We all love "Encanto". That's no surprise. Though, I bet we've all wondered how different the story could get. If one event didn't happen, if one character made a different decision, or if the laws of reality itself weren't the same. Well...fortunately for us, the multiverse is a vast creature of endless stories and possibilities.

I've found myself writing a lot of Encanto ficlets of late - so guess I'll plunk them in here. There was a Tumblr event called #Encantober. Think of it as my HC's on steroids - mini character studies for my main fic Doors. And look I share!

When a miserable Isabela sneaks outside Casita one night, the last thing she wants is to be followed by her annoying youngest sister. Never would she think that their encounter is the very beginning of her and Mirabel's reconciliation. Slowly, Isabela comes to terms with her flawed behaviour and relearns to be an older sister. AU

Camilo figured out the hard way that his Tía Julieta's food can't heal everything. Sure, it could heal cuts, bruises, and broken limbs, but not a broken heart. Never a broken heart. And not especially when he's hopelessly in love…with his cousin. This fic has incest content so if you're not a pro-shipper then you skip this story.

About a year after the restoration of Casa Madrigal, Mirabel and her family are finally able to celebrate the marriage of Dolores and Mariano. What should be one of the happiest days in town turns into a sea of chaos when an unexpected guest enters the Encanto. How does this guest affect Mirabel's relationship with her family, and why does the guest look familiar to Abuela Alma?

Inspired by Lydia the Bard

Bruno Madrigal is bad luck and everything he touches turns to ashes. After having a vision of a broken Casita, he tells his only friend and unspoken crush that he has to leave. Unfortunately, that's not all he does. Bruno's years in the walls, trying to protect his family, are about to get harder than he ever imagined they could be. Bruno/OC, preg/child fic. Mucho angst.

"If I was you, I'd be really sad." And she was. Mirabel was heartbroken, and growing tired of the daily reminders how much she was less than. The absence of a gift pained her, it weighed heavy on her heart and filled every thought with doubt. She didn't understand it - why she was being strung along in her siblings shadows. cw- depression, mental health

A fluffy little ficlet of exactly 333 words, about the young triplets playing make-believe together in the nursery a little while before receiving their gifts.

"Cada parte de mí está equivocada. My mind, my heart, even my gift, it's all wrong." Bruno spat bitterly as he hugged his knees. Tears were streaming down his face now. "I know it feels like the world has no place for you. Por favor, Te lo ruego, don't ever give up looking for one. If you can't find a place then makeone, pero nunca te rindas."

With the ones who truly love them and a miracle candle created by their love for one another, Juano and Mirabel couldn't be happier in their new home: Milagro de Amor. When their families show up and magical trouble arises, will they succeed in saving their miracle? I do not own Encanto or any of the songs. Credit goes to Disney, Lin Manuel Miranda and all the other singers.

A candle. A living house. Magical powers. A 15-year-old girl named Mirabel. Miracles can come in all shapes and sizes, and Bruno's latest miracle may just take the shape of a 41-year-old widow named Lucía and her daughter Josefina. And – uh – maybe also a horse. [Slow-burn Bruno/OC]

In which I dump all the silly scenarios I have for this movie because I am obsessed. Most likely will have lots of Bruno but I'll try to give everyone a lil bit of focus too.

One shot collection of the Madrigal family healing, or hurting as a family. Requests open.

One-shot. The founding of the Encanto told from the point of view of the families who followed Pedro and Alma. How different could it be from the Madrigal family's point of view? The day Alma raised the mountains is the traumatic founding of a captive nation.

Also published on AO3. Female OC is an empath. She meets Bruno, starts as friendship, hurt/comfort. Shortly post-canon, but made the triplets about 40, and OC is about 30. Lots of Bruno-angst. Fair warning to all reading this story - there is no plan. I am just writing what comes to mind, when I feel like it. Usually in spurts. TW: depression, panic/anxiety, suicidal thoughts

Mirabel is sad. No, she's broken. Broken and tired of the way she's always treated, how she's always pushed aside in the dark while the rest of her family shone brightly. The disastrous night of her sister's engagement dinner was the final push she needed to send her over the edge. And now, now she's gone forever. How will her family deal with the consequences of their actions?

Mirabel forgave her Abuela, but what about everyone else? Will they forgive her as readily? What all happened during the reconstruction? How do you encourage others to move past the past? How will them not having magic then having it restored affect the family? And what about those shiny new blank doors, Casita and that brand new miracle?

Two months after Sierra disappears from Acapulco, her Tia Lee writes her a letter.

When Abuela nearly lost everything, letting go was the answer. Her death years later poses the question. Time steals sunsets and sunrises, the ones we love, the people we could be. Does it make sense to mourn while they are still here? Mirabel learns to accept loss, and Bruno learns to accept love.

In this take on Cinderella, Bruno is part of a royal family who has him live as a servant because everyone fears his gift of being able to see everyone’s future but his own. But he longs to find true love and to see the world beyond the Casita’s walls.

" She clutched and wrung onto his wrist, and with the old, solemn voice climbing up, said, "Brunito.", in a whisper. Which was what any other would call it, but Bruno knew otherwise. A whisper — no; a will of a word — yes. Bruno ripped his wrist off her terrible grip. And he was gone. He left Julieta without a will of a word. He left Julieta with her still heart, now paining. "

Y/N and Camilo have been friends for a long time but they both have feelings for each other and do not have the heart to tell each other will they ever be together? PART 1 Sorry if there is any spelling mistakes

When Mirabel and Bruno come down with the flu, Julieta is there to take care of them... With some help from Bruno's furry little friends.

After being confronted by Pepa after the Crack Incident, Mirabel is left with a life-altering injury. As she slips further and further away from her family because of it, can they catch her before she slips too far? Based on my one shot The Crash of Thunder.
