Gamer: Dammit, Robostus!

Robostus: What?! It wasn’t me!

Gamer: Sorry, force of habit. Dammit, Evillustrator!

Evillustrator: Not me either.

Gamer: Oh...Then who set the house on fire?

Stormy Weather: *whistles*

yknow what would be cool that Astruc would never do. Bring back Robustus and give Markov a REASON to want to help hawkmoth. Perhaps the episode sets up him realizing being a robot (no matter how advanced) means he WILL be treated differently, as if he's just a few lines of code without any thoughts of his own. Bonus if that's just half of it and the other half of it is Markov being forced to adhere to human gender while he's just like "but I'm not???"

Perhaps hawkmoth so generously offers him a miraculous and the builds a vaguely humanoid body (he's not as advanced as Aeon, but he's got like 6 fingers and can climb buildings or smth, really strong metal legs that let him leap across streets) and he goes along with it because deep down he wants to be treated like anyone else, to treated as if he was just some remote-control drone with a microwave camera. Perhaps he's so scary like this is because his voice sounds more like that male Siri rather than how it used to. Nobody knows who he is until he and max meet and his defenses are lowered, he loses and has to flee the first battle and they realize.

And the episode is about realizing he just wants people to respect him as an equal. He doesn't want to be treated any better or worse. Max notices it first, and it forces ladybug and chat noir to realize that unintentionally they've been playing favorites with not only one another but with everyone. It also forces them to realize Chloe may be mean sometimes, but part of that is the fault of her absent mother and her father who had no idea how to raise her properly but did his best.

The episode ends with Markov being de-akumatized and crying because it was the most like him, he'd ever felt in his life. (I mean the wiki says he has no gender so like, nb he/him robot) and the group consoling him because he's not a bad person for being akumatized, and it forces them to take the stakes more seriously and to try to combat the problem at the source. They now realize they need to find out why people are being akumatized and helping them deal with the underlying problem. (I.E Markov and the curse of being forced into human gender roles, Chloe and having to come to terms with her family and having to understand that while she's been rude, she can turn around and be a better person, but part of these issues stem from her family life/abandonment issues.)

Thank you for reading this I have a lot of thoughts about Markov since I love robots and am also NB (and autistic which I like to think Markov is also autistic <3)

Honestly, that all sounds a lot better than what we got in “Hack-San”. Maybe Gabriel could have tricked Max by offering him an internship at his company so he’d get a chance to talk to Markov.

Hi. Take into consideration that Markov knows where Hawkmoth is in Robostus. He never tells anyone...

I mean there is the flashdrive so i guess maybe that deleted it

Imagine what people who don't know that Marinette is LB were thinking of in Robostus when she kicked akuma with a frying pan. Like you see this new chick being Ladybug, no her name is Scarabella now, and she and Chat Noir are captured and you're like "it was nice being alive, now this Hawkb*tch will rule the world" and then this little girl just shows up and kicks akuma's a$$ and you're like "what just happened???? Are we safe??? Who's this new Ladybug??? Who's this girl??? Is that Adrien Agreste's girlfriend from TV? Where is Adrien Agreste? Does he know that his girlfriend just defeated an akuma without superpowers? Was he so lazy that he didn't want to help her? Was he captured too? Will someone help Chat Noir take that bucket off of his head?"

Hey...

Robustus, but he is Mettaton EX.

Now suffer.

Welp, Ladybug and Chat noir are doomed
