Okokok Mirabel has no power and we all agree that’s valid and a good plot point and we love her anyway but I was bored so here are some concepts of what I think her power could’vebeen.
LIGHT MANIPULATION
Based on the candle motives of the movie, could also be some form of pyromancy, making lanterns burn brighter, fireworks exploding in the sky and putting out bonfires with a snap of her fingers, a bonus that when she uses it she glows.
MONARCH BUTTERFLY
Could mean a lot of different things, maybe she could understand them like Antonio or Turn into them kinda like Camilo’s shapeshifting, personally, id think shed have a beautiful pair of wings on her back, gliding around town and eyes going wide at Isabelas beautiful flowers.
CRACKS IN THE FOUNDATION
Everything she touches shatters like glass, worsened by negative emotions, this one could potentially have alot of angst, Pepa and Lusia could help her cope with her strength and emotions, though im sure Bruno would appreciate a roommate.
DOORWAY TRAVEL
She opens her bedroom door, and suddenly, she’s somewhere else, Magical doors appear and disappear in walls to where she wishes or needs to go, I picture she’d be more closely in tune with the casita because of the building themes.
MAGIC MENDING
She mended her family, and have you seen that woman’s dress? Mira can mend anything with her endless spools of colourful, indestructible thread, fixing buildings and helping her mother heal her father’s wounds, all while making beautiful patterns.
Mirabel passively experiences the same emotions as her family and friends around her, She can also manipulate them with her own. (Ex. Making them happy when she’s happy) Perhaps she and Dolores could bond over getting overwhelmed by people.
I know it’s a popular headcanon that Mirabel was a preemie baby and therefore very tiny, but I personally think Luisa was the smallest baby - at least out of Julieta’s kids.
Just this itty bitty little nugget of a thing who surprises everyone by turning out to be three times the size of the rest of the family.
as soon as i learned Bruno is voiced by John Leguizamo, i thought of the opening song he sung for Moulin Rouge (2001), and it fits so well i couldn’t not do it. he breaks my heart i love him

There was a boy, a very strange enchanted boy.
They say he wandered very far, very far, over land and sea.
A little shy, sad of eye, but very wise was he.
And then one day, a magic day he passed my way.
While we spoke of many things, fools and kings, this he said to me.
The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.
Switched up Bruno’s outfit in that one drawing I did earlier and now I can’t stop drawing him in it lol I liked the idea of him wearing normal, non-tattered clothes once he gets re-adjusted to being outside the walls again.
Sidenote.. well, more of a major note. I shouldn’t even have to say this, but I’m gonna say it anyway (and I prob won’t say it again because my hope is that everyone who sees my page will understand) All of my art is P L A T O N I C.
I can’t control where this ends up or how people see it or interpret it, but let it beknown that I.. the original artist.. would rather eat an entire leather sofa than ship any of these family members together. That is all lol
