"Okay...that's unusual," Julieta sighed, staring blankly at the spot where the portal had been. "Whisp, mija, are you okay?"

Julieta ran around the counter island and went to help Whisp up. She thrust an Arepa into Whisp's hand, muttering in Spanish. The counter tiles tapped a worried sounding rhythm.

"Guess you're stuck...," Isa grumbled. "For...whatever reason..."

"Is everyone okay?" Dolores squeaked, coming back to the kitchen. "I think I was the only one that heard that but..."

Gigi gave a worried look, hoping she didn’t offend the women when Whisp insulted the mother and apparent head of the household. She was always telling her younger twin that even though they hold higher authority, it didn’t give the princesses any right to belittle anyone!

Even IF the woman was scary…

The pink princess wanted to go after Pepa since Julieta pointed out the cloud as Whisp was thrusted with new clothes. The moon princess sighed and groaned in annoyance for this entire mess. She would make sure Gigi would talk to father about ALL of this later. She allowed her powers through shadow to come behind her and carry the clothes.

       ❝ That won’t be necessary. We appreciate the hospitality and everything you’ve done for us, but we should be heading home now. We’ve worried father enough thanks to SOMEBODY wandering off. ❞

Whisp then held out her palm, ignoring Gigi’s pleads of possibly saying goodbye to the others for helping them. Her eyes then turned black as she focused on making a portal to connect back to their home. The kitchen’s shadows began to move and swirl before forming a circle near Julieta…

It’s began to grow and grow… with a bit of light showing a large castle at the other side of it…

But then… something was wrong…

       ❝ Wh… what?… ❞

The familiar gold glow of the candle’s magic surrounded the portal and fought back against Whisp’s will before finally closing it, sending a small shockwave to knock the moon princess back against the wall!

       ❝ Whisp! ❞

I'm giggling over the fact that when Vil asked what's beautiful Jack really responded with cactus 🌵

I live him, I hope he never changes

Ooh, I remember that from Fairy Gala: What If! 😂 It’s a really cute moment!

I think it’s nice that Jack said cacti are beautiful to him! It just goes to show that buff, burly guys like Jack can have an appreciation for nature and not be afraid to express it. Sometimes Vil has a hard time seeing the value in less traditionally beautiful things (like cacti), so it’s nice that he has Jack’s perspective to reference.

Vil and Jack’s interaction actually reminds me a lot of the song What else can I do? from the film Encanto. The singer, Isabela, is able to magically produce beautiful flowers at will, and she is considered the golden child of her family—but for the first time, she has created “something unexpected, something sharp, something new”. Isabela remarks that, “It's not symmetrical or perfect, but it's beautiful and it's mine.” She is able to see the beauty in imperfect and untraditional things.

In TWST, Jack is someone who can appreciate the unconventional beauty of cacti, whereas Vil has a harder time understanding it. I guess that would make sense, seeing as Vil has been a child star for years and years 🤔 He’s probably just accustomed to conventional standards for beauty and was genuinely surprised by Jack’s point of view.

Question to Encanto and Isabela fans.

¿ Can someone name ALL the flowers and plants Isabela grows during the fulm, and by that i mean the ones from Perfect Isa uses to decorate from The Family Madrigal Antonio ceremony, Breakfats aftee hearing about Mariano wanting 5 babies, and before the proposal dinner during We dont talk about Bruno, What else can I do, and the ones she grows at the end when she gets her True Colors look? 💐🌸🏵🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷⚘🌴🌵

[thelittlefoxesknits]

🌷🌵ISABELA🕯✨ It’s not symmetrical or perfect, but it’s beautiful, and it’s mine! What else can I do? 🎶 I think we all know how much I love pastel pinks and purples so of course I loved Isabela’s dress in this movie, but I feel like her character is so much more inspiring when she finally realizes she doesn’t have to pretend and be happy or perfect all the time. All of the colorful flowers and plants that she creates during her song are so beautiful! I tried to get most of the colors into these skeins. 🌴 “You’re a Bad Influence” has layers of maroon, purples, blues, and chartreuse in the most fun way! — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/U3jAO9YJ4

Isabela Madrigal🌺🌵

[villainanders]

🌼🌵🌾 for calliope and 🌺☀️🌟 for daera!

Calliope!

🌼- What's your favorite thing about this oc?

Honestly from a RP perspective I like how terrible she is. Just a horrid girl. It is extremely fun when I have terminal Need People to Like Me Disease to play a character who WILL choose the mean options. But also on that note I also think it’s fun to figure out what the moments for her are where she will put other people above herself and what her relationships are where she really does want the other person’s approval even if she pretends not to care. I’d say a thing on the surface I like about her is her confidence but when it gets down to her specifics she’s actually very insecure about a lot of things. Which like, Mess! Would love to study her

🌵- How does this oc feel about physical affection?

It’s a mixed bag because Cal is a pretty sexual person so she would say she’s comfortable with physical affection but she’s actually not very comfortable at all with platonic affection unless it’s coming from select people (���… which now that I think about might ONLY include Bethany)

🌾- How does this oc get along with people they just met?

Lmao. It depends wildly on the person and what she thinks of them. If they make a good impression and they have similar values they’ll probably get a long swimmingly from the get go (her and Isabela) but if she doesn’t respect you she’s pretty straight up about it and it all just goes downhill from there

Daera!

🌺- Which family member(if any) is this oc closest to?

RIP to Miss Daera her entire family is dead. Hmm but before *gestures at Dwarf Noble Origin* happened I do think she had a good relationship with her father. It wasn’t the type of relationship where they were particularly emotionally open with each other but they did get along very well. I also think she had a relatively good relationship with Bhelen growing up — they weren’t close but they did genuinely like and respect each other

☀️- Does this oc make good or bad first impressions?

I think good! She’s a pretty fun and charismatic person and while she can be pretty hard headed it’s not the kind of thing that’s immediately shows itself unless you’re crossing her right away

🌟- Is this oc good at expressing themself through words or do they have to use other means?

If Daera has to articulate her emotions she will simply die instead. A lot of her best relationships are with people who can get her to finally say what’s on her mind but without pushing she’s a much more introspective person than a verbal one and prefers to try to deal with her emotions physically, whether that’s on the battlefield or anything else

Isabela Madrigal, More than a Pretty Face

Height: 5'4" Hair: Waist length black, usually worn down with the left side pinned back with a flower Eyes: Brown FC: Undecided July 28

Isabela is the oldest daughter of Julieta Madrigal, able to manipulate plants. Unfortunately, as the oldest grandchild with a Gift seemingly based purely on Aesthetics, it's often as if the entire future of the Madrigal family and the Encanto itself is riding on her, causing her to seem cold and distant.

[sorcerymuses]

Dolores kept trying to listen for distant signs of her cousin, but got a sharp reminder of the uncomfortable silence. She had no idea how everyone else was handling the change, but she'd gotten so used to the noise...all she could do now was keep her eyes peeled for Mirabel.

Her door had blinked out first when Casita fell, and she was glad for that. The sound of the cracking was like screaming. She didn't want to imagine what Casita crumbling would have sounded like with her Gift.

Pepa rested a hand on Gigi's shoulder.

"Thank you for your help, Mija," she said lightly.

Some people had wanted Isabela to stay behind and help her mother deal with injuries or some other safe task. But this was her little sister. She'd been so awful to her and just when they'd reconnected, this happened.

She felt guilty, even though she didn't have to, seeing Casita crumble the way it had. So quickly after she and Mirabel reconciled. She'd just been glad to see that Mirabel wasn't hurt. Now, she just wanted her back.

"You and me, both...," she mumbled.

Encanto Royals - For @sorcerymuses​

Afternoon settled into the Encanto, and everyone was still on their search for Mirabel Madrigal. Everyone was on the alert and looking around, ESPECIALLY the family Madrigals. The family who no longer had the magic of the candle NOR their own home, Casita.

The ones who pushed themselves the most were the visiting princesses. Gigi and Whisp, who were now exposed to the Encanto, were looking as well too using their own magic as much as they can. Still dressed in their Columbian outfits, they were on a mission to find their friend. The madrigals lost their powers, but the princesses didn’t.

Gigi, who was searching with Pepa, Camilo and Dolores, was using her solar power to search the darker parts of the Encanto. Whisp who was searching with Luisa and Isabella used her powers of the shadows to try and sense Mirabel’s form.

      ❝ Don’t worry, Mama Pepa. We’ll find her. ❞

      ❝ I can’t believe how everything happened so fast. ❞

[jacarandaaaas]

I found some vocal stems of “what else can I do?” so decided to share them!! so here u go <333

[sorcerymuses]

Pepa and Julieta exchanged a look at Whisp's attitude. They'd admit their mother was...difficult at best.

"I'm surprised she didn't point out the cloud," Julieta sighed. "Pepa, are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Pepa grumbled, shooing the cloud away and focusing on the smell in the kitchen. "I'm going to go check on Toñito before dinner," she sighed and started to leave, snatching an arepa on her way out.

"Do you girls have a place to stay?" Julieta sighed, putting a few tamales on plain plates for them. "If not...I'm sure Isa...?"

"There's plenty of space in my room," Isabela sighed, folding her arms tightly over her chest. "I bet Dolores--" she broke off as a tile shifted under her and another tapped a little rhythm by Gigi's feet.

Mirabel came back into the kitchen just then and thrust the bundle of fabric into Whisp's arms before hurrying back out.

"Ugh...let's just go to my room and you can get changed...," Isa groaned.

"And here," Julieta sighed, offering the plates. "Dinner. And all of our rooms have our names on them."

The moment the old woman left, the shadows underneath Julieta and Pepa respectfully wiggled before forming the familiar figures of the princesses. They detached themselves from the women and in a swirl of purple smoke…

… the twin princesses were back.

       ❝ You think If I pour holy water on her, the head would spin around? ❞

       ❝ WHISP! That’s not nice! ❞

       ❝ Don’t act like you weren’t thinking it too. ❞

[sorcerymuses]

Alma made a point to chastise everyone in the room, including Julieta. Who was the only one to give her own mother a stern look.

"I already explained," Dolores whispered. "And besides, I don't do anything anyways." She ended with a squeak and flounced out of the kitchen. Her statement made Abuela growl a little.

"And no one else wanted flowers," Isabela sighed to another growl. Isa shrank into herself a little. Which Alma responded to by stomping over and 'gently' pushing her granddaughter back into a better posture.

"Mamá...," Julieta groaned. A few tiles clattered, moving a set of plates over to her.

Mirabel rushed in, holding a bundle of midnight blue fabric. "Mamá, have--Abuela! Hi...," she greeted nervously, inching back towards the hall.

"Mirabel, what are you doing?" Alma groused. Mirabel adjusted her glasses nervously.

"N-Nothing important...I uh...made a new dress and...um...it's nothing...," she fled the kitchen. Alma made a noise, but left soon after and both Julieta and Isabela relaxed visibly.

The moment the other girl spoke of someone coming, Whisp sense something off in the shadows. Instincts acted out first before pulled herself and Gigi to hide in the shadows.

And she was right to do so as the stern elder woman held a firm and stoic appearance. This was obviously the leader or the head of the family. And by the tone, she was not pleased.

Whisp quickly covered Gigi’s mouth to prevent her twin from speaking. The shadows may have been easy to use to cover them completely out of sight, but one ounce of noise and they would be heard with the family just feet in front of them.

Gigi clasped her hands together, remembering that they weren’t just in any kind of house. She gave a silent plead for the house–Casita– to not reveal that the princesses were here. They were in enough trouble and the sun princess acknowledged it was her fault. But they couldn’t be caught…

[sorcerymuses]

Isabela watched the siblings as Julieta turned back to the stove to check on a steaming pot of tamales, the older woman not reacting in the slightest to Whisp's appearance.

"I guess you didn't have to look for her after all," Dolores laughed, stepping into the room. "But...Abuela's on her way," she squeaked. "So is Mirabel."

No sooner had the words left Dolores' mouth than Alma stormed into the kitchen.

"What is everyone doing home before dinner?" she snapped.

Whisp eyed the mother-daughter duo in the dark corner, not ready to come out. Though she felt the familiar pulse of magic as if nudging her to not hide away. She resisted it, of course. How would they react in this strange new world to her… appearance.

She was about to reject the gentle offer when suddenly…

A very energetic Gigi came in dressed in her new Encanto wear, hair down with a red flower and wearing a red and gold color outfit to represent the warm side of the family. She even had the nerve to twirl around in it with a beaming smile!

  ❝ WHISP! Look at what Mama Pepa and Dolores found for me! Isn’t it pretty? ❞

The shadow princess resisted the urge to twitch her eyes as Gigi could spot her clear as day in the darkest corner of the room. She held her tongue before she felt the tiles… move? She tried to step backwards to stop it but soon was pushed out of the dark!

She fell on the floor with a grunt, clear in her ballgown and lavender skin clear as day. Gigi only knelt down, finger poking her lip before asking…

       ❝ Why where you hiding in the dark, sis? ❞

       ❝ I hate you SO much right now… ❞

[sorcerymuses]

Julieta nodded slowly. She quirked an eyebrow at Whisp seeming to hide. She pulled the last arepa off the stove and patted a chair with her free hand.

"Come over here and eat," she encouraged. "Have you met anyone else in the family?"

"Mirabel's making her a dress," Isa muttered, taking a bite out of her snack.

Whisp continued to stay in the shaded parts of the kitchen so the woman couldn’t see her skin color. But she gave a nod in acknowledgement regardless, enough for her violet hair and silver crown to be seen. Ruby eyes watched the interaction between mother and daughter and a small… twinge was felt in her stomach.

But of course, she didn’t dare show.

       ❝ I’m looking for my twin sister who got lost here. ❞
