Jungkook emotional intelligence comes second only to jimin in bts, argue with the wall. It annoys me to no end when he gets treated like a stupid himbo, when nothing could be further from the truth.

I love that Bruno is basically Mirabel's Knight/Prince, whatever. ♡ He came to her rescue on a horse! About to fight his mother! Lmfao.

Oh yeah, he was totally ready to fight his mother. Makes me think about the possibility for a slightly darker au in which Alma needs a little more than Mirabel telling her off for her to understand the generational trauma she is perpetuating and how Bruno could have played into helping Alma understand the harm she was causing. (I think Bruno deserved a moment where he got to voice his own thoughts to his mother, like Mirabel). Or maybe even a villain!Bruno or villain!Alma AU. The potential this scene has! But I digress.

Personally, in my first viewing of the movie, I was hoping it was Bruno that was going to find Mirabel first. I had a very elaborate prediction/fantasy in my already mirabruno-addled mind that the similarities between Bruno and Mirabel were going to help him figure out where she was quicker than the other family members. Then they were going to have a very important conversation about prophecies, fate, and the roles Bruno, Mirabel, and the family played in the destruction of the encanto, before ultimately deciding to return to the family together. It was going to complete my romantic coding dreams, but alas.

I was a little (a lot) disappointed when Abuela was the one to find Mirabel. I understand why they did it. It was the best way to drive their message on generational trauma home, and I think that was an effective choice.

This is all to say that Bruno riding in on a horse to defend Mirabel's place and image in the family to Abuela Alma was the second best thing that could have happened for my mirabruno heart.

Random thought after blog scrolling: Spock x Uhura is DEFINITELY NOT "another forced het ship".

Actual things fellow counselors have said to me this week:

“You keep saying you’re fine but you’re crying as you say it so I don’t think you are.”

*watching a child sprint down the road to hug her mother* “Couldn’t be me. Couldn’t be you.”

“I’m so happy you got Dutch. I’m so happy for you.”

“I was so excited when I saw you on the schedule and knew you stuck it out. Like for real, it’s really inspiring to all of us to see your resilience.”

Her: “You’re always working on stuff in here. That sucks for you. Is that what you do on comp too?” Me: “That’s what I should do on comp but I mostly just cry.”

Him: “Yeah when I saw I had eight-year-olds I was like huh I wanna go home.” Me: “When I saw I had eight-year-olds I started sobbing.” Him: “Yeah I saw.”

Every time he has to leave, knowing I’m in the mental state of a moth repeatedly slamming itself into a window: “Caroline, do you need a hug before I go?”

Even if this is an AU y’all can’t imagine how happy I am for these two in particular to get the happy ending they both deserve
