Worm comics worm comics!!!! Comics about miraculous ladybug but they’re worm themed
(What you have to know at this point is that @carpisuns drew them as worms and it was very cute and funny and you should go beg her to post them)
The party hats and the wormfel tower are from some things @anna-scribbles drew and if you want to see those drawings the only thing to do is go beg her. Sorry that’s the rules
WORM COMICS
The change of Shadybug and Claw Noir's costumes at the end makes so much sense, both thematically and lore-wise. The show has told us time and time again that the costumes that the characters wear are a reflection of themselves— how they feel in the moment, how they see themselves, the energy they carry. Of course their costumes would change at such a monumental moment of character growth. Of course Shadybug would want to look more like Ladybug, the version of herself that she wants to be. Of course Claw Noir would want to get rid of his spikes and look more like himself, to seem less intimidating, to let his natural hair color show. Of course they would want to change their names, to shed their association with their previous selves, where they were merely tools being used and disrespected and left to rot by the being they trusted, the being that saw them as nothing more than dispensable cogs in a machine. Of course they'd want to start fresh. This makes so much sense that there really is no alternate ending that would've worked, and if I were a writer on the special, I wouldn't change it.
that being said, FUCK their new designs claw noir and shadybug will always be claw noir and shadybug and he'll always have green hair and spikes and she'll always have space buns i don't care i don't care i don't care. adrien deserves spikes and marinette just looks so good in space buns ok i am on my knees sobbing and punching the floor
something something marinette mirrors gabriel while something something adrien mirrors emilie. something something marinette just like gabriel making Questionable decisions due to a need to protect the person she loves something something while not fully considering what the person she loves would actually want something something. adrien is moreso a primary topic of discussion in the final battle than a primary character in it just like emilie something something. something something adrien as an agent to haunt the narrative despite being alive something something. send post
i know “slut!” took everyone off guard because we thought it was going to be blank space on steroids, but there’s something beautiful and quietly brave about naming a song after the word she was branded as by the public and then have it be a tender and fragile little song about falling in love instead
