mlp au! miraculous ladybug side and not-so-side characters
based on @frostedpuffs's mlp au. old art, ok?
she has a masters in cuntology from the university of servington
So Nadja has her own show now at a different news network? Or is this more of a "solo youtube channel" type thing? Either way, I wish her well, she's run into trouble from her superiors a few times at this point.
Retreat!

✨Fairy Misunderstood AU - Chapter Guide🧚🏼♀️✨

BONUS:
Given that the Love Square (TM) is already resolved in the Kwami Swap AU, does that mean Kamagi and Luka's contribution to the romantic mess is completely ruled out? I also wonder if this completely prevents Prime Queen's akuma or if it would give it a different motivation.
Yeah, Kagami and Luka aren't really an issue romantically speaking in this story.
There is a small period where Adrien keeps his relationship with marinette a secret from his dad because he's(completely fairly) worried his dad will dissaprove and interfere. This culminates in his dad and Madam Tsurugi trying to set Kagami and him up. Which, to his credit, causes Adrien to immediatly come clean to Kagami about his relationship with Marinette.
They don't immediatly tell their parents, and Kagami basically uses Adrien as a screen to keep her mom off her back for a bit. But it really is only for like, a few months at most?
This does lead to like, a really funny series of dates between Adrien and Marinette where Kagami is just... there. Quietly hanging out. Which you think would be a massive vibe killer, but Chloe has crashed like, half of their dates before, and Kagami is a hell of a lot less of a problem than Chloe.
The fake relationship ironically is how Kagami integrates into the friend group, and she ultimately considers the "relationship" a net win, because she gets a lot of friends out of the whole thing. Kagami really finds that she likes just, vibing around people with a lot higher energy than her, so you'll often see Kagami just, casually around more high energy people quietly sipping her juice. Chloe and Sabrina, Adrien and Marinette, Alix and kim and their little group, Julleka and Rose, etc.
Kagami is like, the designated third wheel, and is really, really fucking good at it. Basically, by the time the class as a whole is on good terms with Kagami, they're all more or less very used to her just... showing up on other peoples dates. And it is universally agreed that this improves the quality of dates or even just casual hangouts quite a bit.
So....yeah. That's the Kagami shenanigans, Kagami is There TM, and that is just that. I do have ideas for actual pairings for Kagami, but I'm still deciding on that.
I will say that Kagami and Adrien drop the dating shenanigans the moment that Kagami has a partner, because the big thing about the fake relationship was to stop Madam Tsurugi just... matching her with successively dumber people.
So, you do get some of the mandatory relationship weirdness in Miraculous.
As for Luka, he never has any kind of relationship stuff with Marinette. He meets them after they started dating, or very close to it, and immediatly tells them that he "adores their duet" and absolutely would not ever do anything to break that up. If anything, Luka is a heavy Adrienette shipper. This is his favorite song. The longer these two play together, the better each individual song of their souls gets, and when together, they make something breathtaking.
Translated: They are making each other better, and he finds their relationship extremely cute and healthy and he will be fighting anyone who messes with it. Luka would absolutely throw proverbial hands with Lila. He's mostly a pascifist, but Lila can try him to see how far that goes if she touches Adriens arm one more time.
So, Luka is just a very supportive friend. He likes the duo, and he likes having them around. But there's no romance anywhere in there.
As for Prime Queen, this probably will still happen, but for different reasons.
I think I've mentioned before that Lady Noir does not like talking to the media? Well, she doesn't like it when Mr. Bug does it, either. Mainly, because she sees it as an unnecessary security risk. Mr. Bug doing a televised, pre-planned interview is crazy dangerous, because hawkmoth will know where they Ladybug Miraculous will be. She's actively thwarted and denied basically any interview with any news station, and has only done very, very brief interviews on the spot of an akuma. And that's generally only at Adriens insistence, or when Lady Noir needs to stall so Mr. Bug can comfort the Akumatized victim(they take turns).
Nadja Chammack gets fed up with the constant run around and, under extreme pressure from her producer to get SOMETHING, gets akumatized.
They basically distract Nadja by revealing that they're dating(not a trick) to get her akumatized object. As a solution to this later on, Adrien officially declares Alya the only reporter they'll give interviews too. Despite Alya being not super pro the heroes, which is actually why Adrien chooses her. She's very, very neutral, and dedicated to publishing only the exact truth of what she experiences and discovers. She might not fully approve of them, but you better believe she will report honestly and without bias, on anything they tell her.
And yeah, that's about it for this! Had a bit more detail than I thought I would, honestly.
Reaction to “Noe” (S6, E16)
Is it just me, or are we getting more “beach” episodes since the Miracuclass aged up a bit? Then again, this series has spanned ten years IRL, and many of the kids who watched it from the beginning are now teenagers themselves.
All Adrien and Marinette want is to be themselves and to be together. But Adrien’s “legacy” and Marinette’s Big Secret never let them stay happy for long.
Mylène makes for an unlikely influencer. Remember how back in the “Horrificator” ep in season 1, she couldn’t even get through the rehearsals for a middle-school student film? Mylène’s done some growing up herself over the years.
What precisely does the Kingdom have against a healthy, happy, educated, and equitable Paris? Allow me to suggest a theory. In the Shadyverse depicted in the Paris special, the whole world is controlled by “the Supreme”, to whom Gabriel once owed fealty but ultimately betrayed. The Kingdom is seeking world domination as well, by means of the Miraculous. But in this universe as well, Gabriel betrayed them so he could use the Miraculous for his own ends. And the idea of Mayor Bustier offering her city as a vision of the future, a future the Kingdom doesn’t control, is unacceptable.
Manon isn’t well-liked in the fandom, but perhaps it’s because she reminds them too much of themselves: a relentless shipper who doesn’t know when to shut up.
Based on Nathalie’s reaction to Noe’s offer, she wanted to tear up the paperwork and shove it down the guy’s throat. But she didn’t, because she wants whatever Adrien wants. And yet Nathalie’s apparent disapproval was enough to give Adrien pause. Also, the Gabriel brand is one of the last connections Adrien has to his father, regardless of how the company dictated his life in the past.
Observant viewers will note that Mylène has prepared vegetarian dinners for two. Additionally, they’ll read between the lines and realize Mylène’s mother has passed, making her one of three Miraculers with a deceased parent and the only one who didn’t die from Miraculous-wish disease. (Not even “Yaksi Gozen” covered what happened to Kagami’s father, nor do we have any in-show intel on what happened to the mothers of Alix, Ivan, Kim, or Sabrina, or on Max’s dad.) Perhaps Ivan’s mother is also dead, and his and Mylène’s mutual grief helped bind them together?
Fred’s situation is what happens when you look at the money and sign your name to something before reading all the documentation. Josiane (renamed from “Sarah” since her first appearance) did the same thing, as we’ll see later.
Noe is obviously working at the Kingdom’s behest, and his goal is equally transparent: sowing enough controversy and “debate” about ML and CN’s role in defeating Hawkmoth to make people lose trust in them, therefore destabilizing Mayor Bustier’s placid and perfect city. The allegations leveled against Mayor Bustier by the new “fair and balanced” TVi serve the same end. (Sadly, this plotline is another one ripped from the headlines.) This gambit is reminiscent of how Vincent Asa’s social media channel nearly sabotaged Marinette and Adrien’s relationship… coincidence?
Here it is, folks: the shot that’s been on your Tumblr feed since the trailer dropped… and probably your cellphone wallpaper as well.
Shit, Manon, isn’t there a Parcheesi set or an electrical outlet you can play with?!?
I really thought we were gonna see a Miraculer get akumatized this time. I’m glad we didn’t, but I’m still waiting for the butterfly to land. Mylène does, however, join the list of Miraculers who ended up fighting their own possessed parents (full list: Adrien, Ivan, Juleka, Kagami, Marinette, Max, Nathaniel, and Sabrina).
The return of the Mime raises the question of whether violent vigilante justice is an appropriate reaction to seemingly untouchable heads of maleficent corporations. This program posits the idea that it isn’t necessary as long as we have a financially and ideologically independent press that publicly confronts people who abuse their power. It’s a lesson Nadja took to heart, launching her own podcast to counter the narrative of her old network, which can no longer be trusted as long as Noe Luxsus owns it.
There’s a trend among akumatized villains to obscure their objects of power in places hard to find or easily overlooked. The Watsonian explanation is that Chrysalis is spreading her wings, finding new ways to wreak havoc. The Doylist counterpart is that the writers are themselves innovating to avoid repeating plots, a perpetual hazard of the “Monster of the Week” trope. ML and CN can still get the job done; they just have to work a little harder at it.
This show already has three pairs of superhero lovebirds who know each other’s identities… how long before there’s a fourth?
Between “Wreckless Driver” and this ep, Polymouse has been in the forefront lately. Involving a hero who specializes in multiple approaches to complex problems provides a subtle commentary on how we can fight the forces of “fake news” and misinformation. Specifically, the solutions will come from responsible journalists willing to defy the people writing their paychecks, an educated public that demands and seeks out responsible reporting, media companies that monitor and moderate their own content (however reluctantly), and everybody just calming the hell down and thinking about the implications of their actions.
Fred Haprèle gives his finest performance yet, not as a mime, but as himself. If you didn’t get chills from his warning to Noe about remembering who saved him from the Mime’s wrath, check yourself for a pulse.
I had this nagging feeling that Noe looked familiar, and at the end of the episode, we get it. My compliments to Audrey Bourgeois on keeping her figure after three kids, one of whom has reached the age of majority. Her possible involvement with Gabriel and Tomoe's plot has been teased before--refer to the end of the "Feast" episode, where she's shown taking particular interest in the reappearance of the Guardian's Temple. The only question left is whether Audrey is the new Diamond, or if it’s Noe acting on her behalf to engineer a betrayal of her own.
Marinette Dupain-Cheng, Girlfriend of Ladybug
Summary: During another invasive interview pushing her towards Chat Noir, Ladybug panics and claims that she’s dating someone. Who? Oh, just her civilian identity. Dominos unexpectedly topple.
Ko-Fi
-_-
It was a heat of the moment thing.
Ladybug really couldn’t blame herself. Well, technically she could, considering she had agreed to another hour-long interview with Nadja and Chat Noir. Where, of course, the topic inevitably turned back to the nonexistent romantic relationship between her and her partner, not helped at all by the fact that Chat kept egging it on and nobody seemed to notice or care about her discomfort. The moment Alya appeared on screen and asked “So when are you going to admit your feelings for each other?”
guys, if Nadja is part of The Kingdom, I don't know what ML adult I'll be able to trust anymore
edit: she was fired
edit: she started a podcast instead
