Some Coco sketches

what colour is the sky, ay mi amor, ay mi amor?

He!!!

Just watched this movie for the first time the other day. Honestly it’s one of my favorites, I cried so hard. hector is my favorite

Recently I've seen some posts with ideas for a Coco-Encanto crossover. It gave me inspiration for making one of my own:

After Un Poco Loco was released, it became a huge success (not as big as Remember Me, mind you) which left Ernesto and Héctor with quite the amount of money. While Ernesto went to buy a big mansion for himself, Héctor decided to save half of it and spent the rest in a simple wedding & honeymoon with Imelda. Where did they go? A Colombia tierra querida, por supuesto! Let's say they were given a tour of all thermal floors and one day when Imelda was buying gifts for her family, she met Alma. What's to happen between two newlywed women? A wholesome friendship, of course (low-key with Pedro's lyrics and Héctor's melodies Dos Orugitas may have come to life, but we're focusing on the wives here). When the honeymoon was over, they became pen-pals, exchanging recipes, chismecito and pregnancy tips, but suddenly...the letters stopped coming, and Héctor left.

I know this is where everything falls apart bc the triplets are 50 and Mama Coco is 108, but ignore that detail plz

Cut to El Día de Muertos 50 years later, Mamá Imelda asks 16 years old Miguel (he was 12 in 2017) to please find whatever happened with her old friend. When Miguel and little Coco (I actually can't find a reason for letting a minor travel travel to another with his 5yo baby sister, but why not) finally find Encanto, the town has no idea what to make of the newcomers. Can they let them in? Can they let them go and risk to be exposed? The answer will lie on the Madrigal family.

I'd like it to be a story of both personal growth and Miguel and Mirabel falling in love, but I'm not sure how to make it work.

Let me know what you think!
