[frie-ice]

This crossover ship collage of Shoto Todoroki and Marinette Dupain-Cheng was inspired by the artwork I have seen of this MHA/ML ship. heyitsbugette likes to call this ship "TodoBug" and "Todonette", while I prefer "TodoMari".

Todobug AU - Headcanons (1)

Pairings:

Marinette Dupain-Cheng / Ladybug x Todoroki Shoto.

Adrien Agreste / Chat Noir x Luka Couffaine/ Viperion

Kagami Tsurugi/Ryuko x Bakugo Katsuki

Masterlist:

Part 2

✦ During the summer Adrien, Marinette and Kagami decided to sign in to the student exchange to Japan. The trio even convinced Anarka to let them take Luka with them. A lot of work is made to reach their goal and of course convince their parents is necessary, but It would be worth the effort.

✦They stay at Kagami's house during their stay, in the care of her father. Taking advantage of the fact that she was teaching them the language and of course, get a break from the class since Lila's lies got worse. But obviously, got forced to use Kaalki to travel to Paris in case of Akuma attacks.

✦ During an attack of some villain, the quartet of heroes decided to work on their own, throwing themselves into danger and defeating the criminal in record time.

✦ Now all of Japan was driven crazy by those foreign heroes, their quirks were amazing and the miraculous cure caught the attention of several veteran heroes. No one would expect the young team to be quirkless.

✦ After that, Chat Noir and Ladybug accepted the request of principal Nezu to give a talk to his students. Apparently he was a good friend of Master Fu when he lived in Japan. Ryuko and Viperion although undecided accepted the offer.

✦ The big day arrived, and the four bequeathed to the academy full of confidence, spoke to each other in French at all time, and it was not until they were received by Eraserhead to take them to the auditorium.

✦ Chat Noir and Viperion had some popularity among female students. The cat with his charisma and beauty, and the snake with his attractive mysterious aura.

✦ Oh, boy~ If they only knew. The handsome foreign heroes were taken by each other.

✦ It should be said that the conference was a success as expected. Ladybug, the Lady Luck and Chat Noir, the Duke of Destruction were clearly the leaders. Ryuko the Marquess of Weather and Viperion the Earl of time unquestionably masters.

✦ The dragon, more than once was involved in heated discussions with Bakugo Katsuki, who found it fun to have her as a nemesis. Mina Ashido thinks they have a strange way of flirting.

✦ Ladybug, on the other hand, although being wary when she met Endeavor's son, still gave him the benefit of the doubt. If Kagami being so cold and serious like him became one of her precious best friends, why judge a boy she just met when they could get along? She was positive in making a friendship with him.

✦ Shoto is still confused and didn't know what to think about the spotted heroine. He did not pay much attention at first to be honest. But as they got to know each other, the petite French girl was earning a soft spot in the Japanese boy's heart.

✦ Ochako being a hopeless romantic, insists that her friend finally has his first crush, and she doesn't miss a chance to tease him with it. Momo amused joins only for the joking, not knowing what will come in the future.

Todobug baby AU - concept.

The few people who know me a little bit know that I'm a sucker for crossovers. It's not much surprising for me to ship Daminette, Jondrien, Todobug or Kagami x Bakugo (what's the ship name? Bakugami? Idk... ) But even if I like salt a lot, I'm into Fluff too. Now, with a little context, follow me the trip.

An AU where Marinette and Shoto are dating, and of course he knows his girlfriend is into the hero bussines as Ladybug. But even if he knows she can handle herself, he notice she's strugling because Chat Noir was hit by an age changer akuma by trying to protect her. (Not salt here, it was an accident. Here they're bros, and know their identities.)

This cause her to protect baby!chat while fighting, and of course Shoto runs into action trying to help her, but... Instead, he got hit turning himself into a kid trying to protect her as well. Even when the akuma is defeated, she's into an internal debate.

Cast the cure of not?

Seeing her best friend and boyfriend there, with a second chance to finally live their chilhood even if is for a moment... Can she cast the cure a little bit late for let them play together?

Todobug: Fallen lover.

The spotted heroine was out with her team for a regular round of patrol, finding herself just a few meters from the girls to plan the rute alongside Chat Noir. She constantly ignored his attentions, but when he took her hand trying to kiss the back, with her opposite she invoked a lucky charm out of curiosity, winning a small spray bottle with which she sprayed on his feline friend.

──── Bad Kitty! Behave! Behave!

She exclaimed, spraying her partner, watching him contract through the water as if he were a small cat taking a bath, making her laugh mockingly next to the turtle hero who stayed next to them contracting against his stomach to laugh at the blonde’s childish reactions. Lately the heroes have gotten much closer as the meetings get more and more enjoyable, sometimes taking a few breaks to chat or joke with each other.

This was one of those days, being a fairly quiet time to afford that luxury that on rare occasions they could joke around. For today the only ones who were absent were Viperion, Roi Singe, and Pegase, but soon it would be their turn on the night patrol. And while both boys were organizing to cover ground next to Ladybug, it was that both Rena Rouge and Queen Bee looked puzzled at the initial duo of heroes at the same time while Ryuko sitting on a pile of bricks next to them sharpened her sword patiently without much interest.

It wasn't until the beautiful-looking blonde snorted as she touched up her lipstick that when she uttered a word, she broke the ice, paying attention to her reflection in the portable mirror that she carried with her even in battle. And at once her lips took on a little more color, she looked out of the corner of her eye at the heroine in a fox costume, ready to start conversation.

──── And ... Are you sure these two are just friends? Huh, I'm suspecting that the Ladybug's alleged boyfriend scandal is actually fake news of that infamous Alec Cataldi guy.

The blonde wasn't exactly discreet when she looked away from her mirror to turn and look skeptically at the dynamic duo fighting childishly as they calmed down to begin their part of the patrol, both walking away with Carapace jumping from roof to roof.

Instead, the young Japanese woman who calmly held her sword, settled into her seat crossing her legs with a quick movement. For a few thoughtful moments, she rested her gaze indifferently on her mate, while resting both hands on the handle of her sword, glancing sideways at the direction in which her superiors were leaving.

──── Believe it or not, she is in a relationship with Todoroki-san, and we must respect that, Queen Bee. It is not very honorable that you speak of him like this when he is not present to defend himself.

It was her answer said with a little bit of hostility, since clearly the foreigner hated gossip and to people talking cowardly behind them back. She did not know the guy in question well enough to consider him a friend, but he had been cordial in those events in which their parents had coincided.

Of course, it was a shock to learn that he was the mysterious boy Chat Noir was constantly complaining about standing between him and “his lady”. However, she couldn't blame them for their relationship being now seen in the public eye, after how an annoying low morality TV presenter had exposed the couple without their consent, robbing them of the opportunity to reveal their relationship when they were ready. It was so unpleasant, but she remembered with satisfaction how the Ladyblogger reported such an invasion of privacy on her blog, causing so much backlash to the man.

Some karma was dealt after that.

And although her words were almost interrupted by a fox lady in a bright orange suit, far from being annoyed, she continued her own business by returning her attention to the weapon even as she paid attention to the girl who questioned her words.

──── As much as I hate the shit Cataldi pull on them, the guy don't give me good vibes... I mean he's stupidly cold even with her. It seems he doesn't even care that Ladybug is in love with him!

The fox's heroine commented annoyed, while the blonde bee buzzed with excitement, agreeing with the words of her comrade. Neither of them seemed to believe Endeavor's son as the one for Ladybug, the national angel of France.

──── I know damn right the guy is hot, I'm not blind. But he's so... Uninteresting that he loses his charm. I think we all agree that our little bug can easily get someone better, my Adrikins is dying for her and I don't blame him, I don't even know who to be jealous of.

The blonde commented in a playful tone while she fixed some strands of hair ruffled by the wind, and putting on the final touches of the lipstick with her hand mirror, she closed the end at once to cross her arms later. It was obvious that her words were anything but kind, because even when Rena agreed that her heroine should seek someone else, it was equally clear that she did not approve of being so cruel when speaking of the aspiring hero. Chloe, on the other hand, was still taking small steps to be friendlier, but the change was gradual and she didn't avoid releasing hurtful comments on rare occasions.

No one refuted anything, it was not worth it and among the three they ended up leaving finally once their rest ended, ready to resume their patrol, perhaps hopefully catching up with the rest of their teammates.

Todoroki Shoto was just leaving the Le Grand Paris, where he was staying with his family, his father apparently had work pending in Paris and they would be spending the summer outside of Japan.

He keeping silent and walking beside his older brother for as long as their paths coincided, after all he did not plan to follow him any longer; he had his own plans going. He had reserved a table in a restaurant that was close to her girlfriend's home, clearly paying with his old man's credit card with the bonus of bothering him, and of course thanks to his action he ended up earning a tremendous shout from the older one, but that did not matter, he just wanted to pamper his beloved.

──── So.. Have any plans, kid?

Asked the curious albino while chilling at the side of his brother. He and his penpal Luka Couffaine would hang out at the mall and then go to the disco store, it was clear that he wanted to see if the youngest of the family was free to accompany them.

──── I'm going out with my girlfriend once she comes back from patrolling with her team.

He answered calmly, taking out his phone when he felt it vibrate for a few seconds, surely his sister had called him to scold him for what he did with the credit card, but from seeing the angry expression on the older man's face he could say that it was worth it worth the scolding.

──── Ah? So, are you're really dating? I thought you were joking when you told us.

The college student spoke with a little laugh, noticing how his sibling looked at him confused. Suddenly the punk looking teenager gave him a discreet push with his shoulder to shut him up, an action that made him finally react.

And it was not for less, he had really been surprised to hear the albino's words, which shows with his changing facial expression. And while the double quirked teen questioned his words with his typical seriousness, it was remarkable for the man, for his slipt he keeps laughing nervously and even uncomfortably at the heterochromatic stare.

──── And… why did you think that?

──── Hey, chill... I didn't mean it like that, but you guys don't really seem like a couple. You know, you don't show it much. B-But I know you must love her a lot, of course!

Realizing how insensitive his words were, as well as how prejudiced he sounded when saying them, Natsuo ended up hiding behind a certain guitarist who shook his head gently and placed his arm between the two boys in a crude attempt at protection in what they both looked like. Instead of getting angry, the half redhead hung his head in surprise, grimacing seconds later, looking at them this time with a frown, clearly offended and annoyed.

──── Don't take it the wrong way, Shoto. You know that Natsuo can be somewhat naive and reckless, it was not his intention to offend you.

──── See you tomorrow, Couffaine…

Without saying anything else, he turns away into the flower shop, leaving behind the guys with whom he had had a bitter revelation. It was the only thing he said, annoyingly walking away in the opposite direction. Didn't they really seem like a real couple? The young man knew that he was not very expressive with his feelings, but he never thought it would be so bad. He continued his walking now without much encouragement, looking even more serious than usual if that was possible, but he was still determined to prove to himself that Natsuo was wrong. Perhaps if he made an effort to make his night with her girlfriend perfect, he could show his love for her, although it was difficult for him to show his feelings. But that did not mean that he wouldn't do his best to try.

So, he continued walking until he reached the picturesque place, entering and buying a bouquet of flowers, cheering up little by little. He left the place much calmer, even motivated, eager to meet his dear ladybug; but it was not until he heard three female voices talking about him and his lovely girfriend without any hesitation, that without being able to avoid it with strangeness he raised his face to watch the heroines speak from the roof of the building animatedly, being the blonde the loudest among the three.

Little by little he felt worse and worse with each word. Was he such a bad boyfriend? Marinette thought the same as her friends?

Once the heroines left the Japanese boy sat on one of the benches, leaving his bouquet of flowers beside him, running his hands over his hair. Maybe they were right, maybe he was giving less to the relationship than his girlfriend deserved, maybe he was throwing her into the arms of another guy with his attitude. Suddenly he felt an upset stomach just thinking about it, it wasn't a nice feeling.

At the same time his discomfort was escalating and frustrated, he bent down looking at the bouquet of roses with an unsatisfied gaze, remembering how the cat hero used to give her a flower every day during the time that his relationship with her was a secret to the public. He remembered the jealousy he repressed every time Chat Noir tried to seduce his heroine, every flirtatious and cheesy nickname said in the midst of battles, as even when she rejected him, he was still motivated to win her love.

He recalled the mistrust he had for Luka when he mentioned his feelings for a certain baker's daughter, but he quickly dispelled his insecurities when he knew that Couffaine would never try anything with her. In his words he remembered how the eldest simply said that “her melody had found her own rhapsody,” whatever that meant. It was much worse when he find out about the past feelings his Maribug used to have towards Adrien Agreste, but detesting him made him feel guilty, the boy was also too kind for his own good.

He needed advice, it was not a good sign to be so insecure or jealous. But he was just a confused teenager in his first relationship, they couldn't blame him for his inexperience.

Todoroki Shoto, Memories. A couple days ago.

During finals a certain pigtail lady had sneaked to Japan with the equine kwami’s help, of course, she missed her long-distance boyfriend as much as she knows he missed her too, and surprising her lover from behind she didn’t hesitate into hugging him sideways, laughing and playing with their noses in an soft Eskimo kiss. A couple minutes later, he took her by the waist just to give his girlfriend room to sit on his lap, while both kwamis hovered curiously around the room towards one of the hero magazines.

──── Not that it bothers me for you to come see me, actually I enjoy it, but what are you doing here?

──── I needed a break ... If I hear Lila say how she introduced you to Ladybug again, I will lose my patience, mon trésor.

With a snort the young woman let herself lean on her lover's shoulder, listening to him laugh vaguely with that unmistakable grimace on his lips, without a doubt the double quirk teen was just as entertained of the situation than he should be.

──── She's still into her fantasies? Should I be scared?

──── Not worth it.

In a mocking tone the eldest played with his beloveds’ lips, approaching to touch them tenderly just to move away when his muse deigned to reciprocate. From one moment to the next, he earned her frown, and it was when he saw her pout that he finally let himself be caught, feeling the plump and pink lips against his, sharing the cherry flavor of her usual chapstick.

When closing his eyes in duo with his sun sunshine girl, one of his hands fixed on her cheek tenderly as he passed his thumb over the blush, while in an ephemeral separation to discharge his heavy breath in a second, they again kissed again. Much more shy tan before.

──── Please come tomorrow… If not, who's going to kick my ass in Ultimate Mecha Strike?

Little could he know that his scattered thoughts made Gabriel Agreste smile with discretion, as he, after sending one of his models to their wardrobe test in the care of their star designers, was that he hung up the call by video-chat once he delegated the activities of the day to Nathalie and went calmly towards the portrait of his beloved Emilie, caressing gracefully the illustration on her lips, in a silent conversation with himself.

He would have another chance to save her.

──── Oh, disappointment and jealousy ~ Powerful feelings from the hand of the lover that will bring my victory ... Simply poetic. Get ready, Ladybug! It will be the person who has your very own heart who will bring your defeat to me. So, fly my little Akuma, and possess Endeavor's son!

Ignorant of what was happening, were his racing heartbeats and his concern about losing the girl he had fallen in love with, without notice he caught the attention of a certain villain who triumphantly prepare one of his akumas to leave outside of his lair as he walked in the direction of his butterfly window ready for send his tiny henchman in search of the tormented teenager boy whose peace was disturbed. Humming, Hawkmoth smiled poisonously, capturing in his hands the tiny being whom he filled with negative energy, and in the end commanding them with his stick for catch his target.

Earlier when news of the heroine's romance leaked, he simply didn't rush into acting. He wasn't an idiot, he knew how dangerous it was to villainize the wrong people at the wrong time, he learned it the hard way with certain failed villains. But now, it was the perfect timing for him.

The akuma fluttered from the sky until found the source of such intense negative feelings, it could feel them for miles, and when the time came it was easier to be able to catch him without being noticed. Without missing the opportunity to melt into the bouquet of roses that the brokean hearted boy held so sadly, linking without opportunity to fight in a forced communication with the most feared villain in Paris at the moment when the butterfly communicator managed to get a surprised sigh out of him.

──── Greetings, Heartstroke. I am your friend, Hawkmoth. I have felt your fear of losing the love of your heroine, as everyone sees you as an obstacle. I promise to give you the power to punish whoever dares to take her away from you, and prove them wrong... But there is something you must do for me in return.

His words were poisonous, said with false concern and artificial charisma, selling to his victim the idea that would solve their problems once and for all, but the minor's doubt internally annoyed the criminal, he hated when his victims became resistant.

──── No, I won't give you her miraculous…

──── Don't be naive, son. Every Ladybug is destined for her Black Cat. Creation and destruction cannot live without the other. I offer you the opportunity to free her from her destiny. And what do you say? Do you accept my offer?

The half albino quickly covered his ears, while biting his trembling lip closed at the same time, he closed his eyes, unable to resist the intense connection with Hawkmoth any longer. But with each spoken word he felt increasingly furious, helpless, more insecure. To Paris, he was just a busybody, someone who kept Ladybug away from her one true love, the one who truly cared about her; as with every threatening mail they insinuated that he should get away and look for someone else, that he should stop confusing Lady luck's feelings. He couldn't handle it anymore, he was only human after all, and naturally he was selfish.

Selfish for wanting a future with her.

──── It will be a pleasure, Hawkmoth.

With a simple scaling flash of light, the bicolor eyed boy’s body was enveloped until it disappeared into a new metamorphosis, a different appearance drifted away from his usual looks.

Goodbye Todoroki Shoto, let's meet Heartstroke.

Todobug AU - Headcanons (2)

Pairings:

1.    Marinette Dupain-Cheng / Ladybug x Todoroki Shoto.

2.    Adrien Agreste / Chat Noir x Luka Couffaine/ Viperion

3.    Kagami Tsurugi/Ryuko x Bakugo Katsuki

Masterlist:

Part 1

✦ During his stay in Japan, Chat Noir was the first to jump to become friends with everyone there, so it was not strange for anyone when he took the time to meet Shoto, and surprisingly both immediately connected by having in common the bad relationship with their fathers. Of course, they understand each other perfectly.

✦ Eventually Viperion decided to adopt him symbolically, as with his empathetic and mature personality he managed to become close to him. To such an extent that when he was questioned about his father assuming he would talk about Endeavor, he just raised an eyebrow and shamelessly replied: “Yeah, Viper's a pretty cool hero.” Of course, his response becomes iconic.

✦ But not surprisingly, both Shoto and Ladybug didn't connect at the beginning. To be honest, the french gal didn't know how to deal with someone so serious, she always had been surrounded by people with bubbly personalities in both inside and outside her heroic alter-ego. He instead seemed at times somewhat introverted, someone who, although not aggressive like Kagami, still kept his distance. Shoto didn't see the charm in bonding with someone who was going to leave anyway.

✦ However, they were cordial. It was not until seeing them train Ladybug paid attention to the details of each student along side with the snake hero, both commenting on certain patterns that they noticed in their fights, Ryuko instead did not join the pleasant discussion because as he was always arguing heatedly with Katsuki for some triviality. But those who caught her attention mainly were Momo Yoyorozu and Todoroki Shoto.

✦ In fact, although Adrien used to be very jealous of anyone who dared to gain Ladybug's affection during his past infatuation with her, it was in fact him who introduced his new friend and his lady as soon as he had noticed that she felt a certain interest into speaking to him. He knew that if anyone could soften Shoto it would be Marinette, even his cousin Félix did.

✦ Marinette thought that Momo Yaoyorozu would be the perfect replacement if something were to happen to her to make her unable to fight. She wouldn't hesitate to comment on her idea to Tikki, just to find out her opinion of someone else wielding her. And naturally discuss the idea with the girl just in case of she was willing to.

✦ Endeavor's son on the other hand demonstrated certain techniques that caught her curiosity, and when she came to let him know it was a tremendous shock to him that she asked for his advice. Why would a professional heroine ask for help with her attack techniques?

✦ Soon he would know that each member of Team Miraculous is chosen according to their specialties. Ladybug and Viperion were strategic, intellectual. Ryuko and Chat Noir were the best in terms of strength and lethality. Yes, Ladybug was a great heroine, but she still needed to polish her skills. So they decide to start training together, learning some things from each other, an action that does not go unnoticed by the gossip of the student body.

✦ It was kinda obvious they were having too much fun in Japan. Kagami missed her country, Adrien fell in love with the culture beyond his fanaticism for anime and manga, Marinette was inspired by Japanese fashion and had decided to prepare to create her own inspired line with some native models. Luka was more neutral, not a big fan of big cities, but he found rural areas pleasant to hang out for inspiration.

✦ Adrien would soon discover that Bakugo has talent as a model, it is a pity that they cannot hang out with the U.A. students as civilians, he knew Marinette would have loved for the grumpy blonde to model her designs.

✦ Eventually the team finally meets Endeavor, who showed interest in mentoring the foreign heroes, but still not entirely trusting, keeps his interest hidden as he sets out to investigate them as much as he can. So, It was not so strange to see the miraculous team come to their home from time to time. Little did he know that they did not have the best image of him, with the blond cat being the most defensive.

✦ Ladybug taking out her inner Marinette bakes occasionally with Fuyumi, Shoto joining them most of the time to ruin the mixes awkwardly by accident. Although no one complains, they have a good time tasting the failed mixes and joking around.

 ✦ Chat Noir and Ryuko are not that close to the family, remaining neutral most of the time. Although Viperion makes his distrust of the flame hero clear, letting him know on more than one occasion. For him, his tune is confusing, but ignored It while he quickly becomes Natsuo's friend, teaching him how to play various songs on guitar.

✦ It turned out the spotted heroine had some things in common with the youngest son of the Todoroki clan, however, she soon noticed that he did not experience many situations that other teens his age did, it was like having a second Adrien Agreste at her side. Anyone said he didn't play ultimate mecha strike? Suddenly she taught him how to kick butts in that video game. He never heard of Jagged Stone? Unacceptable. Ladyluck casually gift him the Rock Giant album. Never went to paintball with friends? She would leave him so full of paint that it would take days to get rid of all the ink. The guy never seen The Fresh Prince of Bel Air? It was her job that the boy had some culture and some rest.

✦ Eventually they became close enough to make their own plans without having a third party present with them, despite how annoying it was that her transformation interrupted them in the best parts of the movies they watched together, or when they came out for a coffee and she had to find a hiding place to recharge her miraculous. Eventually he gave her a Kitsune mask as a gift, so she could protect her identity while hanging out together, also wanting the heroine took a souvenir for her to remeber him when she returned to Paris.

✦ But after thinking about it and remembering that her stay would be temporary, he couldn't help but feel saddened about her future return to France. Yes, he knew that every day the miraculous team teleported to fight akumas, he even followed them on missions sometimes along with Midoriya, but it was evident that it would not be the same; the girl was too professional to use her powers for selfish gain. Why would she teleport to see him? He had to get the idea that their friendship would not be the same once she leaves.

✦ The half redhead never expected at all that his dear friend was equally concerned about losing him due to distance. That's how united they had become.

There's no need of sugar to express love

Ladybug and Shoto are already in a relationship. When they're both got exposed by a photo of them kissing, it's not a secret anymore.

They both train together all the time and sometimes she teach him how to bake. But when they can't see each other due to Akuma's attacks, he's on the lookout for the transmissions in the Ladyblog hoping for her safety.

One day he accidentally listens to Queen Bee and Rena Rouge talking, doubting his feelings for Ladybug due to his cold attitude, comparing him to Chat Noir.

And well... He's losing the bets.

He's not stupid, he knows that half of Paris want the heroes together. He knows how much Chat Noir loves her, but he trust his Ladybug.

Of course he becomes insecure and worries thinking that his girlfriend is going to leave him eventually for her flirty partner, he thinks she's trying to break up nicely without hurting him.

Then when she notices why her beloved acts strange, they talk, then she fills him with love to persuade him.

She loves him.

There's a lot of Alya!Salt but... What about Alya!Sugar? As the protective friend who wants the best for her idol + Chloe's redemption.
