pre-canon Encanto headcanons to consider:
before the triplets got their powers, there were a lot of rumors about the weird lady living by herself in a cursed house
and there’s a couple people that are suspicious of the fact that this lady’s husband died right before she got a magic house
did she sacrifice him or her husband sacrifice his soul for magic?
like we’re grateful she saved us all but clearly this lady’s a witch
meanwhile Alma’s only reason for getting up in the morning are her kids. I deeply admire this of her
Nobody’s there the night the kids get their powers
Alma’s pretty freaked out herself bc not only is she raising three kids by herself while in her twenties, she’s raising three MAGIC kids by herself
at this point half the town’s pretty sure that Alma had the devil’s children
Alma’s freaking out a lot, but like hell are they going to get to her kids
That’s why she starts offering the town her children’s help
Show them we’re harmless, the very helpful Madrigal family
They do eventually go talk to the priest of Encanto. That’s how Bruno sort of figured out the match and sand thing
Lots of trial and error because before then the visions were random and uncontrollable
Still gets random visions but he cAN DO IT ON COMMAND NOW GUYS!
No one from the town is there the night that Isabela gets her gift, but rumors start up again (the triplets are a bit more understanding of their mother’s position after this) so the whole town is invited to Dolores’ ceremony
Which is actually not great she starts crying because she can hear everything

I just thought about this.
What if Pepa saw Dolores In her room in distress and couldn't take no more noise, Dolores wanted her mom to sing her a song like she did when she was younger.
Later the both were found sleeping together by the family.
Tumblr media
I combined these two asks and it's not 100% exactly what you two wanted... Hope it's still okay
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bruno taps her on the shoulder. It's a light touch, nothing more than his fingertips brushing her dress. Pepa knows what that means. Usually he is much louder when he's trying to get her attention. He will give her braid a short playful tug or he will snip her temple with a finger. Despite the heavy burden his gift has left him with, her brother is and will always be a little brother first, with all the brattiness that comes with that. And Pepa will always be the big sister first and make sure to deliver that outraged squawk and retaliate in style by kicking his shin.
But not when it's the soft touch to the shoulder. She knows what that means and so she turns around carefully, making as little sound as she can, holding the skirt of her dress so it rustles a little bit less than it normally would.
There is Bruno, standing at her back. In his arms he is holding Pepa's most precious treasure besides the one just beginning to grow inside of her.
Dolores, so small, so vulnerable, buried into his chest, her small hands pressed to her ears so hard her arms are quivering. Her face is squished against his ruana and Bruno keeps hold of Pepa's gaze while at the same time constantly whispering into his sobrina's left ear. Any other child wouldn't have heard him over the hands and the folds of fabric. But Dolores is not like any other child. She is a Madrigal. She is Pepa's daughter. She is blessed. 
She is cursed.
Pepa has to strain her hearing to make out the words, the soft and rumbling whisper whose only purpose is to drown out all other sounds. 
"And Maria is not actually Maria, she is Carmen, the evil sibling. At least everyone assumes she is the evil one, but she is just misunderstood, you know? She was just dealt a bad hand. She is not so bad, people just need to give her a chance."
Pepa wants to smile. His silly Telenovelas. She wonders where he gets all those ideas from.
She doesn't smile. Her baby is overwhelmed and in pain, how could she smile right now?
Instead she steps closer, putting down her toes first and rolling the balls of her feet with the utmost care. Lolo still winces as if her Mama had stomped her foot. 
Pepa catches Bruno's eye. 
'Bad day?' she mouths. 
He doesn't stop his tale, just nods and widens his eyes. A very bad day, then. 
Pepa sighs noiselessly (not for Dolores, nothing is ever without noise for Dolores) and winds her arms around her daughter. Her arms entangle with Bruno's for a second. For just a second, the three of them are joined in a hug, the vulnerable child trapped in the middle. But then Pepa pulls away and Bruno let's go. 
Dolores whines for a heartbreaking moment, clearly reluctant about the change of hands, but then Pepa starts to hum and her baby latches onto her instead, pressing her face into Pepa's hair. The woman is so glad that she's chosen the lavender shampoo that morning. The smell always calms her daughter down and now Pepa does smile after all as she can hear her child take a deep breath, audibly sniffing her hair. 
Bruno is still standing there, his arms hanging in the air. He looks a little bit lost, she thinks. Misplaced. Helpless. 
Pepa doesn't stop her humming and instead brushes her foot against his calf since her hands are full. Her brother snaps out of his daze. His eyes focus and he nods at her. 
'Tea?' he mouths and she simply smiles. She doesn't want to nod, doesn't want to disturb her daughter who has stopped shaking, but he knows her. 
Her brother glides away on bare feet, almost soundlessly, and Pepa follows his example and slips off her slippers. The tiles are warm against her feet and she silently thanks Casita. 
****************
When Bruno finds them later in Pepa's room with the tea, Dolores is much calmer already and the two of them sandwich her between them on the sofa and start to sing a song for her to distract her. It's mostly Pepa who sings, with Bruno humming along. 
Dolores has her head pressed against Pepa's mostly flat belly, listening to a heartbeat only she can hear at this point, and has her feet up on her Tio's lap. 
Felix and Julieta find them like that, hours later. Dolores has long since fallen asleep listening to new life, and Pepa and Bruno are sitting side by side on the sofa with her. Also asleep. Their heads are resting against each other, Pepa's one arm curling around his bony shoulders, while her other hand rests on Dolores' head. 
Julieta and Felix share a smile and retreat. Felix will just have to sleep in Dolore's room tonight.

Midnight Mischief: Milk Edition
Camilo crept through the courtyard, out the door, and down the hill into town with full confidence in his plan.
This was a great idea. No questions. None whatsoever.
Except… 
He didn't know if he could actually pull it off by himself. 
Now usually his pranks were an easy one-man show. How could they not when he could be literally anyone?
But the fact of the matter was he needed an accomplice for this one. Not even he could be in two places at once.
The problem was finding someone who'd help him. 
He stopped walking.
Maybe he should have thought about this before he snuck out.
The obvious answer was Antonio but there was no way he was risking his parent’s wrath by taking Antonio on a 2 am prank excursion 
Mirabel then? Camilo pursed his lips. Maybe…
“Camilo.”
Now, don’t let Bruno lie to you, Camilo Madrigal did NOT scream when Bruno snuck up on him. He totally did
But to be fair you would have too if your uncle with a penchant for mischief and a pair of glowing green eyes snuck up on you in the middle of the night.
“Tio!” Camilo wheezed, “Don’t DO that!” 
Bruno just snickered, “Ah Sobrino, that’ll never get old.”
Camilo glared at him. 
Well, there went that plan. He was in so much trouble.
But, never one to give up easily Camilo stalled for time. “So…” He adopted a casual tone, that oozed I’ve done nothing wrong, everything about this is completely normal. “What brings you out tonight hmm?”
Bruno raised an eyebrow, which only made him look eerier. Camilo really wished he wouldn’t use his eyes as a flashlight. Actually, now that he thought about it that was probably why 6-year-old him had formed the opinion that Bruno was some sort of boogeyman.
Bruno shrugged, nonchalant. “Oh, you know, just checking up on my trouble maker Sobrino, gotta find out if he has a good excuse for sneaking out at 2 am. It’s important information when deciding whether or not to tell his madre—”
Camilo broke character, panicking “Don’t tell her! Please! This is, this isn’t a normal prank it’s—”
Bruno’s faux serious expression broke and he laughed. “Ay, Milo, I’m not going to tell Pepa. I’m here to help you.”
Camilo opened his mouth to argue before processing his uncle’s words. “Wait, help me? You don’t even know what I’m doing.”
“Ohhh, so you’re not trying to drive all of Señor Hernández’s cows into the donkeys' favorite spot, ie the middle of town, meanwhile putting the donkeys in the pasture where they’ll be incredibly annoying to gather up again. And of course, all of this definitely isn’t to give him an exaggerated taste of his own medicine because it’s Luisa’s day off tomorrow and wayward animals don’t count as an emergency so he’ll have to round them all up by himself.”
Camilo blinked.
“How did you— Wait no, stupid question.” Camilo brightened immediately, his trademark mischievous grin slid smoothly back into place. “If you saw it then it works!”
A matching grin spread across Bruno’s face. If his sisters had seen it they would have groaned and told the unfortunate soul he was planning on wreaking havoc on to run for the hills. But then again Bruno never did anything that wasn’t deserved so maybe not. 
He schooled his face back into Serious Adult. “Exactly. But. The terms of me not telling Pepa are that we have to actually milk the cows. Hernández isn’t going to do it while he’s panicking and it’s not good for them  if they don’t get milked.”
Camilo scrunched up his face but didn’t argue. That was… fair. But, “Do you even know how to milk a cow?”
Bruno gave him a deadpan look. “Kid, we were refugees with nothing, it took roughly 20 years for the Encanto to get to any sort of comfortable stability. When I was your age milking cows was something I could do to be useful that didn’t involve visions or people.”
“Oh.”
“Yeah…” Bruno clapped his hands together. “Right, well, let’s go teach an incompetent rancher the importance of fixing his fences.”
In the morning when a panicked Señor Hernández banged on Casita’s door to request Luisa’s help Camilo took great pleasure in not so politely informing him that it was actually Luisa’s day off and maybe he should work on keeping better track of his animals.
And if the exhausted duo (who knew getting cows to move would be so HARD) had been forcibly put to work by a knowing Julieta to use up the abundance of milk they’d brought home, well, that was something that would just have to be kept in the family.

Bruno stares at his first cup of coffee in disbelief. Is he really back at the breakfast table with his family? Outside of the walls? He sticks his finger into the coffee and feels the heat. Must be true.
Taking the warm cup, entirely in his own little world, he brings it up to his face and takes a long breath of the fragrant warm drink. Just as he likes it. Black. Pure heavenly coffee just for him. He shivers as he releases his breath with a sigh. Pure content joy.
He brings the mug to his lips and takes a long sip of the flavourful fresh drink. After holding it in his mouth for a small moment, he swallows. A long sigh leaves his body. He puts the mug down and flaps his hands with pure joy, then hugs his warm belly.
Grinning widely, he opens his eyes and looks at Julieta. He is so happy that he has few words. Hugging her tight he simply says "It's so good, thank you."
Julieta and the rest of the family wipe a tear from their cheeks and smile at the man they have missed for so long. So happy to have him back among them.
Apologies for the delay on my fic. I've been busy and also I work very remotely so internet access is limited.
I hope you enjoy bruno's first cup of coffee after the walls with him. He deserves a nice warm cup.
I'll be back with more soon, thanks for your patience. ❤️

20 questions for fic writers
I was tagged by @thelordofgifs and @zealouswerewolfcollector, thank you!
1. How many works do you have on AO3? 163, all since 2018 except one from 2013.
2. What’s your total AO3 word count? 1,117,051 (how?)
3. What fandoms do you write for? Whatever I'm hyperfixated on, so currently Dragonlance/The Last Trial, I have not abandoned my Silmarillion fics I swear, the last few fandoms were The Witcher, Shadowhunters, etc.
4. What are your top five fics by kudos? wolves and voices (Witcher) by far, then take me back to the start (Shadowhunters), Didn't the trees tell us their stories? (Witcher), map out a world (Shadowhunters), straight through the smoke (Shadowhunters). They're not necessarily my best either, just a combo of larger fandoms and some of them being fairly old.
5. Do you respond to comments? I try to respond to every comment, though I often lack the energy and I've been known to respond six months late.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? I usually only write unhappy ending in ficlets, so probably Lord of Nothing (Silm) or we'd laugh at the ghosts of our fears (Silm)
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
if I am to braid my mystic crown (Silm) has a particularly happy ending I guess?
take me back to the start (Shadowhunters) has perhaps not the happiest ending but the one I'm most proud of.
8. Do you get hate on fics? I have gotten hate before, though nothing extreme. Those comments are just people being obvious jerks though, I find them easier to deal with than people who "helpfully" offer concrit and make you doubt everything you've ever written.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Nope
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? I've been known to write fusions, not crossovers so much, though Rats And Sand Jars is a crack Encanto/Shadowhunters treated seriously.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated? I think I've had someone ask before if they could, but I never heard anything more.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? No.
14. What’s your all time favorite ship? I don't ship tbh. But if we're talking about a couple I still think about and miss years later, maybe Thunderblink (The Gifted).
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? SO MANY OMG. The one I regret abandoning the most is perhaps the time we've been given (Shadowhunters).
16. What are your writing strengths? Stream of consciousness-style writing, otherwise dialogue I guess? And writing disabled characters.
17. What are your writing weaknesses? English. It's not my native language and my active vocabulary is restricted no matter how large my passive vocabulary is. Also humor isn't my strongest suit.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? In my own fics I'll try not to write more than a few words. In other people's fic, my opinion depends entirely on whether I can read that language xD
19. First fandom you wrote for? Uuuuh depends what counts as fandom and what counts as writing. First fandom I posted a fic for was Harry Potter, way back when I was a teen writing in French on ffnet. But I wrote roleplays/cooperative fanfic on forums before that and also stuff for school that was totally fanfic.
20. Favourite fic you’ve written? take me back to the start (Shadowhunters) if we're talking longfics. On the shorter side I'm quite proud of your veins are empty of dust (Silm).
Tagging @camille-lachenille @chthonion @thescrapwitch @emyn-arnens if you haven't done it yet!

ROTTMNT Leo-Focus fics I like
Gen fics, no ships edition
Ongoing:
Two Souls by Virgilisspidey (18/?, 105k words)
Leonardo has a friend that nobody else can see. "Aoi" has been beside him for as long as he could ever remember. AKA: A ROTTMNT rewrite where 2k12!Leonardo's soul is attached to Rise Leo's and "acts like a weird imaginary friend."
Personal note: the fic I loved so much I decided to make a ficlet of it. No serious, I love this one a lot.
Shell Shocked (Literally) by Pachinko_Lessons_101 (12/? chapters, 19k words)
Leonardo gets transported to Bayverse after a lab mishap with Donnie. Emotions ensue.
Personal Notes: Literally the story that got me into reading and writing fanfic again in 2022 after 4 years.
Every Night the Longest Day by ashtreelane (16/17 chapters, 42k words)
Leonardo gets hit with a curse that doesn't allow him to sleep. With sleep deprivation getting to him with each passing day, his family desperately searches for a fix.
Personal note: I unfortunately know from personal experience this fic is very accurate to bad sleep deprivation. Not to the extent in the fic, but damn I've stayed up.
You Are Not My Brothers by Marien0_0StrawberryMilk (3/? chapters, 2.5k words)
We have Baron "I wanted to make weapons of war but the tiny red-eared slider called me dad and I'm experiencing a moral dilemma" Draxum. In which Lou Jitsu lost one of the turtles, and Draxum accidentally becomes Leonardo's parent.

After the events of the Kraang, Leonardo starts to "hallucinate" other versions of himself, guiding him on leadership. AKA, 2k12!Leo and Future!Rise Leo work through very Leo issues with Rise Leo. Oh BTW, it turns into a musical by the midpoint. Do not be fooled, there's still ouch.
Warning: Disability erasure of a canonically disabled character in the final chapter. Something that I, as a disabled reader, care deeply about and have felt really genuinely hurt by in a fic I liked everything else about. Please remember to educate and not harass the author about this if you wish to call it out (note that I have -spoilers contained- commented about it already).
Proud Hermanos by HellsTrojanHorse (9 chapters, 8k words)

My contribution to milk day is: ANGST!
Below the cut is a little ficlet I wrote to go with it, that the wonderful @breannaaiedail offered to edit, and she did a wonderful job!  Thank you thank you thank you again!  And thanks for encouraging me to write something Encanto. 
I’m gonna tag some people who inspired this!  @glitternightingale (happy birthday, friend) @mmollymercury @thisstableground @cannibalthoughts
Alma’s steps are quiet and measured as she follows Bruno. It had been several hours since her botched first family meal. Perhaps one conversation hadn’t been enough to loosen her tight control over her family.  
And by that, she means she failed.  
Utterly and miserably.  
Luisa fled the room, crying, and Isabela got so frustrated she tore her napkin in two without realizing. Antonio started the meal teary-eyed, so Mirabel and Camilo did their best to distract him, loudly. Dolores hadn’t said a word, and Pepa, Julieta, and Alma plied Bruno with food until he was quite literally and abruptly ill.
He’d, unsurprisingly, fled the room after and not even Mirabel could find him for the next hour. 
If she’s honest, Alma didn't expect to see him again. If the holding pattern the two of them fell into ten long years ago was to resume.  
She’d push Bruno, as she always had, and he’d fade into the shadows.  He’d pad through the house in the silence of the early hours. Occasionally running into Julieta, but on the whole, avoiding everyone but the children.  
Of course, the thought of him vanishing so soon after his return filled her with dread, and she enlisted her present hijos, their esposos, and Mirabel to aid in her search. Mirabel told her he’d be back, likely as soon as she stopped searching. She was a voice of reason, despite it being a role too heavy for a 15-year-old.  
Mirabel was proven correct when Alma had heard her son’s near-silent footfalls slinking towards the church’s kitchen, just a few hours later. Perhaps the earlier nausea finally faded enough to let his nutrition-starved body demand food. 
Alma slipped after him, careful not to startle him. 
Julieta wasn’t idle after the search had been called off. She tied up her skirt and searched through the rubble of their home for her medical texts. Then, she spent the morning reading and sharing what she learned. 
So Alma followed her youngest, her Brunito.  And she poured him a glass of milk as he shrunk away from her, avoiding her gaze, just as Alma avoided looking at the faint scars on his too-thin wrists when he tightly clasped his left arm with his right. 
It wasn’t much.  Just a glass of milk, but her eldest assured her it was the first step to seeing her little boy healthy.  Something he hadn’t been in a very long time.

Seda's Encanto Fic List
The Madrigal In-Laws Series, aka the one with all of the OCs, lore, and el brujo loco. Info-dump post for that is here.
First Impressions of a Miracle - Agustín and his hapless parents - Philipe and Helena - stumble into a miracle, and are absolutely not prepared.
Better Tomorrows - Forty-ish years of a miracle through the eyes of Félix's uncle Roberto, aka the Encanto's emotional cornerstone.
(Mis)calculations - Doña Mercedes Guzmán, Mariano's abuela, has so many judgey opinions about so, so many people. Especially those absurd, pretentious Madrigals.
Final Reflections On A Miracle - On her deathbed, Agustín's mother thinks back on her life since arriving in the Encanto, and wonders exactly who the miracle is for.
A Prophet In His Own Land - The Big Bruno Fic, in which he keeps trying and mostly failing to find his place within both his family and his community.
Talk of the Town - WIP. Pepa's nerves are shot while she's pregnant with Antonio. This gives the rest of the kids a reason to make themselves scarce from Casita, spend time with their other families, and dig up dirt on their parents, Abuela, and that guy they can't talk about. Shenanigans ensue.
Damage Control - When the miracle's twentieth anniversary ends in violence, Félix does his best to smooth things over and make sense of it all. A visit with an old friend leaves him with the usual "more questions than answers". A Félix POV one-shot.
Apocrypha - post-canon stories also set in the In-Laws 'verse; so far the theme for these is ✨GAY✨
the same boy you've always known - WIP. Thirty years after leaving the Encanto, Padre José Guzmán returns with a new batch of refugees, a ton of emotional baggage, and a rekindled attraction to Bruno. Meanwhile, Bruno has a midlife crisis. The slashy romcom no one asked for but everyone needs.
Pollination - Isabela has a meet-cute Roberta "Bubo" Marquez, aka me spreading genderflip Bubo/Isa propaganda.
Fruition - Isabela and Bubo have A Moment among the lilypads.
Other Stuff - one-shots, collections, and other AUs
a slip of the mask - After the death of the Miracle, Julieta realizes she is angry. Her brother makes an easy - but also very complicated - target for that emotion.
A Star Is (Re)Born - Modern Celebrity AU. Everyone in the Madrigal family is famous, but historically Bruno has been notorious for all the wrong reasons. When a chance to revitalize his career presents itself, Mirabel encourages him to take it.
A Butterfly Flaps its Wings - WIP? My Encantober drabbles and ficlets.
Gently - Five times Bruno got squeezed too hard...and one time he didn't mind it.

Sorry if this is dumb, but what's going on in the angst surveyshipping comic?
ya know that's actually not dumb and it kinda never occurred to me to like explain it cuz I was just sitting there with the unwritten fic in my head rotating like a rotisserie chicken scribbling my grand vision out only to once again forget people can't read my mind
ANYWAY! (below the cut for super angsty mcd stuff)
BASICALLY, the plot of the ficlet that comic is based on that I haven't written is like, something happens when Laventon is out in the field with Akari and he dies(I think I wrote it as like, he was protecting Akari from a wild pokemon attack or something because I Love Angst), and Akari is coming back with everyone else who was out in the feild and trying to explain what happened to Cyllene, but the cart going past is the one with Laventon's body in it(cuz like??? they'd bring that back before cremating it right??) and Akari's messy explanation + the hat + seeing a cart go past carrying a body gets the point across and Cyllene is like "time to go all end of Encanto about this"
I swear to god it's better in fic form sfdkjfkljsjk BUT ALSO I have too many wips!!! So who knows if I'll finish it!!!

A Special Place
Chapter 5: of my ficlet dumpsite:
A Day in the Life of a Madrigal
Summary: I am so easily distracted - anyway this was bouncing about in my head demanding I deal with it... It is based purely on my HC that Isabela's Gift works better when she sings or hums to the plants she's growing. She just didn't do it when she was younger because the 'songs' did not sound perfect to her Abuela so were discouraged. On the upside when any of the Madrigals work in tandem the effects they can achieve are always multiplied by the number of family member involved. Chaos in the making for sure.
If you want to know why Mirabel is so interested in saving this particular piece of flora - you'll have to read my other fic Doors - cause it would just take too long to explain lol
A Special Place
Mirabel woke a little before dawn and quickly pulled out her robe. She picked up the small guitar and put the strap over her shoulder. She noted Abuela’s door was closed, so Mirabel slipped out into the hallway. She stopped first at Luisa’s door and gently tapped. The door opened and Luisa stepped lightly into the hallway carrying a small drum. Isa slipped out her door and the three sisters made their way to the tower.
Mirabel looked at the darkness at the end of the path but wasn’t afraid. This was something she’d planned to do for a while and since her sisters were home for only a few weeks for the Easter holidays, she wanted to do this tonight. The sisters came to the base of the enormous oak that dominated the clearing the path led to. Their mother had told them this was a special place that she and her siblings used to come to, to get away from the town.  It had been a good place for their Tia to learn to control certain aspects of her Gift.
Mirabel looked at all the scorch marks and breaks in the trunk and felt concern as the three arranged themselves in a small circle with their knees touching. Mirabel played an opening chord and Luisa gently tapped the drum to keep time with Mirabel’s playing. Isabela took in a deep breath and began to hum.
Mirabel had seen and felt what her sister could do with her Gift. She talked to Isabela first to see if she thought it would even be possible. She knew if her sister spoke to this tree, it could get stronger. It seemed to be in decline the past few years when Mirabel had brought her here and asked if there was anything she might be able to do for it. Isa told her she’d need to think on it. There had been talk in the town about cutting it down. Its leaves were riddled with holes and looked to be wilting around the edges. Bark was slipping and Mirabel was worried it would succumb to its great age. It was surely here long before the Encanto came into being.
Isabela continued to hum her song that wasn’t a song, there were no words to it, but it resonated, and the tree’s branches began to sway in time with her. She put a hand on both sisters’ knees and at the same time she pushed her whole voice into it. Luisa was humming along, somehow managing to keep in harmony with sister adding to the strength of the melody. The wind picked up and Mirabel willed apart of herself into that song and the three sisters glowed with the magic that had been a part of their lives from the beginning of their days.
An iridescent bubble of magic formed around them, and the sisters stood and walked joyfully around the tree. With Isabela guiding them they touched the tree’s bark as she let her gift flow into it. Old scars healed; new leaves unfurled and when Isabela thought she’d done enough, her song retreated to a hum. They returned to their original place and Isabela went silent.
It was still dark, so the sisters returned to their home and remained together until morning. Their mother appeared first thing with cups of tea for them and remarked that the great oak looked especially beautiful this morning. Mira passed each of her sisters a cup and they drank the tea. Isabela hid her pleased expression in her cup. Luisa smiled and Mirabel giggled when their mother left them.

Carewyn Cromwell’s voice had been so light and slightly sharp [when she was young] – like a little songbird twittering to itself. It wasn’t at all how it sounded now, whenever it reached Rakepick’s ear at Hogwarts. The fourth year’s voice was so much fuller and more grounded, but still was just as pure and warm, whether she was singing Bon Jovi at the top of her lungs with her friends or she was softly singing along to the Frog Choir’s rehearsals whenever she passed them. Carewyn had even auditioned for the choir earlier that year – Rakepick had been patrolling the halls at the time and had heard her. She’d even paused in her walk and leaned against the open double doors of the Hall with her arms crossed over her chest despite herself, so she could listen.
Carewyn Cromwell always sounded like she was smiling whenever she was singing. Even when the song was sad, even if she looked sad herself, it had this open, almost happy sound – this pure love inside of it, for the music she was creating. It made her sound so much younger than she sometimes acted, and yet somehow so much wiser, as well. The best comparison point Rakepick could make was when she herself was young and first discovering the joys of casting magic – of being able to fight on the dueling field, of being able to do incredible things with just a wave of her wand.
Music was to Carewyn what magic was to Rakepick. It was a funny sort of thought – but it made Rakepick feel an odd kind of pride, every time she heard Carewyn sing.
~“Who Wants to Live Forever?” by @carewyncromwell​

GAAAAH, OKAY, so um. I’m actually really kind of proud of this because yes, I know it’s a basic AF background, but I still did one, and it didn’t turn out that terrible and Rakepick turned out JUST the way I imagined and...yeah! I’m really kind of happy with it, right now. Probably will hate it within a few months like I always do with my work, but right now? I’m actually really happy!! 🥰
But yeah, this piece is kind of the flip side of this one artwork I did of Carewyn auditioning for the Frog Choir a long way back (complete with both a fic and a song cover also by me), with Rakepick watching from afar, as described in the ficlet above. No matter how distrustful Carewyn always was of Rakepick (both because of Rakepick’s strong Occlumency making it hard for her to get a good fix on the older woman’s intentions and secretly self-loathing Carewyn subconsciously picking up on similarities between herself and Rakepick), the Cursebreaker-turned-Professor-turned-wanted-criminal has always been fond of Carewyn, seeing her half like a much better version of herself as a girl and half like a protege, maybe even surrogate daughter. And as much as Rakepick is proud and haughty enough to not wear her fondness for Carewyn on her sleeve the way professors like Flitwick do, it’s still abundantly clear, if one’s paying attention. Dumbledore always knew, to the extent that it’s what made him secretly whether Rakepick truly had rejoined R’s side even after the events in the Portrait Vault -- and truthfully even Snape and McGonagall, both of whom harbored doubts about Rakepick that Dumbledore never did, were taken aback when Rakepick turned on Carewyn and her friends, though both made the determination that she’d simply calculated that she and Carewyn weren’t alike enough that they’d both align themselves with R. (Which was correct, of course.) 
Besides listening to some of the songs from the Rakepick playlist I compiled a while ago (especially Children Will Listen), I also found this original song based on an Encanto AU very good listening accompaniment for this project. Hope you all like it -- if you do, please consider liking/reblogging/commenting, and I hope you all have a lovely night!
