#code lyoko au

So in this au, a few things would be clearly different off the bat -

Code Lyoko is set in France, so that's where Yakko lives here. And at a baording school, which from what I gather is a much more common thing in European countries than in the US.

Yakko and his siblings are also adopted here, by my man Lon (who's also a toon here, and this happens to fit into my hc his parents originally came from France) Except obviously here his parents never left. Wakko and Dot are significantly younger than him here, and not even close to being in school with him.

Which is important in terms of keeping the main secret of the show, aka the supercomputer and Xana. And I like to think Yakko's an expert liar.

Anyway, Yakko basically takes up Odd's role here, while Max Goof takes up Ulrich's. Keeping Jeremie and Aelita the same, though.

Like Ulrich, Max ends up saving Jeremie from a attempt by Xana to kill him and finds out about the supercomputer. And ofc the scanners.

Similar to CL canon, Yakko sneaks his pet into the dorm, except in this case its a kitten he names Plato (because he's a giant nerd XD) Plato kind of destroys Max's pillow, to his annoyance.

Max has a rougher background than in canon here, although idk what that would be exactly. Idk if I'll ever develop this thing further than some art. If I ever do I'll decide then.

But as such, he's more willing to snatch Plato for a test subject. Yakko and the school snobby girl, as in the actual prequel ep, follow him back to the factory, and Yakko accidentally ends up scanned onto Lyoko instead of Plato.

He gets upgraded lazer claws out of it, and I already give him pretty formidable claws as it is lol. in addition to two other powers, a smoke bomb type thing that instead emits a burst of light and a ability to go invisible - but only when he stays still, and it stops working if he moves.

And thus the events of the prequel eps go on, except with a altered cast. And that's how Yakko gets involved :D
