#does anyone want to know about my au where adrien and sentibug fall in love?

[paracosmicat]

Okay, I think I need to share some of the headcannons me and Nina came up with for Sentibug

I personally believe that Adrien would be the one to take in and introduce her to the world. He was so devastated by what happened, you just know he thinks about her often. He is such a sweetheart (and also a sentibeing) he would be so thrilled to be her guiding light. She also needs somewhere to sleep and the Agreste Manor conveniently has a bedroom to spare.

Given the nature of the relationship, he sort of has to reveal he is Chat Noir, which means Adrien FINALLY has someone else to confide in about this.

I have been thinking about what her civilian self would look like and honestly? I think she would look like what Nathalie is picturing Ladybug looks like under the mask. The lower half of her face would look the same, but she would have thicker brows/different facial structure/MOLES as @ninadove suggested

I have been thinking about a name, and I think initially Adrien would refer to her hero form as Coccinelle (Ladybug in French) to differentiate the two of them. The name they would eventually give her civilian self would be Mireille which is a French name that means miracle (OR miraculous)

Any and all assumptions Nathalie made about Ladybug's civilian self translated onto her which means her wardrobe is Nathalie's "What are the teens wearing these days?" Which means she wears business casual with lots of floral and pretty patterns. Definitely NOT what the teens are wearing but it suits her.

How she is able to come back is that once a sentibeing is created, their soul/memory/being is stored within the miraculous in a similar manor to the previous holders (which begs the question... would they be reachable with a kwagatama?) and the holder of the peacock can revive them so long as they are willing.

PLEASE talk about your Sentibug

AN OPPORTUNITY TO TALK ABOUT HER? 🐞❤️ (I LOVE YOU)

In my AU, the way she is able to be brought back is through the Peacock Miraculous. I personally think Adrien’s interest, now that he is free, should be Miraculous lore because it’s a natural side step given how much freedom and happiness his Miraculous has brought him and it would give Chat Noir a much bigger role to play in their hero business. (Also it makes more sense for him than for Marinette, because the Miraculous has been a chain, the opposite of what it has been for Adrien) And where does his research take him? Exploring the Kwagatama and uncovering that Sentibeings lives and memories are stored within the Miraculous, able to be brought back so long as they are willing.

That was my very long winded way of saying, Adrien had never really gotten over her death so he works with Félix to bring her back.

AND SO

Given that Adrien was the one to fight for her, he takes it upon himself to make sure she has a place in the world. He introduces himself to her as Chat Noir, but offering her a place to stay at his house does require that he reveals his identity. (Which, gives Adrien someone in his corner, which I love)

NOW

Figuring out her identity is something they work together on. Adrien nicknames her Coccinelle, French for Ladybug, as a temporary nickname and a way to differentiate their hero forms. I think she continues to use this for her hero form name as she helps them when needed, same with the other heroes.

Speaking of hero forms, I think it would be really funny if she could still do Lucky Charms but they were always insanely oversized weapons.

BUT FOR HER CIVILIAN FORM

The insanely talented @belowthesurface drew my vision of her civilian form!! And I will be using this art to make my next points and because oh my god did I mention how talented Moonie is???

I think Adrien finds it important to find her a name that she likes, so he researches it with her. They eventually come across Mireille, which means miracle/miraculous. As @ninadove pointed out, it’s also a bit older of a name which is suiting for her vibe given that a lot of it is a reflection of Nathalie’s touch!

As you can see their facial structures are similar but different. I would describe her features as Nathalie “filling in the blanks” much the same as when you see someone wearing a face mask.

As for style, I’ve made this joke so many times but I feel like her style is Nathalie’s “what are the teens wearing these days?” Very formal and business casual while still looking really really good.

And you know who would love her??? Félix!!! A Sentibeing who went against orders and paid the price but ended up making it in the end? A representation of his cousin making decisions for himself and refusing to repeat the awful patterns of the people before him? He would be ecstatic.

Her personality would be very sweet, shy, and lovey. It would be easy to say she had Ladybug’s leadership and determination, but she immediately agreed to doing “whatever you say, Ladybug” and she did not quip back at Chat Noir when Ladybug did. She was designed to be a sweeter softer version of her, one that Chat Noir would fall for, I think her personality follows suit!

Btw, anyone is welcomed to create content with her, if you so please. I love her I want more of her.
