Thanks for 300 followers! Everyone’s been so nice, and I love being in this fandom! To celebrate, I’m hosting a DTIYS! :D 💖🍭🍬
Rules:
@ me and use the tag #Bee300DTIYS
Draw a Lloyd! He can be the one featured above, your own design, or whatever! The only real rule in interpretation is YOU MUST GIVE HIM CANDY. Let my boy have his candy! You can add other characters, make sequential art, sculpt something, make needlepoint, whatever! It’s all good!
Winners will be chosen at random, raffle-style. I do this with DTIYS challenges to encourage less experienced artists to participate too. It’s not a skill contest!
The deadline is May 20th!
Have fun!
Prize pool:
Top prize: One colored and shaded character drawing!
Second prize: One flat, colored half-body drawing!
Third prize: One character sketch!

I’m not exactly happy with this but I think this is the best I can do. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this even if it’s not my best. To Hattafan2593, I’m really sorry for this taking so long but also if it isn’t what you hoped. Hopefully it isn’t too bad but it gave me quite a bit of trouble. Never the less, thanks sending in a request.

Alya shook as she saw herself destroying Marinette’s sketchpad on video. She had just been trying to avenge Lila as Marinette had stolen her designs and Lila had been so upset by it. She had been in tears and Alya knew that she couldn’t let Marinette get away with stealing her designs. She thought Marinette would know better but apparently not. However, she had no idea that Lila had followed her in secret and filmed her. She had no idea that Lila would actually send the video to the group chat and claim that she had been shocked to see Alya do such a thing. She had no idea that she had outlived her usefulness to Lila. For the last few weeks, Alya had been acting more and more unhinged. She was constantly snapping at everyone and anyone because her blog was no longer popular. People had caught on that it was no longer the most useful blog about Ladybug and that it was basically tabloid trash, devoted to either fake interviews or trying to convince everyone that Ladynoir was the one true ship and that they were actually dating. Even someone as blind and dumb as Sabrina could see that Ladybug was dating the new Fox hero, not Chat Noir but Alya refused to admit she was wrong. It didn’t help that a new blog had turned up. As far as Alya was concerned, this new blog was stealing her views and likes. It didn’t occur to her that her viewers had gotten tired with her blog and she even blamed Marinette for it. She was convinced that Marinette was the owner of the blog. She wasn’t. Alya blinked as the messages began to come through, knocking her out of her thoughts.
Radbitsk8r: What the actual hell?! @Foxwivwifi why did you destroy Marinette’s work?!
Foxwivwifi: Because she deserved it! Lila was upset about Marinette stealing her designs! Right, @modelqueen?!
ModelQueen: I was upset that someone might have stolen them. I never said she actually had. I can’t believe you actually destroy her work!
Alya frowned at Lila’s response. She was sure Lila had claimed that Marinette had in fact stolen her designs but could it be she misheard her? No! She was certain that she had said Marinette had stolen her designs.
FoxwivWifi: No! You said you had seen her taking your designs!
ModelQueen: No, I said that I suspected that someone had taken my designs and that I happened to see Marinette near my locker! That is not the same as saying she stole from me!
Bubbleboy: Alya, that is not cool. I can understand taking a look at her sketchpad to see if she had taken Lila’s design but you can’t just destroy Marinette’s things. That is a crime and you have no real solid proof.
FoxwivWifi: But Lila said she had! I was just trying to avenge her!
ModelQueen: No, I didn’t!!
