So.

Kids always get up to wild shit. Especially when their little.

Everyone's parent has a story of how their kid nearly gave them a heart attack.

What stories do the madrigals have regarding your next gen fic?

Oh god, so many.

Like, soooo many.

I decided to do just the biggest heart-attack inducing event for each kid.

Miranda: She's well-behaved, so the biggest moment was when she first got her gift at age eight and almost floated off into the stratosphere XD.

Amelia: At fifteen, she snuck out with her girlfriend and they got caught kissing....rather passionately.

Sofía: Got angsty one time at age ten and decided that she wanted to live in the walls like her father did. She was missing for half a day, and everyone was panicking.

Princesa: At the ripe old age of six, she was experimenting with her gift and almost caused a rock slide.

Fuega: She was twelve, and got so angry at one of the townspeople that instead of bursting into flames, she just straight up passed out for a minute.

Leta: That time she tried to climb the walls of the Encanto and fell like fifty feet, breaking her arm. I'd say she was around sixteen or so.

Andrés: When he first got his gift and just straight up vanished from sight lol.

Carlos: When he duplicated his birthday cake one too many times and made himself sick. He was five, this was the night he got his gift.

Avila: When she was nine, she wanted to see if she could freeze herself in time. Turns out she can, but when she's frozen, she can't unfreeze herself until it wears off. The family was actually very worried that she'd be stuck like that forever.

Amada: Got angry when she was eleven, and went to go sulk in the town's canal. Turns out, her water powers also let her breathe underwater, which no one knew.

Tomás: Tried to hover a giant wagon with his powers, and almost dropped it on his head. He was around eight or so.

Rómulo: When he was seven, he used his super speed to jump out of one of Mariana's portals, and ended up running himself straight into the ground. He was very injured. Did that stop him from doing it again? No.

Zoe: Straight up wandered away from her family while in town when she was five. They spent hours looking for her, only to discover that she'd found a tree to take a nap under.

Hugo: He befriended a big-ass spider, and let it crawl around on his head for a few months, until it died. He was nine.

José: Swindled a few men from the city for around 100 Colombian Pesos. They were not happy, and were actually probably gonna hurt José if they didn't get their money back. Luckily the family were able to yeet them out of the Encanto before anything got bad. José was nine, and very very very grounded.

Héctor: When he was five, he turned into an elephant to show off, and passed out after three seconds of transformation.

Óscar: Soon after he got his gift, he had a huge meltdown because he was seeing ghosts and things that other people couldn't see. The family was worried he was seriously hurt or something.

Beatriz: Was trying so hard to keep a surprise birthday party a secret, she projectile vomited all over the kitchen table. Poor kid was six, and so embarassased.

Lidia: Had a temper tantrum at age five, and made a scribble monster that wrecked havoc on the town until Pepa made it rain.

Meet My Encanto OC, Lucía Moreno from Just Your Ordinary, Everyday Miracle on ao3!

Full Name: Lucía María Moreno-Hernandez

Age: 41

Birthday: December 13th

Height: 5'3"

Eye Color: Brown with amber/gold flecks

Hair Color:  Dark Brown

Appearance: Medium brown skin. Long wavy dark brown hair, worn in a braid down her back or wound into a bun at the back of her head. Long thin nose and brown eyes set into a friendly round face. Usually wears a white or cream blouse with a brown, green, or blue skirt and practical shoes.

Memorable Quotes:

“I suppose we should be thankful for small miracles, eh?” Ch. 2

“I don't want an out, Bruno. This may come as a surprise to you, but I actually like you.” Ch. 9

“I want to move forward, but I don't want to forget. Sometimes it feels like everyone else is forgetting.” Ch. 16

 “You’re allowed to forgive yourself for the things you regret.  You know that, right?” Ch. 26

General Information/Personality: Lucía is a kind, practical, 'do-what-needs-to-be-done-with-as-little-fuss-as-possible' type of person. She tends to see the best in people, and her upbringing by two loving parents in the safe and protected Encanto has given her a fairly optimistic view of the world. She's very aware of the pain that can come in life - she is a widow and losing her husband in a tragic accident broke her heart - but she tries to focus on the good she sees in the world instead - and to be some of that good herself. If she sees a need and can meet it, she does. She'll step into a situation without question if she feels she can help, but if someone is antagonizing her directly she avoids them (and conflict) like nobody's business. Her desire to be helpful often directly contradicts (and overpowers) her desire to mind her own business. She's a dreamer and a writer, and her favorite stories are ones that include pirates. Her favorite place to go when she needs time to herself is beneath the old cedar tree in the center of her neighbor's corn fields. Her biggest worry and greatest responsibility in life is raising her daughter Josefina well without her husband Alejandro, but she has a loving family that supports her in her efforts.

History: Lucía’s parents were present at the founding of the Encanto, but Lucía and her younger sister Sofia were not born until around a decade later.  Her father is a printer and does his best to keep literature of both the fiction and non-fiction variety alive in the Encanto, and Lucía followed in her father’s footsteps.  She grew up helping her parents set type and bind books, and reading and listening to various stories and informational texts.  She helps run her father’s print shop and makeshift library and took on a larger role in the shop after her mother died when Lucía was in her early thirties.  Half of the shop houses the printing press, typeset, ink, and paraphernalia associated with printing and bookbinding, and the other half holds several shelves filled with books that her parents either printed or salvaged over the years. She helps set type and print orders and helps maintain the small library they have.  She also hosts a story time for the village kids a few times a week.  Her sister Sofia married Lorenzo Rojas, who runs the stables in the Encanto.

When Lucía was in her early twenties, she married Alejandro Moreno, an up and coming artist who went on to paint a mural of the Madrigals in town.  After they married, they worked together on printing and illustrating a large book of fairytales, legends, and fables, which Lucía still uses during her story times.  They also had one daughter together – Josefina – before he died while roaming the mountains around the Encanto in search of materials for his paints and inspiration for his work.

Alejandro’s death devastated Lucía, and she spent over a month afterward deep in shock, grief, and depression, pushing her family, friends, and even her young daughter away.  It was only with the help of her family that she slowly began to heal from his loss and the mistakes she made while grieving him. She does her best to be a present and loving mother to Josefina and does her best to keep Alejandro's memory alive by speaking of him frequently with her daughter. Three years later she is still in the cyclical process of grieving and healing. The night Casita falls, she's helping clean up her sister's barn when Bruno Madrigal shows up with the hood of his ruana thrown over his head, demanding her ‘fastest steed’. 

Though Lucía is quick to befriend him, their romance is what you would definitely consider a slow burn. It takes both of them time to open their hearts to the possibilty of second chances.

The wonderful art at the top of this post is by the lovely @starfangssecrets. ❤

The rest is mine as I attempt to teach myself to draw. Please excuse variations in appearance and shading as I figure out what the heck I'm doing, lol. 🥰

Thanks so much for hosting this fun event @encanto-extended-edition

Descendants OC Masterlist L-Z

( A - K )

Name: Lani of Atlantica

Story: One Foot In The Sea (And One On The Shore)

Parents: Melody

Face claim: Madelaine Petsch

Love interest: Harry Hook

Name: Lawson Henry

Story: Impossible Dreams

Parents: Laurence Henry

Face claim: Milo Manheim

Love interest: Evie

Summary: Every VK had the same complaints about the Isle — terrible parents, terrible resources, they’dnever broken the law, every day was a battle for survival, you get the idea.  But Lawson Henry had another complaint.  He was lonely.  He may have been a part of Mal’s crew in the loosest of terms, an insignificant ally whose father was only a henchman. But he was alone, forgotten.  He never expected that to change, until a letter came from Auradon.  Mal, Jay, Evie, and Carlos would be going to Auradon Prep, the children of the four most feared villains on the Isle — alongside Lawson Henry, son of a bumbling servant who failed his only job.

He’s sure that it’s a mistake.  He’s sure that he’ll get to Auradon and they’ll tell him that they got it wrong, that they wanted a real VK.  Someone smart, someone powerful, someone like Uma or Harry or Celia.  Instead he’s greeted by an overenthusiastic not-princess, whose own mother was once tricked into almost marrying his father.

Parents: Claude Frollo

Face claim: Elle Fanning

Love Interest: Harry Hook

Summary:  Maria Frollo hated her father.  It wasn’t an uncommon sentiment on the Isle, but it was still true.  She hated him.  More than she’d ever hated anyone.  Lucky for her, she met Queenie and Helena in the marketplace one day and found herself being taken under their wings.  She knows that she isn’t tough, not like they all, but if there’s one thing she learned from her father, it was how to rain hellfire down on her enemies.

Love interest: Helena

Summary: First there was Mal, then there was Uma.  Mal had defected, turned good, abandoned the kids on the isle who desperately needed her help.  Uma’s martyr complex and desperation had long since outweighed her ability to come up with a real plan.  But someone needed to protect the children, needed to keep the major villains in line, needed to run the Isle with an iron first.  And that person is going to be Queenie, no matter the cost.  And if anyone objects to her revolution, well, off with their heads.

Name: Rosabelle Legume

Series: Anti-Hero Series

Story: A Rose By Any Other Name; Kiss With A Fist; You Should See Me In A Crown

Parents: Gaston Legume

Face claim:  Zoey Deutch

Love Interest: Prince Ben; Harry Hook; eventual Ben & Harry

Summary: There were many reasons that Rosabelle Legume didn’t want to go to Auradon: the Beast might have her executed, she didn’t want to leave her big brother, her crew needed her, and she wasn’t ready to say goodbye to Harry or to whatever relationship they had.  But there was one very good reason for her to leave: it would get her away from Gaston.  So she packs her bags and goes to Auradon with Mal and her gang - fine, whatever, she’d help them get the wand and everything would be fine.  But she wasn’t expecting to need to get close to Prince Ben to do it, and now Ro has an even bigger choice to make: Ben or Harry, Auradon or the Isle, good or evil?

Name: Roslyn “Marcie” Hood

Story: Civility

Parents: Robin Hood & Maid Marian

Face claim:  Zoe Colletti

Love Interest: TBD

Summary: Roslyn Hood never wanted to leave Sherwood Forest.  And why would she?  She loved her life there, it was all perfect.  She had her family and she had her freedom, what more could anyone want?  But unfortunately for her, not everyone was as happy about it as she was.  And just before her sixteenth birthday, in one of his last decrees as king, the Beast King made a proclamation.  In exchange for their freedom within the forest, the people of Sherwood Forest would have to send one child — Robin Hood’s own daughter — to Auradon Prep.

Forced out of her home and into a school where no one pretended to want her around, Roslyn had to adapt.  She started going by her middle name, Marcie.  She stopped running around barefoot.  She stopped climbing up to the roofs of the school.  She bided her time, waiting until she could leave.  But when Prince Ben brings over a new group of students, she finds that her time may have come sooner than expected.

Name: Rylan Fitzherbert

Story: Next Stop Anywhere

Parents: Rapunzel, Cassandra, Flynn Rider / Eugene Fitzherbert

Face claim: Timothee Chalamet

Story: War Of Hearts

Parents: Stromboli

Face claim:  Diana Silvers

Name: Sloane White

Story: Ties That Bind

Parents: Snow White

Face claim:  Odeya Rush

Love Interest: Chad Charming

Summary: Sloane White had a plan.  Actually, Sloane White had several plans.  And backup plans, and backup plans for her backup plans.  She had plans for her relationship with Chad.  She had plans for the future of Bavaria, and for how she would hold title of both Queen and High Protector.  She had plans for her Aunt Evie, and for Ben’s dream of Isle reformation.  Sloane White had a plan for everything.  Except for Ben publicly proclaiming his love for one of the VKs.

Name: Taryn Porter

Story: Strangers Like Me

Parents: Tarzan & Jane Porter

Face claim:  Kaylee Bryant

Love Interest: Jay

Summary: Let’s make one thing clear, no one wanted Taryn Porter at Auradon Prep.  Well, no one except for Ben, and no one was willing to go against the prince over bringing a civilian to their school.  Her dad grew up in a jungle, raised by apes and her mom was a scientist.  Taryn absolutely, most definitely, did not belong at Auradon Prep alongside children of princes and princesses.  Maybe that’s why, when Ben decides to bring four villain kids to the school, Taryn is the only person who’s genuinely excited about more outcasts joining the student body.

Name: Topher Charming

Story: The Weight Of Living

Parents: Prince Charming & Cinderella

Face claim: Nicholas Galitzine

Love Interest: Evander Grimhilde

Summary: The problem with founding a kingdom when the ruling family has no children is, of course, figuring out the line of succession.  That wasn’t the first problem with the founding of Auradon, to be fair, but it was the first one that concerned His Majesty the king.  But, in a stroke of great fortune, a royal baby was born soon after.  Christopher Charming II, son of Ella and Kit Charming, prince of Gevaudan.  And, until such time as Adam and Belle have a child of their own, the heir to the United Kingdoms of Auradon.

Fortunately, Belle and Adam have a son the following year, and Topher is bumped down to being the spare.  But unlike the spares of old, there is no room for Topher to be anything less than perfect.  He’s the eldest royal child in Auradon, the blueprint upon which every other child’s future will be mapped.  A modern day Atlas, carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders, but a sacrifice that he made willingly so that no other royal child would have to.  Along with being the perfect prince himself, Topher took his responsibility as Ben’s right hand incredibly seriously.  Whether that be coaching him in all of the skills that a prince should have, or tutoring him on matters of policy and protocol, or helping him draft his first official decree as king.  Whatever it may take, Topher would do anything to protect and support Ben, to help him be the best king he could be without having to sacrifice his childhood.  When Ben brings five children from the Isle to Auradon, Topher volunteers himself to help them adapt to their new home.  But his determination to see Ben’s plan succeed is put to the test when he meets Evander Grimhilde, the unfairly attractive son of the Evil Queen.

Story: Love Struck

Parents: Viatrix

Face claim: Olivia Rodrigo

Love Interest: Griffin

Name: Violet Kingsleigh

Story: Lavender Haze

Parents: Alice & The Hatter

Face claim: Meg Donnelly

Love Interest: Cian Hearts

Summary: Violet Kingsleigh loved growing up in Wonderland, she really did.  She loved spending mornings in her aunt’s - the queen’s - gardens; she loved fighting lessons with her parents and reading with Absolem; she loved playing with the Tweedles and hide and seek with Chess; and, of course, she adored her dad’s infamous tea parties.  Yes, Violet loved everything about Wonderland.  Especially that it wasn’t in Auradon.  It was perfect.  And then the queen is cursed, and all of Wonderland knows that Auradon is to blame.  But they can’t declare war without proof, so suddenly their young princess is being sent to Auradon prep to investigate.  Violet knows her mission.  Violet is absolutely and entirely focused.  Violet is most definitely not prepared for the boy-king to have invited a group of teenagers from the Isle Of The Lost to start school on the same day as her.

Name: Winnie Pan

Story: Where Dreams Are Born

Parents: Wendy Darling & Peter Pan

Face claim:  Haley Lu Richardson

Love Interest: Harry Hook

Summary: When magic was shut off from Auradon, Neverland was shut away, no one could come or go.  Unfortunately for Peter Pan, he was on the wrong side of that barrier.  Stuck in Auradon with a fully grown Wendy Darling, he had no choice but to grow up, and in fact the vanishing of the magic that had kept him young didn’t just make him age as normal, it pushed him into immediate adulthood.  And with adulthood came children.  A daughter, Winnie Pan.  Winnie was raised on Peter and Wendy’s stories about Neverland and she had long since fallen in love with it.  But it was inaccessible, she’d been told, she could never see it.  And as much as she hated it, she understood.  Until Prince Ben lets four villain children through their barrier into Auradon.  And Winnie has a realization: if one barrier can be taken down, so can the other.  And Winnie Pan will follow the second star to the right to the home she should have had, or she’ll die trying.

Summary: Before Prince Ben’s proclamation, no one had ever left the Isle Of The Lost. No one, except for Ophelia. The daughter of the Enchantress, a being made of pure magic, she was everything that the Beast-King hated, the very danger that the Isle was meant to contain. But as the only child of the most powerful villain, she was a valuable bargaining chip for Auradon; a way to ensure that the villains never tried to escape.

And so Ophelia grew up in Auradon, always excluded for her parentage, never belonging and always knowing that the Beast-King could have her killed at any moment. Still, there was one silver lining to life as a hostage: Prince Ben of Auradon. Where everyone else looked at her and saw a future villain, Ben saw a girl in need of a friend. Growing up side by side in the castle, the two had always been inseparable, despite his parents’ strong objections.

But when Ben brings four more kids over from the Isle, Ophelia finds herself unsure of who she wants to be. The villain that Auradon expected her to be, or the hero that Ben believed she could be.

Summary: Let’s make one thing clear, no one wanted Taryn Porter at Auradon Prep.  Well, no one except for Ben, and no one was willing to go against the prince over bringing a civilian to their school.  Her dad grew up in a jungle, raised by apes and her mom was a scientist.  Taryn absolutely, most definitely, did not belong at Auradon Prep alongside children of princes and princesses.  Maybe that’s why, when Ben decides to bring four villain kids to the school, Taryn is the only person who’s genuinely excited about more outcasts joining the student body.

Face claim:  Jordan Fisher

Name: Violet Kingsleigh

Story: Lavender Haze

Parents: Alice & The Hatter

Face claim: Meg Donnelly

Love Interest: Cian Hearts

Summary: Violet Kingsleigh loved growing up in Wonderland, she really did.  She loved spending mornings in her aunt’s - the queen’s - gardens; she loved fighting lessons with her parents and reading with Absolem; she loved playing with the Tweedles and hide and seek with Chess; and, of course, she adored her dad’s infamous tea parties.  Yes, Violet loved everything about Wonderland.  Especially that it wasn’t in Auradon.  It was perfect.  And then the queen is cursed, and all of Wonderland knows that Auradon is to blame.  But they can’t declare war without proof, so suddenly their young princess is being sent to Auradon prep to investigate.  Violet knows her mission.  Violet is absolutely and entirely focused.  Violet is most definitely not prepared for the boy-king to have invited a group of teenagers from the Isle Of The Lost to start school on the same day as her.

Name: Winnie Pan

Story: Where Dreams Are Born

Parents: Wendy Darling & Peter Pan

Face claim:  Haley Lu Richardson

Love Interest: Harry Hook

Summary: When magic was shut off from Auradon, Neverland was shut away, no one could come or go.  Unfortunately for Peter Pan, he was on the wrong side of that barrier.  Stuck in Auradon with a fully grown Wendy Darling, he had no choice but to grow up, and in fact the vanishing of the magic that had kept him young didn’t just make him age as normal, it pushed him into immediate adulthood.  And with adulthood came children.  A daughter, Winnie Pan.  Winnie was raised on Peter and Wendy’s stories about Neverland and she had long since fallen in love with it.  But it was inaccessible, she’d been told, she could never see it.  And as much as she hated it, she understood.  Until Prince Ben lets four villain children through their barrier into Auradon.  And Winnie has a realization: if one barrier can be taken down, so can the other.  And Winnie Pan will follow the second star to the right to the home she should have had, or she’ll die trying.

Sofía’s full name is Sofía Sara Madrigal.

Her first name means “wisdom” and her middle name means “noblewoman”.

She is the youngest daughter of Bruno Madrigal and Alejandra Delgado.

She has dark brown hair like her father’s, but it’s straight like her mother’s. Her skin is a paler brown than Bruno’s, but darker than Alejandra’s. She has Alejandra’s eyes and facial features. She looks identical to Amelia.

She is fifteen years old.

She has an older half-sister by sixteen years named Miranda, and a twin sister, Amelia, older by fifteen minutes.

She likes both boys and girls, and has a crush on a boy named Tristán.

Her gift is negative emotion manipulation. She can change the negative emotions of anyone she wants, as long as she herself is feeling said emotion. This is visualized by a multicolored aura around her body, with a specific color for each emotion. She has less control of her gift, and so this often happens involuntarily. She hates her gift, as the people of the Encanto get annoyed by her for this power. This has worsened her depression, and caused her to invert into herself.

Her door portrays her with a sad look on her face, holding her hands to her chest. Spiked waves push off of her body.

Her room has blue stained glass windows as walls, and a blue and green colored river-rock tile floor. Her bed and other amenities are pushed to the sides to make room for a large water fountain/pond, which takes up most of the room.

Her symbol is the mask of tragedy

She’s closer to Bruno than anybody else, and often confides in him, due to the similar reactions of the townspeople to their powers.

She loves and appreciates how protective Alejandra is, and how she always builds her up.

Miranda acts very motherly to her, and isn’t put off by her strange gift or attitudes.

Sofía is the only person not affected by Amelia’s gift, and vice versa. She is simultaneously annoyed with and jealous of Amelia and her gift. 

She spends the most time with Fuega, Andrés, Zoe, Hugo, and Óscar, as they are considered the “outcasts” of the Madrigals.

She gets along best with Pepa, Dolores, and Óscar.

She loves to write poetry, and will do so with Mariano and Andrés.

She has depression, and whenever she has an episode, she’ll isolate herself from everyone else, so they don’t feel the same way.

She loves listening to running water, and dreams of going to the beach one day.

She likes to sing, but rarely does so in public.

Like her twin, she likes to dress up and look pretty for events. 

Her favorite colors are blue, indigo, purple, and green.

>3> can... can I get a doodle of Luisa being an absolute teddy bear with the OC I have for her- Sofia?

i-it's cool if not

🥺 👉🏼👈🏼

Here you go!

Generally not one for OCs but she pretty!

[16magnolias]

How about #25 for the OC ask game for Lucía 👀

25.What inspired you to create them / how did you create them? Were they originally a fancharacter? What was their personality / design like when you first made them?

Boy howdy, the answer to this question just keeps going and going. I don't know if you were shooting for the Abridged Full History of the Development of Lucía Moreno-Hernandez, but that's what you're gonna get.  😅

Originally, Everday Miracle was just going to be a silly little one shot of how Bruno got the dang horse at the end of the movie. With the first draft of the first chapter, Lucía was just a throw away character. 😬😅 I asked myself 'where did Bruno get that horse and how did he get it?', and Lucía was a means to an end - she was just someone kind enough to recognize a desperate man when she saw one and offer him a way to get where he needed to go, without putting up too much of a fuss about who he was.

And then I thought - wouldn't it be nice if Bruno had a friend? And wouldn't it be nice if he could help her in some way too?

....and it ballooned wildly from there. 😂

I didn't know what a fancharacter was until I looked it up and I suppose technically speaking she is a fancharacter because I created her specifically for this Encanto story!

Originally her two main traits were kind and practical, and I think I've stayed pretty true to those traits, though of course her personality developed and became more complex from there. I played around with the idea of her having more than one child and also swapping aspects of her and her sister Sofia - aka in another universe, Lucía might have had 5 kids and run the horse stables while Sofia ran the print shop with Lorenzo. Ultimately I decided that was way too many kids for poor Bruno to have to win over and way too many people for me to keep track of writing. (There are already 12 Madrigals! 12! I did not need to add another 6 main characters 😂.)

As for her design, I admit I came up with her personality and background waaaaay before I ever thought about what she looked like physically. (Back when I was only posting on ff.net, I didn't describe in detail anything but her eyes and height until chapter 22!  When I transferred the story to AO3 I moved some descriptions around so people had a better idea of what she looked like earlier on.)

I settled on the design I ultimately did because it seemed like a lot of villagers had similar traits and I was hoping to find a screenshot/spot her somewhere in the scenes where there are a lot of villagers. I uh....should probably do that some time haha.

And, to a lesser extent, I chose her physical traits because I wanted her to blend in. I wanted her to be unassuming physically. There's a poem by William Wordsworth called 'She dwelt among the untrodden ways' and the middle verse says:

   "A violet by a mossy stone Half hidden from the eye! —Fair as a star, when only one Is shining in the sky."

And that's kind of the vibe I was going for with Lucía. To most people she's not particularly remarkable but to the people who love her, she's special and beautiful and means the world to them.

Yes she has her dad’s nose thanks for asking

Bruno x oc (Lola) nextgens under cut

Bruno and Lola Madrigals children Oscar Madrigal, 17 y/o (gift- Dreamwalking. He’s able to tell what dreams could be about, any secret meanings, and even help change them for the better (but sometimes, things could go wrong, and dreams can become nightmares, the tone shifting entirely)) Salvador Madrigal 14 y/o (gift - Comforting Perfume. He’s able to create a perfume that is comforting for a person to smell, triggering pleasant memories and feelings, and he’s able to bottle it up and give it to those in need. By boiling water, hes able to infuse the scent into it, creating the perfume)

Claudia Madrigal 6 y/o (gift - Illumination. She’s able to use moonlight, and all that relates, to light up areas/make things glow around her. She’s also able to slightly predict when danger is coming due to the star’s nature. Her lights come in the forms of standard moths, varying in size depending on how she casts them)

Children:

Oscars → Adella and Sofia

Salvadors → Valentino, Javier, and Maria

Claudias → Sebastian, Malena, Luca, and Luna (last two are twins)

Adella can see the red strings of fate, and is able to tell what sort of relationships come about with them. Right arm— friends, Right wrist— family, Left arm— pets, Left Wrist— Lovers. There can be broken strands, frayed strands, thick strands, and very thin ones. If she touches the ribbon, she’s able to reveal it to everyone in the room, and she is able to snip connections with a special pair of scissors.

Sofia can negate any gifts by speaking to the gift holder, and it's released when she grants it.

Valentino posses a version of his Abuela Lola’s gift, a sort of shadow magic. He’s able to create crystals that glow with an umbral energy, and he sells them as dreamcatchers, which they kind of are? They soak in negative energy and if they’re taken back to him, he can consume it all and get rid of it later with a small ritual.

Javier has super speed, and can travel across the whole town in 3 seconds.

Maria can make inanimate objects come to life. She can usually manipulate a couple medium sized things at once (pianos) OR one BIG one (a church) OR a lot of small ones (spoons and brooms).

Sebastian is able to control winter properties (frost, snow, ice). Can make winds chillier, cover things in aforementioned properties, and most of all create constructs and golems made of such things.

Malena can see into the past, able to see things as small as where someone forgot their hat or as big as ‘who hurt you all those years ago?’

Luca can teleport, and can travel as far as he can see.

Luna has an impressive pair of swan wings, and is able to fly, glide, and hover using them.

Salvador has a husband and a wife, Angel and Bianca. Valentino being Sal’s and Biancas, Javier being Angels and Biancas, and Maria being an adopted child, taken in as a baby. Angel is a very sweet and timid man, a gentle giant, whilst Bianca is a bit of a firecracker, doing things on whims to escape monotony.

Oscar has a partner, Sage, who is a he/him trans man. They wear bandages and have not had any sort of surgeries. Sage isn’t the brightest bulb in the shed, but he’s got a very good instinct. (Sort of like a Barley Lightfoot-H20 Delirious combo? Either way he’s a bit of a dunderhead).

Claudia has a husband, Leonel, who she’s childhood friends with. Leonel is a very compassionate yet very sarcastic pessimist. It contrasts well against Claudias optimism.

If you've made it this far, WOW. You're seriously dope. You get half off a commission! No joke. Send me an ask that says 'beep bop' if you got this far!

[lizzywrites1]

Little Sofia 🥰 I love her! 

From the RP that @aquaauratora, @encantoartdump, and I are in.  

@becstuffs I drew this a while back- though she is actually shorter than what I drew... it was hard to fix it since pen and paper don't have edit undo 😭

I'll draw her again real soon- keep an eye out! 👀

Camilo’s Birthday Gift

The OC here is my own from a longer series I’m planning. You can read whatever I have planned in my Masterlist under “Ramirez…”!

Camilo has planned to make something amazing for his girlfriend’s birthday. However, his plans keep getting interrupted by his chores and time is running out.

Camilo has been working on his Sofia’s gift for a good week! His fingers ached and his eyes drooped every night he stayed up but nothing that couldn’t be fixed by his tia’s arepas.

At least, until his chores started piling up.

Suddenly it seemed like every single person in town needed his help - more babysitting, party decorating, people replacing and more of his daily chores. Even Antonio was too busy training his animals to play with his older brother!

The few minutes he was free, he tried to meet with Sofia. She saw him transform nearly every hour and he waved off her concerned questions every time.

Yet every time Camilo went back to his room, he had to force himself to look away from his half-done gift hidden under his bed. Every time, he was telling himself there would be time tomorrow as his head landed on his pillow.

Now he had only a few days left, and so much more he needs to do to finish his gift. His mind was buzzing - torn between just buying another gift, and staying up even later to finish. When was the last time he slept on time? Or even spent more than a few minutes with his vida?

Camilo was so so tired - of his chores, of the people who insist on him transforming to their whims, of the very little time he had to spend with his family. What’s the use of his gift if he can’t make the people he truly cared about happy? Before he knew it, Camilo had worried the afternoon away and it was nearly time for dinner.

All his frustration and sadness at not being able to finish his gift ended up at the next person to knock on his door. He rarely got upset, being the “happiest and goofiest Madrigal” after all. But for once-

“LEAVE ME ALONE!” He yelled at the door, cramming his face into his pillow as he screamed in sheer frustration. In a split second, his body turned numb at hearing the voice at his door.

“Cami? Pepa wanted me to tell you it’s time for dinner.” Oh no. Oh no no no. Not her. He just screamed for the first time at the girl he likes the most. Camilo scrambled to get up, almost tripping over the pillow he flung and ripping the door open. It was her.

All he saw was the hurt confusion on her face, and his mind just blanked. He tried to speak, instead transforming quickly into some of the villagers, then Antonio, before he returned to himself with a killer headache.

“Cami, I’m here. I got you. It’s going to be okay.” Her voice murmured and he could finally take a breath. He realised he was in her arms, her body gently warming his in a firm embrace. He finally sniffed and wrapped his arms tightly around her, murmuring apologies over and over.

“Do you still need time alone? Dolores probably heard us already, so I might be able to convince Alma to let us eat in your room.” He nodded, reluctantly letting her go. She gently wiped his cheeks with her thumbs, smiling warmly at him.

“I’ll be back in a few minutes with our food.”

Camilo let her in after he nudged his secret gift further under his bed, staying quiet until a plate stacked high with his favourites was placed next to him. He ate quietly with her, appreciating the silence and her side pressing against his. Reminding him that he was not alone.

When he finally talked, he gradually started sounding like his mother’s overthinking. He told Sofia about his frustration, how he never seemed to have enough time, how everyone was telling him what to do, and how he just wanted to be just Camilo for once. Things he only told her and his parents - but he was so much more upset now after having to do so many chores nearing a special date.

Sofia just listened, holding his hand when he started clenching and unclenching his fists until his nails dug into his palms. She rubbed her thumb in circles on the back of his hand, silently telling him she was there. By the time he finished ranting, he felt mentally drained and was leaning against her with his head on her shoulder.

“Thank you for telling me Camilo.” And just like that, Camilo felt heard. The guilt and frustration in him seemed to melt away as she told him, like every other time he needed to hear, that he was enough and he did everything her could. That he is entitled to have the time to be himself, and that he should never be guilty for it.

When he was finally ready to leave his room, he let Sofia bring him to his mother’s room. For a moment, he felt bad that he didn’t spend as much time as he could have with his girlfriend. She simply smiled and cupped his cheek, pressing a soft kiss to it and whispering a “See you tomorrow.”

Once Sofia left, Camilo saw Pepa’s cloud flitting between a rainbow and a drizzle. All he could do was hug her tightly and cry. Pepa and Felix listened to him, and after he revealed why he was taking so long with his gift, Felix suggested a brilliant idea.

The next day, Abuela allowed Camilo the day off and Camilo got to work. He was knocking on all his cousins’ and sibling’s doors. They were more than happy to help him once they heard about the gift he had planned.

The delight in Sofia’s face made Camilo’s week worth the wait and effort. A ruana made in the same golden fabric as his, but made even more special with the efforts of his family.

Dolores had gotten Mariano to write a poetic one-liner, and Mirabel embroided it along the edges of the fabric. Isabela made Sofia’s favourite plants to soak the ruana in their scent. Luisa had called in a few favours with the villagers to help - coming up with fireworks, paints and even a date at Sofia’s favourite bakery. Antonio had his animals distract play with Sofia and Mateo before her surprise birthday party at the Casita, and welcomed her family with a majestic bird performance.

For most of his childhood and pre-teen years, Camilo felt that he had to help everyone by being someone else. He forgot that he too needed help sometimes, and he is grateful that the people closest to him sees him as Camilo - the sensitive and kind teenaged boy who happens to have shape-shifting powers.
