Miraculous Wielding Changes (On Characters)

(Read the first bit of this here [Desktop Blog View])

Marinette (Creation)

Marinette doesn't really notice it when her mind fills up with designs and ideas every moment. She was already so close to that, it's not a notable thing for her.

She does notice when her drawings get to be entirely identical to the ideas in her mind. She notices when it gets easier to create things without as much effort.

She knows, at that point, that there's no going back.

Adrien (Destruction)

Adrien doesn't mind the changes, not at first. It makes it easier for him to let out his anger the more he stops caring about the damage he does.

Destruction is not kind, though, and by the time he notices how far he's fallen, it's become clear that he is already unable to stop, his willingness to destroy gone too far.

Alya (Manipulation)

(This is more suited to the tone of the new series. That's the reason for the slight change. Manipulation is because it covers a lot more than just illusions.)

Alya has always had an easier time than most figuring out the truth from lies. She doesn't like it when people try to conceal the truth from her. It's almost surprising when it becomes so very easy to hide herself, to change her words and her face in order to get people to tell her things.

She almost loves it. It helps her feel more real sometimes, but it also makes her wonder.

What does it mean about her, that she's so good at lying? What does it say, that she can't seem to stop anymore?

Nino (Protection)

Nino has never been a fighter. He knows this. He's not one to get into a fight, he's not one to try to get in between two people in a fight.

It's a surprise to him, the first time he jumps in front of Alya when an akumatized villain goes after her. It's even more surprising when he does it again and again.

Chloe (Knowledge)

(did you know bees can count to four and have a concept of zero? Bees are smart! Let the bees be smart!)

Chloe likes knowing things. Secrets, problems, it doesn't matter. It gives her a way to protect her friends. It gives her a chance to protect her family.

It's easy enough to learn things about people. They don't hide it, not in her eyes. People talk, and people argue, and you can't escape the people.

It seems, at first, that the Bee is perfect for her. But still, she changes. She learns things she never would've wanted to know before. She learns how to perfectly distribute information she has to force people to listen to her.

She learns how to manipulate.

Gabriel (Transformation)

Gabriel doesn't recognize himself anymore. His face looks different when he sees it in the mirror, and it's become too easy to become a different person for a day or so.

He doesn't remember how he used to be, but he knows it wasn't this, and he can't help but wonder how Emilie would think of him.

It almost makes him wonder if this truly is worth it.

Nathalie (Emotion)

Nathalie has always been an empathetic person, willing to help others and always understanding of them.

Now, though, it's starting to take on a different meaning. She thinks there's something wrong with her, knowing what people are feeling all the time.

Maybe Gabriel was right. Maybe she shouldn't be using the peacock.

(Damaged miraculi have... interesting effects, if that explains things. More power seeps into the person. Makes you wonder what it would be like if a person used a miraculous for a very long time, doesn't it? Would they still even be able to be considered human?)

So, when I first proposed the idea of having a blog for the book, I did mention perhaps doing some polls or votes on things. So, how about we do one now?

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

#yeehaw #1k #5k #10k #posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours? #also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that! #unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference #edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense #also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags #1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now #he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic #2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign #like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock #3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing #it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is #extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once #it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life #i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about #Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect #if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it #aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

#i often wonder about how many things would be considered classic or high art had they only received the marketing #how many short films that were made for class could have been the most powerful thing you'd ever seen? if you'd seen them? #“you know the greatest films of all time were never made” etc etc #but like. these works of art ARE being made. it's just enjoyed by a smaller audience with equal impact though #i think about this one furry i used to follow on insta who had the coolest worldbuilding ever. it's been years. #thought prompted by that sketch of nimona from ten years ago that was just for a character design #posted to the creator's tumblr and now it's nominated for best animated feature film at the oscars #and by the genuine emotional reaction a fan comic made me feel. how much work had gone into it. how beautiful it was to me. #idk what to tag this but i hope whoever needs to hear it does #writing #writer #fandom #fandom culture #artist

Ice king is a really good character because they intoduce him and you're like "haha what a freak what's wrong with him" and then the show goes "oh! You want to know? Let me show you :)" and you end up just sitting there like

#hi you clicked on the root post :) #good ass character #i love characters that are 'hehe goofy weirdo' and then they show their backstory and they're the most tragic fucking character in the show' #adventure time #ice king

I Have Found A Solution!

So, obviously classic wizard robes aren’t wheelchair friendly. (Alright, admittedly this isn’t common knowledge and also this definitely isn’t a problem for most but listen, this is a problem for me and I’m pleased to present a solution for it nonetheless.)

The issue is in the sleeves and the length of the robes. The traditional trumpet style allows them to get snagged, dirty, and caught in the wheels.

This is distinctly not an issue with other mobility aids such as canes and crutches, these wizards are fine to carry on with their trumpet sleeves simply rolled up if needed.

Now, one solution might simply to shorten the sleeves and hem to be out of the way, but that looks rather silly so I won’t do that. Instead I propose the more elegant design of a hanging sleeve to maintain that flowy magical feel while allowing for better range of motion.

Honestly I just love the look of hanging sleeves in general and think more people should appreciate them, wheelchair user or not.

In conclusion…

#funny talking tag #My favorite thing to do is HC characters as trans but also that they've never heard that term before and act accordingly. #My other favorite thing to do is make characters repressed. #My other other favorite thing to do is make a character go ''I feel like a(n) object/animal/thing pretending to be a man/woman'' #''but I don't really care about that right now I have a job'' #Anyway while this post can be about whichever characters you feel fit I made this with a certain character in mind. #(Dimentio of SPM fame) (He has something really specific going on that makes me cackle) (You can ask me about it)

Kwami Stuff (Main Seven, since that's what I have the most ideas for. Though if you ask nicely I can talk a lot about what happens to folks who wield the Bunny Miraculous.)

Kwamis are... interesting. Physical manifestations of concepts, they don't really work like humans. This also means they don't think like humans. This can be a dangerous thing to work with, if a person isn't careful.

This is a collection of short bits from each of the main seven Kwamis' perspectives. Hopefully, this should give you some idea of what they each are like.

Tikki

Tikki is the Ladybug, the Queen of Creation. She cannot change her nature, to create and imagine. She does not wish to. She cannot think of another thing she could be. She was never meant to be able to.

She is creation, and creation is her. She does not get to be separate. Sometimes, she wishes her wielders could understand, as she doesn't think they have a way to. Other times, she knows well that it would be too dangerous.

She loves them, the mortals, the humans. They partake in her being so freely. If she were anything else, she might wish to be them.

But she cannot wish for such a foolish thing. Tikki is creation, and creation is her.

Plagg

Where creation goes, destruction follows. That is the explanation given for Plagg's existence, along with the explanation given for his sister's.

Plagg is similar to his sister. He knows better than her just what the consequences of wishing for foolish things are, though. He has to clean up her messes.

He likes his new wielder, somewhat. The boy seems to light up at the idea of getting to disobey his father, even for a moment. He understands quite well. Though he is Destruction, he is also Chaos, a perfect mirror of his sister in every way. His sister likes rigidity, everyone following their planned path. He could not live like that. He knows his sister could not understand his wielder's desire for freedom. She is not meant to.

Perhaps, that is why he was chosen for this boy.

Trixx

Once, the humans called them the Prince of Illusions. They were wrong. Illusions are but one aspect of Trixx's being, and they are not a Prince.

Manipulation seems to be the best word the humans have for them now. They like the sound of that, especially once they learn once the word means. It encompasses far more than just paltry parlor tricks like illusions, encompasses much more of their being.

Still, the Guardians insist upon calling them the Prince of Illusions, and Trixx remains quiet. There is no convincing humans like these, too caught up in their traditions to listen to anyone.

Their wielder, though they hate the term, understands their problem. She has gone far too long with people trying to fit her into a box that has never fit her, and is ecstatic to discover just what the two of them are capable of achieving.

Perhaps this partnership will be beneficial, after all.

Wayzz

A guardian must be strong, no matter what they guard. This is what Wayzz has known for his entire existence. So why, then, has his miraculous been given to the most pathetic child he has ever seen? This child doesn't look like he can hold his own at all.

Still, the determination on his face tells Wayzz everything he needs to know.

A guardian must be strong, but what use is strength if there is nothing to guard?

Still. He hopes this child shapes up to be useful.

Nooroo

It is impossible for anything to survive without changing. Perhaps that's why Nooroo exists. He's never been one for hypotheticals and philosophical musings, though. He prefers to do things.

He hates this stasis he is trapped in. Waiting and waiting for a single thing to go the way his wielder wants it to go.

He knows that Gimmi doesn't like granting wishes. He also knows how many Gabriels have already made this wish.

Each different, but still the same. Each broken somehow.

He knows that this Gabriel is changing, though. He watches as his wielder lingers before closed doors he doesn't yet have the courage to open and smiles. Even that much change is enough to survive.

Duusu

Duusu doesn't remember much, not really. She knows what she is, and she knows that Nathalie cares for her, but she can't remember what happened before.

Duusu knows that Nathalie is changing. Becoming more like her. She wonders if being like her is what hurt the one before so badly. It's not a question she can linger on, though. It's hard to linger on much.

The damage to the "Miraculous" damaged her body as much as her mind, and she can see that same damage taking it's toll on Nathalie.

Nooroo tries to talk to her sometimes, and she knows the others do too, but she can barely remember who she is.

They say she is better than Nathalie, but she doesn't feel it.

Pollen (Name Pending)

It's important to know things, no matter what you are. Human, animal, kwami, it doesn't matter. Pollen doesn't care. Knowledge is knowledge, no matter what comes with it.

Her wielder is interesting. Certainly like her already, so willing to find and use knowledge to her advantage. She knows more than anyone realizes, and she knows very well how to convince someone to listen to her already.

Perhaps, with Pollen's guidance, her wielder can become much better at it. Perhaps, she can learn far more than she thought she could.

Height gap romance except the shorter one is frequently depicted in situations where they are contextually taller. The taller one sitting while the shorter one looms over them. Both of them lying in bed with the taller one’s head pressed to the shorter one’s chest. The shorter one straddling the taller one’s lap and leaning down for a kiss. The taller one on their knees as the shorter one tilts their head up. Please, it makes me go feral
