Please Take Everything You Read With A Grain Of Salt. Misinformation Spreads Everywhere Like Wildfire,

please take everything you read with a grain of salt. misinformation spreads everywhere like wildfire, and i've been having major trouble wading through false journalism to get actual updates on everything. some resources i've compiled for myself and anyone who's interested:

Luisa, awkwardly staring at Mirabel: Listen, you aren't supposed to... don't say it out loud, okay?

Mirabel: But there's nothing wrong with being thirsty?

But it's pretty accurative. Luisa is very physical (and internet says that physical attraction is sexual, so) Also I can't blame Mirabel, I'd have the same reaction if it wasn't for google

[Raula belongs to @yellowcry]

Luisa: *chatting with Raula*

Mirabel: *hands Luisa a water bottle*

Luisa: Thanks, hermanita, what's this for?

Mirabel, being aroace and missing the joke: Isabela and Dolores say that you get thirsty around Raula.

Luisa: *chokes on water*

Raula:

better than drugs

[Cursed gifts AU]

Agústin: Alright, so if we run really fast....

Luisa: I'm using a walking stick to move around, how do you expect me to run?

Agústin:

Agústin: Oh...

Possible design for your mama luisa au?

(The bag could hold arepa's and other treats for mirabel? And yes, the bag and her dress would have more embroidery on it.)

Other possible designs for Luisa that I could draw her in:

Option one

Option two (I think I like this one the best because I feel like Mirabel helped design the pants. But you can choose whichever one you like.)

Option three and four

For Mira as well

Option one

From right to left (Option 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6)

Or do you prefer their designs to stay the same?

Also, you can find the art book here for free.

Well, I don't think their dresses would be much different from canon (i don't really see a reason for them to have a different style). Tho Luisa will have some teal elements in her clothes, most likely embroidery or her bracelets as a reference to the fact that she's replacing Julieta.

I imagined Mirabel in the same way, but the sixth option looks stunning. She also will have more embroidery that references to Luisa like weights

im so tired of seeing that Ukrainians are "white privileged." WHERE. WHERE THE FUCK. JUST WHERE. Ukrainians and Ukrainian culture whas been OPPRESSED. Ukrainian language and culture has been BANNED from everything by russia CENTURIES AGO. Ukrainian artists and writers have been KILLED AND OPPRESSED AND BANNED from writing literature in Ukrainian. we are literally being KILLED just because we are Ukrainian. what the fuck do you mean by white privilege.
