Thinking about Luisabel/Lumira during Surface Pressure and how Mirabel is so clearly Luisa's priority the whole time.

Luisamilo

Like a month ago the question came up of who would be best for Luisa and I thought about it and my first thought was Camilo. (Partially because I’m so deep into Brumira I didn’t even think of Mirabel lol. but also I still like this just a smidge more than Luisabel)

Actually, I’m looking through my notes and I first thought of them when I threw them together as a background pairing at random and then latched onto it because “I threw them together in the background of a joke and now I’m actually thinking about it and I love it.” 

Camilo is responsible but also relaxed and doesn't forget to have fun so he really would be good for Luisa.

She's a steady presence that can be comforting for someone always expecting to change and move. She can slow things down so he can just enjoy a calm afternoon in the moment and in his own skin. 

I can just see them basking in each others' company because they can just stand still when they’re together as opposed to the constant motion of the rest of their lives and, as much as Camilo loves the shifting and the energy, he still gets worn out when its never stops. And you know Camilo is ready to be that steady rock in turn when Luisa needs to be weak.

He doesn't ask her for things and he's able to turn into her and help with the load (at least the things that he doesn’t need her gift for). He'd be a natural reminder for her to relax and have fun. She doesn't act like he's childish or irresponsible for his antics. (And he is responsible. He spends his days looking after children and infants and looks after his mother when she’s stressed. Just because he does it with a goofy grin on his face doesn’t mean he’s any less responsible).  

I just think they could be really good for each other and they’d be that couple nobody expects but nobody questions either (not in an incest guilt way. more in a “I never noticed how compatible you are but after thinking about it for two seconds it’s clear as day” way.

Zambo mayor orders probe on the killing of soda firm exec

#PHnews: Zambo mayor orders probe on the killing of soda firm exec

ZAMBOANGA CITY--Mayor Maria Isabelle Climaco-Salazar ordered Friday an in-depth investigation over the killing of a soft drink firm executive in this southern port city. A still-unidentified gunman killed Luisabel Agustin Lee, 48, the finance manager of the Pepsi-Cola bottling plant in Barangay Culianan here, on Thursday afternoon. Salazar and Col. Rexmel Reyes, Zamboanga City Police Office (ZCPO) director, visited the victim's wake on Friday and assured the family that the local government is exerting all means to resolve the case. Reyes said Lee, who sustained a gunshot wound in the chest, was rushed by relatives to the hospital, but was declared dead on arrival by the attending physician. Investigators recovered a deformed slug at the driver’s seat while the car’s dash camera was referred to the Police Anti-Cyber Crime Office-9 for analysis. Reyes said all possible motives are being considered that could lead to the solution of the case. Meanwhile, Second District Congressman Manuel Jose Dalipe II, the victim's cousin, called on the police authorities to leave no stone unturned in the investigation. The incident happened a stone-throw away from Dalipe’s residence. (PNA)

The Madrigalcest Week prompts are finally here!

Thank you, to everyone who submitted prompts, voted, and participated in any way! This is your event. It was a lot of fun to watch the voting process from afar and bet on which would make it to the Top 7, and we can't say we're disappointed, because the prompts chosen by the community are fantastic! We can't wait to create art out of them!

The prompts are:

DAY 1: "Public displays of affection"

DAY 2: "Forbidden"

DAY 3: "Secrets"

DAY 4: "Love confession"

DAY 5: "Jealousy"

DAY 6: "Firsts"

DAY 7: "Casita, the matchmaker"

The creative process starts now! Feel free to take one, all or none of them and participate in Madrigalcest Week however you want! Remember:

N.SFW content is allowed, but we encourage everyone to tag their content properly and thoroughly. If this kind of content is reblogged or submitted to this blog, it will be tagged as "NSFC" (Not Safe For Casita).

On a similar note, this is a pro-fiction event, and all kinds of controversial, problematic and taboo subjects are welcome. As long as it is fictional, it is accepted, and will be reblogged to this blog. Just be mindful of proper tagging.

All ships under the Madrigalcest umbrella are welcome!

If you don't want to post your fanwork on your own account, you can always submit it anonymously (or not) to this blog.

You can participate for all days of the week, only some of them, none of them, make up your own prompts or interpret them however you want. This event is only for fun, and to encourage and celebrate creativity in the Madrigalcest Fandom. There are no rules (other than propper tagging).

If you would like to see your work reblogged to this post, just tag it as #madrigalcest week, #madrigalcestweek or #madrigalcestweek2022, and we'll find it. Alternatively, you are more than welcome to tag this blog if you want to make sure we see it. However, if you want to participate in Madrigalcest Week but NOT have us reblog your work, please clarify so.

You can always send questions through our inbox or DMs if you have doubts.

This is not a discourse blog. Antis looking for discourse will be blocked on sight.

Now, the elephant in the room:

The dates. There was a bit of a complication, and the voting resulted in a tie. We thought about it and decided to run a second poll to finally settle on a good timeframe, rather than handpick a date ourselves without community input. This poll will be open for FIVE (5) DAYS. The results will be published on FEBRUARY 13TH. There are only two options and, this time around, the current results are public as soon as you vote. It should be quick and painless.

We hate stretching the voting process for so long, but we thought it would be the best option. Until the date is confirmed, please operate under the assumption that the date closest to us will be selected, as to not run out of time thinking you have more days than you do.

The two options are: FEBRUARY 28th - MARCH 6th or MARCH 14th - MARCH 20th

Before voting, think about the prompts. Do you have any ideas lately? How long do you think it will take you to finish your fanwork? How long do you think it will take your fellow fans?

Ah, this doesn't have to be dramatic. The date will be confirmed in less than a week from now, and the picture above will be edited to show it.

Now, you can vote HERE.

Happy shipping! We hope everyone has a great time!

Hey! So I’ve recently started getting into Madrigalcest and honestly I think I just like any and all ships pertaining to Mirabel.

So I’m incredibly thankful for you and your blog filled with more Bruno/Mirabel than one girl could ever dream of!

But, I have to ask, do you have any romantic headcanons for some ships with Mirabel and other characters? Maybe Camilo or Isabella or Pepa?

No pressure(ha) but I’m just looking for someone to brainrot with.

Hello! Yes, this accidentally became a Brumira blog, but I enjoy most Madrigalcest pairings. And I'm with you there; I really enjoy most ships that include Mirabel. She had great chemistry with a majority of the characters in the film, so it's just easy to ship her.

I love the popular Mirabel ships, like Camimira and Isamira, but I am also a huge fan of Luisabel (Luisa x Mirabel). Right now, they're kinda like the blorbo rotating in my mind, so I don't have a lot of fleshed out thoughts about them, but I have some quasi-romantic thoughts:

I think Mirabel would start embroidering and making clothes for Luisa that represent her personality a little better. I'm thinking about the fact that Luisa apparently loves plush animals. I also think Luisa's clothing in the film represents how she is trying to fit within the role/archetype she was assigned because of her gift. I think after the film, part of developing self-care practices, Luisa would want clothing that fit her better, so Mirabel would make her things that fit her style. I'm thinking embroidered puppies, unicorns, and pastels specifically.

I think Mirabel would also try to be the big spoon as often as she can because Luisa likes being the little spoon but is sometimes afraid to ask. They're both massive cuddlers so it works out.

They do each other's hair and even makeup when the occasion arises.

In fact, I think both Luisa and Mirabel are acts of service people, so they would be very compatible, and Luisa would finally have someone attuned to her needs and help her stand up for herself. And Mirabel would have someone who wants to take care of her.

And if you like OT3s, I am also very into Isabela/Luisa/Mirabel (tagging them as Madrigal Sisters on my blog currently) and Julieta/Pepa/Bruno (tagging them as Madrigal Triplets currently).

For the Madrigal Sisters, I have some domestic, fluffier thoughts relating to the headcanon that they eventually move away from Casita and live together on a farm.

For the Madrigal Triplets, my thoughts about them are much more angst-driven, focusing on their bonding, shared trauma,* and exploring what happened to their codependency when Augustín and Félix entered the picture (my thoughts are very Bruno-centric).

So definitely chat with me about any of the ships listed and mentioned in this post. The Madrigalcest brainrot persists.

Madrigalcest Week starts tomorrow fellas! How are we feeling?

[madrigalcest-week]

The poll has been closed and all the prompts were officially chosen! Results will be published shortly. Thank you, everyone who contributed!

However, regarding the date, there was a tie. We will run a SECOND POLL to settle on a proper timeframe. This poll will be open for FIVE DAYS and the results will be published on FEBRUARY 13th, 2022. We did not want to stretch the voting process for so long, but we considered it was better than to overlook the community input and handpick a winner ourselves.

Despite the unclear date, you are welcome to start creating as soon as the prompts are revealed!

You can vote HERE. More information in the link.

Maybe ship, maybe platonic but once Luisa is able to open up about feeling overworked, Isabella likes to take her out for fun nights on the town so they could just relax and hang out, maybe get spa treatments and manicures (anachronism or modern AU? idk but manicures is like THE ultimate girl bonding activity according to TV so lmao). They could just cut loose and Luisa doesn't have always be working and Isa doesn't have to always be perfect. Sometimes they'll bring along Mirabel or Dolores too (and at least once Camillo on accident while was posing as one of them), but mostly it's just the two of them.

Someone might still ask a favor of Luisa and she'll start to do it because she's so used to it but then Isa will go "ACTUALLY this is her day off, I think you can manage it by yourself :) ".

Yes! Luisa deserves all the spa days she wants! If you don't want a Modern AU, maybe there is a naturally occurring hot spring within or nearby the Encanto that they can go to. Oh! Or like in the concept art, they could go to Isabela's garden. Regardless, yes, Isabela would definitely make Luisa take days off and treat her to something nice.

What works so well about Luisa and Isabela (ship or not) is that Isabela would absolutely help Luisa maintain healthy work/life boundaries. As the older sister, Isabela is probably especially protective over Luisa and wants to make sure she takes care of herself.
