something i will always find hilarious about the hollow is the fact that 3/6 of the gang's names are common croatian names and the other three are SO FUNNY when translated

OKOKOKOKOKOK SO AS WE KNow Mirabel does not have a gift like her family (excluding her grandma 🙄) What if casita didn’t see Mirabel to be special and didn’t have anything to go off when the time came? Like Antonio has a love for animals, his gift was understanding/talking to animals.

So… going off on this (and forgive me if I forgot anyone)

- Julieta liked (and still does) cooking/helping people

- Pepe liked the weather and possibly learning about it and/or was (and still is) really emotional

- He (we don’t DARE SPEAK HIS NAME) always wondered about the future (maybe not anymore tho)

- When she was younger, maybe people forgot Dolores was there so she just listen to what people were talking about. Now she hears EVERYTHING. (godblesshersoul)

- I have nothing for Camilo. He’s just a silly boi. Maybe because of his name?? Idk

Long story short, Mirabel just didn’t have a interesting interest.

Btw I think we should keep in mind that she’s casita’s favorite (for what I heard). Possibly to make up not giving her a gift. Which is not surprising tbh imo.

Also I heard that in the movie (I didn’t see as I only watched the movie once and I was distracted by the scenery and music) , young Mira wiped her hands after touching the candle. And that could be it. She wiped off the magic. If that was canon, I would cry.

I think she wasn't given one bc she didn't need one. In the candle scene, Estabela and Camilo tried using their powers and failed, while Mira managed to make it.

Mirabel is creative and helpful, shes good at art and music, she's kinda and caring, there was a lot she could have done with a gift that involved that.

Its possible she was meant to be the next head of the family. All the gift users only really focus on chores and things that involve their gifts, but Mira was able to do a bunch of different things, and help in different situations.

Leaving her giftless lets her focus on different things.
