FABril day 6 - Photograph

G, 1385 words, Camilo & Isabela, implied Félix/Agustín/Bruno

Camilo and Isabela find incriminating pictures and have a few thoughts about them.

--

Camilo is not proud of the meltdown he had when he found out his mami dated other guys before his dad. What he holds in his hands right now somehow feels even worse. 

In the back of his dad’s hobby cabinet that once stood in his parents’ room — now part of the pile of selectively sorted rubble next to what remains of Casita — he’s found a tintype photograph faded at the edges of his father kissing another woman. 

It makes no sense. His dad is plighted to Mom, his eternal devotion to her as clear as the morning sun. Surely this has been the case since the dawn of time; like the moon has the sun, like the night sky has the stars, his father has his mother and vice versa.

His mouth twitches. The pair doesn’t even look that young. The envelope he pulled it out of said ‘1923-1925’. Pa must’ve seen the woman right before Mami.

An intense cocktail of fury and denial swirls inside his chest and dries out his lips. Before he has time to process any of this, his cousin pops up behind him.

“Woah, is that tío Bruno?” Isabela says, peeking over his shoulder. Her words drop like stones from great heights because woah, is it? That’s absurd, and, no fucking way, no way no way no way.

“No,” Camilo croaks dismissively. “No way. I’m the only changeling here.” He squints and presses his nose against the paper to inspect the woman to confirm that she is not, in fact, their tío Bruno. But it’s a little difficult because the photo is in black and white and her face is turned toward…she’s kissing Papi. And Camilo’s hands are shaking.

He can’t color-type the woman in order to determine if she’s wearing Bruno green or Abuela maroon. Her hair is dark and curly like tía Julieta’s, falling to her shoulders, and parted with a bow the way Mami does it. She wears a modest dress that covers her from wrist to neck, a lace shroud draped over her shoulders; Abuela’s signature look. In her ears hang large hoops that look like Mami’s and her nose is kind of big for a lady-

“Guess you got it from him, then,” Isabela says. “Two dads! Wow. Good for you, Milo.”

He twists around. “He’s not my dad. This is probably just one of his telenovela things, right?” That last word comes out a tad too desperate, so he tries to rectify it with a weaker “right?”.

Isabela shrugs her shoulders. “He’s probably just goofing around.” Camilo can only hope so. Their uncle does that a lot. “Are there more?

In fact, there are more photographs. The two cousins huddle behind the cabinet, hidden from view from the others working around the construction site. There’s a bunch more in the envelope Camilo found the first offending tintype in, but a lot of them are simply pictures of their parents from when they were younger: tía Julieta without her worry lines. Mami and Papi — these feel much more correct. Young Abuela with braids, so weird. Tío Bruno in more dresses. Tío Agustín- oh. 

“Well, would you look at this,” Camilo says, waving the picture in his cousin’s face, hoping the anxious beating in his chest will disappear if he taunts her. “Seems like tío Bruno’s been getting around.”

Isabela snatches the tintype out of his hand. Sure enough, it’s tío Bruno and her father. Bruno wears a different top Camilo thinks is one of tía Julieta’s, bare at the shoulders with a shawl draped over them. His face is clean-shaven, softened with make-up, and he’s looking up at Agustín with an arm around his waist. Tío Gus looks down equally smitten. It’s a damn near exact copy of how he and tía Julieta always stand together, at ease like the unit they are. Having each other for support.

“He’s…He’s probably copying my mother,” Isabela says coolly. But she adds an equally fragile “right?” after. “It’s a joke.”

The problem is that it looks genuine, their affection. And not in a way Camilo knows Bruno roleplays. It’s the face he makes when he dreams away with a romantic story.

Barring the contentious truth that Papi used to date other people before Mami, the pictures make him feel weird. Like they’re snapshots into relationships Camilo isn’t supposed to be privy to. Hidden in the back of his father’s cabinet. Not both his parents’. Who has ever heard of three men in love?

“They look pretty into it,” Camilo says, feigning casualness. “But that would mean that our dads are…and…they’re not like that…are they?”

“It’s hard to imagine.” 

“Not that I think anything is wrong with that,” Camilo says, just in case. It would be hypocritical of him, after all. It’s just…it’s a bit of a blow to consider that Papi could be like him. “It’s like you said. Hard to imagine.”

Isabela gives him a queer, scrutinizing look. “No. I wouldn’t mind either.”

For a second, the world stands still against Camilo’s wish that it should get on with it.

Frowning, Isabela studies the picture for a moment longer. Then her face slackens a little as she gets used to the idea of her dad getting it on with their uncle. “If this is what we think it is, and that’s a big if, do you think they’re still…”

Camilo shrugs. 

Having tío Bruno back with the family is weird. Suddenly there’s this new guy messing up the dynamic between everyone. Mirabel has become an emotional support niece, like a crutch that Bruno uses to lean on whenever the family and the neighbors get to be too much. The triplets are a triad again, the unspoken gap filled with someone they have evidently missed between them. The stories that are coming out from the adults now don’t need to accord for one missing member. They no longer trip and fall over the guy they’re supposed to forget, or close the door on him like he’s a boogeyman to banish.

That last one is a very fun but problematic image Camilo helped perpetrate and hasn’t quite reconciled with. Really, Camilo kind of likes the guy. Bruno is shy but creative and outwardly odd. He’s nothing what he thought Bruno was.

No signs of a rekindling romance between Papi and los Tíos Ridículos though. Not that Camilo noticed, anyway. 

“Doesn’t look like it,” he says to Isabela.

“No?” she offers. “You don’t see tío Bruno looking all moony for no reason and wonder what he’s thinking about?”

“Sure I do. Just don’t think it’s about our dads. I mean, I kinda assumed that he did that because he’s Bruno.”

“Yeah,” Isabela agrees. “I’m not about to ask him, by the way.”

“You’re not?” Camilo asks disappointed. It’s been a while since he’s had an adventure — everyone else in the family seems to get one. “Then how are we supposed to find out-”

She places her hand on his shoulder. “Milo, maybe this is one of those things that’ll come out when it’s time.” 

Isabela’s secret weapon is congeniality. Camilo has always thought that poking and bullying that mask of perfection off of her is fun, knowing there’s a loser like him underneath the princess. But being on the receiving end of that generous face makes it hard to deny the resemblance between her and Abuela. Ergo, he crumples like a little boy under her gaze.

“If tío Bruno and our dads need to have a conversation,” she says sternly, “that’s between them. There’s no way I’m asking tío Bruno and freaking him out — if these photographs are what we think they are and he’s not just putting on a play.”

She has a point. There’s a chance he’ll flat out deny or skirt the issue, which Bruno has done before with less thrilling subjects than forbidden romance. It has been two months since the house fell down and their uncle got plastered back into their lives like a gob of spackle. He’s barely getting used to everyone seeing him. Literally.

“Or maybe it’s nothing and he just likes wearing lady’s dresses.” She shrugs with a smile.

The two of them gather all the photographs back into the envelope and place it in the back of Papi’s cabinet where Camilo found it, hiding the memories a little while longer until they’re ready to come out.

💅😈Camilo🏳️‍🌈: ✨non binary✨

Reblog + credit if you decide to use any of these💕

[rats0ut]

idk if this even makes sense but im obsessed with this line from the quarry

[justanisabelakinnie]

Ayo the definitions for Camilo Madrigal on Urban Dictionary are so fucked like who writes this shit. 👀

But then again, I can’t say I’m surprised, because after all this is 1) Camilo Madrigal, and 2) Urban Dictionary we’re talking about here.

[thisismisogynoir]

I didn't want to get involve with that whole "black sons reblog thing" but I can't find any article or evidence suggesting that Alberto is black or mixed. His voice actor isn't even black or mixed so it's likely a head cannon.

I also just wanted to spread this message that it's completely valid to have head cannons. It's just when you try to push those head cannons on to others or trying to pass it off as fact is when it becomes an issue. this also reminds me of an issue I had once so it's deja vu for me

That’s because he’s not Black.

I agree and thank you.

I wasn’t saying it was wrong to have headcanons, not at all! I hc Camilo as bi but that’s besides the point! It’s the fact that none of those characters are even Black, Camilo and Tyler are mixed at most, Alberto is outright white, like you said. Having curly hair=/=Black, Omg. And then he’s not only calling them his Black gay sons, but there are literally Black gay male characters he could’ve used instead. Even if they’re not canonically gay, he could have taken Black male characters and headcanoned them as gay, but the fact that he chose to use characters that aren’t Black and then aren’t even gay is what’s worse.

Darkskin Black boys(and girls too) are always seen as scarier or angrier or more violent than lightskin Black boys or mwB boys(and girls too) who are coddled and seem as more sweet, safe, and innocent in comparison. Especially by white people(because we all know that mf is white). And even then calling them your Black gay sons is weird but it’s still better than whatever…this…is. So that’s what made the post more irritating for me, but you know ”get fucked sideways” or whatever. Real mature, that guy is.

Felix: "its not gay if were friends"

Bruno: We heard hes canonically aroace bc jared bush joined our discord and told us. ...Or he's gay but nobody wants him.

Agustin: active bisexual swinger

Julieta: not gay but every single one of Isabela's and Luisa's girlfriends desperately want to fuck her

Camilo: who give a shit

Señora guzman: deeply closeted lesbian who married for convenience and status and who has been hopelessly and toxicly in love with alma madrigal for 50 years but can only express that love by marrying off her grandchild with hers.

Queer Madrigals

I'm about to post a couple future!fic for Encanto, so I figured I'd take a minute to talk about my headcanons when it comes to their genders/sexualities.

The Obvious: I've posted somewhat in depth about what I think Bruno and Isabela's individual deals are, so I'm not going to really talk about it here, but yeah. Using the labels I am familiar with, I assume Bruno is demi, bi, and nonbinary, and that Isabela is a lesbian who ends up marrying a trans woman.

The Married: I mean, we can sit here all day and speculate, but the only real headcanons I got are that Juli is demi and Pepa has made out with more women than Bruno.

Mirabel: I've mentioned this, but I didn't really talk about it. Due to heteronormativity I suspect it wouldn't occur to Mirabel to question her sexuality until later in life when the Pride movement starts up. I think she's bi, possibly also demi, but most definitely not very focused on her love life (another reason why she doesn't think too hard about her sexuality). She's got shit to do and if somebody wants to date her they better speak up about it because she's got too many projects going on right now to bother with mind games. Mirabel ends up with a man mostly by coincidence, I saw somebody do the numbers and its just statistically more likely that a bi person will end up with somebody of the opposite sex (the math didn't factor for gender). I try to keep all of my headcanons grounded to peoples lived experiences, and this felt historically accurate.

Luisa: I think that if Luisa were a tumblrina she would end up being CIS+, but would have to go through the journey of exploring her gender due to societal biases. In the context of 1950's Colombia, she spends her youth hearing abuelas and tias talking about how she needs to be more feminine if she wants a husband, and struggles with that for a while. Luisa sings "I glow because I know what my worth is" and that's the sort of thing somebody says when they're on the other side of some serious self doubt, so I do think she had to deal with a bit of misogyny and body image issues. The thing is, Luisa likes the way she looks, and she's proud of what a hard worker she is, but she also wears ribbons in her hair and skirts instead of pants to work in. Furthermore, I suspect every bi person in the village, male or female, has a huge fucking crush on her because if she was a modern tumblrina people would be responding to pictures of her with that "not to be a lesbian but oh my god" stuff. I headcanon her as being technically cishet, but culturally gay due to people being people about the whole Woman with Biceps thing, if that makes sense. Once she starts allowing herself some free time, she dates every bi man in the village.

Dolores: Morosexual. No offense Mariano.

Camilo: You know how gender is a product of your culture and different societies throughout history have had different ideas of how many genders there are and what it means to be a man or woman? I think being able to turn into a woman at will would have an effect on Camilo's relationship with his gender. Like, I don't know if he would be full nonbinary, because I have never met a shapeshifter and asked them how they feel about gender, but I can't imagine he sees gender as a rigid binary. Like I said, I try to stay grounded in my headcanons, and I have zero idea what the lived experience of a shapeshifter is, soooooo...?

Antonio: I have spent a long time weighing the options here, his association with animals makes me think he would be the least traditional Madrigal, so I would like to think he'd end up in the least conventional relationship. I posted a list of headcanons where I floated the idea of him being poly, but I like the idea of him being aroace better. I stand by the rest of it, though. He marries a lesbian, let's her girlfriend move in with them, and he's just kinda there. Like, the women consider themselves married to each other and he's just some guy who talks to birds. They're his best friends and thinks he's pretty great but the only time he has sex is when him and the wives want kids, and other than that he's just vibing. I arrived at this headcanon because I love the idea of him being sorta a reverse Bruno. Like, people think he has two wives so everybody assumes he's this total lady killer, they sing songs about how charming he is, rumors abound that he can make a girl swoon with a single smile, then you talk to him and he's just some guy. Occasionally, a woman will throw herself at him and he's like "No thanks" then starts having a conversation with her cat. Do you see my vision? Anyone? I don't care if nobody else thinks it's funny, because I'm giggling at my computer.

Week 1: Introduction

For the @encanto-extended-edition event!

I mean, would it even be me if I'm not late?

Meet Ana Julia! She's Diego's (my main OC) daughter.

Quick facts:

14 years old

Birthday May 10th

Later self-discovered bisexual

1.53 m tall

Read more about her under the cut! With some CW like child abandonment? Trauma.

Ana Julia is a 14 yo who arrives with her mother to the Encanto escaping violence. Her father dies during the attack to their town. Her mother blames her for her father's dead and their relationship breaks completely even though they were never close.

When they arrive to the Encanto she's still in survival mode, specially because her mother stops taking care of her so she has to do something to survive. She steals a lot of stuff, food mostly, so she can survive.

She's a traumatized child, she's always waiting for the moment she has to escape again, she doesn't trust the people who tries to help her, including the Madrigals. She sees their gifts as a threat so she's very cautious around them at first. She's also very angry at life.

So she wants to survive alone and her plan is to steal some chickens so they lay eggs for her. She tries to steal from Diego but Lulo stops her. After figuring out a little about her he offers her a job, kinda. She works at the farm and he will pay her and feed her. She doesn't trust Diego but she doesn't have a lot of options.

When Diego realizes her situation is worst than he first thought he basically adopts her, he gives her a place at his home, takes her as his. She doesn't accept that easily, having this trauma of being always rejected and running from everywhere. They have their ups and downs, but eventually they grow a good father - daughter relationship. She never actually changes her last name to Orozco but she's known as the Orozco kid in town.

Once she's established better she trusts the Madrigals and other friends of Diego better. She develops a crush in both Camilo and Mirabel and has her well deserved queen teenager phase, and she's very supported by her very gay new dad.

Expect more of her this month!
