    Summary

    “You want to be a part of the crew? Show us you aren’t afraid, Mirabel. Show us you can fly with us.”

    Mirabel takes her leap of faith.
    After Mirabel's gift ceremony, things take a turn for the worst, and Alma abandons her outside the Encanto without anybody's knowledge. But she gets a lucky break or two. And then, one day, she sees something she's never seen before.

    A Circus.

    They are all giftless. No powers and no candle. But the trapeze can fly and the pyros can eat fire, the tightrope walkers can dance on air and the knife throwers are unable to miss their mark, the stilt walkers are taller than elephants and the contortionists can shrink themselves to fit in any space.

    And Mirabel, Miracless Mirabel, looks at these people and sees so much hope. Not a single person in the tent has a gift. And yet, somehow, they /made/ their own gifts.

    Mirabel didn't have a gift. But if all these people could create gifts for themselves, surely she could as well.
    (Or, Joining the circus seemed like a cool idea when she had nowhere else to go, and it was. Best decision of her life. But then things happen, and years later she must return to the Encanto, and try not to be recognized.)

    Summary

    On the night of Mirabel Madrigal's failed gift ceremony, Bruno had the worst vision of his life. His mother swore him to secrecy, and the two of them kept the secret for ten years.

    Except now Casita is cracking, and Mirabel, now the caretaker of her troubled uncle, is too nosy for her own good.

    Summary

    Bruno’s abilities encompass more about time than seeing into the future- not that anyone bothered to let him know. He doesn't exactly have a seer manual on what to do after you drag your dead father 50 years into the future.
    —-
    If it wasn't bad enough that Bruno's gift was going haywire, his niece had discovered him, and the casita was cracking, a strangely familiar man appears in Bruno's hideaway, begging for help and bleeding to death. He says his name is Pedro. What a strange coincidence.

    Summary

    Casita has been remade, and the magic has returned to the Madrigals! Mirabel couldn't be happier for her family and the people of the Encanto.

    But things aren't the same anymore. Bruno's back, and Abuela's trying to be better, but neither of those things change the past. And maybe the past was worse than she once thought...

    (Or: Mirabel tries to help Bruno adjust back to life with the Madrigals, and in the process, reveals just how the family has treated her over the years.)
