Isabela and Dolores used to dress up as each other all the time and the adults pretended to be fooled. This stopped once Isabela dropped Camilo and now it's an inside joke within the family.
Isabela speaks fluent Greek.
First off, congrats; I learned two new words because of you(paracosm and diegetic). Second of all, I love that pretty much all the Isabela headcanons can be summed up by: Isabela is actually a little weirdo. I also really like the headcanon that she shows affection by headbutting, that's adorable and, for me, relatable. Third: headcanon: Isabela sneaks out at night to walk in the jungle because there's no way she could do so during the day and she loves night-blooming flowers(esp. cereus!)
Isabela gives off lil weirdo vibes!! And i'm projecting! In all honesfy, i didn't know affection via headbutting wasn't a common thing until i posted the hc? Like its just something ive been doing so long that it had never occured to me that other people dont do it.
Its just a fun low energy way to show my affection!
Isabela actually wears glasses, too, she just switched to contacts when she had to be perfect. Now that she doesn't, she's back to the glasses!
Even though she got her gift back, Isabela has a small garden she tends to by hand with her sisters; she secretly makes sure Mirabel's plants always have the brightest colors and Luisa's are always the tallest ones.
Out of the extended families, Isabela is closest to Pepa because they are the most similar. Pepa also taught Isabela how to dance. Dolores is closest to Julieta because their powers work together like a hand on a glove. Dolores can alert Julieta of someone who has an ailment in advance, and Julieta helps Dolores by cooking her her favorite food when her ears are dying and bleeding. Also because in the original concept of the movie Dolores had what is now Julieta's power.
Isabela and Dolores go bike riding together.
Isabela loves Studio Ghibli films! She watches them whenever she's upset or just needs to relax
No two people in the family have the same music taste. All their music vastly differs and none of them can stand the other's
which encanto character do you relate to the most??
oh! and what’s your favorite food and drink?
I relate most to Pepa and Isa! It's just something about forcing yourself to feel and act a certain way to keep everyone around you happy, yknow?
My favourite food is rouladen, which is pretty much onions, mustard, pickles, and bacon wrapped in beef and for drink it's either any kind of fizzy drink or root bear float!
Isabela makes multiple twitter accounts purely to start shit. Discourse is her favourite passtime
How to tell if they're lying!
Julieta -> She rubs her hands together. It's how she sooths herself, so during a conversation if there's ever a doubt with what shes saying and she's rubbing her hands? 80% chance shes lying
Pepa -> She makes a conscious effort to make eye contact. She heard once that avoiding eye contact makes you look guilty and immediately went to do the opposite. Only problem is that otherwise she never looks anyone directly in the eye because it makes her uncomfortable
Bruno -> He's not a good liar. He'll either break after 3 seconds or he'll try to rapidly change the subject. It's part of the reason he left instead of telling Alma he didn't see antthing
Isa -> She twirls her hair, blinks an absurd amount of times in a minute
Dolores -> On the other end, Lolo stops blinking
Luisa -> Her eye twitches, much like in the movie
Camilo -> Small stuff, like hos smile being just a bit too big or him overshooting a step ever so slightly and having to adjust his weight to balance again
Mirabel -> With Mirabel, what isn't a tell? Her most obvious one though is that she's never quite sure what's an appropriate amount of energy to use to not seem suspicious, so a lot of the things she does are either way low energy or way more energetic than normal
Antonio -> Dolores has 100% told him that his ears turn red when he lies so now whenever he's lying he just covers his ears
Isa is too embarrassed to admit it, but she still watches kid cartoons like the backyardigans and pajanimals
Isa gets really into hair after the movie. She'll dye her's all sorts of crazy colours and her sisters are more than happy to let her style their's as well!
When she was younger Isa would just hang on her father's arm or shoulder as he went about his day. He always made a concious decision to avoid getting hurt or in any inconvenient situations whenever it happened (with varying amiunt of success)
Isa chews on ice. There's not really a reason. She just likes the crunch
Isa will act disgusted whenever faced with any kind of physical affection but really she just,,, melts
