... But... ok, hang on. How would he control or communicate with Nooroo/Sandboy? He can't become Hawk Moth if Nooroo is busy being akumatised. Plus, he wouldn't be able to sense Nooroo's feelings because he needs to be Hawk Moth for that to happen, and Nooroo would be inside the brooch. There's no way this theory could work that I can see. Gabriel would be giving up his powers to make it happen with no way to undo it except by Ladybug, and he wouldn't know it had been undone until Nooroo came back, and Sandboy could steal the brooch from Hawk Moth, thereby removing Hawk Moth's power over him. It's safe to say he can't or won't akumatise Nooroo, since he'd have no way to communicate with, watch, or control Nooroo since he'd just be Gabriel. Additionally, Nooroo wouldn't willingly transform. Astruc has also said, I believe, that all people who get akumatised actually agree to become akumatised. Gabriel would have no way to talk him into it, because he'd be Gabriel, not Hawk Moth.

It's maybe possible that Nooroo being depressed or it being Nooroo's birthday might tamper with his powers, though.
