for the time being, i’ll be over on @speedchasing now with the advent of FFVII Rebirth coming out.
i will likely also be remaking my tohru adachi blog.
this blog isn’t abandoned nor going to be deleted, but my muse for ernie is low rn and i just need a temporary change of scenery. consider this a temporary hiatus for this blog, but tbqh knowing me ill be jumping in here and there to reply to stuff when the mood strikes.
Putting a pause on being nosy on Ernesto’s love life like the chismosa I am and going for a different type of chisme: his family life 🙈 Did his mom or stepdad ever try looking for him after he ran away? Why or why not? How’d they explain why they were suddenly missing a son? And did they live long enough to hear of Ernesto’s stardom? (-Skelehooty Ernesto Anon ✌️)
friend , i am very sorry i am just now getting to this ! i'm putting this under the cut for themes of child abuse / neglect and the like .
soooo . let's talk ernie's ... parents . we already know his stepdad's a piece of shit who hated ernie's guts , but his mother was a different story . truth be told , she definitely sought out ernesto for many years after he had run away , both immediately and many years after that . of course , ernesto would reject her repeatedly ⸻ as a child , he rejected her out of fear of his stepfather . he refused to live with a monster again . as a teeanger and adult , he would go on to tell her that she gave up her chance a long time ago ⸻ that she was weak and that he grew up just fine without her ( a lie LMAO you did not grow up 'fine' in the SLIGHTEST ) .
in all honesty , i don't think either of his parents hid the fact he ran away , and i think that his stepdad is a well - practiced liar , so he kind of got away with it , especially because he was known in santa cecilia as a 'man of god' , so no one ever rly suspected santiago of him being potentially abusive . he was keen on painting ernesto as a 'difficult' or 'problem child' , and swore to high heavens with ernie's mother that they've been looking for him , but that he refused to return .
in actuality , ernesto was not taken in under padre tomás' wing until AFTER he attempted to reunite him with his parents ; so it's not like he just . STOLE a child off the streets lmao . i think that to date , only tomás and héctor have seen the scars / burn marks etc. his supposed pious stepdad left on ernesto , and tomás seeing that certainly sparked quite the controversy / friction between him and the de la cruz family .
the . separation wasn't pretty ( ernesto's suppressed the memory of that time quite a bit ) , and ernesto was ultimately given up to the orphanage . but i think that in the end , ernesto's mother thought of her life with ernesto as one where only one could survive . i think she was ultimately too afraid of living the way she had to for years with a baby before she met santiago that once she became dependent on him , she couldn't bring herself to let go , to ernesto's detriment .
nowadays , ernesto thinks back on it and thinks , one of us had to leave . i was simply the one brave enough to .
of course , both of them did live long enough to see ernesto's rise to fame , and señora de la cruz ultimately did go on to buy every single record and procure every single photograph she could of him . she was ashamed of herself , but endlessly proud of him . unfortunately , this was the sole connection she ever did get to keep with ernesto .
ernesto does not speak of life before the orphanage when asked in interviews and the like . he'd rather forget santiago and maria rosa ever existed . he has fabricated an entire story that he was abandoned as a baby , and that he never got to have a mother and father , because he grew out of the system before he could be adopted . but the truth is , it is this very life before the orphanage that has driven him to do every single thing he's ever done since then .

hehe that being said i love exploring ships with ernesto ( there is lots of growth to be had, he can grow as a person but i just don’t want ppl jumping right in believing i can just. force ernie to be a non delusional individual and have him be an exemplary boyfriend … him. the guy who killed his best friend bc of his massive amount of internal issues. ) and welcome them happily - my goal is not to scare ppl away at all but to say: this man’s fucked. relationships with him are messy. he’s a massive coward. he doesn’t want to get hurt again. so he thinks if he’s the first to leave; he can’t be hurt.
ANYWAY i do miss writing ernesto dearly; i really wish to tackle some replies here tomorrow ( i’ve been neglecting my boy… and somehow this one guy’s vlog abt food markets in oaxaca, mexico woke him up??? wild ) so fingers crossed the mind cooperates bc ever since i got the flu my body has been USELESS.
you know. i’ve said quite a few things about Ernie and relationships, and while my last post about it implies he’s a player, I don’t think he’s rly the type to cheat on someone he’s in an actual relationship with - just in case there was that doubt.
instead, i’d like to clarify that by saying that Ernie isn’t the type to cheat, but he IS the type to grow afraid of commitment, or just question his partner’s loyalty to him from time to time.
that being said, i think it’s valid to point out that Ernesto loves attention, and that him finessing the public ( one must remember that a large majority of Ernesto’s fans are likely female ) is something he considers a necessary act, so it really doesn’t matter to him if he may say something charming enough to another woman even though he’s in a relationship.
a thing to note that in modern and AU verses, this example also applies to men - Ernesto is not outwardly bisexual in his main verse, as such things were still considered taboo in his particular era. he tends to keep his attraction to men under wraps.
anyway, if Ernesto broke hearts, it was largely because he was a runner. or the leaver, if you will. the women he was in relationships with adored him and bent over backwards to make him happy - but Ernesto was simply a coward.
that being said, when considering a ship with Ernesto, i can’t stress enough that this is not the muse to ship your muse with if you don’t want that friction and baggage. if your desire is to write a healthy, peaches and cream relationship right off the bat, you’re going to be severely disappointed and i don’t really recommend you approach for shipping without bearing this in mind. of course; there are instances in which relationships with him can be healthier - but these are specific and require some plotting to make it happen.

❛ 𝐕𝐀𝐘𝐀 , vaya ... ❜ purrs the musician , thoroughly amused at this claim . he's no stranger to women claiming such things ; back home , there were many women who held ... a certain fortitude about them . a stubbornness he found somewhat cute , perhaps because he couldn't bring himself to take them seriously . that suggestive run of his gaze from head to toe is surely not lost on anyone , though ⸻ he has ever enjoyed toying with a pretty girl or two . ❛ a question : are we talking intimately , or ... ? ❜
❛ 𝐄𝐄𝐇 ... i think i know very well how to hold a gun , thank you very much . i was merely toying with it just now , ❜ ernesto scoffs , annoyed glare shot from the corner of his eyes to the other .
after all , how many times has he starred as a cowboy in his movies ? sure , it was all an act , but even as a real ranchero in his youth , he knew how to shoot one if need be .
❛ what ? you think this celebrity doesn't have a few tricks up his sleeves ? i grew up in the country , after all , sir . ❜
