Description obvious spoilers----

This comic took me FOREVER....UGH.... like...I sketched it out and colored it MONTHS ago, but then dropped it and forgot about it because it was taking so long... 
and now I forced myself back into it and I've worked on the shading all week.....kjgjkhjHSDGJH this took too long ..im so glad its over with ..I've got homework to do now....dsgjfgh
there were going to be more butterflies in Hawkmoth's lair, but I found they can be a little distracting? I like to have the sense of isolation between Adrien and Hawkmoth during this discovery trip. 

~~
Arien Agreste’s character is difficult to work with, because of how he’s been shaped. 

Originally, he was supposed to be this Draco Malfoy character in the original PV for the show. Very cold hearted, he was the image of bad luck and negativity. As Chat Noir, he was almost a totally different person, but the same Chat Noir we know in the current show. 

But Adrien Agreste we know now, is super different because the creators didn’t see him as likable, they couldn’t figure out what Marinette saw in a guy like that, and they doubted the audience would be happy with such a douchebag. 


However, they’ve upped Adrien’s character in positivity/personality too much for my taste. 

Adrien is a child subjected to isolation and the heavy burden of fame ever since his birth. 

He has heavy expectations and standards put on him by his father, the industry, and the public. 

His only close friend was Chloe, who grew up to be a cruel spoiled brat. 


While Adrien gets most of his looks and personality from his mother; someone we don’t know anything about yet, he clearly has a caring heart. He loved his mother dearly, and from the picture he drew of his parents when he was young, his father seemed to have a good relationship with him. 


But ever since his mother’s disappearance, (a year or so ago) his relationship with his father has rapidly declined. His home is like a glorified prison, his bodyguards / managers are very cold to him and his friends. 

He and his father never eat together, nor do they really see eye to eye. 

His father schedules massive activities for him, signs of an overprotective, patronizing parent who has a tendency to manipulate and disregard their child. 

Isolated Children with overprotective and neglectful parents are usually known to amass mental illness. 


But Adrien shows none of those. (Well…aside from maybe Stockholm Syndrome) 

He is super positive, extremely active, almost never tired from his forced daily activities. He doesn’t seem to struggle with his idol persona despite how inconvenient it is for him to be out in public, or make friends for that matter.  

And despite his father not ever having time for him, despite his father having a copy of the miraculous book the entire time and yet still had a massive tantrum over it: grounding Adrien and forbade him from returning to school, and threw his childhood drawing across the room, shattering the glass in its frame……Adrien forgives him.  


Gabriel Agreste in general is not a good person. He’s cold and manipulative. He’s manipulated his own employees, old friends, Adrien’s friends, innocent people of Paris. He’s turned them all into monsters. He’s put the Mayor’s daughter in danger. (I think Adrien and Chloe’s moms were close friends?)  

He’s put his own son, as both Adrien and Chat Noir, in massive danger through his actions. And he doesn’t always seem to care. 


He wants the Miraculous. He wants to grab the Miraculous from two teenage kids. For what? To bring his wife back? 

He is aware of the equivalent exchange the power granted may bring if he obtains them. (at least from what we’ve been told) 

He might get his wife back wherever she is, but he also might lose Adrien. 


and no matter how cruel his father can be, Adrien forgives and loves him. 

He harbors no resentment, has no depression / anxiety symptoms, and is just an overly sweet kid. A little too sweet. 


So naturally I wanna make his heart shatter. /: ) 



I absolutely cannot wait for this family drama (which unfortunately is probably seasons away considering the horrific plot pacing in the show) 

but seriously tho someone get Adrien’s adoption papers 

Gabriel Agreste needs to be arrested effective immediately

This is pretty much what would happen. I'm willing to guess that when the big reveal happens, it will be just as devastating to everyone concerned. Gabriel's failure to realize that the end is not justifying the means is almost as tragic as his son's inability to realize Marinette and Ladybug are the same person.

I mean considering how "at arms length" Gabriel is with his love towards Adrien, I'm shocked that this hasn't happened sooner.  I mean the running away thing.

Probably a Season 5 Finale. I heard there was going to be 5 Seasons of the show.

I had a theory based off this picture!

We all know that Hawk Moth preys on those who have negative emotions like jealousy, anger, and sadness, right? What if Gabriel raised Adrien to not feel these emotions or at least see the bright side of things so he didn't get transformed? It would at least explain why Adrien doesn't show his sadness or anger.

I believe all this. Hawkmoth is no doubt Adrien's father. I've noticed from the two-part special and "Simon Says." This is very dramatic and real. Amazing story put together.

Glimare [2018-04-20 03:24:02 +0000 UTC]

LOL! You and I think the same way. The best way to make the story progress, for either of them, is to rip their hearts to pieces, just like this! XD
The only thing I can't figure out is how to get Ardien to find the place. I'm writing a fic that pretty much starts out just like this (except he steals some cheese from the kitchens before running out, using the destruction of the place as a distraction, and he mentions how his dad tried to kill ladybug) but I can't figure out how he gets to the room and why he ended up there. Ideas?

victortky [2018-03-19 14:38:03 +0000 UTC]

A minor nit-pick, but I am pretty sure some of the character poses look a little too dramatic for the human skeleton to pose that way...but then I have seen way more ridiculous examples in anime and certain western animation comics so I don't think I can 100% critique on that. 

Anyway, you have raised certain points about Adrien Agreste that I find myself agreeing with, and I know about the proto-Adrien who was named Felix and he was certainly an interesting character that would have bridged well with proto-Marinette named Bridgette since his cat noir is a complete 180 degree personality change and I would like to see what kind of mental illness he harbours behind the cold facade he had hidden from the girl who was actively seeking him.

The main point about him is that he's put on a pedestal by his father and is seen by all those around him as the perfect boy/guy who is rich and had everything he wanted. But with that kind of fame he lacks friends and familial love which it's obvious he desperately craves, wished, and dearly wanted for...especially from his missing mother. (who may or may not be a miraculous user as well) Adrien is probably too kind-hearted and open-minded towards his father, but there are times he had his own suspicions, and I can't blame him for throwing a "The Reason You Suck" speech at Hawkmoth's actions and motivations upon the discovery that his father has been the main villain behind the scenes.

Somehow I can't shake that you comic could possibly be a "glimpse" of what will eventually go down between Adrien and his father Gabriel once the cat is out of the bag (I know, I will go sit in the corner for the unintentional joke), and while I may sympathize with Gabriel that he just wanted to bring his wife back (which is the most possible option why he's so hell-bent on getting both Miraculouses) but he MUST know that the power of the two Miraculouses operate on the "equivalent exchange rule" (aka Fullmetal Alchemist) with little to no thought about the consequences about what would happen to his son, and that's taking the best case scenario. And that most certainly DOESN'T justify his reasons for akuma-izing his loyal employees (although Natalie seem to be fully on-board with him being Hawkmoth), his old friends, Adrien's friends and classmates, and god knows how many innocent people of Paris. (I am still dreading the day in which a possible episode in which Marinette gets Akuma-tized...as that has been explored in fanfics but I really, really wanted to see an official version.)

Somehow the scene of Hawkmoth here realizing that his son is Cat Noir in a big reveal would be a taste of delicious irony at the finest level as he gets called out BIG TIME on his questionable and selfish actions, and his loving, loyal son finally had enough of his cold, indifferent attitude and the virtual prison that had become of the Agreste mansion. Gabriel's "My God What Have I Done?" moment after Adrien leaves him forevermore would be the final nail on his coffin because by that time Gabriel will come to the inescapable realization that his son would never, EVER forget nor forgive his actions...no matter how well-intentioned it had been at first.

Anyway, I love the usage of wonderful colours and effects for the emotional tone of the comic. The facial expressions really stand out as it shows how much hurt and pain Adrien is suffering, and the slow dawn of realization on Hawkmoth's face that he has done quite a lot of wrong in his actions.

Ugh. The only worse parents I've seen in "Miraculous Ladybug" are Juleka's in "Powers of Invisibility" (long story short, they basically let her raise herself while they travel the world; she's good at it which means they trained her young) and Nathaniel's in "Protecting the Tomato" (pair of assholes; enough said). And both those are fanfiction so they don't count.
