"My name is Marion, kinda a regular guy like most others. But there's this thing called Destiny and when it calls for me to face the forces of evil... I Become... ... Miraculous Ladybug. Yeah, I know. Stop laughing." -| SIDEBLOG |- | Tracking: luckybugged |
That’s what he heard as people moved to the scene, a low murmur all around him as he tried not to really think about it and moved forward. Perhaps he had lain far too low after the horror of the executions. But... really... He’d recently lost his parents... six months ago..., moved across the world, tried to get to know people and his cousins, trying to... he didn’t even know.
So, could he really be blamed for wanting to stay out of things? To be... well... to try not getting sick like the others? He’s not used to having responsibilities or being around family, didn’t quite know how to talk to them yet.
But then he got there, heard the scream... and stopped when he reached the sight that had risen that indistinct wail.
Oh...
Oh no...
Nikki...
He paused, quickly looking around and moving trying to find--
Oh...
Then he backed away, catching sight of his other cousin and...
Huh? What--
Nevermind.
He turned, moving back and away. He didn’t really know... anything. What to say or do. He’d messed up. He hadn’t... been around. If he had maybe he wouldn’t be the last Cheng in this screwed up park and its messed up bear-warden.
Death of family members isn’t new to him...
... but death when he maybe could have prevented it in some shape or form was.
“What am I going to tell their parents...?”
He mumbled to himself, smacking the side of his head before he sat hard on the ground and tried not to hate his own behavior too much.
If any of us can even get out of here without dying first...
Ok, so that failed. But I have been kinda busy and distracted.
Nikki though--
Reaction time--
and figuring out how to handle this version of marion since still figuring out how he knows the other miraculous people and everything. Rule63versionsturnedcousinsishard
Ah, but anyway-- I have some starters for the last starter call to do, would anyone else like one outside those four?
* Marion is a Cousin to Marinette & Nikki on their Mother’s Side. He lost both his parents in a horrible accident about six months prior to his vacation to Disney and ended up staying with the Dupain-Chengs due to still being under the general age range where most people end up moving from home and living on their own.
* He was around 17 at the time of his parent’s accident. So he may be about 18 now though he doesn’t know it.
* He has a keen interest in designing, not unlike his cousin but he focuses more on male clothing and can’t really create any decent accessories or female clothes. He also sketches a number of other things as a hobby.
Abilities & Miraculous aspects:
* He’d recently received a Miraculous in his home country prior to his parents accident.
* He knows what it is, who his kwami is, what he likes, and his transformation phrase but he had not actually gotten a chance to use it before his vacation that landed him in Disney.
* His Miraculous, Kwami, & Suit is modeled after an Eastern Coyote, which can be summarized down to being kind of a hybrid canine that has a mix of both Wolf and Coyote blood.
* His two abilities are currently unknown. And this’ll be updated to include them later on if he does happen to figure out what they are while in the ‘happy’ amusement park full of death, despair, and murder.
* His ‘weapon’ is also unknown till he actually transforms. Which will have this updated once that happens as well.
* His Miraculous’ Appearance is a Braided Leather Bracelet that holds a few small decorations consisting of two brown and white speckled feathers, two stripes of beaded leather, and a single coyote fang hanging between them all.
Rules & Other Stuff:
* This is a Sideblog, My Mainblog is located at @badlcked
* I will rp with both mutuals & non-mutuals (mutual would be done via follows from the above blog) as long as you’re in the DPOE Group Verse!
* I have a couple of blogs in this verse atm but my most active one is prolly my nico di angelo blog but I will be attempting to be as active as I possibly can here as well. I just ask you guys to be patient with me!
* I’ll warn that I may drop some threads randomly if the ‘story’ progresses onwards with trails and new chapters or situations but I’ll do my best to try to reply to what I can.
*** I just ask you guys to forgive me if / when it happens orz. I have ADD & tend to lose my train of thoughts in a thread or might move on to a different topic or situation because my attention and ability to focus on things for a long period of time varies more often than not.
Just making my contact stuff and fleshing out the verse I’m gonna be using here.
Eastern Coyote Miraculous, Cousin to Marinette and Nikki!
Extra note, this is a sideblog so any follows/likes for starters will be coming through my main, @badlcked. Will be sure to ‘reply’ and let you guys know it’s coming from this blog though.
⊰Yeah no, this used to be my room that I shared with my sister and adopted brother.⊱
╰ ☘ ╮She replied rolling her eyes at the other, not really looking at the actual furniture. Or the fact that the bunk bed wasn’t there among other things and the colors were completely wrong. But she knew and found the first aid kit and that was good enough for her. Besides she’s been coming in through that skylight for a few years now and she knew that this was her house. But then Nicolette raised an eyebrow, she knew that Adrien wasn’t a girl’s name because it wasn’t. Chepi was getting really irritated with this conversation, she thought that Nicolette was usually a smart pup but that wasn’t the case right now. The kwami sighed already figuring out what must have happened as she flew out from underneath Nicolette’s hair.
“Nicolette Dupain-Cheng stop acting like a pup. Get that cut tended to while I go talk to Tikki. Clearly that portal that we got thrown into put us into a different timeline.”
⊰I… we what?⊱
╰ ☘ ╮Was all that Nicolette could respond with, she was never expecting that kind of reaction from her kwami. But she knew that Chepi made a point as she moved her shirt from covering her chest to over the bleeding wound. She guessed that she should be thankful that she wore a sports bra so it could be a lot worse.
⊰Yeah… help would be good. Akuma of the day got be fairly good and the Miraculous Cure only boosts my healing factor so it still needs to get patched up and it’s my good arm too. ⊱
He paused, blinking before he shook his head. Okay, this is really crazy but whatever. He’s not going to think about it.
“Tikki should be near the bed, pretty sure she’s either sleeping in her stocking-bed-thing or digging into the cookies near it.”
He sighed and ran a hand through his hair but at the very least he’s not yelling or running around in confusion so he marks it as an achievement.
“So the cure doesn’t always help?”
Marion frowned a little and hoped Chat wasn’t lying when she says that the cure fixes her up just fine. Sure, he knows it doesn’t really work on him outside the booted healing either but he’d hoped...
He’ll have to ask her about it later.
“Ah, nevermind. I know it doesn’t work perfect on me but Chat says it always works on her just fine.” He muttered and groaned a little before he turned his focus to the girl’s injuries instead.
“Who are you by the way? Since your kwami said you jumped a timeline or something... it’s better to know names right? I’m Marion Dupain-Cheng. Resident Ladybug.” Kinda obvious since he has Tikki but eh, details. He glanced over her arm, all focus going to that and ignoring the fact she’s in a sports bra, though he’s not a perverse guy anyway.
He wouldn’t be weird.
He moved and went through the usual stuff to patch things up, taking care to make sure it’s all tied up but still breathable and not cutting the circulation in her arm.
Nicolette cried out as her embarrassment outweighed the bleeding injury. She held her shirt to cover her chest but the other probably already saw all of the various Akuma caused scars. No one really knew how badly she’s gotten injured in fights outside of Teddie and her older siblings. But that was a different story as she looked at this complete stranger in her bedroom.
The first aid kit was sticking out from beside her as she could feel Chepi urging her to get herself patched up from underneath her slightly messy hair. But she wasn’t going to drop her shirt until this guy left. She wouldn’t have cared if it was Adrien or Teddie since they’ve seen her like this before or patched up some wounds on her back before. She felt the blood trickling down her arm and her wounds were protesting again.
“Mom and dad know not to let anyone up here that isn’t Marinette, Adrien or Teddie so who are you?”
She asked as her Miraculous was visible on top of the shirt. But it was just a dark grey color since she wasn’t transformed. Then the thought came across her mind, did this complete stranger see her transform back? She knew that then circle of people that know is slowly growing but those people are people she trusts not some random guy in her room.
Marion began, motioning to the light blue walls and smattering of light blue notebooks mun the materials for varied male clothing projects. Though... he supposed with the lights off it possibly appeared a more dull grey-ish color but, it’s still pretty distinct to him.
He grimaced lightly at the images of Adrienne posted on his wall in the nearest corner before he sighed, shook his head and ran a hand through his hair.
“And two, I donno any of those people... though Adrien sounds pretty close to one of my classmates’ names it doesn’t sound like a girl’s name... unless Adrienne has a brother or something. But um... are you sure you’re in the right house...?”
He did pause at the sight of the blood over her arm though the miraculous escaped his notice as he’d gotten here a few beats after.
“But before that... err, I can offer to help? I promise I’m not going to do anything, I have a little sister and I help her with scrapes and scratches she might sometimes gather and you kind of look like her so... offering.”
Plus he’s patched up his own numerous injuries from past battles... and had help with ones he couldn’t reach... but he’s not about to say anything about that and he hoped Tikki stayed hidden.
Turning her attention to where Marion laid, she frowned. This wasn’t fair. She tried her hardest to scare him and it still ended up with her failing. Pouting, she moved and took a seat on the floor at the end of the bed. “Sometimes I wonder why I even try.” She spoke out pouting. She knew she needed to scare him at least once.
“Haha, yeah. My job just placed me here, so I’m doing my best to adjust.” Yosuke grinned at the native, realizing this might be the perfect chance to get his barrings.
“And… actually? I was wondering about those Akuma things people keep on mentioning. They’re not actually demons, right? Haha…”
Hmm... so this guy heard about those... well. He supposed it’d be better that visitors are warned about the attacks at least.
“Ahh... well. Um. No one really knows what the Akama are. We just know they come from a villain’s power. So I don’t think they’d really be rightfully described as ‘demons’ persay... just a manifestation of dark energy? I don’t really know.”
He actually does... like he has a pretty clear idea since he’s the one that purifies them... but... no one knows that nor are they supposed to, so...
╰ ☘ ╮Vixen was returning back to the bakery from the Akuma attack of the day, holding her left arm. She knew that her suit prevented the nasty cut that she got during the fight from bleeding or getting infected but she also knew that she couldn’t stay transformed the enitre time. She dropped back in through the skylight just like old times landing softly on the bed and jumping down. She transformed back as soon as she was on the ground and quickly ditched her shirt. She hissed in pain as she looked at the gash that started bleeding again. She was in a black sports bra as she went to go to where she kept the first aid kit. Grateful that her parents really didn’t touch their room even after they moved out. She was about to start tending to her wound when Nicolette looked up and saw that she wasn’t alone. There was a guy standing by the trap door and more importantly that wasn’t Adrien and she was half dressed.
⊰WHAT THE HELL?⊱
╰ ☘ ╮Was all that she could think of trying to cover herself up as Chepi hid, her injury temporarily forgotten.
Marion hadn’t known quite what to expect. He’d heard a thud come from his room and was thankful both his parents and sister were out at the moment as he’s certain the thuding noise could only be one person... his blonde partner and steady friend.
He’s really no stranger to her random visits after all and expects them regularly.
So... when he climbed up and out of the trapdoor with a select bag of pastries and some homework he was working on while minding the shop... he did not expect to see the girl with blueish hair as opposed to chat’s blonde standing there in the middle of his room.
Especially not fully dressed...
Um...
So honestly, who could have expected anything else but the one statement/obvious observation to fall from his lips?
Cue Tikki sneaking up behind the male. She was going to scare him this time. Even though, she was short and she messed up all the time. Grinning, she peaked around a corner to find the male but frowned. Where was he? It shouldn’t be that hard to find him.
