Y'know, Bruno knows a thing or two about hurting and loneliness. I think if anyone would understand your pain and need to just have your hand held it'd be him, for sure. For better or worse, really. Real love is unconditional and he's got a LOT of it in his own neglected traumatized heart. I think he'd empathize big time with your situation just like he always has, and would squeeze your hand extra tight. Without a doubt.

oh my god anon ;-; augh, your message. thank you........ I really love how you worded all of this

I miss self shipping a lot. TF was my main focus for 3 years straight, I shipped with a lot of other F/Os over the years, but it wasn't like a strong fixation like TF was. and since TF became a trigger, for the life of me I just cannot seem to pick up the habit of self shipping again just in general... which is such an empty feeling bc I've been self shipping everyday since I was little. so I look at these other non-TF F/Os who aren't a trigger (i.e. Bruno), and yet my brain is still unable to rly Feel Anything when I look at them... it seems I'm a bit numb to self shipping just in general and idk if it's the depression of losing my special interests, or not drawing/writing anymore getting to me, or the ptsd/trauma, or a combination of all of it.... but then I opened your message and now I am a weepy mess (in a deeply touched and appreciative way)

"Real love is unconditional and he's got a lot of it in his own neglected traumatized heart." god you're so right, he's been through hell and he was so lonely for so long, and he didn't deserve any of the trauma that he had to endure. I want to hope my love with all of my F/Os, regardless of who they are or how long they've been on the F/O list, is unconditional... even when I'm Like This Now. I am not myself, I haven't felt like myself at all for the entirety of 2023, and tbh it makes me feel scared that I'm no longer lovable to my F/Os because of it. People always tell me they love how bubbly and passionate I am with my ships, but I'm just -- I'm not anymore. I want to be! So badly! The number one thing ppl always tell me is "you put so much love into your ships and it really radiates in your art/posts, you seem like such a happy person" but since I've lost all of my joy, it makes me feel worried that my F/Os wouldn't love me, seeing me like this, so... empty, like a zombie going thru the motions.

But that unconditional love feeling, I really felt that in my ships for forever and I want that feeling back so bad. I never used to have problems self shipping before, it was like, the one thing I would have bet my life on, I was so confident about it. and getting messages like yours, it reminds me of how I used to feel, and the way you phrase it all in the present tense... as if you're saying yes Bruno can still hold my hand, Bruno still is here for me regardless of how hurt I am -- it helps a lot. it really helps so much when I read things like this... to imagine him hugging me and telling me he's still here for me, even when I'm not the same as I was

I am rly not good at phrasing things so idk if my response makes any sense, I'm sorry if it doesn't haha;;; anon thank you so much for sending this. It means a lot to me. it really does. every time I get a kind message like this, I cradle it very close to my heart, I go back and reread asks in my inbox all the time... I read this a few times before answering it and it still makes me teary. thank you for telling me Bruno would be here for me ;-; it helps me to actually imagine it, and just a little bit of that spark comes back to me, even if it's momentary. it helps. you helped ❤

“Princesa.”

“Mm?”

Bruno smiles, then carefully pets Keri’s hair back from her tired eyes, tucking a few strands behind her ear. “Are you falling asleep?”

“Mm-mm.” She shakes her head, blinking tiredly. “You?”

“No,” he rasps. “Not at all.”

They’re exhausted, but insomnia’s a bitch; neither of them have slept at all in the last two days. At least they can suffer together, cuddling one another on the couch, watching the rats do some kind of, uh - romantic drama, if Keri had to guess. Bruno’s especially intrigued with the plot, taking initiative to switch out the cardboard cutout scenery every few minutes.

Bruno throws in the occasional oh, no, I can’t believe she said that to him or how is José going to ever recover from this or are they ever going to reveal who the father is or do we have to wait another season?

And after a few minutes he mutters sleepily and disappointedly qué vida más triste to which Keri blearily asks what through the fabric of his ruana and he turns his head to look at her and asks sorry what and she lifts her head and asks what again and he echoes what and she says what you just said and he sniffs and asks with puppyish eyes what did I say

And she squints at him that’s what I’m asking you to which he replies with his brows scrunched together and his head shaking insistently amor I don’t remember what I said and she replies it was Spanish and you said it just after Maria told Luciana that she slept with José behind Roberto’s back and Bruno does that thing where he clicks his tongue against his teeth that Keri normally under non-sleep-deprived circumstances finds incredibly sexy and he shrugs maybe it was uhh qué lástima and he’s about to translate it to her but Keri shakes her head and says no that’s not what you said before

And Bruno blinks at her owlishly before replying how do you know that -- you said you didn’t know what I said before and she presses her lips into a firm line as he continues with wild hand gestures that only a theater kid would bother to use you don’t even speak Spanish how do you know what I did or did not say?

He’s cranky, she’s cranky, but it’s a playful cranky and there’s a glimmer of mischief in Bruno’s eyes when he exclaims Ay Dios Santo Bendito y la Virgen y la Santísima Trinidad! What did I say? What did I say? You don’t even know what I said, for all you know I could have just listed types of flowers and she insists I never claimed to know what you said I just know that it isn’t what you said before and he asks with widened eyes and an unintended voice crack well then tell me tell me go on mi vida tell me what did I say before and she whisper-shouts I!! Don’t!! Fucking!!!! Know!!! That’s why!! I’m asking!! YOU!!!

And this whole exchange is so stupid that she’s gone from sputtering and (half-heartedly, good-spiritedly) scowling and transitioning to giggling deliriously into his collarbone and her laugh is contagious that he’s laughing too and it’s her favorite thing in the world and as they’re gasping for air he’s wrapping his arms around her neck and pulling her closer because he can’t get enough of that beautiful sound she makes when she’s happy and oh my god oh my god these two just want to get some FUCKING SLEEP.

Keri, still giggling at their stupid conflict, reaches out her hand and drapes it across his lap, gesturing for Bruno to hold it.

Bruno misunderstands (or maybe he doesn’t). He blinks curiously. He drops a rat into her palm.

She squints at the rat. Then at Bruno. Then back at the rat. Like she has no clue what she’s holding. Like her brain is buffering. Like where did this rat even come from in the first place. Was he holding this the whole time. Is she hallucinating. Hello God are you there.

Then the rat wants to scamper up her arm because hey it’s Keri we love Keri she’s so nice to papi Bruno I want to give Keri a hug and she shrieks and squirms because she, for some godforsaken reason, forgot that rats could move, but Bruno keeps his arms locked around her and he’s laughing, he’s really laughing, his cheeks are turning pink and there’s fondness creasing at the wrinkles by his eyes, and the rat found its way back onto the floor scurrying for a fallen piece of cheese hidden away somewhere, and Keri’s laughing too and suddenly, finally, ultimately...

...they pass the fuck out.

[frecklystars]

what’s funny is that bruno isn’t even a villain. he isn’t some wicked dastardly antagonist trying to take over the world. he doesn’t have a maniacal laugh. he isn’t even remotely RUDE, this dude is just sitting here dealing with family trauma and he is the most selfless sweetheart in the world. he doesn’t have a classy/flashy design like a top hat or a long flowy cape (altho his ruana IS canonically described as “three sizes too big”), he’s just got ripped pants, sandals, an oversized poncho, and unruly curls.

like he is literally just Some Dude. he is a very ordinary man and normally my type is like... eccentric evil mwah-ha-ha-haaa character with a deep-as-the-sea voice luring you to your doom kind of deal. but. he doesn’t even have a deep voice. he’s voiced by the same guy who voiced the sloth from the ice age movies. HE’S JUST? HE’S JUST SOME GUY? AND MY HEART DECIDED TO HYPERFOCUS ON HIM

#bruno just exists and i've got hearts coming out of my very soul and im SIGHING SO LOUD #and he's like.............................. mi amor... i am just standing here :) #to which i hold his hand and tell him yes. yes you are. #woof #love notes #💕☆ Don’t you see? You’re my good luck charm! ♡💚🔮⏳🐀

it’s a very blurry blink-and-you-miss-it moment and his back/face is turned away from the camera but there’s a lil moment where bruno licks his lips and... um 😳😳😳

I spent 16 hours sleeping today and then I crawled out of bed and still felt Shitty bc of my stupid dumbass work schedule so I’ve decided to finally watch encanto and wtf you guys were RIGHT about this Bruno dude. like eight of you kept saying he’d be my type AND YALL WERE RIGHT... the first time he appeared on screen all ominous and spoopy my heart went bumpbumpbumpbump and then the first words tumbling out of his mouth made me WHEEZE and he’s just so cute and silly and handsome and fuckin!!! PRECIOUS and I want to hold his hands and kiss his nose and walk in a flower field w/ him AND IT HASN’T EVEN BEEN TWO GOTDAM MINUTES

What do you think would happen if Bruno met your villain fictional others? Or, better; how would they react to Some Guy being someone that captured a piece of your heart? I am putting good money on the idea of Megatron being baffled, while Plankton and Starscream just chuck it up to you having good taste in F/Os, so the guy is probably coolio

Oh, I'm so glad you asked!! I think about this SO OFTEN. Can you imagine Bruno visiting this little room in the back of my head full of everyone I've ever loved?? I think he'd be very easily overwhelmed, especially since there are... so many villains.

Not to mention one of them is a hot piece of machinery a big scary killer robot 25 ft taller than him and looking like this:

I've always imagined that Plankton would be very easy-going about it, because he just wants me to be happy. He used to be easily jealous/possessive until he realized... "oh. Keri hasn't smiled like that in a while." He's always reassured that he's my favorite, and nobody's gonna ever replace him, so now he's always rly supportive, just as long as I remember to come back home to Bikini Bottom every once in a while 💚

Other iterations of Plankton tho (Bway/Tour), they wanna start a fight IMMEDIATELY. But that always depends on the new F/O, and honestly if they see Bruno walk in with his shoulders hunched over and his big puppydog eyes looking around while he's squeezing my hand, I'm pretty sure all malicious intent goes out the window and they'd just mutter "oh. well. we're not used to seeing this. are you secretly evil??" and Bruno responds "wh-what? no?" and they say "oh! oh. okay. uh. welcome! do... do you want a chumburger while you're here??"

Beetlejuice immediately wants to make friends. Probably starts flirting with Bruno because... well. Bruno is such a snack, my god, just look at him. scrawny salt n pepper dreamboat. And Beej is the KING of making people uncomfortable, making inappropriate jokes and trying to be as frightening as possible -- but then he sees Bruno's a fan of rats and he's like "AWWW YOU HAVE LITTLE RAT FRIENDS??? CAN I SEE THEM????" and then they start bonding over the fact that they're invisible unloved-until-recently outcasts. But Bruno still keeps his distance sometimes bc... well. Beej is kind of terrifying and comes on very strong. But he still appreciates his company, in small doses.

Cyber Wockee is breakdancing in the corner and Bruno's just like "oh, he dances just like when Agustín gets into the aguardientes :)"

Megatron just kinda... stares w/ his arms folded behind his back. He's not like the other romantic F/Os I have but he's still, like, somewhat BARELY met the requirements? And he scoffs, like, really. REALLY KERI, you don't like me but you like this pathetic creature? HE CAN'T EVEN TURN INTO A FIGHTER JET--

And there are many, many, many more villains, but one of the most important is, YES, Starscream, my Starlight, my Starling Darling, my Starshine, my sweetspark of my heart, my-- yes. You get it. This big, menacing, evil bastard. Has all of my love. 🌟🌟🌟

And he is scowling so fiercely it's damn near demonic, his eyes are narrowed into little flaming slits and he won't say a word. He just glares. And Bruno might try to start a conversation because uhh well this is awkward and he's gonna be sticking around for an indefinite amount of time so he should probably try to get along w/ these ppl? But then Starscream interrupts him and says "so. you're the one taking all of the attention from my little starflower, hm?" and Bruno's squaring his shoulders, putting on a brave face. Yes. yes he IS and uh he doesn't plan on going anytime soon!! but his eyes drift down to those claws and he's sure that he's killed some ppl w/ them and just... how big and pointy this guy is. And how harsh that voice is, it's just. violence incarnate.

And Starscream kneels down and bows his head and glances around, hoping nobody hears - and Bruno's like oh shit this guy is about to threaten me and make my death look like an accident, but no, Starscream's eyes soften just a little. And he grits his teeth bc it pains him a bit to say this, like it's physically difficult to be nice and primus forbid anyone sees him getting soft because of one little human girl. But. He looks at Bruno and whispers "thank you. she... eghh... needs you right now... um. anyway. don't tell anyone we had this conversation." and he stands himself up and saunters away as if nothing happened before the seer can even respond because... well, what the actual fuck WAS that

So fucking enamored by the way Bruno pronounces free entertainment as “free en-tuh-tain-ment!”

Or before that when he says “eh? chk-chk-chkk!” clicking his tongue against his teeth. That’s... 😳😳

#that's hot im fucking sorry i am mmmmmmm. a mess. for this guy #woof #love notes #💕☆ Don’t you see?

[frecklystars]

the fact that poor bruno literally walked around holding his breath, crossing his fingers, walking backwards thru doorways/entrances, throwing salt over his shoulder and stepping over cracks while muttering constantly because he was fucking conditioned to believe that he is a bad luck charm. he internalized and believes that he, himself, as a whole entire person, is bad luck bc he was painted as such a fucking monster by everyone, especially by his own family, the ppl he still loves so much that he still doesn’t leave them even after he “left” them, he sacrificed his well-being to protect mirabel so she could grow up to have a normal life and not have everyone think of her as this horrible twisted awful human being like he was always misinterpreted to be, for an incredible power that he did not sign up for... like just stab me in the chest next time it’ll hurt less

#kills me rewatching the scene where he mutters 'sana sana colita de rana' while hopping over cracks #like he rly thinks of himself as this horrible terrible awful beast who brings bad luck #GOD IT HURTS. CHRIST #we're on ringmaster raven levels of This Is Fucked Up #he spent ten years basically shunned from the family. imagine more than that #bc when he was still living w/ them his family was still so uneasy around him #like doesnt one of the storybooks say that he used to be the star child of the family #and then when he got older he hated himself so much that he shut himself up #and rarely spoke to anyone bc he was so scared of himself and what he does to ppl #even tho he is literally just fucking existing #IT'S NOT HIS FAULT THAT MOST OF HIS FUTURE VISIONS ARE BAD #HE JUST SEES THEM COMING HE DOESN'T *MAKE* THEM HAPPEN #i will kiss all of his sadness away so help me god #'pathetic anxious mess who deserved better' seems to be my number one type huh #woof #love notes #💕☆ Don’t you see?

I feel like no matter what universe I insert myself in, I always somehow squeeze the spongebob musical into it?? Not directly but I’ll make my S/I bring it up. A lot. She’ll just be casually telling STSC of her adventures like oh yeah I’ve climbed active underwater volcanoes, so facing Unicron really isn’t such a big deal to me anymore now that I think about it and he mutters “what’s a volcano”

Or sitting w/ Blades and the rescue squad and he’s pausing the musical every five minutes because “WHY DOES THAT HUMAN HAVE FOUR LEGS?” “well Blades that’s Squidward and he’s--” “WHY DOES THAT HUMAN ONLY HAVE ONE EYE??” “well Blades that’s Plankton and he’s a copepod so--” “AND WHY DOES THAT HUMAN HAVE SUCH LARGE RED HANDS?! HOW ARE THEY ALL BREATHING UNDERWATER I THOUGHT HUMANS COULDN’T DO THAT -- KERI WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME??” and then Heatwave shuts the laptop and snaps “INTERMISSION” because he absolutely is NOT dealing with this right now

Or snuggling w/ Bruno in his hammock and he’s overtired and can’t fall asleep and he asks me to tell him a story, any story, so I rub my gay little hands together and say WELL BUDDY HAVE YOU HEARD OF A SPONGE WHO LIVES IN A PINEAPPLE UNDER THE SEA??

Two days later his rats are re-enacting the whole production and he’s like “wow I’ve never directed a musical before, this is so exciting :D” BECAUSE HE’S SO CUTE OF COURSE HE’D SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT

Anyway I love the SB musical more than I will ever love any other universe I’ve ever fixated on. TFP is a very close second but Bikini Bottom is always gonna be my home 💛💛💛

Following up that last post, I also really love the idea of Bruno and my S/I having this little Thing™ together where she says a petname in english and he echoes it back in spanish

Across the room she calls out “my love?” and he turns and calls back from the corner “mi amor?” or when she greets him and says “well THERE’S my handsome prince!!” and he nuzzles into her neck and says “ahh, mi bella princesa~”

#none of them knows when/how exactly it happened but it just did #i just. LISTEN i just REALLY really love when he speaks spanish #i think its a crime he only said ONE spanish sentence in the entire movie #and it was muttered so quickly and AHH #I WANTED TO HEAR MORE #sometimes when i have the movie on as bg noise i'll switch the audio into spanish #some of the VAs are the same!! which is fun to hear!! #bruno's is different tho :( but that's okay he still sounds really really cuuuute #esp his little chuckle.......... hehehe//// #anywayyy #woof #love notes #💕☆ Don’t you see?

I have just discovered that the man who voiced Bruno is also Sid the sloth and I rushed to share that with you because I have encanto blocked and wasnt sure you knew. Im not sure what to do with this knowledge

I have heard!! And I feel like everyone (not you, not saying this is you, I just mean the general audience for this movie) thinks this is a downgrade, that it's Cursed™ information. but like. listen:

We could have had Lin M/nuel M/randa as Bruno... and sure the guy is great when he writes music and yes I loved his performance as Jack from Mary P/ppins but his voice wouldn't do it for me like John Leguizamo's could. it wouldn't do Bruno justice. he just wouldn't fit the part.

listen. listen. Nobody else can voice Bruno but John Leguizamo... nobody could pull that shit off... the first time I heard his voice I was a little thrown off bc it wasn't what i was expecting, but now I am just. obsessed. w/ every little voice crack and the way he whispers certain words when he stutters and the way that his fricatives are so. gentle. there's a scene (I won't spoil for you, don't worry - not sure if that's why u have encanto blocked for spoilers or just bc u dont want to see it in general) where he is explaining something to someone and just... his speech patterns. his pitch. i queue'd a post about it because it just makes me fall for him even harder every time i listen to it. I am obsessed with the way he so carefully delivers this one line... he is very softspoken and i am so. so here for it. and there's just something about the way his voice rasps, almost as if it is unpracticed - because it is! because the character has most likely not spoken in a while due to, well, things that happen in the movie i will not spoil, and just. there is just SOMETHING about John's voice. nobody else could pull that off, i cannot see anyone else as bruno.

And you know WHAT. To everyone who thinks it's cursed info (not you, sweet dear anon, none of my ranting is directed at you, I am just rambling) I will fucking say it. Sid the sloth is CUTE. he is ADORABLE and SOFT and he has a little speech impediment, just like me -- not the same kind, I have a stutter/stumble and a small lisp -- and he's just. he's a joy. he has little claws that make ticky-tappy-tap noises when they hold something. he's sweet and positive and honestly not as annoying as i thought he was gonna be when I rewatched the first two ice age movies. 

I would rather eat cardboard than ever watch another ice age movie ever again. I don't know if I can sit through the third or fourth or fifth or anything else (but god you do what you gotta do when you wanna keep a hyperfixation going, in this case i wanna keep my encanto/bruno hyperfocus as long as i can). PLUS the animation kills me. it is so old. the designs... sid's design is so terrible. all of the sloths look so terrible. their eyes. dear god. christ on a stick. the humans. the only animal design that didnt kill me was the mammoths/sabretooths tbh--

--BUT!!!!! ... I will DIE on a HILL for that stupid little sloth. Bruno sharing the same voice as him is definitely very WEIRD information and it took me a WHILE to process it, and while I disliked it at first and definitely thought "oh no, cursed" I changed my mind over time the more I watched encanto and hyperfocused on all of his lil speech patterns so now I'm!! so welcoming to it!! I think it's funny when he shrieks in one of the scenes bc it literally sounds like sid lmao. it's great. the range. he has it. he has an adorable sweet sounding voice that is so damn SOFT with his consonants and im soooooo. in love w/ it

I did NOT mean to go on a tangent there but anyway, thank you for thinking of me, thank you for reaching out to me because you thought of me. I love you. I am delirious I haven't slept properly in days and I have a migraine. I love you. I'm gonna pass out soon 😂

Would you help Bruno write a ratnovella or would you accepg being a star of one?

What a charming question! That man could tell me to go crush a few mountains around the Encanto with my bare bisexual hands and I would do it in a heartbeat simply because I love him and he asked me to. Hell yes I will help him write a ratnovella and/or star in one ✨✨

#in fact i would be honored if he would want me to participate in his craft at all #i dont post half of the art that i make and a lot of writing is private #i'd love to share more ofc but it's like. just so MUCH #when friends/mutuals ask to look i almost always say yes #so as someone who creates and keeps creations so close and personal #i think i'd be rly flattered that bruno would want me to look at all #let alone to work on things WITH him #anonymous #asks #self insert asks #💕☆ Don’t you see?

[frecklystars]

did you think about how the other madrigals would react to you? i bet they're thrilled about you! i think they'd be relieved that bruno found someone that makes him so happy x)

This is so sweet... 🥺🥺 ahh thank you for asking anon!! ;u;

In my universe, maybe a single day before the movie's canon events, my self insert just kinda "falls" in the shape of a falling star and lands into the Encanto! In Luisa's arms, actually. She catches her. And she's like "UHHH GUYS I CAUGHT A FALLING STAR" and they're like.. what do you mean you caught a falling star. And she's like "I caught. A falling. Star. From the sky. Just now." And all these little sparkles and stars take the form of a human -- ✨ poof!! ✨ it's Keri!! :D

So they take one look at her and they're like "ok this girl is obviously not from Colombia, what is she doing here??" but the Encanto did not see her as a threat, so she's here and that must mean she's... safe. Right? And someone falling from the sky in the form of a burning star isn't really the weirdest thing they've seen (I mean, this whole family has gifts beyond the imagination, I'm sure they wouldn't feel TOO frazzled)!

I think most of the Madrigals are kind of confused at first about her sudden appearance in their little village, but super welcoming nonetheless. Abuela, however, is wary almost the entire time. She doesn't want to lose her home again, she has to protect the family, and some stranger dropping in from the sky and claiming that she's here to help you with something and when you ask what do you mean 'something' and she says well I don't know to be honest because it's never specific but I just know that I'm here to help you fix anything that's broken isn't exactly what you want to wake up to at 6 in the morning... especially when there is nothing wrong with La Casa Madrigal and the MAGIC is STRONG and so are the drinks.

Over time though, my S/I would be on very good terms with everyone!! Best terms I think with Bruno, Luisa, Mirabel, and Isabela especially, she feels like they're the easiest to talk to. But the family is so big, and she's not a social person in the slightest, so she'd have to recharge her batteries quite often, and she's never had a family dinner before so ofc THAT is also very overwhelming the first dozen or even hundred times... but at the same time, she loves it. She is not related by blood and she doesn't even speak the same language, but they don't leave her out bc of that; they still treat her like she belongs with them and that's something she's never gonna forget.

I don't have my full story planned out entirely yet, but at the end of everything, I love imagining that she's accepted as a part of the family -- and like you said!! I wanna hope they'd all be really happy that Bruno has someone who he can love unconditionally and receive that same love in turn 🥰🥰🥰

#anonymous #asks #self insert asks #keepsake #💕☆ Don’t you see? You’re my good luck charm! ♡💚🔮⏳🐀 #thank you anon 🥺🥺 this was so sweet #i had to rly sit and think abt it!! #and ive been meaning to draw something where #mira is taking her hands during that opening 'welcome to the family madrigal!' #and she's staring at this family wide-eyed in wonder #and she doesnt believe they're telling HER welcome. but they are #and it would be such a rush for her to experience a real family #bc most universes are built off of FOUND families or friendships #this would be her first time seeing an actual family who loves each other #and she didnt get to see that growing up so its surreal but exciting #and maybe a little scary #but she gets along w/ everyone even if she's an anxious wreck the entire time #good thing bruno knows a thing or two about social anxiety #he holds her hand the whoooole time <3

Bruno would think you're an amazingly strong, and beautiful person. Not to mention your art? It's like you look at it and experience a warm hug!!! He'd pick you up and twirl you in the air. Then probably fall down cause let's be honest, this man's upper body strength ain't much. But this leads to cuddles on the floor! Win win!

🥺 im going to frame this on my ceiling above my bed so it's the first thing i read when i wake up ❤
