On May 10th, 2016, an anonymous user asked the Tumblr account imagine-miraculousladybug the following question: "imagine the miraculous users having their days numbered according to the animal/insect their miraculous represents. for example, marinette is expected to die 2-3 years after gaining her miraculous (i'M SORRY [or am i?])"
Mod Moon posted the ask, letting it roam free in the fandom wilds. This is what happened.
Hhhnnnngfsjjsj k, I put off reading this one for a LONG time (and I mean a L O N G time) because I’m scared of angst without a happy ending ;v;. And yeah, this is an angst fest but it’s also really well written. Basically a story about death, and grief, and choosing to make the most of the time you have left.

“Who are you? Where am I? Why can’t I remember-”
A sharp pain cut through her brain. She cradled her head, groaning. “You are here, you are an akuma, and you will fight when I call upon you. That is all you need to know,” the voice growled.
She grit her teeth. She hated this guy already.
Permanently Akumatized AU. Instead of being freed after an akuma battle, the akumas are transported to a warehouse to await Hawkmoth's call again. They have amnesia, not remembering who they were, or even that they WERE someone else before, often. They also can't leave the warehouse without the akuma in their heads, without Hawkmoth's compulsions forcing them back inside, or resist battling the heroes for long before, again, the compulsions force them into it.
Unfortunately for Hawkmoth, Lady Wifi isn't going to meekly accept orders.
Alya-centric story, basically what it says on the tin. Very cool and interesting idea (inspired by disconnected). I’ve seen a few takes on “permanently akumatized” AUs that have been really fun but I really like where this one is taking things with the amnesia and the warehouse, as well as with the Akuma’s families and Paris media response.
