Yes! Finally okay- So way back when I was in the planning stages for 'Your Return is Due' I realized I didn't have any good options for who Izuku would intern with. I couldn't use Gran Torino, because Izuku and All Might aren't connected beyond teacher and student who just happens to know about his injury. None of the cannon heroes felt like good fits, I almost used TWWPC but because of later arcs didn't want to overuse them- SO I just made some up.
Read about all of them under cut- warning this is long:
Starting off with the Achiha's; Rehka and Rayden are not heroes, they are the PR managers for UA and the HPSC respectively. They are twins, 33, and very good at their jobs. Both were raised primarily by their father, after their mother passed when they were young.
I love giving OC's bonkers ass backstories that do not effect the plot at all- so their dad was an intelligence officer, and their mother was in witness protection. Being married to their father basically meant she could get out of her home country (i still haven't decided where) and wouldn't you know it they fell in love. Their dad cared about them a lot, and trained them both physically and mentally just in case any of his old enemies tried to get to him through him. He also taught them the values they now use at their jobs. He's very proud of them.
Rayden is a little more sociable than his sister, and is generally considered a charmer. He's definitely more approachable, but is very inclined to blackmailing his superiors to get his way. He has a long time girlfriend who knows he's a little bastard and loves him anyway, he's going to propose soon.
Rehka is blunt as a brick, and has no interest in changing. She has a very small group of close friends and no interest in love. She also suffers from trichotillomania, and has for her whole life. It's primarily affected by stress, and her father got her into therapy young to try and help. She was very proud of her progress, and had very long hair for several years that she took great pleasure in.
When she started working at UA she still had a very good handle on things, until Aizawa expelled an entire class of first years and she had to spend weeks between her and legal, keeping the parents from suing the school or going to the press. She relapsed hard and ended up yanking out and breaking off massive amounts of hair, resulting in her needing to cut it short to even things out again.
So that's why she hates Aizawa and threw a mug at him.
Onto the heroes!
Eimi Minami (27):
The Connection Hero: Harmony
Quirk: Hivemind Harmony
[Her quirk allows her to form a mental link with someone, starting small with the occasional thought, but growing stronger over time until they basically live in each others heads.]
Eimi is extremely friendly, and as a child had fun playing games with her friends solely in their heads. But those kids parents thought it was creepy and demanded she sever it. Teachers assumed she was using it to cheat on tests, and when she hit middle school her classmates starting thinking she was using it to rat them out to her mom, who was their principal at the time. Eimi grew up with very few friends, and several bullied until highschool.
Veronica Tsumugi (28):
The Single-shot hero: Recoil
Quirk: Rebound
[She's able to take the power from an attack and redirect it back at an opponent. The more she can prepare to be hit, the more she can redirect, and the less damage she takes.]
Veronica's parents moved to the USA for work before she was born, and tired to help her assimilate into american culture with the thought that they were making her life easier. It kind of did for a while, but when they had to move back to Japan when she was a teenager, Veronica barely spoke Japanese and was suddenly the very odd one out they had tried to keep her from being.
She had a lot of trouble at first, especially because no one really bothered to help her adjust. People kind of started assuming she was stupid because she didn't understand things that felt very normal to them.
Kaneko Fujimori (27):
Glass Sight Hero: Fracture
Quirk: Shatter
[Kaneko's quirk is a strange one. If he strikes the area in front of him it creates cracks not unlike a mirror. The cracks scale is based on how far things are from him, and more like a wave. The greater the distance between him and the target the more wide spread the damage, but with shallower effects. the closer he is, the more contained the attack, but much stronger.] (I hope I'm explaining this well, basically he punches the air and it breaks everything in his line of sight)
Kaneko grew up the older of two siblings, and had a lot of pressure from his rather wealthy parents to get a nice stable job and normal life. They kind of looked down on his interest in heroes, they respected the job but it wasn't the kind of thing they wanted for Kaneko. Versus their younger son who quickly became the golden child.
Ellis Hirano (25):
The Negotiator: Arbiter
Quirk: Empathy
[At all times Ellis can read the emotions of everyone around her. Her range can go from a large room to multiple city blocks, and she can detect even the smallest shifts in mood, while also distinguishing people even in large crowds. While she is unable to actually affect people's emotions with erh quirk, she is more than capable of doing so with her words. She can also use it to tell when people are lying.]
Ellis was a rising star at their small school, after clawing her way through troubles with her quirk and very little support from her family. By highschool people were in very little doubt she'd make it as a hero, but kind of disrespected the sheer amount of work she'd put in to get here. Being an empath of her caliber when people are constantly getting attacked by super villains is not easy. Especially because she can't really turn it off.'
Due to not really learning how to distinguish moods visually or through tone, she shows very little emotion herself. But does actually feel very strongly, and just struggles to communicate it.
The Team!
Eimi is the oldest of several kids, but had very little friends besides her siblings. She kind of assumed she'd just be alone for most of her life, until she met Kaneko and Roni in her hirst year of highschool.
Kaneko and she had been at the same schools before, but never really talked, and Roni had just started school again after moving. Both were frustrated with their families and lots in life and Eimi was just- nice. She was very welcoming and willing to listen to their gripes and tried very hard to understand what they were dealing with.
When curiosity got the better of them, they asked her about forming a bond. She agreed, fully expecting them to hate it but both found it very comforting. Having someone to chime in when she forgot a word or difference in culture meant roni started making some serious progress. And it gave Kaneko an out when he felt alone surrounded by his family and their friends.
The three just grew closer through school, and Eimi discovered exactly how far her quirk could stretch as her bonds strengthened.
Ellis was a first year when they were third years, and was assigned to Veronica for some multi-class thing or other. Veronica, actually pretty good at reading people herself, immediately realized that Ellis was starting to resent her own reputation, and because the other two picked up on it just as fast, offered her a place in their friend group which she gladly accepted.
After they graduated, the trio went to different places to get more experience, before coming back together to form their own agency just in time for ellis to graduate and join them.

So, hard swerve from my usual content, I made a crack Avatar the Last Airbender AU while waiting in line for a rollercoaster.
It was just the stupid idea of Ozai dying of a heart attack sometime around the attack on the North Pole. No foul play, not even spirit intervention (though there were probably several laughing their asses off) just genuinely dropped dead.
And the palace immediately goes into lockdown because every member of the royal family is currently nowhere near the Caldera. The plan was to keep things quiet so as to not disrupt the war, until Azula could come back and take the throne. But a handmaid knows what's up and manages to get a letter out to her family.
And this family is fucking sick of the war, so her Sister-in-Law takes is upon herself to go find either Iroh or Zuko with the vague hope they'll be more chill.
Let's be clear, Amane is not protagonist material. She's a middle child of merchants, who had far more qualified sibling who unfortunately were all drafted into the army. Amane only avoided it because she is both not a bender and has a birth defect on her right hand.
She's been helping her aging parents run the family business when she gets word, and being the closest person to the situation, is the one sent to deliver news to the wayward royals. They're tracking the Avatar right? Right? Well no- not currently, but she doesn't know that. She spends a long ass time trying to track them down.
And traversing several continents, primarily on foot, with only one and a half hands is not easy or pleasant.
Amane somehow- by some miracle- manages to stumble her way into the Underground battle, manages to whack Azula upside the head through sheer dumb luck before she can take out Aang. Then basically falls at Zuko and Iroh's feet begging Someone! Anyone! Please get back to the Caldera and take the throne- ... but preferably not the princess she just assaulted.
None come to mind. I really only consistently ship ones rooted in cannon; The Love Square, GabeNath, Lukanette, Adrigami, etc. I like the idea of Lukloe enough to include it in Reborn Kwami, but its not one I seek out or write often. I mostly included it because I needed a different hero to fill Chloé's ladybug obsession.
Reborn Kwami au: Has the Turtle Miraculous come into play yet or is Felix holding onto that one for Master Fu (maybe unaware of what happened to the last Guardian)?
Actually is Felix now technically considered the Guardian of the Miraculous due to Fu giving him the box before Hawkmoth killed him?
The turtle miraculous is being used, I just haven't gotten to designing the holder yet.
Felix is very aware what happened to the last Guardian, it certainly didn't help the madness. He could technically be seen as Guardian but he's more like an intern in the grand scheme of things.
He has no formal training, no staff, no special abilities like Ladybug. Fu never got the chance to officially pass it to him before biting it, so none of the kwami even recognize him as Guardian. And to Felix himself, Ladybug is still the Guardian, he's just filling in until they get her back.
reborn kwami: has juleka or alya ever try to hand out a miraculous to either socqueline and/or luka before?
Luka managed to convince Lady Harmonia he was to overwhelmed by his empathetic abilities or like- to scared for his sister and mom. Regardless Sting got benched.
Bonus:
Seeing as it's essentially just Asher in "her" colors and motif...

If felix owns the rabbit miraculous, which miraculous is alix going to get?
Just curious
I designed Battle Ox a while ago so she really just needed a refresh. I never actually liked Alix having the Rabbit. I get that history is kind of her thing but she feels like too active a character to have such a passive miraculous. Like, we see that Bunnix is a pretty good fighter, but I struggle to see her taking the back seat so easily.
So why not give her the brick wall mriaculous?
Okay, so we have to talk about Kim a bit before we get to our girl here-
So in the back of Soqueline's head she remembers the fated pool incident with Kim and Marinette. She doesn't remember it was Marri of course, but some vague memory of him assaulting a girl with a box of spiders on a date is buzzing in the back of her head.
Marri herself seems fine with Kim and is actually a little put out by Socqueline's refusal to give him a chance. But Dark Cupid really put the final nail in the coffin for her, he's just too dense and bratty to be a miraculous holder.
Now, Alix is still friends with Kim. They have a pretty healthy rivalry going on. So upon seeing them hanging out, Soqueline initially assumes Alix is a similar meathead. But she slowly realizes Alix is actually pretty smart and would never assume something like- embarrassing a girl on film with surprise arachnids is a funny joke. She does tell Alix (and Ondine, who is a lifeguard at the gym) about Kim's poor behavior and crush on Chloe.
They end up becoming a little bit of a trio around the gym and often take the time to attend each others competitions and matches. Alix and Nath are still friends, so she also stops by Soqceline's parent's store with him to chat while he spaces out in the marker isle.
Rose Wing is comfortable enough with her that when she finds the Ox miraculous while visiting America, she decides to trust Alix with it for Pharaoh. Alix manages to catch Alya (Miste Noire was strangely absent for this fight) after body slamming her akumatized brother and berating him for getting his information on Egypt from The Mummy when they live in the worlds most famous museum!
She isn't the most subtle, and actually acts in a bit of vigilante justice upon some bullies, which nearly gets the heroes in trouble. Thankfully Alix cools her jets enough to focus on getting a head start and minimizing the damage of hero fights. Since Asher and Rose Wing can't instant fix things, keeping civilians clear is far more important. Alongside her partners- But you'll have to wait and see for that :)
How would One for All react with a miraculous in your AUs. Would it boost the abilities or remove the time limit or something
Ps. I love your guardian hero story
The short answer? Nothing Good would come of it.
The long answer?
Having a mortal body and holding that much power is extremely dangerous. Toshinori being injured and izuku being a child wouldnt help anything. Maybe a senti-monster would be able to take it? Since the can essentially evolve around the power.
But like- say Izuku used the tiger and OfA at the same time, as best he'd go into organ failure and have to be rushed to a hospital. At worse its would tear him apart molecule by molecule.
He might be able to use a 'weaker' miraculous like the goat or mouse, the latter would also allow gim to divide the power between doubles. But he'd feel the effects of it before long and it would likely kill him.
There are so many fics of these two being scared and/or barring Marinette from Ladybug-ing if they found out. But cannon has proved that adults are extremely willing to let children fight supernatural evils.
Im kidding, I'm actually really happy they're supportive.
The Most Valid Crashout.
Alya kinda pisses me off. Like, its not that I don't think she has a right to be mad. Gabriel hurt her too.
But Girl-
"You know I can't help investigating" Since When?!? Back with Lila she was "I will ignore any and all inconsistencies. Even the blatantly obvious."
It just really makes her feel hypocritical? And also kinda dumb, I can think of at least a few ways Marinette's claims of the Final Monarch Fight could have worked? Like he just grabbed the miraculous of the cat and destroyed them both, pushed him into the massive sinkhole, bomb, jumped in during the wish to put his 2 cents in.
And it is endlessly frustrating that we focused on Alya finding it out. And not even a hint of Adrien being suspicious?
Okay enough about Alya-
Not gonna lie this plan was really good- until the end. Why not have Polymouse stay hidden longer and try to find her identity? Or better yet leave Tilki with her for long enough to figure it out. You can recall the earrings whenever right? So why not wait a few hours? Even if Tikki can't say who it is she can definitely go "Well, its someone you know. Who hates you, and worked with Gabriel in the past. And she once lied about having the fox miraculous-" the worlds lamest 20 questions.
Im getting kinda sick of the stone designs but like, she wears it best i think. Its definitely better than Heartfixer, at least she has an outfit. I like her hair down.
How thematically appropriate that the season finally is Marinette being her own worse enemy.
I commissioned the incredible @zoe-oneesama for a drawing of my darling Peacock Lila; Eiris!
Look at her! My Menace of a girl! She's killing it! And It's killing her!
If you have ever been on the fence on commissioning your favorite artist(s), my opinion is go for it. Like obviously, only if you can afford it and with respect to the artist and what jobs they take/have time for. But the serotonin boost when I saw this in my email had me bouncing off the walls with joy.
I know this turns out to be part of a trick but I would actually really like to see Marinette's miraculous change to look more like these going forward. The studs are easier to hide obviously, but I think our girl deserves a bit more pizzaz after everyone else got unique camo-modes.
It is criminal we don't get a better shot of Scarabella in the new artstyle. Because this eats. despite keeping almost the same model for her hair as her civilian design I like it over the slick back. Still wish we got that Afro though. I also appreciate they made the spots on her mask and suit the same size, the bugged the heck out of me before.
On the other hand-
Oh boy, Rena-bug. There are parts I like, like the shoulder pads and the black patch on her chest along with the zipper seam. The even poofier ponytail is also welcome, as is the mask. My main issue is the spots on her legs. They just feel bozy with everything else.
And finally. The Pizza Resistance (That's french for lactose intolerant!)
Damn she looks incredible. Absolutely adorably, and I am desperately hoping we see more of this outfit. Please everyone do all the fanart.

Ya know, that's actually pretty smart. Especially after the London Special.
Paranoid? Tikki she only has the weight of the world on her shoulders, what about that could possibly be debilitating on a young mind?
I wanna talk more about all the new designs and outfits in a second post but I also want to commend the fight scene. I've been a tad underwhelmed by the fight scene's this seasons.
But Chat's one on one fight in particular really impressed me. They leaned hard into letting him move like an animal on the hunt, and actually catching and kicking the sword was crazy.
It does a really good job of showing that this is something Adrien has been doing for a while and has gotten GOOD at it.
