See the catalogue of her works here.
Tropes common to LadybugXPs work:
- Adaptational Nice Guy: Gabriel (when he's alive) is often portrayed as a kind and caring, if somewhat over protective father, rather than the manipulative & callous individual he is the show.
- Adrien's cousin Felix also gets this treatment in Ladybug Hood by virtue of being King Richard.
- Adaptational Villainy: Lila's already portrayed as a uncaring, manipulative liar in ML canon but she functions as the Big Bad in the Aladdin and Beauty & Beast stories.
- Interestingly in Lady and The Cat she's also this to the fairy who cursed the prince. The fairy never attempted to sway the effects of the curse so that she came out on top but Lila tries several times to emerge victorious, including allowing Marinette to use the mirror to communicate with friends, subconsciously urging her into the west wing and tricking Theo Barbot to lead a mob against the castle, knowing Adrien will be forced to fight back and loose what's left of his humanity.
- Decomposite Character: Due to the above mentioned Adaptational Nice Guy, Hawkmoth often appears as a totally separate entity who functions as the story's Big Bad.
- Little Miraculous and Miraculaddin also have Marinette's original form Bridgette appearing as her sister.
- Death by Adaptation:
- Marinette's parents die in Ladybug Hood and Gabriel is dead in the Little Miraculous and Lady & the Cat.
- Chloe also perishes in Little Miraculous by virtue of fulfilling the role of Flotsam and Jetsam.
- Lila meets her demise in the 2nd Miraculaddin story and in Lady & the Cat.
- Fusion Fic: Her major works involve inserting the characters of ML are into Disney fairy tale films but in some works there's slightly more conglomeration involved.
- Lady and the Cat combines elements from both the 1991 film, it's 2017 remake and the original tale by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve.
- The Little Miraculous combines elements from the Broadway musical, a 1975 anime film, and a tie-in children's book in addition to the 1989 film.
- Miraculous Lake is a combo of the Barbie movie, the 1994 film, and a 1981 anime film.
- Related in the Adaptation: In Ladybug Hood, Manon is the little sister of Alix.
- Shipper on Deck: The 7 main Kwami are this to Adrien and Marinette in Lady & the Cat.
- Spared by the Adaptation: Emilie lives in Lady & the Cat but is only freed of the curse in the last chapter.
- Taken for Granite: Those affected by the curse in Lady & The Cat.
