LadyNoir Inequality: Chat Noir’s Fall from Significance
What attracted me to Miraculous, apart from the stellar animation and the potential of the in-universe powers, was the dynamic between Ladybug and Chat Noir. Like the camaraderie of the Phantom Thieves in Persona 5, the partnership between Ruby and Clancy in Ruby Redfort and the hierarchy of respect and power between the Hashira of Demon-Slayer, Marinette and Adrien interested me, because they are two very dissimilar people on separate standings who mutually trusts, supports, and depends on one another despite being different in almost every single way. Their powers, although complimenting, are not comparable, and their personalities, although cordial, are inverse. But despite these odds, Ladybug and Chat Noir are not just friends, companions, and confidants, but equals. 
The first episode of the series, The Bubbler, demonstrates this splendidly (Author’s Note: The Bubbler is the first episode available on Netflix. Chronologically, Stormy Weather is the first official episode, but the same values hold up). It was a jarring introduction to a new show. The audience has no idea who Adrien and Marinette were, what Tikki and Plagg were or why these magical girl transformations suddenly granted them the powers to fight the maniacal butterfly man, but we can recognise the symptoms of two people already deep into the composition of their friendship. The Bubbler threw the smoothness and effectiveness of their teamwork directly into the faces of the audience, and it was brilliant.  
We weren’t weighed down by the gritty details of the beginning, we don’t have to watch the awkward bumbling, the introductions or the unsurety of two strangers who have yet enough reason to trust one another. We were immediately thrusted into the middle of their partnership. The first thing Chat Noir did when he stepped onto the scene was to defend Ladybug and the first thing she did was to joke around comfortably, clearly relieved that he had finally arrived. After watching Marinette obsessively creep around Adrien’s house, trying to show love to a boy she barely knows, and watching Adrien uncomfortably trying to enjoy a social event which he desperatedly wanted but is clearly inexperienced in, the sudden switch of persona and their sudden familiarity and reliance on one another was a fresh breath of air and it made Miraculous a show worth investing in. 
We may not know what happened between them, how they received their powers and how they know each other, but it is obvious some catalytic event has tied Ladybug and Chat Noir together. And by all the features exhibited (another great thing, the words spoken were only secondary to the demonstrative body language) the audience was immediately aware that they have stepped into something sacred, something unbreakable. And even with the thick wall of secret and unspeakable identities between them, we feel comforted when we see them together, because they are comfortable and happy with one another. 
So, fourteen monster-of-the-day episodes later, when Season 1 presented the first inklings of Miraculous’ overarching plot, watching Marinette and Adrien receive their Miraculous, meet each other as civilians and then as superheroes, the scene is nostalgic and sentimental, and aided by the fantastic animation, the audience can appreciate and remember the defining passage as an evocative and triggering moment for years afterwards. 
But that is not to say their partnership hasn’t been without fault.
The cracks were always present, but as the seasons rolled on, it only became more obvious. Their roles were disparate. Ladybug comes up with the plans, Ladybug comes up with the solutions and more often than not, Chat Noir is used as a tool and a distraction for Ladybug’s success. Ladybug had the Lucky Charm and the Miraculous Cure. Chat Noir can stand on his own, defend and attack as an individual, but apart from using the Cataclysm as Ladybug directs, Chat Noir has no outstanding impact on the defeat of any akuma. He does not contribute to any tactics, and he cannot win without Ladybug because he has nothing to offer strategically.   
Assets aside, there is also the matter of leadership.
The audience finds out that Chat Noir initially took the frontman role in The Origins. He attacked Stoneheart first while Ladybug dithered behind. But as Ladybug regained confidence, she took the leadership position in both episodes, and Chat Noir was more than happy to follow. Thus, their dynamic was laid down. They both showed satisfaction with their place in the relationship, Chat Noir often yielding to her judgement, such as in Stormy Weather and Dark Cupid, and Ladybug asserts that Chat Noir was in her team in Antibug. 
The first big indicator of disagreement in this mutually agreed arrangement was in Syren. A contentious episode, the consequence of Chat Noir physically rebelling against Ladybug’s decision for the first time. All the way to Season 4, Rena Rogue has stirred conflict and mistrust between the duo. When I watched Ladybug leading Rena Rogue away while Chat Noir stared angrily at their retreating backs, I remembered hoping that the episode would end with Ladybug telling Chat Noir everything, so that they could have their Season 1 relationship back. Where they navigated this confusing and alien new world together, hiding so much from the public and each other, but never their authenticity and belief in one another.  
I wished that Ladybug had told Chat Noir about the Guardian. I wished that both of them had been privy to the information from the very beginning and I wished that both of them knew who the other Miraculous Holders were because they chose them together. Realistically, someone in the show should’ve connected the dots, and realised that most of the Miraculous Holders were attending a specific class in Collège Françoise Dupont and were all associated with a specific person. That was the only reason I could think of why having Ladybug and Chat Noir choosing the Holders together is a bad idea. It would threaten their identity (which at that point, was still a concern). 
But canonically, Ladybug constantly chose Holders who were dangerously close to the situation. Kagami in Ikari Gozen, Chloé in Malediktator, Rose in Guiltrip and Max in Startrain. The only Holder Chat Noir has chosen wasn’t even chosen by his particular identity. Adrien suggested that Luka might be a good Snake, and Ladybug heeded his words, not Chat Noir’s. I wished there was a single scene where Ladybug and Chat Noir analysed the situation and the potential Holder together, looked at each other, no words needed to be said, just a nod and a telepathic agreement shared through their eyes, and Ladybug would present the next Holder with a Miraculous with her and her partner’s approval both given. 
What was the point of keeping their identities hidden? 
In Season 1, it made some sense. They had no idea the Guardian existed. Even if Chat Noir was reluctant, they can both agree that they could not take their chances, should one of them be captured. But with the reveal of the Guardian’s identity in Season 2, the need for secret identities is almost eradicated. Clearly, there is someone who is an even bigger threat to their civilian lives than Ladybug and Chat Noir are to each other. Ladybug is now burdened with a bigger cache of knowledge. Should one of them be captured, it can only be hoped that it would be Chat Noir, because unlike Ladybug, he could not spew information about potions and kwami and secret books and the Guardian’s location.
In Season 3, the climax of Miracle Queen places the duties of the Guardian directly in Ladybug’s hand. She is now in charge of all the heroes in Paris, she is now the leading physical and strategic force in the battle against Hawk Moth and she is now officially stated as Leader, not just holding a de facto position.
In Season 4, the need for secret identities is gone. Ladybug is the Guardian. She and her original partner, Chat Noir, has no more safety nets in keeping their identities hidden from each other because there is no longer a background link tying them. Should Marinette be incapacitated, should Adrien meet an accident, there is no one reading their news who is available to inform the other person. The only reason why Chat Noir’s identity continues to be hidden from Ladybug is because she does not want to know. The only reason why Ladybug does not reveal her identity to Chat Noir is because she does not want him to know. 
Chat Blanc could be inserted as a contending factor. Chat Blanc saw to it that the reveal of their identities to one another could lead the end of the world.
But Chat Blanc was not the only factor.
Season 4 Marinette is overwhelmed and stressed and guilt-ridden. Season 4 Marinette tore herself apart trying to maintain the kwami, her Guardian duties and continue moonlighting as Ladybug. Season 4 Marinette was at the end of her tether, and at this point, Chat Noir’s presence and his insistence was no longer a support or a comfort but another chore and responsibility to be balanced.
Her support network as both Marinette and Ladybug were extinguished. Thus, in a peaking moment of weakness, she finally revealed her identity to Alya. 
Marinette met Alya and Chat Noir on the same day. Two strangers both became her friend, two insistent strangers who were united in their goal to find out Ladybug’s identity. Marinette hid her secret life from Alya, Ladybug hid her civilian identity from Chat Noir. As Marinette, she was supported by passionate, fierce, and rash Alya who jumped to conclusions and unnerved Marinette with her determination to find out the truth about Ladybug. As Ladybug, she was supported by passionate, fierce, and rash Chat Noir who impulsively leapt into battles and irritated her with his constant declarations of love. 
But Marinette had connections to Alya as both Marinette and Ladybug. She found herself acknowledging Alya’s true character and learned to rely on her through a multitude of trust falls and confrontations. Marinette made the decision to trust Alya, she made the decision to depend on a person she knows as both a citizen and a superhero.
She had no choice with Chat Noir. She never knew who he was, only that he was thrusted into the same situation as she was. Truth was an important concept to Marinette, she stated multiple times that she could not stand liars. And subsequently, she could never really trust Chat Noir because she does not know who he was.
Chat Noir was an emotional crutch during the finale of Season 2 and Season 3. He was the reason why she found the courage to go on despite the anxiety of her failures and the culmination of her carelessness. Throughout Antibug, Heroes’ Day, Gamer 2.0 and Miracle Queen, it was demonstrated that the only way Marinette could trust him and confide in her vulnerabilities was through Ladybug with him as Chat Noir. She couldn’t afford the trust the boy behind the mask, so, when it came to the end of her line, when she has no other choice, Alya was the one to receive the relinquishment of her identity, not Chat Noir. 
Gang of Secrets signified the end of Chat Noir’s reign. 
He was a founding member, one of the original team, once upon a time on equal par with Ladybug. But now, his presence only matters as much as a temporary hero’s. The released episodes of Season 4, Mr Pigeon 72, Sole-Crusher, and most noticeably, Optigami and Sentibubbler, demonstrated the redundance of his company. Both physically and emotionally, Rena Rouge (now known as Rena Furtive) has filled in as Ladybug’s partner. Chat Noir has to be sneaked around, shield from the fact that there is a new permanent hero and shield from the fact that now, there is one other person in the world who knows Ladybug’s identity, that isn’t him. 
With Ladybug’s circle of temporary allies expanded, she no longer needs to rely on Chat Noir to be her support. She could gather up any number of useful powers she has at her disposal and expend them as she wished. In Megaleech, among the five-men team Ladybug had gathered, each one of them has contributed to the defeat of the akuma, with Polymouse outshining as the victor over the army of mini Malediktators, and each one of the other heroes playing a vital role in Ladybug’s plan. Chat Noir’s delegation? To distract the enemy while Ladybug gathered up her soldiers. In the end, he didn’t even use his power, marking the first time in a Miraculous episode that a hero was called upon and left without use. The Cataclysm is no longer necessary for the defeat of an akuma. But the Lucky Charm and the Miraculous Cure are as relevant now as they were when Stoneheart first attacked.
Optigami and Sentibubbler reached the apex of his unimportance. Both times, he was more of a hindrance than a reinforcement. He unconsciously prevented Marinette from becoming Ladybug, which derails the plan to Rena Rogue’s command. He has to be told by Marinette, the civilian, to stay out of the superhero’s plan, because there was nothing he could do that Rena Rogue wasn’t already doing.
The Cataclysm is a one-use power, Chat Noir is a one-trick pony. He’s still stuck in Season 1 mode while Ladybug has broadened to new powers, new suit, new duties, new partners, and new goals.
Hawk Moth knows the identity of all the heroes but Chat Noir don’t. Chloé knows the identities of all the heroes but Chat Noir don’t. Alya has more privileges and inside knowledge than Chat Noir has, and with Rocketear, Nino is now another confidant privy to more secrets than Chat Noir is. 
All Chat Noir is left with, is the comedic side-kick routine he is now entrenched too deeply in to crawl out, the knowledge that his best friend in both his civilian life and superhero life think he’s annoying, and the realisation that Ladybug truly no longer trust him, because the heroes around him, his subordinates in a sense, now ranks higher in prominence.
Did Ladybug mean for this to happen? Absolutely not. 
But Chat Blanc is no longer a reason big enough to cover all the discrepancies. And she has grown so used to keeping him in the dark to realise how much the darkness was causing the chasm between them to grow. Chat Noir is now outwardly lying to Ladybug that he’s fine, refusing to tell her that he knows to some extent the secrets she has kept from him. In Season 2, he angrily confronted her about being left behind. In Season 4, now that Ladybug holds all the power, now that he no longer has the authority to demand reasons and explanations, the only thing he could do is keep his mouth shut and hope that the sheer cliff he’s balancing on does not shear away even more.
Because Chat Noir is still fun for him, isn’t it? Being a hero, being himself? Chat Noir isn’t a role for him to act, to fake being happy, to pretend to be something he’s not. Chat Noir is a persona where he can be as expressive, as temperamental, as coquettish, and childish and experimental he wants. An entity where he can safely explore all the emotions children his age usually experiences without consequences. A place where he isn’t held under fear of abandonment or emotional abuse, where he can explore his identity and speak his mind without retaliation or repercussions.  
Isn’t it? 
Chat Noir’s presence is still prevalent at every akuma fight because he is a founding member. Ladybug has no reason to tell him to go home, and he’s still useful in the sense that he can provide distractions while Ladybug figures out her plan, and feed information to Rena Furtive who is hiding and watching and waiting. And there is still the Cataclysm, a power that is supposed to rival the Lucky Charm, whose potential is still yet unearthed. 
But Chat Noir has no more standing to rely on. He is no longer a principal participant in the encompassing war between Ladybug and Hawk Moth, even if he is a principal target. Each side gathers up their warriors and equipment, and Chat Noir is just another treasured pawn in Ladybug’s army. He is alone in the fact that no one knows his identity. Ladybug has someone, Hawk Moth has someone, and both of them has an arsenal of champions to pick from.
He’s a wild card, he’s an anomaly. He was once Ladybug’s partner, he was a prototype for the modern Miraculous hero, and by himself, he had a visible presence. But he lost the novelty quickly. 
Even in Season 1, people preferred Ladybug. She was the one to fix their city, she made the flashy speech at the Eiffel Tower, it was explainable. In Season 2, Hawk Moth began to ignore his Miraculous multiple times in favour of Ladybug’s earrings. Chloé called him Ladybug’s second fiddle. In Season 3, Fu’s obvious favour of Ladybug as future Guardian emphasised Chat Noir’s emerging sidelining. And in Season 4, Ladybug herself begun to omit her partner. 
What does this have in store for the future? Rumours and headcanons fly, whispers of an akumatization on par with Chat Blanc looms closer and closer. Personally, I hope that something more substantial is done with Chat Noir’s character. There’s still so much to be expatiated, his family history, his own personality, and his unlocked powers. If the Black Cat Miraculous was truly the harmonizing consort of the Ladybug Miraculous, then logically, Chat Noir should be receiving the multiple new upgrades in the near future.
A climax where an issue that has spanned for four seasons ending within two episodes sounds stereotypically Miraculous and nightmarish. But the show has three more seasons to go, and hopefully this conflict will be used as a starting point for what may be in store for those seasons.
What if Chat Noir decides to deflect? What is he decided to derail, and what if Chat Noir becomes the next villain? ShadowMoth is a recurring joke at this point, and with the development of Season 4, ShadowMoth’s return in Season 5 sounds exhausting and repetitive. Looking at the overarching picture, there is only one person that has enough incentive and power to become Ladybug’s future archnemesis.
Love and hate are the opposite sides of the same coin. 
But no matter what is in store for the distant narrative of Miraculous, this essay concludes on the now. 
We look at Season 1 Chat Noir, and the Chat Noir of the latest episode. Even if his powers and position hasn’t grown, he has developed into his role emotionally, in an unfortunately negative way. 
Chat Noir is no longer Ladybug’s partner, and analytically, no longer as important as he once was.
I really hope the show does something good with this.

LadyNoir Inequality: Chat Noir’s Fall from Significance
How does Ladybug and Chat Noir's roles differ between the seasons? How was responsibility, positions, duties delegated between them? This essay analyses in detail how the LadyNoir fallout of Season 4 came to be, and how Chat Noir ultimately fell from hierarchal significance.
What attracted me to Miraculous, apart from the stellar animation and the potential of the in-universe powers, was the dynamic between Ladybug and Chat Noir. Like the camaraderie of the Phantom Thieves in Persona 5, the partnership between Ruby and Clancy in Ruby Redfort and the hierarchy of respect and power between the Hashira of Demon-Slayer, Marinette and Adrien interested me, because they are two very dissimilar people on separate standings who mutually trusts, supports, and depends on one another despite being different in almost every single way. Their powers, although complimenting, are not comparable, and their personalities, although cordial, are inverse. But despite these odds, Ladybug and Chat Noir are not just friends, companions, and confidants, but equals.
 The first episode of the series, The Bubbler, demonstrates this splendidly (Author’s Note: The Bubbler is the first episode available on Netflix. Chronologically, Stormy Weather is the first official episode, but the same values hold up). It was a jarring introduction to a new show. The audience has no idea who Adrien and Marinette were, what Tikki and Plagg were or why these magical girl transformations suddenly granted them the powers to fight the maniacal butterfly man, but we can recognise the symptoms of two people already deep into the composition of their friendship.

Personally, I hope that something more substantial is done with Chat Noir’s character. There’s still so much to be expatiated, his family history, his own personality, and his unlocked powers. If the Black Cat Miraculous was truly the harmonizing consort of the Ladybug Miraculous, then logically, Chat Noir should be receiving the multiple new upgrades in the near future.
A climax where an issue that has spanned for four seasons ending within two episodes sounds stereotypically Miraculous and nightmarish. But the show has three more seasons to go, and hopefully this conflict will be used as a starting point for what may be in store for those seasons.
What if Chat Noir decides to deflect? What is he decided to derail, and what if Chat Noir becomes the next villain? ShadowMoth is a recurring joke at this point, and with the development of Season 4, ShadowMoth’s return in Season 5 sounds exhausting and repetitive. Looking at the overarching picture, there is only one person that has enough incentive and power to become Ladybug’s future archnemesis.
Love and hate are the opposite sides of the same coin.
But no matter what is in store for the distant narrative of Miraculous, this essay concludes on the now.
We look at Season 1 Chat Noir, and the Chat Noir of the latest episode. Even if his powers and position hasn’t grown, he has developed into his role emotionally, in an unfortunately negative way.
Chat Noir is no longer Ladybug’s partner, and analytically, no longer as important as he once was.
I really hope the show does something good with this.

The part two of the minicomic about Opposite Miraclass is here:
Tumblr media
Part one
Zoom+:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Luka (despite he's a delinquent) secretly frequents his biological father Jagged Stone for Violin lessons. But Bob Roth, the stepfather is a horrible and cruel father: He disapproves Luka's behavior. Because of the stepfather, Luka's going make an alliance with Lycène Bleue.
Félix is worried about Adrien who's becoming a bad boy. With his girlfriend Kagami, he remembers the time when Adrien was a kindhearted boy (before the latter's parents' death). Adrien commits a prank crime on Kim with spiders (Opposite of the episode Derision).
Zoé Lee is an actress and André/Anamixandre is her film director/mentor. She has the same personality as Canon Chloé Bourgeois. She sadistically burns a script (of an eventual movie not yet adapted) she judges utterly ridiculous. She destroys it at the sight of the powerless scenarist (the writer, an adult). In the Opposite universe, Zoé is responsible of major part of akumatizations.
Lila Rossi Cerise Lenoir is the opposite of her counterpart: Her actions are reasonable and recquire good intentions. She doesn't ruin reputations of her friends (only Colt Fathom's reputation and especially his financial empire). She's a strongly opponent to the Fathom Company ans she acts like an antiheroin: she infiltrates the Company with the help of Wayhem (who seems unrassured about her plan even if they have the common point to stop Fathom's shenanigans). She sometimes breaks the Law for that. We can ses her and Wayhem in disguise of Iris Verdi (based on Lila's fake identities see: #ml leaks) and William Azzurri.
"Iris" feels like proud of her own clothing meanwhile "William" doesn't like his "moustache" (Tikki and Plagg cameo).
Bonus + Alternate scene: Cerise vs Lycène Bleue
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Left: Cerise kills an Akuma/butterfly with an insecticide
Right (Alternate scene): Lycène Bleue was committing an break-in at Cerise's home when she was busted by the latter girl. At the present, Cerise turns into her Canon counterpart (Lila) and threats the Butterfly villainess with a "gun".

Waiting the release of the first chapter of thé upcoming Opposite AU, I release to you a minicomic about Opposite counterparts of the Miraclass (it's just the part One).
Tumblr media
Zoom +:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sabrina as the class representative is disciplinarian on Chloé.
Alya "respects" Lycène Bleue like others villains she knows. Nino warns her about the Butterfly's villainy. Lycène Bleue spies them via an akuma. She's angry against Alya because the girl wants to unmask her.
Kim goes at the pool with Ondine but he panics because of agitation on place. Ondine thinks her shame for him (I had planned his scene before the Derision episode release and I drawn it after watching the episode).
Alix lacks of energy and untrustful towards the Fathom Company. Max is ANTI-A.I. (Markov from the canon is saddened by the latter's words).
Juleka wears Noblesse-style clothes. But Rose wears Gothic or Emo-style clothes and she talks too gross she inspires fear at the others (Canon Rose is kind, innocent).
Mylène and Ivan are anarchists and vandals (direct action instead of pacifism).
Marinette/M.D.C. opens the "gift" Adrien offered to her and it's Adrien who takes the damage of his prank (he takes spiders causing him scared while Marinette remains impassible). Lila Cerise and Wayhem laughed at him for receiving his own prank.
Nathaniel and Marc judge other artists' creations too hard (Nobody judges anyone ? My ass !)

I present to you the first direct sketch about the O.P. (Opposite Universe).
Ladybug and Cat miraculous holders from the O.P. are here:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I introduce you Rouge Chance and Alley Cat.
Alley Cat's real identity is Cerise Lenoir (Lila's Opposite counterpart).
Cerise was an orphan girl who was hosted and adopted by Marianne Lenoir. It's Marianne who educated her and learned to her the mankind's, family's and love's values. Thanks to her, Cerise has knowledge skills about miraculouses' powers and she's become the New guardian of the Miracle box.
Rouge Chance's identity is not yet revealed but I will let you guess that in a future update (Spoiler: It's neither Marinette nor Adrien nor Alya. It's another person).
Rouge Chance is the Miraculous team leader at Paris. He's not interested by the Fame (because he's pissed of that) and he doesn't recquire autographs from any people like pop-stars, actors, stylists, top-models, etc..
There are Miraculous adult characters here with their personas are different (even inversed) in the list. Meanwhile, they have details that will surprise you. I drawed Colt Fathom (from leaks), Félix's father, not yet introduced in the TV show.
Example: In Canon, Colt is officially deceased. In Opposite, Colt is still alive and he has adopted Adrien after the latter's parents' deaths.
I let you imagine O.P. Adrien's life with Fathom's family (Colt, Félix and Amélie).
Tumblr media
List of available Opposite characters:
Colt Fathom. Billionaire with multiple nationalities (American-British-French). Negligect parent like in canon.
Roger Raincomprix. Mayor of Paris.
Tomoe Tsurugi. Kagami's mother. Mercantile. Progressist on tradition values instead Traditionalist.
Caline Bustier, Teacher who is annoyed with her pupils.
Nathalie Sancoeur. Archeologist. Owner of the Agreste's mansion since Gabriel's and Émilie's deaths.
Xavier Ramier. He hates birds (mainly pigeons).
Master Fu. Former guardian of the Miracle Box. Marianne's defunct love interest. Died as a hero of the Résistance during the 1940-1944 Occupation period.

I introduce you Lycène Bleue the Butterfly Miraculous holder from the Opposite Universe and the planified major antagonist for the Inversed Personas concept.
Tumblr media
-Presentation:
Lycène Bleue "came" to Paris for one goal: Steal the Ladybug and Cat miraculouses for gaining the Absolute Power that would help her to grant her precious wish.
-Superpowers and abilities:
With the power of Transmission (related to the Butterfly Miraculous), she transforms people she targeted into her "champions". She had fighting skills in martial arts (like the Kung-fu by training with Fei Wu and some part of Mira-Kung-fu) and sword mastering (fencing). She is a tactician and a master orator too.
-Personality:
In her Lycène Bleue form, she is similar to Gabriel Agreste a.k.a. Hawkmoth: She's charismatic, master orator, manipulator, sophisticated, strategist and greedy (about miraculouses). She's an intimidating person when she introduces herself.
She acts like Canon Lila Rossi too: She's seductive, sneaky (useful for her to easily akumatize her victims), sadist and she threats, blackmails people who try to find out her real identity.
Meanwhile she can sometimes be compassionate for some people she meets on her run and for people she worries for (like Adrien and Fei). She's tragic and melancolic. She's become her own Villain character in reason of a dramatic event from the past that let her depressed until she's owning the Butterfly miraculous, faithless and emotionless.
Spoiler: In her civilian form, She has the same persona and same look as (Opposite)Marinette.
-Likes: -CLASSIFIED-*
-Dislikes/Hates: capricious people, lies (especially lies about herself), uncontrollable akumatized victims, superheroes (she hates Alley Cat more than anything), to be defeated by Rouge Chance and Alley Cat
Love interest: Same crushes as Marinette Dup... -CLASSIFIED-*
*Top secret: It's classified ! Access denied !
Tumblr media
And now, there are Lycène Bleue's akumatized villains from the Opposite Universe (the two last will surprise you):
Tumblr media
Xavier Ramier/Monsieur Chasseur
Fred Haprèle/Le Bavard
Mayor Roger Raincomprix/Disciplinator
Max Kante/Hacker or Anti-Machine
Zoé Lee a.k.a. Queen Vesperia/Queen Wasp (akumatized miraculous holder)
Marinette Dupain-Cheng/Fairy Trico-Mean (in french: Fée Tracassine); It's an evil version of Fée Tricotine
Adrien Agreste/Prince Farceur
The full sketch is here:

Miraculous: Tales in the Opposite Universe (Inversed Personas AU): Chapter Two part 5
This story is a fanfiction (Not an official script for an episode of the TV show). Some characters result from Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir (original title: Miraculous: Les aventures de Ladybug et Chat Noir). It contains some original characters (OC) but they're fanon. All rights reserved to ZagToon.
Part one two three four
The three teenagers come back to the ship Liberty. They see everybody is awaiting the beginning of the debate. They blend into the growd and take place between the Alya-Nino couple, Socqueline and the Kitty Section gang.
Socqueline interpels Cerise who is accompanied of the two unexpected guests.
Socqueline: "Hey, Cerise. Mylène and her friends told me about your two 'tourists'."
The pigtail-haired girl looks at Marinette and Adrien for a short moment before turning to Cerise.
Scq: "Are they the ones ? They look identical to MDC and Adrien. Especially the blonde boy. He seems like Adrien, this chaotic boy."
C: "I present you Germaine and Nathan."
M and A (simultaneous): "Salut."
Sql (with curious tone): "Hmm… I have a question for your two new friends. (to Marinette and Adrien) Where are you from ?"
Marinette rethinks about Cerise's advice. She must say a lie but, in a world that is not hers, it's a necessary thing. Same idea for Adrien.
M: "We are from… London."
A: "That's correct. Me too. Germaine and I are travelling around the world. We arrived to Paris yesterday. For now… We don't know how long we'll here."
Scq (doubtful): "You don't… know ?"
C (moderately shouting): "They'll leave Paris once they'll have found their happiness !"
Cerise's words surprise Marinette and Adrien.
C (calming down and nervous): "I wanna say: They're happy to come at Paris. But they'll leave if they only wish, of course."
Socqueline feels impressed but she gradually expresses a delighted expression.
Scq: "Bienvenue à Paris, Germaine and Nathan."
M (bit of nervous): "Huh… Merci."
Mel announces the beginning of the debate, the mic in her hand. Everybody silents.
Ml: "May everybody listen carefully ! Our friend is coming and he will talk. There is an unexpected guest will be the next to talk. She will introduce herself in the next moment for communicate with us about the Fathom Company's actions. She must present some confidential files about that."
Wayhem cames on stage with paperforms in his hands.
Ml: "Wayhem out leader of our movement Paris against F-Lobby has the honour to announce future actions to make for Paris."
Mel gives the mic to Wayhem and leaves the platform. The ex-Ladybug boy has to speak his allocution.
W: "Bonjour mes amis. I am pleased to see all of you. Today, I still hope we can upgrade our living conditions since we put pressure on the Fathom Company. We have already succeeded many times like preventing the collège Françoise Dupont to be replaced by a business school and a shopping center, so we continue to maintain our methods for the ensuring our future."
Most of participants applaud.
M (thinking): "In this world, the collège Françoise Dupont has been threatened of demolition ? I just remember Mr Mayor who was akumatized into Maledictator had caused the demolition of her school with his hypnosis superpower on pupils and teachers one time. But here, enemies are not supervillains with magic but casual people from a company. I hope Lycène wouldn't recquire the destruction of all schools."
W: "The theme of the day focuses on the security. Some students from Fathom Academy had told some of us the Fathom Company and Tsurugi Industries are negociating with the Mayor Raincomprix about introducing: A police of bots !"
The crowd is shocked, outraged by this revelation. Especially Sabrina who becomes annoyed about the bot police plan.
Chl: "Ridiculous utterly ridiculous. Right ?"
S (to Wayhem): "Are you sure about this Robot Police story ? My dad was a policeman before being elected as mayor of Paris. Of course, he is related with Colt Fathom but it's not in his mind to accepting the police bots' thing !"
W: "I understand, Sabrina. Meanwhile, I regret to say you it's true. According to the leak, there are just ongoing negociations since a few weeks. Moreover, the unexpected guest Mel had mentioned is a teenager girl from the Fathom Academy."
The next info wonders most part of the crowd.
W: "Her name will surprise all of you. I invite Ma…"
But suddenly, before Wayhem can announce the guest star's name, a tall projectile (a desk) comes from the sky like it was thrown from we don't know. Spectators (include Marinette and Adrien) from the crowd who are horrified : ATTENTION !!!
Marinette, Adrien and Cerise who already came close to the stage are in alarm situation. No time for think, Adrien instantly goes to Wayhem, catches him and barely saves him from the projectile. This object brutally sinks into the stage. Thanks, lord. There is no casualties. For now.
A few seconds later, a noisy but terrorizing voice is heard: "ADRIIIEEEEN !!!!"
That came from the bow of the wreck. We can see a ginger-haired boy wearing a red mask and extravagant clothes: It's an akumatized villain and he holds a big slingshot on his left hand.
Adrien recognizes his voice. He remembers him: The ginger boy from yesterday !
Tumblr media
Nino: "Hey ! Dude ! What's wrong with you ?!"
Ginger boy (to Nino): "I'm not your 'dude', moron ! I am the Thrower and I search Adrien Graham de Vanily."
N: "What Adrien ? If he was here, he would orchestrated against us and run away."
Thrower looks on the blonde boy who saved Wayhem.
Thrower (expressing annoyed): "And him ? Who is this boy ?! A look-alike, huh ?"
N: "Him ? It's Nathan. A newbie."
Thrower: "I don't believe you, moron."
The Thrower begins to point his slingshot to Nino. On his slingshot, a chair magically appears. For Adrien, that's enough ! Facing against the villain, Adrien interpels.
A: "Don't hurt my dude !"
N (perplexed): Huh ?! 'Dude' ?
A: "Yeah ! That's me. I am the real Adrien. Let these people go away. Don't hurt them !"
His words amaze the teenagers (even Nino and Wayhem) while some of them try to seek to hide for flee the villain.
N (still perplexed): "Huh… Thanks, du… Adrien."
Nino goes to join Alya and the others. For Marinette and Cerise, this is madness Adrien takes a risk to confront the villain. They must hide for transform themselves.
Th: "Hah, Adrien prince of Pranks, You f***ing bastard ! I found you."
W: "Run, Adrien !"
While the Thrower points his slingshot on Adrien, he suddenly interupted by Wayhem. Ouch ! The latter had just thrown his mic on the villain's head. The chair at the top of his weapon disappears. This unpredictable attack angers the bad guy.
Thanks to Wayhem's action, Adrien manages to flee and takes refuge under a bridge.
A: "Noboby in sight ? Fine."
Plagg: "It seems like you're the black sheep of this world, Adrien."
A: "I guess, bro. But Wayhem couldn't be able to survive to the bad guy long enough. Plagg, Claw…"
?: "Hey, dude !"
Adrien is interupted and Plagg goes to hide in his holder's shirt. Nino is coming from the stairs where he is hidden with Alya, Mylène and the Kitty Section gang (Luka, Juleka, Rose and Ivan).
A: "Ah Nino. I'm glad you're fine."
N: "I don't know you were actually say alone but come with us if you want to escape the villain. But thanks for saving my life in moment before."
A: "Huh… You're welcome, Nino."
Alya had begun to film the Akuma moment. Waiting for Alley Cat's and Lycène Bleue's appearance, he looks on Adrien.
Al: "An interview for the Mirablog: I wanna know why this villain tries to crush you."
A (a little pertubed): "Are you sure is it the moment for that ?"
N: "Alya !!"
Al: "Have you started over to commit another prank crime ? I thought you stopped these things ?"
A: "And you all, have you a plan B if your… If the heroes failed ? You must compose a Resistance movement against supervillains and evil Miraculous holders."
Alya becomes silent. The others were dumbfounded to realize Adrien is aware about their movement's existence. In fact, in this world, there exists a Resistance network facing against Lycène Bleue like the Resistance facing against Monarch in the initial world.
N: "My dude. The Resistance thing is a confidential secret but you're right. We have effectively a plan B to use for each battle."
A: "Good. But me, I will…"
N: "You will help us to prepare the ambush against Lycène Bleue."
Rose: "When this b**** comes to the battle, we will f*** her once and all. (escaping a nervous laugh)"
A: "Uh… Okay."
N (to everyone): "And now, let me explain the strategy."
------
In this moment, Marinette and Cerise had taken refuge behind an other stone stair of the quai.
M: "Adrien has taken a big risk. But I suppose he's safe now."
C: "Yeah. But tour Adrien had wasted his own undercover. And Wayhem, in this situation, will not able to keep the high ground soon."
Cerise's Plagg: "You will talk about this later, girls."
M's Tikki: "We have a kind boy to protect and an akuma to neutralize."
M and C (simultaneous): "Okay."
M: "Tikki, Spots on !"
C: Plagg, Claws out !"

About the Opposite AU, I think some ideas for tell/write the story:
I hesitate to make it between a written version or illustrated version. It can be a fanfic with drawings within.
This poll is a proposal to Tumblr visitors. Technically, the WIP is under construction with the contribution of you.
