How I perceive different types of beauty in astrology 

The more you have of one placement the more prominent or obvious it becomes

If you have a few you will give off a mix of the vibes I talk about, you may resonate more with one at a certain time, or tap into different ones for different occasions. In the future I may analyse some celebrities so you can see an example of all influencing placements mixed together.

That is what is so interesting, everyone has different mixtures of these placements, so finding the mixture you give off can help you see what type of vibe/aura you give off.

Pisces Placements - specifically rising, moon and Venus 

Neptune dominant people, or Neptune aspecting the Asc

Aspecting mc can have an influence too - mainly conjunct

This is an etherial type of beauty. It’s soft and heavenly. Remember Neptune is the higher octave of Venus. Neptunian people have something about them where it feels like they literally glimmer, they give off this glowing light. They remind me oof the sound of wind chimes. This can be their eyes or a certain feature that can reflect this, but usually it’s just an overall vibe. There can a preciousness or innocence about their look. It is almost angelic. Extreme beauty can be seen through these placements. 

Examples

Sofia Loren - ascendant trine Neptune

Julia Roberts - ascendant trine Neptune

Andrew Garfield - ascendant square Neptune

Pricilla Presley - ascendant square Neptune 

Whitney Houston - ascendant in Pisces

Aquarius placements - rising, moon, Venus (using modern astrology for this)

Uranus dominant people, Uranus aspecting the Asc

Uranus aspecting mc too - mainly conjunct 

This is a striking type of beauty. It’s unforgettable. There is a uniqueness to these people, one or a few of their features stand out because it’s unusual. There can be something almost other-wordly about them. There is something about uranians that draw people to them, something you cant ignore or put your finger on, almost a shocking beauty, it strikes you like lightning.  They like being different and standing out. They cut through the crowd with their looks. In some ways their looks can also be ahead of their time.

Examples

Zendaya - Aquarius rising 

Johnny Depp - Uranus in 1st house

Audrey Hepburn - Aquarius rising and Uranus in 1st house 

Gemma Arterton - Uranus trine Ascendant

Emma Stone - Uranus trine Ascendant

Thank you for reading!

I did want this to be longer but I only had time to write about and research two so far.

there will be other parts to this with descriptions for for each sign/planets influence. I will be getting them out this week so if your placements haven't been mentioned look out for that.

If you like this type of content I will also be releasing some slots for chart readings from me soon, looking at not only your overall chart but also options for analysis of specific sections, so please look out for that too in the next month as I will have limited space :)

So, since Cedric cloned Sofia and that clone was able to talk to animals, that means that Pink Sofia's Amulet isn't just a phony. It's equally as magical as the original Amulet, and blessings and curses work the same.

Wouldn't that mean that Elena (or a copy of her) would've been inside Pink Sofia's Amulet? Since the original Elena granted the blessings and curses to its owner and thus a clone of said owner having the same powers would have the same quasi-magical princess trapped within the Amulet?

And not even that. Cedric flat out kills Pink Sofia by reversing the spell that made her. This spell also neutralizes the "clone Amulet" and by extension, Princess Elena's clone trapped within the Amulet.

Meaning that Cedric did in one episode what Princess Ivy, Shuriki, Fiero, the Delgados, and the other villains in Elena's series couldn't do in 3 seasons. Kill Elena (even if it was a version that wasn't the OG).

American Sweethearts

Idk what it is... but literally almost every cancer I've seen is always attractive and considered beautiful. Whether it be woman or man, or cancer sun, moon, or ascendant. They always tend to be physically attractive to most people. I read on one of @zeldasnotes post that whatever country has your asc sign as their Venus sign, you tend to be conventionally aligned with their beauty standards. I believe this to be especially true in America! Since Americas venus sign is cancer! So many cancer Ascendants , but cancer placements in general and even moon/ceres dominant people are generally considered timelessly beautiful 😍

Saweetie: Cancer Sun

Angelina Jolie: Cancer Asc

Pop Smoke: Cancer Sun

Kehlani: Cancer Asc

Keke Palmer: Cancer Asc

Mariah The Scientist: Cancer Asc

50 Cent: Cancer Sun

Sofia Vegara: Cancer Sun & Moon

Ariana Grande: Cancer Sun

Keith Powers: Moon 1h

Rihanna: Moon 1h/ conjunct Asc

Whitney Houston: Moon 1h

There's so many others I didn't include, Venus energy seems to play a significant role in creating beauty standards. It appears that these individuals have a more noticeable impact on their looks within this particular country. Many of them are often encouraged to pursue a career in modeling without needing to work hard – just be pretty, which is exemplified by Saweetie's career. People often say she should model instead of pursuing music. A lunar-influenced ascendant tends to show "pretty privilege," and this applies to having Ceres in the 1st house or conjunct the ascendant, as well as having the Moon as a dominant planet. Marilyn Monroe had Ceres in the 1st house, Kim Kardashian is also Moon dominant, and so is Nicki Minaj. Even if these individuals are not conventionally physically attractive, they are usually socially accepted. Additionally, both men and women are often sexualized.

I've also noticed that natives with lunar-influenced midheavens tend to be very successful in America, especially in business, because in America's chart, there is a sun, Jupiter, and Venus conjunction in the 7th house. This shows business, but with the sun, those with these placements tend to shine and become noticed for their talents, beautiful work, and abundance of wealth....*cough cough* Bill Gates, Tyler Perry, etc... These people know how to touch the hearts of people, whether that be good or bad.

Beyonce: Cancer Mc

Britney Spears: Cancer Mc

Leonardo Di Caprio: Cancer Mc

Tyler Perry: Cancer Mc

Denzel Washington: Cancer Mc

Stevie Wonder: Cancer Mc

Venus Williams: Cancer Mc

JFK: Cancer MC

Kendrick Lamar: Cancer Mc

Etta James: Moon 10h

Kylie Jenner: Moon 10h

Bill Gates: Moon 10h

Naomi Campbell: Moon 10h

Tina Turner: Moon 10h

Tyra Banks: Moon 10h

Idris Elba: Cancer Mc

I also find it funny how Barack Obama was one of the most liked president's if not the only most likable president's of The united states. And he has a Cancer Venus, making America's Venus & jupiter conjunct his Venus. So this explains alot, people with cancer in prominent places are usually seen as very iconic, and as trailblazers. This makes sense since Cancer is a cardinal sign and is also ruled by the moon. Moon is really what brings us peace of mind, and in a way, happiness. I have more coming out on this topic so don't think this is all ya'll!

Beauty numerology

Keep in mind that this is similar to astrology in the sense that every number has its own beauty (just like every placement does). This is more referring to the people who are very attractive to most of the people they encounter. You don’t need these energies to be considered beautiful though

• how to find your numerology

Main Numbers:

— 1 energy —

Similar to Mars in the 1st house beauty. These people are very photogenic and have lots of sex appeal. The women are very sexualized by men typically

• Examples: Marilyn Monroe, Lucky Smith, Millie Bobby Brown, Scarlett Johansson, Margot Robbie, Ice Spice, SZA

— 5 energy —

Represents conventionally attractive beauty. Similar to Venus in 1st house beauty. Many people are easily seduced by them. They have natural beauty

• Examples: Beyonce, Taylor Hill, Ryan Reynolds, Gigi Hadid, Angelina Jolie, Mila Kunis, Jung Ho-yeon

— 9 energy —

Represents extreme beauty. Goddess-like. Similar to Neptune in 1st house beauty. Can manipulate others with their beauty easily

• Examples: Madison Beer, Adriana Lima, Ariana Grande, Cindy Kimberly, Jenna Ortega, Bella Hadid, Nara Smith

Bonus Numbers:

- 2/11 energy -

Feminine beauty. This is more of a beauty number for women than men typically. They usually have very feminine bodies as well

• Examples: Rihanna, Jennifer Aniston, Emma Watson, Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, Kendall Jenner

- 8 energy -

Can be very beautiful if karma is worked through

• Examples: Tyla, Sabrina Carpenter, Naomi Campbell, Zendaya, Kylie Jenner, KeKe Palmer, Sofia Vergara

[book--wyrm]

(post-finale update/correction)

Okay, so the timeline is:

Carmine dies Nov 5, and just to be generous, lets say somehow Alberto gets Sofia out on that same day.

She gets a week to compose herself, then Alberto dies November 13

Johnny says we're moving drops in 48 hrs, so the heist happens on nov 15, and alberto's funeral is the next day, 16th.

Sofia shows Oz her bliss operations the next day (17), and that night, Johnny tells Sofia she has two days to get ready (18 + 19), then she's off to italy (20th, as seen on the plane ticket).

All the triad stuff happens on the 18th, Sofia gets concussed and wakes up in Julian's office morning of the 19th. Family dinner, gas, etc. At the same time, Oz captures taj.

Morning of the 20th, johnny gets waterboarded, family is renamed the gigantes, johnny gets popped. Meanwhile, the whole maroni massacre happens, Sal escapes, Oz moves to his new lair

Apparently the timeskip is only like. 10 days, according to the podcast, so ep 6 starts on nov 30, covering the intro to the crime lab, Sofia and Julian's bad bdsm, and dinner with sal.

Cobb family breakfast is the next day, so is the break in to Oz's apartment. Sofia wears the same clothes all the way to the end of the episode, so I assume all of that is on december 1st.

And then all of episode 7 is the next day, december 2nd.

in conclusion

Sofia has literally been out of arkham LESS THAN A MONTH jesus christ

[hannahhook7744]

Sofia Madrigal Prepon Headcanons;

Her full name is Sofia Azucena Madrigal Prepon.

She is 15 years old by d3.

Her birthday is January 1st and she was born at midnight while her twin sister was born on December 31st at O’clock. Meaning that they technically have different birthdays despite being born only four hours apart. 

Sofia is the younger twin of Amelia, the older half sister of Carlos, and the adoptive sister of Hugo and José.

She is the biological daughter of Yanamaria Earlene Maldonado Amaya and Mentiroso Diego Esposito Sosa but neither she nor her twin sister talk to either of them, and she never will. She much prefers her adoptive parents, Camilo Madrigal and Mina Prepon. 

Between the twins and Carlos, Sofia is the one who misses their biological mother the most. Though given how things ended with her mother, that is not exactly a good thing. 

The fact that her mother thought of her as a monster has greatly affected Sofia's mental health and confidence.

Camilo has been in her life since before she was even born and married her mom (his first wife) when she was just two months old. 

She has a slightly lighter skin tone than her bio mother—Yanamaria—with a pointy nose, dark brown (almost black, now) eyes, a pointed chin, and long, straight, dark brown hair with choppy (almost uneven) bangs.  

After Sofia got her gift her looks changed ever so slightly—making her taller than Amelia, her teeth sharper, her nails longer/sharper, and her more gaunt-looking. It also changed her aura, making her come off as much more dangerous/creepy than she is when in reality she’s mostly harmless.

This is one of the many things Sofia is insecure about. 

She is a student at Auradon Prep—and the only reason she likes going there is because it means she gets to spend time with her boyfriend, Prince Diego of Cordoba.

She’s not very popular at Auradon Prep: most people there don’t even know she exists and the ones who do? Well, most of them don’t like her or are scared of her. Or both. 

She’s a member of the Art Club and Sewing Club.

Sofia has always wanted to be a taxidermist, a forensic anthropologist, coroner, or an archaeologist when she grew up: those are her dream jobs. Her ideal work. 

She has the gift of nightmare Manipulation and Animation which is the opposite of Amelia’s gift. 

Sofia has fewer nicknames than her twin, Amelia, does. The most notable of which are Sof, Fia, Angel, So, So-So, Sia, Fifi, Sofy, and Soph-Bear. 

There’s also ‘Amelia’s twin’ but she doesn’t answer to that for obvious reasons. 

Unlike Amelia, Sofia does not like her gift and does her best to use it as little as possible. Something that she wishes her twin could try to understand and respect more often. She doesn’t understand why Amelia struggles to understand why she wouldn’t like her gift—she thinks it’s pretty clear why one would hate the ‘gift’ she has. 

And though Sofia would absolutely never say it she does resent the miracle and Pedro for giving this gift to her, and by extension, she somewhat resents Amelia for getting the better gift. 

The brunette has been described as socially awkward, shy/quiet/introverted, paranoid, anxious, moody/emotional, clingy, insecure, pitiful, fearful, sullen, and odd as well as weak willed. But she is also frugal, hardworking, curious, cautious, friendly, even tempered, well behaved, soft spoken, and wouldn’t hurt a fly.

She has also been shown to be willing to take abuse if it means getting to have a friend: something that her family is aware of and always hyper aware of when meeting new friends of hers. 

Sofia has been made the scapegoat by people outside of her family more than once: something that has made her fearful, anxious, and bitter due to the ill-treatment she’s received based on nothing more than her gift. 

Though Sofia doesn’t particularly like attending Auradon Prep, that doesn’t mean that she hasn’t made any friends. In fact, she has a decent amount including but not limited to: Sleepy Bergmann Jr, Baren Hood, Gesundheit Bergmann, and Crabby Bergmann. 

She also used to be friends with Scarlet and Carter Bluefairy-Carmelo but that is no longer the case due to her not liking the way they reacted to the news that the vks were coming to Auradon. Though it should be noted that unlike previous friends of hers, they were never mean to her or violent with her. 

Sofia has trouble saying no to people and has even worse trouble when it comes to standing up for herself. Though luckily for her, the rest of her immediate family and several of her extended family are more than willing to do so for her if it’s needed. Especially Amelia. 

The twins are inseparable despite their differences and would do anything for one another, and have done so. 

Such as on one memorable occasion where Sofia hid a ton of bugs in one very persistent boy’s locker after he refused to believe that Amelia wasn’t straight, and kept pursuing her. 

Or the time a few homophobes had nightmares for weeks after harassing Amelia to the point of tears not long after she and Rosana started dating until they confessed to what they’d done.

Sofia rarely converses with anyone outside of her friends and family.

She collects bugs/insects and has cases to store them. She also has a soft spot for nature's outcasts and sympathizes with them quite a bit.

Sofia prefers rock n' roll, rap, screamo, and heavy metal while Amelia is a bigger fan of pop, high hop, country, and classical—though some of their favorite songs overlap with one another's musical tastes.

They both like dancing and singing but different kinds.

Amelia finds the talking taxidermy animals in the house creepy while Sofia finds them calming, charming, and sees them as friends.

People tend to prefer Amelia over Sofia—which bothers Amelia a lot more than it bothers Sofia (that isn’t to say it doesn’t bother her at all). 

Between her grandparents Amelia is closest to Félix because she finds him less intimidating than Pepa, though she does also like spending time with her grandma just as much. 

Between her parents, she is closest to Mina because she loves the fact that she can tell her and Amelia apart. 

Between her aunts and uncles, she is the closest to Dolores because she can easily hide away with her without anyone trying to talk to her and because her aunt doesn’t like people that much either. 

Her favorite out of her dad's cousins is Luisa because she finds her to be lovely, understanding, and fun—and because she doesn’t try and make her come out of her shell. 

Out of her siblings, she's the closest to Hugo because he’s just as shy and quiet as her, and Amelia because they’re best friends. 

Out of her cousins, she is the closest to Fuega, Cyriacus, Rory, and Oscar. 

Sofia was pleasantly surprised and overjoyed that her Bisabuela Alma approves of Diego: something that none of her siblings or cousins have teased her for because they all know how important it was to her. 

Sofia has a pet vulture named Sweeney who is known for biting people.

Her best classes are Biology, Math, and Life Skills Without Magic but her absolute favorite class is Art. 

Her worst classes are  Heritage and History, Physiology, and Smiling but her absolute least favorite class is Chemistry. 

Her favorite foods are Coconut Seafood Chowder, Chip’s Grilled Cheese (Grilled Cheese With A Tomato Slice), Escargot, and Pineapple, Sardine, Onion, Green Pepler, & Artichoke Pizza.

A food she absolutely cannot stand is Eggs Florentine. 

Her favorite drinks are Root Beer, Ice Tea, and Strawberry Milk.

Her favorite snacks are Savory Sandy Cookies, Chocolate Pretzels, and Beef Jerky.

Her favorite desserts are Glowing Caramel with Fresh Cheese, Pear Tarts, and Chocolate Cobblers.

Her favorite candies are Chocolate Dalmatians, Villain Stripes, Tongue Tinglers, and Poison Apples.

Her favorite books are ‘Fever Dream’ and ‘Labyrinth Lost’.

Her favorite holidays are Halloween, Día de los Santos Difuntos, and Christmas.

Her favorite animals are vultures and Crows.

Her favorite teacher is either Grumpy or Bess the never fairy.

Her least favorite teacher is Mr. Deley, absolutely no questions asked. Though Fairy Godmother used to be a close second due to the conversation she and Sofia had after the incident where she gave those kids harassing Amelia nightmares.

Her least favorite holiday is New Years Eve because it’s Amelia’s birthday and she’s always reminded of how much more people like Amelia over Sofia. Especially when her own birthday is the day after. 

Her favorite colors are lavender, black, light blue, and white.

Her favorite school event is Field Day because she can spend it with her friends. Though Pasta Mondays are also fun and Diego always tries to make them special for her. 

Her favorite business in Auradon is ‘Jack Skellington’s Spooktacular Haunted House’: though Dr. Facilier's shop and Arcade become a close second and third once the barrier is brought down.

Her favorite radio station is ‘Doomed Isle Tunes’, which Casita showed her when she was little. 

Her favorite TV channel is ‘Courtesy Central’ now, but it used to be Evil Isle.

Her favorite shows are ‘Pretty Little Liars’, ‘Stepsister-Stepsister’, ‘Real Princesses of Charmingsville’, ‘Say Yes To The Hex’, and ‘Little Dwarfs, Big Giants’. 

Her favorite social media sites, other than Auratube, are ‘Royallr’ (Tumblr)  and ‘Scrolled-it’ (Reddit).

Her favorite Auratubers are AskAuradonPrepOfficial, The Gothic Arts (Anxelin’s Channel), The Donkey-ettes (if her cousin, Ligera, asks that is), and I Dream of Jordan (Jordan’s Channel).

Her favorite songs are ‘Fuck Your Fairytale!’ (by the Bad Apples) and ‘Warped Reflection’ (by The Donkey-ettes).

Her favorite band is ‘The Bad Apples and The Dragon Slayers’. Though she also likes Freddie Facilier’s music and would like the band Hadie eventually forms.

Her favorite video game is Swarm and Crown of Duty.

Sofia has subscriptions to “Wicked Weekly’, ‘Artist Daily’, ‘Royal Digest’, and ‘Mirror Mirror’: They’re her favorite magazines. When the barrier is brought down she also gets subscriptions to the isle magazines, ‘Belladona’ and ‘Where The Sun Don't Shine’. 

She also has access to Amelia's Bobbity and AuraJive accounts/ subscriptions. 

Her hobbies include but are not limited to drawing, painting, pottery, candle making, watercolor painting, origami, scrapbooking, papermach, reading, knitting, embroidery, photography, star gazing, sewing, taxidermy, miniature art, doll making, sculpting, quilting, dancing, cosplaying, tattooing, beta reading, needlework, crocheting, numismatics, journaling, yoga, and animal grooming.

Sofia is camera shy and gets stage fright easily, hence why she wasn’t on ‘Toddlers Without Tiaras’ with her sister.

Sofia can play the xylophone and the organ.

Sofia doesn’t like to be touched but can be very affectionate with her family and friends regardless. 

She's also not very squeamish and absolutely loves horror stories, comics, and movies. 

Her best friend, aside from Amelia of course, is Gesundheit Bergmann. 

Sofia is surprisingly good at saying tongue twisters—something even Amelia isn’t good at.

Sofia does well at school and wishes people would acknowledge that more than they do her gift or that people would at least acknowledge the stuff she’s good at, other than the stuff she can’t do or her gift. 

While she loves her sister, it does get annoying being compared to Amelia all the time even if her family and friends never do it. 

It also gets annoying having people ask where Amelia is whenever they see the two of them apart because while they do spend a lot of time together, they aren’t always together. Even if they are nearly inseparable. 

If she wasn't afraid of making people angry with her, she would rightfully point out that people shouldn't be so surprised given how much they hate her and exclude her from things they invite her sister to.

Sofia borrows/steals her boyfriend’s hoodies often (though it should be noted she never takes his favorite ones and always returns them washed). 

While Amelia volunteers/occasionally works at Isabela’s Greenhouse and her and Bubo’s Oddities shop, Sofia prefers working/volunteering at the Encanto Animal Sanctuary that their uncle, Antonio, runs with Luisa and Ryder. She enjoys helping with the animals and being able to give them comfort.

Though that doesn’t mean she never helps out at Isabela’s greenhouse and shop. She does—she just usually sticks to helping with the more…odd… plants their father’s prima makes.

Amelia has both a latex allergy and an avocado allergy, while Sofia does not. 

Sofia does better in Biology, Math, and Life Skills Without Magic than Amelia does.

Sofia knows about Amelia’s Atelophobia, Autophobia, and Kinemortophobia, and is trying to help her sister slowly overcome them so she has a more healthy fear of them. 

Though Sofia has Autophobia too. She also has Athazagoraphobia and is afraid of being hurt by others. 

This fear has made her hesitate when it comes to making decisions. 

Never ask what she likes about Diego because she’ll become a mumbling mess and sputter about how she can’t just pick one thing because he’s such a great friend, person, boyfriend, etc (according to Carlos, anyway).

Sofia and Diego can often be found together with or without Rosana, Amelia, and their other friends—you can usually find them having lunch together under the bleachers. 

She has a lot of nervous habits including fidgeting, playing with her hair, lip biting, scratching, and nail biting.

Sofia can't stand Annabelle Scorfano for the exact reasons as Amelia. She thinks the girl is a snake and if it wasn't for the fact Tito would get upset if she did, Sofia would hit her.

Sofia's first word was ‘Lo siento’: said to Tito after she accidentally knocked him over.

Between Amelia and Sofia, Sofia was the first to walk. She was also the first to talk. 

Sofia was the less colicky of the two and was the more content baby.

Sofia and Amelia have matching friendship bracelets that they made each other shortly before their gift ceremony. Sofia gets anxious when she's not wearing it or the Spectriss necklace that Diego made her.

Sofia, like Amelia and many others in their family, daydreams a lot but her daydreams usually involve Diego and their future.

These dreams can vary: either they're living in the Encanto, his kingdom, or a place in the middle of nowhere where no one can bother them ever again.

They'll have their own house if they can't stay in Casita, that's a mix of their own cultures and Auradon culture. There will be a garden with beautiful flowers and the two of them will decorate it how they please. They'll have a makeshift theatre in their backyard and an art room where they can work on their different projects. 

There will be a place in the backyard for Sweeney and a big beautiful guest room for their friends and family to visit. 

And maybe, if they want, the two of them will eventually have kids (they haven't discussed it yet because they want to take things slow). 

Sofia proofreads Diego's comics and graphic novels.

Diego made a comic called ‘The Angel of Scapegoats’, where he based the ‘monster’ on Sofia. The monster who kills abusers. 

Sofia has a copy of it framed and signed in her room: she thought it was sweet.

A lot of people think that Sofia and Diego are going to become serial killers but that's not the case at all. Neither of them could hurt a fly.

They have movie nights the second Friday of every month and game night every Saturday (if they’re at school that is).

Diego and Sofia often play board games and video games together when they’re alone. 

Their initials are carved into several desks and trees around school (Diego makes sure to check for tree nymphs aren’t attached to it and that the tree doesn’t have any historical importance before he carves into them, in his defense).

Sofia’s door has a faded light blue frame and shows her standing sideways with a frown and her hands clasped in front of her—behind her is a myriad of horrific looking things like spiders, monsters, vultures, and skulls lurking and peeking out around her carved into a much darker wood than the rest of the door. Its glow is fainter than everyone else’s.

Three of the walls inside of the room are a Blue-gray color while the fourth shows a mural of her and Diego dancing at a ball, reminiscent of Cinderella’s. Off to the side of the muriel is a pink door leading to Amelia’s room.

The floor and ceiling resembles rotting dark wood—and it's partially covered by a large, fluffy pink rug.

In the corner between the left blue-gray wall and the painted wall/mural is a large white coffin with a mattress and bedding on the inside. The bedding is lavender and cotton. The covers and bed set are white with blue-gray stripes and gold linings. The blanket is a weighted one and the pillows are made of memory foam—the most comfortable kind according to Sofia.

Adorning the bed is a small but fluffy white and gold quilt with a pattern of vultures, feathers, and crows with purple shadings that Mirabel made her when she was a baby and several stuffed animals that she holds very dear to her heart. One of which is the stuffed crow Mirabel made her when she was just a baby named ‘Sof’.

Sofia will readily admit that she can’t sleep without her baby blanket and her crow, and she’s not embarrassed to admit it because she thinks it’s understandable given what she’s been through. It’s not really something she hides so far more people know about this than people who know about the fact Amelia also can’t sleep without her own stuffed animals and blankets.

Unlike Amelia, Sofia doesn’t have the stuffed animals her bio parents gave her anymore because she gave them away. She couldn’t bear to look at them after they abandoned her.

On the right of her bed is a beautifully crafted black and lavender vulture shaped nightstand. On top of this nightstand is a picture of her and Diego at a party in their halloween costumes—Sofia was Bloody Mary and Diego was the ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Both of them are laughing, unaware that a picture is even being taken—as well as a framed note passed to her by Diego in Biology. The note reads ‘Would you like to go to the Seaside Festival with me? Check YES or NO.’ 

In the corner of the wall holding the entrance to Sofia’s room is a modest vulture enclosure and a small bat-shaped, stained glass window showing a beautiful but ominous looking sunset that her vulture can come and go from as pleases. Under the window is a door to a walk-in closet with a trapdoor inside where she hides when she gets too overwhelmed (it also makes for a good hiding spot for things she’s not technically supposed to have, like gory cosplays). 

Her room is slightly bigger than Amelia’s is. 

Across from the vulture enclosure is a stage with pink and gold curtains where Sofia practices her dance moves. There is a radio and some speakers in the corner of this stage. 

Beside her door and across from her bed is a white sheet that she watches her shows on when the projector above her bed/coffin is playing.

Next to the stage is a white and gold desk with blue and lavender flowers painted onto it: this desk holds a majority of her art supplies and finished art works: on top of this desk is a pink and white swirled pattern vase filled with Hooker’s Lips (the flowers), Naked-man orchids, and Corpse flowers—as well as the aforementioned signed and framed comic Diego created with her in mind, a paper mache module skeleton that Amelia made for her, a trophy she won in an art contest, a ribbon she was rewarded for her excellent sewing skills, and two framed photos. One of her and Sofia at Sofia’s Quinceañera—standing back to back: both of them grinning ear to ear as their partners extended their hands to dance, both with goofy smiles on their faces—and one of Sofia from when she was about six. She’s on Mina’s shoulders, laughing and trying to hide her face in the stuffed animal that Mina had won her at the carnival. 

Sofia also a black and gold vanity desk with lights that holds all her makeup. The makeup she uses for cosplay is separated from the makeup she uses for date nights and casual events. Taped to some parts of the mirror are pictures of her with her friends, family, and Diego. 

The walls of Sofia’s room are decorated with posters from her favorite bands, shows, and movies, as well as some framed honor roll and attendance award certificates and pictures of her and her family

There’s a picture of her holding a newborn José, looking panicked as he sleeps soundly in her arms. There’s another of her and Amelia playing dress up with Carlos and Hugo when they were all just barely old enough to walk. There’s one of her and Camilo dancing at someone’s gift ceremony when she was about three. There’s a couple of her and Diego on dates—one with him making a funny face at her and another of her putting up her fingers as if they were horns, causing him to choke on his drink. 

 There’s also a couple of her and her friends moments before disaster. There’s one of Sleepy Jr snoring away into his pancakes with syrup in his hair as Sofia tries to wake him up. One of Baren Hood and Crabby Bergmann glaring at Mr. Deley’s retreating back, water balloons in hand. There’s another of Diego dashing towards a mid-sneeze Gesundheit ‘Gus’ Bergmann who was carrying a towering cake (that had been a mess to clean up). Another showed Amelia and Rosana covered in flour in the kitchen of Auradon Prep. There’s a picture of the whole group on a rollercoaster. There’s even a picture of Sofia, Carter, and Scarlet at a week-long summer camp they went to when they were about 12. 

Sofia also has a laptop covered in horror movie stickers and meme stickers somewhere in her room.

Both the vanity table and the desk have large, comfy blue and lavender rolling chairs. She also has a couple of bean bag chairs stashed away in her closet in case her friends are over. 

Her backpack can usually be found hanging off one of the chairs in her room. 

Sofia’s room is her safe place. She loves her room and doesn’t know what she’d do without it. 

Her favorite animals are doves, swans, and chameleons. 

Despite the fact their rooms are conjoined, Amelia and Sofia can’t just waltz right in whenever they please. If the other twin doesn’t want them in their room, Casita will not allow them in. That way they have some privacy. 

Whenever Sofia’s gift acts up, she finds it difficult to wake from her nightmares. If she’s animating something into the real world when her gift acts up, it turns into Amelia—but instead of smiling at her or trying to comfort her like the real Amelia, it starts hurtling insults at her. Saying all the things Sofia fears her loved ones might think of her. 

When Sofia is overwhelmed or upset in her room after not talking about it with anyone (not even Casita) for a while, all the people in the pictures in her room disappear (except for herself) and her birth mother can be heard saying “Who could ever love you?” and “Look what you’ve done, you monster. Now you’re all alone.” The word ‘alone’ will echo like in that one episode in SpongeBob until she completely breaks. 

When she’s upset or alone in her room but she has been talking with people about it, Casita will rock her bed gently. It calms her. 

Out of all their children, Mina and Camilo worry about Sofia the most. This is due to some concerning self-destructive behavior she showed in the months after her birth mother abandoning them. 

Sofia also doesn’t like her birthday because it just reminds her of when her mother left. 

Sofia would never admit it but sometimes she wishes she wasn’t a twin.

Safety Net: Chapter 1

2024

The quiet departure from Mexico took so much planning, but Armando Aretas returned to Miami at last. Hiding would just stall reality this time.

His biological father, well-known Detective Mike Lowrey, pulled strings and “eased” the lifetime sentence, but Armando just needed more.

Waiting around between missions seemed pointless. If not useful, Armando might as well go back to prison and lock that damn cell forever.

Taking one rental car back to the small apartment from Lowrey, Armando didn't contact his father right away and took this much-needed shower before organizing just a few belongings here.

“I'm back.” Armando called Lowrey by the early afternoon.

“Hey, man. Really? Do you want me to pick you up from the airport?” Mike was a little surprised while answering the phone.

“Nah. Already settled here, but I'm just telling you.” Armando cleared his throat awkwardly

“You found the house? Cool. Glad you called me, too. Need anything?” Even Mike clipped words at this point.

“Maybe a side hustle?” Armando tried to frame the question easily. “I don't wanna stay around if you'll just call for work.”

“Right, I didn't think of that idea. My bad.” Mike almost whispered. “Let's see if I can help out a little bit.”

“Yeah, bye.” Armando hung up and left once more, hoping to run errands.

____

Many ran straight to the grocery store for various reasons, but Armando didn't need much, unlike other folks with children and more vacation plans.

Leaving the self-checkout, warm sunlight hit the parking lot as Armando reached that car and settled items, but one person caught his eye.

One door opens from another storefront in the shopping center.

“Thank you so much!” You beamed toward restaurant staff while carrying takeout and kept walking in the direction of your own vehicle.

To Armando, you looked cute and raved as sunlight heats up the state of Florida.

Though watching you from a distance, Armando found himself smiling in return, but pulled together and drove away, simply refusing to act weird.

Who are you? Aretas ponders during the commute back.

_____

Cooking and eating alone, gentle music played from his Bluetooth speaker. The device stood as his most expensive item beyond weapons or gear.

One call interrupted washing the dishes, but Armando picked up regardless.

“Hello?” Armando greeted the caller.

“Hey, it's me. Got something. Do you mind if we meet early tomorrow?” Mike Lowrey picked up this call again.

“No. What's going on?” The day would have Aretas occupied.

“This barbershop owner needs help.” Mike explained. “You'll get paid for basic upkeep over there. Nothing fancy.”

“Doesn't sound terrible.” Armando grounded his plans for the morning.

“Fair enough. See you tomorrow.” Mike ended the call this time.

Better than nothing. Armando thought, sleeping without dreams in preparation.

“What's up?” Cruising with style, Mike Lowrey arrived while driving his classic Porsche the next day and greeted Aretas in this lot. “We'll meet that owner first.”

“Cool.” Armando repeated the note of his estranged father.

“How was your flight?” Mike tried offering small talk.

“Good. Still getting used to the house.” Armando told the truth.

“You'll be fine.” Mike went on. “My first place wasn't always dope.”

“Wait. Didn't you grow up with money?” Aretas squinted near his father. “That's what Marcus told me.”

“Well, yeah, but your mother knocked out riches. I stood undercover and worked as her driver before you were born.” Mike cleared his throat. “Let's go.”

____

“Morning, Detective.” The barbershop owner spoke up while addressing Mike Lowrey.

“Morning, Sir.” Mike offered respect to the older gentleman. “We shared our phone calls earlier, but this is my son Armando.”

“Hello.” Genuinely kind while speaking English, Aretas offered to shake hands with the owner right now.

“Heard about you, but we don’t have much time for questions. Let me show you around.” The older man continued speaking. Even Mike Lowrey stepped back, letting this moment between two different people for once.

Let him grow and learn. That’s the only way out of this problem. Lowrey thought, quietly watching his son understand this new environment.

_____

For Armando, three important rules grounded his place at the barbershop:

Aretas needed to show up every day now, arrive on time, and avoid drama. Constant structure keeps this guy from trouble in the first place.

Clients for the barbershop varied all week and Armando would remain observant every time someone opened that chiming front door.

Sooner than later, staff knew his name and everyone laughed sometimes, offering Aretas this comradery that didn't include heartbreak.

“Have you met Mike's partner yet?” One employee chuckled while cleaning his station.

“Marcus?” Sweeping, Armando immediately rolled his eyes and workers cracked up about Detective Marcus Burnett, Mike Lowrey's famous partner.

“Oh, no! Tell us.” The employee settled down and resumed working.

“I joined special operations at the police department, but this barbershop thing is a temporary job.” Armando played up his role a little bit. “One time, Marcus accidentally set our car on fire.”

“Woah!” Voices gasped through shock and even the owner tuned in.

“Marcus didn't know that windshield wiper fluid is flammable, so we jumped out right before everything burst into flames.” Aretas nearly cringed.

“Damn!” This story just pulled everyone's attention.

“We made it out alive, but moments like that really happen.” Armando shook his head and still cleaned when the front door chimed again.

“Hi! How's everybody doing?” One greeting brightened up the entire space. “I'm just here to bring Dad some lunch.”

You walked toward that barbershop owner with the biggest smile on your face, carrying takeout.

“Hey, Sweetheart. Thank you.” The owner gently raved while facing you, his daughter.
