[magicalmadrigals]

How many times do we think this girl got herself tangled up in her own vines when she was first learning how to use her gift and she was constantly getting untangled by her parents? Tiny Isabela was so CUTE

Bruno loves his newborn nieces, Dolores and Isabela.

Happy Day of the Virgin Mary lol. When I was younger I didn’t know what a virgin was and always thought that Mary wore a green hood.

I just watched Encanto for the first time and here’s my rundown of the Madrigals’ gifts:

Antonio: The rats told me my uncle is in the walls.

Mirabel: I’m the family therapist that keeps this house together… literally.

Camilo: I can shape-shift!

Dolores: …I need to go live with monks.

Isabela: Don’t make your abuela a flower, or you will be forced into godhood.

Luisa: Eldest Daughter Syndrome

Pepa: If I’m emotionally unstable, so is the sky!

Julieta: I heal people through the sheer power of arepas.

Bruno: I can tell you if your house will break down, and you’re asking me if your hairline is receding??? At age 50??????

Alma: Candle.

Very late, I know, but finally filling out week one of the Madrigaydays 2024 prompt: discovery.

A short one shot where Mirabel realises she wants something more than the friendship she has with Sera. Set four years after the film.

A Lovely, Little Discovery

It hit her like a ton of bricks.

Which may be ironic considering that she has actually had a ton of bricks fall upon her and it certainly does not come from nowhere. Getting caught in Casita’s collapse was certainly not sudden. It was not quiet. It had been obvious, everyone knew it was happening. It had reason to happen. It did not make her sweat. It did make goosebumps prick up along her skin; that part had not changed.

That, Mirabel could understand. She had played the moment over in her mind more times than she’d like (to admit out loud) and sometimes left her awake at night, tracing her fingers along the walls just to be sure there were no cracks.

But this random revelation that she was enamoured with Sera Velasquez? No. She doesn’t understand it.

It had come to her while they were walking through town. Having been startled by some children playing, she had dropped her embroidered fan and Sera had picked it up and handed it back to her.

Honestly, it really shouldn’t have been something so notable; Sera probably didn’t think anything of it. Luisa, Antonio or even Isabela would probably have done the same thing if they had been there instead. There was nothing special about it. And yet, to her, it was everything.

She loved Sera.

She loved the feeling of them walking with their arms linked together, side by side. She loved how Sera never batted an eye when a parasol, equally covered in signature embroidery, would join them on these walks and would insist on carrying it for her. She loved when their walks were made longer, both of them stopping to talk or work on their respective creative passions. She loved how, even when the weather was rough, Sera would make the trip to Casita and walk her around the dining room for an hour or so - just so they wouldn’t lose that time together.

She loved Sera’s person more than anything. She had never met someone so assured of themself and confident in their own skills. Sera was brave and bold, one of the warmest and most welcoming people in Encanto. It was easy to feel comfortable in her presence. She was passionate about art and dance, almost putting Luisa to shame in the latter, she seemed to be someone who was born to impress. She was incredible at reading people, knowing exactly what they wanted and made it look effortless. She appreciated Mirabel’s snarky comments and made her laugh as they whispered through parties neither of them wanted to be at. She was a praiseworthy friend and deserved every word of it.

How did this even happen? She wasn’t trying to fall in love by any means!

She already knows she has no sexual feelings, interests or desires - that isn’t just complete revulsion - and with that, a lack of physicality. Romance had always been the same. Well, until now. And it’s not like it’s changed; not really, not fully. She can’t imagine feeling this way about anyone else who isn’t Sera Velasquez - if anything, that same sheer disgust creeps back into her system at the thought of being with someone else and it makes her skin crawl.

It was only Sera that didn’t make her feel that way.

She didn’t want it to stay a friendship. She wanted it to be something more, though she was not entirely sure what. Maybe not a full on romantic relationship? But something more affectionate and personal than this platonic companion.

Yes….

That might—

That would be lovely.

The designs and info of isa’s family!!

Firstly Isabela! The mother of Camilo, Antonio and Dolores!! Her life is pretty rough, she was 6 when her father was taken away from her, while witnessing everything. She had a shitty ass husband who made her family’s life a miserable, the only reason she even married him was because of Alma, and arranged marriage. She divorced him 2 years ago and now she’s happily single. Alma still pressures her in this au too but since the divorce Alma has become much more softer and lowered her standards. Before she had Dolores though she had 2 miscarriages because of her husband!

Isabela was a crazy teenager, she also had a normal sistly relationship with mirabel, sometimes she was maybe mean but she knows mirabel knew she didn’t mean it, at least she thinks that. Her life changed when mirabel disappeared, not having mirabel in her wedding or when she had her kids was the worst. Since then she made sure her family was happy so they wouldn’t wanna leave like mirabel too.

It’s true that Isabela is a protective mother and maybe strict (like asian moms) but she’s the most caring person at the same time. You would never catch her be mean to Dolores or any other little kid. She has a nickname for every family member and a flower too!

Camilo is the eldest grandkid, being more than 5 years older than the others is hard for him, he constantly needs to “be a good influence”. Instead he is the most unserious grandkid, but the funniest! Alma tried to get him arranged with many girls but he passed them since he got eyes for an other person ;) He also had a pretty rough childhood because of his father, he abused him often without Isabela knowing and he was a pretty bad trouble kid. He had a close bond with his Tia mirabel though! Many called them “the age gap twins!” Isabela never complained. Camilo is a smoker, not a badly one just the one who smokes time to time, he got the addiction from his father :\ Camilo is 100% a mama’s boy.

He is a hardworking boy, charming and caring. Yet also trouble some and annoying too, he loves it to annoy his younger siblings or cousins, which they all hate from him besides Pepa. Him and Pepa have special bond, it often reminds him of the bond of him and mirabel, he and pepa often do pranks on others together or are just being besties together. He does have a lot going on which he hates, he is called “the one who never cares” often even though it is just hard for him.

Antonio!! He is as tall as canon mirabel in this au, and a bit chubby!! Antonio is a very shy kid and barely doesn’t have any friends, besides his idiotic trio friends, Juancho-Cecilia-Alejandra! The best four group you would see in town, he loves them very much as friends. Like Camilo, Antonio has a got a bd childhood, experiencing the same abuse as Camilo got. That hit his social life a lot and has made him isolated too, his friends and family kept him up the bad weather, which he is thankful for. He got a scar at his lip because when he was very little, he was playing with a Jaguar cup and the mother jaguar approached him and attacked him, just luckily hurting his lip before Diego saved him. (That jaguar turned out to be parces mother!) he’s still pretty childish in this au which makes him adorable, Alma tries to make him get more friends or more popular but he refuses often.

He’s a deliver boy! His main chore is delivering stuff around the down, he doesn’t like it very much but it’s just what he’s got to do, he thinks his gift could be much more useful but no one will listen to him. He’s the second eldest in the family and he quiet does act like a good influence, if it wasn’t for Julieta, Julieta is confirmed to be the best one out of the grandkids. (Well by Alma to say the least.) that doesn’t stop him from still having an good relationship with her.

Dolores is also a shy kid, shy enough for her to get nervous with her family too! She’s a free child who likes music and drawing a lot. Dolores is left unattended often since she’s quiet mature her age but she doesn’t like it to be alone. Her gift ceremony was a half month ago and it’s her nightmare, Dolores hates her gift but in the other side likes it slightly too. It has its own purpose. She didn’t have a too much bad childhood like Antonio and Camilo but unlike them she was a huge daddy’s girl. If he would’ve pushed her away or screamed at her she would still come back because she actually truly loved her dad no matter what but one day when she was 3 he randomly came to her and broke her leg (the reason Isabela divorced him) which broke her heart and now that he’s gone she is heart broken often, but she has grown more attached to antonio and isabela, if you would try and find her just go to either one of them and she’s there with them!

Later on she will meet someone called “senorita maripose” who she will talk to everyday is secret. For her senorita mariposa is a goddess guard guiding her home, like in a fairy tale (at least that’s what she got told by the woman.) Dolores doesn’t have any friends besides her best friend Mariano! She gets to see him very often and she loves him more than anything (not in a love way, they’re still kids!) they do make trouble often together and he’s the one only one who knows about senorita mariposa.

Ivan….yea…don’t got to say much about him. He is not a great guy since he grew up in a weird family. He got arrested 7 years in prison for child abuse and after Isabela found out what he had done everything she destroyed him. But at least he deserved it. He did pretty bad stuff.

Any thoughts on isa’s family? ;)

ISABELA MADRIGALS DAY OF BIRTH🫶🌵💫💖

had to draw the queen of of self discovery on her birthday! Last year I did a rant abt how much I love her song so I’ll keep it short and sweet this time! Isabela means so much to me as a character her growth and development is iconic her song is a banger and I love a woman who loves plants 🫶 drew her in this dress because I remember someone saying it looked like something she would wear

but I also think post movie isa would want to experiment with her style and customise all her outfits so I drew two versions! anyways I love isabela madrigal we should all appreciate her💗

[yellowcry]

Luisa, on the phone: Hello, I'm sorry, I cannot attend the work today

Luisa: Why? Oh, nothing, it's just that my sisters and cousins proclaimed me as their pillow now and fell asleep on me

[adventuresbyjd]

When Isabela was a baby, she wanted Bruno to hold her when she needed a nap over anyone else, including Julieta. Bruno was quiet and gentle with her, and she would always be asleep within 5 minutes without fail

[magicalmadrigals]

I once did a one shot called “A Hand For A Hermana” where Julieta helps Pepa with Dolores when she and Isa are babies because Lolita is literally being a damn MENACE and Pepa wants to cry, whereas Isa is being an angel for once 😂 I’m planning on rewriting it though, so would that be something you guys would wanna see? To be fair, I might use it as the opening of my one shot series about the Madrigal kiddos honestly. Thoughts?

Elsabela: Perfect Song

CW: Drugs, Ice, Lana Del Rey, Plants

Good morning, afternoon, or evening to anyone reading my post! Thank you for taking the time out of your day or night to read my post.

While I was doing my homework, I was listening to Lana Del Rey. I would not consider myself a Lana stan, but I do enjoy quite a few of her songs, especially ones from her Ultraviolence album.

While I was listening to Lana Del Rey's 2014 song "Brooklyn Baby", I thought that it would be the perfect song for an Elsabela fanfiction. For textual evidence, I have quoted some lyrics below:

First, "They think I don't understand The freedom land of the seventies"

Both Elsa and Isabela wear costumes inspired by 1970s fashion movement, specifically punk and boho.

In addition, both of them crave freedom and self-expression.

Next, "I think I'm too cool to know ya You say I'm like the ice, I freeze"

Yes, I am stating the obvious.

Third, "They judge me like a picture book By the colors, like they forgot to read"

As they sing about in "Let it Go", "Show Yourself", and "What Else Can I Do", people have seen them solely as beautiful, perfect "proper ladies", when they are actually more than perfect princesses.

Fourth, "But I'm free, ooh-ooh I'm free"

Similar to my third point, both ladies crave freedom.

Fifth, "I'm talking about my generation Talking about that newer nation"

Both of them at least influence major social change in their respective hometowns.

Sixth, "And if you don't like it, you can beat it Beat it, baby You never liked the way I said it If you don't get it, then forget it 'Cause I don't have to f*ck*n' explain it"

While I don't think either of them would be that rude to someone, they both have dealt with people, especially parents/grandparents not understanding them or allowing them to express their true selves.

Second to last, "I've got [flowers] in my hair I get h*gh on hydroponic w**d"

After "What Else Can I Do", Isabela realizes that she can make more than decorative flowers, likely including "medicinal herbs". In addition, I am sure she is interested in learning new gardening techniques.

Last, "Yeah, my [girl]friend's pretty cool But [she]'s not as cool as me"(Lana Del Rey, Barrie-James O'Neill)

They are both cool ladies, especially in the eyes of their younger sisters.

Ironically, according to Matthew Jacobs for Huffington Post, Lana Del Rey's song "Brooklyn Baby" is a piece of satire about 2010s-era New York City hipsters and hipster culture. (Jacobs). To state the obvious, Isabela and Elsa are not 2010s-era NYC hipsters, at least in canon and the majority of fanfictions, as their stories are set in small towns in the 19th/20th century, and they are not pretentious or elitist about their personal tastes, which people think of hipsters being.

Overall, the song encapsulates their relationship and personal lives well.

Thank you for taking the time out of your day or night to read my post. Have a good day or night!

“Luisa...” He looked up and, all at once, the obvious hit Bruno. Luisa was panicking and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky, let alone one above her head. No cold breezes, no rain or thunder. The weather outside stayed sunny and the spot above Luisa’s head remained cloud free. There was no snow coating her shoulders, no ice beneath her feet.

Oh Dios mio. The cracks...The Gifts!

“T-Tio,” Luisa gasped. She looked at him with big wet eyes and grabbed his hand in a vice-like grip. “Tio, I’m losing my Gift!”

When Luisa's Gift begins to fade, Bruno makes an important decision: no more running.

A lesson in explosives

Summery: Isabela has been on both sides; Being the kid who had to activate an explosive, and teaching a kid on how to activate an explosive.

Here’s another Marvel AU post! Yes, it’s a one-shot this time, so enjoy!

-

“So, first you flip this switch, and then you flip this switch." Agustín explains to 1 year old Isabela, pointing to the switches of the bomb. "And then you push this button." Agustín continues to explain, pointing to the left button. "But don't push this button, or it will go boom."

He points to the right button on the bomb, trying to make his point crystal clear.

They are currently fighting Ego and trying to blow him up so that he doesn’t destroy the galaxy with his expansion. Unfortunately, the holes that lead to the planet's core are quite small, and Isabela is the only one who can fit through them.

"So, what do you have to do?" Agustín asks his daughter.

Isabela points at the first switch.

"Yes."

She points at the second switch.

"Good."

Then she points at the right button.

"No, no ,no!" Agustín calls out, panicking a bit. "That's the button that makes the bomb go boom!"

Unfortunately, Isabela doesn't get it.

"Can we please do this some other way...?" Agustín asks himself, really not wanting his 1 year old daughter to plant a bomb. They’re all certainly going to die otherwise…

-

"Alright, first you flick this switch, then this switch. That activates it." Strelitzia explains to baby Groot. She points at the left button. "Then you push this button, which will give you 5 minutes to get out of there."

The small tree simply looks at the bomb in front of him as the flower woman explains it all.

"Now, whatever you do, don't push this button." Strelitzia clarifies, pointing at the right button. "Because that will set off the bomb immediately, and we'll all be dead." She explains, pointing at the button. "Now, repeat back what I just said."

"I am Groot."

"Yes."

"I am Groot?"

"Yes."

"I am Groot."

"No!" Strelitzia calls out. "That's the button that will kill everyone! Try again."

"I am Groot?"

"Uh huh."

"I am Groot?"

"That's right."

"I am Groot."

"No! That's exactly what you just said! How's that even possible?!" Strelitzia asks, obviously frustrated. "Which button is the button you're suppose to push? Point to it."

The small tree points at the right button.

"NO!"

"Hey! You're making him nervous!" Mirabel calls out from outside.

"Shut up and give me some tape! Does anybody have any tape out there? I wanna put some tape over the death button!" Strelitzia explains, obviously losing her temper.

"I don't have tape. Let me check." Mirabel measures before disappearing.

Strelitzia can't hear the whole ordeal, since there are a lot of explosions going off. Besides, she's too focused on Groot not accidentally killing them all.

"Nobody has any tape." Mirabel says.

"Not a single person has tape?!"

"Nope!"

"Did you ask Alma?"

"Yes!" That's an obvious lie. "I asked Mamá, and she was sitting right next to her!"

"I knew you were lying!" Strelitzia yells.

"You have priceless batteries and an atomic bomb in your bag! If anyone's gonna have tape, it's you!"

"That's exactly my point! I have to do everything!"

"Isabela, you're waisting a lot of time here!" Alma yells from somewhere else.

Knowing that her grandmother is right, Strelitzia chooses to let it go, and turns around to explain it all one last time, only for him and the bomb to be gone.

Oh no...

"We're all gonna die..."

[justanisabelakinnie]

You ever think that Pepa went to Felix‘s family house and they had dinner and they called her out on like what’s wrong with your baby there I just find that really funny for some reason like white women need practice to learn how to handle black hair 

YES

OMG

THIS IS SO HILARIOUS

YES

They literally cried when Pepa first brought Dolores over to Felix...like "girl that is not how you lay edges, that is not how you do cornrows, you're gonna ruin her hair before she becomes a preteen!"

It's like...imagine Felix's sisters and Felix himself teaching Pepa to do Dolores' hair properly, or Dolores snatching the hairbrush from Pepa's hands and giving it to Felix, or her Tia...that is just...peak comedy there.

[evostar]

I just imagine something cute!

You know that family tree in the kitchen? What if Dolores has the same thing in her room but with Mariano and her kids?

Bisabuela Rosa at the top of the tree. Mariano + Dolores in the middle. And the children start from youngest to oldest, Starting with Diego to Victorio.

Also, here's a few picrews you can use to design the kids (if you'd like) -

Bighead kid picrew

Pixel friend

Makowka character maker

And some from books + movie

AAA THAT IS ADORABLEEEEE!! I will definitely make one after I have the design for every kid!!

New kids unlocked!!! And lore 💪

Okay firstly the tree kids, the one in the front, frisco segundo madrigal and her brother, vicenta segundo madrigal (decided to make them siblings since they look alike to be siblings 👍) their sister (who was their step sister in their past family) Patricia ortuno madrigal!! They lived in a not so great household, often having to take care of themselves since their parents didn’t care, they didn’t get parental love neither did they get cared for good, their parents ended up in jail from some fight and since then Dolores took care of them!! (She basically did before but now they live with her) all of them are 5 year olds!

The two girls wanted their hair to be like Dolores!! Also some earrings :D and Camilo showed vicenta some outfits he might like, which he loved!!

Onto the nexttt, the ginger head is rafaela lazcano madrigal!! He is an orphan, he was in a lot of foster homes, some great and some awful, in the end he got adopted by Dolores since his past foster family was not so great and he also hated hopping into a new foster home every few weeks. He is 7 year old!!

Esmerelda Jerez madrigal!! She did have a parent who cared (her father) who then later on left, her mother didn’t like her since birth since she claimed that esmerelda wasnt her child. Esmerelda actually came from an other town!! Since her mother had left her in this town alone and then left without her. Ofc, Dolores who heard all of this immediately went to her, and now she lives with Dolores :D she is 8 years old!!

Leandra henriquez madrigal! Was the neighbor from Mariano, his parents always left him alone at home, leaving leandra with no food, no money, no nothing. Mariano noticed it and started to take care of him, later on Dolores joined too. He firstly was hesitating (he struggles a lot with abandonment issue like Esmerelda) but then he opened up, they took care of him till they fully took him in! (His parents never came home after one night.) He looks up to Mariano a lot and hopes to become a lot like him. He also is 8 years old!

Camilo trying to make fun of Camilo but it just ended up being humiliating for him!! (He couldn’t carry rafeala for more than 3 seconds) leandra is getting impressed by how strong he is and Esmeralda is admiring mirabels sewing skills!!

The last one is the two siblings, Bronco and Almira socarras madrigal!! (Decided to switch the names with ages) Bronco, who is a curious 3 year old, and his baby sister almira. The 1 year old almira takes a lot from his brother, their curiousy takes Dolores a whole level away!! Their parents didn’t care much about them, mostly letting them outside in the garden not knowing the danger (Dolores had to save them multiple times,) and only doing stuff with them when it comes over to fame. (They care a lot about how people judge them.) In the end, the house was in a fire, dolores safely secured them before any real harm happened. Luckily it was just some scars but it was still very traumatic for them.

Bronco loves candy, but Dolores doesn’t let him eat that much since he’s got a small stomach which gets bad fastly but his Abuela makes sure he gets some daily ;)

Almira loves admiring and touching faces (mostly Dolores’s and isabela’s :D) she’s very curious!!

Thanks a lot for the suggestions!!🩵
