Couffaine Siblings is the family ship between Juleka Couffaine and Luka Couffaine from the Miraculous Ladybug fandom.
Canon[]
Even though they don't look like it, Luka and Juleka Couffaine are twin siblings. They are the kids of Jagged Stone, a popular rock star, and Anarka Couffaine, a former bandmate of his. Juleka and Luka live in the Liberty, a house boat docked in the Seine river. Anarka raised them on her own as when she gave birth to them, she and Jagged Stone had already split up. Like their parents, the twins have a talent for music, but weren't told where the other half of that talent came from.
Juleka and Luka are members of the band Kitty Section, which they play in with Juleka's classmates. At some point, Juleka was held back in school and forced to repeat a grade. This put her and Luka in different classes, and it is unknown how they reacted to being separated. However, they still seem to be quite close despite this and share a number of close friends.
Juleka suffers from a number of issues with self esteem. Luka is often there to reassure her, as seen in "Reflekdoll. However, these insecurities manifest in "Crocoduel" as a feeling that everyone loves Luka more than they love her. For her part, Juleka is also very supportive of her brother, especially when it comes to his relationship with Marinette.
Unknown to either of them, they are both members of Team Miraculous. Luka is Viperion, the wielder of the Snake Miraculous, and Juleka is Purple Tigress, the wielder of the Tiger Miraculous. They have worked together multiple times as their hero alter egos to save Paris.
Fanon[]
After Luka was introduced through the reveal that Juleka has an older brother, the Couffaine siblings became one of the beloved siblings of the Miraculous fandom. The support grew once people saw close the two of them are to each other in "Reflekdoll," with Luka showing Juleka loving support in her dream of becoming a model. When their father was revealed to be none other than Jagged Stone it made sense to a few people, as it explains the twins' talent for music and the nature of their hair styles.
When the out of order episode "Party Crasher" revealed that Luka will be entrusted with the Snake Miraculous, people had assumed that he would get in "Reflekdoll" so he could use its power to save Juleka. Since Alya was given the Fox Miraculous when her little sisters were akumatized while Nino was given the Turtle Miraculous to save Alya, ML fans assumed that there was a pattern to when Marinette's friends are given a miraculous to wield and that the Couffaine twins would have been apart of this pattern.
There are currently over 300 works on AO3 for this relationship. It is Luka's seventh most popular ship.
