Protect his smile.

Accurate, way too accurate

My girls

“Aye I’m just a little guy!! You wouldn’t punch a little guy, would ya?? It’s also my birthday, you wouldn’t punch the birthday boy, aye????” Type vibes

Every day I'm growing sicker of the "madrigalcest is ok bc Bruno ships it in his rat telenovela" discourse

You illiterates

You uncultured cockroaches

As the yellow butterflies, it was a direct reference to the universally recognised, 1982 Literature Nobel winner novel written by Gabriel García Márquez, Cien Años de Soledad/One Hundred Years of Solitude, and it was an allude to the incestuous relationship between Aureliano Babilonia and his aunt Amaranta Úrsula (neither knew of their family ties) producing a pigtailed child who killed her mother as she birthed him and was later devoured by ants, thus putting an end to the Buendía bloodline and sentencing Macondo to its self-destruction, fulfilling Melquiades prophecy.

READ, YOU STUPID BITCHES

According to my daily scrolling, unless it's a y/n or reader insert, there isn't soulmates related content on the Encanto fanbase yet. Unaceptable!

*sighs*

Guess I'll have to do it myself

Introducing to y'all:

Matchmaker! AU

In this alternate reality, Mirabel's gift is not only seeing the Thread Of Fate™, but cut and sew it as she sees fit

As a personal HC, there are three variations of the thread

-White, if the person's not old enough to think about romance/isn't interested on it

-Red, the typical

-Black, if one of the soulmates dies

She quickly starts competing with Isabela for the Abuela's Favourite Grandchild title

Same goes for townspeople, as she officiates marriages and relationships

Of course, it's not always happy rainbows, as some couples are simply not meant to be

"Mirabel, please tell me that milady and I are made for each other! My princess-"

"Adrián, I already told you 528628627 times that Marina's not interested, grow the fuck up"

"But you could change our destiny for love, you selfish bi-

*Luisa's knuckles crack in the distance*

For the nature of her gift, she's compared to that person we don't talk about

According to señora Pezmuerto, she's somehow singlehandedly guilty of all affairs, divorces and breakups

Nevertheless, it's a good life as Encanto's Matchmaker

Then, everything changed when the fire nation attacked both families deemed fit to marry Mariano with Isabela

What a beautiful couple!

Too bad his string is the same as Dolores and Isabela's is white

And the candle flickered during Antonio's ceremony. Like the Thread, she's the only one who can actually see the cracks in Casita

Yeah...yikes

(A possible sequel could be that, out of respect, she has never looked at Abuela's pinky. But once the Madrigals have rebuilt Casita she sees it on accident...and it's red)

(I'm a sucker for the Pedro Lives AU okay?!)

Feel free to add more ideas!

I CANT BELIEVE THAT THE #ShutUpGringo2022 IS NOT TENDENCY HERE.

But at the same time im not surprised since this is a mostly gringo social media

SO HERES MY APPORT

First of all: Context.

Well, we all know the movie Encanto, I, personally, didn't see it but I know enough to love it, it does represent Colombian and Latino culture as well. Even in the smallest details yk. That why a lot of latinos are very happy with this movie, bc, you see, when the only representation you get is ridiculized parts of something as important as your culture, a movie like encanto is... Well, a charm.

You see, Latinoamérica is a big ass continent, with lot of history and culture. We have every bit of variety. Latam is builded in what a lot of natives created. A lot of countries respet and hold their cultures onto their natives. Even the ones where they are repressed, and trashed, their presence still strong, our roots and traditions will always go back to them. Then we have the African presence, Latam was the most big port of Enslaved Africans of the world, African culture has its presence on its own too. (Brasil is the country with most police brutality against black people on the world. But none of you will ever know that bc nobody cares about a third world country) European culture too, because of a lot of immigration, as well as Asian culture.

And YES a lot of us come from the pain of our ancestors. From the rape of colonizers, from the pain of immigration and starvation and shame, from the genocides and death.

But we carry that with us. With pride, bc we're here because of their strength. Latam is such a varied place, thanks to all of them. We have a bit of everywhere. And that's something to be PROUD.

We all are from different colours, we all have different traits, different ways of manifesting our beliefs, and tbh. Nobody could give more of a shit of that than us.

Ooh but there's somebody. And that's all the assholes who think they can talk for us. Offend themselves for us.

Listen: We do not care if someone drew a character of Encanto a light more white than it is. All our countries are headed to ruin WHY WE WOULD CARE.

Is not such a problem to us, so WHY do yall get offended anyways??

Yall not only want to apropiate our culture and traditions but our problems too?

And then get MAD bc we tell you to shut up?????

Look. Encanto is OURS. It represents our shared pain, our generational trauma and also the comfort of our family and home. Yall dont get to decide whether you hate a character or not, because yall don't understand that character like we do.

We cannot have NOTHING i swear. Bc you made a problem of it.

And its not the first time either.

Yall canceled a mexican rat bc it didn't fulfill your own image of a Mexican. While mexican little kids where DELIGHTED to see a part of themselves on tv.

I mean. Yeah, a lot of those characters are based on the most "prominents" aspects of our culture. That doesn't mean its bad???

In the Latinoamerican Spanish version of Sing there's an Argentinian rat. Who is greedy, annoying and sings Tango. AND I LOVE IT. And i know I'm not the only one bc... WHEN do I see anything that represents Argentina that doesn't have to do with our horrible economic crisis? And its A RAT WHO SINGS TANGO AND PLAY THE SAXOPHONE. UN TIPAZO.

What I want to say with this is; Yall dont get to say a WORD about us. You live in a first world country. With a privilege you can't deny even if you wanted.

Istg yall have this problem where you can't get your noses off of other minorities bussines.

And the worst of this is that you get to be the victim??

And calls us racist bc we discriminate your PRIVILEGE

Quick history lesson:

When USA was in war against Mexico, the soldiers, who wore green, used to be everywhere, and some Mexicans used to tell them to get out, on a hardly pronounced english "Green, go" Which derivated to "Gringo"

Gringo is not a Slur.

Is our way to kick you all out. Yeah, some people use the term affectionately, while others used it as a way to rechaze the term "american" As if having it on your country name where enough reason to call yourself after a whole continent. And take us with you when others continents mock you.

Gringo can't be a slur. Gringo is part of our history, is part of the damage yall have done to us. Endlessly.

Victimize yourself if you must. Forget all the shit your centric county has trow to all of us. But we wont forget.

Yall can hide on your social justice hashtags all you want. We know the kind of shit you are.

En fin

On a lighter note: Isn't beautiful and a bit funny the fact we are ALWAYS fighting for something; Territory, culture, food, war, inmigration, politics, traditions. That Arepa is Venezuelan, not colombia, that Messi is better than Pele, than Gardel is Paraguayan not Argentinian (mentira) that September is Chile's not mexico's, that Bolivia and its sea.

But we unite only to support each others on our emergencies and to fight Gringos. Is beautiful, really. Lets never change.

Latinos unidos jamás serán vencidos 🤝

Edit: I realize now that is very important to clear the Latinx Thing; This post is not abt it, some latinos dislike it while others don't, I don't really mind it, I guess the problem resides that is originated on USA, bc on Latam we have the "Latines" variation, but idk, I put the memes there bc they where the only ones I could find abt the whole situation xd

This is a new year, which comes with new projects. So, I want to share what I've been working on:

Rating: Not Rated

Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings

Relationships: Félix Madrigal/Pepa Madrigal, Agustín Madrigal/Julieta Madrigal, "Abuela" Alma Madrigal/Pedro Madrigal, Antonio Madrigal & Mirabel Madrigal, Isabela Madrigal & Mirabel Madrigal, Camilo Madrigal & Mirabel Madrigal, Camilo Madrigal/Original Male Character(s)

Characters: Agustín Madrigal, "Abuela" Alma Madrigal, Antonio Madrigal, Bruno Madrigal, Camilo Madrigal, Dolores Madrigal, Félix Madrigal, Isabela Madrigal, Julieta Madrigal, Luisa Madrigal, Mirabel Madrigal, Pepa Madrigal, Mariano Guzmán, Original Male Character(s)

Additional Tags: Original Character(s), Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Mirabel Madrigal Has a Gift, Sister-Sister Relationship, Unrequited Love, Possessive Behavior, Minor Violence, In this house we stan Alma Madrigal, lots of Spanish

Summary:

Casita comes to realise that when one tries to solve intergenerational trauma, the end does not justify the means; especially if those means revolve around a innocent 5 years old girl suffering a decade of slander & isolation for having no magic. Therefore, it's time to recycle a gift.

Many people on this new fandom have the audacity of demonizing Alma without even trying to look deeper into her story. Tell me, have any of you:

•Had your hometown burned to the ground and escaping within an inch of your life. Probably lost the rest of your family to the flames?

•Ran into the wild unknown for weeks while making sure your newborn triplets are all fed and healthy while constantly checking your surroundings and provisions, having little to no sleep?

•Had the love of your life stabbed to death in front of your eyes and being physically incapable of doing something, not only for the mere shock, but also to protect the lives of your children?

•Been saved by a miracle out of nowhere, and whoops! You, a newly widowed with 3 children, are now the chosen leader of a community of hundreds of terrified people?

•Had no option to give your beloved a proper funeral? Had no way to express your grief, pain or fear for the responsibility and image bestowed upon you can't allow any cracks? EVERY. SINGLE. THING. YOU. DO. is going to affect the people around you. You're the one that holds the magical candle. You have to be strong, for everyone, for the people, and for your offsprings

•Had no idea how to relate or help your magical 5yo, having no other guide but your gut instinct? Consider:

-One of your daughters can't feel negative emotions, otherwise someone will get struck by lightning. Better to teach her to repress feelings

-Your son seems to predict only bad things. Self-explanatory why people doesn't like him. Also, he strongly resembles your dead husband

-Your other daughter now has to wake up before the sun rises to make tons of healing food. There's no break, and you can't stop her from helping people. Why would the miracle give them gifts, if not for aid the community?

•Wrongly believe that your family's role in life, the only reason you were saved, was for helping others; and slowly accommodate and settle in that lifestyle. Silently burying your troubles behind a smile. Years start passing by, your daughters get married and you get grandchildren. The town gets bigger. Everyone has to work harder for things to go smooth

•Suddenly had one of your granddaughters turn up giftless. Why? What does this mean? The people are panicked, you're at lost of what to do. You can't move, just like that time many years ago. You ask your Brunito, the only sort of lead you have for an explanation, and he disappears, not even saying goodbye.

•Feel like you have to make up for it, like this is your mistake. You already lost your husband and son. You're not going to lose anyone else. You have to take control.

•No idea what to make of Mirabel. She made the candle flicker. Could she be a threat to the magic, to the family, to Encanto? It can't be, she's innocent, isn't she? But Luisa loses her gift. But the marriage proposal is ruined. But you finally get the explanation you asked ten years ago. But the cracks are appearing everywhere around Casita. But Isabella's plants invade town in middle of making amends with the Guzmán. But her perfect grandchild is a mess. Once again everything is chaos, and you're angry

No, you haven't, and it shows.

Does it justify the harsh treatment at Mirabel? No. Neither does it justify your attempts to dehumanise her.

Recently I've seen some posts with ideas for a Coco-Encanto crossover. It gave me inspiration for making one of my own:

After Un Poco Loco was released, it became a huge success (not as big as Remember Me, mind you) which left Ernesto and Héctor with quite the amount of money. While Ernesto went to buy a big mansion for himself, Héctor decided to save half of it and spent the rest in a simple wedding & honeymoon with Imelda. Where did they go? A Colombia tierra querida, por supuesto! Let's say they were given a tour of all thermal floors and one day when Imelda was buying gifts for her family, she met Alma. What's to happen between two newlywed women? A wholesome friendship, of course (low-key with Pedro's lyrics and Héctor's melodies Dos Orugitas may have come to life, but we're focusing on the wives here). When the honeymoon was over, they became pen-pals, exchanging recipes, chismecito and pregnancy tips, but suddenly...the letters stopped coming, and Héctor left.

I know this is where everything falls apart bc the triplets are 50 and Mama Coco is 108, but ignore that detail plz

Cut to El Día de Muertos 50 years later, Mamá Imelda asks 16 years old Miguel (he was 12 in 2017) to please find whatever happened with her old friend. When Miguel and little Coco (I actually can't find a reason for letting a minor travel travel to another with his 5yo baby sister, but why not) finally find Encanto, the town has no idea what to make of the newcomers. Can they let them in? Can they let them go and risk to be exposed? The answer will lie on the Madrigal family.

I'd like it to be a story of both personal growth and Miguel and Mirabel falling in love, but I'm not sure how to make it work.

Let me know what you think!

Feliz noche de velitas

Y DEJEN DE PRENDER PÓLVORA EN LA CALLE, CARAJO!

today is december 7th, and do you know what that means? today is the night of the candles here in Colombia, and do you know what that means? that I am getting drunk and eating a lot, but also that Alma and Pedro got in love on a night like this.

I am not crying, you are crying. 

Splendid

Isabelle as Isabela, you're welcome

So I saw this and thought:

💭 They kinda give me the same energy. Hmm 💭

Watched Encanto...it was so GOOD! Bruno was my favorite. Which reminds me, I saw and have seen so much content for this movie. And, have a few headcanons

_I don't think anyone has mentioned Delores's room. I feel like it has windchimes or built-in soundproofing so she can sleep.

_I at one point, imagined Bruno saying Anakin's lines about sand from Episode II

_But, I also feel like Bruno actually liked his room when he got his gift. Like, since the rooms reflect them and their gifts, Bruno actually liked the tower and giant sand floor because if he wants to be alone, it wouldn't be super hard for him to get through his own room. But, Pepa could make it rain, and they make sandcastles and have picnics with Julieta's cooking.

_Ooh, what if Pepa's room had the 4 seasons, simultaneously.

_Julieta's room is a mix between Tiana's Place and an infirmary.

Some simple art for Dolores and Bruno Madrigal I AM OBSESSED WITH THIS FILM (and bruno)

Burn it all 

Camilo madrigal x villain [NAME

The villagers were sobbing, begging for the Madrigals to save them. But you knew, you knew they wouldn’t come. You stood next to your father a numb look on your face. Your father looks at you telepathically telling you to shut them up! 

With a wave of your hand a circle of fire surrounded the villagers. “SHUT UP” you scream. Slowly they all began to quiet down. A cruel smile came on our father’s face. He simply said “Kneel”. When none kneel you grew fearful. You looked to your brother, eyes pleading him not to. 

But he could only give you a look of sympathy. “KNEEL” your brother screams, electricity sparking from his hands. On command everyone kneels. One young girl doesn’t move confused. With that she is struck down with lightning. Her burnt body laying outside the of the circle. You feel a few tears fall down your face as you let out a scream. The little girls mother is sobbing, and her father is glaring at you as you walk to her body. Stopping the fire you look at her burnt body, you feel sick to your core. 

She was just a little girl who was confused. You felt angry at your brother for killing her, did he even care what her name was. You knew her name, her name was Lavender. You just couldn’t hate him. He had no choice. You BOTH had no choice. This was your life, killing, lying, torturing, and more killing. You hate it, because there is no way out. Not even in death. Bending down to her body you place a kiss on her, this makes her body burn. Then turn to ash, a gust of wind carries the ashes away. You get up sending a sad look to your brother, that is the closest thing to a thank you for the wind he would get. 

Your brother has a guilty look on his face. He hates having to kill kids. Hearing rustling behind you turn to see the Madrigals. Isabella’s dress is bloody, and torn. Dolores is on her mother ears bleeding. Pepá has a cloud above her but is otherwise okay. Felix is bruised up, and Luisa is not even there. She was dead before Julieta could heal her. Julieta’s hand is bandage as it was cut off, and has cuts all over her. Mirabel is crying, blood soaking through the dress. Abuela is holding her candle that is almost out. You can’t even look at Antonio. His small form hiding behind Camilo. 

You couldn’t even meet his gaze. It hurt to much, you know what you did was messed up. You pretend to love him to get close to him. But you didn’t know you would fall for Camilo too. By the time you realize it was to late, the plan was set in motion. You tried to stop you father but he knew what you didn’t. Father knew about your powers, but Camilo didn’t. Your father would tell him if you backed out now. This was your job, being the manipulative bitch. But it still hurt. 

“Ahh I see some of you lived to try and save your little village” Your father spat. You and your brother share a sad look that the Madrigals see. A disappointed look comes over Alma’s face. “I will ask you once leave our home. Leave and have her let the villagers go” Alma yelled. A small chuckle came from your lips, she couldn’t, no wouldn’t say your name. I was kinda funny. Your laugh didn’t go unnoticed. 

“How could you! Why did you do this to us! We could have helped you! [NAME] TELL US      WHY!”Mirabel screamed. You just turned around and watched your flames. The way the fire crackled brought you a very small piece of calm. Then you thought about what Mirabel said. Everyone was still quiet, waiting for your response. You had done because it was all you had ever known. All you had ever done was hurt people. You didn’t now what love was, so when Camilo gave it to you, you got scared, but that’s not why you did it. You did it because it was your job, the only thing you had ever known.  

“When I was young I was scared of my everything. And I mean everything. Diego would laugh at how childish I was. One day he played a little prank on me. Do you want to know what he did” you whispered. 

Now concerned Isabella open her mouth but nothing came out. For some reason she understood. This is your way of making yourself feel better about what you had done. That’s why you wouldn’t face them. That’s why you looked at the ring of fire around the villagers. Fearfully Isabella asks “ What did Diego do? [NAME] what did your brothers prank do to you”. 

“He locked me in a shed. Behind the house we lived in. Diego had filled the shed with things I feared. Spiders, snakes, it was dark, and it was a small shed. I began I panic in the shed, crying out for my big brother to let me out. As I cried I let out a scream. Then in my hand was a orb of fire. And for the first time” you paused.

Now everyone was watching you play with your flames. The flames dance in your hand.  Slowly changing into animals. The fire looked beautiful, it looked like moving glass. 

“And for the first time I wasn’t afraid of something. I stoped screaming and watched the fire in my hand. I don’t remember how long I was in the shed, but my father found me eventually. Diego was punished for scaring me. And soon after Diego found out his power” I finished. 

“My father was always there for me, how could I tell him no. So if your father told you that you needed to kill a whole village to protect yourself, you would do it. Right? My whole life I was taught to kill, manipulate, hurt, and torture. It’s all we’ve ever known. This job was no different” you spoke. It was a lie, this job was different. Because you fell in love, you felt love for the first time. Camilo’s scream caught you off guard. 

“WHAT! What do you mean this job was no different. Was it all a lie? Was everything you ever told me a lie?” Camilo screamed, tears streaming down his face. Then, uncertainly, he whispered “Was our love a lie too?”

[NAME] paused. Did she love Camilo? Or was she just trying to make herself feel better? Was she trying to convince herself that she loved Camilo? Was this all just an act for her mission?

Camilo stared at her, all the hope in his eyes diminishing. In his head he loves her, ever if she killed his cousin. The time he shared with [NAME] were the only time he could be himself. With her family he had to be perfect, just like Isabella. Everyone had to be perfect. He wanted to be free with you. He needed her, he needed her to be happy. 

“I don’t know” was all you said. You didn’t now what you wanted. Your father loves you but it was tough love. Camilo’s love was different. It made you hands sweaty, your face flush red, and made you feel warm inside. Camilo’s face dropped a little, and your father was getting mad.

“If you don’t know then there must be something the- THERE IS NOTHING THERE [NAME] DOSENT LOVE YOU” your father finished for Camilo. I wanted to yell at your father for yelling at him. He had no right! Camilo just wanted to be loved by you. Right? You didn’t know. 

“[NAME] this is what we do. You and Diego are evil, and cruel. YOU CANNOT LOVE HIM, you can’t love. You’ve done this a million times, it’s not different from all the others. Ana mlark, James hever, Becca jones, you did this with all of them. CAMILO MADRIGAL is no different. You think you love them but you don’t, you just think you do” your father shrieked. He was right about them. About Ana about James about Becca, but not Camilo. 

“[NAME] don’t do it I love you”

……….

“[NAME] you don’t love him.”

………..

“[NAME]”

………. 

“Yes Diego”

“BURN IT ALL”

Looks like they didn't have biology in high school :/

I'm shocked, shocked to learn that so many gringos are legit confused about how Pepa can be white when her parents are brown, like they can't comprehend it and think adoption is the only possible option (adoption in the times of a civil war from last century,the only logical option of course/s).

It's obvious that both Alma and Pedro have at least one white parent/grandparent and Pepa was the only one who got the white trait in the genetic lottery

Did none of y'all learn about Mendel and his peas in school? What the fuck

If yall likes my NSFW Bruno fic, your gonna like this pure fluff and angst one. The only 18+ that's done in this one is a kiss, I still don't want minors reading it tho, as we do not support underage content on this page. ANYWAY

Here it is uwu also, take this mlm icon I made of Bruno, I know my gay men out there will love it.

AND to add a Lil spice to it, here's this one! As we love to headcanon our favs as being just like us uwu

Here's the fanfic I wrote, it's a Bruno x Male reader! It's 100% consensual fun time, so please check it out! I try to write for exclusively male/GN readers, as a Trans guy myself I feel like their isn't enough male readers or Trans man readers. Reader in this is portrayed to either be a cis guy or a fully transitioned man, either way you'd like to look at it! However, Pronouns aren't used so this could also be a NB amab reader!

Also take my Bruno pics dump, bc I love this man with all my heart.

Emotional talkative characters? Sounds like me🐸

I wanted to make art on full-length cartoon, which I usually don't do. This cute cartoon really sunk deep into my soul) ... and this boy, yes)
