also off topic but about Chloe- "I know Zoé is kind of a stand in for chloé but she never really did enough for a convincing redemption (maybe that will still happen in the future if her worried face in the season 4 finale is any indication but that's not really relevant)" (didn't saw anything about their names personally so not adding that part)
our biggest problem with Thomas about Chloe and Zoe is he openly hates Chloe and kinda added Zoe as a replacement just because a lot of people loved Chloe and such, and he refuses to acknowledge Chloe's obvious trauma and abandonment issues and had implied (or straight up said, i don't remember) that Chloe can't have trauma because "Zoe has the same mom and she's just fine" (which is wrong in many ways like how they both have issues caused by their parents except it's different for them both and we can't expect the same response to trauma from different people) Chloe almost did have a redemption arc btw, he just didn't want Chloe to have a redemption and ruined it with miracle queen. he openly let us know that "Chloe is a bully and can't be redeemed, fucking hate her already, she was inspired by my bully and i can't move on and accept that middle/high school bullies aren't always evil psychopaths from hell" (basic translation from a lot of different statements and some creative writing from my side XD)
in short, we'll most likely never get Chloe redemption arc that she deserves just because Thomas didn't like that we love Chloe. he even turned Sabrina and Chloe's slowly getting a bit better friendship to sl*v*ry basically. it wasn't the best relationship before sure but they cared for each other at least, do roleplaying/cosplaying and spend time together. you can't tell me that wasn't at least something close to care and the newer version of their not-relationship-relationship was how it always was
most salt about Zoe i saw is how she's just a replacement for Chloe because Thomas hates Chloe or how her "character" which is being nice and opposite of Chloe (not really a character and just trying to make us love and care for her, forgetting all about Chloe) isn't enough of a character to go from, if it were a "show not tell" in her introduction and they didn't tell us everything as "here, feel bad for her, detailed story of life of a rando you don't know" it would be so much better, it would be good writing tho and we don't have that in miraculous that much (fandom stuff are great tho, I'm talking about the show)-
i do love Chloe and they did our gal dirty with her redemption arc going down the drain and a creator who blocks fans because they asked/told something he doesn't like, overall chaos and too much on Mari's plate that she can't think straight, and a kitty who has no outlet that he can talk his feelings with unlike mari and a big lack of communication overall (not gonna talk about obsession/stalker issue but there's that too-)
