• — miguel o’hara !

you found out he can dance and never stopped bugging him about it ever since. he’s somewhat rusty but give him a couple seconds and he’s ready to go. he’s really good, same par as you just not so enthusiastic about it. still, miguel loves that dancing is your favorite thing to do.

told you that he’s a romeo santos fan and you busted out laughing. to this day, seeing a romeo santos song in his playlist makes you laugh and he’s like “leave me alone”. you asked him if romeo was better during his aventura era.

yes, this also means he’s the number one bachata lover but keeps it a secret from everyone, especially you.

the first time you two ever danced it was to imitadora in his so called office. miguel had to make sure no one came in. he’s the type to have one hand on your lower back to pull you in and he has your other one in his, up beside of his head. whole time he’s dancing with you he’s telling you how much he loves you and has you like “o—oh okay 😳”

no space in between you guys whatsoever. he wants to have you as close as possible and sometimes rests his chin on the top of your head as you two dance to whatever song is playing.

he’s definitely an arm around your waist type of guy. you took note that it was his first instinct when dancing. whether it be when you are in la rueda together or it’s a dance that needs a pair, his arm instantly goes around your waist. also probably the kind of guy who dances with an arm around your waist while both of yours are around his neck.

you’re also an arm around the waist when it comes to this man. i mean, why else is he gonna have that slutty waist if you can’t have your arm around it? anytime you guys are dancing and his arm is around your shoulders, you take this into your advantage and hold onto his waist. he’s like “stoppp 🙄”

miguel is at the age where he just criticizes every song you guys are dancing to. do not look at him when a song he hates is on. he’s staring at you through the corner of his eye just saying ‘don’t you dare’ cause wym you wanna dance to prince royce with him?

makes compromises especially if you have told him you like that song or artist.

“que canción tan fea. no se quien le dijo a valentin elizalde que podia cantar.” (t: what an ugly song. i don’t know who told valentin elizalde he could sing)

“miguel, ya callate por favor.” (t: miguel, be quiet already please.)

most of the time, he doesn’t go in the center of the circle with you. not in a bad way, miguel just loves seeing you dance and capture everyone’s attention. he never gets tired of seeing that smile on your face when you’re dancing with your tias and putting on a show for everyone.

if you want him to dance with you for the entire night, he will. that’s no issue for him. besides, certain bailes he’s the one that’s glued at your side and takes you to dance.

bonus; miguel likes taking a break from all his screens once in a while and starts dancing with you. whenever this happens though, miguel prefers to play slower songs or anything where you two don’t have to move around as much. as long as he’s holding you, that’s all he wants. and he admits to romeo being better in aventura. last verse in ella y yo is all you need as proof.

• — miles morales !

when you two first started dating, he knew how much of a dancer you were. you’d always post some videos of you and your cousins at quinces or bailes. so when you both were hanging out by yourselves in his room, you started playing some music to dance with him. then he just looks you in your face to tell you, “nah yeah i can’t dance sorry.”

you called him a “yo no sabo” kid and he was highly offended. regardless, he was very willing to learn because he doesn’t want you to feel like he doesn’t care.

you have so much stamina when dancing he cannot keep up with you. from the minute everyone is allowed to start dancing, you are the first one there and he’s along with you. miles decided to count how many times you sat down throughout a baile and it was three times. those three times were simply because the hosts asked the guests to sit down.

he doesn’t know how you can transition from one genre to another so quickly. half a second ago you both were zapateando together and now they have corridos playing. you were so fast to put you hand on his shoulder and reach for the other, meanwhile the poor boy is trying to process the new beat which is much slower and he trips on his own feet. he’s also very shy compared to the rest when it comes to dancing.

feel like he enjoys listening to female artists a lot more to the male artists.

miles is surprisingly good at tejano, huapango, and wepa. so much so you had to ask him to teach you and he was like ‘neehee what was that, you yo no sabo kid?’

he’s definitely more of an arm around your shoulder type of guy. it just makes it easier for him to pull you towards him and so you two take your steps together at the same time. likes it when you bring your arm around him too or if you hold his hand.

one time, you invited his parents to come along with him at one of your cousin’s quince. you found out miles’ dad is the exact same as he is. even when his parents were dancing, his dad was doing the same things as him. miles is just a carbon copy.

at that same party, miles left to the bathroom for a couple minutes and when he came back, his dad was sitting by himself at their table. meanwhile, you and his mom was nowhere in sight. he asked where you two where at and his dad just said, “on the dance floor,” and pointed to you and rio getting cheered on by your entire family while being in the middle of the circle.

it made him feel happy and once again, offended, because you were dancing with his mom and because you weren’t dancing with him. you and rio got along super well but the way she was having the time of her life with you made miles know he made the right choice.

offended for a third time because you took her to a birthday party you got invited to instead of him. it’s around ten pm when he gets a video of you and his mom getting cheered on while dancing to some cumbias and pulling dance moves he’d never seen before. his first thought once he’s done watching the video is, “yup. she’s the one.”

bonus; miles is really great at la quebradora. you can really thank his spider—man strength for most of it. it didn’t take you guys long to perfect it and once you guys show it off at a baile, his whole nervous demeanor is gone for the remainder of the night. he’ll constantly ask someone to record you guys when doing la quebradora and posts it whenever he can.

his dance skills when you first started dating: six out of ten

• — hobie brown !

hobie’s really at bailes to eat. like. nothing else to it 😭 you’ll invite him and he’s already thinking of all the to go plates he’s going to bring back home. yes yes, he dances with you. why wouldn’t he? but that food?

hobie gets you in trouble every time with your tias. they baby him saying “mi pobre hoberto, verda que no te da de comer?” (t: my poor hobart, she doesn’t give you anything to eat right?”) and he’s like “no tia 😖” and they give him two plates he’s smirking at you talking about some, “grassy ass.”

off the bat, he’s already preferring corridos, norteñas, bachatas or anything you have to dance to as a pair because of the height difference. he loves being able to hold you close and just look down at you.

though even with songs you don’t need to be paired up with, he’ll do it regardless. hobie just loves the idea of being close to you even in your most favorite thing to do.

he’s one to stick to the basic dance moves and sometimes he doesn’t put much effort when dancing which makes you mad. he knows it does he’s just doing it on purpose because he’s evil.

hobie understands spanish to a good level thanks to you. he likes singing the lyrics with you as you guys dance together. you’re so passionate about it and sometimes he just stops to admire you, a smile on his face.

prefers a lot of the older artists compared to the newer ones. has a bit of a hate relationship with corridos tumbados. doesn’t really want to dance to those and won’t ask you. if you ask him, then he’ll go but you take note he sits there, judging the song as he eats his fifth plate of rice and barbacoa.

he’s an arm around the shoulders type of guy too. it’s just connecting back to the height difference. this makes it easier for the both of you as well so at least one of you can lead. easier for him to lean down and give you a kiss on the side of your head.

likes it when you tug on his arm, dragging him to go dance with him because a song you both like is on. he thinks it’s really cute how excited you get.

bonus; hobie knows which artists you like and the songs as well. he even made a playlist of it to listen to whenever you’re not around. pretends to be shocked when a song or artist you like comes on even though he requested it so he could ask you to dance.

his dance skills when you first started dating: seven out of ten.

his dance skills presently: eight out of ten.

his favorite genre and artist: corridos ; chalino sanchez

• — pavitr prabhakar !

off the start pavitr was so good at dancing that you barely had to teach him much. instantly, his favorite genres are cumbia and merengue. you’re both in your own world when they come on. he prefers them the most since he likes that you have to move around more to them.

the main thing you had to teach him was how to zapatear. pavitr had the most trouble with that since there were so many different versions of it. he quickly caught on though by looking at you and your family members dance it from the sidelines. he struggled a bit even after grasping the concept but now it’s in his favorites too.

more of a hand holder when it comes to dancing. he just finds it easier to pull you around and give you a spin. but also it gives him a bit of stability and that you both are moving at the same time together.

surprises you with some dances you didn’t even know he was practicing on. they played la iguana one time and pulled you to the center with him. next thing you know, pavitr’s doing la iguana and you’re just staring at him in shock as everyone’s recording him.

loves, loves, loves it when you tell him that everyone at el recalentado was talking about him turning up and being the life of the party. they had asked you if he was columbian and they began guessing what race off his dance skills. until you told him pavitr’s indian and they were so surprised. he got dubbed as a hispanic by everyone there. he feels so special when you tell him. it has him giggling and kicking his feet, “aw your family likes me :)”

pavitr loves doing el grito with los tios. he just likes feeling included in everything. he heard them do it once and just went along with it. you side eyed him wondering how more of a natural he is than you are. is he secretly hispanic? you’ll never know.

texts you one day saying, “your aunt is celebrating your cousin’s birthday. do you wanna go to the party with me?” and you’re like “babe wym?” yes, you saw that right. he gets invited now before you. pavitr is now immediate family. he’s legit the first one to receive an invitation now.

he’ll surprise you by taking you to some bailes he knew about. please do matching outfits with this boy when you guys go 🙏 he’ll dress in your culture’s traditional clothes. in fact, he even starts wearing them as an every day outfit. you find it cute and can’t help but give him a kiss.

that being said, you guys don’t come back home until after three from a baile. you always apologize to your parents but they know that you and pavitr are having the time of your lives. you both love dancing just as equally and you’re glad you found someone who loves it the same way you do. and you both complain about how your legs hurt the next day together.

i mean it when i say no one can take you guys off the dance floor for anything 🙅🏻‍♂️

menace to society when duranguense plays. society being you because he saw a video of this couple spinning really fast while dancing duranguense and they called it “el tornado”. he started doing it every time the genre comes on. turns out he just thought the video was hilarious and loses his mind over it.

bonus; he was one time blasting la mama de la mama at the max volume with hobie driving an old honda civic, driving at full speed down the streets chasing an anomaly in their spider suits. no reason for them to even be in a car, they just wanted to jam to the song.

his dance skills when you first started dating: nine out of ten.

his dance skills presently: gets snatched up by your tias to dance with instead of you.

his favorite genre and artist: merengue ; k—paz

• — peter b. parker !

first time he ever went to your family party early stage of you guys dating and everyone was like, “how did you two get together?” he’s like “haha yeah i don’t know myself.” when he literally bagged you like this except he said his name instead.

he’s actually standing with los tios as they all watch their wives get down on the dance floor and they’re stuck recording the entire thing for el facebook live. except unlike los tios he’s over there like 😃🤳🏻. he is your top supporter and then tells one of them, “yeah that’s my wife :)” as if they didn’t already know.

his icloud hasn’t been backed up in six years and finally asks you why it keeps saying it. turns out he has over thirty thousand videos in his phone of you at parties dancing. refuses to delete any of them.

he wasn’t the best at dancing when you guys first started dating. okay he was terrible. there was no saving him. which was such an issue for peter because you were always dragging him to bailes and he would have zero rhythm. of course, you started teaching him whenever you guys had time. he practices on his own sometimes just to save you the trouble.

peter tries his hardest to learn because it always makes you an extra amount of happy when you two are dancing together. just do not take him when merengue comes on. he refuses to go.

for one, he’s too stiff dancing it but his legs? how do you dance this every time it’s on let alone continue after the songs change? he’s in pain and had to sit out for the rest of the party the first time he danced merengue. to this day, peter still feels the burn in his legs.

also an arm around the waist type of guy. he loves it a little too much. he likes having both of his arms around your waist while you guys dance to norteñas. he never takes his eyes off you and he likes to give you kisses during the songs.

dumbass accidentally dedicated a narco corrido to you meanwhile you just had to smile and nod at him.

you don’t leave him with los tíos for a long time anymore because he ends up becoming a whole new person. he got drunk with them and all of a sudden, peter just magically knew how to dance. he was having a whole dance battle with one of your tios and won. he’s like, “ya viste? 😃 dicen que gane!” (t: did you see? they said i won!”) where the hell did you learn spanish from? has no recollection of him speaking it the next day.

in fact, he’s actually a whole new persona when tierra caliente music comes on. you still don’t know why and won’t ever find out. the roles end up getting reversed and now you’re dragged to dance with him instead.

needs about two to three weeks to recuperate. what do you mean you guys are going back again? begs you to let him stay home and sleep so he doesn’t need to go to el recalentado.

bonus; definitely said big booty latinas was his weakness to you thinking you were his favorite tio when he was drunk at one point. cried the entire way home because you “kidnapped him from his big booty latina and she was gonna beat both of you up.”

his dance skills when you guys first dated: zero out of ten.

his dance skills presently: eight out of ten.

his favorite genre and artist: norteñas ; seto vargas

Bakugou x Oc

This is my Chun-li style oc who is Pro Hero Bakugou patrol partner.

In my story they met in the future when Bakugou already is a hero and his agency is looking for a patrol partner to keep Pro hero Bakugou in control of his public image and so far he has quite a reputation in the hero community that causes all of his patrol partners to quit, get fired , or leave.

-Bakugou is aged up in my headcannon/story

-Bakugou has hearing aids

-In my headcannon I imagine bakugou LOVING Mexican food because of all the spice and chili in everything and the flavors.

For my Chun-li style Oc she is Chinese Mexican. I still don’t know what name to give her because names aren’t really my forte so any suggestions would be incredible .

- when she was a child thanks to her quirk she used to play football/soccer

-She has lots of difficulties in speaking japoneses so lots of times she forgets simple words or says it in past or present tense

-lived half of her life in Mexico and half in China

-Her hobbies consist of cooking,reading,going to the gym,football/soccer,and dancing(cumbia,salsa,bachata,zapateo,banda,huapango and more)

-She kinda is like bakugou in the aspect of giving a 110% of everything she does and always striving to be the best and always craving words of acceptance and approval of everyone

- loves mixed martial arts

Quirk:

I believe that my Oc would have a quirk related to her legs like Mirko and Kirishimas hardening quirk but if she stresses her legs to much or uses her quirk to much her legs star quieting horrible muscle cramps,spasms,and more so that why she is always training and conditioning her legs so she can last longer fighting.

Her fighting style is like Chun—lis and also a mixed of taekwondo and jujitsu that her father taught her.

[yu7i]

i die a little when i remember you aren't latinoamerican and i cant send you thirdworlder songs in spanish that i totally think are goten and trunks because i feel like goten would totally like that kinda music and be like "trunks this song is totally us" and trunks would be like "goten shut up i don't wanna listen to your shitty music" because that is what he says and he doesnt mean it all but he says it anyway- anyway there is this one song called "Ocho Cuarenta" by Rodrigo and goes a little like

"She's a multimillionaire, and of the highest level, she finished highschool with an average of ten, Her friends surprised couldn't believe that one night, distracted, from the dance she went home with him, that lazy bum, who never had a blank, he put his chest to boot, giving her goosebumps"

and i think that's them and i think that goten would be like "this is us" and then trunks would be "yeah because you're a lazy piece of shit" but he would be blushing or something, and for some reason i like leaning into goten having like a soft spot for more rural type music (maybe because of all that time living in a mountain idk) even if it might be the opposite of this actual music tastes are like and i feel like trunks finds it endearing but he'd never tell him (because even if trunks is not proud like vegeta is, i like exaggerating that into a tsundere-ish amalgamation of traits that vaguely resemble what an adult trunks would be like)

anyway have a good evening or whatever time it is

FEEL FREE TO SEND ME MUSIC EVEN THO IM NOT LATINOAMERICAN!!!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOODNESS GRACIOUS

^ Put it on my playlist .

I love your insights . Goten has SOUL and would live and breathe rural music IN TRUTH. Im always on about him getting into 80s rock and 90s metal and going to frat parties in the city BUT WHERE DOES HE GO AFTER THAT ? He goes back home to his mountain and sleeps in a lovely house and eats dinner with parents who love him … He has SOUL indubitably .

And I appreciate your insights into Trunks as well .. i think he has a soft heart and an easy spirit and youre showing that HE DOES NOT LET IT FLOW EASILY … Goten brings him sweetness on a platter and Trunks is like “GAH . Whatever . So cringe . I hate you (blushing).”

Thank You Always

Know and enjoy in Boca del Rio Veracruz

Boca del Rio is a neighboring municipality of the wonderful port of Veracruz and visiting it is undoubtedly an experience that you can´t miss when you take one of the many flights to Veracruz. Here you will find a long boardwalk that connects this municipality with that of Veracruz, museums, boat rides, plazas and a small center where you will learn more about this historic state.

Boat trip on the Jamapa River

Next to the museum ship, you can hire the service of boat trips that will take you to tour the Jamapa River, among the main attractions that you will see are the mangroves, which are quite important as they purify the air, water and serve as a barrier to avoid river overflows. Here you will also be told about the legend of the Countess of Malibran, you will see her house that still survives after many years, the legend tells that it was a French witch who fled from her country because there they burned the witches, when they settled in Boca Del Rio built that beautiful house by the river and she seduced men and killed them to steal their youth. After this tour, you will get to know the little Venice of Veracruz, which is a group of canals that pass through different residences.

Interactive Museum Cañonero de Guanajuato

First of all, we must know that until now it is the only museum ship that exists in the country, so knowing it is almost mandatory. This boat was built in Spain and brought to Mexico in 1934, it was one of the best in the Navy until 2001 and in 2008, it became the only museum of its kind in Mexico. For a cost of $46 pesos this includes the guided tour with the explanation of the use and history of this boat, you will also know engine rooms, cabins, offices, bridge control all other facilities.

Agustín Lara House Museum

Better known as the white house, which was a house that the government of Veracruz gave to this great Mexican composer, for what he had done for the culture of the state, but more than two decades ago the state acquired it again converting it in this museum that tells the story of one of the greats of Spanish-speaking music. Undoubtedly, this place is one of the places you must visit in Boca del Rio. In front of the museum, you can see the island of sacrifices, where the Olmecs sacrificed women to offer them to the gods, but today you can visit them to Snorkel.

Mandinga Lagoon

Very close to the center is this lagoon which is an excellent place to eat fresh fish and take a boat ride, what you can get to enjoy this place is the traditional music of the region and there are even some dancers who accompany with zapateo the beautiful songs. Even after eating you can take a boat ride and know some places in the lagoon where it is possible to go for a swim.

If you are about to choose between the many flights to Veracruz, we recommend that you assign a day to visit Boca del Rio where we assure you will have a great time and you will see another historic side of the port.

Flamenco

A song or dance commonly associated with gypsies from southern Spain. The  (in northwest India) to Spain around the 9th and 14th centuries. These immigrants brought musical instruments, such as tambourines, bells, and wooden castanets. They also carried an extensive repertoire of songs and dances. As they encountered the culture of Sephardic Jews and through the years as cultures melted the art of flamenco came to be.

Alegrias: A musical form which has a rhythm consisting of 12 beats, with emphasis on beats 3,6,8,10, and 12. Originating in Cadiz, Alegrias belong to a group of Palos known as Cantinas.

Baile: The movements of the flamenco dance 

Bulerias: a high-spirited song and dance form which originated from Jerez de la Frontera in Southern Spain. It has a fast and lively rhythm.

Compás: Equivalent to a single measure or bar of a flamenco song, but can also be used to refer to the skill of a flamenco performer.

Cante: A flamenco song.

Cante jondo: A vocal Flamenco style, considered one of the most traditional forms of flamenco.

Cantor/a: A Flamenco singer

Copla: A verse of Cante Flamenco.

Corrido: A romantic ballad.

Duende: The chilled feeling musicians and dancers feel after hearing or performing like goosebumps. 

Estampa: Term used to describe the overall look, stance, and appearance of the dancer. Used to determine skill.

Falsetas: A guitar solo accompanied by a dancer.

Fandango: Andalusian folk song and dance believed to have been derived from the Jota dance which comes from Aragon. Not as popular as traditional flamenco but still widely celebrated.

Gacho: Gypsy or Romani. They were pioneers in the creation of Flamenco and its expansion throughout Iberia.

Malaguenos: A song form characterized by its sad tone. This style usually incorporates no dancing to fit the depressing undertone. 

Oposición: While one part of the body is doing something, another will be doing the opposite. For example, If hands are waving to the left side, the head will face the right side. 

Palmas: Art of hand-clapping. If done correctly, Palmas can serve as an excellent substitution for drums, but the act requires extreme skill and precision.

Rumbas: A style that utilizes more Afro-musical elements such as the use of a Cajon, a wooden box that functions as a drum.

Saeta: A passionate song dedicated specifically to Christ or the Virgin Mary

Siguiriya: A song of anguish and despair, similar to that of a battle. Siguiriya literally translates to ‘deep song.”

Solea: Most basic form of flamenco. Solea has been referred to as the “Mother of palos” as it only features one guitar.

Son: All the sounds that accompany the Flamenco. 

Tango (not Argentine dance): One of the oldest Flamenco songs, featuring a basic 2/4 time with heavy guitar strokes on bats 2,3 and 4. Perhaps the most popular form of flamenco.

Tona: The oldest form flamenco, typically performed by Gypsies in Andalucia.

Voz afilla: The Hoarse style of voice that sometimes accompanies darker Flamenco songs such as the Siguiriya.

Zapateo: Derived from the Spanish word for shoe, as the dance is a tap dance.  It originated from dancers not having percussion instruments around and improvising with their feet.

What is HAKKEN? What does HAKKEN mean? HAKKEN meaning -HAKKEN pronunciation - HAKKEN definition - HAKKEN explanation - How to pronounce HAKKEN? Source: Wikipedia.org article, adapted under http://ift.tt/yjiNZw license. Hakken (sometimes Hakkuh) is a form of rave dance originating from the Dutch Hardcore and Gabber scene. The term is mostly associated with the Gabber subculture. The dance is very similar to earlier European folk dance and is thought to be a sub form of zapateo with less airborne moves (unlike jumpstyle, for example, which features the "drunken sailor" style of jazz dance and high kicks). Music one is able to do the dance to is also called hakmuziek. The name is derived from the Dutch verb hakken which generally means logging, chopping, or hacking. In Australia, the dance is mainly referred to as gabber (noun) or gabbering (verb), named after the music it is performed to. Despite the fact that it is called "Gabber", it is usually performed to music of the hardstyle genre by most people in Australia. The dance consists of small steps that quickly follow to each other to the rhythm of the bass drum. The lower body (down from the pelvis) is the most important part, though it is not unusual to move the arms and torso too. The dance is mainly performed to Hardcore techno and more specifically Gabber music. Because one is supposed to keep up to the beat of the song, the dance is usually done fairly quickly, since the BPM of this music style can easily reach 190 BPM.
