Modern AU thoughts and questions
I know I'm always talking about tattoos but like I can't help myself. So I'd love to hear your thoughts on if Bruno would get any prison tats 👀 perhaps they'd all be hilariously terrible and mostly hidden but every now and then one would peak out from his sleeve or maybe under his shirt/belly/back when he's stretching for something...
Actually... thoughts on Modern AU at characters with tats in general plz 👁 👄 👁
Bruno has something to say:
#I think Isabela has this tattoo#a bleeding rose that's on fire#my encanto art#encanto#encanto fanart#encanto modern au#Prisoner!Bruno#fanart#madrigal family#bruno madrigal#alma madrigal#encanto bruno#encanto alma#asks#requests#la familia madrigal#my art#my stuff

ok idk what universe or how the circumstances lead to this. but im having dad matty brainrot. maybe girlie is busy and matty has to watch the kids but hes meant to be getting a new tattoo (maybe hes supposed to go with the guys, which is why he cant cancel). but he has to bring the kiddos with him and while hes getting tattooed another artist or maybe even one of the guys doodles on kiddis arm so they can match their dad :(
fuck it, og dad!matty universe! it's the last couple of weeks of the summer holidays and you're mildly concerned about the fact your husband is planning on taking your 6 year old and 8 year old with him and the boys while they get new tattoos (maybe to celebrate an album anniversary or some shit), but when george comes to pick them up he reassures you like "it's fine! it's a nice day, we'll go into the shop one at a time, whoever's not in can just be at the park down the road with dyl and lena". a good idea in theory, and it works for a little bit while matty's playing football with his babies and giving them piggybacks and whatnot; when it's matty's turn to go in and get his tattoo, though, elena's (who's been a bit more shy and reserved lately - you think she might be a bit nervous to go back to school) little lip starts to wobble like she's going to cry, and she clings to his leg and will not let go even when adam's like "el! we'll go and get ice cream, yeah? your dad won't be long, you know that". matty has to crouch to her level like "i'll be twenty minutes, munchkin. four bluey episodes long. that's all! my big, brave girl, you'll be alright without me for that long, won't you?", and she shakes her little curly head quite vehemently - when the sniffles begin, matty just hugs her into him and softly shushes her like "alright, darling, you can come in with me. but you have to sit nice next to me, yeah? no running around in case you get hurt". so then obv dylan wants to come in, too, not because she's also upset but because she's curious about the tattoos "cos you and mum both have them but i don't know how you get them" lol; she drags ross in too, because that's bestie, and he sits with a kid on each knee and patiently explains to them what's going on while their dad gets another tattoo. the tattoo artists are really sweet - the guy doing matty's is like "oh! it's nice to finally meet the two of you, it was me who did the tattoos your mummy and daddy got when you were both born" (a.n. i have no idea what these look like actually), which impresses them a lot. but he doesn't impress them nearly as much as the other girl, who they say looks like a tattooed isabela madrigal (she laughs really hard at this and calls them adorable) and who lets them look through the sample book; they both pick out the ones they'll get when they're big enough (matty shakes his head at this, but he and ross giggle. how could they not?), and the girl gives them a couple of little temporary tattoo strips to "take home and get mum to help you put on. i think i would save them for parties, though" (matty thinks this is a genius suggestion, because he knows full well his daughters would have begged for them to be put on immediately otherwise lol). the doodling happens between dylan and elena themselves, i think - one of them gets hold of a pen and says "let me draw on you so you can match daddy?", and her sister is like "YEAH and then i can do it on you", while matty's half crying at how cute they are and half stressing about taking them home covered in pen lol. but yeah, the girls are good as gold, so good that their dad can't not treat them to an ice cream AND a tango ice blast to share afterwards, followed by another run around in the park to tire them out before it's time to go home and then pick up mummy from work. a lovely day <3

For this worldstate I've changed the names of my canon pwotagonists, for various reasons:
Raleigh has become Warden Lachlan Cousland.
He's still a S-n-S Warrior and I'm still on the bi modding life to make him Alistair's Prince-Consort. I decided that DA2 and DA:I using she/her pronouns for him and calling him Queen is based on an incident of homophobia that him and Ali decided to Own as their running gag.
*I mainly changed this one because I completely forgot about canon!Raleigh and never stopped feeling guilty about the bad associations the name must have brought up for Leliana. I also remade his face because I originally... accidentally gave him face tattoos that look uncannily like vallaslin, no thanks to the character creator.
Ashe has become Shannon Hawke.
*Not much has changed about her otherwise, she's still a Double Daggers Rogue and still romances Isabela, but the polyamory life with Isabela and Merrill is way too good to pass up, let's be honest here.
*I picked the first name because it sounded like it could be somewhat androgynous, and it is, and 'Ashe Hawke' just sounds cool to say, but unfortunately it just didn't sound Fereldan enough to me by the end of the game. Her new name basically means 'wise' if memory serves and that does fit her Class Clown-but-secretly-pretty-intelligent act (65% Purple, 23% Blue, 12% Red).
Lester has become Inquisitor Wolfram Trevelyan.
*He changed the most out of the three. His love interest also changed from a modded Blackwall to The Iron Bull. This is not a mark against Thom in any way, I'm still in love with him, but I do think Bull fits my character better (I would totally poly him/Thom/Bull/Dorian if I could, but alas) I'm even redesigning his looks when I get to Inquisition, which I didn't really do for the other two, sans the aforementioned lore correction.
*His name changed not only to sound more like it would come out of Ostwick, as well as bringing up his wolf-motif to contrast with Solas' own, which I'm gonna try to color code in-game too. He's still a Knight-Enchanter to further parallel his antagonist and to round out my Warrior-Rogue-Mage trio.

We’re Identical!
Isabela sat in the passenger seat of the car, nervously picking at her fingernails with her head bowed and her shoulders slumped. The anxiety in her chest pounds against her ribcage, causing an uncomfortable ache. Was this a good idea?
“Aye, mi amor, if you continue you that you’ll have no fingernails left!” Agustín jokes from the driver seat. He takes his eyes off the road for a second to offer her a warm smile. Isabela’s anxiety lessens a little as she chuckles at her father’s joke. A few seconds go by in silence before Isabela bites her lip anxiously and takes a deep breath.
“Pa, do you think I am making a bad decision? I mean tattoos are permanent!”
“I don’t think you are making a bad decision, amor. You have been thinking about getting a tattoo for a long time now, what has changed?” Agustín questions. It is true, for years now Isabela has been talking about how much she wants tattoos. They are pretty and she thinks they would look great on her. But, besides those feelings, she cannot help but have a seed of doubt and worry in the back of her mind.
“I-I don’t know.” Isabela huffs, slumping further into her seat and crossing her arms. “What will Abuela think? I know she said she doesn’t care if I get them, but I saw that look in her eyes! A-and what about Mama?”
“And what about her? Your mother and I have been supportive of this idea since the moment you suggested it.” Agustín states. He hums and shrugs, stopping as the traffic light turns red. “She wants you to be happy, and if a tattoo makes you happy, then she fully supports it.”
“I know, but-”
“Isabela, no one is against you having a tattoo, it is alright if you have changed your mind. No one will be upset with you.” Agustín reassures.
“I haven’t changed my mind! I’m just... I’m just...” Isabela’s voice trails off as she turns her head and looks out the window.
“You’re just nervous?” Agustín suggests. Isabela turns to look at him before silently nodding her head. Agustín’s face scrunches up in thought for a minute before a large smile appears on his face.
“What?” Isabela questions, raising an eyebrow.
“Will you be less nervous if you weren’t doing it alone?”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, what if I got a tattoo with you? Make it a father daughter thing. Would you be less nervous?” Agustin turns to her with a large stupid grin. Isabela chuckles at the idea, expecting him to laugh too, but he doesn’t.
“Wait, you are being serious?! You would get a tattoo with me?! What will Mama think!”
“I am being very serious! I wouldn’t want my daughter doing something alone!” Agustín gives her a warm smile and a gentle pat on the arm. “As for your Mama, I can talk to her.” Isabela smiles widely as the ball of anxiety in her chest quickly fades.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the tattoo parlor, Isabela holds tightly to Agustín’s hand as the tattoo artist glides the needle across her father’s arm. Agustín winces and tightens his grip around her hand. Agustín isn’t a man known for his high pain tolerance, but it is a miracle that he hasn’t fainted yet.
“Alright, you are done.” The tattoo artist leans back to admire her work. “It looks great Señor Rojas, why don’t you take a look.” Isabela slowly helps her father out of the chair and over to the fully body mirror hung up on the wall. Agustín turns his arm to the mirror and admires the new addition to his body.
Decorated on his right shoulder is a beautiful and highly detailed Sundew. He smiles brightly upon seeing it completed. Isabela walks next to him and rolls up the sleeve of her left arm, revealing an exact copy of the same tattoo.
“Aye, mi flor, we’re now identical!” Agustín jokes, making Isabela giggle.
“Pa, we are not that identical!” Isabela argues. Agustín shakes his head and waves a finger.
“Isa, you have my smile, we now have matching tattoos. And most importantly,” Agustín tucks a large strand of hair behind her ear. “You have my ears.”
“Pa!” Isabela whines, smacking his hand away and using her hair to hide her ears. Her shoulders slump as she looks around the parlor with very red cheeks. Agustín lets out a hearty laugh as he wraps an arm around her shoulders.
“Come on, let’s get ice cream before I have to tell your Mama what I did.”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First drabble in a long time! This one is a nice little fluffy moment that I have had in my head for months. I hope you all enjoy!
This a gift to two people! A Birthday gift for @ginnyweatherby and a mood booster for @aurelia11fan I hope you both enjoy!
Have a lovely day/night!
#suddendrabbles#Isabela and Agustín fluff makes my heart soar#I love them so much#It was nice to write something again#Excuse any bad grammar#I am sick and it is my birthday I can mess up if I want

i didn’t say zev because i thought someone else would LOL.. sending you zevran! and isabela :) !
Zevran
First impression: Genuinely such a good guy. A test of the Warden's willingness to trust; he comes in as an antagonist, after all, and so much hinges on what the player's reaction to this is. I think the way his backstory is revealed is perfectly executed; glimpses, here and there, between the jokes and the innuendo.
Impression now: WHAT CAN I SAY I FIND HIM COMPELLING… truly a character that tackles some universal questions about the human condition. What can you do, when you feel you've failed yourself so completely and so thoroughly that not even running to another country to die can fix it? How do you define yourself when your identity was purposefully manipulated and subjected to horrific abuse your whole life? How do you stay whole? Do you even need to stay whole? Do you need to be whole to love? To do good in the world? To be worthy of it?
Favorite moment: Antivan poetry convo is a classic, it's just so sincere. He knows he's being a bit of a fool, but it's a good exchange, if it makes the Warden smile.
Idea for a story: MMMM listen. Gestures to the entire Everything. But I will say there is a very far-off story where he accompanies Hamal in finding his mother's clan. Don't know if I ever will write it, but!
Unpopular opinion: I've said it before but I find it distasteful when people act like he was all over the Warden right away from their first meeting. Buddy, he just survived a suicide attempt.
Favorite relationship: Besides Zevran/Warden, I'd say Zevran/Isabela, Zevran/Alistair, and his friendship with Leliana is so good.
Favorite headcanon: I think it's contextually supported but I really DO think he's primarily a creative soul, I think I've written him doing poetry (canon), tattoos (canon), drawing (canonically tattoos, so he must know how to draw), and jewelry + metalwork (supported by the metal rounds, which the item description states he made himself; plus the gifts of silver and gold he receives). Sign that boy up for some art therapy is what I've done.
Isabela
First impression: She has one of the coolest intros of any DA character, honestly. But that's very much what the setup is supposed to be right? There's complexity behind that, there's a person who's suffered a ton, and doesn't have her shit figured out, and she's beautifully vibrant and relatable bc of it. She's not agonizing about it, either. Over time she comes to be patient with the questions within herself. She extends that to others. She's just lovely.
Impression now: She deserves the entire world… and a ship to sail it. <3
Favorite moment: Her convo in Act 3 when she and Hawke reunite, only because knowing they were apart for a while is so harrowing to my heart.
Idea for a story: A story where she and Merrill enjoy a festival day at the alienage :)
Unpopular opinion: Not sure if this is unpopular? But I really feel like her backstory in the comics is so out of character. I don't know suddenly I can't read…
Favorite relationship: This one is genuinely tough. But I have to say, Isabela/Fenris and Isabela/Merrill.
Favorite headcanon: I like to think she helped Kirkwall's mages escape by ship, and some of them stuck around as members of her crew.

29 and 38 for everyone, including tav and your shep! :D
(or well, choose yourself if it's too much eheheh)
Oooh, thank you for asking! I've been thinking about tattoos a lot myself lately c:
(Wholesome OC Ask Game)
29. They have a chance to get a tattoo. What would it be?
Wen: Wen has a bunch of tattoos! Zev does them for her. She'd probably just add to the sleeve she's working on. The largest part of it is a vine of flowers that resemble poinsettas. Every time she befriends a new sort of animal, she adds something of theirs between the leaves.
Maria: Something as a joke, honestly. She'd think she was really clever for it and regret it in the morning. I am going to go with Isabela's name on her left ass cheek. That seems pretty on-brand
Elowen: Already has extensive vallaslin, but I think she'd be partial to getting a tattoo of her spirit blade down one arm.
Emmaera: I feel like Emma would either go with some kind of bracelet of lavender or a phrase in Elvhen. I can see her getting something that reflects the murals seen around the Graves, too.
Salshira: Maple leaves in an array of colors across her ribs and over her shoulder, placed such that you can see the very edge of it and no more when she's wearing casual clothes.
Tavitha: Ohhh man. She also has tattoos, but they were technically left there by her god when he blessed her oath to him (so they aren't made of ink). They curl around either side of her face, grow down her neck, and terminate over her heart. I think she would really have to be persuaded to add more, but it would probably be leaves or a plant of some sort. Maybe amaranth on the backs of her thighs.
Jesse Shepard: has an N7 tattoo, but she would get a bunch of cowboy tattoos also. A lasso with some pithy saying in it, probably. She's partial to Johnny Cash, so almost certainly song lyrics of his.
38. Find one quote that would make them feel at peace.
Oooh okay, I'm going to throw that into a separate post bc my lunch break is up and I want to track down some good ones. I will tag you when I have a chance to finish this!
#ask game#oc ask response#ask response#arianwen tabris#maria hawke#elowen lavellan#emmaera lavellan#salshira lavellan#tav tag#jesse shepard#i would save as a draft but i don't want it to disappear!#arrrgh forgive the typos my bluetooth keyboard t only works half the time

@vaguely-concerned Part 4, Marinette Hawke
5. Do they have any tattoos? If so what are they and do they have any special meaning?
She wanted to get one of Chasind’s more bold patterns (one that kinda looks like a tower) on her face when Leandra told her she needs to stop wearing kaddis after they reclaimed the estate to better blend in with local nobles. Leandra decided that kaddis can at least be removed and dropped the topic.
She does get one eventually - after Isabela confesses her love for Marinette they both get drunk afterwards and storm the nearest tattoo parlor in the port. While Isabela got herself something both sentimental, bawdy and pretty non-committal for those who doesn’t know the context, Marinette ended up with the sappiest mark possible - lover’s knot with Isabela’s name surrounded by little hearts over it, on her chest over her heart. The morning after Isabela was both mortified, amused and flattered, and Marinette refuses to regret it.
8. Do they collect anything? If so what and why?
Marinette would hardly admit it but she likes cool rocks - not necessarily gems, just some rocks with a nice pattern/texture or even flaw. She can’t really explain why she likes them, they just scratch some part of her brain just right. She tried to start a collection when she was still a child, but during a hectic moving out it turned out that bunch of rocks from the riverbed are absolutely non-vital to family’s well-being and valuing them over speed of getaway and endangering everyone by throwing a tantrum about them being thrown away, as Malcolm delivered in no uncertain terms, is absolutely unacceptable and would be punished according to the gravity of misdeed if it ever happens to repeat. She never tried again, but curiously during her time in Kirkwall she kept picking up various gems, pouches of pebbles, and other rock-like formations. To anyone asking she claims to carry them for emergency barter/trap disarming/pocket dust etc. Her inner circle thinks it’s cute and keeps dropping cool rocks her way.
37. Are they religious? If so do they have a strong sense of faith, are they uncertain, or are they somewhere in between?
Rather no than yes - she is inevitably culturally Andrastian, but apart from what she unavoidably learned about the Chantry and it’s teachings as Fereldan and Leandra’s daughter, she refuses to interact with the Chantry beyond the absolute minimum required by the situation (she has no respect for it and considers it as “something that is threatening my family” i.e. enemy). As for the faith, she’s been taught to not put anything on Maker’s/Andraste’s mercy and so prefers to think she is the one in charge of her life and whatever is going on in it, with all the god and bad things that come with this mindset.
39. Would they ever crash a wedding?
Definitely if Isabela/Merrill/Bethany/Anders asked her. By herself - possible, tho most likely unintentionally - her presence and general vibes inevitably alter the atmosphere of any event she attends.
50. What is your favorite thing about them?
She’s sooo unwell!! She can be terribly cruel and violent - and at the same time she is gentlest and sweetest if you manage to sneak into her “family”. She has no idea how to function as her own person outside of her “protector of the family” role Malcolm molded her to. She let Isabela run away with Tome of Koslun. She seriously considered giving Kirkwall to qunari and running away with family. She influenced Isabela enough for her to change her mind and return to Kirkwall. Her politics and worldview is shaped by those around her with very little input from her. She takes her anger and fear out on absolutely unrelated people. She is such a bitch. She needs so much therapy. I love her.

For Cooper: 7 and 8 for essentials, 9, 10 and 11 for life, 2 for party? 😁
This got a bit long, but anyway, it's time for this asshole and his incredible sideburns. The man who looked at Anders and thought "I could make him worse" and somehow managed to succeed.
How do they dress in their downtime, while fighting, in formal settings, etc.
Cooper takes a lot more care in his appearance than it seems. Spends a lot of time making sure he looks the exact right amount of tortured and disheveled, cutting out sleeves on his shirts, tossling his sideburns just right to be just the perfect amount of scraggly.
If anything, he gets worse in formal settings, because he needs to convey to everyone around just how angry he is to be here and just how much contempt he has for the whole affair. If he could show up to fancy parties for Kirkwall’s nobility buck naked and screaming, he would. He can’t do that without getting arrested for public indecency, so he’ll have to stick to sackcloth jorts and yelling to get himself off the invitation lists.
This doesn’t apply quite as much with what he wears when he’s anticipating a fight. Chain mail, leather. There’s a reason people don’t guess that he’s a mage, but do guess that he’s up to crime.
Do they have any notable scars, markings, tattoos, etc.?
Fewer scars than you’d expect, Anders loses his mind trying to heal him up after a long day of battle and blood magic, but he’s still got a few. He avoids the wrists because that can get out of hand very quickly and that’s where Templars look, so he’s got some scarring on his fingertips and his lips that Anders wasn’t able to catch or do anything about.
The markings on his face aren’t tattoos, they’re makeup and he has to reapply it every day.
I do think at one point Isabela talked him into getting a tattoo and that’s why he’s got a skull on his bicep. It means nothing except that skulls are badass.
What do they do with their free time? Do they have any vices?
Is there a Thedosian equivalent of mahjong? Because there’s definitely some kind of intensely competitive gambling game that he plays with a whole bunch of little old ladies who all love and adore him and talk a lot of shit about Gamlen, because he used to be part of the group, but he got kicked out after a messy breakup with one of the old ladies. This doesn’t stop them from adoring his nephew. Cooper’s so much nicer than his uncle! What a charming young man! He probably has invited Varric and/or Isabela to their games, but they were both way too thrown off by the fact that he’s got this whole other friend group of elderly women who love to gamble in addition to the friend group they’re in, who are all bisexual fugitives who are absurdly toxic to each other.
His vices are all the crimes he does, and while he does enjoy it, most of it is for survival and to get rich quick. Also being absurdly toxic to his fellow bisexuals. He is a Dragon Age 2 character, after all.
Have they ever been seriously injured? What was the outcome?
His approach to blood magic is incredibly risky, even by blood magic standards. The fact that he’s self-taught means that he’s not super efficient, and his general tendency to push himself too far can get really, really bad when that involves how much blood loss he’s willing to inflict on himself. Sometimes this goes too far.
The worst it’s ever been was during the duel with the Arishok. His play was to get hit a lot to draw an enormous amount of blood that he could then call on to rip the Arishok’s veins out and bleed him from the inside. It was a very, very risky move, he ended up losing fingers in the process and nearly an entire arm, and once he got enough to get the power he needed to cast one, huge spell, he passed out. People watching thought they both died, especially since they didn’t recognize it as blood magic, just an unusually gory knife fight.
Anders had to squirrel him away to treat him and hide him from the templars. Weeks later, Varric had to track them down to convince them that a: everyone thinks Hawke’s dead and b: everyone wishes he wasn’t because they think he’s a great hero. Cooper was appointed Champion of Kirkwall at his own funeral.
Do they prefer being stealthy or charging head-on?
There are two strong, but contradictory impulses within him: one to hide, keep quiet, keep out of danger, and one to explode the organs of anyone who could even potentially threaten him.
I’d describe him as skittish more than anything else. He’ll start with stealth, but the second he gets uncomfortable or impatient, he will attack. He is very afraid of getting caught, and whatever method he can take, he’ll go with.
Which companions (or advisors) are they closest friends with? Who do they respect?
He agrees with Anders completely on all the things that matter, and the things they argue over don’t change the fact that they share the same goals. He admires Anders’ idealism and wishes desperately that he could match it. He’d do anything to make sure he never loses it. Anything.
I’m going to say that he dates Merrill briefly in Act 1, but she ends up deciding that they’re better off as friends. Once he gets over the sting of rejection, he realizes she was right. “We both like blood magic” is a poor foundation for a romantic relationship but a great one for a platonic one. The two of them study together, exchange ideas and techniques, generally have a blast. He’s not overly interested in history or stories or religion or anything that can’t help him in the concrete right now (that’s part of why things didn’t work out between them) but hey, it’s nice that she’s got something that makes her happy. Even if they’re so, so boring.
He’s not super close with anyone else. Cooper is kind of a surly asshole who keeps most people at a distance. If you get too close to people, they can be used to hurt you. The only person Cooper is willing to let hurt him is himself.

I was tagged by @irisopranta so here's a little trivia!
Share your wallpaper: It's... just the default MSI wallpaper (I have commitment issues lol.) I could probably use a screenshot or a commission of a suitable dimensions, but meeehhhhh.
My mobile wallpaper is this Dragon Age Tarot-style commission from @needapotion
I've been thinking about changing it, but I'm not sure to what.
The last song you listened to: The Sharpest Lives by My Chemical Romance (I mostly listen to music while driving. Shockingly this song is not on any of my many playlists)
Currently reading: Uuuuhhhh I don't read as much as I should, but when I do I've been bouncing between:
The Death and Life of Schneider Wrack by Nate Crowley, which I really enjoy but have been trying to finish for like a year and half (it's not long i'm just lazy). An inventive nautical zombie romp with a dash of social commentary.
Asian Ghost Short Stories: An Anthology of New and Classic Tales. The intersection of folklore, horror, and culture was the topic of both of my undergrad senior papers, though they mostly focused on Japan. I've already read most of the traditional Japanese stories in this book, but I don't know very much about ghosts in other Asian Countries, so it's been an interesting read! I was also drawn to it because it contains translations of new short horror stories by unpublished Asian authors.
The Black Bestiary: A Phantasmagoria of Monsters and Myths from the Phillipines by Budjette Tan (Author), David Hontiveros, Kajo Baldisimo (Illustrator), and Bow Guerrero (Illustrator). See above. This book is really interesting, because it's an illustrated compedium of myths and monsters, but the entries are written from the perspective of modern-day monster hunters recording their experiences in a journal. Apparently it's a sequel to a book called The Lost Journal of Alejandro Pardo, which I'll have to pick up sometime. The art is very cool. One of the illustrators, Kajo Baldisimo, is the main illustrator of a comic series called Trese that semi-recently received an animated adaptation with audio available in both English and Tagalog. I've been meaning to consume both of these at some point as well.
Last Movie: Uuuuuhhhhhh.... I'm not much of a movie person, so I don't really remember, but I guess maybe Dune?
Craving: Curry and rice (I'll make some the next time everyone else is out of the house >_>)
What are you wearing right now? Black leggings and a sweatshirt with the word "Catnip" over a collage of images of cats and slogans like "Cheap Thrills" in the style of an old-school Reefer Madness poster.
How tall are you: 5'4 (164.56 cm) (People always say "I thought you were taller!" Including someone i worked with in-person for more than a month-and-a-half.)
Piercings: Just the boring regular ear piercings.
Tattoos: None, sadly. See: fear of commitment
Glasses? Contacts? Neither.
Last drink: Ice water (I'm trying to drink more water, but I'd rather gargle metal shavings than drink room-temperature water.)
Last show: Hmm this one was also a while ago. I think it was Dragon Age: Absolution.
Last thing you ate: Pork roast (bleh) and potatoes for dinner.
Favorite color: This is a cop-out but I like lots of colors. I guess maybe green, orange or red? But I also like white, black, most shades of blue (navy can get fucked), purple, yellow, pink, silver/gray, etc.
Current obsession: FFXIV
Unrelated obsession: Dice! I love hand-made ttrpg dice sets! They're so pretty and unique! Sadly, not playing in any actual games has not put a damper on my bankruptcy-inducing dice habit.
Any pets: Two cats (Hansel and Gretel) and a dog (Isabella).
Do you have a crush on anyone? Nah.
Favorite fictional character: This one is really hard... There are probably so many I'm forgetting. The Justice of Toren/Breq from the Imperial Radch series, Matthew Swift from the Matthew Swift series, Alistair from DA:O, Anders, Fenris, and Isabela from DA2. Garrus from Mass Effect. Esteem from FFXIV, Alisaie from FFXIV (though I also really like Haurchefant, Y'shtola, Hilda, Ysayle, and Fordola.)
Honorable mentions to the characters I used to have keychains of on my pen case (I would try to encourage shier, nerdier students to talk to me by watching/playing things that were popular with high schoolers and putting my favorite character from the media on my pen case, which students would get very excited about): Chuuya from Bungo Stray Dogs, Childe from Genshin Impact, and Cu Chulainn from various Fate-related media.
The last place you traveled: Uhhhh I guess my last major trip was to... here (America)! My last "vacation" was to Sapporo (that was right before the pandemic.) I do occasionally take shorter day trips to towns around my area, but the furthest afield I've been recently is Grand Marais in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
I will be in Las Vegas for the FFXIV Fan Expo this summer though!
Tagging: I think everyone I interact with has already been tagged in this, but if you haven't done it and want to here is your unofficial tag!

Isabela lore!!!
wc: 356
tw: very brief mentions of torture (let me know if i missed one im quite tired hehehe)
Scared and freshly atoned, Isabela was half shaking when Joseph sent a member to fetch her for a private conversation. Thinking back on it, Isabela still feels her skin crawl.
The first thing he said was "Our gift from God." Then proceeded to explain the situation: John was too hands on with some followers and asked what he should do with his brother.
Isabela felt herself feel a little less nervous. She mentioned how old kings would marry their children off. Not that it'd be for one reason or another but just to bring connections in or to get it over with. Saying "If he's a problem, then show your power. You're the prophet, you could ask God to show you to the right person."
He stared so unnervingly, like he wanted her to slip up.
"Thank you."
And just like that Isabela was married off to his brother. According to Joseph, their Gift from God was for this very problem. Of course it was her. To solidify her spot here, to traumatize her more, the nickname blaring through her skull, "Gift from God."
It makes her sick.
And for a minute she really tried. She would pretend to be happy, to enjoy a married life. She'd smile and laugh around the family, pretending that Joseph was so right and so smart for pairing the two together. To mold herself into a caricature of the domesticated brain dead housewife.
But every time she laid eyes on John she would feel sick. From his feeling of his hands on her to the way he looked at her. He didn't have to do anything wrong, either. Everything reminded her of her atonement. Looking at his eyes reminded her of when he'd pry his way into her head to learn her sin. Looking at his hand reminded her of how they were so blood-soaked. She stays far from his bunker, the memories waft the scent of blood and metal into her nose.
John Seed made her skin crawl. He didn't even tattoo her, he carved the word 'envy' with a box cutter. Similar to the ones the family has.

Soulmates [Camilo x gn!reader] pt 1
Summary: Soulmates exist, so why does it feel like you two aren't meant to be?
Warning: injury, swear words. angsty??
Note: this fic was inspired by the peter parker x reader "ugh" in the wattpad, that fic was years ago, but I still remembered it 'cause it's one of my favorite stories. He/him for camilo, they/them for reader.
Created: January 26, 2022
Published: February 28, 2022
Part 1 part 2
Soulmates exist, and you can find them in so many different ways.
First, we have the red string. Just like his cousin had: Mirabel and her best friend, this also goes with his cousin: Luisa and their friend who works in the library. Second, in your body, the first words you say to each other are marked, just like his cousin Isabela and the farmer's daughter.
Thirdly is the last words you say to each other are marked on your body, just like his Abuela Alma and Abuelo Pedro. Fourth is feeling each other's feelings, like his Mamá and Papá.
Fifth is a tattoo marked in a part of your body like his sister: Dolores and Mariano, same ones like his tía Julieta and tío Agustin.
Unfortunately to Camilo, he doesn't experience any of those. He can't see any red string at his pinky like it is supposed to be, He can't see any words marked on any part of his body, he doesn't feel any emotions that are not from him.
Any sign from them, anything. His heartache at the thought of it, he has a soulmate, he knows it. The boy is determined for the past few days after his 16th birthday.
The shape-shifter looked for other signs like his friends have, like: feeling the same pain, or the time and date is marked when you will meet them.
Maybe his soulmate's still haven't on the right age so that's why he still doesn't have a mark? Or any string? Maybe it's another sign, something that's not taken by his family? Maybe... but after years of waiting, still nothing.
He was almost certain, that he doesn't have a soulmate. He'll be all alone for the rest of his life. Just like his Tìo Bruno.
~
It felt like they were doing it on purpose, not a day goes by without you feeling a single pain from them. You can feel your ribs ache yet no bone cracked, you clench your chest as pain roam all over.
Gasping for air, gripping tightly at the side of the table as your cousin rushes over to you, distress written on his face, doing his best to help you, to his dismay all he can do is comfort you.
It was nothing new, you'll never get used to something like this. It's embarrassing how you just suddenly crouch down in public, as you try to endure the torture.
Oh, how you despise your soulmate.
Do they even think about how much pain you are in right now? Or every time they decided to jump from the second floor??
The agony stopped like it was never there in the first place. Your breath, as relief washed over you, "Mierda, you gotta find that huevón, [name]!" Your cousin: Manuel, exclaimed. Frustrated that he can't do anything about your situation. "They can't keep being reckless, you're also getting hurt!"
"I'm fine, it's gone now." You breathe out, finally standing from your spot at the side. Rubbing your chest, as you lightly pant.
"For now," the boy runs a hand through his hair. He can't help but be furious, he hates seeing his close family suffering, "you can't live like this for forever, it's been 2 years..."
2 years. You've been suffering for two years.
The sudden pain arrived unexpectedly. It was the day after your 16th birthday, thinking about your father's words once again for the nth time for the day. Your family has always been against soulmates, they can't tell you who to love and who you can't.
As you were walking alongside Manuel by the bridge, the sunshine above you as he assist you with the supplies you need to the house, you instantly felt your leg numb by a second before you feel the most painful thing happen to your leg, you can barely stand. Manuel is so worried about you that he carried you to Juieta as fast as he could, but before you two could make it to her stall, the pain stopped.
It's been like that ever since, random pain kept appearing, here and there. You don't know why they're doing this, you never knew.
You're scared, terrified even. No warnings, no signs, nothing. It just happens unexpectedly, even in the middle of the night, you can feel someone hit you from the back of the head.
What are they even doing? Are they part of some sort of circus? Why are they getting hurt all of the sudden?
♡♥︎♡
Yesterday was a bummer, your cousin is more determined than ever to find the person who's causing you so much pain. You consider him lucky for having a mark on his back instead of feeling the torture you're having.
The morning sky is beautiful, goofy cloud shapes here and there as the rays of the sun hits the crown of your head, reading peacefully by the porch of your house as you sip on your Avena Colombiana, as a good start of the day.
Turning the page, careful not to give yourself a papercut, you felt a scrape on your left knee, but no wound is seen. Your other toe hurts, so you assume they tripped while running.
They're ruining my day already. You had enough of waiting, and want to take action yourself. You did nothing to deserve the pain. Taking revenge, you purposely burn your tongue, with your hot beverage, wincing at the feeling of it, but give you slight contentment at the thought of hurting them as well. They deserve it.
Not a moment later, the side of your face burns so bad, that you yelp at it and almost drop your cup. It feels as if their face is being scraped on the ground, both of your palms are next, then your right elbow, they hurt so bad you can't help but feel tears flooding your eyes as you rub the ones that sore the most.
Are they serious, right now!? Just after your little revenge, they will give you a much painful one?? How cruel.
You massage your hands together, trying to ease the prickle of it you were feeling. You continued to read, frown plastered on your face, as your eyes trailed along with the words. Angry thoughts cloud your head. You can't even fight back, so how can they be your soulmate when they don't care about you!
In the streets of Encanto, a boy around your age is running at the speed of volt. Camilo is trying to do his cousin a favor by taking care of the little kids in town, now they all teamed up and chase him for "cheating" when he's just good at the games they played, as they announced they are it while Camilo is the only one they have to tag, to win.
A pant is heard as a certain shape-shifter hid by the corner of your house, his curls stick to his forehead from the sweat. His body is straight as a pole, like a chameleon in camouflage, moving his side to the side, glancing if the kids are there. He let out a big sigh of relief when the kids chasing him pass, leaning at the wall him, finally relaxing from the chase he just had.
"What a lovely morning, isn't it?" Camilo greeted, smiling warmly once he noticed you, fixing his posture and appearance quickly, despite his bruised face, and red-stained sleeve, you guess his bleeding elbow, he's oddly happy. His words are pronounced funny in some way, it's like he's avoiding using his tongue.
"Aye, Santa rosa! Are you alright? Señora Julieta is kinda far from my house, here have some rest!" Taken aback by his appearance, you quickly lead him to one of the seats by your porch, worried about the Madrigal's wound, but he swiftly assured you.
"Oh it's okay, I'm fine! More than fine, that is!" His grin never left his face, still breathing heavily, you giggled at how he spoke.
"Funny how you talk like that." You stated, the shape-shifter mimicking your smile, also laughing lightly, shaking his head. "You're all bruised up too! I'll be back, I'm just gonna get the kit, then I'll help to Señora."
Not waiting for his reply, you dash inside for the kit, just to disinfect his injuries, leaving Camilo by himself. What a caring person, how come he never met you before?
The boy examined his cuts, whimpering a bit when he moved his arm. He's more worried about his Soulmate though, they got hurt too because of him. How will they react when they met him?
"Sorry for waiting. Let's clean that before you go." You exit to your door, putting a little bucket full of water, as well as a small basket made of pure wheat straws, as you turn your chair in front of him, before sitting. Inside is a bunch of bandages, a small piece of clothing, and a little bottle of an unknown substance. "Early in the morning, you're already beaten up," Gesturing to bring his bruised face forward, which he gladly does.
Groaning a bit at you pat the now wet clothing to his face, closing his eyes as he does so. Your gaze fell on his cheeks dusted with freckles as you clean the injury before you catch a glimpse of his emerald-like eyes, smiling in appreciation at you. "Thank you, by the way." Mirroring his smile, you ignore the little sting on the side of your face.
It's quite peculiar.
"Don't mention it," you carefully move to his elbow, gently lifting it before folding the helms of it, revealing a huge scratch on it. "Aye, that's a big one. Do you mind telling me, how did this happen?"
"It's a funny story really, my Soulmate accidentally burn their tongue." His words cause you to halt, heart pounding, but recovered quickly and get back to work.
His Soulmate did what?
Camilo continued, strangely animated by the actions of the person he's betrothed to. "it caught me off guard, and tripped! That's why I hurt my face and elbow. My hands got hurt too, but I think it's fine," looking at his palms, seeing a few scratches.
Is he being serious, right now?
You started to connect the dots about what's happening. You analyze his body, from the top of his head to the bottom of his foot.
The boy's face has a huge scratch on his cheek, his curly hair covering up the rest. His right elbow, the one you're treating right now, you can feel how painful it is as you clean it. You experimentally press the clothing hard, your eyes expand as you put things together. Glancing at his left knee, his pants (that has a bit of dirty over them) is shielding the wound, but you can feel the pain it's causing.
He can't be...
You're only hafted sure about it, but how can you prove that's he's your soulmate? Your eyes trailed back to the hot beverage of Avena Colombiana that is still chilling beside your book.
"I'm alright!" He exclaimed once he noticed you were observing at his wounds. "I just hope my soulmate-"
What caused him to stop talking is how you suddenly grabbed your hot beverage and dumped them in your hand.
"Ugh!" You both winced in pain, your hand burns so bad, but you were more focused on his reaction. As he held his untouched hand in agony, waving it to soothe the pain. Finally, click on what just happened. The shape-shifter's gaze fell on you, his eyes filled with hope and admiration.
He's my soulmate.
They're my soulmate.
You, on the other hand, are furious.
"you're my—"
"So you're the one who's behind all of this?!?" Your sudden rise of voice caught him off guard, as you stood up. The motion causes the chair to scrape when it slides. Why are you angry?
"Behind what? What do you mean?" Following your actions, he also stood up, approaching you.
"Behind all of the torturing!" Camilo fell silent for a bit, not knowing how to respond. "Of all the pain, you've been causing me for the past 2 years!"
"2 years...? You've been- you've been feeling the same pain as I am for the past 2 years??" So you've been here, all this time... he has a soulmate. He has a soulmate!!
You scoff at him, grabbing your things running past him, before storming inside the house. "I can't believe this!" You mumbled to yourself, the boy heard it loud and clear.
"Wait! Can I at least know your name?" The curly-haired called out, trying to stop you from taking another step by grabbing your arm but failing to grasp it.
"Tsk, why do you even care?? You've been going around hurting yourself, I feel the pain too!" Your glare pierces through his skin, as you repeatedly point at your chest. "Do you even know how scary it is to suddenly feel your ribs stab your lungs, without even warning!? Not a day goes by without worrying if you're free from it!"
Camilo stood, frozen from his spot. He just met you, at least give him a chance. The heart in his chest-beating rapidly, as he stared back at your scowl. "Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't-"
"Damn right you're sorry, I don't want to see your face, ever again!"
With that, you slammed your doors closed, the structure shook at the impact. Leaving a stun Madrigal by your porch, mouth agape at the events that happen unfold.
♡♥︎♡
Camilo lay on his bed, staring at his ceiling, deep in thought. Arms support the back of his head, as he rethinks what had happened. His mind trailed back to you, he can't believe it. He has a soulmate all this time.
You're here all this time...
After years of thinking that he doesn't have a soulmate, there you are. He doesn't want to lose you, never again.
How did he not know you? Not even your name. You're a very nice person, he knows it! Offering him a seat, cleaning his wounds, you have the gentleness touch he ever receive from a girl outside his family, You're worried about him, and still are! When he passes by your house again at noon attempting to see you at least. All that he saw is a drink of Chicha, with a small note. "I feel bad for pushing you, but I'm still mad. here's a drink, mi tia likes to drink it whenever she's stressed." He doesn't need a name for it, he knows it's from you. He'll keep the note forever.
You're sweet and kind, you only change once you realize he's your soulmate.
Your angered face flashed back, as his heartache. He hurt you, and he can't forgive himself. He needs to be more careful, and not hurt you.
Hehe, they look like an angry chihuahua, and an adorable one too!
Note to himself: not get hurt, and befriend you. It's the least he can do.
The boy is beyond happy when he finally felt the pain that's not caused by him. But sadden knowing you're annoyed with him, so much that he doesn't want to see his face.
Unless it doesn't have to be his face!
Tomorrow came, as you work by the wheat fields. The sun is mocking you with your hardships, as you swing your sickle, wanting to finish the chore as much as possible. Wiping your sweat with the back of your hand, cursing yourself when you feel more of your hair stick on your skin, cheeks flushed from exhaustion. A familiar hand offers you a towel, as the face of your cousin beamed when you greeted him. "Manuel! Good to see you, didn't think you'll be here. I thought you hated the heat?"
The boy listened as you folded the towel with a careful hand, before wiping your forehead as well as your neck, he looked away at your action, red dusting his cheeks. "Heh, I'm not Manuel..." the shape-shifter stated, still looking down.
You throw him a confused expression, before realizing what he meant. Frowning at him, "what do you want Madrigal." You inquired, though it's more like a statement, swinging your tool to cut the wheat, ignoring the boy.
"I just want to get to know you! That's all!" Flinching when you professionally sliced the plant. Gulping when meeting your glare, but he won't give up.
"Did my sentence 'i don't want to see your face, ever again' not enough for you?" You pointed your tool at him, the blade barely touching his skin which made his breath hitch. The boy's hands are up, showing you that he wants no harm.
"It's not my face though, it's your cousin's!" Camilo smiled sheepishly, but look away when your glare hardens. "Come on, let's start over..." He slowly lowered the tool, gently touching the slides that are not sharpened, you can see the uneasy expression he's giving to the tool. Thankful that you didn't slice his throat. He introduced himself, "I am Camilo Madrigal, son of Pepa and Félix Madrigal! Nice to meet you!" The shape-shifter offers you his hand.
You had your eyes narrowed at his offer but took it. Giving it a rough shake, that you can feel your other hand tingle. "[Name] [lastname]." You utter sternly before you went back to work, not wanting to feel his existence anymore.
"[Name], huh? It suits you!"
"Piss off, Madrigal."
"No need to be formal, Camilo is fine."
"Ugh, has anyone ever told you, how annoying you are!?"
"Yes actually, you and Dolores!"
You two talk for the whole day, it's more like one-sided conversations. Where ever you go, he goes as well. He still does choirs but, he will find a way to speak to you again, much to your dismay. He's still in your cousin's form, as he talks to you, which is kinda weird.
Not gonna lie, Camilo is enjoying himself. He's finally talking to his soulmate! The one he's been waiting for in his entire life. You're insulting him though, with every chance you get. He doesn't mind, of course, your voice sounds lovely, even when they're full of threats.
"Great talking to you!"
"Can't say the same!"
The shape-shifter waved at you for the last time before taking his leave when he was sure you got to your porch safely. You wave back at him, not wanting to be rude considering he did escort you home.
You rub your face in exhaustion, watching his figure retreat for the night. He's not as bad as you thought he is, not as bad as any of your family said about your soulmate. Growing up with a family that does not believe in soulmates, made you think that these things are just something for others to have hope for when there isn't.
"The universe doesn't tell you who you need to be with, you do." your father's word rang in your head, as Camilo's silhouette faded into the distance, rethinking what he said to you when your mother left for another man. "but if you want to be with them, then go for it, I won't stop you. I just don't want you to make the same mistake as I am."
All soulmates do is bring you pain and distraction with the important things you need to take care of. Ignoring the slight pain in your chest, you got inside the house.
The shape-shifter went home grinning like a Cheshire cat, everyone noticed of course. He's never been this cheerful ever since he found out he doesn't have a soulmate. No one knows the reason for the sudden joyful attitude, except his sister: Dolores, who can't help but smile at his state.
"How is your day, mijo?" Félix inquired, all ears for the news as he sweep on the floor. He wants to know what happens and why his son is all love-struck.
"Wow, Cami'. Who made you all smiley-smiley, eh?" Isabela teased as she pass by, holding a bunch of colored bombs.
"Guess who I met today!" The shape-shifter exclaimed, trying to contain his excitement.
"Santa??" Antonio asked jumping into his brother's arms who caught him, as he imitated his grin. He can see the stars in his eyes.
"No, but it will be cool if it's Santa though! Hehe," he lightly chuckles, tickling the little one by the neck. "I met my soulmate!"
"Wooah, I wanna meet them too!"
"Soulmate?" His father throws his questioning look, but the smile is still there. stopping his sweep for a moment.
Years ago the teen admitted with tearful eyes to his family that he can't feel nor see any signs of having a connection with his soulmate. Félix can't help but feel sorrow for his eldest son, but now seeing him this happy makes him feel the same joy.
"Yea, I talked to them all day! They're a lovely person, Papá!" He strolled forward while putting his little brother up to his shoulders. The grin never left his face. "They told me that they feel the same pain as me for the past 2 years!"
"Aye, look at that! Pepita, our son finally found his one and only!" The man said to his wife, who happen to be reading a sad story in a book. The rain above her stopped and look at her family, heart-melting at the news she just heard.
"Aww, that's so wonderful mijo!" She showered him with cheek kisses as her sons both giggled at their mother.
"Amor, you still haven't changed." Her lovable husband reminded, giving her a soft look.
"How did this happen? When are we gonna me-", pepa's words stopped when she realized something. "hold on, how are you sure that they're your soulmate?" She questioned, slightly pulling away from her son.
She will be furious if someone took advantage of his son's desperateness of having a soulmate and break his heart. She would have any of it.
"Uh, hehe... they hurt themselves and I got hurt too, so that's how I met them." Camilo played it off, leaving out the parts where you yelled at him and blame him, which is something he's technically responsible with. The boy didn't want you to have a bad first impression with his parents.
A rainbow glows brighter, above them. Good thing it's night, or the sun with shine brightly and cause some heat.
~~
"Buenos Dias, [name]!" The shape-shifter greeted you, from across the street. Waving his arm up, with a radiant smile.
Flinching at the sudden voice, gripping at the basket tightly in your hands, you looked back immediately at the boy. Glaring at his beaming face, you gestured your hand to shut up, and signaling him that your Father, who was with you the entire time and witness the whole thing.
Did he give a damn? No.
His actions cause many people to look at you, questioning if you're the one Camilo's talking to. As a result, you tried to hide with the basket you've been carrying.
"A friend of yours?" Your father asked, lightly grinning at your embarrassed expression.
"More like an acquaintance, I hate that guy." You mutter under your breath at the last part of your sentence, grimacing as the boy approaches you both.
"Ah, señor [last name]! Buenos días to you too!" The curly-haired playfully salute the man, erupting a chuckle from him. "I'm here to assist your child, señor!"
"Are you sure, you two aren't friends?" The older [last name], giving you a side glance. A little suspicious about your guy's relationship.
"I'm sure, papá." Nodding your head, you secretly pinch your sides, knowing that Camilo can feel it too. "A Hundred percent."
"Ack-!" The said boy yelps, moving his body as if he's avoiding something when nothing is touching him. "Hey, that's hurts..." he whined at you, pouting as he gently rubbed his side.
Your breath hitch at the shape-shifter's choice of words, glancing at your father who has narrowed his eyes at the both of you. You wince at yourself for forgetting to tell him since you're too busy complaining to your cousin about your soulmate.
"Hurts? What hurts?" The older man's eyes shifted between the two of you making you panic.
"Oh, they didn't tell you?" You'll find it adorable how Camilo tilts his head in confusion if you aren't in a situation like this. "I'm [name]'s so-"
Swift as a light, you cover his mouth with your hand, blocking his words, "nothing, pá! I need to- we need to go now, bye-bye!"
The [last name] watched you as you, dragged the boy away, pinching his ear and whispering things at him. Making him assume you two are more than just an acquaintance.
"What do you think you're doing?! Are you insane??" You harshly whispered, your ear tingling at the pain you're giving to the green-eyed.
"Your dad doesn't know we're soulmates, why didn't you tell him?"
"I couldn't! He will kill you!"
"What?? I didn't do anything!"
"If he knows you're the one who's behind all my pain, you'll be dead by the end of the day!" making sure you leave a few parts. Letting go of his ear, slightly rubbing it to ease a bit of soreness from it. "Now go do your own thing, and leave me alone."
"Nah, I'm good. I'll help you again like I did yesterday! Let's go!" He dragged you to do your chores for the day, with you groaning, not wanting to go with him.
As weeks go by, his constant bugging you is getting on your nerves. He'll pop out of nowhere, he's trying to befriend you badly, and even try to explain his situation why he always got hurt.
Why do kids like it when someone face planted? He doesn't know, but still, does it, because not only he get to make the children laugh, he also got an excuse to eat as much food as he wants. He's trying not to get hurt again for you, he doesn't want you to hate him even more than you do, right now.
You hate to admit it, but you enjoy it. You enjoyed his company, his jokes, his caring attitude, his joyful personality, all of it.
But there's something that's always been at the back of your head. You're his soulmate.
You two are meant to be.
But what if this soulmate thing didn't exist, would he still like you? Would he still be your friend?
He didn't care about you until he learned you were his.
You hate it. You hate your overthinking brain for coming up with something like that, but what if soulmates don't exist. Would he still like you?
No, of course not.
You hate how he made you feel butterflies, you hate how much love spending time with him. You hate his dazzling smile he flashes you every time you're with him.
You're not sure anymore. If you hate him for hurting you before you met, or the thought of him not caring about if you two aren't soulmates.
He is a Madrigal, he can have all he wanted!
Maybe your father is right. it's the universe's fault for making you believe that you're meant to be.
♡♥︎♡
Camilo trailed behind you around once again, humming a little tune he made up. "So, when are we going to the river?"
"We? No, me."
"[Nickname] we all know you have-"
"[Name]." You emphasize every syllable of your name.
"Oh right, [name]..." glancing at you for approval, and grinning when you nodded, he continued. "We all know you have a big family, like mine. So, I'm helping."
His heart warms up with your little laugh, rolling your eyes at his attempts, "okay, fine. Later at 3, don't be late, molesto."
The shape-shifter watches your back as you leave, breathing out a lovesick sigh. Hearing a familiar grunt at his back, he turned around meeting his cousin: Luisa's curious look with a hint of amusement, as she carried a bunch of shovels.
"I didn't know you were friends with the [last name]s." Lightly chuckling, like she's in disbelief, "no one has ever befriended a member of their family, they're good people though." She announced, before walking away.
"Wait, no one?? As in, never?" Camilo followed right after her, wanting to know the reason behind it. "Why? [Name] seems likable, her cousin too!"
"Wait, you haven't heard?" The big Woman stopped her steps, turning around with a baffled expression, the skirt of her dress swaying side to side. "Their family is against soulmates."

More Madrigal 2022 Headcannons
I am once again asking someone to draw these.
Thank you for all the love on the other headcannons I made!
Mirabel likes to guess what’s gonna be on her Spotify wrapped each year.
Camilo and Mirabel take their Snapchat streak very seriously.
Julieta loves when her daughters ask to take selfies with her.
Pepa demands selfies. As soon as she sees someone taking one she immediately jumps in.
Felix’s lockscreen is Pepa.
Isabela is Tiktok famous. She definitely advocates for injustices on her platform too. As does Julieta. I still think Julieta is like Tabitha Brown on there.
Dolores is constantly watching hair tutorials and trying every single one.
Camilo had AirPods. He lost them exactly a week after getting them. He doesn’t know Antonio found them and uses them all the time.
Isabela is the one that got Pepa into Meg Thee Stallion. It started with “Cash Shit” and just went from there. Isabela heavily relates to the beginning of “Girls in the Hood” cause hell yeah “fuck being good I’m a bad bitch…”
Pepa used to listen to a lot of rap in her day. Like all the greats. She really liked Tupac back in the 90s. Julieta did too but no one believes her.
Agustin gets really emotional when he hears any sort of ballad. He just starts weeping at the first chorus. Julieta thinks it’s sweet.
Luisa has headphones with cat ears on them. Isabela gave them to her and she teared up a little about it.
Mirabel likes to help Isabela dye her hair. She always ends up with stained hands though.
Isabela straightened Dolores’ hair once and Dolores wouldn’t go near her Mami for a week. She didn’t want the humidity or the rain to revert it back before she was ready.
All of them like doing hair masks together.
One time Mirabel accidentally shaved part of her eyebrow off and asked if her mami could fix it.
Julieta said, “Oh honey, I can heal you but I can’t fix bald.”
Mirabel was not impressed.
Isabela can grow weed. She didn’t know what it was first but Julieta knew and told her she’d take care of it. She made edibles. She later explained to Isabela what it was. They had a lot of fun
Felix and Pepa love when Isabela and/or Camilo ask them to do Tiktok dances with them. They’re really good at it.
Isabela had to restrain Pepa from learning the Wap dance from Tiktok. She personally wanted to see it but she didn’t want to scar Camilo for life.
Mirabel cried when she watched Moana (assuming other Disney movies can exist in this universe)
Sometimes Julieta let’s Isabela do her make up for Tiktok. It’s really cute watching them giggle together about whatever Julieta is saying to make her daughter grin.
Luisa often interviews the donkeys the way people do with dogs by holding the mic up to their noses. Antonio loves to translate.
Julieta’s lockscreen is her and her siblings. Her home screen is her daughters and Agustin.
Bruno’s lockscreen is rats.
The triplets have some secret tattoos they got when they were young. They’re good at hiding them too. Pepa and Bruno didn’t think Julieta would actually agree to it but she did.
The cousins accidentally showed Antonio a scary YouTube video and they had to face the wrath of Pepa until he could sleep on his own again. Bruno was also terrified by the video.
The whole family played Among us when it was first popular. Antonio thought it was funny to call people “sus” even when he wasn’t using it right.
Felix knows how to tap dance. He taught Agustin.
Luisa loves wearing lashes. Pepa does too and taught her how to apply them. They share make up tips since Luisa likes to look pretty while doing her chores and Pepa’s make up has to survive all the elements.

MORE ISAMIRA TATTOO ARTIST/FLORIST AU YOU SAY—
*cough*
So I do HC that a big part of the reason Isabela moves out of home (it’s a kind of modern AU if I had to give it a time period) is because of incest guilt, and the distance helped her with keeping that in check; of course years later Mirabel is finishing up apprenticing under Pepa and Felix for their tattoo shop and surprise surprise, Isabela has an available room in her apartment!
(This is eventually converted to Mirabel’s art room once the relationship officially starts, but hey)
Neither of them is happy about it, but Julieta is thrilled so they agree. Mirabel is THROWN, though; when Isabela was home she was still very much pre-WECID, while moving out she’s post-WECID. So a lot of plants, crazy colors, it’s so jarring for Mirabel. And she has a cat! His name is Gus, for their dad. He loves Mirabel
ahhh when the older sibling leaves home because of inc3st guilt 😭😭😭 that's one of my favorite inc3st tropes omg but yesss ahh Mirabel getting to know the REAL Isabela an Isabela who is happy and (mostly) free and with whom she actually likes spending time with? I imagine Isabela may still be a bit of a tsundere but she'd probably be a lot nicer since she doesn't carry all of that frustration that she NEEDS to dump on someone else. Mostly. I assume she's been doing a lot better mentally since she left? And being reunited with Mirabel doesn't just bring back old feelings she's been trying to escape, but also bad memories and traumas and the feeling of being trapped and needing to keep secrets again. But at the same time, she has a life of her own, a job, probably friends, she may or may not be in uni, so like, it's somewhere in the middle, right? I think she may have good and bad days. Sometimes she wants to prove to herself she's moved on and gotten over her feelings by acting as nice and normal towards Mirabel as she can, some days she can't help but drag her into bed and snuggle in her arms (mostly when she's sad and tired), and some days she yells at her for no reason and tells her she doesn't want to see her every again. Sad thing her cat likes Mirabel so much because now she can't kick her out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ post-wecid Isabela strikes me as very cheerful and happy and energetic, like she's almost always in a good mood that ends up being contagious, so baby gay Mira never really stood a chance, because whenever Isabela isn't having a trauma she's incredibly fun to be around and oddly cute?? terrifying
I imagine the plan was always for Mirabel to stay for some time while she looks for her own place and saves some money but by the end of the year she has a stable place in Isabela's bed and by the way she keeps holding her she's not going anywhere else soon.
