Sabine also knows martial arts and Marinette does gymnastics canonically so I think they would both teach her how to fight
AU where Tom is basically Rocky Balboa but quit boxing after the events in the movies to live with his wife Sabine.
Maybe Roland didn’t agree with his drastic career change to a bakery. That makes their falling out much more plausible if you ask me.
Marinette has lots of hidden muscle that is defined by her suit - which would probably be more practical and have bandages around the hands and a headpiece. Tom would teach her boxing moves and how to deal heavy hits.
Ladybug absolutely floors Anansi, who hands over her akuma in respect (when seeing the boxing gloves her Lucky Charm gave she grinned). After, she offers Nora advice on boxing as Marinette, revealing who her father is.
The events in Weredad happen the same, except Chat Noir is much more beaten up and exhausted from the fight they have. At the end of the episode, he learns who her father is and gulps.
Tom gives Adrien lessons whenever he can because he cannot stand seeing the boy so skinny. Sabine just watches in the background, muttering something about a ‘Creed’.
Lila’s plot to expel Marinette absolutely fails because the fact that she didn’t get a concussion (or at the very least a broken bone) from a push from the daughter of a boxer made her tale hard to believe. Kim can contest since he got quite the injury in an arm wrestle with her years ago. Tom refuses to believe Lila since he taught his little girl how to do so much more damage to her opponents.
That day is the day that Lila reconsiders ruining Marinette’s life.
Chat Noir is much more flustered around Ladybug, and has to stop himself many times from asking her to fling him across the horizon. The Ladyblog catches his blushing and gets many comments about how many would be too in his situation. Marinette turns red when Alya shows her them.
One last detail I want to add to this AU is that Marinette has shorter hair for her convenience. I’m thinking it’s in a long bob, similar to Kagami’s, but it reaches no farther down than her shoulders.
Kagami also respects her for her fighting skills. Tomoe allows them to hang out together when learning of her heritage and parents.
Maybe this could lead to Adrien x Marinette x Kagami?
I wanna see a fic where Dick Grayson mentors and essentially babysits Team Miraculous. Like, training Ladybug, listening to Chat, making Kagami chill, helping Chloe, letting Rose do his makeup(she’d make him pretty), and other stuff with future heroes. But like, no Daminette, no salt, just Dick Gray and Team Miraculous fluff. Please, someone make this happen. If anyone does, please tag me.
