(Aww, yeah!! It’s Multimouse time!!)

Summary of the fic:

‘The Supervillain Rehabilitation Program,’ is a project funded and backed by Bruce Wayne seeking to give villains looking for a chance to start a new that very opportunity. … But it’s not received all that well by the public. How can you just accept someone who terrorized your life for the past years with open arms? One of their recipients, who seems to be gaining quite a lot of scorn is Dr. Victor Fries — who just wants to experience a normal family life with his newly resurrected wife, Nora Fries. Most don’t regard the project with anything other than a side-eye — well, most except one person, apparently.

Life at school is still chaotic and Marinette wants a change of scenery — it’s only been a year or two since she stepped into the Ladybug mantle, but it feels like eternity. As much as she loves her family, she isn’t sure she’d survive with her Aunt Gina’s chaos and she doesn’t really want to stay with her grandad for… reasons. (Canon may look over his not-so-subtle racism, but I won’t … And, cmon. I need a reason for this fic to work guys. Suspend your disbelief just a smidge.) So when she sees this opportunity she’s quick to jump on it.

Some (Damian) think that she has loose screws, others wonder if she somehow has ulterior motives, but really, she’s just a bored teen with experience with villains and too much time on her hands.

Now let’s focus on Marinette!:

(This takes place post Hawkmoth defeat and would take place probably in 10th grade.)

If I can be honest, I thought it’d be funny if Marinette found a peaceful life and city a wee bit boring. (Which is half of the reason why she ended up going to Gotham.)

Don’t get her wrong, but like… after two years of chaos, you get used to it, maybe you even expect it. At first she revels in the peace and quiet but after some time she just starts to feel restless. (And it takes some time to grapple with that. ‘Shouldn’t I be thankful that I don’t have to deal with that anymore? Does this make me a terrible person?’)

So, I wanted Marinette to deal with her jitterbug nerves by traveling around Gotham — it’s not like she’s fighting anyone or getting in the way of fights! Pssh, no way. Did you forget that this was, like, an unofficial vacation for her? The Mouse Miraculous allows her to be inconspicuous while also having fun!

..But if she happened to stumble across a fight or two and somehow the bad guy ended up running into a trash can that wasn’t there a minute ago, would that be too crazy? And if the heroes just so happen to feel as if a lot of their fights ended a lot quicker than before as if someone was helping from the sidelines.. would you be mad? Who’s gonna tattle, anyway? Tell her mom all the way in Paris? She won’t even get caught! Right?

…

What’s that ominous ‘…’ for..?

Marinette uses the Mouse Miraculous here!

As vaguely shown in the drawings, Marinette pretends to be a mischief of mice hiding away in a mecha-supersuit. I think it’d be fun if Marinette broke out into other forms of creating (why limit her to one form) and I do love the mechanic Marinette headcanons and fics — so here I am!!

I’m tempted to have her refer to herself as the Mousketeers… hm. Regardless, when she’s bouncing around the city she dons on different personas! Like one of them shown above, Rathos (a play on the three musketeers thing — though it is subject to change), the so-called self-identified leader of the group! She almost seems to be quite kooky and scatter-brained except when she locks into action. She’s seen as the figurehead of the group since she’s the one that the heroes end up seeing the most — but Mar does have other personas she plays as too (One, being her main suit, is her when she isn’t acting.) What’s their names? .. I’ll uh.. (Checks index cards which are filled with doodles) I’ll get back to you on that one…
