OKAY, BUT I NOTICED IT JUST NOW
IVAN AND MYLENE ARE SO CUTE AND SWEET AND JUST CANON

IVAN AND MYLENE ARE SO CUTE AND SWEET AND JUST CANON

So i’ve noticed and Ivan and Kim’s hair are fairly similar


and it was a car ride home where i thought “Are they related? I dont think they are… WHAT IF they were?”
So, the rest of the ride i made this very depressing AU…
In this AU, Kim and Ivan are brothers, Kim being the older one. Their personalities and their behaviors toward each other aren’t very different from on the show.
Kim still messes with Ivan and Ivan still gets reassurance from others.
Kim is dating Alix in this AU while Ivan still has yet to confess to Mylene…


^^^ has not happened at all
So what goes on is Kim underestimates how much his bullying (not as bad as bullying, but more than picking on…) is affecting Ivan mentally and emotionally, and every time someone keeps coming up to him to try and make him feel better, it never truly works.
One day, Marinette finds him crying in a corner where the lockers are and is all like “Hey, i dont understand-You need to stand up for your self. even if you are the younger sibling, you are just as tall as him- and for a mater of fact, much thicker than he might ever be. Confront him and fix this, Ivan. I believe in you.”
now, Ivan completely understands what Marinette’s trying to say and goes to confront him.
but Kim keeps on messing with him
and Ivan keeps on getting hurt
so he “stands up” for himself and starts to hurt Kim… physically
it was a punch at first, but then it turned into a routine and even more beatings.
Sometimes, Kim won’t show up to school because he has patches of scars, and or bruises.
Alix gets worried and asks Ivan where he is.
Now, Ivan has changed. His face is kind of more… MORE upset. (i hope you understand that :-:) and it looks paranoid.
He would respond “He’s sick”
and Alix being the caring GF she is would respond “you’ve been saying that for the past month and a half. what’s really up with him?”
^^^This starting the phase where Ivan ignores and disses everyone. He keeps to himself, he doesn’t talk, eat with, or sit with anyone. He forced his table mate to move.

Now, being human, Alix does worry, but continues for a bit longer.
With the physical abuse coming from Ivan onto Kim, Kim is actually frightened of him. every time Ivan hits him, makes some sort of contact, he always talks about how this feeling is what he felt like when Kim poked fun at him.
Kim appologizes every time. he is a coward before his little brother and is now having to hide from his parents.
They are occupied with work to ever REALLY check to see if their son goes to school, even if he says he does and actually doesn’t (stays in his room, in the dark, sobbing over his aching body)
eventually, Alix decides to leave for school early one morning, but head to Kim’s house instead. Watching Ivan leave the house, along with his parents (no Kim) she goes inside (back door is always unlocked for emergencies.. which this was) and tries to find Kim.
She does.
and when she finds his thin, bruised, bleeding, scabbed body, soaked and trembling from the tears, she cries with him
and she skips school with him.
and in the time she spends with him, calls the ambulance…
So eventually Ivan is taken to a “care home” or what ever you may call them… to help him with his problems. help him find other solutions.
Kim was so badly hurt for the past 2 ½ months that it took nearly a year to heal again so he could do sports. not even do sports, get started again at the beginning because his muscles arent’ the same.
Marinette later hears about this and apologizes for about as long as Kim as hurt because she said she told him to do it, even though she didn’t literally say it, she is the one to blame.but they all forgive her after the first two minutes of whines.

^^^ So by the end of the AU, the brothers aren’t really quite brothers again, but they are working on it
Kim still goes through (any kind really) therapy, and Alix joins him because she’s his caring GF
and then the rest is up for adding if you’d like :O :)
( I do not own ANY of these pictures, i got them off of google :D )
