There could also be characters who are a bit skeptical. Dolores, with her ability to hear everything, might be able to tell if the fanfiction is based on real events or just pure imagination. If it's too far - fetched, she might be less impressed. However, overall, most characters would probably see it as a form of celebration of their story and be at least somewhat entertained by it.
Well, some characters might be a bit critical. If the fanfiction strays too far from the essence of their personalities or the story of Encanto, they could be disappointed. Take Abuela, for instance. If a fanfiction shows her in a completely uncharacteristic way, she might not like it. Also, characters like Bruno might be amused to see how the fans imagine his hidden years and his relationship with the family in the fanfiction.
One interesting thing is seeing different interpretations of the characters. For example, you might find fanfiction that delves deeper into Mirabel's insecurities in a way the movie didn't fully explore. Another is the exploration of new relationships. Some fanfictions might create unique friendships or romances between the characters in the Encanto world. Also, it can be a great way to keep the Encanto spirit alive and engage with the story on a different level, especially when waiting for potential sequels or related content.
It depends on the character. Some characters like Mirabel, who is open - minded and curious, might enjoy it a great deal. She loves her family and anything that explores their stories in new ways could be appealing to her.
One of the best things is seeing different interpretations of the characters. Fanfic writers can explore aspects of the Encanto characters that might not have been fully developed in the original movie. For example, they can give more backstory to a minor character.
They might be really surprised. Some characters could be flattered by the positive portrayals in the fanfiction. For example, Mirabel might be happy to see different interpretations of her story and how she's seen as a hero in some fics.
Abuela Alma might approach it with a more critical eye. She would be concerned about how the fanfic represents the family's values and traditions. If the fanfic strays too far from what she believes is right for the family, she might not be too happy about it. However, if it shows the family in a positive light while still exploring new concepts, she could be more accepting. And Bruno, he might be a bit shy about seeing himself in the fanfic at first, but then get into it and enjoy seeing different versions of his story and how he interacts with the family in this new fictional setting.
