This is basically my headcannon for what happened on Pepa's wedding day. Bruno's "mischievous grin" was him giving an awkward and anxious smile and going as Hernando to ease his own nerves to try to be supportive of his sister on her big day.
still fully in the encanto brainrot and tumblr is enabling me so here r some headcanons around pepas wedding since it's fun& interesting to spectualte because pepas 10 years of denial and anger combined with brunos piss poor social skills and the fact the story was told entirely in the form of songs, makes them both wildly unreliable narrators (i mean that with nothing but respect. much love to them both)
keep reading for the headcanons :>
* Pepa and félix started dating first, but julieta and agustín got married first
* While they had always been a super romantic couple and got engaged, pepa and félix waited a long time for the actual wedding because pepa was so nervous about it - she's a very emotional & anxious person and was very scared of judgement from her family and the town so the idea of a big wedding with all the attention on her was terrifying
* On her wedding day she was already scared, so bruno making what he thought was an innocent joke tipped her over the edge. he can be blunt when trying to the lighted a situation and she spirals very quickly so it was the worst case scenario for a miscommunication
* With her siblings & mother's help she was able to calm down enough to carry on with the ceremony, but it was raining the entire time
* Félix didn't care, he was fully prepared for the weather to be out of control - he knows how strongly she felt about the wedding, but he was upset when he learned later how much she had broken down
* Bruno and pepas relationship wasn't all that much affected by it immediately after - they both knew it had been an innocent mistake, things like that had happened before and just continued with that sibling agreement where you dont bother to apologise and just move on, bruno tried to avoid weather related puns after that though
* However after bruno left, alma immediately started to refuse to let anyone talk about him, and pepa was so confused and grief striken but scared to feel those emotions that she had to hold on to whatever she could to make him leaving less painful
* everyone's view of bruno's leaving was very much influenced by almas perspective - she didnt do this with any cruel intent, but because when she said 'bruno didnt care about this family' she truly believed it - from her pov she asked him for a vision about the future and security of the magic, and then he went and had it and never returned. so from what she saw, he found out the miracle was going to die and so left out of fear and self-preservation (couldn't be further from the truth but you can't blame alma - she only got a small part of the story and a lot of what she thinks is clouded by paranoia about being forced to leave her home again).
* bruno overheard pepa talking about her anger over his comment at her wedding while he was in the walls, and initially assumed that she was just hiding how upset she was with anger over something that happened 10+ years ago, but it wore away at him over time and by the time he came back out he felt the need to genuinely apologise
* pepa immediately forgave him though, and after a few months of him being back their (and julietas) relationship was stronger than ever - they talk and hang out a lot :-)
* Félix only got more romantic as their relationship continued, and after bruno came back and they talked about the wedding again he got the idea that he wanted a proper wedding they could all enjoy
* He talked it over with julieta and bruno (and dolores. no point in trying to hide it from her) and proposed to pepa that they renew their vows
* He got Super into planning the renewal - pepa was less bothered and still kinda nervous for it, but he made sure it was perfect, and the ceremony was a family only event so there was no pressure
* Alma, julieta and bruno all walked pepa down the isle. Practically speaking it was very awkward but no one cared because it was so sweet
* Mirabel embroidered both their dress and the suit with little patterns and motifs in white thread - it was pepas one request beside it being family only and mirabel was so excited that they asked her
* antonio (and his jaguar) was the ring bearer and there were 2 rows of chairs at the back filled entirely with animals
thinking again abt how maybe pepas gift is slightly less than ideal. i like to think she v rarely gets struck with like. an amount of lightning that could do any amount of damage it’s only usually little zaps. but anyway i drew her with a lichtenberg figure scar bc that’s probably happened at some point right :( they look cool but Ow
Doodles for my power swap au! :> original post here
Mirabel got camilos gift and used it to make herself marginally taller than him and isabela, Camilo got dolores’ gift (hence the earmuffs), pepa, luisa and julieta got to be gift-free, so luisa and julieta take a well earned nap and pepa speed reads the saddest books she can find. Agustín got Antonio’s gift, so antonio is showing him how exactly to take care of all the animals, and dolores gets brunos powers and has probably too much fun with it
