Yep!
In the original version, Marinette was relentlessly pursuing “Felix”, who I’m guessing was probably way too introverted and easily annoyed to give her the time of day, lmao. Here’s concept art of him getting creative with his powers to avoid her:
On the flip side, when he got the ring containing his powers, it got stuck, forcing him to be a super hero (and I’m guessing giving him perma bad luck.) he learns the only way to get it off is to kiss Ladybug, and starts to woo her... before falling for her for real. Ladybug is having none of it.
Ultimately, Marinette was over the top and vaguely creepy and Felix was an ass. But the assumed dramatic shift in relationship dynamics would have been a lot of fun, and it was deliciously ironic, lmao.
