Miraculous Guardian!Nathaniel AU (For artzychic27)

This was an idea of mine for an AU where Nathaniel is training for to be a miraculous guardian, and after reading Scarlet Warlock inspired me to see Nathaniel as a guardian of a different miraculous box. Enjoy!

For many generations, the Scarlet Warlock Nicolas Kress and his descendants have watched and protected the coven miraculous box.

Cut to modern day, about few months or so before Canon, Nathaniel Kurtzberg is coming home from a rather rough day from school on the anniversary of his father's passing. When he arrives home, he notices a dark colored box with somewhat arcane markings on it that 

When he touches the box, he accidentally releases what he thinks are a bunch of animal-based ghosts but are really just kwamis of the coven miraculous box.

Screech, the bat Kwami of knowledge, tells Nathaniel that he is the descendant of Nicolas Kress, the Scarlet Warlock, and the next guardian to be of the coven box. Screech also mentions that Nathaniel's father was the previous guardian.

Kwamis of the coven miraculous box include Screech (a bat), Luna (a wolf kwami of leadership) Faate (a black widow spider kwami of fate), Wiisp (a firefly kwami of guidance), Lokii (raven kwami), Slypph (Owl Kwami), and a few others kwamis that includes a frog, a different snake, and a scorpion, etc. 

The kwamis teach Nathaniel about the magic that is the Miraculous, the responsibilities of the coven miraculous users and try to

Screech is Nathaniel's main partner, and allows him to transform into a modern version of Scarlet Warlock

At some point a month after opening the box Fu discovers who is protecting the coven box and takes Nathaniel under his wing. The two agree for Nathaniel to assist from the shadows when the time comes for the chosen Ladybug and Black Cat users to be picked.

Canon happens where Marinette and Adrien become Ladybug and Cat Noir, except Nathaniel is just helping with damage control.

Juleka at some point discovers Nathaniel's identity, and is given the Raven Kwami as a partner later on because it fit and she has a heroine identity as Lady Nevermore.

Most if not all of Ms. Mendelieve's class gets coven box kwamis, effectively.

Thoughts on the AU?

One of the most memorable interactions was Saturday. Into our booth strolls a small family, tempted by free samples of freshly brewed tea. We chatter and give them the spiel, that the tea is character merch and we’re a cozy health-based app called Forage Friends.

The young girl zeroes in on our pride pins.

“They have my pin!” She says excitedly. “They have my flag!”

The dad blinks. He is surprised, but also calm and positive when he sees it’s the lesbian flag. “Oh. That’s… different from what you told me.”

“That was months ago, dad.” And she rolls her eyes. Definitely a teenager.

I turn to him and say, “Yeah, dad.” And we share a little laugh about it.

He says, “No, it’s great. That’s amazing, honey. It was just news to me.”

“Well, I guess I just decided to stop lying to myself. About liking guys. Like right now.”

A little lesbian just came out to her dad and he was super cool about it.

I’m standing there in my tie-dye mask and my cheery blue apron pouring tea and making small talk and I’m trying really hard not to cry or compare it to my experience, the fire & brimstone, the disgust, the conditional acceptance as long as I never bring it up.

So as this beautiful bonding is going on, the girl’s even younger brother turns his gaze around. He’s in a snorlax hoodie and bored and wants to go look at the swords across the hall. But on the other side of our booth….

“WHY DO PEOPLE DRAW THAT?” He asks loudly, and we all turn to our neighboring booth.

Our neighbors were extremely lovely people. Every time we had a break we would talk, and we became good friends over the weekend. They kept apologizing that their booth was next to ours and we kept repeating that it was totally fine. Their booth was great. I even bought their merchandise.

The thing that was so contentious, that they felt the need to apologize for, was that they were selling explicit titty hentai stickers of popular characters. They were censored with little yellow R18 labels but the content was very clear.

So back to the family: I freeze and immediately go somewhere else to let dad handle this question. With adult customers I’ve been loud and positive about our neighbors. (“Man, how has it been boothing next to them?” It’s been great! They bring a lot of foot traffic and they’re kind and wonderful professional neighbors. If anything it’s a fun juxtaposition. We believe in artistic freedom. I bought a sticker too!)

But this is a kid, it’s not my place to explain anything…. But I was extremely curious about what this chill dad would say.

“Well,” dad says with a long measured silence between each word. “Sometimes people are horny.”

#IT WAS SO FUNNY #the kid was like GROSS #and dad was like its art :) #maybe one day you will feel that way too son #and he was like NO NEVER GROSS #and the dad was like you know what thats true :) not everyone feels that way #but maybe some day you will and you’ll see it’s totally fine and normal #A+ dad #dad of all time #dad champion #forage friends

a comic about a trickster.

creative notes:

–

all my other comics

store

#cw: emotional abuse #cw: gaslighting #cw: animal death #charity - a god whose name was only ever meant to be ironic #i love playing with the concept of religion like this #im not religious at all but i did go to a christian school for twelve years #and i remember learning about the story of abraham. who long story short gets told by god to kill his son to prove his love for god. #and at the veeeery last minute god goes sike! this was a test to see if you'd do it! here's a lamb to slaughter instead #but the whole concept of that exchange in and of itself is so #anyway #one thing i meant to include in the creative notes but i ran out of room for is that charity never calls cunning by his name. #it's just “fox”. which was a small touch to indicate that he never acknowledged cunning's identity outside of being something exploitable. #but for all charity's hidden disdain for cunning #he still stole all his strengths and coveted them. he became known as the fox god. #so maybe some part of cunning survived. despite everything. #“give me your heart.” #“my god. it had always been yours.” #comic art #hearteaters #stillindigo art #stillindigo comics #one more comic to go until im finished with this collection!!

Simon petrikov coping FAIL compilation

#HNNNGGGNNN!! SO MANY THOUGHTS ABOUT EPISODE 2…… #my art #adventure time #fionna and cake #simon petrikov #Fionna and cake spoilers #<- kind of??? maybe not really #I’m so glad ep 2 gave us some insight to that scene in obsidian #it’s such a shift from Simon saying he’d literally rather DIE than be the ice king again #BUT IT MAKES SENSE! #nostalgia can twist your perception of the past #and then mix that in with a metric ton of trauma ! #‘things were simpler back then’ #SIMON 99.5% OF YOUR LIFE AS ICE KING WAS AWFUL…. #I mean in the later seasons he does gradually gain acceptance and fit in with the others #but that just makes the CURRENT simons situation so much sadder it’s like he’s back at square 1 in some ways #WILL THE ISOLATION EVER END? #OK IM DONE RANTING IN THE TAGS

Have you drawn Vittorio before? I'd like to see what he looks like pls.

Vittorio's design has given me more trouble than I expected, I'm still not sure if I'm happy with his looks. He's Machete's trusted personal secretary, a small and modest but resourceful and resilient man. I think he's somewhere in his mid 20's.

#he's mixed breed with strong spitz influence #maybe some papillon type of lap dog in there as well #I'm not sure where he's from #former accountant #his uneasy personality and humble origins mirror Machete in a way #probably one of the reasons he ended up hiring him #Machete himself was his age when he was in a similar situation working as Pope's assistant #own art #own characters #CanisAlbus #Vittorio Tomassetti #Vaschete lore #fic Separation #fic A Voi
