You know, I always wondered how Victor and Ash met and began a relationship in the first place. Especially if Ash was still hellbent on tracking down Zopilote and on the path of gaining unlimited power. I think chances are zero to none of Carla dating a “good” evil person. I can’t even see her with Alonso. Dating a Royal guard that is dedicated to protecting Avalor and dating the Royal Wizard would imply just how much Carla has gravitated towards goodness and good magic.

In the end it's up to interpretation, personally I like to think that they met because of their mutual interest in doing shady things. Mabey they met while trying to steal the same thing and then decided to work as a team to steal stuff and then it just snowballed from there. But ultimately Ash’s thirst for power was stronger than the connection she had with Victor. 

I think the chances are 0 as well, I was just speaking hypothetically. I can see the merit in either of those ships and it's cool if you ship them, but personally I'm neutral about them.

Here are some bat plushies I made earlier this year! The light pink one with the rose wings was the first one I made. After that I made the Pinkie Pie bat. These are the first plushies I've made using fleece fabric and I think they turned out really well.

Elena and Gabe for the ask game, please?

(I have answered this ask for Gabe which you can find right here)

Princess Elena

Favorite thing about them: That she's fun and friendly but also willing to throw hands. Sure, I like sweet cute princesses as much as the next person but it just feels good for her to be able to fight back as well. Her kindness and diplomacy also balance this out really well. She'll be accommodating and try to see things from other people's perspectives, and oftentimes that'll be enough to solve the problem. But if they're being truly awful and unfair then she’s not afraid to stand up for herself and others.

Least favorite thing about them: Her political policies when it comes to incarcerating and/or punishing criminals.* (Except for Shuriki, that was self-defense and justified).

Favorite line: "I don't need to be one of the kings, because I'm going to be a QUEEN!"

BrOTP: Well the 3 amigos immediately come to mind but I also believe that her friendship with Skyler is something that really can't be overlooked. He's there for her whenever she needs to pursue bad guys or just go for a nice fly.

Random headcanon: Elena has always loved horses, and ever since she was little she's always loved riding and brushing them. Another shock that came to her after liberating Avalor was the realization that all the horses that she'd had as a child 41 years ago were now all gone. She was devastated but nevertheless she would need to choose a new horse to be her personal one now that she was crown princess. When she went to the stables a certain horse immediately came up to Elena and started rubbing against her and tried to eat her hair flowers. Elena laugthed and told the horse that she couldn't have those flowers but she could give the horse some different ones. She brushed the horse's hair and decorated it with the new flowers which made the horse very happy. After that Elena knew that this was the horse for her and named her Canela.

Unpopular opinion: *I could rant all day about this, so I'll keep this brief. The palace dungeon looks like it is designed as a series of holding cells and doesn't seem fit to hold someone for any longer than a week. Also while it was never confirmed in the show one way or the other if they would have kept Victor petrified indefinitely if they didn't need him for a practical purpose, the very fact that that could be possible unnerves me. Now while it may not have not have been solely Elena's fault considering the bureaucracy, she never said anything against it either, which does not bode well for me. But this doesn't make me dislike her as a character or label her as a villain, if anything this just shows that even the best rulers can make mistakes.

Songs I associate with them: I Won't Let Go by Brothers Bright - Karma by AJR - The Whole World & You by Tally Hall

Favorite picture of them:

Elena holding a baby butter frog, after saving it from falling, absolutely adorable! 🐸🦋

Do you think Carla would ever style her hair differently from her usual hairstyle? (Personally I think she will ☺)

Yes of course! I'm sure she'd experiment with different hairstyles, especially during different festivals now that her life will be a bit more relaxed (And technically she already has tried out a different hairstyle when she was Rita, but that seemed to be more the potions doing anything else).

As for what style she might try... well she'd probably still use a lot of ribbons in her hair, because those seem to be part of her style. But maybe a style where her hair is down a bit more? (Or if Elena is going always wear her hair up now that she's queen she could always try the single ponytail look).

Do you take requests?

Yes, I do take art and writing requests, but when I get them, I am not obligated to complete them. I may choose not to do a request for whatever reason, with no explanation given. And if I choose to do them, it normally takes me a week to a few months to complete them.

Also, I just decided in order to prevent any spam or requests that wouldn't be appreciated when completed, all anonymous requests must now start their request with a reason why you like my art/writing and/or why you think I could do a good job at your specific request and/or an emotional reason why you want what you’re asking for.

The request must also but for a fandom I have posted about here on Tumblr. Otherwise, the request will be disregarded.

(You don't necessarily have to do this if you ask non-anonymously, but I would still appreciate it.) Also, asking politely with a “please” or “thank you” makes me much more motivated to complete requests.

I think that them getting married on the same day they met is both the funniest option and the most stereotypically Disney option.

Although, I feel like they would have probably gotten to know each other a little bit before they decided on marriage.

But I still think it would have been a short time considering that their kids hardly know each other after the wedding and Tilly wasn't able to make it to the wedding, which could have been for any number of reasons but the wedding being on short notice would be a possible explanation.

It is never revealed in the show how long it was between Roland and Miranda first meeting and their marriage to each other. So how long do you think it was? (I can't have an option for every possible time-frame so just vote for the one that's closest to whatever you headcannon/theorize is the time frame).

(I've been wondering this for a while now, so I needed to make a poll about it. I need to know what the rest of the Sofia the First fandom thinks of this.)

Thank you for answering my ask about Carla! It ALWAYS bugged me the way Elena handled the Delgados. They weren’t threats anymore post “The Magic Within.” The entire reason Victor was turned to stone was because he ended dark persuits. Prisons exist to keep dangerous people safe from society. Victor and Carla were no longer threats post “The Magic Within.” The idea that they would’ve been kept there forever, despite a change of heart bothers me. I also love your idea with the dog!

Yeah it haunted me after The Magic Within. I mean okay I can see why Elena and the Grand Council would be hesitant to give them a second chance, they had betrayed their trust on multiple occasions beforehand and even almost killed them, so there was some justifiable fear there.

The problem was that this time it was pretty clear that Carla couldn't be lying about this. Her father really had been turned to stone and she really was sad and all alone. Even if Elena didn't believe what Carla said about Victor wanting to change she could have used her scepter power to see what he had said. Plus she'd already forgiven others like Vestia and Cruz for the things they'd done, so it was annoying that she hadn't even tried with them.

The dungeon itself has always unsettled me. The cells are small and dark and we've never seen any proper beds or wash areas in them. Not even a pillow or a bucket. Plus if you look closely in some scenes, there are large piles of ash on the floor from the torches which could end up being a health hazard if they aren't cleaned up. I don't think it was the creative team's intent to make the dungeon look as unethical as it appeared to be, but that's how the cookie crumbles.

As for whether they would have been kept there forever, well, I guess my personal headcanon is that Elena was probably planning on creating a final ruling for them only after they had caught Ash and Esteban, so she wasn't lying when she said “I'll deal with you later.” (Still not a good policy though considering that it could have taken years to catch them).

Yes, thank you! After TMW I was watching a bunch of scenes with the dungeon to see if Carla really would be alone and I was very happy when I realized she wouldn't be seeing that in “To Save a Sunbird” it actually shows that there is also a dog in the dungeon.

This was actually incredibly comforting to know because even in the best-case scenario where Carla actually does become friends with some of the guards and/or palace staff looking after her, it's not like they could give her any true unconditional love considering the circumstances and their own judgments of her. But the dog would, because dogs are loving and adorable and pure. (All right this is straying into headcanon territory but it's a comforting headcanon).

[Here's a screenshot from “To Save a Sunbird” of the dungeon. The first arrow I added points to a large pile of ash on the floor which really shouldn't be there. The second arrow points to the dog sleeping in the foreground.]

👑🌼👸🏽, please!

👑 - Favorite character? Victor Delgado. (He's the character I draw and think about the most, so logic dictates that he's probably my favourite). At first he seems like just a mildly threatening/fun villain, but as the show progressed you start to really care about him. Mainly because he's a good dad, that is a very important thing. But I don't think he really became my favourite character until “The Magic Within,” because as the old saying goes: When you can't have something, it just makes you want to have it more.

🌼 - Favorite episode? There are quite a few episodes that I really enjoyed. So just like Elena has more than one best friend, I have more than one favourite episode. But this time I think I'll talk about “Crash Course.” Bronzino’s song was great, the subplot was good at developing Dona Paloma, and it was really cute to see the guard squad together! But the heart of this episode was Gabe and Mateo’s relationship. From them sassing each other, to their fight, to them making up and sharing their insecurities with each other, and then working together to save the day, it was great!

👸🏽- If you could write a 4th season of the show, what would you have in store for elena’s future?

Elena must have a much greater scope of political abilities unlocked now that she has been crowned Queen, so would be interesting to see some of those. I also want to see her deal with a super serious political issue the outcome of which could determine the fate of the Kingdom. Like trying to stop a corrupt kingdom/organization from going to war with Avalor. (They do have a lot of powerful magical resources,  I could easily see an unscrupulous evil ruler wanting to get their hands on them). And then Elena has to use her political negotiation skills to stop them! If all else fails she could deploy the royal guard against them and see how that goes.

Speaking of the royal guard I would want to see more of General Núñez (He probably has some extra executive powers now too) truly leading them to be the best Royal Guard they can be. Maybe there's a bit of a fallout from Coronation Day, because even though the guards had learned magic by that point they weren't able to protect the palace and the town from the shades. Maybe Gabe has to build back up their morale. And after that they train more and become strong enough to actually defeat magical monsters and criminals. Or maybe they have to fight off an attack from that corrupt Kingdom, and save the Avalor in the process. (Also I wouldn't want to see any of the guards die per se, but if one of them got seriously injured it would be interesting to see how Gabe would react to that as well…) (I could talk about this all day but this answer is getting a bit long, but if anyone wants to ask me more about it I'd definitely keep expanding my ideas on this, or what I think other characters would be doing...)

Here’s my piece for the @guidinglightzine featuring Victor and Carla! I made it alongside @lostbutterflyutau‘s wonderful fanfiction: https://archiveofourown.org/works/29487672. It was so much fun to be part of the zine!✨
