I love your miraculous gambit au so much.

What inspired the original concept for it? Was it a “hey this would be fun” or was there a specific point in time or something that triggered the idea?

The fact we were on season 4 and they had yet to use Nath or Marc for anything KAKAKSKS

I begun making it prior to Penalteam and even Hack-San airing, Marcaniel had literally nothing going on because miraculous hated giving side characters any plot. Every time they showed up again I'd feel compelled to come back and readjust the AU a bit (after Hack-San i made their relationship more ambiguous, and then Penalteam changed how I write Marc, etc). But I only started actually working on it when the Ruler was out because FINALLY I have something to go off, since I like using actual canon elements to build upon.

I was more on the unfun miraculous salt side of the fandom at that time (s4) so it definitely was born out of a "I can do better than the show" spite mentality and I used Marcaniel because I liked them. But now it's me riffing on the show's not-build-on ideas and having fun with it and Marcaniel's still kinda uncooked characters and everyone else.

I'm also like, a massive fan of Kwami swap aus. If you look through my blog a little you'll see me keeping up with like, 10 of them. I just think they're neat.

Extra funfact, it's not my only Kwami swap au. I also have a Julerose one for the same reason, I just never got too far into it to get posting. S4 during airing felt like nothing was happening so I was making my own entertainment, an awful awful time. It's one where Jagged Stone is hawkmoth and all akumas are based on songs and they're more magical girl aligned. Maybe I will bring it here someday idk,,,

#So much original au notes lost when my old phone broke. I don't remember half of it 💔#Except that I fully predict Nathaniel's family dynamic and you will just have to believe me #It's an au that was dormant until I felt was the right time skkdkd #Part of it was always feeling like I wasn't able to start due to me not being good enough #miraculous gambit au #cb asks

Still one of the best animations I've ever done. Took just under a week and was equal parts fun and challenging. So here are some process passes! The full version had too many colors so I had to do some compression T0T

As always, no ai.

Out of curiosity, how does Chloe deliver the Miraculous in the Vswap? Because I can't imagine her being even half as professional as Marinette.

roughly like this.

i imagine she just yoinks whoever she thinks would be good with a miraculous, throws it in their face, and lets them go ham. she's kinda stupid like that.
