Time for a miracle, Plagg!"

Based on Miraculous Ladybug and Jungle Book: Shonen Mowgli, as seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1y2U7wMz2o&list=PLN27akZUvwXAxfloU--jX7yCR7ganYtEr&index=1

Lala's hero form: https://www.deviantart.com/senshi05.....Lala-969368268

Lala often puts on airs and is quick with the snooty mean girl front, trying to show up her rival Mowgli. However, when an Akuma is unleashed on the Jungle, she strikes a rather cheesy pose and calls for Plagg to transform her.

Lala lifts up her upper body and thrusts out her ring for her Kwami to enter. This is for what her body starts to morph into a humanoid form and completely transforms her along with her black catsuit. The Miraculous's enchantments allow for a quadruped animal to adapt to biped body fairly fast but not without some teething troubles.

As such, Chat Noire can be rather clumsy on top of adapting to her far more touchy feline reflexes. With this new identity, she plays herself off as a bit of a dork if only to for her cover. As she would put it, "Ladybug's the stalward hero while I bring the personality."

Though... who is the real her?

———-

I hope to do some concept art of the male and female leads of this AU before expanding to the wider cast. Particularly poses for transformations and attacks as well as personalities. Here, Lala loosens up to become Chat Noire.

For Lala, her pose actually imitates Adrien's when he becomes Aspik since the ring disguises itself as a wristwatch of sorts (the wolf pack has a lot of accessories left behind by would be human hunters): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLQkqD9lqyl

However, the rest of her transformation is very much Ladynoire's: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGZw1BItr2s
