AntiBug and Chat Blanc

So I saw a post and thought: wow that’d be a great villain au...so here we are. P sure this has already been done? This is my rendition of it then! I’ll probably change a lot of it, but eh, it’s a first shot at it. I’ll probably design my own costumes but those pictures r there for now.

Note: Their identities are completely unknown to the public and each other. Master Fu is also evil just so you know and he has his own reasons for that if I ever write them up. Hawkmoth is a goodie, and I’ll delve into that definitely in a separate post if i get around to it. 

Marinette Dupain-Cheng - AntiBug / Negabug / Lady Negative

Villain motive/origin: After being constantly mistreated and bullied she believes there is no hope for humanity as a whole and just wants to have fun. No more teasing and tantalizing snotty girls berating her every day (aka Chloe & Lila). She will definitely get them back, and it feels even more amazing since she has the powers and they don’t. Seeing them helpless is a gratifying pleasure. When she got the miraculous from Master Fu she knew exactly what she was going to do with it.

Personality:

Takes a lot of aspects from Chat Noir’s personality and is a big flirt as Antibug with Chat Blanc.

She doesn’t really pay Adrien much attention but she adores how cold he is to people and doesn’t seem to take anyone’s shit just like she does.

Even though she is a villain she is still kind to her friends. However, she doesn’t go out of her way for people. 

Doesn’t care for school rules. She will always go to school when she wants, no alarm and no bell ringing in her ears to wake up n get going. 

Marinette always bites back @ others if they even say one little thing out of line. She will pay you no mind if you don’t bother her, that’s her deal.

Don’t make fun of her, she prob won’t hesitate to transform right there and humiliate you in front of the entire school, or worse, beat you up lol

Marinette has a phat ego alert!! Not that it is excessively bloated or smthin, but she definitely thinks she is great one way or another.

She is still smart and makes up convoluted plans, but it’s only when she has a drive, otherwise she doesn’t really try too hard. Mari has complete faith nobody can take her and Blanc down.

Doesn’t exactly like confronting civilians to their faces as Antibug; she only wants to hurt those who wish to do her or Blanc harm, or even her friends. She is comfortable as a civilian b/c they are on a equal playing field.

Still annoyed when people pun/flirt @ her, that is never gonna change.

Marinette only radiates that delinquent energy, she is a good student (even if she is constantly late).

Idolizes Adrien and the fact everyone leaves him alone. She wishes she was that invisible! Ppl wouldn’t be annoying her all the gosh dang time. Also she won’t deny he is handsome n his father is a fashion designer which is cool.

Marinette still indulges in fashion n baking, she loves her parents despite how they always get mad at her for being late.

She is pretty self conscious on how people she cares for/likes view her. It hurts to know someone you really wanna get to know doesn’t want to know you.

Even if she is moody n broody, she still enjoys light colors and cute things, just prefers darker tones.

Marinette wouldn’t mind exposing their identities to one another and there isn’t much rules against it. She just wonders if Chat maybe imagines her nicer or prettier.

She often wonders what it would be like to not be the bad guy, but she doesn’t think either of them can be any more than that, especially since that is what they were asked to be too.

Relations: Best friends with Alya; Hates Chloe and Lila; Loves Chat Blanc though he doesn’t show much interest; and totally wouldn’t mind dating Adrien if she had a chance.

Tikki

 Tikki’s colors are inverted to resemble Antibug’s outfit obv.

Tikki is easily frustrated like Marinette but is still a voice of reason. She is there to guide Marinette on how to take down Hawkmoth and get his miraculous back. Tikki still loves cookies but b/c like the evil person she is, she eats raisin cookies (even though Marinette hates them. very random, ik, but it fits). [I’ll prob expand more on her later, but there isn’t much different about her aside from her giving more glares than usual]

Adrien Agreste - Chat Blanc

Villain motive/origin: He doesn’t exactly have much motive for being “evil”, he doesn’t seem to care that he is even labeled that as Chat Blanc. After being constantly told what to do all the time by his father he is void of it all. He does it all mindlessly, not trying too hard in any of his “hobbies” his father prescribes him. His father, of course, thinks he is doing his son a service, even letting him adjust and flex his schedule to what fits him. Adrien, however, still only sees an overbearing amount of work and doesn’t think he is particularly free b/c his father is always busy. When approached with the miraculous he was at first confused, but he doesn’t mind hanging out with Antibug.

Personality:

Apathetic to mostly all situations & does not care too much for social interaction. (He is actually rlly awkward so he doesn’t say anything)

Generally left alone in school b/c of his overbearing presence or smthin. His father is rich & prestigious, can u blame any of them?

Not completely emotionless, he likes to smile but not a lot of things make him do that.

Most happy with Antibug or Nino. Spending time with them is nice

No hard feelings towards his father for not being there, it’s the absence of his mother that made him kind of lose touch with reality/his emotions.

He doesn’t know his father is “Hawkmoth” and fighting against him ofc.

Adrien doesn’t exactly understand romantic love but he wouldn’t mind learning it with Antibug since she is so forward about it. He isn’t bothered by her touching him n flirting.

He doesn’t hate anyone either, he is just a villain because he was asked to.

As Chat Blanc, the miraculous seems to repress his emotions even more so he barely shows emotions. As a civilian, he is much more vulnerable and hates upfront confrontation from anyone.

Despite his “lack of emotion” he is shy (and as aforementioned, awkward). He finds others rather interesting but he doesn’t see much point to relationships in general cause they’re often disappointing for him.

He will NEVER tolerate you harming the people he loves even if they are scarce and few in number.

Adrien is still a childhood friend of Chloe but since he got so distant she hasn’t bothered to annoy him by being all over him n obsessive in respect.

Relations: Neutral towards his father; was rlly close to his mother and deeply loved her before she was gone; best friends with Nino; not much interest in romance but he doesn’t deny Antibug’s feelings; no opinion of Marinette but he catches her staring at him sometimes n doesn’t know why.

Plagg

What is there to change here? He is still uncaring but even more so this time around. He still eats cheese and is cranky too. However, Plagg is white with a black fade towards his tail. His eyes are blue. He tends to not hear Adrien when he calls for him until a few times later.
