MMZ roleswap au where Copy X tries to defeat Ciel and Omega.

Lore stuff under the cut:

Ciel:

Ciel's the latest in a line of Neo Arcadia's rulers raised and genetically altered with a biocode to control Omega, and thus all reploids.

Instead of doing that Ciel uses her links to reploids as a bunch of cameras and weapons to control the human and reploid populations.

She met Alouette before her brain got stitched to Omega's and was the only person to care for her wellbeing.

It /seems/ like she's using Omega as a tool but she still cares for his safety and gets scared when he's damaged. She sees him as her only reliable partner in this mess. Without him, she's alone.

If this were an actual production you wouldn't hear her voice until the very end. She talks through having nearby reploids talk in legion-speak.

Copy X:

As the only immune reploid, X has a difficult job ahead.

He wakes up with a massive memory gap, red eyes, a higher pitched voicebox, and a cryptic cyber elf insisting he get up and fight.

Cyber Elf X takes a more active role since he can grant mass resistance to allies.

Unlike with Zero, Cyber Elf X has much less patience or fondness guiding Copy X, since all he can see is his own mistakes and past self.

Towards the end it's revealed he's a copy of X created by Ciel before she linked with Omega, in an attempt to have some way to oppose the two and any future for Neo Arcadia's government.

L’Alouette

Being a total bird nerd, I had to do a little dive into this somewhat bird-themed chapter of Les Mis.

What is an “alouette”? Many have heard this bird’s name through the children’s song “Alouette, gentille alouette” which is popular even in non-French speaking countries. An “alouette” is a “lark”, the common name for the avian family Alaudidae (which contains 100 species).

What type of lark is Hugo referring to in 1.4.3? It is almost certainly the Eurasian Skylark (Alauda arvensis) or “Alouette des champs” in French.

This species has been referenced in literature throughout history, likely due to its proximity to humans and its distinctive song. The Eurasian Skylark lives in open habitats such as fields and pastures and has an incredibly long song which it sings persistently while in flight.

So why did the townspeople choose to call Cosette an alouette? The text tells us that Cosette is a:

“...trembling, frightened, and shivering little creature, no bigger than a bird, who was awake every morning before any one else in the house or the village, and was always in the street or the fields before daybreak.” (Hapgood translation)

The Eurasian Skylark is a relatively small bird around the size of a sparrow (17.5-19.0 cm). They forage on the ground where their plumage can make them nearly invisible. They are also said to be the first bird to sing in the morning. I couldn’t find any scientific evidence that this is true, besides learning that their “ground song” (sung by both males and females from the ground) is mostly sung in the morning. However, I did find some cultural allusions to this idea.

“Au chant de l’alouette” (literally translated as “at the singing of the lark”) means “very early in the morning” or “at the crack of dawn” [wiktionnaire]. (Though I don’t know anything about the usage of this phrase, i.e. how much it’s used or when it’s from.) From wikipedia: “Ethnomusicologist Conrad LaForte points out that, in song, the lark (l'alouette) is the bird of the morning, and that it is the first bird to sing in the morning, hence waking up lovers and causing them to part, and waking up others as well, something that is not always appreciated.”

My guess is that since the skylark is a small, drab bird that is often found flittering on the ground and is generally considered to be the first bird to sing in the morning, Cosette was dubbed “l’alouette” by the neighbors.
