how will your AU be? Like, how many seasons, and which episodes are you removing?
Well… my plan is for each season to have around 15 to 17 episodes, I haven't sorted out the number of seasons yet, of course I already have the end of everything, and the end of the first and second season, and not necessarily every episode will have a villain, most do, but we'll have 1 or 3 episodes in each season to develop the characters' personalities and relationships.
My au is a role swap, and considering this, theoretically, it would be a removal of episodes? Of course, that won't always be the case, and we'll have some episodes that couldn't be changed, like: reflekta, since the plot wouldn't make sense with another character.
But we also can't say "let's exclude the episodes I don't like", because I have quite a long list, and many of them are interesting in terms of ideas, but even if they're not very interesting, I can still make the most of the overall plot. However, we could say that we could have a "Dj Wifi" and "Lady Bubble".
For example, episodes like Origins will be divided into 3 parts, but in the organization it will be counted as 2, and the prologue will not be included in the season count.
However, there are some episodes that I could use the idea of, but that we certainly won't have: Animaestro, Antibug and Copycat (another name, same villain, different hero, as far as I can tell), StoneHeart (only the second part), gigantitan (not much I can enjoy), Revanche (lots of spoilers, but Marinette villain), Bakerix and Simplifier (self-explanatory), chameleon, any reakumatization (with a few exceptions), and any child, apart from the puppeteer. Oh, we won't have a silencer (another spoiler, Adrien villain), that's all I can remember now.
About the timeline, I'd give it away, but it would be too much of a spoiler, you know? I think it'll be fun to find out at the time of posting.
