it's interesting to me that chloe's new model is depicted with even more bee imagery, despite her no longer being the holder of the bee miraculous. i don't believe for a second that asstruck put any forethought into a redemption arc since he's been drinking that chloe haterade from the beginning; but, i personally just like to believe chloe is so deep in denial at the moment about losing everyone and everything that she is literally grasping at straws to cling to her old, spoiled life.
i was saying to cece a few days ago, it's very telling that the short clip we see of chloe, she's trying to find a new minion and appears to be entirely alone in the video. i want to believe this is insight into chloe being isolated and proof that she 1) hasn't made any efforts towards change and 2) hasn't made any new friends in london because of it. because if she wanted to actually rub it in that she was so much better off, why not show off all her new friends?
she can't. because she doesn't have any.
but again, i don't trust asstruck or his ability to make chloe anything other than the bully or the villain.
some quick portrayal notes!
this blog is considered canon-divergent past season three. this for two reasons: one, i haven't finished the show ( i am currently on s4 ) so if i get any information wrong or make headcanons that later may or may not be retconned, this is why; and two, i plan to explore a redemption arc for chloe because we were robbed of one.
in line with both @yinbug and @yangnoir's portrayals, the timeline between s1-s5 does not happen in the span of a few months. chloe is 13 at the time of origins, 14 through season one, 15 through two and three, and 16 through four and five. this will make her sixteen in my main verse.
chloe is a closeted bisexual/biromantic. a lot of this has to do with the status of her family. her father being a politician and her mother being toxic at best, chloe fears how she ( and by proxy, her parents ) may be perceived if she openly admits to having feelings for girls as well as boys. image is everything in her family, and chloe doesn't want to tarnish that — at least not when it comes to her romantic/sexual identity, so she definitely struggles with some internalised fears of rejection.
part of the exploration of chloe's redemption will include her focusing more keenly on her ballet. thus far she has been practising it for eight years and takes pointe classes, though it didn't become a very serious interest until she began to realise she needed to turn her life around. the discipline and focus needed in ballet, and especially pointe, gives chloe a much needed outlet for her frustrations and anger.
this will probably be expanded on/added to as i make my way through s4 and s5.
just kidding. i posted two things. now im disappearing for three more months.
i sign in. i post one thing. i disappear again for three months.
anyway, chloe is a gemini. born on june 4, to be exact.
wow i can't believe baby sabrina and baby chloe are in the new leo movie coming to netflix

you want to see who they are at their core. your love smiles for you. they put on a brave face. they tell you off when you're out of line and they encourage you when you know your mistakes are piling up. they're the one who is always there. but there are moments you catch them unawares and that is when you watch them. you want to see the expression their face takes when they aren't being brave for you. you want to see how they smile when it isn't designed to lift your own burdens. you want to see what they say to everyone else. how they talk about you. how everyone else encourages them or if they let anyone be there at all. you want to see what is underneath it all so you can prove that's who you love. the parts of them they try to hide. the parts they think you don't already know and adore.

sexy character concept to me: liars who lie & perform and when they are told to stop performing they start lying in a different way and you try to get to the bottom of the layers upon layers of half-truths to find The Truth and when you think you’ve finally gotten to it it’s a blank piece of paper that says 404 not found
