Gotsuki found it a cruel joke that she was still breathing however heavily. Her body laid in an alley way dressed in leftover circus rags with her eyes glazed over, her head lolling to her right listlessly. Hunger, thirst and exhaustion shackled her body to the ground after just a day or two on the run from the boys in blue.
Nobody passing by so much as paid her any mind. If they did, they'd quickly ignore her. The only one paying any mind to her was Mezu, her baby sister, crawling up to her face and making unintelligable noises as if asking what's wrong. Seeing her innocent face made Gotsuki a touch less concerned with her own well-being.
It wasn't just her suffering for her crime of passion. She was dragging an innocent baby down with her, a child with her whole life ahead of her. Either she'd starve in the alley or she'd be swept up to live with a guardian, one potentially as cruel as Mr. J. But... what could she even do about it?
"Was this... the same... for you... mommy?" Gotsuki croaked out of her dry throat. Was her mother too impoverished to take care of her first daughter? For as much as Gotsuki still hated her mother... was she not in a similar situation? On she created for herself?
Why did she let her rage consume her, Gotsuki berated herself for. Why couldn't she've confronted her mother at the bus stop? It would've been ugly but... surely better than this.
But thinking in "what ifs" was all Gotsuki could do. What if mother didn't leave me behind? What if I wasn't stuck in the circus? What if I didn't... didn't... hurt her after she hurt me?
What if... a miracle just dropped out of the sky?
That was her exact delirious thought when something landing in her right palm. It was... a jewel. A violet broach with four petals around it like a flower. It snapped Gotsuki out of it with a rush of adrenaline, getting her to lift and sit herself up straight to see if it was real.
Holding the jewel in her hand, thoughts of pawning it off lasted but a second before it glowed bright. A glow so bright that it flew from the jewel and floated before Gotsuki's nose. Her malnourished state only allowed her to be shocked into stunned silence before the light manifested as a light violet blob floating in the air.
"Greetings, my name is Nooroo, Kwami of Transmission," he spoked cordially to the shocked Gotsuki. "Excuse my intrusion but I could not help but feel such despair in your heart."
"A Kwami?" Gotsuki croaked out. "I've heard of your kind... since I was little." Some of the memories she'd comfort herself with were stories her mother would tell her of fairy-like creatures that would help mortals in need, sharing their powers. "W-Why me?"
Nooroo gave Gotsuki a most empathetic look in the eye, so blank yet so unjudgemental. "I've known your kind of ordeal... robbed of love, of happiness, of any kind of stability by those who... never wanted you to begin with... or wanted you for their own ends."
Gotsuki looked back down at the jewel. What the legends called a Miraculous.
"The Moth Miraculous will allow you to sense the emotions emminating from those all around you and can harvest them to create a Champion loyal to your needs," Nooroo explained, getting her to look back up. "The stronger their feelings and desires, the more powerful they will be."
Gotsuki had considered that this was all a dream. A delusion she made for herself to cope with her horrid reality like she tried with the circus. Perhaps. But looking down at Mezu crawling and giggling on her lap made her remember why she even put herself in this situation. She could've slipped out of the house after wailing on her mother but... her sister's crying... was just like hers.
"Nooroo..." Gotsuki began, reciting the words she heard him say. "Dark Wings Rise..."
Though she didn't see her new form, she certainly felt the power. The enhancements to her natural strength alliviated at least most of her starvation. Setting Mezu aside, Gotsuki could feel it. The emotions of everyone within town, especially those closest to her when she closed her eyes to focus. This wasn't a dream. It was real. It had to be.
A moth suddenly fluttered down to her, one that had been eating at her rags. Holding out her hand, she let it land upon her palm and closed her fingers upon it. There was one emotional vibe that was strongest among the sea of people. Her own. Focusing her power, a violet glow eminated from her hand before she opened it up to reveal the moth.
From white to a dark-violet glow, the Akuma captivated Gotsuki like a desert traveller finding an oasis. "Dark Wing Fall," she declared, the power washing off of her before Nooroo popped out of her Miraculous. "Will I be able to give myself any power I require?" She sunk to her knees from her returning starvation.
"It will be the means to your motivation," Nooroo promised. "You'll retain your memories after you let go of the power so long as you have the Miraculous on you. This way I can guide you myself. That's as much power as I can exercise outside my jewel. But you must be sure of your intentions above all else."
Gotsuki looked down at Mezu crawling back onto her lap and met the baby's smile with a steely frown. "I swore that my sister would never suffer for my sins, that she's never suffer the life I was curse with." She imbued the Akuma in her scarf, turning it black. "I have never been more sure in my entire life."
A dark violet ooze engulfed her body, taking her thoughts and desire to transform it into a tangible force. Into the power she’d been denied for all her life.

This would be the start of my Miraculous AU for TOOBOE’s lore. Gotsuki would use her powers to provide for her sister and maybe seek leads on Tikki and Plagg in Momo Town. She’d keep it secret from Mezu as she hopes to
not tempt her sister with her power.
But when her ambition grows, who will be there to de-evilize the Akumas?
A thought that has been weighing on me for a while is that a group of four people could be in person talking about John Vocaloid and thinking of completely different people:
A generic vocal synth, an anyman
John, the producer behind songs like Meteor. Notably not the one from TOOBOE
John, the producer behind songs like Shunran. Notably the one from TOOBOE
jon-YAKIATORY, the producer behind songs like Chaos Boogie. Notably the one who becomes obvious when typed out, hence the “in person” part
