What inspired you to ship Aurore with Kagami? :)
Honestly I don't really know, it's only not a crack ship because they at least exist in the same universe lol.
I guess factors include me just thinking Kagami gives strong Lesbian vibes, I wanted someone to drool over her when she came to Chloe's party like it's the freaking Met Gala, and the Dragon has actual weather powers.
#I just think they're neat!#I fully get that Aurore is barely a realized character in canon I'm playing with dolls over here#smooshing their heads together to make them kiss#ask zoe#sl ask

Tempest

Idk if that’s what she’d call herself really, but I think it’s cool. (Better than Storm Dragon, which was my other idea.) Anyway, tada! It’s Aurore with the dragon miraculous! This was a design I’d been wanting to do for a long time, but unfortunately it doesn’t really have an AU to go with it. I just thought it made too much sense not to draw. But yeah, this is her! Cute right?

A bit of a random question : how would you imagine the events of BURN THE WITCH! happening in the Scarlet Lady continuity - assuming Lila is just as bad as in Canon?
@zoe-oneesama, since you are part of this, too.
SO.
I had a whole thing written up. A whole thing. And it was so awesome! I was so proud and happy with it. I was one paragraph away from being done and posting my glorious synopsis for the world to see. And then the screen refreshed, and I lost it all. DX
So here’s my slightly less awesome description of the idea that I had to try and recover through memory. Fallible inferior memory of what could’ve been:
So if we’re ignoring Lila’s development and how glorious it would be to have Witch Hunter targeting Scar at the climax of the fall of her popularity, this would be a little more difficult to work with. Difficult, but still very much doable.
There are two ways it could work.
The first would be that Scar DIDN’T out Lila to the entire class so no one besides Chloe knows Lila is a liar. Perhaps the lazy option and closest to Canon, but it still works better than the Canon setup. Chloe would try to tell people that Lila is a liar and it would make sense that no one believes her because…well…it’s Chloe. She’s a known liar herself. AND a bully.
Of course, there’s still the matter of Adrien falling into jerk territory for not telling anyone that Lila is a liar, but given that this IS Scarlet Lady Adrien, we can arguably attribute his poor decision-making to his lack of sleep and added stress from solo hero duty. As such, I’m willing to give this iteration of him a break for not wanting to deal with the added drama between two girls he doesn’t want to be around anyway. Plus, it would be hilarious to see Chloe and Lila sabotaging themselves sabotaging each other in their attempts to rule the class and “win” him, only for each episode to end with Adrien hanging out with Marinette or Nino, because the boy deserves nice things and I live for the bromance.
The second option would be that Lila is outted but fakes her redemption arc.
After all, the classmates are naturally very easily forgiving of people. And Lila is a new student. All she would have to do is apologize and make up some claims, and they would totally be on board with still being friends.
Sure, they would take any of her future lies with a grain of salt, but that would only be her tall tales. Specifically her lies about connections and fame and the lies meant to make her seem “bigger than life“. That wouldn’t quite be the case for the lies made to make her seem weak and vulnerable. Especially if she kickstarts her new brand of manipulation by being just that.
“I’m SO sorry! *sobsob* I was so nervous being the new girl in a new school, and I was scared you wouldn’t like me. And you all are so cool that I wanted to be as amazing as you. *sob* I didn’t mean to hurt anyone! Could you ever forgive me? *sadface*”
And you know they would. Which would make for a particularly sinister form of emotional manipulation as she plays up the remorseful act. “I understand if you don’t believe me. It’s okay if you don’t forgive me yet.” Which would immediately invoke reassurance that of course they believe her and of course they forgive her! Which would distract from her current manipulations and suspicious behaviors. Emotional appeals are like that—focus on feelings and respond to those feelings instead of facts or truth.
And since Lila is “working so hard to be better”, of course they would want to support her in her efforts. Such as say, charity work. She may not go so far as to make up a charity like she did in the OG BURN THE WITCH!, but she can collect funds…which can then “mysteriously disappear” on the way to their final destination.
Meanwhile, Chloe would be the only one actively against it, which would make her a character for Lila to work off of. Nothing makes a liar look good like having someone else look like a bully. And Chloe’s attempts to out Lila for her manipulations wouldn’t get anywhere since it would be brushed off as Chloe being vindictive and not forgiving Lila over a past petty issue that everyone else has already moved on from. Which works both in and out of story because it is true. Right for the wrong reasons and all.
Unfortunately, this does mean that Chloe would get to do the “I Told You So” Dance when Lila does eventually pull her final stunt and gets caught.
Which would lead to Witch Hunter. It could be Rose again, though since the charity would be verified and she would be dating Ali this go around, he wouldn’t likely be mad or blame Rose for being deceived so she may feel less like her world is ripped out from under her. Mylene would also be an option as given her activism and involvement in the community, it’s something she would take seriously. It could even be Ivan or one of the boys. I’m not picky!
There are options!
So regardless, SOMEone is getting akumatized to burn a witch.
…which would lead to two major problems in story.
The first, of course, would be that Scar is our Ladybug hero and she would happily let Lila burn. This girl intentionally led akumas to Marinette TWICE previously in the comic and also tried to hand her over to zombies another time—not even as a sacrifice or needed act to protect herself but simply out of pure spite. You KNOW she would get Lila caught immediately. She wouldn’t even be affected by the akuma. She would just hand her over and watch the show.
The second problem is that depending on when this takes place in the comic timeline, Marinette may not yet be Marigold. And since she wasn’t the one to out Lila, depending on which of the earlier mentioned to out Lila or not to out Lila versions we take, she may not be already aware of the depth of Lila‘s selfishness, which would make her susceptible to Witch Hunter and likely make her a part of the angry mob...assuming she doesn’t get akumatized into Witch Hunter herself.
Which means it would be up to Chat. A very tired, incredibly stressed out, and just about “done with this sh**” Chat. To save someone he hates from consequences she arguably deserves. All while resisting the urge to cataclysm her himself.
Especially if she’s wasting time trying to manipulate him. Especially especially if Marinette follows the role of her self from the OG and tries to help Lila only for Lila to pull another “sudden but inevitable betrayal” and try to leave Marinette to the mercy of the mob.
His responses are open for debate at this point.
On the one hand, being the main hero and already hating Lila would grant him protection from the control effect so he could still save the day. And I imagine he would be SIGNIFICANTLY more terrifying than Ladybug was in the aftermath. See Ladybug’s “I will follow you around and make your life exceedingly unpleasant using the circumstances you have created and brought upon yourself” To The Pain vs Chat’s “Let me describe to you what Cataclysm can do to the human body. In detail.” Real Horror with serious implications and be careful with what you try to touch in the future *politesmile*.
…on the other hand, it amuses me to imagine Chat gets affected and helps stop Witch Hunter anyway. Either because he’s just that resigned to the job, because he sees Scar wants Lila burned and even when he’s under the akuma’s influence he still despises Scar more, or because Marinette remains sane and manages to navigate him to help either through cunning or out of his love for her.
……on the other OTHER hand, we were denied an akumatized Marinette in the comic and this could be a way to do it. Chat stays sane and ends up convincing Akumanette to stop out of her love for him to be the bigger person. Yes. Totally.
Chat: (Hugs Akumanette)
Marinette: (Deakumatizes)
Scar: (In background) Booooo. Laaaaame.
Lila: (Tied to a pole) Still tied up here!
Chat: Eh, you’ll be fine.
And since Akumanette is defeated and everyone is freed from the mob control with her defeat, there’s no need for the Cure. So we get the festival still set up and Chat and Mari can have a date.
And they may or may not leave Lila tied up while they do. Plus Lila is still left drenched in Seine water. So all in all, not a pleasant experience. And ultimately, she ends up in the same boat she was at the end of the original story, which I think is what everyone really wanted anyway.
Sadly, that includes Chloe. She will count it as a victory and be bragging about it for a while. A long while.
But she’ll be getting hers soon enough anyway, so it will all work out.
#HAHAHAHAA oh my gawd that's good#I totally see SL Chat being basically immune but still not being particularly helpful until juuuuuuust before the match is struck#then just princess dips akumanette and gives a heartwarming speech about how Lila's an idiot who just outed herself a second time#and no one will eeeeeever believe her again UwU so time to turn back into his pretty pretty princess who doesn't commit arson pwease#and she just does lmao#and Lila's dumbstruck that a VERIFIED HERO called her STUPID in front of ALL OF PARIS#and Scarlet pouting that he's such a spoil sport (with infected Tikki silently agreeing in her head)#burn the witch crossover#nobodyfamousposts

Zoe, how do you manage to create this fashion design or redesign of the Miraculous characters?
You seem to understand fashion, this thing, you're being very critical, I like that, could you give me some tips?
Because you seem to have studied fashion arts, especially from Scarlet Lady, which I loved, where the characters change clothes instead of wearing the same clothes 24 hours a day.
Do you understand how to combine which character would best match such personality by personality or appearance and if
Anyway, I'm a big fan of your art, especially the future you're creating. Thank you very much for answering me if possible.
Wow thank you! That's high praise! I actually haven't studied anything about fashion from an academic point of view, I'm just really passionate about character design lol. I think I actually come at it from a Cosplayer angle - I want to draw characters that people would want to cosplay as, so I want to make them a little more interesting than everyday clothes.
Not to say a casual look doesn't make good character design, but I just have more fun with drawing a character that has something fashion forward going on. Especially when they are CANONICALLY supposed to be fashionable!
As for "how I do it", I just look up sooooo many different references. I feel like it's not that hard to marry a character's personality and life circumstances to their fashion - if anything, their fashion is just another vehicle to getting their personality and backstory across.
Example: Ivan is a irritable loner with a rough homelife who gets his aggression out through music, so he dresses in almost no color and dons band tshirts. Visually is he striking or like something you want to immediately craft a Cosplay over? No, but it doesn't have to be - Ivan's fashion fits Ivan.
I've actually been asked for tips in the past, so I gotchu over here. I stand by what I said here even 5 years later~
Anway, with Miraculous Ladybug, sooooo many characters are tied to Fashion or Legacies that Prioritize Appearances, so I feel like those characters should be, I dunno, fashionable? Marinette, Chloe, Adrien, even Kagami and Nathalie should be going harder than they are and it's weiiiiiird that they're not.
#I didn't add Gabriel because I actually think the fact that his style is so basic says a lot about him#ask zoe#fashion

do you dislike anything about Chloe season six design from miraculous if you do, can you tell me what

Ehhhhhh mixed bag. I love the new hair and she wouldn't be Chloe without her sunglasses, so neck up, 10/10. When we first saw only her upper torso in "Daddycop", I was kinda put off by her cardigan looking so....cozy? Like, I like the honeycomb pattern, but it looks thicker than her old one and kinda long, so like...comfy. Which, visually, I don't mind, but uh...
Chloe is NOT cozy or comfy.
Then we saw the rest of her in "Climatiqueen" and I was like "huh?!" This is partially the fault of the animation style giving all their characters the longest legs ever, but her skirt is too long despite being above the knee, which makes it too Corporate in the shots that don't show the hem imo. And with it having the same pattern and color of the Too Cozy Cardigan (which I think is supposed to be some kind of blazer but the collar gives Cardigan), it's just too busy.
I think they were going for "Clueless" vibes, with the all over same pattern and cute colors mixed with grown up suit cuts, like this:

But I don't think it works with just any pattern, there's a reason these are all plaid. And her skirt isn't youthful enough like a pleated one or a high waisted pencil. It's skirting of Just Left of Correct for me.
Then they dropped in "Revelator" that she's now an online fashion influencer and I was so annoyed. Just like Adrien, they didn't PUSH it hard enough for a So Called Fashion Icon. The show writers/designers should just abandon trying to put everyone in the Fashion industry when they don't care enough about it.
So anyway, my version based off what we know of Chloe in Season 6:
(Once again, the canon one doesn't look as bad to me when I draw it in my style lmao)
I think if she's going to be a Fashion Influencer, it's about time she got roasted for her makeup - and corrects it! I think the length of her original skirt is too long to pair with go-go boots so I traded those out for ankle boots, and tried to give her a skirt that you wouldn't find just anywhere. I know she's clinging to her Queen Bee status, but she can ditch the dumb-thick stripe top finally. My design does have the consequence of not being interesting when cut off in a close shot, but that's not a big deal to me lol.

The Lady-Buggers

I just felt like drawing all the different Ladybugs that are complete pieces of work, aka @zoe-oneesama’s Scarlet Lady, @nionom-art’s Cochineala and my own Princess Ladybug. I herby dub them the Lady-buggers because they all bug everyone who works with them. I drew this because I just knew they’d bug each other if they ever met. Anyways, here they are, and they’re all fighting for your attention. :)
*Edit—I had no idea what Bugger meant, weirdly—I just thought it meant like they bug you, like bother or annoying or something? Gee, now I feel like an uneducated American. Oh well. The more you learn. :)
#lmaoooooo wu...what else does bugger mean? what else does it mean?!#ahhhh these three together would get *less* than nothing done#art by op#goatlilly#scarlet lady#scarlet lady fan art#coccinella#princess ladybug

Kid Monkey

Results are in, and the Monkey won, so here’s Froggy as Kid Monkey. He’s definitely an agent of chaos, and he probably hits everyone with that stick. Also he has awful aim, (more like he isn’t trying,) so when he throws his Uproar toys they don’t always hit what Miss Terra wants them to hit. Also he’s a terrible listener, and probably spends group planning sessions doing Parkour with his stick and making faces at Kitty Tiger, (who gets more annoyed than is reasonable because kids be sensitive.) So yeah, just really hard to work with, but he’s generally good natured. Plus, Xuppu loves him, so… I guess there’s that. :)

How would things have changed in your Scarlet Lady au if Chloé had stolen the Cat Miraculous instead of the Ladybug's? Would she have accidentally killed any akumatized Villan with her cataclysm? What kind of damage would she have caused with that power? I imagine she would use It Very irresponsibly, Just like she did with the Lucky Charm.
Well, it wouldn't be the Scarlet Lady AU anymore lol and I've actually answered this 6 years ago. I feel like it's totally possible for Chloe to go one of two ways in that scenario - full tragic villain route, or redemption through apprenticeship route.
Being Scarlet Lady gave Chloe an overly inflated head, even more so than canon. All by virtue of being the Necessary Hero, which gave her the freedom to be, well, irresponsible and sloppy.
But with the Cat, sloppiness leads to unnecessary destruction and problems for Paris. Causing problems isn't exactly the road to love and appreciation, it's a good way to have normal citizens be highly critical of you on sight. This wouldn't boost Chloe's ego, it would boost her rage and self pity.
So depending on where you'd want to go with that, you could lead her down a self-fulfilling prophecy route where everyone treats her like a nuisance so she becomes more and more of a nuisance, in this cycle of anger and blame that only ends when someone comes and takes the Cat Miraculous off of her.
Or, go the Scarlet Lady route and keep the original "partner" and pair her with Marinette as Ladybug, the Ladybug that OG Chloe was a huge fan of. She'd take her cues from Ladybug and become more in control of herself and her powers, leading her to being a respectful hero in her own right, which leads to a sense of pride in her work and her accomplishments. So like, a redemption route.

I was thinking in Minie Miraculous AU you said if there's any more little kids in the show they'll get a miraculous and my minda kinda just went for a blank and the only two I can think of is the white blonde Manon clone and baby August and I just think of a baby having like the tiger miraculous lol
Haha, literally me when I was starting this AU… I actually had this idea for Blond Manon….

She has a whole backstory—see, her and Manon go to school together, and they’re always being teased for looking alike. This girl is a little full of herself and thinks she’s all that and a bag of chips, plus she has cool light up shoes, so naturally Manon hates her. You know, as kids do. This girl becomes Princess Anti-Bug when Manon’s petty attitude towards her comes out in her hero form after she sees her cosplaying as Princess Ladybug. So basically Manon just says she makes an ugly superhero or something to that effect. Miss Terra teaches her the importance of not being mean to others and makes her apologize.
#she need the lightup shoes to distract from the fact that she's a jumpscare on screen lol#princess anti-bug#art by op#minnie miraculous au#goatlilly

Kwami Swap Day 3, this time with Sublime and the sublime horse miraculous! I actually found it pretty difficult to find a miraculous that fit Sublime, but I finalized the horse due to her being an athlete that specializes in running. She was pretty fun to design, and I got to focus on more athletic wear! Her prosthetics were a pain to draw, but I feel they came out pretty well! Who should I do next?

Day 1 of Miraculous Kwami Swaps, starting with my new favorite character of season 6, Diane! She’s so funny to me, just due to all her luck, so I think giving her the miraculous of luck would be pretty fitting! What do you think? Who should I do next?
