Bruno taglist : @nervoussubjectappreciator @soumya-13 @camilos-mivida @n3r0-1417 @moon-cakiie

You had heard the gossip around town, hearing the way people would talk about the seer of the Madrigal family. Thankfully, you weren’t one to judge somebody from other peoples perceptions of them.

They always spoke his name as if it was forbidden. It didn’t take long for you to hear the words Bruno and bad luck in the same sentence.

You would often wander around town with the same group of friends you always hung out with; Jesse, Adam, Veronica and Mariana. They would always whisper things in your ear about Bruno, letting you know how much of a menace the towns seer was.

However, you needed some insight on the future. You closed up the library in which you worked and began walking across the town.

People whispered his name as if he was something that shouldn’t be talked about, they would talk about him in hushed whispers and call him bad luck.

You watched as the villagers began heading to their homes, not wanting to be caught in yet another one of Pepa’s thunderstorms. You walked slowly, your hands digging into the pocket of your dress as you walked through the town. You glanced up at the darkening sky, Pepa had been having a bad week. You really hoped she was okay. You weren’t the closest with the Madrigal clan, however, you knew that before your Abuela passed away, she got along pretty well with Alma Madrigal.

You slowly approached la casa Madrigal and rapped your knuckles against the door. It was pulled open by Alma, “Hola señora.” You smiled politely.

“Hola, Señorita! It’s (name), right?” She asked.

“Sí, that’s right. Um, is Bruno available?” You asked.

“We’re about to have our evening meal, Señorita. Could you come back later?” The elder asked you.

“O-oh, yes. Of course!” You nodded, not allowing your smile to falter.

Bruno appeared from behind his mother, “It’s okay, mami. I’ve a little time before Julieta is finished preparing the meal.” He let his mother know, a gentle smile adorning his lips.

“Are you sure, mijo?” She asked him, worry evident in her eyes.

“Sí, I’m sure.” He nodded.

Alma stepped aside, allowing you to enter as Bruno began leading you to his vision cave.

The steps almost killed you. “Would you like to be in there with me when I do the vision or would you just like me to bring the vision out to you once it’s done?” He questioned you, turning to you only to see you leaning over with your hands on your knees, trying to catch your breath. He stifled a laugh as he watched you.

“Could I be in there please?” You asked politely, finally regaining your composure.

“Of course. Come on in.” He smiled as he led you inside, “Just um… Just don’t hate me if it’s a bad outcome, okay?” He told you.

“I wouldn’t.” You told him, a genuine smile on your features.

He gestured for you to sit across from him, he threw salt and sugar over his shoulder before lighting the leaves and holding his hands out to you, “You might wanna hold on.” He told you.

You nodded, taking his hands in yours. You watched as his eyes glowed bright green before seeing the sand swirl around you. Your eyes were wide in amazement as you stared around; watching the images materialise around you.

You couldn’t make sense of either of them, all you could see was Jolene, your pet kitty. You frowned slightly, your eyes scanning the sand images.

Bruno soon let go of your hand and grabbed the green glass tablet that materialised in front of him, “For what I can see, it isn’t good.” He sighed.

You stared at him, waiting for him to continue, “It’s your, uhm, your cat, it’s going to die.” He mumbled, staring down at the tablet.

You let out a soft sad sigh, “I mean, I knew it was coming but it’s still so sad, you know?” You mumbled.

“It looks like a pretty big cat.” He told you.

“She’s a leopard.” You shrugged, not noticing the way his eyes became wide like you hadn’t just told him that the big cat he’d seen you hugging in your vision was a wild animal.

“A… Uh… A what?” He asked, confusion evident on his face.

You turned your gaze back to him, your eyes were wide. “Oh, I’m sorry. I kinda forget that people don’t expect that when talking about pets. Jolene is a leopard, my Abuela rescued her as a cub from a zoo when I was five so I basically grew up with her. When my Abuela passed away, Jolene was left in my care as my mamá didn’t want her in the house any longer so when I moved out, I took Jolene with me. She started getting sick a while back, I asked your sister for some remedies for her but it seems that was just delaying the inevitable.” You shrugged, staring down at the tablet.

“You keep a leopard in your house?” He asked.

A giggle left your lips, “Sí, well, actually, she used to spend most of her time in the backyard. She only started staying in the house when she got sick.” You sighed.

Bruno nodded, “That makes sense.” He mumbled. “I think.” He added. “I’m sorry it isn’t better news.” He told you as he led you towards the door.

“No, it’s okay. Thank you, Bruno.” You smiled at him, squeezing his shoulder as you left. “I’ll see you again, Bruno.” You told him before walking away, a soft smile gracing your features.

The doors of casita closed as Bruno turned on his heel, a soft smile gracing his features as he headed to join his family for dinner. “That looked like it went well.” Julieta observed, sending her brother a soft smile.

“The vision? Not really, her cat’s gonna pass away.” He sighed.

“But she walked out with a smile.” Alma noted.

“And she said she’ll see you again.” Pepa began teasingly. “She likes you.” She poked his cheek as a smirk spread across her features.

Bruno could feel the heat rising to his ears as he sat down, trying to block out his sisters incessant teasing. However, the image of you smiling at him and the lingering touch you left on his shoulder was spinning through his mind as he leant forward on the table, placing his hands over his head with a soft smile beginning to break through his features.

You arrived home, staring at Jolene as she stretched across the sofa. “Hey girl.” You petted her head, earning a loud purr coming from the large animal.

You placed a kiss to the animals head before heading to the kitchen, “You hungry?” You called out.

The leopard let out a soft growl, indicating that she was. You threw out a few fish across the floor, allowing the large animal to eat them up as you began cooking your own meal.

You glanced into the living room, watching as your pet devoured her meal, you leant against the counter and let out a soft sigh.

“It’s not gonna be the same without you, Jojo.”

~ Holaaaaa! New series bc the Camilo one really wasn’t working out for me 😭 Anyways, I know this part is quite short, whoops. Lemme know what y’all think though, angels! 😘 Stay hydrated, make sure you’ve eaten today, remember you’re loved more than you’ll ever know and stay safe, lovelies! Mwah! 💖

Every day I’m just in awe of my friends and their writing prowess

I cannot recommend @thebiggestnope‘s fic on AO3 - The Training of Bruno Madrigal enough. I’m happy I had a chance to start it before life got super busy. Seriously, I have so many fics bookmarked and backlogged to read on my flight next month when I have the time to relax and read, but I’ve always made sure to keep up with her updates as they come out for a few reasons. The first is the relationship between Bruno and her OC Adriana is so charming and their chemistry is as lovely and juicy as a fresh Georgia peach. Second, the explicit scenes are written in such a new and different way than I’m used to when looking up E-rated fics of my favs. There’s a deeper level at work here of communication and trust rather than just the smut (which is phenomenal on its own), and really does exceed what I love in the tag Porn with a Plot.

A new chapter was updated yesterday and I’ve already read it twice, eager for the next one. If you’re a Bruno fan who’s into explicit content, I highly recommend checking it out! (Obviously please only check it out if you’re 18+ and mind the tags!)

What if the Madrigals piled into a huge van and went to a mall?

Felix is the driver. He always brings along a bottle of water that Pepa always ends up drinking. He buys himself another one in the mall or begs Julieta for one. He likes to find new music to dance to or sheet music.

Alma sits beside Felix in the passenger seat. It's too hard on her knees to crawl into the back part of the van and she likes to be in a spot where she can see the whole family. She will usually meet an old friend for a meal or coffee, then shop with Julieta and Agustin when they get groceries. Everyone knows to meet them when the groceries are done to help load up the van because Julieta will send out a group text. This is the last thing they get done and they leave the city after.

Pepa sits behind Felix. She always forgets something and it's most often her water bottle, so she takes Felix's. She and Felix like to dance to Agustin's piano music if they see him playing in the mall. Felix will follow her around and carry her bags for her, even though she asks if he's sure he wants to do that. It makes him happy so she lets him. They'll help with the grocery shopping too.

Antonio sits beside Pepa and likes to bring along his stuffed jaguar because he isn't allowed to bring along any of his other animals. He has a system for who he spends time with and chooses a different person/group each time so that he can spend time with everyone. He always wants to visit the toy store and pet store, of course.

Julieta is on Antonio's other side and always brings along a large bag full of food, juice, water, and first aid supplies for the kids (and inevitably her husband).

Luisa sits behind Pepa. The far back seat is too tight for her to fit into and she wants to give the front bench to Antonio so he can sit with his mother. She likes to bring tea along for the ride and points out all of the farm animals in the fields.

Isabela sits beside Luisa. Isabela and Luisa usually end up hanging out together in the mall. They like to try on different clothes, check out the bookstore, and visit the gardening section.

Agustin's behind Julieta and beside Isabela. He almost always slams his finger in the door or hits his head getting into the van. Julieta and Agustin like to find a nice restaurant to have a meal together before they go shopping. Sometimes Agustin will play the mall piano for a little while.

Camilo sits in the far back seat behind Luisa. He's always got a prank or some other scheme planned for mall shenanigans. He usually drags Mirabel and/or Bruno into it. When he isn't planning schemes, he likes to visit the music store and Mirabel drags him to the craft store.

Mirabel sits beside Camilo and likes to bring one of her embroidery projects along for the long car ride. Camilo usually keeps distracting her with his plans so she doesn't get much done. She likes to stock up on her sewing supplies and likes the arts and craft store.

Bruno sits beside Mirabel and always has a huge coffee in his hand. Being outside of Casita is exhausting, never mind being in a huge mall. If he can get away from Camilo's plans, he likes to hang out with Dolores in the book store, music store, craft store, and pet store. He makes sure he's never alone in the mall.

Dolores sits beside Bruno and behind Agustin. It's usually the quietest corner of the van and she likes to watch outside the window as she listens to music through her headphones. If she isn't with Bruno, she likes to hang out with Luisa and Isabela.

💚King of Time💚

✨King Bruno✨

This is a fantasy AU "Encanto Empire"

Each Madrigal has their own title.

Pepa - Queen of the Skies

Julieta - Queen of Healing

Bruno - King of Time.

Madrigal children: Coming Soon by age

As mentioned, Encanto is an empire, ruled by the Empress, Alma Madrigal.

Each of her children had their own title as King and Queens, and has their own palace.

The Madrigal triplets may have their own palaces, but each are connected by structure and magic.

The Empire includes a lot of other kingdoms from other royal families, who unlike the Madrigals, practice witchcraft.

The Miracle will be the one to choose which among the Madrigal children will inherit the Empress' throne.

It's a complicated AU that has a lot of details and etc.

So I rewatched the movie encanto, and I wondered something.

What would Bruno's kids be like?

Hear me out, Alma and Pedro gave birth to the past (Julieta, who heals past wounds), present (Pepa who can control the weather now), and future (Bruno who can see the future)

Julieta and Augustin gave birth to beauty (Isabella, who makes beautiful flowers and plants), brawn (Luisa who is stronger than ten men), and brains (Mirabel who solved the whole family issues)

Pepa and Félix gave birth to hear no evil (Dolores who hears everything), see no evil (Camilo who can change into anyone), and speak no evil (Antonio who can speak to animals and command them)

But what would Bruno's children be if he had any? What would their life be like in the encanto before and after Bruno leaves? Would he have triplets like he was with his sisters since everyone else is years apart? Who would they get along with? What do you think their powers would be? What would their relationship be with the members of the family? What would the villagers think of them?

I need to know what you guys think. Make your story for these three

I wanna do a collection of one shots about the Madrigal kids and their parents when they were all little - inspired by my hc that Isabela got herself tangled up in her vines CONSTANTLY when she was little because I need that in my life.

If any of you guys have any suggestions for chapters - like for any of the kiddos and their gifts or just funny moments within the family, let me know. I would be happy to do them :)

Encantober day 2: Strength

Redraw of this storyboard by Ryan Green. Supportive Luisa and Bruno doing his best.

#encanto #encantober #my art #bruno madrigal #luisa madrigal #I forgot to add more weight. but I think it’s funnier that he can’t lift the flimsy lil thing I drew #maybe he got it an inch or two idk where the floor is #also I just made it it’s 11:30 here #not doing all of encantober btw just the ones I get ideas for as they come #I’m no stranger to monthly prompts so I know the feel of spending all day brainstorming and coming up with the worst shit #not doing that in this fun stress free fandom #most likely will be 100% drawing. I don’t think I could do fics for these but who knows #my words

♡ perv!bruno madrigal x reader

♡ a/n: rewatched encanto with the family last night and thoughts were being thunk 😗👉🏽👈🏽 love me some voyeur bruno. (also, reader kinda knows he's watching them)

“Bruno,” you whimpered, as you rubbed yourself harder against your soiled pillow; your hips gyrated until the bed shook, knocking against the wall in rhythm.

The one where he was watching from.

He caught his wrecked sobs with his hand, while the other wraps around his leaking cock— the veins pulsing as he fists himself with vigor upon seeing you throw your head back.

“Oh, fuck. Please,” you pleaded, mouth agape as the grip on your pillow grew tighter.

Your unfocused eyes locked with the hole in the wall, almost as if you were aware of his voyeuristic ways.

He was throbbing in his slick covered palm, painfully aware that he'll come any minute. He never lasted long with you.

Bruno couldn't be sure what brought it on: maybe it was the thought of you putting on a show for him, or the way that you said his name, but he gritted his teeth as he pumped himself a final time.

With a groan, ropes of white coated his stomach and shaking hand. He brings it to his lips, tongue peeking out to kitten lick his fingers— his mind tricking himself into believing it was you cleaning him up.

When he glances up, you're on your back coming down from your high. Your heated cheeks and heaving chest made his cock twitch, signalling for another round.

He moves to tuck himself back into his pants, when he hears you giggle.

“Hope you enjoyed that, Brunito.”

The Vision ! ~ Part Two

Now reading; The Vision

camilosunshxne

01:43 ━━━━●───── 03:50

⇆ㅤ ㅤ◁prev ❚❚ next▷ ㅤㅤ↻

Pairing : Aged down!Bruno x fem!reader

Warnings : Foul language, doubtfulness. If there’s anything else lemme know.

Plot : You decide to go to Bruno for a vision and it goes surprisingly well despite the news therein being saddening for you. You keep going back for visions and to hang out with the Madrigal boy, urging Bruno to develop feelings for you. Will his vision shine a little light on the situation for the Madrigal boy.

Pronouns used : he/him for Bruno, she/her for reader.

Info : Bruno will be aged down to like 24, reader will be 22ish for this story.

Bruno taglist : @nervoussubjectappreciator @soumya-13 @camilos-mivida @the-ice-frozen-ground-red-rose @moon-cakiie @n3r0-1417.

Bruno heard the laughter as he exited his room. There was Pepa’s and Julieta’s and then one he didn’t quite recognise, one that was vaguely familiar but he couldn’t pinpoint where he knew it.

“So your abuela rescued a leopard and the said leopard sleeps in your bed?” Julieta asked.

Bruno’s eyes widened, the girl with the pet leopard was here. He quickly smoothed his hair and ruana out before making his way down the stairs. “Hola.” He stood timidly in the doorframe.

You turned your head to him and grinned, “Hola, Bruno!” You smiled cheerfully.

“What, um, what are you doing here?” He mumbled, rubbing the nape of his neck.

“She came to see you, hermano. We told her you were with Señor Flores so we suggested she wait with us.” Pepa told him, sending him a smirk as she folded her arms.

“O-oh. W-well, if it’s about your cat, I’m afraid I don’t have a time frame.” He stuttered.

You shuffled on your feet nervously before feeling your cheeks heat up, “It’s not about the cat.” You mumbled.

“Oh?” He tilted his head to the side.

“I was wondering if you wanted to hang out.” You mumbled.

“H-hang out? Me?” He asked you.

“Sí. Uh, I’d like to get to know you more. And from what your sisters have been telling me-” You began.

“Wh- Uh, what have they been telling you?” He questioned.

“Just that the rumours aren’t true and that you’re actually a great guy.” You shrugged, a smile on your face.

“I… Um… I wish I could but I need to help Julieta prepare lunch.” He mumbled.

Your smile faltered slightly, “O-Oh, that’s okay.” You smiled sheepishly as you teetered on the balls of your feet.

“No, you don’t.” Pepa piped up, staring at her brother.

“What?!” He asked her, eyes wide.

“I can help Juli. You go and enjoy some time with this girl who clearly wants to get to know you.” She spoke through gritted teeth, emphasising the final part as she glared at her brother.

He sighed in defeat, “Okay. Okay.” He said, raising his hands in surrender. “Where would you like to go?” He asked.

You thought for a moment, “I know a quiet spot by the river. People don’t really hang out there.” You shrugged.

Bruno nodded, “Okay. Let’s go.” He sent a nervous smile your way.

A grin emanated from your features as you began heading past him, he took in your scent slightly as you walked past. He’d been watching you from afar for the past week, since your vision. “You’re welcome.” Pepa whispered as she sent a grin his way. He shook his head, hiding the smile on his features before turning on his heel and following you from casita.

He stopped at the front door and glanced out. He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath as he did before following you down the path.

You eventually made it to the river. However, the walk there was not pleasant for him. People were giving him unpleasant looks as if he shouldn’t be seen around.

The pair of you sat down at the river, Bruno stared at you, watching you. He took in the sound of birds chirping in the sky above him, the scent of freshly baked arepas that seemed to be floating through the air from the stand on the other side of the river.

“Maybe we should get to know each other?” You suggested, causing his attention to drift back to you. You were staring down at the river and he couldn’t help but admire your side profile, you had such soft looking skin, your eyes were wide and gorgeous, your hair was tucked behind your ear and was flowing beautifully in the soft breeze.

You turned your head, your eyes meeting his as you sent a grin his way, “Want me to go first?” You asked, pulling the boy from his intense staring contest with your face.

“Uh, oh. Y-yeah, sure.” He nodded, playing with a loose thread on his ruana.

“Hi! I’m (name). I’m an only child. Jolene is the name of my pet leopard which mi abuela rescued when I was five.” You smiled, holding your hand out for the Madrigal to take.

A soft smile came on to his face, he placed his hand in yours and shook it, “Hola, (name). I’m Bruno Madrigal. I can see the future and I don’t have a pet leopard but I am quite good friends with the rats around casita.” He sent a smile your way.

A soft giggle left your mouth, “So, you’re friends with the rats?” You asked, as he let your hand go.

He nodded, “Sí. I named them all.” He grinned.

“Do tell.” You told him.

“O-okay. There’s, um, there’s Rosa, Diego, Juan, Fredericka, Freddie, María, Mario, Julio, Hernandez, oh, and Bert.” He shrugged.

“Bert?” You scoffed, trying your hardest not to let out the laugh you were currently holding back.

“Yeah, he didn’t like the other names I tried to give him.” He shrugged, letting his own chuckle seep through.

A soft smile emanated from your features as you stared at the boy, quickly getting caught up in some other conversation.

You made your way back to casita, you glanced around at the people staring and sending dirty and fearful looks Bruno’s way. You let out a soft sigh and turned to Bruno as the pair of you reached his home.

“We should do this again some time.” You told him.

A smile crossed the boys face, “I’d like that, (name).” He grinned.

A soft smile graced your features as you watched him walk in. You turned on your heel and began walking the opposite way,

“I- Uh… Would you like to come in and join us for lunch?” He asked you, turning around.

You stopped in your tracks before turning to him, “Really?” You asked.

He nodded slightly, “Y-yeah. I’d like you to join us for lunch.” He said.

You sent a warm smile his way, “I would love to.” You said as you headed towards him.

He stepped to the side, allowing you to enter the home before guiding you into the dining room, “Hola mami! I asked (name) to join us for lunch.” He told Alma.

Alma turned to you, a soft smile gracing her face, “Welcome (name). Join us.” She smiled at you, gesturing to an empty seat beside Bruno.

You took your seat as Julieta brought in the bowl of avocados before taking her seat across from you, beside Pepa.

It was around half way through the meal when señora Madrigal turned to you, “So, señorita, are you and mi hijo dating?” She asked.

You immediately began coughing, choking on your food slightly as Bruno’s cheeks flushed red beside you. You quickly took a sip of your wine before staring at his mamá, “Uhm…” You began, clearing your throat. “N-no. We’re just friends.” You told her.

“Do you plan to date him?” She asked, taking a bite of her food as if that question wasn’t a big deal.

“Mamá…” Bruno groaned, placing his head in his hands.

“What, mijo? You’re twenty four, it’s about time you started thinking of your future.” Alma stated, taking a short sip of her wine.

Bruno turned to you, giving you an apologetic look.

You sent a soft smile his way, “Uhm…” You rubbed the back of your neck as you turned your attention to the matriarch, “We’re just friends, señora.” You mumbled.

“Will it ever lead to more?” She was staring right at you now.

“U-um… I… I can’t see the future, Señora. I don’t know.” You mumbled.

“Mami, stop please.” Bruno groaned.

You swallowed your last bite of food before excusing yourself, “Uh-uhm, I have to go. I need to go.” You mumbled. “I’ll see you tomorrow, Bruno.” You rose to your feet before hurrying out of the house.

You felt your sandal covered feet sink into the grass outside of the casita as you took a deep breath, “Hey.” Someone spoke, making you jump.

You turned your head as your hand flew to cover your chest, “S-sorry.” The newcomer chuckled.

“It’s… Uh… It’s okay.” You smiled.

“I’m sorry about mami. I know she can be a bit… Er… A bit much at times.” They mumbled.

“Pepa, it’s fine. Really.” You smiled at the redhead.

“Look, about Bruno… Well, he needs friends. I’m sure you know that he’s not well liked around here. I appreciate you taking your time to actually get to know him.” She said as she stared at you.

“I don’t judge people because of other peoples perceptions of them. I prefer to make my own decisions. Also, I think Bruno is really nice and sweet.” You let her know, a soft smile gracing your lips.

“Let Bruno know that I’ll come by tomorrow, m’kay?” You asked her.

“Sí, I will.” She nodded, “I’m glad mami didn’t put you off or anything.” She told you.

“It’ll take a lot more than a few uncomfortable questions for me to be put off. Bruno’s a good guy and I really wanna get to know him more.” You smiled, you tapped the top of her arm before walking away, “See ya tomorrow, Pepa.” You sent a smile her way before beginning your walk back to your home.

You fed Jolene before laying across your couch, the large kitty laid her head on your stomach and you began to run your fingers through her fur as her paw rested on your legs. Soft, loud purrs occurred from her throat, causing them to vibrate through your stomach. Alma’s questions from before had been floating through your mind. You had been interested in Bruno for a while but never had the confidence to approach him before, however, since your vision a week ago, he’d been on your mind ever since. His shyness, his little chuckle, his smile.

You let out a soft sigh, “What am I gonna do, Jojo?” You asked.

“Mrrrooow!” Jolene replied.

“Yeah, I don’t know either, sweetie.” You sighed, letting your fingers get lost deep within her fur.

You stared at the ceiling, a wave of relief washing over you,

“At least we’re becoming friends now. We’ve got that, if nothing else.” Your eyes fluttered closed, letting your body fall into a deep sleep.

Bruno laid in his bed across town, a soft smile gracing his lips. The image of your smile flickering through his head as he tried to fall into a deep sleep.

“Maldita sea, estoy enganchado.” He sighed slightly before closing his eyes and falling into his first peaceful sleep in a while. There were no bad visions to haunt him this time.

(Translation: “Dammit, I’m hooked.”)

Encanto Ficlet: One Fear

Welp, horror and spooky stuff is difficult. I hope this is bearable 😭 Written for @wdtajn Week 2: Horror.

...

Bruno is straddling that fuzzy edge between slumber and wakefulness when he feels it. A squeezing sensation that undulates along his torso—starting at his hips, compressing his belly until it reaches his chest.

Tight, tight, tighter. In the dim light he chokes out a gasp and gives a jerk of his arm. The flailing limb whips up the quilt on his bed like a tent, sends the rats scattering. Suddenly, the awful pressure ceases. Going still, peaceful, Bruno soon tips back toward sleep. The last thing that catches his senses is the sharp bray of a donkey, coming from somewhere in the Encanto…

“Nngh,” Bruno groans. It’s morning. Or at least, time to get up.

He extracts himself from the tangle of blankets and rubs a palm over his face. “…Typical,” he mumbles when he prods the area around his ribs gingerly and doesn’t find the soreness he half-expects. It must’ve been some dream: some leaking vision, twisted into a nightmare. Nothing’s wrong. But he takes a handful of salt from the box beside his bed, and tosses it over his shoulder.

A rumble of his belly pushes away any further thoughts of whatever the dream was. Bruno springs up to get dressed and head downstairs.

It turns out he’s missed breakfast with the family. Casita has fallen completely silent. The kitchen and dining room are devoid their usual noises and laughter as Bruno shuffles about, making quick work of a plate of leftover ground beef and red beans over rice, with a bit of fried egg on top.

Juli must be in town already, Bruno thinks, climbing the stairs above the lifeless courtyard. He’s decided to grab a few things from his room before joining his sister and the others. Pepa might still be home, he realizes; the middle triplet had talked about having a day off.

A voice cuts through the quiet: “I thought I heard you!” Bruno sees Antonio rushing over. The boy barely gets in a hug when he pulls away with a harsh shout, as though burned. His eyes widen; Bruno watches tears form in them while Antonio stares, takes a step back, then another.

“¿T-tío Bruno? But… why? I don’t- No, no!”

“W-huh-wha—? What is it??” Bruno flaps his hands in distress. He tries to understand, to offer comfort, too, but Antonio is crying in earnest now, his small face fearful and disbelieving. With one final wail of No! Antonio runs in the direction of his mother’s bedroom.

A chill sweeps through Bruno’s gut, making him feel faintly ill for a passing second. The dream he had flickers across his mind, and he pushes down the chill, throws more salt and some sugar for good measure. He has to follow Antonio (his stomach clenches; this time from recalling the look on his sobrinito’s face), and hopes Pepa can help.

The air shifts, becoming damp and dense, crackling with electricity, the closer Bruno gets to Pepa and Félix’s room. He can hear sniffles within, and just as he’s reaching for the doorknob, the door flies open.

Pepa’s thunderclouds burst over their heads. “What the hell, Bruno?!”

The younger sibling flinches. “Peps!” He squeaks. “I-I-I don’t know! Wait, t-there was this dream—ah, no, it doesn’t matter. I-I just. Didn’t mean to make Toñito cry!”

“Then what. Happened.” Pepa delivers two good pokes to Bruno’s waist, followed by a sharp, shocked gasp and a blast of frigid wind as she recoils, yanking her hands to her chest.

She breathes, “Dios.” It starts to snow. “Oh. Oh. Brunito. ¿Qué? No… We need… Julieta—Does she know?!”

Bruno feels that chill again, and this time, he allows himself to shudder.

“What is going on?” He asks, voice coming out steadier than he feels.

His sister responds by taking him by the hand and tugging him into her room, where Antonio is seated on the bed with his knees drawn up and tucked beneath his chin.

“…You haven't noticed?”

“Clearly not," he deadpans as he's positioned in front of the full length mirror.

“Mira,” Pepa says cautiously. She gestures at his shirt before moving back to sit next to her son.

Bruno sighs, and starts undoing the buttons there. As his shirt falls open, he sucks in a breath. Oh, no.

Where his belly should be, fattened over time and from many healing meals—

He shivers, squeezes his eyes shut.

It’s worse than he could’ve imagined...

—A firm plane of sculpted muscle.

Abs.
