Ladybug reacts to Carapace’s presence because he wasn’t supposed to be there
Rena Rouge: There’s never too many of us to win, right?
Fastforward to the one-too-many hero recruited in Strike Back…. When technically Ladybug could have skipped “Adrien’s” recruitment and gone to the past herself… It hurts :’)
(just to be clear, this isn’t salt on her decision. She was hit by Risk, “Adrien” wasn’t. It was supposed to be her safest bet, because she trusts the real Adrien; as a bonus, it was supposed to make him feel better about himself after Félix’s self-deprecating speech. It’s not salt against Alya, either. Ladybee did need that Shield.)
Honestly Felix’s superhero name should have been a red flag that he was up to something because it has nothing to due with a Dog. Everyone else Superhero name, heck even Hawk Moth and Mayura have something too due with an animal but Felix nah. He just combined the words Flair and Formidable which was freaky.
actually, “Flairmidable” is a wonderful name for a dog superhero. In French:
It’s amazing how he came up with a name that put together the senses of a dog, the fact that he thought he was “formidable”, the kind of person he is (intuitive, bright and clever). The fact that he’s used this cleverness for his own selfish means and against Ladybug doesn’t make him less clever!
Fanbases tend to forget the characters of a show do not posses the same knowledge as the viewers. If and when the day comes when Adrien confronts Felix about how he tricked Ladybug, we must never forget that. 1. Adrien can nevertalk about witnessing Felix as Flairmidable because only Cat Noir knows about Flairmidable and his interactions with the miraculous team, Adrien is only supposed to know that Felix tricked Ladybug and unless Ladybug fills him in on the situation, Adrien will need to tread lightly, otherwise he may accidentally and unintentionally say something in a moment of anger that will reveal his identity to Felix and2. Although Ladybug will eventually come to the realization that Monarch is no longer in possession of the peacock miraculous and suspect Felix is connected to it all, Felix may have already planned ahead in the event that Ladybug tracks him down for question, and we know she will, sooner or later, after all, he couldn’t expect her to not find the real Adrien after he separated from the team and he most certainly could not expect Adrien to keep quiet once Ladybug confronted him about returning the dog miraculous.
