( No Title )
I wonder if Mirabel is the favorite Madrigal for most of the town.
Because while there’s some obvious pity there for her being the only born Madrigal without a gift she’s still, well, the only born Madrigal without a gift. The only Madrigal that’s like the rest of them.
I mean clearly Encanto is a close community and they all love the Madrigal’s for how they help the town but they’re still a bunch of super powered people in an isolated place. It wouldn’t surprise me if at some point down the line they started being looked at with some fear, like what was already happening with Bruno.
It’s like that one post that talked about the potential of “Encanto Gothic” and the unsettlingness of the Madrigal’s gifts. Like there are some things that can be turned to fear or can be used the see the family as gods.
- Never say anything bad about the Madrigal’s, they will always know. Your secrets are never really secret for she hears all.
- Are you sure you really know who you’re looking at? How can you ever be sure if it’s truly your mother or friend you’re speaking to. You see your brother joking and laughing with another you down the road, he doesn’t seem to realize its not you.
- Don’t invoke the wrath of the middle triplet, lest you want a hurricane to appear at the drop of a hat and blow you away.
- Dont upset the youngest, he may be all thats keeping the jaguar from eating us all.
- Nothing can get in or out of Encanto thanks to those mountains, the Madrigal magic made sure of it.
But then you have Mirabel. Who’s giftless like the rest of the town. Who is clumsy and a bit awkward. Who reminds them that the Madrigal’s are still human. That they, while blessed with incredible abilities, aren’t gods separate from everyone else.
While the town was probably very confused and concerned when Mirabel didn’t get a gift, there was still likely some subconscious relief and a bit more appreciation for her.
