[miracles-and-butterflies]

So, is Luisa going to run away with Mirabel now? Or will she actually go back to see the family?

(It probably supposed to be Bruno-centric au but who cares)

Go back to the family.

Though she’s not happy about it.

Or tries to, anyways.

~~~~~~

Unlike Luisa, Mirabel had taken a very direct and simple path to the river, which made getting back easy.

By the time they reached Casita’s remains, the rest of the family was gone.

No doubt they’d all gone off to some new house after hearing whatever nonsense Bruno had to say. Probably hadn’t even noticed that Luisa had disappeared or that Mirabel was still missing.

“What are we going to do?” Mirabel asked hesitantly, shivering.

Luisa stared at the area, almost turning in a full circle.

She has no idea where they could have gone. She doesn’t know any of the townspeople particularly well enough to knock on one of their doors. She doesn’t think any of them would even answer this late at night.

But there is one…

“Luisa?” Asks Padre Flores, when he opens the door to her. He looks very confused. “It’s the middle of the night.”

“We need a place to stay,” she explains.

“My condolences for… what happened earlier with Casita and the miracle. I’m sure all will be well with time. But shouldn’t you two be with the rest of your family—”

“Please. I never ask anything from you for the work that I do, but I need a favour.” Luisa argues.

He does stop.

He looks between Luisa, who has a foot already wedged in the doorway - not against the idea of forcing herself in, and then Mirabel, half-asleep and cold against her sister.

He’s a bit hesitant about letting her in after all he’s heard over the last few hours. But he looks back at Luisa and gives in.

“Okay.” He says, stepping aside.

Undertale/ISaT crossover thoughts 3

(aka the 'Sif and family explore The Island' edition)

Had a lot of Undertale/ISaT crossover thoughts (here's the post for how I'm crossing them over in general, and here's the post for an overview of each of the three major plot lines) but most of my actual thinking has been about Sif and family exploring The island so I'm gonna go into some depth for once rather than overview and hope this is useful for ideas for anyone writing any sort of 'Sif and family go to Sif's homeland' fic rather than the Undertale crossover centric stuff most of the other posts have been.

Side note: Location names in my notes is very minimal at this point as I generally look up names last when plotting anything. But er, working name of the Island is The Isle of Chara (because Undertale's Chara is kind of a big deal in this actually and good odds the final name will probably have Chara in it) so please keep that in mind in case I somehow end up typing that somewhere here in my notes.

---

Start:

Sif and family's plot starts with the return of colours and memories (caused by the breaking of the Barrier by the monsters). A day is spent kind of just 'emotionally reacting' to all that (Sif's kind of overwhelmed and in tears) but next day the group actually sit down and discuss whether it's worth them going or not because, yes they are the Saviours of Vauguard and yes they're right next to Bambooche but well, who knows what state the Island is in right now and if it turns out to be... Unpleasant, it is definitely going to hit Sif hard.

Siffrin, naturally does want to go, but am definitely having Sif mentally going over all the potential horrors of the situation (everyone just... Vanished without a trace leaving empty streets and homes? Piles of skeletons because everyone died in an instant? His parents completely untouched by the passage of time wondering why he, an adult stranger covered in scars is claiming to be their missing child?) before confirming with the others he's up for this and that they'll need his Island language skills in case of survivors and for reading signs and records anyway.

How do they get there:

At first the think of taking a boat but well, turns out the Island wasn't the only thing erased from memory and as they reach Bambooche it becomes apparent that- Oh! That 'spooky hill everyone just avoids' is actually a really big and complete with steel, concrete and 'our world modern' tar road bridge, that goes all the way out over the ocean and clearly extends towards the Island.

Cue Party stopping by Bambooche's harbour and the local House of Change to get an idea of options: The House also wants to send people to Vauguard's new/old neighbours (in general all the Houses in Vauguard are very curious and there's a ton of messengers and 'Message Craft' going back and forth everywhere right now) and they promise to get the word out to everywhere (including the press) that the Saviours of Vauguard are investigating so no one has any reason to worry. Cue awkward/nervous Mirabelle laughing and trying not to freak out at the pressure of being so important... Again! While many local sailors are willing to make the trip but well, prepping the ships for an unknown landing will take a while and everyone is nervous about the 'was apparently always there' giant bridge looming overhead (what if bits of it fall?).

So after a bit of back and forth the party go for the bridge. It needs people to check it for structural damage and Sadnesses anyway and the party have people capable of handling both (gives Nille construction analysis skills) so welp!

Bridge:

Actually approaching the bridge the party spy some weird 'metal lumps' that as they approach several members of the group (not just Sif) recognise as long abandoned cars. Which are everywhere, to the point its genuinely hard to get around them, and the group realise the 'little building next to the bridge' is actually the entrance for an underground car park. Cue the group finding a 'building' built into the base of the bridge; sadly the door is locked and despite Isabeau and Nille's best efforts they can't smash it open, but Sif's pretty sure it's probably the door to a train station judging by the glass and metal tube they can see running from the side of the building base all the way under the bridge.

Cue talk on what the crab a train even is as they make their way back onto the actual bridge and start climbing and hopping over the sea of cars (Odile wants everyone to know she hates all this jumping btw), but the silly vibes stop dead when the groups starts seeing the remains of car wrecks and some never buried corpses left at the wheel/caught between two lots of crumpled metal (it's been like 18 years so they're pretty much all picked clean skeletons but yeah, Bonnie is definitely having their eyes covered by Mira). ...Isabeau points out that all the cars and remains here very definitely indicate that the people of the Island were not instakilled/frozen in time by whatever happened and, most likely, they were hit by the memory erasure effect and those who could remember how tried to flee the Island for places less detrimental to their psyches but... It's honestly kind of amazing that there aren't more crash wrecks and bodies given how mentally distressed everyone driving must have been.

It doesn't help cheer anyone up but the observation is noted (Sif keeps getting shoulder pats from everyone since well, this isn't the worst case scenerio but it's pretty bad), and the group continue walking until finally they reach a 'Craft' Station (think gas station but like, magic wish stuff for fuel or something. Thinking there's a favor tree 'tank' next to the building and everything) where they find a few scribbled notes in Vauguardian from the last worker there (bilingial type, lived on the island, trying and failing to remember the island and 'something, someone?' important they left there, decided to head for Vauguard but only after noting down everything they can and making sure all the 'time preserving seals' on the food storage containers are working properly. Just in case someone needs them) and a whole heap of fridges and 'glass cases' with somehow still fresh food inside them. Sadly the cooking implements in the building weren't nearly as resistant to the flow of time but the group decides they'd rather spend the night outside in their tents anyway so they set up camp, Sif shares more of what they do and don't know about all this weird stuff they keep encountering (some but not a lot; Sif recognises the appliances and roads but their coastal hometown was much more 'traditional' and they don't have a clue how all these high tech craft machines actually work outside of making sure they're set up right and flicking a switch) and have a nice dinner before going to sleep.

Next day is walking, with a side order of more walking. Mood is a bit better after talks and rest, but most of this gets skipped (during which the precipitation that collected on the bridge during the cold night evaporates into a thick fog, and then starts slowly clearing up under what looks like strong sunlight) until the group finally see the actual island itself for the first time and- Oh wow. That's an actual city (for an idea of the visuals please imagine the city in the background of the Undertale credits scene where Papyrus is driving along a bridge in a car). Group are blown away because, damn, somehow they weren't expecting that (this is waaay too big a place for them alone to explore, thank goodness the Houses will be sending teams in soon) except for Siffrin who promptly recognises the place as something of a tourist/heavily Vauguardian influenced city that he used to visit on rare occasions with his parents: Usually for big events like going to see a big theatre production on his birthday or to attend the Island's biggest Change festival (brought over by the large Vauguardian immigrant population) which his mom's family always loved attending.

The City:

Takes the group another hour or two to actually reach the city itself (walking takes time alas) but when they get there, yep there sure are a lot of signs in Vauguardian and little Change God statues everywhere. ...Also a lot of signs of looting and unchecked plant growth and 'feral' animals everywhere but most of the buildings look pretty good (Odile is still instantly 'none of us are entering going up or down any floors past ground level in any of these without good reason before Nille/other professionals can check them over for instability' though), and though it takes a bit of awkwardly trying to read a rotting signpost map, Sif is able to guide everyone to the central train station...

Which still has its automated trains working!!! (Sif takes a moment to brag about how 'of course they're still fine! All public transport systems are safe guarded by the best protections applied Wish craft can manage' before wondering why they feel so proud of that something their dad used to say a lot?) Cue party quickly finding the 'Vauguard line' which, yes is working and is just waiting for passengers, and (before proper discussion of 'do we take the train back to Vauguard and unblock the station doors on the other end' can be had) a trainline that stops by Siffrin's home town down by the Island's Southern coast.

...Needless to say, they go for Sif's hometown first (they're 100% planning on unblocking the Vauguard station's door at the nearest possible opportunity afterwards though).

Cue silly scenes of everyone boarding the train, comments being made of the silly 'mascot' figures in black and white everywhere (thinking I may cameo Ingo and Emmet in setting), Odile mentioning that she remembers riding trains -much less sleak and automatic than these ones- in Ka Bue during her youth (presumably their use being associated enough with the Island they were forgotten about when the Event happened), Isabeau turning out to be majorly freaked out by the closing doors and general nice vibes before whooosh they're off to Sif's hometown.

Siffrin's hometown:

Party get a nice scenic view of the coast and a lot of 'old fashioned if fancy' looking coastal buildings as the train zips along and pulls into an elegant if overgrown looking station (I'm thinking greek column/smooth plain stone everywhere vibes and IDK why).

One side of the station leads away from the coast in the direction of what looks an actual town, while the other goes towards the coast and in general seems like a much quieter 'district', with lots of more old fashioned looking buildings (some clearly more damaged by the years without care than others), lots of trees, boat houses and cobbled pathways.

Naturally Sif immediately heads in the direction of the coast, at first slow then running ahead as he recognises the streets and houses before finally stopping at a house in very good condition. Party catch up and yeah... This is Sif's home. That tree had a swing, the marks on the door are from when Siffrin got it into his head to try carving 'stars' on everything for 'good luck', that over there is the 'public door' to Dad's observatory he left open to the public because all Islanders deserve to have unrestricted access to the stars but just as often people from town would just walk right through the house to get there because Mom loved having so many guests and their 'private family rooms' all had locks so letting people freely wander their home was fine and-!

...Yeah Siffrin is terrified of going in alone but fortunately their family of choice is there and well, in they go.

Everything inside is in equally good nick (the place itself is simple and homey but also clearly high quality stuff everywhere) and somehow only very barely dusty, though the group are quick to notice that all the cupboards are bare, there's clear signs of someone searching and packing away things (books all over, things left open, scattered things like bowls and cups -someone trying to decide what to take?) and well. There's a bunch of notes, written in Vauguardian on the kitchen table. Odile reads it out:

The writer cannot remember her name, or where she is, her family which she knows she must have because there's three plates here, just as there are three bedrooms and one of each is for a child she can't remember she can't remember but. She can think enough to write things down, to check on her neighbours and get them to eat. ...No one can stay here. She remembers Vauguard so it must be safe, and... There's a boat, in the warehouse, she and others can take. She and the friendly boulanger she can't remember he's her friend but she can't remember know how to rig and sail it and they're more coherent than most everyone else so... If they head there, maybe things will be fine? She's always liked Vauguard and the Change religion, always thought about changing herself a little even if he likes her as she is She can't read that last line and Changing would be nice, she thinks. ...though, if the family she must have are looking for her, she'll need to keep some things the same. Darkless kinky hair is unusual isn't it? Especially with the darker skin she inherited from her Vauguardian mother so she'll keep those, but... Oh what if she makes herself really stand out in other ways? Then. Then maybe they'll notice and be drawn to her even if they can't remember any better than she does! She lists the things she does remember about herself once more, where she plans to lead everyone (Dormont is a nice place. The quiet slow pace there might help the others adjust), all the supplies she plans on taking (a porcaline doll. Her 's favorite. Hugs it constantly even though it feels awful), a few complaints about people who absolutely refuse to leave even though they're every bit as mindblanked as the rest of them and leaves an end note inviting anyone who reads this account to please enjoy their rest in her home but to please, please please not damage anything because- Someone else might not want it damaged and. She can't remember, can't handle even entering some of these rooms it hurts too much but. Please. She wants everything here to remain where it is, until the people who belong here can return.

...

So um. Yeah.

Big group hug and tears are had but Sif being Sif tries to push on quicker than they should, group reluctantly accept that he might just need some time to process and with Sif's blanket permission ("It's my family house. You're my family, so you can go wherever you want") most split into smaller groups inspecting all the rooms and things, with Odile and Isa checking out Sif's dad's study, Bonnie immediately poking their nose into Sif's childhood room dragging Sif along to tell them all about everything in there (Sif is having like all the nostalgia, heart ache and 'genuinely wanting to show Bonnie all the cool things, oh! The toy aeroplane that actually flies =D' moods right now), and Nille and Mira giving the more rummaged areas a quick look over since well. Good odds they may be here a while and knowing where stuff is might be handy.

During this period thinking Mirabelle should have something of a mild freakout for many reasons over the thought that Euphrasie -her mother/mentor figure- could possibly be Siffrin's mindwhammied birth mother because Dormont was mentioned, and the Head Housemaiden never really talks about her past and she knew of Wish Craft, and has that genuinely really rare darkless kinky hair and the hand writing on the note seemed familiar and aaaaaaa!!!! Cue giving Nille a scene of trying to help calm Mira down' mostly by pointing out there's no way they could possibly know the truth right now, pointing out that post the return of colours they can't really be sure what 'darkless' they're even talking about here, and Sif still flinches whenever Euphrasie is mentioned due to how much he associates her with the loops so if they ARE related... It's probably going to be a good long while before they can even consider reconnecting anyway so Mira has plenty of time to sort through her feelings on this, talk to the related parties to confirm if her suspicions have anything to them, and Euphrasie would probably need even more time to process it all than Sif and Mira will put together (good odds she'd currently be going through a massive breakdown/freakout back in Dormont over realising she has a kid she has no idea the identity, well being or anything of).

Mostly out of direct 'scene to scene' stuff at this point but thinking the group end up spending the night in the Observatory, which is MASSIVE and Siffrin sort of manages to awkwardly get across that observatories not directly used for study are always like that because they're basically public churches for Islanders since viewing the guiding light of the stars with others is a holy/community kinda thing but... Also Sif's family on their Dad's side have owned this observatory/the 'star viewing area' on these cliffs for generations and it IS totally normal to spend every other night stargazing with random strangers and to be given near constant lessons on stars and proper behaviour by your Dad so all the other families know you're being properly pious and- Cue everyone being like: 'hey Sif, I think your family might've be a little less 'humble coastal folk' and more 'stupid rich' than you might've realised from the perspective of being a 13 year old, also the notes and diaries in your Dad's study scream political work and someone who arranges a lot of religious stuff' and Siffrin trying to wrap their brain around essentially being the Island's version of Mira but with like, a lot of money on top of that.

Other:

They 100% find the body of someone who killed themselves recently when looking around... Somewhere. (too many days ago for them to have possibly stopped this person but definite confirmation that survivors of the Island might've been hit hard by suddenly remembering and having no support)

Probably meet Undine on the rail system while looking for pockets of survivors still on the island - Undine is doing the same on behalf of the monsters trying to set up a new government so um. Yay happy first contact?

Once Sif's group has met up with the Undertale characters there' definitely gonna be some Sif and Frisk friendship stuff, though probably not before Frisk and Bonnie (and MK?) friendship causes mild craziness.

(...Must have Sif, Isa, Toriel and Sans pun off. I can't write for beans but I MUST! For the PUNS!!!!)

Scene where Siffrin learns the Elder guy who's been looking after all the kids in the Village by Mt Ebott (main area the monsters have set up shop so it'll probably be renamed by Asgore 'Home Town' soon), is their grandfather on their mother's side and a bit of family history. - namely that Sif's mother was half Vauguardian (grandma was sickly and died before Sif was even born), that travelling to other countries and marrying 'outside the island' was seen as something very odd (slight xenophobic attitudes to outsiders?) back in Grampa's day, and a lot of little tidbits about Sif's parents like how his mom loved fishheads so so much, it was Sif's dad who cooked amazing Malanga Fritters with green peppers, the two of them had something of a whirlwind romance bonding over making enchanted things together (dad better at ritual work while mom could just boom! Make things off the cuff without thinking too hard about it) and... yeah. Just... Sif finding one living relative who never, ever expected to see any of his relatives again to boot (also Elder immediately being all 'introduce me to your family- Ah so just like your mother you favor big handsome men! Oh and your little one Bonnie is precious!' the second he gets over the weepy 'I cannot believe it' awkwardness because dang it, Sif deserves to find some additional family on this otherwise incredibly heavy trip)

The exploration into the space warped and Sadness filled Island Capital eventially leads to a lot of weird/heavy revelations about the Island for Sif:

Sif on his dad's side is basically the heir to one of THE big families of the Island (they don't like royalty but the Asterion and Chara families were arguably that in all but name).

His dad was very concerned about the heir of Chara because they were never really seen in public despite the Chara family living in/basically owning the Capital.

There was a genuine fear of the Monsters returning and waging war for the sins committed against their ancestors and a union between the Asterion and Chara families was seen by many as 'Universe ordained' protection against this (Cue Sif having a lot of 'trying not to wonder if my country practiced arranged marriage' squick and really appreciating their parents' choice to keep them well away from the Capital/the really religious types here...)

The Chara family was apparently in charge of protecting and aiding any Monsters found outside Mt Ebott (of which there were actually quite a few!) but according to the official paperwork all of them requested to join the rest of the Monsters under Mt Ebott? (All monsters helping the party point blank state that no one, monster or human, entered the Underground from the Surface before Chara fell)

...Notes on how Monster dust is raw Wish Craft in physical form in the Chara house...

Notes in the Chara house on how the Chara heir wasn't particularly liked, to the point they weren't being given a personal name until they did something to earn it.

Horror lab eventually found in the Chara house. Lots of dusty cages, notes on how people injected with monster dust react to it, etc.

Chara's room. Bare and empty aside from a few potted golden flower plants, a few letters and pictures stuck up on the wall (cue Sif doing a double take recognising their childhood name on some of them -Chara was that penpal of theirs that never responded?), and a few loose floor boards which underneath have scribbled escape plans, very expired food rations, carefully drawn and folded pictures of non human figures crying in cages, and bandages.

--- And... yeah. That last part is very much the 'Chara plotline' stuff kicking in hard but trying to think of little puzzle pieces for Sif and Co to find and slowly piece together into a big old ball of 'Wow, I DO understand why this otherwise very nice and did not deserve this country got accidentally ERASED by this kid actually' hints so um yeah.

Hope you like all the world building/stuff before it gets all 'period horror/drama' at the end there and do feel free to use any of this/give feedback as well. I've spent too long typing this out, my brain is pudding and I'm done on this thinky think train for now XD

Antonio...thimking

GIANT SIRENNNNN YEAHHH

No but it's Antonio and Alma <333 never realized, but Giant Siren is one of the aus that aren't Mirabel centered. Very Antonio-centric 🤭🤭 like how Mama Isa is Isabela-centric and Protective is Alma-centric 🌚

ANYWAYYYYY YEAH HERE'S SOME STUFF <333

Lea get it

-----

Antonio sat in the same cave. He rested his chin on his knees, sniffling, her fins drooping. He had stopped crying, though his eyes were still puffy from crying earlier.

He didn't mean to freak out like that. It was an accident. He just couldn't help it though. He didn't...want to. No guppy ever did. But it wasn't always in his control. And he hated himself for it.

"Antonio?" Antonio's eyes shifted and he turned to see his abuela's large form swimming to him. She settled next to him, her face softened from what it was earlier. Antonio didn't dare meet her eyes.

"I didn't mean to," Antonio mumbled in his arms, sniffling. "I was just hungry."

Alma smiled gently, scooping up Antonio into her palm. He still didn't meet her eyes. "Antonio, I know that. It wasn't your fault, and you weren't the only one."

Antonio's eyes watered and he whimpered softly. "But...But I hurt someone. And I messed up a shop."

Alma was sympathetic towards Antonio. While yes, she wouldn't deny that was disappointed by his lack of control, she knew it wasn't all his fault. He was quite literally only a guppy of a siren. She knew they couldn't control their appetite, let alone their behavior when they got too hungry. "Antonio, you shouldn't blame yourself."

"But-"

"No buts. I'm not upset. It was an accident, accidents happen," Alma said, and Antonio curled closer to her, humming softly.

"I'm sorry," Antonio said again, this time quietly. Alma sighed softly.

"As I said, you didn't mean it hijo. You're just a guppy, and...I know what it's like," Alma said softly and Antonio paused before looking up at her.

"Really?" He asked and Alma chuckled, nodding. "You were guppy too?"

Alma nodded again. "That's how all of us start when we're born. Small, hungry guppies," Alma said, tickling Antonio, eliciting giggles from the boy. "Nobody's perfect, especially us sirens. And especially not when we're guppies. There's always going to be a few times where you can't control you're hunger. But you don't need to beat yourself up for it. Do you understand?"

Antonio nodded. "So...you're not mad?" He asked again, and Alma shook her head. "Is Mamá and Papá still mad?" Antonio asked, his shoulder scrunching up.

"No, mi pequeño guppy," Alma said as she began to move back to the cave where the family resided. "They understand too. They weren't even mad before, they were just...startled. Needed to process it."

"So I'm not in trouble?" Antonio asked. Just to be sure.

Alma chuckled. "No. You're not. Now let's go back to the cave, hm?" Antonio nodded, leaning against Alma's palm as she swam back to the cave.

-----

I LOVE WRITING GOOD ABUELA ALMA <333

It's so fun. ANYWAYYYY this is a minor incident compared to others that have happened. Which are way worse and more mass rather than contained to a small group. But that's why the guppy feeding rule was enforced 🤭

MORE SAILOR MOON SOON <333 ψ(｀∇´)ψ

[julietas-rolling-pin]

I have to ask because I'm really curious, what do you think about the whole 'Villain Bruno' thing? I know that people have a lot of different opinions about it, from "Don't mess with Bruno!" all the way to "This is super interesting and my life fuel." There are a few different versions, too, from the full out villain/cursed thing to the misguided cinnamon roll and everything in between. I personally think much of the art and stories are very interesting. What are your thoughts on the concept?

Hmm I do think villain AUs pretty interesting and they can be really cool!! Personally I just can't see Bruno as anything but a sweet awkward cinnamon roll. And most of the fics I've seen make Bruno evil by glorifying him and bashing the rest of the family (same with villain Mirabel) and I'm just personally not invested in that. Plus I'm just really not interested in Bruno-centric stuff in general.

What I do think is pretty cool to see, esp in art, is "villain" or "evil" Madrigals in general but as a unit. Like evil triplets or smth like that because the aesthetic is ✨✨👌

#ask #bruno

[casitafallz]

I write a lot of AUs, not all I can list here but i'm curious to know which is your favorite AU to read.

Since you complimented my work privately, I want to compliment your work publicly! I love the way you wrote protective!Camilo towards Dolores in C&C, because even though she’s older than him it’s still better than the way the rest of the fandom writes about it. Because he actually cares about not hurting her feelings and has a good reason to protect her because he thinks Mariano is genuinely leading her on, rather than “my sister can’t have a boyfriend because I say so somehow!” So it doesn’t feel like reducing women to property whose sexualities are gatekept by men, especially because Camilo respects women to hell and back which I find really sweet. 🥰 Although I still found it funny how he said he was working out just so he could land a punch on Mariano lol. I also love how he isn’t ashamed of his feminine side. Second of all I love the way you wrote Dolores and all of the Afrolatina characters in general, especially Cristal and Carla, they are all so cute and I love their personalities and how outspoken and fun they are, it makes me want to hang out with them, and I think the chapter where Isabela confessed to Cristal is my favorite, for obvious reasons. And I love the friendship Mirabel has with Fuega(Dolores’ sister!) as well and I’d love to see more of it. I think I like it even better than the Mirabel and Camilo headcanon that is more common in the fandom. And I can just imagine Dolores’ wedding dress being just so ethereal and beautiful and outdoing the princesses at Disney parks. I’m sorry but those fluffy fairytale-like chapters were just so cute, especially when they played dress up as kids, even Camilo! And I love that you incorporated Thr Princess and the Frog in the fox’s canon, of all the Disney Princess movies, it had to be that one and I’m glad! 👸🏿 Anyway this is getting too long so I’ll stop here and if I come up with anything else I’ll let you know, I’m just really in love with your fic I’m sorry! 🙈 Have a nice day, friend!

Aaaaa! Thank you for this, luv 😩🤎 I’m glad you enjoy these elements and thank you for reading!!!!

And everyone be sure to give my friend’s Dolores-centric fic “And I Hear You” a read too 😁

Hanahaki AU anon here (not that I ever left). I'm still working on the outline (Act 1-2 is basically done aside from undecided details/timeline), but I found your tweet concerning homophobic Alma, and— well, that level of full-on rampant homophobia really needs its own dedicated fic (which I’d happily read), but I’ve been thinking of including "lowkey homophobe" Alma; you know, accepting-until-it's-*her*-family-doing-the-gay, “Are you sure it’s not just a phase?”, that kind of thing. (1/3)

Young Isa would’ve confessed her babygay feelings to her Abuela, having every reason to expect her support, but gets blindsided by her disapproval instead. There’s no “she’s a danger to her sisters and cousin” element (because she’d have had hanahaki for yeeears if so), but she does get gaslit and pressured back into the closet. It may be Isa alone who gets that treatment, too— the other grandchildren can have their “quirks”, but Alma’s “perfect Isabela” isn’t allowed to be a lesbian. (2/3)

That said, I’m kinda groaning at putting that much focus on Isa’s relationship with Alma because that’s going to create certain expectations, and that’s super intimidating. Like, on one hand, that relationship is canonically a huge influence on her and would be an obvious absence in any long multichapter Isabela-centric fic, but on the other hand, trying to extract a happy ending for Isamira out of the clutches of pre-movie Alma? In these circumstances? Hoo-boy. Save me from myself :( (3/3)

Ahh lowkey homophobic Alma who quietly hopes it’s all just a phase 😭😭 bro poor Isabela I wanna hug her sm she thought she was safe opening up to an adult she trusts only to be betrayed and shamed and punished for it ;-; and yess ahh all the other grandkids being allowed to have some imperfections but not Isa. Dolores gets to be a bit weird and quirky and *checks notes* stalk people she’s attracted to like a creep? Nice. Camilo gets to be a little shit and play pranks on people. Antonio gets to be quiet and shy, Luisa gets to get her hands dirty when she needs to, Mirabel… well, no one was expecting anything from Mirabel anyway, but Isabela? No no, she has expectations to meet 😊 And yesss ahh it’s kinda impossible to erase Alma’s presence from any fic focusing on Isabela in any level because Alma is a huuuuuuge influence, so even if there’s some unnamed unaddressed scar or shadow haunting her, you still know who gave it to her. And indeed it’d be hard if you don’t want to copy and paste Alma’s arc onto your fic, and I mean, I assume you’d either want her to reach that place on a different way or not have her reach that place at all, at least yet. Mmmm. Indeed a difficult work. In my role swap AU, I was kinda faced with the same question and in the end I kinda realized that… the best conclusion for the story was to literally kill her off TT_TT nothing personal! It simply fit better with the themes of the story, the idea that you can’t always “change” your family for the better and the best thing you can do is move on and live your life without letting them hold you back, sooooo Isabela only comes back home after her death etc etc etc. Uhhhhh yeah anon good luck 😭😭😭 uhh try to see what works best for your story and what conclusion you want Alma to eventually reach, and then work backwards from there ;-; writing hard

Not on the list, but have you found any new Mirabel centric fics that you enjoy? Angst or fluff depending. Or do you not read many fics?

I...am really bad at these XD It's not like I don't want to read any fics, and I know there are so many fics that are amazing and I haven't gotten to it but most of my free time, if not all, its dedicated to writing. To be honest, it hasn't been a normal year for me, I used to read fics all the time! But now, because I'm limited to free time, it's used for the sake of trying to do my WIPS and staying motivated with ideas correlating to them :)

#ask game #tho it may take me a few weeks i do my hardest to read as much as i can #there are so many fics that i have on the waiting list to read but i just need-to- find-time- to sit my ass down and just R E A D

[sokkas-first-fangirl]

Here’s the big question: after Change The Fates’ Design, should I move onto a Frozen AU, Atlantis AU or a Hunger Games AU? 🤔

#decisions decisions #if i go for frozen it'll be madrigal triplets centric #c'mon you know me #if i go for hunger games it'll be bruno centric and then mirabel centric later #and for atlantis it would also be triplets centric #i love them your honour #encanto #writing plans #fanfiction #rambling #indulge my bullshit #bruno madrigal #julieta madrigal #pepa madrigal #mirabel madrigal

[shessolovely-ao3]

[jokingmaiden]

encanto theories (spoilers)

okay i have two (2) theories, one which i thought of on my own and one which i saw someone briefly comment and i filled out in my head

theory one: mirabelle’s gift is a connection with the house/magic

-when she goes to open her door, the gold dissipates into the walls of the house

-from what we see, she’s the only one who holds full conversations with the house

-her emotional state actively affects the state of the house

-it reaches out to her, and her alone, for help

-her presence and advice actively affects the way isabella and louisa’s magic work (louisa is told to take a break and her magic weakens, isabella finally lets herself make new flora after mirabelle confronts her abt her “perfect” life)

-magic clearly connects to each character’s personality, and her wanting to “make her family proud” might have resulted in her gift being family-centric instead of personality based (or, since she wouldn’t focus on herself, she didn’t get one, but the first idea is significantly less depressing)

-abuela, during the scene where she’s talking to the candle, basically admits she knows mirabelle wasn’t lying and knows something. this indicates some hidden information about mirabelle’s relationship with the magic

-when she opens the door in the end, she brings the house back to life, reiterating the idea of the house being her “room”

theory two: the family’s relationship is what keeps the magic alive

-when the family ostracized bruno, it led to mirabelle not having a gift bc of the estrangement of the family bond

-the only reason antonio got a gift is because mirabelle showed him her love when it was his turn. when he said “i need you,” he wasn’t kidding

-isabella and mirabelle directly displaying their affection in front of the candle strengthened it

-the house first starts cracking when mirabelle feels a disconnect from her family

-louisa only becomes weaker when she realizes she’s neglecting herself for her family, and keeps doing it out of obligation

-when mirabelle discusses how abuela is ruining the family, the house finally falls apart

-only when they build the house again as a family and a community (everyone included this time, bruno back in the mix) with their own hands does the magic come back full force

#or maybe i’m just overanalyzing #also people have the caucacity to give abuela shit and nobody else? #and as a hardcore bruno kinnie #please stop infantalizing him for his neurodivergent traits #and as a mirabelle kinnie #i love her. so much #also please stop shipping them they’re family members???? hello???????? yuck #i mean i can’t stop you but eugh #oh also if you’re an adult? camillo is too young for you #try again #encanto #encanto theory #bruno madrigal #mirabelle madrigal #casita madrigal

Missilestorm's Encanto Fic Rec List

Updated 6/3/2022

Alrighty, I thought I'd join the fray here - This shall no doubt grow as I find more lovely stories. Sorted by pairings - I tend to skew more toward angst and hurt/comfort centered around Bruno and Mirabel platonic feels, but I've been writing so much of it lately that fluff and other stuff has become a necessary part of the reading routine, so there's probably a little something for everyone in here. I'll update this periodically as I find more wonderful fics and will rotate things in and out on occasion.

Bruno/OC (or Reader) (or both if you're ClicheJoe):

Candlelight by ClicheJoe (Mature) | Tumblr: ClicheJoe

Holy crap this is good. The biggest driver here is that Reme, the Reader/OC, is really easy to fall in love with. Reme makes mistakes, falls on her face (literally) a lot, and is hilarious. This fic has me grasping at straws for any little info about the OC's backstory, which with the incredible casting of Encanto already, is such a feat. Seriously, go read this - it's got plot, and humor, and romance, and marshes, and it's fantastic. Go follow @clichejoe on tumblr too and suffer through her veiled plot related reposts with the rest of us.

Heart Attack Love by RosellaC (Explicit) | Tumblr: @rosellacwrites Professor Bruno/Reader AU; Friends, this is very smutty, and it's really well done, and now I've gone and gotten invested in the plot. There's some fantastic imagery in this one. If it's your thing, go read it, shoo.

Seasons Series by o3ak (Explicit) | Tumblr: @o3ak

Once again, more wineglass top tier god level smut, and then feels come in and you kinda want to start crying! If that isn't an endorsement I don't know what is.

your words unspoken by Applesap (Explicit) | Tumblr: @applesap-fics

Bruno comes out, and reactions and explorations ensue. I love the family in this fic - their reactions, support, and conversations are great. I enjoy Bruno wanting to go out and explore. It’s also got angst and makes me feel feelings - I'm excited to see where it goes!

Bruno & Mirabel Centric Fanfics:

Artificial Shortages by sitting_all_alone (Teen) | Tumblr: @selcaby

This de-Disney’s Bruno’s time in the walls, and it’s just heartbreaking. This is really well written and makes me feel all the feelings. Great angst and really lovely moments.

house of cards by therealgift (Teen)

Mirabel gets trapped in the rubble of Casita, and Bruno is injured and tries to help her out. Oh MAN, does this have some fantastic angst moments already. I’m clinging to the “angst with a happy ending” tag like a life raft. ;_;

See me; hear me by therealgift (General)

Bruno gets to Mirabel before Alma does, and some really sweet interactions ensue. Excellent one-shot!

I'm Fine (I'm Not) by Breanna (Teen) | Tumblr: @breannaaiedail

A lovely series of one-shot sickfics featuring Bruno and Mirabel! This is rainy day cozy hot chocolate worthy h/c, and it's got some angst to balance out the saccharine.

The Distance Between Us Series by Breanna (General) | Tumblr: @breannaaiedail

This is my multi-week cleanse at the moment. The first in the series one-shots that follows Mirabel and Bruno's relationship pre-gift ceremony, and the second picks up with them after Casita falls. I love how Bruno's degrading mental health is handled too - it's subtle enough to still be fluff galore, but it's there, and it drives you to want to keep reading, see how their relationship develops, and watch him make promises he can't keep (wah).

the future looks like this by bumblezone (General)

A lovely little one shot between Mirabel and Bruno - the characterizations are great. It focuses in on a conversation they have after Casita is rebuilt. I'm a sucker for any fanfic recognizing the parallels between Mirabel and Bruno, and this hits that mark.

Bruno From Before by UsedToBeGuest123 (General) | Tumblr: @usedtobeguest123

This fic centers around the side effects of Bruno's gift, and Mirabel and Bruno's relationship post Casita. I really like how this fic handles a lot of stuff. Bruno characterization is really neat, and Mirabel's struggle with self blame is really well done too.

Not the Intended Reunion by sleepygirl0305 (Teen)

I really enjoyed the flow of this fic. Mirabel leaves with Bruno after Casita falls, and ten years later, Antonio discovers that they have been living in a nearby town all along. I love the way this fic handles Mirabel's mental struggle.

Nos Sigue la Noche by Thornvale (Teen) | Tumblr: @thornvale

This fic is one of the best suspense-building fics I've read in this genre. It will hook you and make you keep reading. Accept that you'll be drowsy at work the next morning. Just - wow. I love the characterization, and the buildup, and just everything. Wonderfully done.

A Lie More Comfortable Than Truth (Teen) by Queen_mab | Tumblr: @themadqueenmab

Wow. This fic is just brilliant. I love Mirabel's characterization in this and the bond her and Bruno have formed. Bruno's chronic worry and protectiveness and the way it's manifested is just A tier in this and I've gone back multiple times to read certain chapters just because of the way the character interactions are written. Really wonderful stuff.

Murder, Magic, & Mugs by aetherspell(aether_december) | Tumblr: @aetherdecember

This is a very fun modern fantasy AU. Bruno suffers, Mirabel is sweet, and Camilo’s a little shit. The angst in this is great, and I love how characters from different media have been woven into the world. It’s a really fun compelling read.

Mirabel Centric Fics:

Sympathy Pain by DecemberMe (General) | Tumblr: @hectic-hector

This is a cute little oneshot about periods and Bruno having grown up in a house full of women and what that means for his knowledge of the matter. Very sweet, and the art to go with it is great!

Bruno Centric Fics:

Open Your Eyes (and see that you’re home) by ImpossibleFangirl0632 (Teen) | @impossiblefangirl0632

Bruno is separated from the family at the river as a child, and proceeds to have a very not fun time. There’s a very sweet daughter OC in this that I’ve really enjoyed, and the angry Bruno moments are great.

Alma Centric Fics:

Dame tu Manito by DancingMantis (Teen) (Alma & Bruno)

This fic follows Alma and Bruno's relationship in a 5 times, 1 time format. It's ongoing, but the imagery in this fanfiction is just fantastic - the descriptions are phenomenal.

A Third Chance by Starfangs_Secrets (Teen) | @starfangssecrets

Alma is taken back in time and tries not to repeat her mistakes. I’m still working through this fic, and I really like it! The OCs are great, Alma’s regret and reactions are heartbreaking, and there’s some interesting and thought provoking details added to Bruno’s gift.

Camilo & Bruno Centric Fics:

Mortifying by between (Teen)

Camilo needs more food to function, but hasn't really communicated this well with his family. Angst ensues - I love this fic, and I love the interactions between Camilo and Bruno. Super good read!

The Stars Don't Shine, They Burn by CakeBeDamned (General)

No one actually sits Camilo down and explains what happened when Casita fell, and h/c ensues. I love the takes on Camilo’s gift and how it’s tied to his emotion, and I really enjoyed the characterization choices with Bruno!

Missilestorm's Encanto Fanfics

Here are my Encanto Fanfics! :)

Tremors, Bruno Madrigal & Mirabel Madrigal (Teen)

The night Casita returns, Mirabel discovers she has a gift that causes cracks to form and decides that it's best if no one knows about it.

Naensut's Tremors Fanart

Old Habits Die Hard, Bruno Madrigal & Mirabel Madrigal (Mature) | TW Rape and Underage

Mirabel is assaulted by a townsperson shortly after Casita falls; deals with the aftermath of that assault with Bruno as her main support, and how the event curls together with family trauma.

Hectic-Hector's Old Habits Hug Fanart

Hectic-Hector's Old Habits Courtroom Fanart

Kintsugi (Teen), Camilo Madrigal & Bruno Madrigal (General)

After Casita is restored, Camilo still tends to put a lot before himself. Everyone’s too busy to notice.
