Swapped - Chapter 2

Here you are @dawn-the-rithmatist​, I hope its to your satisfaction!

AO3

Chapter 1

Original AU post

Story Summary: When Chat Noir is hit by a beam from an akuma, he is transported to another reality where Ladybug isn’t...Ladybug. Instead, he’s partnered up with the infuriating Scarlet Lady in his quest to find his way home.

Marinette blinked before letting out a large screech, "What?!"

Chat Noir immediately covered her mouth with his gloved hands, "Shush, keep it down!" Marinette's cheeks went scarlet red, which Chat found strange. She acted very differently in his reality. He dropped his hands.

"Are you an akuma," Marinette asked, "Because that is the weirdest thing I've ever heard."

"No, I'm not. The akuma - the one in my reality - hit me with some blue beam and I woke up to find your Ladybug yelling at me!" Chat said, grabbing at his hair. This was crazy, even for his standards.

"Oh, that sounds like Scarlet Lady," Marinette rolled her eyes. "Come on in." She disappeared from view and Chat followed.

He landed on her bed as Marinette climbed down at and sat on her chaise. She leaned back against the pillow and crossed her arms. Chat looked around, finding the room suspiciously lacking in photos. Specifically - his photos. In his reality, Marinette's room was covered in photos from his photoshoots for inspiration, which Adrien found sweet. But now, there were only photos of her and her friends lining the walls - along with sketches of half-finished designs. Chat leaned forward and was pleasantly surprised to see that he was still featured. Good, if this reality's Chat had to deal with Scarlet Lady - he needed Marinette.

"So," Marinette started, drawing his attention away from the walls. "What's going on?"

Chat swung his legs over the side, placing his elbows on his knees. "Okay, so there's was an akuma. She called herself Shifter."

Marinette hummed, her brow furrowing. "Did this...Shifter, did she zap anyone before you?" Chat nodded. "So it doesn't have anything to do with this reality's akuma: Swapper?" She pointed at the computer, where a live feed of the Eiffel Tower was being played. People ran around, just as confused as they were in his reality. Chat nodded.

"That's the same akuma, except she's purple and has the name Swapper."

"So, if you're in this reality - do you think that my reality's Chat is in yours?"

"Yeah, probably."

"And your Ladybug is a good Ladybug."

"The best."

"Maybe if he and your Ladybug beat your akuma, you'll be transported back. Better than you going up against Swapper with Scarlet Lady on your side."

Chat huffed out a laugh. "I hope so. I wonder how he's doing, fighting with a capable partner."

-

"You're Ladybug?" Chat asked. Ladybug nodded.

"..Yes."

"Like, the holder of the ladybug miraculous, Ladybug." The dark-haired, black-spotted, heroine just nodded. They were held up behind a brick chimney, Chat waking up to see the beautiful Ladybug shaking him awake. They were now both standing, Chat's hands on Ladybug's shoulders.

"...Yes."

Chat immediately get out a large laugh and squeezed her up into a tight hug. "Yes!" he cheered. "Finally!"

-

"He's probably fine," Marinette said. She stood up. "So, what's the plan."

Chat jumped down from Marinette's bed and ran his hands through his hair. "If Swapper is anything like Shifter, that means that her attention can be drawn. She gets focused on one target."

"Do you know what her akumized object could be?" Marinette asked. Chat shook his head and Marinette swore. "Do you know anything that could hint to what it is?"

"No, I don't. And even if I did, how do we know that its the same thing?"

Marinette sighed, "Yeah. You're right."

"Alright, I need to go and surveil her. Try to find out a plan." He turned to jump out the trapdoor, but was stopped by Marinette grabbing his arm.

"Wait, is your Ladybug capable." Chat turned and Marinette stepped back.

"Yeah, she's the best."

"Who makes the plans between you two?"

"Ladybug."

"And what do you do?"

"I'm usually the muscle."

Marinette turned and grabbed her coat that was hanging off her chair.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm going with you. You definitely aren't used to working alone and you're going to need some backup."

Chat just looked at her.

"What?" she asked.

"Huh, you're much more involved in this reality. It's..cool."

Marinette went pink in the cheeks before clearing her throat and climbing up to the trapdoor. Chat followed.

He grabbed her waist and expanded his baton, propelling them over the street and onto the rooftops. He tucked away his baton and carried Marinette bridal style until they reached a suitable spot for studying the akuma. Thankfully, Swapper didn't move, continuing to crackle along the confused throng of people. He set Marinette down next to him.

The Swapper looked the exact same as in his reality, except for the color. Intead of the blue that he was fighting in his reality, Swapper was covered head to toe in purple.

Scarlet Lady landed beside Chat and both him and Marinette groaned. Scarlet Lady just rolled her eyes. "Oh great, Maritrash is here."

"Your insults are just getting better and better," Marinette remarked dryly. Chat chuckled.

"Ha, you're such a comedian, aren't you-" Scarlet Lady almost screeched before Chat covered her mouth with his gloved hand. She dug her Chat Noir-like claws into Chat's arm, forcing him to drop his hand.  

"God, woman," he hissed, moving closer to Marinette. "This is who you have to deal with all the time?"

Marinette nodded, "Just wait until the press show up."

Chat turned his attention back to the Swapper. There, in the glint of the sun - there laid a gem in the center of her palms. He tapped Marinette's shoulder.

"Hey, the center of her palm. You see it?" Marinette nodded.

"That must be what gives her the power," she said. Scarlet Lady just scoffed.

"Yeah, it's so tacky."

Chat and Marinette just looked at each other. God, Chat really needed to get back to his own reality.

Daminette December Day 14: ‘Power Swap AU’

@daminette-december2019

Same Minuit Au, where Damian is the black cat. 

---

Regular old night out chasing akuma. The usual. 

Ladybug grunted, snapping her yoyo at the akuma, earning a pained screech out of the victim. “Why is she so fast?” She grumbled, grappling off someone’s balcony in an effort to swing closer to the akuma. 

“You’re just slow.” Minuit retorted, jumping by, using his baton to give him the momentum he needed between leaps. 

Ladybug shot him a dirty look, snorting when Minuit’s belt caught on a satellite dish of someone’s apartment. Minuit recovered pretty quickly, looking embarrassed, and the dark-haired girl gave her fellow partner some mercy and didn’t say a word. 

“We’re almost onto her. Circle back and come from the other side so we can corner her and get this over with. I have a test tomorrow and I need sleep.” Ladybug instructed, making a conscious effort to prevent a yawn from escaping her mouth. 

Minuit nodded without any argument, and made a detour to circle around the akuma as the lady had said. 

“Well done, Swapper!” Hawkmoth cackled. “Now, swap their powers and take their Miraculousess!” 

Ladybug rolled her eyes as the akuma responded with a quick ‘Yes Hawkmoth’. Honestly, did that old butterfly man never get any sleep? Apparently not. 

“Alright Swapper, time to end this little game.” Ladybug snapped, her weariness affecting her state of mind. Her yoyo flew out at the akuma, snatching the akuma off guard. 

“Not so quick.” The akuma smirked, sending a blast to a nearby column, revealing a once-hiding Minuit behind. Pointing one of each hand at both heroes, a quick zap left both heroes feeling dazed and... Weird. 

“What did you even...?” Ladybug murmured, looking down at her hands. Shaking her head, dismissing it as a failure of the akuma’s powers, she threw her yoyo out, only for the akuma to dodge, resulting in her wrecking absolute chaos in a chimney, breaking the entire thing down into dust clouds of cement. 

“What the hell, bug.” Minuit blinked, looking at the chimney his partner just demolished. 

“The-That wasn’t supposed to happen?” Ladybug stuttered, looking absolutely baffled. “I- I don’t-” 

It hit him when the akuma cackled. Of course. If he was’t mistaken... 

“Come at me, buggy~” The akuma teased, prompting his partner, who moved forward, only to fall through a weak part of a roof into someone’s house. The akuma cackled, jumping in after the lady, but not before Minuit extended his baton, catching the akuma by the fabric of her dress, tossing her to where the demolished chimney was. 

It was a few seconds that he had, but... 

Minuit tossed up his baton, looking really unsure as he murmured the words. “Lucky charm?” 

A faint black glow flashed from the maximum height his baton flew up to, and it dropped back down with a mirror. Minuit groaned “Oh come on. Don’t tell me I have to wrack my brain for how the hell to use this.” 

By the time he summoned his ‘Lucky Charm’, Ladybug had crawled out of the nearly half-demolished building, coughing from the dust. “Where... Did a mirror come from?” 

Minuit didn’t quite know how to explain. “I... Summoned a lucky charm.” 

To say she was appalled was an understatement. “You did a what?” 

“Hey, I’m pretty sure you could do a cataclysm right now.” He defended himself. “In fact, I’m rather sure that you already pretty much did, without even saying the words.” He gestured at the ruin apartment they were fighting on. She shrugged. 

“Fair point.” Readying her yoyo, she sighed. “Well, what’s the plan, then?” 

Minuit nodded. “Just cover me.” 

Already beginning to draw her yoyo into a fast spinning circle, Ladybug nodded. “You got it.” As soon as the words were out of her mouth, she was darting towards the akuma, parts of the roof crumbling under her feet. Minuit had never expected for Ladybug to be that destructive. He did not want to imagine how chaotic she could be with the actual cat miraculous.

Her yoyo was flying so fast that it was just a blur of spinning red, and as she advanced on the akuma, her yoyo slashed across the akuma quickly, barely seen by the bare eye. The akuma attempted to block her, fumbling with her staff to defend herself. 

Swapper had begun to realise that swapping their powers only made the two more powerful. Growling in frustration, the akuma raised her hand to swap again. 

She threw a blast at Minuit, only for him to luckily avoid it by pulling a mirror in front of him, and the next thing she knew- She had swapped powers with- 

With- 

Hawkmoth...? 

“Hawkmoth? What’s happening?” She asked, the butterfly mask appearing on her cheeks. Only thing was, she was the one controlling ol’ Hawky now. 

With a little purple flash, her costume changed- Into a purple suit with lavender collars. A wand with a purple orb on the top appeared in her hands, and...

The butterfly miraculous flashed onto the middle of her suit. 

Ladybug lunged at the flooring of the roof, yelling: “Cataclysm!”, causing the roof to cave, and with a quick snatch of his baton, Minuit had caught the girl and had the miraculous in his hand. 

“That was not how I expected it would go down.” Minuit carefully said, setting down the detransformed, confused, girl down. 

“Not what I expected either, but.” Ladybug shrugged. “Oh well.” 

[I feel like i went a little off-topic for this one, but... Aish, my writing’s getting worse. Also, Damian was a little OOC]

bluestar naming brightpaw lostface was extremely ableist but i feel like a lot of the fandom misconstrues malicious intent into it?

she wasn’t like rainflower evily rubbing her hands together and deliberately naming her kid something cruel, she was severely mentally ill and believed that the dog attack was a punishment from starclan.

at that point, there was a very real possibility that brightpaw wouldn’t survive, and bluestar took the opportunity to ‘get back’ at starclan by naming her lostface.

does that make it any better? not really. but i dont think that it shows that bluestar was bad and ableist as much as it shows that she should not have been in a position of power during her breakdown.

something something leopardstar working with tigerstar and eventually becoming an accessory to him causing her to become a target of heteronormativity which she doesnt challenge because in order to justify the murder of mixed-clan children she needed to kill the passionate little gay kid with a fear of water inside her or something idk i just wanted to draw leopardstar

‘kill the part of you that cringes’ is a neat anthem for fighting back against cringe culture and accepting yourself no matter what, but in terms of actually overcoming internalized ableism/anti-queerness/the myriad of other factors that cause people to view their identity through a normative lens, it’s ineffective and harmful.

like for me, an autistic person who has faced bullying and scorn for being really really into ‘weird’ topics, the part of me that cringes isn’t some evil invader that needs to be defeated in order to feel true autistic joy.

it’s a learned trauma response caused by the allistic societal view of what is and is not considered normal. what interests are natural and good, and what interests are bad. scary. shameful. gross. it’s a deep-rooted belief that suppressing my true self is the only way to be worthy of love and companionship.

when i look below the surface-level feelings of disgust and self-loathing, what i find isn’t cruelty, but terror.

and that’s why i don’t think killing the part of me that cringes is the right thing to do, because it’s the part of myself that’s been so affected by cringe culture and anti-autistic ableism that it’s terrified of doing anything to provoke them.

it needs support and compassion, to be told that it will be loved regardless of how many ‘cringy’ things it gets excited over and draws fanart of and thinks about for weeks on end. only then will it be at peace.

i know this is pretty anecdotal, but i hope others affected by cringe culture can take something away from this post. for a while i’ve forced myself to ‘just get over’ my internalized ableism and normative thinking because Cringe Culture Is Dead Silly Goose, and it just caused me to be angry with myself for being insecure and anxious in the first place without addressing any of the underlying reasons for feeling that way.

so, uh. give the part of you that cringes a big hug today. or whatever’s equivalent if it doesn’t like hugs very much. thanks for reading :)

i tried to save this ask as a draft and it disappeared. so

@colorfulcoffeetidalwave reached out to me for help being able to afford insulin after losing his job due to long covid.

upon looking up his url several people have stated that it’s a scam, with someone claiming that his initial post was stolen from someone on twitter. this checks out, considering the identical asks sent to unrelated blogs and the recent account age.

but also,,,, i just dont know??? i dont want to denounce someone that genuinely needs support, but i also dont want to accidentally lead people into a scam.

i guess i’d say check it out and form your own opinion- and tidal, if you have true intentions, then i wish you well. black lives matter and insulin should be free now and forever

EDIT: i did a bit more digging and now im like 99% sure this is a scam. God Dang It

my drafts are so so cluttered because i am physically incapable of reblogging anything without writing an essay in the tags so im gonna do some aggressive queueposting for the next few days. yippee!

attempted the evil artstyle challenge with ‘Bones Of Cardboard’ alderheart!

my style tends to use big eyes with small pupils, bright colors, thick lineart, shape language, simple markings, lots of fluff, and a complete disregard for anatomy and realism. so i uh. attempted the opposite.

halfway thru i kinda gave up on taking it seriously and just started leaning into the 2000’s deviantart vibe i was getting, so i might redo it at some point.

but for now enjoy this half-baked creature i’ve created and my official design for the absolute most interesting character in all of warrior cats. wahoo

i have no idea how relevant this is because i literally just noticed it but um. here is my take on the Youtube Pronouns Update

i sorta get why youtube isnt letting people make Just Anything their pronouns because theres always gonna be people who’ll use that space to be gross and cissexist but cmon you couldn’t have at least added any/all pronouns? i know that most ppl that use any/all are specifically referring to she/he/they but like. man. i dont want to go through and select every single pronoun.

and even then like,, pronouns are an extremely fluid form of language. theres literally pronouns being coined every other day on Tumblr Dot Com. knowing this it feels strange to restrict what people can and cant use. its like forcing people to choose a name from 25 of the most common ones and being like “we’ll add more later we promise”

its effectively constructing new boxes to stick people in because Corporations Are Fundamentally Opposed To Queerness. idk maybe im overreacting i just absolutely do not trust this.

#this feels like the beginning of widespread corporate sanitizing of transness #esp with bangers like #“THE PRONOUNS FEATURE IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR WORKSPACE OR SUPERVISED ACCOUNTS” #and #“WE ARE PERIODICALLY REVIEWING PRONOUNS WHICH MAY BECOME AVAILABLE IN THE FUTURE” #and then theres the bit where they’re VERY cheeky about anti-trans legislation #“some jurisdictions have laws related to gender expression :)” i will rip you to shreds you soulless beast #like yeah this is overall a good thing…but im not liking the implications here #not wc #swapper screeches #ask to tag
