Still on a Bugettes au kick, decided to dabble into ideas of the rainbow fairies (working off that for the Bugettes, they were known as fairies; which hey, if kwamis appear, this way the bugs can be their own thing). For the canon bugs, expect some slightly altered personalities, and changed up lore set up to work off this concept (like this is Europe's magical beings that make heroes).
Btw, all of these will work off Tikki's base concept art, as she's the easiest to do edits on.

Rainbow Fairies: Tikki the Red Ladybug
Tikki is warm, affectionate, optimistic, determined, and brave. Tied to the color red, she is the embodiment of love and war, echoing red as a color of love and passion, and as a color of power, aggression, strength, and action.
She thrives off a natural love for humans, seeking that they are happy and safe and thriving, and is a huge romantic, excited to see unions made through genuine love and how powerful that love can be. Which, out of all fairies, she's the most invested in the romantic relationships in humans, and is known to be a little bit of a matchmaker, which has made her to be quite meddling. She does hold a belief that to love is to thrive and live at the fullest (not always romantically but it's what she's most invested in).
Tikki though also works off an agenda of war, working off the aggression of red; she seeks to dominate against disorder and the return of peace, either through tactical brilliance or brutal physicality, Tikki will provide and see it done. She stands as the shield to danger and chaos, and will uphold the peace and happiness of humans. Any that disrupt it will gain her ire and karma, some swift, some a slow build to devastation.
Tikki likes to encourage her humans to be bold and ready to take risks, live with integrity, and with love and faith. To be ready to fight for others and value their happiness, to be selfless in their actions. To work independently, with courage and quick wit. If her humans work with others, she pushes them to be leaders, just to make sure things will work out as they should, for Tikki wants her humans to win, to succeed no matter what, for peace has to be restored. Otherwise she'd rather her humans work solo, as others can be unpredictable and throw off any plans, and that can lead to loss.
When picking a human to grant her power to, Tikki prefers a ready to go hero. Someone full of passion and bravery, with a compassionate heart, with a sharp mind and strong sense of justice. She often looks for those who can be independent, for often the Ladybug flies alone and sometimes it's better to fly alone. As Tikki is more interested in being an active guardian, she's not really looking for someone to mentor and guide. She will uplift, advise, and encourage as need be, and will call out what she doesn't like, but she's not here to teach or make improvements. She seeks a human that will get the job done, that will succeed and win, for that matters to Tikki a lot.
