I am endlessly entertained by the Miraculous Ladybug fandom unanimously agreeing that Miracle Queen was Incorrect and all Chloe content from that point on should be ignored

I know how Thomas Astruc feels about Chloé, but honestly? If I didn’t, I’d still hold out a lot of hope for her eventual redemption!
The Miracle Queen plot twist did not really damage my opinion of her. In fact, it kind of makes sense to me: a 14-year-old with abandonment issues would interpret a lack of trust from her idol as rejection. If my memory serves me right, she was the first person to reject an akuma, and understandably feels hurt that her loyalty wasn’t rewarded.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(There are striking similarities between this storyline and Chat Noir’s S4 arc - it would be easy to build from that to bring her back into the light!)
And then there’s this scene in Emotion, where Chloé seems so desperate for connection! She’s surrounded by the rich and famous kids she claims to belong with, and yet she still feels alone. So when she spots what she thinks is a new face, she’s elated and immediately reaches out to her. Just look how excited she is as she grabs Marinette’s arm, compliments her, and tries to find common ground by clumsily mentioning her “underling” - the closest thing she has to an actual friend.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
If Felix, who has done much more questionable things (and who Thomas Astruc apparently also hated for a while), can be redeemed, I don’t see why she couldn’t! There’s definitely enough to work from anyways.

My favorite part of Miracle Queen was that, despite Mayura and Hawkmoth having super powers, they left a fourteen year old girl to try to defeat Ladybug and Chat Noir. Sitting on a rooftop and waiting for Master Fu’s barrier to break was what’s important.

So, I recently got back into Panty and Stocking (I'm excited for Season 2 to be produced by Studio Trigger, the same people who did Kill la Kill) and now, I have a question:
Was Queen Barby from Episode 2 the main inspiration for Chloe?
Like, look how similar they look:

Then, look at their villainous forms:

Not to mention, both have similar powers where they use bees to mind control people:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Honestly, I doubt Thomas Astruc ever heard of Panty and Stocking, but considering how it was release 6 years before Miraculous (Since it was most likely being produced at that time), I'm honestly seeing the connections here.
Again, don't take this post too seriously. I just thought that it was a funny coincidence.

god i just rewatched miracle queen and im so fucking sad like holy shit marinette makes one(1) mistake and things go so wrong and she gets so fucked up like god her caring so much for fu and the tear tracks on her face as she says goodbye to him and the responsibilities and stress of the guardianship being placed on her and her giving up on adrien and the sad parting at the end where he sits next to kagami and marinette sadly goes to luka and god all the parts where she like breaksdown and gets comforted by him and god
its like this is the exact moment things started going way downhill for her, the guardianship and the relationship problems leading to the ladynoir conflict in s4 all the way till marinette is forced into another devastating mistake in strikeback and god she is just constantly being fucked over its insane, s3 she loses the miracle box season four she loses the miracle box season 5 she loses the miracle.
i need s6 to like let us see more into marinette and adriens struggles and trauma.

Yandere Chloé Bourgeois Headcanons.
Warning: Normal Yandere stuff and I don't condone anything that I write about. Some stuff I'm okay with but that's sort of a personal thing and up to the person themselves to decide.
Yandere Chloé Bourgeois. (Aged-up)
Tumblr media
"Is Chloe the best, or is Chloe the best? Hey, I want an answer!"
When a Bourgeois has a goal in mind they will stop at nothing to get it. And Chloe has the means to get what she wants. Adrien Agreste? Who's that? Yesterday's news, an old hat. You? You are her sole focus and you will just have to accept that.
Chloe is the dictionary definition of a Manipulative yandere. Having grown up watching and understanding the game of semantics and politics due to seeing her father do the same thing. Her mother also taught her that if she has to cheat, manipulate, fool, humiliate, and ruin others to achive her goal, then by all means she's to do so. Nothing is out of reach for a Bourgeois.
Chloe's selfishness and pettiness knows no bounds when it comes to her desire have you exist along side her. She puts you on a pedistal high above everyone but Chloe is always above you. Sure she 100% loves and idolizes you but she needs, no she expects you to return her love 1000 times.
She doesn't know the exact moment she fell for you but you are now off limits to everyone else. She's a self-indulgent and manipulative yandere, wanting you to worship her, love her, and shower her with all your love. She deserves it. When you are with her the only things you'll be doing are the things that she's planned out for the two of you and NOTHING will devieate from that plan.
Chloe is a little on the delusional side as she already sees herself as the perfect partner for you. A fine wine to the cheese she sees you as. She 'knows' you love her more then those who just take up your time like they are even worth something so treasured.
I have a question. Do you like gifts? Well you better start because Chloe's love language is gift giving. The latest clothes, jewerly, and electronics to show you that she cares about you. No one else would spend that kind of money on you right? Must be because she cares about you right? You wouldn't reject someone who's willing to do that for you right? It's a fun little trap to keep you from thinking about the darker side she seems to have.
When I said that no one was good enough for you I wasn't kidding. She will use any and all tools at her side to get you all to herself. She'll have dirt dug up on all your friends to expose them as liars to you. And if she can't find any then she'll just make it. She's a grand manipulator and it won't take long for nasty rumours to make their way to your ears.
"I told you they were nothing but trouble for you babe. Come here and give me a hug, Chloe always makes you feel better no?"
She never apologies or feels sorry for any of her actions against others. They were getting in the way and isn't it better to have those 'problems' out of your hair anyways? Chloe gives into her anger when things don't go her way and is known to tear things apart verbally when she's mad.
She needs your attention and validation as much as you need hers. She was neglected by her mother for so long that she doesn't really know to express the sheer need of it. She acts out and lashes with claws and teeth, but in truth she's just a small girl who never got the love and care she would have needed growing up to hopefully develop a normal sense of love.
It leaves her being super clingy with you. If you aren't home then she's by your side. How she just so happens to find you when you are out and about is hard to explain. Always ushering you into her limo to take you somewhere to spend the day. She's sprung many things suddenly on you. Surprise vacations to exotic locations, all 'free of charge' of course. You wouldn't reject her if she does all these things for you right? She hopes that you see it that way.
She's a manipulative woman who does everything wrong to get her way. Just to get your love. She just wants you to love her, to feel whole and to feel safe. She always has her guards up, her claws out. Why can't Chloe have someone she can wrap her arms around, nuzzling into their side, and let herself be vanirable around them?
Chloe doesn't handle rejection well and would laugh if you told her such. She wouldn't believe you at first or even for awhile. But when your words finally hit home it destroys her. She never had good control of her anger and this, this would be the catalist of something bad.
She isn't above kidnapping you. She wouldn't call it that, more the 'nonconsensual moving of you into her home'. It has a better ring to it. She'll lock you there when you just came over for a bit and leave you until you've 'come off that high horse of yours and stopped being a brat.' Since she doesn't see the perfectly reasonable response to being kidnapped to scream and beg to be let go as anything other then you being dramatic. Chloe would never physically harm you but that doesn't mean she won't isolate you. In her mind it's your fault that you are acting this way, not her.
Yandere Antibug. (Aged-up)
Tumblr media
"Don't you hate how harsh love can be?"
Have you ever been unlucky enough to be on the other side of someone's totally unleashed anger and rage? Have you seen the things that person is willing to do and say when they fly into that unstoppable rampage state? This is Antibug to a dime. Antibug is what happens when you reject Chloe too many times, and then have the gull, the AUDACITY to like someone else? No. No that won't be happening.
Antibug is not much different from normal Yandere Chloe, other then she has no issue letting her explosive anger out towards anyone she deems a threat. And when I mean 'take her anger out' I mean violently kill them. She will use her Anti-Charm to give herself a weapon that has no reason to be that big and that violent looking. Unlike when she's normal clingy Chloe, Antibug will slaughter others without much thought. Only that she is doing this for you.
Antibug will kidnap you immediently and bring you to a place where you can't escape from and she can easily get to you using her new found powers and athleticisem. She just doesn't want you walking away from you. You always did that in the past. How could you reject someone who cares about you as much as she did-still does. She just needs you to understand that.
Antibug is less about being manipulative since she knows you won't need any because you already have incentive to stay with her. That being not getting hurt. Antibug also isn't above hurting you. Chloe would never lay a hand on you like that but Antibug will harm you if she has to to keep you. The worst you'll get is a broken arm or leg, but she would do it as quickly as she could. Not wanting to mentally scar you too much with the fact that she'll make you choose which one she breaks.
"No no darling~ You can stop with the tears. I won't be mad at you after you tell me which arm to break. Love, please don't just tremble, I need to hear your words."
You have to be perfect for Antibug, she has no time for your struggling or your wines and tears. She just wants you to behave and give her the love she rightly deserves. She's better then that hack ladybug anyways.
Yandere Queen Bee (Aged-up)
Tumblr media
"I am Chloe Bourgeois and from now on I'll be your new Superhero, Queen Bee! I am more exceptional then any others! So won't you let me be your hero?"
Chloe does know she comes off pretty strong. She has a no nonsense and cut throat attitude when it comes to her everyday life. She's harsh on those around her and doesn't act very well when things don't go her way. But can you really blame her?
Sure she's spoiled rotton with things, luxuary items from her father, trips and vacations to anywhere she desires. But it's all hollow. The love you are suppose to know, the love that a mother can give her child isn't something Chloe is even familiar with. Neglected by someone who should have nurtured her and showed her how proper love and care can make even the darkest of times brighter. She never had someone like that.
She learned very early on that by getting angry and letting her emotions get the better of her then she can have her way. She knows that this isn't the way to do things. She knows it just pushes more and more people away from her. But she just jusitifies that with them not being worthy of her time or effort. If they can't see just how important she is then they don't matter.
That was until she met you. She didn't like you at first but you kept prodding her. You kept being nice, smiling kind, and hell you even laughed when she tried a pointed jab at you. You'd respond with something like "I know you don't mean it, you just want to think that way." Things like that bothered her. You were just 'nice' to her.
At first she throught you had other motives. She's rich and comes from power so of course people would try and push their way into her life. Try and control her. She wouldn't let anyone control her..but you weren't interested in any of that. She wanted to prove you were just in it for the money and would offer you an expensive gift as proof. "I didn't know you liked me that much? I'm honored to accept anything from you."
How does she respond to that? Well she just huffs and walks away of course. She had to save face and all you see. Can't let these commoners see her as anything related to weak. It's hard for Chloe to let herself be weak in front of you, and though you've seen her cheeks pink, she plays it off as the lighting or some other lie.
As Queen Bee however, she can let herself be cute with you. This would take place before Lady takes away her Miraculous. It happened during one of the times Ladybug was fighting one of Hawk Moth's villians and she was tasked with keeping civilians safe and out of harms way. You were one of the ones she saved that day when Prime Queen attacked. She was able to get you out of the blast radius just in time. It ignited a heat in her chest. She was able to touch you in a nice way. She even asked if you were alright, showing like care and stuff.
From then on, anytime she could. Queen Bee would randomly show up where you were. Not that she really needed to be there, but that she wanted to check up on you. Queen Bee is a bit more hands on then Chloe would ever be. She has no issue in getting close to you and being in your personal bubble. She likes to sit beside you and talk, sometimes letting her leg touch yours. The hugging you took some getting used to, it was like hugging someone who wasn't used to it you found.
Pollen is great at helping her express her emotions to you. Saying sweet things about you with actual real meaning behind them for once. The sweet little thing is so helpful for it's Queen.
Queen Bee wanted to be your hero, she knew the others were there and around for longer then her but she wanted to be the only one in your eyes. When Ladybug could pull her away from you, she'd always be looking for you in the crowd. One side of her didn't want you to get hurt and another side wanted to be the only one to save you.
Queen Bee showers in any praise that you are willing to give her. She doesn't use her powers to sneak into your room at night though, no no. She's far above that as a hero. You would've invited her in anyways so she doesn't need to sneak. She can't exist close to you as Chloe but she can like this. It's a little selfish of her to want both types of praise from you. Since she isn't able to openly accept it as Chloe.
If you do like her as either Chloe or Queen Bee, she's reveal to you that she is one or the other. Hearing that you actually do like her back would just be enough for her. She'd be able to hug you with meaning in front of everyone. Not scared to show her affection. The sudden change from her normal bratness to this cute ball of love and affection is jarring for most people. But she doesn't care. She wants to drown in your love as much as she can. Like you are the only source of joy in her life. You exist to fill the empty void in her heart that she didn't even know was empty.
If you reject her, even after she reveals herself to you. She won't think. Her Vemon will come out and she'll use it to paralyze you. She didn't mean to do it, freezing your body stiff. She just panicked.
"No no..no you can't..you can't please don't say that. I…I did everything right…w..why can't you just love me!"
Like Chloe she'll kidnap you and bring you to her home. Keeping you there by force if she has to. She didn't want to, everything was going oh so well. But now, now everything just needs to be fixed. It just needs a little time. You'll see her as your hero, yeah..she's sure of it. She didn't ruin everything..you'll accept her like you always do. Even if she has to keep using Venom on you, she'll do so if it keeps you with her. She can't continue on without you.
Yandere Queen Wasp (Aged-Up)
Tumblr media
"Isn't this like a fairy tale? Having a Queen fall in love with you my dear? Then why don't you look happy?"
When Queen Wasp decides that you belong to her, you will instantly know it. Her swarms of wasps will explode throughout the area, stinging anyone that stands in her way of you. She will leave nothing standing in the way of you. Unlike Antibug, Queen Wasp won't kill anyone who tries to take you from her, or help you escape her. You don't need to escape, you are safe enough with her. You'll be upset at her in the beginning, of course you would be. Seeing your family and friends attacked and falling to these wasps as they circle around you and keep you caged enough for Chloe to do what she needed to do to get to you.
She knows you are upset at her, of course you would. The girl who knew as Chloe just burst into your home, declared her love for you, and attacked everyone else you cared about. You couldn't get away from her as she had you stung the second you showed any signs of fleeing her. Queen Wasp took you into her arms, content to finally have you as she took you away from your home.
She'd take you far away, even away from Paris. She'd have you set up in one of her family's homes where it's just you, her, and a staff too scared to stop her. Queen Wasp is the only one that demands you refer to her as Queen and not by Chloe. Since you rejected her when she was Chloe. So now she's different so just love her alright?
One of the more demanding versions of her Yandere sides. She demands you love and devotion to her. She won't have your eyes straying from her or allow you to leave her. You are to either stand beside her or kneel when she is sitting. Queen Wasp treats you more like a pet if anything. A treasured pet I'm sure but a pet none the less. You had a chance to be loved normally by her, have a happy little relationship but you've decided to ruin it all by being the way you are. You will be reminded by her hurt feelings from that first rejection but it doesn't mean she hates you. She'll tell you over and over again that she loves you.
However, she won't take anymore of your harsh words. If you want to be mean to her, she'll be mean to you. Your friends and family might get hurt if you keep talking and acting like someone so ungrateful. You wouldn't want that right? Of course not. So just be good for her and she won't have to use the back of her hand on you.
Yandere Miracle Queen. (Aged-Up)
Tumblr media
"Sting them! Sting them all! You won't have anyone left but me!"
Unlike Queen Wasp that will harm people physically, Miracle Queen is more likely to harm you with other people. She's quick to Brainwash those who are close to you. Friends at first. Using her power to have them distance themselves from you. And if that doesn't work she commands them to bully and pick on you. She doesn't want to make you feel this way but it's the only way for you to understand that you need to be with her.
The next step is doing that with your family. Having them act cold to you will make it hurt that much more. With no friends or even family wanting to spend time with you, you are pretty much stuck with Chloe, with Miracle Queen. She's the only one that will be nice to you. She's the only one who's shoulder you can cry on when being alone fills you with too much internal dread.
Miracle Queen is a bit like Queen Bee in how she acts around you. Since she wants to be the sweet one in your eyes. The ONLY one that seems to actually want to spend time with you. With how badly things are at home when Chloe offers you to move in you jump at the chance. You might just be friends at this point but it's a mark in Miracle Queen's court.
"Nobody loves you like I do. It sucks that you have to see and hear it from people who don't care about you like I do…but I do care about you. You mean the world to me."
Chloe won't waste precious seconds with other people, they are stung and sent away. You are the only and sole focus she has anymore. She doesn't need to kidnap you or keep you locked up. You have no one to go to other then her. Even if you find someone it's never long till you are dropped like an old hate.
Yandere Queen Banana. (Aged-Up)
Tumblr media
"Banana Boom-Boom! Grab them before they can get away!"
Nobody else matters to her anymore when she can be with you. They can all be turned into Banana's for all she cares and she does. So they will be. She'll do this to everyone who comes near you if she has to. Doesn't matter if they were trying to take you away from her, protect her from you, anything. If they breathe then they get bananaified.
And don't you dare think you can just run away from her. Not only will she chase you down in her go-kart. Her giant gorilla will chase you down and rip you out of any hidy-hole you happen to hold yourself up in. She has every right to claim you and she shall.
"Don't find my love a'peeling? I'm not the worst Banana in the bunch you know."
Picture a city so silent, no one around other then you, her, and her ape. She'll set you up in the best view in the now lifeless city. She'll give you the world just as long as you don't mind nothing being in it.
If you promise to be good then she won't turn anyone else into a banana, she promises, and Chloe always keeps her promises..right? As long as you are good she'll take you to a city that's full of life and people. Under warning that if you break the trust you have then she'll be forced to do it all over again, leaving you tied up in her kart so you can watch your mistakes.
Yandere Penalty. (Aged-Up)
Tumblr media
"Can you really handle all of me? All of us?"
Penalty and Penalteam is a mix of all of her emotions into one. You thought one Chloe was hard to deal with when only one of her was around? Guess you're in for a rude awakening. Having ten of the same person around all the time can get a bit much, more so when they won't let you be anywhere else. Can just you take down ten of her? It's a nice thought to think about but it just won't be happening.
She'll block you from trying to escape wherever she's had you taken. You'll never be alone in anything that you do anymore. Two of her at the very least will be with you regardless of where or what you do. You aren't even safe in the bathroom when it comes to her. What would you have to do by yourself that you'd need to be alone for anyways?
Penalty is the most hands on out of all her versions. She will never not have a reason to be touching you. It starts off with a hand on your shoulder or a leg touching you. But it slowly pushes past any line you wouldn't want her to cross. Hands touching your back or holding your waist. One of them always finds you in her lap or she's in yours.
Penalty is here to take care of each and everyone of your needs but you have to remember that she has needs as well. They will spoon feed you, dress you in the morning, and don't get me started on the group baths. You know when I said she'll spend more of her time touching you? Well her hands will move further down and against areas that you don't want her to. If you try and push her away the others will drop what they are doing to hold you while you struggle. They will wait for you to be out of energy before they continue touching you.
"Trophy is not a good enough word to describe you love. But I'll always take you home."
Any and all times you voice your dislike for something, Penalty will always do the right thing by you and put it to a vote. It's always a 10/1 vote with you being the one that loses however. But hey, she told you she'd be fair with it.
You will never be alone with her around, you physically can't be. The each share a personality and sometimes fight with each other. Always over you though. They are the only ones you can be with and still they can't get enough of your time and presence.
You have so many versions of Chloe to choose from. Which one will you be unlucky or lucky to get?

Can holders change their appearance the same way Adrien did in Kuro Neko?
Yes! One could either change their costume slightly if they just want an upgrade and still be recognized, or they can pull a Catwalker and change their costume completely and be seen as a completely new hero.
This kind of costume change actually has some minor plot relevance in this AU, as Chloe pulls this off to become Honeybee so she can still use the Bee without Hawk Moth knowing her identity. (Zoe is part of the New York heroes in this AU.)

There’s been a recurring tread in Fandom Discouse(TM) or Fanwank for those who tell it like it is. And it revolves around Redemption Arcs.
These type of stories have been the most controversial on various levels for good reasons. It often comes down to how we may identify with or project onto the character in question and the discomfort it may bring.
Specifically in regards to characters that may hit too close to home. Characters who are very much perpetrators of conflict and violence rather than victims. They hurt others for their gain be they sociopathic or just apathetic to what they wrought.
Many have dealt with these precise people in their lives and will thus have very strong words to say when a character of similar attributes appears to be turning themselves around. There will be some deliberation over how “earned” it felt on a narrative level but either way, they are on a better path in life.
For these aforementioned fans among others, it’s a difficult pill to swallow… if not one they nearly choke on. In their eyes, this character is barely even human but a monster in every sense of the word. They’ve hurt characters they love. They’ve either enjoyed it or brushed it off in indifference.
Where does Chloe factor into this? Well… it fascinates me that we got a circle of fandom that advocates for a character, a female character no less, and their could’ve-been development from Mandy but crossing way more lines.
She’s the inciting incidents for nearly every Akuma in Season 1 and is almost intentional about it. While Season 2 would humanize her and show a likely source of her behavior, I have seen more characters get shit for far less and they would rarely mean the things they say or do when in a mood.
There’s also the, um, gender thing. It have especially been my and others observations that a female character is likely to have a borderline hate campaign against them for either exhibiting a trait that male characters will get a pass for or just… making a mistake.
My Adventures With Superman subverted the very long standing secret identity dynamic Clark had with Lois Lane by having the aspiring journalist put the pieces together fast.
Her reaction to Clark not being straight with her was hardly terribly welcoming, especially given her father being deceptive with her. The Fandom’s reaction was extra less welcoming and overlooked her possible complexes over liars in favor of her behavior.
So… why is Chloe somehow exempt? There are likely multiple factor but I think there's a large one that's gone underexamined.
Obviously there's the feeling of being cheated out of a redemption storyline that Season 2 seemed to kick start. Yet it's not like Season 3 just had her be mean again out of the blue. Chloe is still very much a brat even if Despair Bear, Zombizou and her Queen Bee trilogy had her take a good look at herself.
Old habits die hard. Hawk Moth just took the time in Season 3 to gradually give said habits a clean bill of health.
My observations of Fandom Culture at large leads me to feel like Chloe's case is about less what did happen and was undone but more like what seemed to be happening but didn't. Fandom loves the hypothetical. The theories, the speculation. A lot of it is very personalized even when fans come together to pitch their own takes.
As such, there's a personal investment factor in these malleable concepts that's distinct from engaging in the hardwared canon. It's a sandbox where the material you're working with can be molded into what suits you. Canon can be too often, "Here it is: take it or leave it." Fanon is more accomadating to those who might want to change things.
Bare in mind, I'm not trying to advocate for one or the other here. Fanon depends on canon, warts and all, and a Fandom can't flourish without it period. But sometimes we mistake Fanon for what should happen and ignore the innate placeholder status they have. Thus Canon is seen as an intrusion when, well, it's just the show itself.
Another reason may be because for all the grouching about redemption arcs, we've... rarely seen such backslide let alone one that sticks considerably. We've had our Majin Vegetas and Book 2 Finale!Zukos but rarely have we (outside of specific circumstances and specific mediums) had a redemption arc reverse course.
As such, many seem keen to ignore how organic the journey from Queen Bee to Miracle Queen really was. Her insistence of joining the fray with Ladybug, her tendency to shoot her mouth with a sharp tongue to boot returning more like in Stormy Weather 2, making a Bee Signal of all things.
The ground work was laid for Queen Wasp's return and the soil was beyond fertile. Thus her villain arc for Season 4 and 5 involves tripling down on her banal evil from brainstorming Marinette's fall, getting evilized intentionally and keeping Sabrina from sleeping (boy howdy, was Chloe lucky she didn't go to her dad, A police officer :P).
Now... nobody needs to like this or stop disliking what they dislike. It just would be nice if considering other perspectives and looking beyond one's expectations was encouraged.

I've got another theory about Chloé Bourgeois!
Chloé is not only a Senti-Being, but she's also been her own handler since she was six years old.
Tumblr media
This would explain her childish mindset (believing in Santa Claus and cooties, and still sucks her thumb), despite being a fourteen year old girl.
André knowing what the Peacock Miraculous does, made Chloé her own handler in hopes of keeping her his "little princess" for much longer.
Tumblr media
I don't think even he knew how she'd turn out when she got older.
Headcanon: The day Audrey left, Chloé hugged Mr. Cuddly tight while saying something like "Be more like mommy and she'll come back" repeatedly, which caused her to turn out more like Audrey despite her mother not being around to actually influence her. She didn't know she was commanding herself magically.
Everything that happened with Adrien and Félix with those rings, happened to Chloé with Mr. Cuddly.
Butler Jean temporarily became Chloé's handler and tries to use Mr. Cuddly to make her a nicer person. Much to the teen's dismay.
He's basically commanding her with the bear!
Tumblr media
Also, look at this face on Chloé when she looks into the bear's diamond eyes. It almost looks like she's under a magic spell!
Tumblr media
As the episode went on Chloé started to slowly but surely fights off the amok's control due to feeling embarrassed by her more immature and softer side being showed to others (she wanted to be like Audrey SO BAD).
Tumblr media
This leads to Chloé firing the Butler, something that Audrey would've done.
Without being controlled by her amok, Chloé let's Marinette dance with Adrien & she was able to even save Ladybug during the fight, but then starts pouting like a child when she wasn't being praised for it.
The akuma Despair Bear interests me a bit.
Instead of giving him the power to make Chloé nicer by giving her a mini bear hug or something, Gabriel gives Jean the power to CONTROL anyone so he could get closer to Chloé.
Also, if you wanna ask "How come Despair Bear wasn't being used to control Chloé?". Because at that moment Jean wasn't focusing on controlling Chloé, he was focused on getting revenge on her.
Tumblr media
For those who are asking "If the Amok's in the bear, then why didn't it come out along with the butterfly?" Because the akuma was in the thread of the bear and NOT one of the diamond eyes, which is where I think the amok is located.
I think that Ladybug briefly became Chloé's handler by accident and since Ladybug is someone Chloé looks up to, Chloé was gonna do what she can to make her happy. Which "somehow" included letting Tom Dupain to teach the class how to make macaroons at her party.
Tumblr media
Then went back to her own original command to be more like Audrey and starts insulting everyone's baked goods.
Now on to Heroes' Day Part 2, where the hint was so direct, it's absolutely WILD!
MR. CUDDLY WAS DIRECTLY USED TO CONTROL CHLOÉ IN THE SAME EPISODE MAYURA MADE HER DEBUT!!!!
Tumblr media
Coincidence? I DON'T THINK SO!!
Alot happened with Chloé in the Episode "Miracler"
Tumblr media
She rejects the opportunity to hold her supposed amok.
She fights off being Akumatized by Hawkmoth.
Before Félix's debut, she was the closest character to getting her hands on the Peacock Miraculous (Senti-Teens really wanna get their hands on this one).
Note: Instead of immediately leaving with the Bee Miraculous, Mayura offers Chloé a spot on Hawkmoth's team. Did she want control of supposedly another Senti-Teen?!
Speaking of Chloé in the third season...
What was the akuma power she got from Hawkmoth after losing fate and trust in Ladybug for not giving her what she wanted?
Tumblr media
THE POWER TO CONTROL PEOPLE! SOUND FAMILIAR?!
Tell me what you guys think!

Abuse of Power
(Contains Chloe Salt, Lila Salt, Bustier Salt, Damocles Salt, and Mayor Bourgeois Salt.)
If there was one thing that all of the heroes hated, it would be anyone that would get away with their crimes. After all, if they were allowed to get away with everything that they do, then they would most likely grow up to be criminals since they would actually believe that they could get away with these things because they have gotten away with things for their entire lives.
White Wolf and Beautifly did not have much experience with that. At least, other than the queen bee wannabes back in their home country that tried to get away with their actions but was actually punished by their parents, teachers, or both. So, it was sadly something that was really only a big problem in Paris.
And the problem's name is Chloe Bourgeois.
Chloe definitely has had a very complicated last couple of years. Her mom had left her and her father for a long time to run her fashion critic business in New York until returning the previous year. And during that time, Chloe had become one of the biggest bullies in Paris that constantly used the fact that since her father is the mayor, she can do whatever she wants and always gets away with everything she does. But then she had accidentally discovered the bee miraculous, transforming into the hero Queen Bee on live television. She actually then started to get better as a person until Ladybug decided to no longer give her the bee miraculous because her identity was known.
Things had started off with the usual Chloe reactions. She whined, complained, and threw tantrums that a five-year-old would be jealous of. She also started to demand that Ladybug give her back the bee miraculous. She even went as far as to get a Bat Signal-like light to shine a bee symbol into the sky every single akuma attack to try and get Ladybug to give her back the miraculous. Like everything else in her life, Chloe felt entitled to the bee miraculous and had pretty much tried to claim it as her own despite how it did not actually belong to her.
And the longer that Ladybug went without giving it to her, the more bitter that she got. Even after being told by Ladybug that she would not get the miraculous back, she still would constantly demand the miraculous to be given back to her. It was the first time that she had ever been denied anything in her life since she usually got everything she wanted because of her father spoiling her.
So, she had done the unthinkable. When Hawkmoth managed to get his hands on the Miracle Box, he went to Chloe and offered her the bee miraculous in exchange for her teaming up with him. And she did with almost no hesitation at all. She let him akumatize her into Miracle Queen, which was basically an upgraded version of her Queen Wasp akuma form. Her swarm of magical bees could control people.
She used her powers to take control of nearly everyone in Paris. But the worst part was that because Hawkmoth had the Miracle Box, she had exposed all of the temporary heroes. Meaning that Rena Rouge, Carapace, Viperion, Ryuko, Pegasus, and King Monkey could no longer be called upon because that would put them and their families in danger.
Now, it was back to being just Ladybug, Cat Noir, White Wolf, and Beautifly. And while four heroes were better than two, it was still not as good as when they had an entire team behind them.
Now, one would think that things might have been looking up at least a little bit. Such as Chloe now actually getting punished for what she had done. And without Chloe, that would mean fewer akumas being caused because she would not be around to bully others. But, that would be wrong.
Once again, Chloe was being allowed to get away with everything that she had done. Her father and the police all refused to do anything to punish her. Of course, most of the police wanted her charged, or punished in some way, but the mayor and Lieutenant Raincomprix both did everything they could to prevent that.
It was driving almost everyone in Paris crazy. Everyone knew about Chloe teaming up with Hawkmoth and yet nothing could be done because of how corrupt her father was.
Of course, that was nothing compared to just completely and utterly PISSED that Alya was. She had been a superhero, a dream that she had since was a little kid, and that had been taken from her because of Chloe. With her identity exposed to Hawkmoth, she and the other temporary heroes could not get their miraculous again since Hawkmoth knew their identities. It would put them and their families in danger if Ladybug tried to keep them on the team. If the rest of Paris was ready to riot, Alya was ready to go to war in order for Chloe to be punished finally.
And as for the remaining heroes, they were clueless about what to do. Yes, they were looked up to by almost all of Paris as well as being seen as the only way to fight against akumas since the police could not fight against their powers. But, at the same time, they did not actually have any real authority. So, as much as they want Chloe to finally face some consequences, they did not have the power to do so. At least, not in the normal sense, anyway.
"No, you can not turn her into an ice statue," Ladybug tells White Wolf for what felt like the millionth time.
"Why not," White Wolf pouted like a little kid. "She deserves it and it's not like she would actually die since my Winter's Touch power is magical and it would be more like she is frozen in time."
"You gotta admit, m'lady, that it is a very tempting offer," Cat Noir snickered.
"Am I the only sane one here," Ladybug asked, looking up at the sky.
"Yes," Beautifly answered. "Yes, you are."
"Just be lucky that White Wolf is the one offering t use his power and not me," Cat Noir stated. "Though, using Cataclysm on her is also very tempting."
The four heroes were at the top of the Eiffel Tower talking about what they could possibly do. They were currently lucky that Hawkmoth has not made any more moves yet, but that did not mean that they were not on high alert. Not only did he still have Chloe as someone he could akumatize at any time because she was willing to team up with him, but he also had Master Fu's tablet with the translated Miraculous Spellbook on it. With it, he could repair the peacock miraculous and they could be seeing a lot more sentimonster in the future.
"We need an actual legal way to handle this," Ladybug tells them. "We may have these powers, but that does not make us above the law. We'd be no better than Hawkmoth if we use our powers in that way."
"What legal way do we even have when it comes to Chloe," White Wolf crossed his arms. "With her father and Raincomprix doing everything they can to keep her from having any type of consequences, there is nothing we can do."
"Literally all of Paris knows what Chloe did and still nothing is being done about it because of them," Beautifly said.
"Not to mention how her teacher and that principal at her school have also been protecting her," Cat Noir added. "I have heard how they have been pretty much a protection force for her at school. Especially since Alya is REALLY mad about no longer being able to be a hero."
"I heard that Alya and Kim have both gotten more detentions than anyone else has all year because of the number of confrontations that they have with Chloe," Beautifly says.
"Can't we try and use the temporary heroes to get Chloe punished," Ladybug did not want to try and resort to anything underhanded. "They all witnessed what Chloe had done after they got unhypnotized. They know that she did not forget what she had done, unlike all other akumas. And such witnesses like that are very strong in court."
"Except that, it could easily be explained that they could be lying about Chloe in order to just get her in trouble," White Wolf says. "Alya and Kim were both akumatized because of Chloe. Luka's sister was akumatized because of Chloe. Max is friends with both Kim and Alix, who were also akumatized because of Chloe. Nino would also be upset about Alya being akumatized because of Chloe. Kagami might be the only one that could work, but they could still say that she is trying to lie because she is jealous about Chloe being so close to Adrien."
"As much as I hate to admit it, White Wolf is right," Cat Noir said. "I hate not being able to do anything, but Chloe has been getting away with everything for too long."
"Not to mention how much of a toxic cycle seems to happen around her," Beautifly says. "Almost every adult around her bends to will. Her father, Raincomprix, Bustier, Damocles. With so many adults that constantly do whatever she wants, it is a cycle that almost never ends because it repeats itself over and over again."
"And me giving her back the bee miraculous multiple times probably did not help that," Ladybug facepalmed. "I knew her identity was known and yet I went right to her when her father was akumatized. If I had gone to someone else and never gave her back the bee miraculous after she became Queen Wasp, this might not have happened."
"Look, as much as White Wolf and I usually disagree with a lot of your actions, this was almost all Chloe's fault," Beautifly tells the ladybug hero. "Yes, you made the wrong decision to give the miraculous back to Chloe during Maladiktator and even during Heroes Day as well, but Chloe made all her own choices."
"If anyone is at fault, it's the adults around her," White Wolf said. "Between her father always giving her everything she wants, her teacher telling all her bullying victims to forgive her, and Damocles never letting anyone punish her, Chloe grew into the most entitled person in Paris. She fully believed that she could get whatever she wanted just because she wanted it. So, when you denied her the bee miraculous, that was probably the first time in her life that she was ever denied anything. And she couldn't handle that."
"It definitely explains a lot," Cat Noir says. "I have lived in Paris all my life, so I have also known about Chloe for all that time as well. Whenever she is denied anything even slightly, even something as simple as just having free time, she will go to any lengths to get what she wants."
"That explains that fire department incident that happened before Despair Bear," Ladybug said. "As if Chloe would ever be willing to stand around and be taught how to bake something. She would never want to 'get her hands dirty.' Plus, it is well known how much she hates the Dupain-Cheng family and the Tom Dupain was the one teaching that class."
"I have had their pastries before and it is no wonder why they are known as the best in Paris," Cat Noir was currently looking very hungry.
"We'll get you a bowl of milk later, kitty," White Wolf teased the black cat hero. "For now, we need to find a way to get Chloe to actually pay for what she has done."
"There has to be some way to override the mayor," Beautifly says. "If he won't do anything, there has to be someone in power that would be able to finally have Chloe dealt with."
"Well, why not go to the president," Cat Noir suggested. "His name is Emmanuel Macron, right?"
Literally, all three other heroes facepalmed at the suggestion. It was so simple that they were annoyed that none had thought of it sooner. Ladybug was especially annoyed because she had lived in Paris all her life and yet she did not think of that. There was a reason why she was the one with the Lucky Charms. Because she was built more for complicated plans that always worked out in the end. Cat Noir was definitely a lot more simple when it came to any plans that he came up with. 
"He is aware of what has been going on in Paris," Ladybug said. "Especially after what happened in New York, which almost caused an international incident since a French terrorist almost caused World War III."
"He would be the one to have more power than the mayor," White Wolf says. "Maybe if we go to him, he could actually do something about Chloe. Especially if we give him any and all evidence that we can gather."
"Witness statements from civilians that saw Chloe's behavior after she was de-akumatized," Beautifly started a list. "Video statements from the temporary heroes. Character witnesses from her classmates. And we can also provide statements as well since we saw everything as well. There might even be some street cameras that recorded everything as well."
"And isn't Max, who was Pegasus, a computer expert," Cat Noir remembered. "He does have that little robot boy with him all the time. Maybe he could help with that."
Since Adrien was in class with Max, he knew very well to not call Markov a "thing" or anything else that would make it appear like he thought Markov was an object. He really liked the little AI and found him adorable. And since Markov was able to be akumatized, he certainly was not fully a robot since he had actual working emotions.
"Maybe this time, there will be some actual punishment that will stick," Ladybug said.
*****
The four heroes all did as much work as they could. Especially since things in Paris were only getting worse because of Chloe and her father.
Chloe had pretty much ramped up her bullying into physical abuse. She now believed that she was utterly invincible since she got away with helping Hawkmoth. She constantly tripped Juleka and Rose whenever they were walking to their desks. She ripped up three of Nathaniel's sketchbooks, including one that had the newest drawings for his and Marc's comic. She dumped a bucket of paint onto a dress that Marinette had been designing in the art room. She had used her influence over Damocles to get Mylene banned from being in any school play. Not to mention also using her influence over Damocles to get Nino's headphones, Alix's skates, Rose's perfume, and even Markov all confiscated and locked in Damocles' office "because they annoyed her."
Her father was no better. Many of his staff members at both City Hall and at the hotel have quit in protest of how corrupt he was and how he handled everything his daughter did. But when they did that, the mayor then had them blacklisted from the careers that they had the most experience in and from jobs that related to the careers that they loved. They all had to settle for jobs that they hated but had to do to support their families. Alya had to convince her mother not to quit the hotel because she knew how much her mother loved being a chef. She could not imagine the pain her mother would feel if she was blacklisted from being a chef anywhere since it was her mother's dream. Not even her hatred of Chloe would make her put her mother through that.
The heroes all worked to gather as much evidence as they could to bring to the president. 
Ladybug recorded all of the temporary heroes. Not only to get their statements about what had happened during Miracle Queen but to also ask them about any and all experiences they had with Chloe or her father. Beautifly was the one that went to Max, after she had also rescued Markov from Damocles, and had him check street cameras to see what they saw. And to their luck, the camera caught the entire battle with both perfect audio and visual proof of Chloe's actions. White Wolf and Cat Noir were the ones that got statements from regular civilians about things they all knew and had seen both Chloe and her father do. The ones blacklisted by the mayor were more than happy to spill all the tea that they had on him not to mention how there were dozens of people that had something to say about Chloe and her behavior.
They did not even have to wait a week before they had more than enough evidence on both members of the Bourgeois family. It was very ironic that someone as horrible as Audrey "Style Queen" Bourgeois was actually the nicest of the family after everything they discovered about Chloe and the mayor.
They gathered at the Eiffel Tower again, Ladybug holding the horse miraculous so that they could teleport right to the president. All they did was nod at each other before Ladybug combined her miraculous with the horse so that they could open the portal. Ladybug used Voyage and the portal was opened.
Macron nearly jumped out of his skin when a bright blue portal opened up in his office. Papers were literally thrown into the air when he jumped. He was about to yell for his guards and press the alarm button until he saw who stepped out of the portal. He was shocked to see the four heroes come into his office.
"Sorry to burst in on you like this, Mr. President, but we had no other choice," Ladybug tells him.
"Ladybug, Cat Noir, White Wolf, Beautifly," Macron greeted all of them. "I am already aware of Hawkmoth, so what else would there be for you to talk to me about."
"We have recently battled and defeated someone that was a willing accomplice to Hawkmoth," Cat Noir tells him. "And because of this person, all of our temporary heroes have had their identities exposed, which puts their lives and the lives of their families in danger."
"This person also caused the previous Guardian of the Miraculous to give up his role and his memories in order to keep Hawkmoth from getting his hands on the rest of the miraculous," Beautifly adds. "With the role being passed to Ladybug, that puts more responsibility on her shoulders, which means less focus on finding out who Hawkmoth is."
Macron listened to them and he was honestly shocked. He ordered the mayor to keep him updated constantly on the actions of Hawkmoth. He wanted to make sure that he knew if the terrorist had a rise in power that could spread his akumas beyond Paris and into other parts of France. So, for him to not know that there was someone that willingly worked with the terrorist was shocking to him.
"If you have defeated this person, then why come to me," he asked them. "Were you somehow aware that I did not know about this?"
"We took an educated guess that you were not told based on who this person was," White Wolf stated. "But this person is exactly why we are here."
"Who is the person that worked with Hawkmoth," Macron asked them.
The heroes all shared a look with each other, getting as serious as they could.
"Chloe Bourgeois," Ladybug tells him. "The daughter of the mayor. And that is probably also why you were not told about her teaming up with Hawkmoth."
Macron definitely did not expect that. He had met Chloe a few times when he visited the mayor of Paris as part of how he always checks in on the leaders of individual cities as part of his responsibilities to all of France. He needed to make sure every city had the best leader they could have. And while he thought that Mayor Bourgeois lacked a spine when it came to his daughter, he was definitely a lot better than that fencing teacher that wanted to turn back time to the dark ages since that was when his ancestor ruled Paris with an iron fist.
"I am aware of Miss. Bourgeois's behavior problems, but are you sure that she was willing," Macron had to make sure. "After all, I am aware that akuma victims always forget everything that happened while they were akumatized."
The heroes all nodded, making the president worry.
"Chloe was different than all other akumas," White Wolf said. "All akumas have completely different personalities since their negative emotions are enhanced when akumatized. It is why they have such a drive to seek revenge, deliver justice, seek out the truth, and every other goal that they have when akumatized. But, Chloe was exactly the same while she was Miracle Queen."
Ladybug placed her yo-yo onto the president's desk. Her yo-yo was the easiest device to use to present their evidence since it came with a very easy-to-use holographic screen that appears over the regular screen when it is needed. Since all their communicators were connected, Beautifly sent the video that she had gotten from Max and the camera to Ladybug's yo-yo to be played. 
Macron watched the video. He easily recognized Chloe since she looked a lot like herself even when akumatized. He was visually horrified when he watched her out all of the temporary heroes right in front of Hawkmoth and Mayura. And he was only made even angrier when he saw how all of them were teenagers, which meant that they and their families would only be even more helpless without them being able to use the miraculous anymore.
He did think that it seemed like every other akuma fight that he was aware of. Sure, Chloe did act the same as she normally did, but that was not real proof. It was only when it reached later in the video that he got the biggest shock.
"As you can see, Chloe remembered everything even after she was de-akumatized," Beautifly said. "And even after she was defeated, she actually tried to grab onto another akuma that Hawkmoth sent to her. But after Ladybug stopped her, she tried to use all the miraculous at once to get the upper hand. It was a good thing that she did not know the transformation phrases nor knew how to fuse the miraculous together. If she did, we would have been in trouble."
"I can not believe that a teenage girl would actually team up with a terrorist," Macron was so shocked.
"That is because Chloe wanted the bee miraculous," Ladybug tells him. "But, that is partially my fault. I had gotten the bee miraculous from the Guardian to use against Chloe's mother when she was akumatized into a very powerful villain. But, in all the chaos, I lost it when it was knocked out of my hands and it fell down the Eiffel Tower. Chloe found it and then transformed into the hero, Queen Bee, on live television."
"I am already aware of her being Queen Bee," Macron says. "I don't think anyone in France is unaware of that."
"But that is part of the problem," Ladybug continued. "Chloe might have been trying to impress her mother that way, but she also did not know how to actually be a hero since that would actually require her to be selfless. But she only knows how to be selfish. Her first 'act' as a hero was trying to save a subway train from crashing, but it was only going to crash because Chloe used her miraculous power to paralyze the driver. A lot of people could have been hurt or even killed because of her actions."
"And not only that, but Chloe also refused to give back the bee miraculous when Ladybug and I went to get it from her after we saved the train," Cat Noir said. "After that, she had been akumatized into Queen Wasp. We managed to get the miraculous back after that, but Ladybug was forced to give the bee miraculous back to Chloe during Maladiktator and Heroes Day. Because of that, Chloe felt entitled to the bee miraculous and had claimed it as her own even when it never belonged to her."
"But, Chloe could not accept that," White Wolf says. "Even when Ladybug told her that she would not be given the bee miraculous again, she still believed that it was hers. She even got a bat-signal-type spotlight to shine a bee symbol into the sky whenever an akuma happened in hope of getting the bee miraculous again. But, the thing was, she never said it was to get THE bee miraculous back but to get HER miraculous back. She actually believed that it belonged to her. And the more that Ladybug denied her that, the angrier she got."
"Chloe had never been denied anything in her life," Ladybug said. "She has gotten away with bullying, cheating, threatening others, abusing others, and has basically turned her school into a living hell for everyone around her."
"And even before that, Chloe was basically a human breeding ground for akumas," Cat Noir added. "She has caused the most akumas out of everyone else that has ever caused one. Especially since others are usually caused by accidents, misunderstandings, or just general bad days. But with Chloe, she treats people so badly that it is a shock whenever she is actually not the cause of an akuma."
Cat Noir then put up the videos that he and White Wolf had from the interviews that they did with the civilians. Macron was shown many people that had been affected by both Chloe and her father.
"She locked me in the bathroom just so that she could stand next to her obsession in the class picture," Juleka said.
"She made fun of my stage fright and tried to replace me in a class movie we were doing just so she could force a kiss on Adrien," Mylene says.
"She called me a monster just because I was the first person akumatized," Ivan added.
"She once told me 'once a villain, always a villain' because I became Stormy Weather and yet she was akumatized more times than me," Aurore said.
"She pretended to be Ladybug during an interview that I was having just so that she could lie about 'Ladybug' being best friends with 'Chloe'," Jagged Stone said.
"She got my music video shut down and also basically banned me from performing in Paris just because she did not get to play Ladybug in my music video," Clara Nightingale says.
"She got my dad fired just because he would not investigate someone that she accused of stealing even when there was no evidence," Sabrina looked like she had not stopped crying for days. 
"She ripped up my letter to Prince Ali when I asked her to give it to him when she was meeting him," Rose never liked talking bad about anyone, but Chloe was her exception. 
"She destroyed my family heirloom just because she did not think it was worth anything since I was the one that owned it," Alix was still furious even when the miraculous cure had fixed her watch.
"She outed my old crush on a friend, vandalized one of my drawings, and insulted my art as a whole all on my birthday," Nathaniel was speaking up instead of being shy this time.
Of course, White Wolf and Cat Noir also got interviews with Marinette, Adrien, Lyon, and Vallia. Since the civilian interviews were separate from the former hero interviews, they had to be interviewed as well. Lucky for them that Cat Noir managed to make up a good enough excuse when Adrien needed to be interviewed and the same was said about the other heroes as well.
Adrien had put up with a lot from Chloe. He believed that she was a good person since that was the side that he knew from all the years he had with her since she was his childhood friend. But now, there are some things that not even he could explain, excuse, or forgive. Nino is his best friend while Alya, Kim, Luka, and Max were also his friends. And Kagami was very special to him. He would NEVER be able to forgive Chloe for outing them as heroes and putting their lives in danger like that.
"She tried to have our father's flower shop in Paris closed down because he would not sell her a rare Ghost Orchid flower that was well known to be at the Garden Family Sanctuary back in Greece," Lyon says.
"She tried to steal the family medallions that my brother and I wear because she wanted the sapphire and rose quartz gemstones that they are made out of," Vallia said.
"She clings onto me as if I am some type of trophy to be won," Adrien shivered and rubbed his arm that Chloe usually grabs onto. "She has also lied to tons of people about me being in love with her. She even tricked me into signing a poster that she had already written a declaration of love onto as a fake Valentine's Day present from me. I've been her friend since we were kids, but I can no longer make any excuses for her. She dug herself into this hole and now she has to lie in it."
"She has been nothing but a bullying, spoiled, heartless, brat for over ten years," Marinette really needed to get it off her chest. "It's one thing to just be either copying her mother or lashing out at the world because of her mother leaving their family for New York, but what Chloe has become reaches FAR beyond anything that either of those things could explain. She stole one of my designs for a fashion design contest and tried to pass it off as her own. She sabotaged my great uncle in a cooking competition just because he was making something she did not like on top of how he was related to me. She's gotten over sixteen people akumatized, including almost her entire class, her own father, and so many others. My parents were on that train that she tried to crash just to show off her miraculous powers in front of her mother. She tried to get me banished from Paris just because I said that she was not a hero. I once said that Chloe did not have a heart, and Chloe has never done anything but prove me right."
And then the videos changed to the interviews that the two male heroes did with those that were affected by the mayor. And while there were not as many as those who there was against Chloe, there were still a lot of people that hated her father. And it was not just hatred, as they actually did all have real issues with Mayor Bourgeois. 
There were plenty of people that spoke out about how he blacklisted them from the careers that they were good at and what they dreamed of doing. And it was just because they quit since they did not approve of how he was letting his terrorist daughter walk around with no punishment at all. There was even a woman that started crying during her interview because she was a single mother and she was worried about not being able to take care of her kids since finding a good-paying job was so hard because of being blacklisted.
There were also plenty of cops that were interviewed as well. They were the good ones that all wanted to arrest Chloe for what she had done. They vented their frustrations over how the mayor and Raincomprix were stopping them from righting such a serious wrong just because they bent to the will of a spoiled brat. And not even just that, but all the other times where they had been forced to not investigate Hawkmoth. Every time any of them were caught trying to figure out who Hawkmoth was or, at least, where he was, then they would have their jobs threatened.
They were told that it was the job of the heroes to take care of Hawkmoth, but none of them actually believed it when they were told. All of them were sure that the mayor was taking bribes from Hawkmoth in order for the police to not search for him. And since the heroes were so busy with the akumas, they were unable to go after any leads to Hawkmoth. Especially since the only suspect they had was taken off the list because he was akumatized.
But then came the interviews that were like the cream of the crops. The interviews with the former heroes. And they definitely all had plenty to say about Chloe and her father.
"I built an AI named Markov, who actually feels human emotions realistically enough to be akumatized," Max says. "And she got him confiscated as if he was just a toy because I refused to do her homework for her."
"She's tried to have my family's houseboat taken away from us several times a week even when we have all the needed paperwork to show that we have full permission to live on the boat in that part of the Seine," Luka said.
"I saved up for months to get her a special jeweled broach for Valentine's Day," Kim was kicking himself for ever having a crush on her. "And not only did she harshly reject me, but she also sent a humiliating picture of me to everyone in the class. She also got me kicked off the swim team because I refused to carry her books around for her."
"She tried to have me blacklisted from ever being a real DJ or film director for literally no reason other than that she wanted to," Nino was almost as mad as Alya. "She got my headphones confiscated even when I was not using them just because they were something that made me happy."
"She has tried to get my mother and I banished back to Japan just because I am dating the boy that she is obsessed with," Kagami said. "She has no concept that Adrien is his own person and it is his choice about who he chooses to date. But she believes that just because she wants him that she can have him."
"I am sick and tired of her getting away with everything horrible that she does to everyone," Alya was on a warpath. "She's broken into my best friend's locker, destroyed a gift that she made our teacher for her birthday, treated her supposed best friend as a slave to do her work for her, had gotten me suspended for taking a picture of her locker when she was the one that left it open in the first place, made a fake video of herself as Ladybug praising herself about all her actions as Queen Bee, tried to get my blog shut down when I refused to post anything about Queen Bee, and has just basically been the worst human being in all of Paris."
Ladybug then closed her yo-yo and took it back. She would make copies to give to whoever else would need them, but she would be keeping the originals so that she would always have them. Just in case the mayor or Raincomprix were able to get the copies to "disappear" before a trial could happen.
"We know that Chloe is still just a teenager, but nothing excuses what she has done," Ladybug tells the president. "She is old enough to know right from wrong, but she simply doesn't care. Chloe only cares about Chloe."
"Hawkmoth could have actually won when she became Miracle Queen," Cat Noir says. "And who knows what could have happened if he got his hands on our miraculous. But all Chloe cared about what getting what she wanted. She needs to finally be taught that actions have consequences."
"Her father is doing everything in his power to stop that from happening," White Wolf pointed out. "He has always done everything he could to keep her happy. It was why he shut down Clara Nightingale's music video when Chloe was not cast as the lead."
"Chloe's most well-known catchphrase, other than her saying 'ridiculous, utterly ridiculous' a lot, is pretty much her threatening to call her father," Beautifly said. "She is like a much worse version of Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter."
"So, that is why you came to me," Macron put two and two together.
The heroes all nodded.
"You are the only one that can override the mayor," Ladybug tells him. "We have put up with a lot of crap from the Bourgeois family for a long time, but we have reached the end of all our ropes. Things need to change before they get any worse than they already are."
Macron looked at all four of the heroes in front of them. He knew that they were all young, but seeing them in person revealed that none of them could be older than sixteen. And just seeing the tiredness in their eyes, he could easily tell that all of them could really use a break in everything that was happening. And since Cat Noir had said that Chloe has been the cause of so many akumas, then getting her off the streets actually could give them the break that they needed.
"I will see what I can do," Macron had a fire in his eyes.
The heroes hoped that he actually could do something.
*****
It turned out that the heroes did not have to wait very long.
Marinette was running late to school, as usual, when she had to come to a sudden stop right in front of Dupont. There was a big crowd of students standing in the doorway and on the steps of the school as well. And looking at where they were staring, she could understand why they were all just standing there.
Chloe was being dragged into a police-like car. But the cars looked like they were a lot more secure than anything she had seen in Paris. The only time she had seen a police car that secure was when Sabrina's dad had been akumatized into Rogercop, which had also changed his police car as well into something a lot more high tech and dangerous.
Chloe was currently being dragged into the police car while she was literally kicking and screaming. She kept going on and on about her father being the mayor and they couldn't do anything to her. But the ones putting her in the car only rolled their eyes and didn't care what she was saying.
Marinette went over to where Adrien, Lyon, and Vallia were all watching this happen.
"Do I even want to know," she asked them with her eyebrow raised.
"Chloe is being arrested," Lyon did not beat around the bush when he delivered news like that. "It seems that the President of France has finally learned what she did as Miracle Queen."
"Guess she's not much of a queen anymore," Vallia giggled.
The two Greek teens looked a little too happy with what was going on. Not that Marinette blamed them.
"At least someone is finally doing something about her," Marinette says.
"I wonder when the school is going to start partying," Adrien chuckled. "After all, didn't a party start seconds after Chloe had announced that she was moving to New York last year?"
"You mean the party that you did not approve of," Marinette raised an eyebrow.
"You are never going to let it go, are you," Adrien asked her.
"I can not help but love teasing others," Marinette giggled. "I introduced Alya to Jagged Stone last month and she actually fainted. And when she woke up, a did a perfect impression of her when she would tell me to just be myself when I was nervous and could not speak properly."
"Word has it that the president is also currently at City Hall arresting the mayor as well," Lyon said. "Abuse of power is a serious thing when it is used in the way that the mayor was using it."
"I hope this also helps the people that the mayor blacklisted after they quit working for him," Vallia stated.
"I hope that this helps everyone," Adrien says. "I also heard that the president and his most trusted officers will be doing in-person interviews with as many people as they can."
"I guess that would help even if they have seen videos like what would be on the street security cameras," Marinette said.
The show was soon ruined when Damocles, who was looking really red in the face from what just happened, ordered all the students to get to class. Even when he was hated by almost the entire school for how he always lets Chloe get away with everything, he was still their principal, so they listened to him.
Everyone went to their classes, but that did not stop them from talking about anything but Chloe finally getting what she deserves. By the time Marinette finally found Alya, the reporter hopeful looked like Christmas had come early. Literally, the entire school looked ready to throw the biggest party ever. Not even Hawkmoth being defeated would make them this happy. But that was mostly because Chloe has been terrorizing all of them for a lot longer than Hawkmoth has. 
Bustier's class was probably the most excited out of them all. Especially Marinette, Nino, Kim, Sabrina, Juleka, Max, and Rose. All of them have been in the same class for a long time. Nino had a different one the previous year, but his vacation away from Chloe ended when he was once again back with the rest of them.
Marinette was the one that first approached Sabrina.
"Hey, Marinette," Sabrina tried to not look her in the eye.
"How are you doing, Sabrina," Marinette asked her. "I know that things have been really hard for you, lately."
Sabrina might have been the person closest to Chloe, thinking that she was the blond's best friend, but she was also the one that was tormented by Chloe the longest as well. Sabrina just did not know it because of how she had been basically brainwashed by Chloe. And it did not help that her own father had been in the mayor's pocket for so long.
"I...I've been better," Sabrina did not want to lie. "Mom's taken custody of me and I've started therapy. But, it is still going to be some time before I actually feel okay again."
"You will get there, I'm sure," Marinette comforted her.
"Mom thinks so as well," Sabrina said. "She only says that I need time."
"Your mom sounds like a smart lady," Marinette softly smiled at the redhead.
She knew that Sabrina's parents went through a very messy divorce several years ago. Sabrina's mother was a lawyer, so she was infuriated by her husband's lack of a spine and lack of a moral compass when it came to the mayor. But when they divorced, Sabrina's dad was able to have full custody of her while her mother only got visits every weekend because of his "connection" to the mayor.
"She's trying to make up for how she believes that she did not fight hard enough for custody of me during the divorce," Sabrina says. "I don't blame her for anything since it was not like she could have done anything when the mayor backed up my dad during custody agreements. She did not have the needed power back them."
"Well, I hope that you will be able to have a much better time at school and at home from now on," Marinette tells her.
"Thanks, Marinette," Sabrina smiled at her.
Everyone went back to their seats and Marinette joined Alya in their usual seats. But she kept an eye on Sabrina since she was still worried about her. Sabrina's mental state after being Chloe's slave and minion for so long could not be the best. And with everything going on, she really worried about the next time that the redhead would be akumatized. She was dangerous enough as Vanisher and Miraculer.
"How's she doing," Alya asked Marinette.
"She's making slow progress, but that is better than no progress," Marinette says. "I think Chloe finally being arrested with probably help a lot."
"That pretty much helped everyone," Alya giggled. "I have never been so happy in my entire life."
Marinette also giggled since she was definitely happy as well. Bustier soon came in, even as everyone was still happily chatting. But unlike all her happy students, the teacher looked sad.
Everyone, even while very happy for Chloe finally being out of their hair, got out their books. They still wanted to at least try and have a normal day before they all went home and celebrated with their parents. Especially Juleka since she knew her mother was going to be REALLY happy when she finds out.
"I am sure that you all saw what had happened outside of the school a few minutes ago," Bustier started. "And in light of that, I am giving you all a very special assignment that might be of great help to someone in need."
The class all shared slight looks with each other. They were all confused by this. They knew that their teacher was very nice, but they had no idea who this "someone in need" was. But, they all had a bad feeling about what this could be about.
"What is she talking about," all of them were thinking.
And that is when a bomb is dropped on them after their teacher passed out paper for them all to write on.
"Chloe is going to need all the help that she can get," Bustier says. "And as her classmates, those that know her the most, today's assignment is to write a letter about all the good things about Chloe that you know. I am sure that this will really help during her trial."
That definitely was something the class did not expect at all. They knew that Bustier was known as the nicest teacher in the school, but this was a level of nice that took to a toxic level of niceness. They all shared looks again as their eyes widen.
Chloe had tormented them all for years. She had bullied them, destroyed their things, called them every mean word under the sun, not to mention endangering the lives of some of them when she exposed them as heroes. None of them had anything nice to say about her on a good day. So, they definitely had nothing nice to say now.
"Ms.Bustier..." Alya tried to say something.
"I know that some of you might not have had many good moments with Chloe, but she really needs the help," Bustier did not let Alya talk. "Once they see that she just needs to be shown love and kindness, then they will let her go. Just write all the good things about Chloe that you can think of."
While Bustier might believe that what she was saying was a good thing, her students did not feel the same. All of them looked at each other even more. Sabrina, in particular, looked horrified at the thought of being forced to write anything nice about Chloe. 
Alix was the first to say something.
"Write all the good things about Chloe, that's easy," she said, then crumbled up the paper in front of her and threw it behind her. "Nothing. Assignment done."
Bustier looked shocked at what Alix had just done.
"Alix has never said anything more right in her life," Alya followed her lead and crumbled up her paper as well. "We can not write anything good or nice about Chloe because there is nothing good or nice about her."
"The black panthers at the zoo where Alya's dad works are nicer than Chloe," Kim stated.
"The irony," Max stated since he was very aware of what Kim did that got Alya's dad akumatized.
All of the students did the same as Alix and Alya. They crumbled up the papers and threw them away. Well, they recycled them since they all knew that Mylene would have their heads if they were disrespectful to the environment. Lila was the only one that did not do anything to the paper. But, why would she have anything against Chloe when she was also secretly working with Hawkmoth.
"I find it hard to believe that you actually want us to do that," Marinette looked like she wanted to throw up.
"Marinette," Bustier gasped at what Marinette had said.
"Chloe dug herself into this hole and it is not our job to dig her out," Marinette continued. "She bullied us, tormented us, got almost all of us akumatized. She has been nothing but our tormentor for years. And not that she is finally getting what she deserves, you actually want to try and excuse the things that she did? What kind of teacher are you?"
"Marinette, that is no way to speak to me or about Chloe," Bustier actually had the gall to scold Marinette.
"And that is no way to speak to Marinette just because she is telling the truth," Lyon spoke up. "Vallia and I may not have been in this class as long as others have, but even we know that Chloe does not deserve the help from anyone in this class. Not after everything she has done to them."
Vallia then spoke up after her brother. "Taking away myself, my brother, Marinette, and Adrien, since none of us have been akumatized, Chloe has been responsible for literally everyone being akumatized other than Nino, Max, and Lila. And she has not once apologized for any of her actions that caused those things to happen."
"I doubt that Chloe has ever said the word 'sorry' in her life," Nino crossed his arms as he almost growled.
"That word is probably not even in her vocabulary," Max said.
"Children, please," Bustier tried to calm them all down. "I know that Chloe is not the easiest person to be around..."
"Not the easiest person," Marinette was on her feet this time. "She had Juleka locked in the bathroom, she ripped up Rose's letter to Prince Ali, she bullied Mylene over her stage fright, she called Ivan a monster, she got Alya unfairly suspended, she called Sabrina invisible and pretended like she didn't exist, she sent an embarrassing picture of Kim to the entire class, she ruined a bunch of Nathaniel's drawings and sketchbooks, and destroyed Alix's watch, she stole my hat design for the contest Adrien's father had here. Chloe has been nothing but a bully for over ten years and now she is a terrorist finally getting what she deserves."
"Marinette, that is no way to talk about Chloe," Bustier scolded her again. "We talked about the Marinettes of the world."
"Stop," Adrien was the one that stood up this time.
"Adrien," Bustier was really shocked at this.
"There is nothing that can excuse Chloe's behavior this time," Adrien actually glared at their teacher. "I believe in taking the high road when it actually would work, but this is NOT something that can be ignored. Chloe WILLINGLY worked with Hawkmoth just because she was not getting what she wanted for once in her entire spoiled life. She exposed all of the temporary heroes. Alya, Nino, Kim, Max, Luka, and Kagami now all have their lies in danger because Hawkmoth could try and get to Ladybug, Cat Noir, White Wolf, and Beautifly through them. They and their families are in danger. Nothing can excuse Chloe's actions when she causes something like that to happen."
"But Chloe was akumatized," Lila spoke up for the very first time. "Why is everyone so sure that she all that stuff willingly."
"Of course, she would stick up for Chloe," Adrien turned his glare to Lila, shocking her. "She did trick me into leaving Ladybug to Oni-Chan's mercy by faking being injured. She probably was delighted to hear that Ladybug almost lost that time."
"The proof was given," Max said. "I helped Beautifly find the needed footage of Chloe willingly helping Hawkmoth. And I have to say... it felt SO good."
"Way to go, Max," Kim gave his best friend a high-five.
"I can not believe you all," Bustier was shocked by what was happening. "I have taught you all that love and kindness are the way to handle others. This is not what I taught you."
"You did not teach love and kindness, either," Marinette snapped. "What you were teaching us was to be doormats and that people are allowed to walk all over us and treat us badly with no consequences being ever given to them. It is not our job to make Chloe better through kindness and love. It is the job of the adults. And it is the adults that failed because they brought Chloe up to believe that she can do whatever she wanted whenever she wanted with no consequences. Well, it is about time for those wrongs to finally be made right."
"You enabling Chloe has only served to make her worse," Adrien tells Bustier. "Letting her get away with everything she does while scolding others when they are rightfully upset with her just proves to Chloe that she can do whatever she wants no matter what."
"You actually had the gall to give Chloe credit for the present that Marinette made you and then she destroyed," Alya was also on her feet. "Chloe broke into Marinette's locker to do that and yet you did nothing to make Chloe think that what she did was wrong. You actually took Marinette aside instead. That is wrong on so many levels."
"You victim blame and that only makes it so much worse," Lyon said. "Scolding people for being upset with Chloe even when they have every right to be. Bullies need to be punished, not their victims. As a teacher, it is your job to protect your students and yet you left them at the mercy of a heartless bully who never has and never will show any remorse for her actions."
"Athena, as the goddess of wisdom, would be very disappointed that a teacher like you exists," Vallia said. "Your theory about love and kindness might work in fairy tales, but this is the real world and Chloe is finally getting some real-world consequences."
"Sit down, all of you," Bustier raised her voice for once. "I am completely appalled that you are saying these things. Chloe is a sweet girl that only needs to be shown kindness. Now, you will all sit down and write nice things about her before you all get detention."
That definitely made all of the class snap. They were all on their feet and shouting at Bustier that they would never have anything nice to say about Chloe. They hurled every insult that they could about the blond brat at their supposed teacher. None of them could believe that she was so sure about Chloe that she would allow them to suffer just to try and prove herself right. It was all so intense that most of them would have missed the policeman that came through the door if not for the fact that all of them had auras of authority around them. The room soon went silent.
"Caline Bustier," one of them asked.
"Yes, the teacher answered.
"You are under arrest," another said as they put her hands behind her back as they also placed handcuffs on her.
"What! Why," Bustier was shocked and confused.
"For child endangerment, child abuse, and helping a criminal," one of the officers said.
"I have never helped a criminal a day in my life," Bustier protested.
"Does the name Chloe Bourgeois ring a bell," another officer asked her. "Helping someone that aided a terrorist get away with their crimes makes you guilty of helping a criminal."
"That owl-obsessed principal of yours was also arrested for the same crimes," a third officer said.
The class was speechless, but it was not like they did not think something like this might happen with how often the principal and Bustier excused everything Chloe has done. Karma must have been working overtime to deal with all of these corrupt people.
Chloe was sentenced to juvie for the rest of her teen years before she would be transferred to a maximum-security prison for her crimes. Her father did not end up any better since it was proven that he was taking bribes from Hawkmoth to not have the local police search for him while the heroes dealt with the actual akumas. He was given life in prison. The same was the sentence given to former policeman Raincomprix since he was almost as corrupt as the mayor. Bustier and Damocles were not sentenced to prison, but they both had their teaching licenses revoked with no way to get them back while they were also blacklisted from ever getting any jobs in education ever again.
Now, the heroes only had two more issues that they hoped to deal with as soon as possible. Hawkmoth and Liar Rossi.

MY FIRST MIRACULOUS LADYBUG FIC
Something small about my faves and their dynamic.
Don't overthink, how exactly Chloe ended up in the broken timeline with the Chat Blanc. I, myself, have no idea. Lets just say, that Bunnix decided to use the timeline with Chat Blanc as sort of garbage can to throw all the trouble villains.
Also, a heads-up for foreigners who decided to read this!
Firstly - thank you, hope you enjoy:)
Second - I use White Chat instead of Chat Blanc because I personally love the first one better. And Queen of Miraculi instead of Miracle Queen.
