** This also applies to his relationship with Marinette. Where in canon, he was firmly against [[DatingWhatDaddyHates Adrien and Marinette's relationship]], he's much more receptive to it, and even notes that Adrien seems equally attracted to ''her''.



* DeadpanSnarker: much of Gabriel's InnerMonologue consists of sarcastic commentary regarding everything and [[SurroundedByIdiots everyone around him]].

* {{Jerkass}}: Make no mistake, this still applies to Gabriel, as he's still rude and condescending to everyone but Adrien and Nathalie. And as in canon, he's not above exploiting this to create Akumas.

to:

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: A familial example. While Gabriel disapproves of Francois-Dupont and would much prefer Adrien remain homeschooled or at the very least transfer to a more "appropriate" school, he's willing to put up with it because Adrien's happy there.

* BrokenPedestal: {{Downplayed}}, as Gabriel already had a low opinion of the Bourgeoises, but initially viewed Chloé as being an "appropriate" friend to Adrien due to her wealth and status. Her [[spoiler: whining and plagiarism of Marinette's derby hat]] quickly shatters that notion.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: [[BigBad Gabriel's]] defining trait is his love for his son. While he still does desperately want Emilie back, he won't risk Adrien getting hurt, and will even [[spoiler: pass up opportunities to create powerful Akumas if it means keeping him safe]]. He's also much more caring and affectionate towards him than in canon.
* {{Jerkass}}: Make no mistake, this still applies to Gabriel, as he's still rude and condescending to everyone but Adrien and Nathalie. And as in canon, he's not above exploiting this to create Akumas.
* ParentsAsPeople: Gabriel's much closer to this than the outright [[AbusiveParents Abusive Parent]] he is in canon. As while he's still a very strict and controlling parent with high standards for his son, he's also much nicer and more attentive as a father.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Gabriel still acts rather classist and elitist. Viewing Chloé as an appropriate friend to Adrien due to her wealth and status, and looking down on Nino for his way of speaking and conducting himself.
* ShipperOnDeck: {{Downplayed}}, but Gabriel quickly picks up on Marinette's interest in Adrien, and notes that Adrien seems to reciprocate. And he's already impressed by Marinette's skill and creativity, and makes a notes to pay attention to her if she's going to become a fixture in his son's life.

Gabriel Agreste is a man with only two priorities. His son, and his mission to claim the Ladybug and Black Cat Miraculous. Specifically in that order.

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/36557470/chapters/91172500 A Father's Love]]'' is an ongoing ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' fanfic by [[https://archiveofourown.org/users/jennagrins/pseuds/jennagrins jennagrins]] exploring the idea of Gabriel being [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes a better father to Adrien]] while still being [[BigBad Hawk Moth]].

!! ''A Father's Love'' contains examples of:

* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Adrien is much closer to his father than in canon. Even referring to him as "Papa", rather than the more formal "Father". And Gabriel's much more attentive to his son than in canon.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Gabriel is much, ''much'' less [[AbusiveParents abusive]] to Adrien. While he still is strict, hard, and controlling, he's a much better father than his canon counterpart. He's also much less of a PoliticallyIncorrectVillain to Marinette, even [[ShipperOnDeck approving of Adrien's interest in her]].
* BrokenPedestal: {{Downplayed}}, as Gabriel already had a low opinion of the Bourgeoises, but initially viewed Chloé as being an "appropriate" friend to Adrien due to her wealth and status. Her [[spoiler: whining and plagiarism of Marinette's derby hat]] quickly shatters that notion.
* DeadpanSnarker: much of Gabriel's internal monologue consists of sarcastic commentary regarding everything and everyone around him.
