Have you ever thought of what shadybug x adrien would be like?
Thank you so much for asking! Surprisingly I actually hadn't. I think because I was living in an AU world created in my head. Somehow I kept thinking of stories with Marinette transformed as "Lady Noir" (I call her Dark Paw) rather then "Shadybug".
But since you are asking, I think that since Marinette dislikes Adrien (at least in my head-canon), Shadybug would dislike Adrien too. That said I think being Shadybug would let her see a different side to Adrien, since Griffe Noire in turn dislikes Shadybug too. Untransformed, Adrien doesn't quite know how to interact with Marinette because he really likes her which makes their interactions quite awkward with lots of misunderstandings. But I think Shadybugs interactions with Adrien would be filled with much more heated dislike, which I think Shadybug (Marinette) would know how to deal with better. I could even imagine that she would miss that interaction in her daily life. The simplicity of it. I think for Mari, there is something freeing about telling people off and having someone equally give back in turn. She wouldn't have to put up a front or pretend. I could totally see Mari getting closer with Adrien as a result.

Anonymous, thank you so so much for asking this question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It lead to this stream of consciousness writing which was so fun!!! I can picture what their dynamic would be like so much more now! Thank you so so much ♡
Happy Holidays @staralignments @seroqueldreamer! I'm your Secret Santa this year for @mlsecretsanta
I hope you enjoy this LukAdriNiNette (˶ᵔᵕᵔ˶)>♡ I had so much fun drawing this mini story and hope you like it! I figured Marinette asked Luka to dye her hair and this is how she might end up with a punk look in our main universe.
Thank you for the tag, @dayochoco ♥ ---

Last song listened to:
I have these moments where I listen to one song on loop for the whole day. I'm currently listening to 'WayV 威神V 'Love Talk', 'Taemin 태민 'Guilty' and 'Jessica (제시카) and Amber Liu's - Get it? Got it? Good'
Currently watching: Mob Psycho Season 3
Guys I'm so late to this party, but Mob is so good!!!!!!!!!! I seriously just can't with this show, it's just so sweet! I absolutely love how Reigen recontextualizes how we all have worth and that it takes each of us to contribute to create a good society.
A lot of Shonen are about competition, wanting to be the best, as well as beating yourself up for not being enough. And while there are lots of mangas and animes that I love that use these tropes, I find Mob's take on how we can live life and our role in this world so refreshing and wonderful.
Currently reading: I'm reading a bunch of ML fanfics at the moment. Some of the ones that left a big impression on me were;
Tangled Ribbons (General Audience)
Come what May (Mature)
Call it Even (Teen and Up)
From the Ashes (Mature)
Satisfaction brought it Back (Explicit)
You'll be mine in the next life (Mature)
Currently obsessed with: Getting to know myself better
This may sound like a weird thing to be obsessed with, but when I was studying art, I felt so behind. Everyone was incredibly good at drawing and I felt that I had so much to learn and improve on. So rather than building a balanced lifestyle that included art as well as my other interests I found myself constantly thinking that if I had time for anything I should draw to get better. That really made me forget what was actually fun for me outside of drawing. I want to emphasize that I absolutely love drawing, but I think there is so much more to life than that. Especially as a creative person, we bring so many of our personal experiences into our art, so having an interest outside of art is incredibly valuable. So over the past three years, I've tried to really find answers to questions like "What truly brings me joy?" and "Who am I". Currently some of these things are reading and taking dance classes. Dance, in particular, has been instrumental in helping me escape the constant stream of thoughts in my mind. Like most artists, I experience moments of imposter syndrome, accompanied by unkind self-talk. However, dance serves as a powerful tool to ground me in the present moment. The music fills my head, drowning out the negative voices and allowing me to fully immerse myself in the joy of movement ✧✦✧ Tags @noehaddock @sabertoothwalrus @saytr @beybuniki @miraculouslylazybug @jascurka @lisaveeee @ladybeug @evriikas
AAHHHH!!!!! More silliness with these two cuties (,,> ᴗ <,,) ♥
Also Adrien grabbed Mari's hand because he wants to keep her safe, while she's thinking, 'Why is this guy touching me !?!?!'
Part 2 of this silly story line ^^ Up Next, Adrien is going to have a talk with Luka.... and we all know how good Adriens communication skills are lol. This is going to backfire for sure xD Part 0, Part 1 , Part 2, Part 3
Guuuys! Last night I was thinking about Mr Bug and Lady Noir in the Specialverse!!! I don't know what they would be called, but what about;
Gloom Bug's hair was inspired by "DNAngel's character Dark". I think Adrien would love this manga and would have been super upset that it never had an ending. So Gloom Bug is his version of bringing Dark to life ⸜(。˃ ᗜ ˂ )⸝ ♥ The incredible @noehaddock came up with the name Dark Paw and we brainstormed Gloom Bug together. Please send her lots of love because she's amazing!! ♥♥♥
I can't wait to see your versions of what you think they would be called and what they would look like!
Guys I don't know if you agree, but... Adrien would so be able to pull of Red Lipstick ♥♥♥
I just wanted to say that u have an incredibly delightful drawing style !! It makes me smile to see your art! It’s so fun and endearing, and you convey expressions so well
Writing stories for the MLB characters is so fun and trying to push their expressions is such a joy.
And hearing that you smile when you see my art makes me so happy, there is honestly nothing better then that! Thank you so so much for telling me (˶ᵔᵕᵔ˶)♡♡♡
squid game: mlb edition
Oh man, this is such a hard question! And also I don't want our characters to die T^T. But I will try to answer your question as best as I can. To win squid game, I was trying to consider a few things. One; what are the stakes for failing? Why are the characters entering squid game? Is it to protect someone? Because I think most of the characters would not want to harm or kill anyone under most circumstances.
Second I was trying to consider what each character's threshold for violence is. And then the question... is this like a battle royal, where all mlb characters are playing against each other? I know this is a hypothetical question, but the mlb characters are all so real to me that my stomach is in so much turmoil with this question. Squid game or battle royal would be such a horrible situation to put all of them in T^T.
But since you asked, I did some brainstorming and here is what I think. Apologies in advance, this got incredibly long lol
I didn't analyse all the characters, because what I wrote already got way out of hand xD
STRENGTH: Medium. She could hold her own, because of her Agility and smarts, but strength is not her top stat AGILITY & STEALTH: Medium-High. I know Mari is clumsy, but as a clumsy person myself I know that it ends up giving you amazing reflexes. Her stealth would be shit though lol EMOTION: I think Mari would be one of the last ones standing. Emotionally if her self righteousness kicks in, she would be able to go quite far. If Lila and her were in the running there would be no way she would let Lila win, and therefore might do things she normally would not do. If she is paired against a friend, she would hate herself for hurting someone she loves, but I could see her doing it under certain circumstances.
STRENGTH: High. You'd want Adrien on your side AGILITY & STEALTH: High. Would make it through red light green light game for sure. EMOTION: Would not make it till the end I think. Against some people he loves, like Nino I think he would be crying his eyes out, but I almost feel like Nino would give in first and let Adrien win. But if he was paired against Mari, I think he would choose not to act and sacrifice himself rather than live with the pain of having to hurt her.
STRENGTH: High. I think Alya would kick ass AGILITY & STEALTH: Medium/High. I think Alya's agility in her normal form is mediocre, but her stealth and smarts are off the chart. EMOTION: I think Alya has a High Moral Center. What I mean by that is that an outside goal would be more important then her internal wants. I do think Alya would get really far, but I think she would calculate the odds of the people left to see who would have a better chance of winning. If that turns out to be someone other than herself, then I think she would sacrifice herself for that goal.
STRENGTH: Mediocre. Somehow I feel like Alya is the stronger one of the two. AGILITY & STEALTH: Medium. I think Ninos agility is not that great, because I don't think he's led a life where he's been threatened a lot. He is such a chill dude that he's not used to reacting quickly. EMOTION: Similar to Adrien, I don't think Nino would make it to the end. I think he would fail before Adrien even. Against certain people Nino would choose not to act and let others win. I think he's someone that loves really deeply. I think he loves others more than himself.
STRENGTH: Low. I honestly was humming and hawing about this. We know Rose is sick, but does that mean she's not strong? Or does it mean she has low stamina? She could be working out in her spare time for all we know. But for this AU I felt like Rose doesn't hold Physical strength as a value. I think mentally Rose is a really strong character and could withstand quite a lot. AGILITY & STEALTH: Medium. Roses Physical condition is not the best, but I think she enjoys moving. EMOTION: I think if Rose could make it through some of the first stages and be paired with a strong team she could go really far. I think she has a certain sense of self righteousness that comes out at times, which could push her to do things she normally would not. The fact that Rose sings Hard Rock Metal makes me feel like there is a side in her that we don't often see. Similar to Alya Rose can see things with a larger perspective in mind and she would play a smart game. If that means she'd have to loose, she would choose to do so.
STRENGTH: Medium-High. I think Juleka is innately strong. I think her mom would ask her to do a lot of tasks on the boat and she would gain strength naturally. I think she's stronger then Mari, but not as strong as Alya. AGILITY & STEALTH: Low, Medium. Juleka is a bit slow to react. I think she's good at hiding because she doesn't really want to be seen, so she knows how to disappear EMOTION: I think Juleka would be one of the first people to go, mainly because she struggles with self worth. She doesn't actually see what a wonderful person she is, so she may just give up and feel like the world is better off without her T^T. I love how over the mlb seasons Juleka slowly gains confidence and started to love herself more ❤︎
STRENGTH: Medium. I know Chloé doesn't ever lift anything, but I have this feeling that she values strength and secretly works out. That said, she would pretend to be weak when it serves her. AGILITY & STEALTH: Low. I think Chloe never became very coordinated, even with the time she put into pretending to be Ladybug. EMOTION: I have a feeling that Chloe would be one of the earlier people to exit the game. I read before that one consistent measure of success is Grit. Grit is the drive to push on, even when faced with repeated adversity or failure. I don't thing Chloé has Grit, which would result in a lack of drive to push through till the end. I also think she feels alone a lot and I could see the night time sleeping arrangements really getting to her.
STRENGTH: High. I think Luka works out ❤︎ AGILITY & STEALTH: Medium to High. Luka is so in touch with emotions and can see things really clearly that I think he knows his body really well. EMOTION: I actually think Luka would be one of the first people to go. He's such an empathetical person that I don't think he would want to play. I think the only reason he would stay in is to help others make it through a game, but if it came to a one on one, I think he'd surrender. He also believes in others so deeply that I think that he would trust in the strength of his friends.
STRENGTH: Medium to High. I feel like she's stronger then Mari AGILITY & STEALTH: High. Lila has lots of hidden skills. I think agility and stealth are two of those. EMOTION: Even though I'm not a fan of Lila, I think she would do quite well in this game. She puts herself before others and is great at manipulating people. I think she's be one of the last ones standing.
This was so hard!!!! I honestly was second guessing myself a lot, especially with Chloé, Rose and Luka. Like, Second chance implies that Luka has a high tolerance for suffering and that he can overcome hardship...would that trump him fighting his friends?!? (๑>ᗝ<)૭ !!!!
Thank you for going on this insane journey with me. If you made it this far down, YOU'RE A BEAST!!! Please take a well deserved break, because that was crazy lol
