character notes ready, so keep your eyes peeled if that kinda thing interests you)
Casually drops this with no explanation
In regards of the Trump government scraping all trans inclusion in its queer information portion of its websites I have made this thing. Spread the word. Don't let them pretend we never existed.
P.S: Don't like! Reblog! <3
EDIT: Well this got a lot of attention! I got a few users asking to print or repost my art and I am unimaginably grateful to everyone's interest, especially since it's a really simple drawing I made on a whim haha! Anyone who is looking to print these out to hang or hand out or repost on another platform is free to do so, although I ask you to credit me and let people know it's from my Tumblr profile! If anyone wishes to do anything else with my art or post and wants to clarify what I consent to then they can message me privately and I'll explain! <333 all my love to my queer siblings
how much wood could a wood chipper chip, if a wood chipper could chip wood? (This is very relevant to the content of your blog and your miraculous character reboot, trust trust)
@aeonianlunartine get your slipshod poppycock outta here
What she says: “I’m fine.”
What she means: There is a whole subsection of the Miraculous Ladybug fandom who thinks one character having to sit by herself in the back of the class for a single episode (literally gets her seat back by the end) is worse than another character getting abused by his dad for five seasons.
So, given the fact you've included a firefly and greyhound miraculous, does that mean you'll be removing the idea of the miraculous being tied to a specific region or culture (which personally I think is for the best)?
First of all, thank you for the ask! It means a lot to me that someone wants to know about this story!
I should probably clear one thing up: there isn’t a greyhound miraculous. It’s still the dog miraculous, only with more range in costume colors (depending on the breed the holder wants to represent) and a different power (switched from Fetch to a healing ability known as Primary Care) because it fit better with both of Felix and Barkk’s respective characters/storylines. I wasn’t exactly clear with the wording on the original post though, so I understand the confusion.
As for the concept of regional Kwami, they were sorted and placed in Miracle Boxes all around the world by the Guardians. These boxes vary in number and status of Kwami depending on the region (a heavily populated area with a more volatile history will likely get a larger Miracle Box than a sparsely populated, predominantly peaceful region).
In addition, the strongest box on a given continent is known as a Continental Miracle Box (an obvious name, I know). A majority of the Kwami that appear in MTS (barring the world specials) are from Asia’s Continental Miracle Box (also known as the Celestial Miracle Box), which is the oldest and most powerful of all the Miracle Boxes (because it would be damaging to the plot of the show to have other Kwami who can alter the fabric of reality).
In regard to the FIrely Kwami, they actually are a member of the Celestial Miracle Box; However, Nooroo, Duusu, and Trix are all apart of the European Continental Miracle Box rather than the Celestial one for story reasons.
Sorry for the long-winded answer, and if there’s anything I should clarify, let me know and I’ll be happy to try (to the best of my tends-to-infodump-messily abilities).
Omg how did I literally like the post without recognizing OP (jail, jail for Glitterpensupremacy for ten thousand years!) this concept is soooo cool and the art is just ✨🔥🔥🔥
so uh- bad news everyone. i've gotten REALLY into sonic. it's bad. so all those who follow me for ninjago- sorry but i do not control the hyperfixation
In honor of it being spooky month, I have decided to post one of my akuma designs
This is the MTS version of Sole Crusher. When a character gets akumatized, its usually because a short-term situation they’re in triggers an underlying issue that has been festering long before Hawk Moth even started terrorizing Paris (the main exceptions to this being young children, who have had less time for a large issue to fester, but also struggle with dealing with their intense emotions, and the more sinister akumas, who are easier to akumatize due to being full of negative energy). In this case, it would be the short term trigger of Chloe trying to get Zoe to behave like her (which would be more of an attempt on Chloe’s part to show her little sister how she genuinely thinks the world works as opposed to being intentionally malicious towards her) combining with Zoe’s long term traumas of needing to conform to others’ desires such as the kids at her boarding school and their mother (hence why SC’s design has the black and white like Audrey’s style).
Sole Crusher’s power would also be different from what it was in the original series. Instead of needing to touch people with the shoes she’s wearing to absorb them and grow larger, she’d end up summoning giant, high heeled pillars to step on people and drain them of all personality (“If I can’t be myself… No one can!”). This change was mainly made to prevent there from being too many akumas whose power is grow really big, and it fit the soul crusher idea that her name is inspired by far better.
(I also think it goes without saying that Zoe’s acting complex would not be resolved in one episode. She’d probably start to act perfect and sweet with the rest of the cast at the end of the episode, but it’s more that she’s watering down her personality to appease potential new friends rather than genuinely being fully honest with others. Similarly, most of the other characters would hold on to their suspicions of Zoe and not immediately accept her.)
don't skip it
Urgent help🚨 🚨📣
Hello,
🛑🚨🚨🚨
My name is Anas Al Burri. I am 17 years old, and I live in Gaza. My sister has jaundice because she gave birth to her child in an unhygienic area during the war. She has no medication, and her condition is worsening, almost life-threatening. She is too ill to produce milk for her son, and we can't get milk from anywhere else. I have no medication for my diabetes! I am missing insulin, and my blood sugar is critically high, often above 180 and sometimes even 400. I suffer from hyperglycemia attacks and can't get to a hospital because we are in the northern part of Gaza.
Three months ago, my 14-year-old brother Ahmad was searching for something to eat when he was sh*ot in the ch*est by sni*pers from a kilometer away. The bul*let went straight through his body. He was just a CHILD! We still can't believe it and keep thinking he will come back any moment. We didn't even have time to mourn him before the next family members were kill*ed.
The hardships my family and I face are beyond what words can describe. This is our last resort.
We are reaching out to you with a desperate plea. We need your help to survive. Your donation can provide us with the life-saving medications and food that we desperately need. Every act of kindness brings us closer to safety and restores a glimmer of hope in our hearts.
With your support, you can give us and many other families in Gaza a chance to survive and rebuild our shattered lives. Help us survive and leave Gaza so that the last of our family does not perish.
Thank you for your empathy and kindness.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Anas Al-Burri and Family
❤❤
