What about Camilo

"We don't talk about Bruno" they said, he said, and then BAM "Bruno" was suddenly back in the family like nothing happened. Well- other then their house literally crumbling and them rebuilding it. That was... fun- Also what was with all the things they said about him? He wasn't seven feet tall, and yes he had rats but for living in a wall for ten years he wasn't scary at all- just kinda musty.

Imagine instead of the whole ooey gooey family reunion, Bruno just came out as the monstrous man they'd all made him out to be. That would've been sick right?

But no~ now Bruno is the main talk of the house and Camilo is there as the comedy relief, for fucks sakes he didn't sign up to be a side character- than again he didn't exactly have a choice. He wasn't being selfish right? Even Mirabel got more attention and she didn't have a gift, she was just the ungifted cousin who somehow saved the whole family and their house. How did that happen?

Camilo sighed and leaned on his window sill. Nobody cared about him he was just the guy who annoyed everyone, and y'know that was fine, it was fun to annoy people; But~ it didn't seem totally fair. Yeah sure everyone got their powers back but for Camilo that was about all the happened, nothing had changed for him.

Mirabel finally made her mark, Isabella got out of her crappy marriage, seriously- who would wanna marry that guy? Oh yeah, his sister would- Dolores was never gonna get the end of it; yeah he was happy for her but that didn't change the fact that he was gonna tease her for it. Though it probably wouldn't be as fun as teasing Isabela- Dolores was always so quiet and her reactions weren't as fun.

Where had his mind gone? Oh yeah, Luisa had her whole "breakdown and realize that her strength wasn't her whole personality" honestly how shallow were these people? For fucks sakes Antonio literally had a pet Leopard now, how cool was that? And here Camilo was having an identity crisis like- all the time.

He was fifteen wasn't her supposed to know who he was? The whole Shapeshifting thing made it a hundred times worse too. But he was fine, totally fine, he wasn't gonna have a breakdown over something stupid, at least he had a gift... Sometimes it was cool, other times he was transformed so much that he forgot his own reflection. Also when he almost lost it and literally almost turned into a baby? That was weird, it felt weird, so yeah he was happy for everything to be back to normal but it still wasn't fair for everyone else to get their happily ever after when he was just scraping by with dumb jokes and teasing his cousins.

At least it was beautiful there right? The air was nice, the trees green, the house was super friendly too. Even so sometimes he wishes he could leave, just for a bit, maybe a week to meet some people out of the town and tell them all about his living house and magical powers- now that he thought about it if he said that they'd probably lock him up for being crazy.

He looked up and back into his room as he heard a light knock "yeah?" He replied.

"I-I'm sorry can I come in?" a quiet man's voice replied.

"Bruno?" Camilo questioned as the door opened itself right in front of him to reveal the significantly smaller than seven foot tall man.

"Hi" Bruno gave him an awkward somewhat forced smile. "S-so I've been trying to get used to the whole- living in the house thing and Uhm realized I haven't really seen you since you were like-" he put a hand much lower down "this tall."

"You mean" Camilo shapeshifted into the only person he knew who was that small, Antonio "this tall?" It should've been weird hearing someone else's voice come out of his- well not exactly his mouth, but at this point he was used to it.

Bruno chuckled "yes that tall."

Camilo turned back into himself and smiled "so~ what'd you want?"

"I dunno... can I catch up with you? I talked to your mom and dad which was nice but y'know I'd like to talk to you too."

Camila remained silent for a moment, he didn't really remember Bruno to be honest- he just remembered that one tall guy they told him was his uncle. "Yeah okay- but I don't remember you that well just to let you know-" he let Bruno come in.
