Summary: When the good king Thomas left his nation to the care of someone he could trust to fight a war , He unknowingly caused his people pain. the new temporary ruler squeezed the life out of people making taxes sky rocket and people becoming so poor they could barely eat. Good thing Lady Hood and her band of "Merry Maidens" are there to help steal from the rich and give to the poor.
Additional Information: Yes I know Adrien as Chat Noir is usually Robin Hood but... C'mon Marinette as Ladybug would so be a better Robin Hood~ Besides Merry Maidens sounds really cute for a squad name. This has been sitting in my phone for MONTHS. TAKE IT ! I have a LOT of ideas for this AU ... let's see if I actually DO anything with it.
Ladybug glares at the Prince the moment she puts him down.
" you reckless and daft fool! What were you thinking?! Are you trying to get killed?!" She was angrily pacing back and forth as she ranted at him
Adrien huffs and crosses his arms "ok so I was a bit over zealous to see you again"
"A bit?! Try a lot!" Her hands were moving rapidly as she tried to calm herself. She takes a deep breath.
" You Sir NEED to be careful! You NEED to value your life."
Adrien looks at her with no regrets and gives her a wink " It will be fine, I know you will always catch me!"
She crosses her arms, her face in a cute agitated pout, pink dusting her cheeks " Don't test our luck."
He gives a smirk " You are the epitome of Good Luck M'Lady!"
She sighs and rubs her temples, clearly exasperated "why can't you be afraid of me like every other wealthy person" she mumbles clearly annoyed.
"Me? Afraid of the most beautiful thief who is for the people? Never!"
" You are impossible "
" So I have been told my Lady" he smirks, clearly not regretting one little thing.
She groans " Impossible , simply impossible."
"But useful my lady, i am very useful to you~"
"That you are , an I am grateful for your... intimate details of our "royal highness" and their movements "
Prince Adrien's expressions grows serious " Of course, King Thomas... abd even the late Queen, with how little i knew her... Would be dismayed at all this"
Ladybug looks away " you have no idea..." she mumbles.
"Pardon?"
"Nothing... " she said quickly in a tone that clearly warned him not to question her " C'mon let's let you br found again by the royal guard.
He grins again as she picks him up and drops him off near the entrance of the castle. She helps ruffle him up and make him look like he got mugged by her again.
"Oh my beautiful but devious lady. Such a scoundrel, he wailed dramatically as he hands her a large drawstring purse full of gold coins " Stealing from me of all my wealth!"
She giggles as she takes the money " oh my good sir~ Thank you for your donation to the poor of Paris~~~"
"Always unwillingly~" The Prince said with a grin and a wink.
