Here is a generically-titled oneshot where Mal recounts the entire story of the first film to her (uncanon, probably Suvian) daughter. It’s just...pointless. And it has a weird lack of punctuation in the summary.
I don't know the canon, but this old Labyrinth fic is an interesting one. It's one of those fics that read garden-variety bad at first, but grow increasingly annoying as they go on; this fic clearly mistakes being obnoxious for being assertive and quirky. The funniest part: the fic has this habit of making jarring anime/manga references at regular intervals (many of which, IIRC, wouldn't have been published yet at the time of the canon), and the constant reminder that the Sue wears anime cosplay to her grandmother's funeral. All in all, an odd fic.
This very beige, typo-ridden Grisha Trilogy fic. Short, and bad.

Here is an incredibly short and incredibly misspelled monstrosity, again from the GrishaVerse. Whatever the GrishaVerse mini is, there’d be dozens from this fic, as even the word “dumb” is misspelled. I don’t think it’s a troll, though.

A canon character is beat up by borrowed OCs.
Why? Just, why?
Though I could see Lila getting this treatment too. And yay, someone else has heard of and likes Miraculous!
—Ls
Although Lila is the actual more villainy one and Chloe is well, someone with a rough upbringing who got brutally screwed over by both the writers, Ladybug, her parents, her sister and the entire show, Chloe gets so much more hate, and much more extreme hate at that. The people who write oc inserts into Miraculous Ladybug tend (emphasis on tend) to be the most hardcore Marinette fans, and thus the most hardcore Chloe haters.
Also, "likes" is not- exactly the word I'd use to describe my relationship with Miraculous Ladybug. The absolute best praise I could give it is "goodish concept, okay animation". I definitely used to like MLB though, and thus, I have canon knowledge up to I think season 4. I kind of dropped off once I learned about the whole Thomas Astruc thing which was really, really creepy.
I guess that makes sense. Miraculous Suethors are generally pro-Marinette. Huh. (The badfic in question is even called Run Chloé Run.)
And yeah, the animation is okay. Sometimes good, sometimes bad.
And I’m not sure exactly what Thomas Astruc thing you’re referring to.

Here, Mal has an abusive OC husband...and...I just don’t really understand.

maybe space them out a little and don't report too frequently?
I don’t know that it’s too bad. Without knowing the canon either, the biggest things I noticed in the first chapter were the ridiculous “generic illness” and the occasional typo (including the annoying misspelling of allons-y).
Honestly? It seemed a bit more mediocre than outright bad. Maybe it gets worse, but...enh.
