#tigress purple upgrade

[zoe-oneesama]

Will you do power up suits for Pigella and Tigress?

Since I borrowed her new Power name from Sailor Venus, I leaned into the look of a Sailor Scout. It creates a chain of happiness, with the first person hit being overcome with joy and that person infecting the next person. It's a little creepy to be honest lol.

Since I already went an athletic route with Scarlet Lady's Purple Tigress, I went with a more Rocker Vibe, which deserves a loud new power. A tiger's roar can be heard for miles, so it felt correct to give Juleka this kind of upgrade, and it's fun to think of the specific ways Out Cry could ruin an akuma's day.

Analysis of the "Confrontation" trailer

Alright so.

We see a pair of hands put paper through the shredder. Unless the room in question is particularly dark, those hands don't look like Chloé's or Sabrina's to me (the Alliance also rules Lila out). Seems more like Alya. Getting rid of a troublesome document? I imagine it's her report card given the structure resembling grades and appreciation (but no courses?).

Lila and Chloé banishing Sabrina to the closet again (smh nerd henchwomen can't even be lesbians for their bully crushes anymore).

Opening student folders, Lila is holding Alya's (I imagine she's planning on sabotaging it to either make Marinette look like a bad influence on her grades or stall Alya in case Ladybug is needed... or both). Juleka's is next on the pile. This is probably relevant.

Miss Bustier looks down. Me thinks she's regretting the fact Chloé's whole academics are invalid due to Sabrina doing all her work for her.

The entire class is upset. If those ARE their report cards, it looks like everyone got bad grades. Which isn't all that doable unless Ladybug's recruiting ruined them THAT much.

Everyone turns to look at Juleka. And I fear I know what's going on.

Juleka risks getting expelled.

"A pupil may repeat a year only once during their schooling, before the end of junior high. Exceptionally, a second opinion for repetition may be taken after prior agreement of the Dasen (Academic Director of National Education Services)." Source

For those who may not know, Juleka has already repeated a year, hence why she and Luka aren't both in high school in spite of being the same age.

(seen here, Thomas confirming that Juleka had to repeat the year).

Seems like with Chloé decidedly failing her year, they'll be making EVERYONE in class repeat theirs. But if Juleka doesn't pass, it's over. She'd have no choice but to change schools or start taking homeschool like Adrien (or online classes).

Either way, it's no wonder she gets akumatized. Whether she likes it or not, she'll stop seeing all her friends next year. She won't get to be around Rose and everyone as much as she used to.

Reflekta's weapon is a paper fan that she splits apart to turn people into her obedient copies. Looks like the Megakuma might be in her report card, and she's ensuring that they all share her fate by becoming like her.

Marinette shielded herself from a Megakuma using Kim's report card (gurl I don't think there's much value aside from the sports grade in there, you won't gain much aside from being a supervillain jock).

Monarch seems displeased.

Looks like after what she threw at him in "Pretension" and what Lila did in "Revelation", Gabriel REALLY has it out for Marinette if he tried to akumatize her specifically.

And this is the part where it gets interesting.

The Megakuma got purified.

An anti-Megakuma shield? A Magical Charm shield? A Shield Charm? Magical Shield? New power from Ladybug counteracting Monarch's power upgrade?

Either way...

^The fandom after this episode (also my guess is that she's using the power of Clout to do these explosions, given she already was Purple Tigress and it'd fit that she gets her own Kwami back after Glaciator used it in "Elation").

What I want to see in season 6 of Miraculous Ladybug

New costumes for the main heroes. That little bell can go since Adrien now lives happily with his mother and Nathalie. And I'm seriously dead tired of Ladybug's onesie pyjama that she calls her super hero outfit. It's a onesie pyjama. She looks like she's going to a pyjama party with a mask and gonna do some yo-yo tricks while at it. The upgrade she gets whenever she uses Lucky Charm is better, but also always temporary, which sucks because it looked a bit more mature and well thought. I'd like to see some red in her hair maybe and ditch the pigtails, sure she had them in honor of Socqueline but she needs her own style now.

Less focus on Marinette and Adrien, the other characters can shine more, given now everyone had permanently their miraculouses, I'd like to see how the class live with their kwamis all the time, and see what kind of cute relationship they have. Don't freaking tell me that they're not gonna show us the rest of the team more after being permanent, I would scream so hard.

Ryuko, Rooster Bold, Caprikid, Miss Hound and Minautaurox transformations scenes.

More Julerose.

More Natharc.

Little closer circles of friends in the Miraculous Team, like Rooster Bold, Miss Hound, Caprikid and Minautaurox being all besties because they all joined at the same time so they quickly latched onto each others more, and Miss Hound and Minautaurox shipping Rooster Bold and Caprikid together. Purple Tigress, Pigella, Polymouse and Vesperia being another quatuor of close friends as they were all chosen quickly one after the others. Viperion, Ryuko, Bunnyx, King Monkey and Pegasus being a quintet. Some fun competetion between all of the groups maybe. Of course, Carapace, Rena Rouge, Ladybug and Chat Noir are the 4 mains maybe, and they are splitted in 2 with Rena and Carapace together and Ladybug and Chat Noir on the other, still all close. Felix maybe being an odd duck among all of them, yet is still closest to Ryuko.

Felix having to work hard to be trusted completely. Maybe still face punishment in an unusual way, like having to transfer to Françoise-Dupont in the class to learn social etiquette or something else.

Lila telling the truth to Adrien about his father and showing her proofs.

Adrien freaking out over it and maybe breaking up with Marinette over it because how could she keep all of those secrets from him when they concerns him the most?

Adrien and Kagami being told they're sentimonsters.

Kagami freaking out over it too.

Character arc about Adrien, Felix and Kagami coping with being magically created humans via magic feathers.

Lila being better at being a a villain than Gabriel ever was.

Cooler villains, with great names and looks and powers.

At least one episode where everyone swaps miraculouses, the shenanigans and who gets which miraculous are endless combinations. Hell maybe one where we could see briefly everyone wielding each of the miraculous at least once, maybe via Second Chance, by that I mean the team having to swap miraculous each time it doesn't work until the find the loop that works.

The Tsurugi family's background and origin story.

Lila's real origin story.

Power ups for the entire miraculous team, and even Lila too as Chrysalis, can't believe Gabriel could have gotten power ups and never used them after getting the translations of the Grimoire.

More Luka and Juleka siblings moments,

More Adrien friendships moments with the rest of the class outside of Marinette and Nino, and also outside Kitty Section too.

Adrien and Kagami joining Kitty Section as permanent members.

Nathalie and Tomoe having their crimes revealed by Lila and them being arrested.

Chloé coming back later and having changed from having to live with her mother and expectations and none of her previous power.

Seeing what the Miraculous Team looks like in Adult!Bunnyx timeline.

Maybe new unifications if something happens to someone on the team, and not having just Ladybug and Chat Noir use them, I could see Kagami with the Dragon and Tiger.

Seeing more family members, like where the heck are Nino's parents after 5 seasons? Or Kim's 2 dads I think? Rose's parents could also be neat. Marc's and Nathaniel's too.

The Order of the Guardians being more there.

Alternate universe/timelines where Marinette and Adrien are either evil, or not Ladybug and Chat Noir, or are Mister Bug and Lady Noire since the beginning, or any other miraculous they could have.

Sabrina making up for following Chloé's lead for so long and getting close for real with the rest of the class.

New school year with Zoé, Kagami and Marc joining the class?

Everyone getting kwamigatas or whatever the little necklaces Marinette, Adrien and Alix have from their kwamis.

The heroes using their necklaces to talk to past holders again.

Chat Noir getting new powers.

Remember everyone that I'm listing what I WOULD LIKE TO SEE in season 6, NOT listing everything that will happen in it.

[imthepunchlord]

Hey I know this is kind of random but what do you think of all the hero costumes (or at least the four new ones)? Also if you want you also give any changes you would make to them.

Majority range from basic/boring to just... bad. Design wise, this show isn't the most creative and honestly, that's the biggest change I'd vote for. Make the suits more actual clothes, and give them padding and armor that makes sense, ESPECIALLY to the girls. Majority of these girls are literally in skintight suits and a lot of them are 14 yo. It's pretty gross.

Ladybug herself has the worst design, the LC upgrade is an improvement, but it'd be nice to see some padding or armor to her. Same goes for Scarbella. Much better visially, but still would like some sort of armor on her as ladybugs are an armored beetle. Mister Bug probably has best design in my opinion visually and in actuality. But that's not surprising as he's a male hero and they put effort in the boys' outfits.

Chat Noir's fine. Maybe could use a little more extra detail or flare but overall he's good. Catwalker I like more but I wish he had a more tuxedo cat look to him. Lady Noire could've used a little more to her design wise, and some padding as some shots she looks like she's wearing a skintight suit.

Rena Rouge kinda hurts to look at and I like her concept design more, though that also looks like a skintight suit. At least RR has a but of a coat theme going on. A very tight one with a bigger chest to go with it...

Queen Bee I actually like design wise, but I don't like the stripes in her hair. Vesperia I like the suit itself, but everything above the shoulders I just... I can't get into it. It's just kinda awkward? I couldn't tell you why.

Jade Turtle and Carapace, very solid. I dread the day we see a girl turtle hero though...

Multimouse feels unfinished and needs more to her, the base that's there I like but she feels unfinished design wise. @zoe-oneesama update to her design I really like. Polymouse at least has a jacket with a hoodie, but there's still that tight skinsuit that you can see under it...

Minotaurox I feel like they didn't quite know what to do with Ivan as a hero. Like it's not bad but it's not great.

Tigress Purple is ok, but same issue as all the other girls. Same for Bunnyx. Ryuuko is probably the worst designed female hero and I am so sorry for Kagami and dragons. What should be easily epic and awesome is bland and uncomfortable to look at.

Body wise, Aspik is good but I hate that egghead. Viperion feels over designed? Too many details? Also, why do they not like to give reptile based miraculous tails? Turtle I can get skipping out on a tail but Snake and Dragon??? No tail??????

Pegasus needs more white in his suit or something to break it up, I thought it was just a straight up black suit with no details on it. And have his skin match with Max more.

Caprikid I actually like design wise. I just wish Nathaniel would wear his miraculous like a normal person. Cause just... wut???

That is not how you wear hairclips.

Roi Singe is solid.

Rooster Bold is also pretty good, but that design just doesn't click with Marc. It felt like they had their design down more than it matching the character they're tying it to. And I will add, the miraculous itself looks like it's ready to fall off his/their thumb.

Miss Tracker and Flairmidable both have pretty lackluster and uninspired designs.

You know, I think Pigella probably has the best design as a girl hero, drawback though is that I couldn't look at her design and tell you, "Yeah! That's a pig themed hero!" Otherwise Pigella is very cute.

Miraculous Ladybug Design RANT (Spoilers from future episodes Trailers and Clips)

I'm mad

We've been waiting since 2016 for this shit and this is what we get?

I'mma be honest, as an artist, this season has infuriated me beyond belief. All the designs in this show were complete fire until season 4, why are they so ungodly now?

Polymouse and Purple Tigress' outfits are great but other than that the costumes are either passable or fugly.

Pigella was fine, ladybug suit upgrade was fine, Vesperia –as much as I hate the character for existing and how she looks more like a villain than a hero– was fine.

But this?

Sabrina, Ivan and Nate look SO BAD.

The only new design that's been revealed in the Penalteam clips that's even semi-good is Marc and even then, it just doesn't fit his style. It could be a similar situation to Juleka where he's trying to be more confident but even still, Juleka's Tiger suit fit her aesthetic.

And the fact that he got the chicken and not the goat kinda makes me mad.

Speaking of, wtf is going on with Nathaniel's horns? Why is his (and Ivan's) hair not changed in the slightest? Why does he look like that? The goat doesn't fit Nathaniel just as much as the chicken doesn't fit Marc, if not more so. I do get that they're based off of the Chinese Zodiac and they do fit they're personalities (I was born year of the ram, I know) but these styles just don't.

I don't think the designers even know these characters' personalities.

Why did the creators choose this? And the goat's weapon is a giant paintbrush? While the chicken's is a pen? Not a giant pen, just a regular one. Not only is it too on the nose for the characters but what kind of choice was that?! What is the pen gonna do?!! How is that gonna help in battle?

It's like the equivalent of giving Rena Rouge a camera for a weapon because it's journalist Alya.

And why is Ivan gray? The bull is blue! MAKE HIM BLUE! Why does Nathaniel's hero suit have a green tint. That's NOT needed!!!

Idk what weapon Ivan is getting but the rooster should've had boomerangs, the goat should've had a paintball gun and the bull needs a giant Harley-Quinn-like hammer.

And don't even get me started on Sabrina. They took her civilians clothes, made them brown, black & white, and gave her an ugly ass hat with floppy ears glued on. Her mask makes her look dead inside, oh my god.

I'm genuinely kinda disgusted with how low the bar has been set with these hero designs.

(EXHALE)

At the very least, I can only hope to God that Marc and Nate switch miraculous' at some point. I've only seen, like, one post/blog about the theory that they'll switch but even so, it doesn't excuse this atrocity. Even if these weren't meant to be their permanent looks, make them look –at the least– decent.

Other than that, nothing could ever vindicate the creators/designers for these looks.

DC's Stargirl 2.13 "Summer School: Chapter Thirteen" has aired on the CW and I'm here to talk about it

Finale time baby!! Finales are always bittersweet. You know it's gonna be fun but how long will it be until the next season? Season three is obviously confirmed and I think has started pre-production? I'm not sure. Maybe.

A previously on intro, how exciting! I don't think we've had one of these before, definitely not in this season. Maybe for season 1's finale. And a new creepy logo. Love the purple.

Y'all I fucking hate Eclipso Kid so much.

Eclipso ripping open a portal to another dimension, love to see it. I also love to see Rick being a little genius! It's cute. I think Mike is going to finally use S.T.R.I.P.E. here in the finale.

I love the Stargirl, Shiv, and Wildcat trio. Such power! Yolanda fighting Ted Grant (kick his ass bestie), Cindy fighting (???) her young self, Pat fighting a younger him too (assumedly specifically the version that let the old JSA go kill Bruce Gordon). I wonder what kind of effect specifically fighting Ted will have on Yo, especially with that little "you kill one person, specifically Brainwave of all people, and you quit" jab. Maybe it'll be the reminder she needs about how Brainwave is someone who kinda needed to die. I've ranted about this before but we don't know if anywhere that can really hold the super-powerful psychic Brainwave exists. We haven't seen an ARGUS or a DEO. They may exist but we haven't seen them, so killing him was the only solution. He was also lowkey trying to commit genocide.

It seems they can see what the other people are fighting so I'm betting this is one of those "we have to fight each others demons" kind of solutions. Like, idk, Cindy has to beat Ted, Yo has to beat young Pat, and Pat has to beat young Cindy (or any combination). We'll come back to this and see. Or maybe Courtney has to beat their illusions and in doing so she embraces her darkness or whatever, and that's how Eclipso gets her.

Surprisingly good advice from Pat's dad. I can be into that phrase.

Or Beth and McNider are going to save them because they can see the illusions aren't real. That works too. Not as fun but whatever.

Courtney & Cindy work so well together holy shit. Another great example of teamwork. I'm not in the camp of people who want Cindy to be redeemed and join the JSA permanently (though I wouldn't really be mad at that) but I definitely wanna see these two team up like this more. A lot of the action has been really stellar this season. And I love how many of the fight scenes in this show overall are long takes. Really showcases the work the choreographer as well as the cast and their stunt doubles put into making these fights work.

Hello and welcome back to Sheep thirsting for Rick Tyler yet again. He's such a fine man.

I love how this mechanic guy (Zeke??) genuinely doesn't give a single fuck about any of this weird shit. Truly iconic behaviour.

Even the way Eclipso moves is creepy! I wasn't sure if they'd be able to pull this guy off in this show but man has it worked! Gets me really hyped to see Eclipso hopefully get brought into the DCEU one day.

I love the upgrades to S.T.R.I.P.E.!! It's so funny watching Eclipso just get punched in the face by a giant fucking robot. Even he responds like "the fuck is this". And finally, Jakeem Thunder!!!

Rick is so hot in his uniform. And he brought Grundy!! And the good thing about Eclipso fighting Grundy is that Eclipso can brutally murder Grundy and it'll be fine! Because Grundy technically can't die. Ope and I wrote that literally right before Eclipso blasted a giant hole in Grundy. Called it I guess. Something I do also predict (but still might not happen) is a reveal that Rick actually does have super strength even without the hourglass because of reasons and this specific event of watching Grundy get murdered is gonna be the final trigger to unlocking it. Maybe not but it'd be fun.

Who is it Barbara?! Who's "you"?! Clearly whoever Cindy called, but who did she call. Artemis? Tigress & Sportsmaster? Those are the only options that make sense in my mind but who knows.

S.T.R.I.P.E. constantly getting taken out, RIP. Curse you budgeting.

I think Courtney saying that she hates Eclipso one time being enough to let him possess her completely is kind of a cop-out on getting more interesting here if I'm being perfectly honest. It'll be fun to watch her try and kill all of her friends but I think we've could've gotten here in a more fun way. I do, however, love the VFX of the Staff but in purple.

Okay so the Shade is here now. Was he "you"? Not surprised he didn't actually die as I did call it back in whatever episode it was, 11? I'm thinking maybe he isn't "you" though. It seems like he only just now materialized. Like, he was brought out through these two portals in the sky.

OH MY GOD SYLVESTER?!?!?! Okay yeah, he's the "you". He's gotta be. BUT HOLY SHIT!!! We haven't seen you since like the fucking premiere, where the fuck have you been all this time?!? If this is who Cindy called, I have so many questions.

Courtney being saved by the power friendship and family! How cute.

Okay so Artemis, Sportsmaster, and Tigress are who Cindy called. Love it. And Sylvester just also showed up, great timing.

Ha, he literally turned into toast! I love Thunderbolts genie rules.

I like how it's now a requirement that the season finale includes a scene of the kids all hanging out injured together.

There we go Court, the best villains are the ones we can learn from.

Oh, spoiler Beth! Beth is also now the only one who has officially had her title passed down to her. Courtney sounds like she will, but currently Beth is the only official one.

Both of Cameron's grandparents have ice powers?? Sounds like he's being set up to finally be a villain in season three.

Hold on, Cindy wants to join the JSA? Okay, that's a twist. But I could see it working. It'd be nice to see more of her. Is Shade also sticking around?? A fun, weird maybe kinda mentor for the JSA next season? That'd be fun!

Is everyone getting a happy ending? Fun! The Crocks are the new next-door neighbours, aren't they?! Fuck yeah, that's gonna be crazy! Sportsmaster and Tigress teaching the JSA new fighting styles, Artemis can join! It's gonna be an awesome time!!

Post credit scene??? Oh, Mr Bones is so gross! But he could be a fun main villain for next season. I know he has a connection with these characters in the comics but I really only know him from his more recent adventures and relationship with the D.E.O. and Kate Kane. Those probably won't be relevant but who knows, maybe we'll get a surprise.

It's always a sad time when a season of your favourite show ends. It's probably gonna be another full year before we get to see them back for season 3. I'm really excited for season 2 to be up on HBO Max so I can rewatch it all in one big sitting. I absolutely love binge-watching. I really hope y'all enjoyed both this season and seeing my thoughts about it every week. The wait for season 3 is going to really suck but I'm really excited to keep up with how production is going. For more Stargirl, Courtney has become Stargirl on HBO Max's Young Justice. How much of her we'll see is anybody's guess but she is there and that has new episodes every Thursday with episode 5 this week.

Until next time.

The Sip: A Modern Day GNR AU

Chapter 3: The BBQ

(Chapter 1) (Chapter 2)

“Is this the place?” Sandy asked me as we pulled up to the house I was at only this morning. The white exterior paired with the large black garage doors were the spitting image of the ones that I saw earlier today. The nerves of seeing Duff again quickly returned when we pulled into his rather spacious driveway.

“Yup, this was the place,” I replied as she parked next to a car that looked at least three times as expensive as Sandy’s.

“We got in the wrong business. We should have become rockstars,” Sandy’s eyes

“I have never been so nervous getting out of a car before in my life,” I joked back as I gently opened Sandy’s car door paying extra care to not hit the very expensive muscle car that she parked next to.

“God, I feel like such a peasant,” I couldn’t agree more with Sandy as I sent Duff a message that we made it. There was no way I was heading in there without knowing where he was. The place was most likely packed to the brim and the fewer awkward interactions I had, the better.

He quickly responded with instructions to head through the back gate which was thankfully unlocked.

The backyard was lined with trees, shrubs and a large fence for what I assumed were put there for privacy. A large pool sitting in the center filled with only a couple people was calling my name. Despite living in California I couldn’t remember the last time I went swimming.

“Wow this place is beautiful,” Sandy said as we walked through the backyard, and I couldn’t agree more. The grass was the greenest grass I had seen in a long time. To my surprise, the place wasn’t as packed as I expected. When we walked in I immediately saw Duff who was original by the grill chatting with Slash. The butterflies in my stomach swarmed into chaos as he walked over towards Sandy and I. Everything about him looked effortless. His blonde and brown hair looked barely styled, but still somehow managed to frame his face perfectly. He looked so causal as he walked over without a shirt on.

Don’t stare Alanah, don’t stare.

“Hey, glad you guys made it! Hopefully it wasn’t to bad of a drive. Want some beers?” I was about to say no due to the fact I was still hung over, but Sandy immediately interrupted me and said yes.

“Where is the bathroom?” I turned in panic towards Sandy was she spoke. She couldn’t just leave me alone with Duff! What if there is a like awkward silence or I say something stupid?

Once he gave her directions she whispered in my ear, “Go get him tigress.”

What the literal fuck. I love her to death, but what the fuck?

“What type of beer do ya want?”

“The alcoholic type,” the words left my mouth before my brain processed what I was about to say. Jesus Christ, he must think I’m such a weirdo.

I felt relief flow through me as he laughed and shook his head.

“Trust me, the only type of beer we have here is the alcoholic type,” his damn smirk shined again as he opened the cooler.

“Pick your poison,” my eyes darted from beer to beer trying to decide which one I should get. A purple tinted one caught my eye and I reached down to grab it.

“BlackBerry...interesting,” I looked at him and he still had his damn smirk on his face. I felt like he was a psychologist or something, studying me.

“Don’t mock it until you try it,” I shrugged before twisting the cap of and followed Duff to some chaise lounges.

“Feel free to keep your crap here, we have towels if you want to go for a swim. The water is actually heated which is kinda refreshing in the Fall. It’s a bitch in the summer though because you feel like a damn lobster being boiled when one of your band mates decides to leave the heat on overnight and doesn’t tell you,” As he spoke I placed my bag on the lounge and took my shirt off revealing the top piece of my bikini. No one else was swearing a shirt so why should I?

I definitly spent an hour or so digging through my dresser trying to decide which bikini to wear. I wasn’t trying to impress Duff, I just wanted to look good...I wanted to look good when Duff saw me...so maybe I was trying to impress him, but that doesn’t matter. I settled on this cheetah print one thanks to some advice from Sandy on how I shouldn’t look like a total slut in front of him just yet. Plus who doesn’t like a good animal print?

I felt his eyes on me as I took another sip of my beer and now it was my turn to smirk. So the rockstar was a fan of cheetah print? Good to know.

By now I assumed that Sandy had found someone else to occupy her time, probably someone of the male variety, so it was just me and Duff. Fuck.

“So..is this your place?” I asked him before taking another sip of my delicious beer. Who knew that alcohol could taste this good?

“Yup, it was my first big purchase!” I smiled at him as pride shot through his features. I figured this place must have been a huge upgrade from his last place.

“Well it is very very nice and puts Sandy’s and my place to absolute shame,” I made hand gestures in attempt to dramaticise how much nice his place was.

“So what does one do to have a not as nice place to live,” his playful tone caught me off guard.

“Well you saw my Instagram page when you DMed me, so you know the answer to that,” If he was going to play, I was going to tease right back.

“Social media influencer is one of the broadest job titles in the world,” he laughed back making my heart skip a beat. I loved his contagious laugh.

“Hmm and you didn’t look at ANY of my photos or click the link in my bio?” I continued my teasing efforts making sure that a smile stayed on his face.

“Are you asking if I stalked you on social media?” His voice was almost a whisper as he spoke. I could barely hear him above the music that filled his backyard.

“Now that’s not fair I asked you a question first,” I finished my drink placing it down on the ground next to me as I spoke.

He laughed again, and asked another question I assume to avoid answering mine,”what do I do?”

“Okay, there is no way in hell knowing what you do is comparable to you knowing what I do,” I laughed back at him. He definitly stalked me on Instagram. I knew it because he accidentally liked one of my photos from a couple months back. Was he too proud to admit it?

“What would you define as what you do then, just pretend we live in a world without social media,” whenever he spoke, his smile never faltered. I thanked God for the beer that calmed my nerves.

“Well that sounds like a scary world, Rockstar,” I teased back. It would mostly be a scary would because I would be unemployed but that is besides the point.

“Ohh so my name is Rockstar now?”

“Why yes it is Mr Rockstar!”

“Alright YouTuber,” he teased back before finishing off his own beer.

“So you did look,” I smiled as he finally admitted it.

“Prove it!” He challenged back.

“You just did,” I winked before standing up and looking around for somewhere to place my beer.

“Do you remember meeting the guys last night,” he raised an eyebrow at me as I shook my head not. If I was being honest I remembered jack shit from last night.

“Come on then, let’s go meet the guys,” he grabbed my hand and I followed him over to where Steven was chatting up some girl.

“Stevie, this is Alanah from last night,” I couldn’t help but smile as he pulled me in for a hug.

“How could I forget my karaoke partner?” He cheered earning some laughter from Duff. It was clear that he was trying to hide it but horribly failed.

“Karaoke?” Dear god, how much of a fool did I make myself out to be.

“Yeah, is recommend leaving the musical stuff to the professional, and sticking to your day job,” Duff teased back.

“What’s your day job?” The girl next to Stevie asked.

“I don’t know Duff aka Social media stalker, what is my job?” I turned towards Duff unable to hid my smirk. He was going to admit that he stalked me on social media. It was only a question of when.

“Well Duff that’s another thing us band mates got in common,” I turned towards Stevie to glare at him for him ruining my setup to making him admit he stalked me, but I couldn’t. His smile was too contagious.

“Well I hope you’re better at it than him. This newbie here accidentally liked a picture of mine from a few months ago?” I looked back at him to see him laughing and shaking his head.

“If you knew, why did you want me to admit it?”

“I like watching you squirm,” it wasn’t a lie. It was kinda funny to see the big famous badass rockstar squirm.

“You down for shot hill tonight?” Stevie asked before Duff and I were going to leave to probably go meet someone else I had completely forgotten about.

“You know that ain’t a question. We can use the plastic ones in the basement. I actually bought them for this. I don’t want to be cleaning up glass again. Make sure to tell Izzy and Axl. They have to chose which one of them is setting the game up,” Duff replied before we left. What the hell was shot hill. Did they just stack a bunch of shots on a hill and drink them?

“Shot hill?” I quizzed Duff before we met another one of his bandmates.

“It’s a game of shots, just make sure when we play it you’re fully dressed because we will probably be on a team together,” I felt him quickly look me up and down, but before I could make a sarcastic remark back I heard someone yell that dinner was ready. I guess my questions will have to wait.

NEW HOLDER SPOILERS AND OPINION.

There we go. Mylène as Rat and Jules as Tiger, a thing we all knew. I have some things to say.

Overall: it seems they're experimenting more with designs. Queen B, Rena, Ryūko and Ladybug were all so plain compared to the boys. These ones at least have more interesting patterns and even clothes.

Multimouse (does she have the same name as, you know, Multimouse???) looks fine. Her hoodie looks so fucking cute. Her mask too. And her costume seems interesting! She has a jacket. I can't see if her tail is part of the costume (which I hope so) or just the rope, tho. The only thing I'm wary of is her hair. Idk if I like her having pink hair lmao. And I don't even like her civilian hair because it's appropiative. Other than that (if I ever draw her I'll definitely change her hair) Multimouse's design might become one of my favorites if they don't fucking change her body type.

Vesperia. I know we've known her for a lot of time but I never gave an opinion on her. Well, I hate the color yellow, it's my least favorite color. I'm biased. Vesperia's design is fine, it has an interesting color pattern, but it looks kinda... eh. Her braid is cute, but the black parts sometimes look weird, I think they'd be better if they had less hair, to mimic antennaes. I don't like her mask and I think it's a big problem with ther design. It makes her look so weird for me haha. Her costume is fine, I just thing it's too dark compared to Queen B, and it makes her look like a wasp instead of, you know, A BEE.

I want a Rena redesign. No changes other than keeping her skin color consistant and not whitewashed, AND keeping her body type.

Tigresse Pourpre... I was thinking of something else tbh. I think the design is too gray when it should be, for me, entirely purple. Her stripes are weird too, they don't look like what a tiger would have (similar to how Vesperia's don't look like bee's!!!!). Her hair is fine ig, I just find it funny most people had already chosen a ponytail for Tiger Juleka. Her mask looks ok, but I personally think that grey color does not go with the red-purple they chose. They just clash a lot. Her hand has something, looks like claws?? I love it. Overall, I think my main problem is that grey color they chose, I don't like it with purple.

Pigella was already here, I know, but I didn't really talk about her. I don't really like her, I hate how her blonde changes (a nitpick I know). Her costume is nice and a breath of fresh air after S2-S3 girls. But it doesn't look like a pig at all and I hate it. It's so weird dhjdjdksw. Why are there no ears, no tail??? If someone not familiar with Miraculous looked at her, chances are they wouldn't know she's supposed to be the Pig hero. I think her padding is weird, it looks too harsh compared with her ballerina theme. I'd personally prefer a fairy theme, princess theme or angel theme for her, btw. Rose just gives me Barbie vibes.

I'm starting to think it's weird how many times the show LB's ass in promotional pictures xd. You all know what I think of her design. They didn't change her hair (everyone here has it changed) and she has a plain spotted costume (almost everyone here has more original things). She should have her upgraded costume always tbh, it's a big improvement (although I don't get why her hair gets bigger, is it a Brid/PV!Mari reference?).

Overall, S4 girl designs seem to be getting better. There's a big difference between Ryūko or LB and Pigella or new Multimouse. At least they're doing something else this time. But this makes me salty considering they won't change S2 and S3 girls into something better. Kagami and Marinette deserve something better. Literally everyone got their hair changed and theirs are just the same as their civilian hair. Their costumes are so plain and uninspired. And, well, we have whatever happened to Rena Rouge's body, which is something they won't address and I hate it 😭. Mari, Kagami and Alya deserve better hero forms.
