I take every single opportunity to project my sensory issues/neurodivergence on every character with perpetual headphones- Nino included.

Some headcanons about the main 5 and their persona changes under the cut!

Each protag has something that changes when they're in either one of their personas.

The main two's are obvious and fairly cloae to canon but the other three are a little bit different since they pertain a lot to this AU'S headcanons.

- Marinette's biggest is her confidence and decision making that doesnt always come through in her civilian form.

-Adrien's is his carefree attitude and agency that he doesn't have in his everyday life.

The more headcanony ones:

- Alya is always mediating between her older sister, parents, and little siblings. With her older sister and dad butting heads a lot, and the twins being the pranksters they are, Alya's patient and calm front to the situations helps keep everything under control. Constantly emotionally aware and trying to monitor everyone's moods, but doesn't abuse the influence she has in her family. D O E S however manipulate the FUCK out of her enemies when transformed. Makes the trickster part of her miraculous proud.

Also does gentle parent her teammates when there's a dispute. Only Carapace has noticed.

- Chloe in this AU is like Jane Austen's "Emma": constantly helping her dad keep things in order. Has been the one honestly running the hotel business since she was 10, at least in every aspect but on paper. She sees her dad and his bouts of depression, and tries her best to ease his workload at home at least. She's not perfect, but she's trying. As class president, she tries to please everyone and lead with a firm, but fair, hand. In comparison to the busy mayor's daughter who's tried her best to clean up her image and ebb her temper, Queen Bee is a harsh critic. Chloe feels her emotions much more freely when transformed, and is the most willing of her teammates to do the dirty work that needs to get done.

- Nino's grew up entertaining his brother while their mom would work late, taking on a more upbeat attitude longer than he would actually be comfortable with. This behavior moved into school too, where he got into habit of pushing his social battery past what it should while trying to make everyone comfortable. Doesn't mask as much with the class and his main friend group, and always puts his headphones on as a "do not disturb sign" that everyone in class respects. Carapace is the complete opposite. Since there's no need for a social buffer between the heroes and Carapace was the last to join and was welcomed warmly- Nino stays mute/speaking when necessary and has his gear help buffer his senses. Incredibly observant since he's not draining himself, and is the best defense and tank the team could ask for.

Headcanon that tumblr is an scp and the only way to contain it is having class d personel inject it with dummy code every now and then

What would be the consequences of making Adrien a natural brunet-

Been trying to refine what my main style is (what's most comfortable, what makes me the most happiest making and finishing etc.) and it's a little therapeutic thinking about what features in my art I really enjoy! (Oh thick lines, simple coloring, and stylization my beloveds...)

Anyways, here's some Bridgettes I practiced all that with! Trying to draw stuff that makes me happy, and she's helped. Hope you're all doing well, much love! ❤️

RC9GN 9RG Doodle dump from my last sketchbook! Don't try to decipher my shitty shorthand ass handwriting, I'm honestly posting it for my own reference since I won't have it on hand anymore 😭 Bonus picture of the Theresa doll I made! I wanna do a photoshoot for her and her cartoony puff paint eyebrows, but that'll be later 👍

IM ALIVE! First order of business in addressing some art i made in between my finals: made some screentone brushes on Procreate and tested them out by coloring (inking? Screentoning? Eh idk) a 9RG page I wasn't happy with the OG coloring on, and an old doodle from the early days of the AU's development! I'm really happy with these brushes and this style of comic coloring, so expect it to be a style staple 👍👍 More art to come, very excited!!!
