Summary
“See, after the Miracle almost died out the first time, it grew weak. The Miracle had been scarred in a sense, and with time would be destroyed completely. But my powers showed me how to fix it. I needed to go back to before the Miracle began to fall apart the first time, and keep it from ever being broken.”
It was a lot to take in, many of them had to sit down, unable to cope with the idea of their Miracle being destroyed forever.
Mirabel shared their looks of despair, before taking a deep breath and growing serious. “Tell us what we need to do, Tío Bruno.”
Older-Bruno smiled at her with a rather sad expression, like he missed her even though she was right in front of him.
Then he faced the others. “I need you all to sit and watch. You need to…see what will happen, if something isn’t fixed.”
OR: A 'Madrigal family watches Encanto' because watch-it fics are apparently what I do now.
EDIT: Just want to be clear that while I am writing the transcript myself so it's more unique to me, I do not own Encanto in any way. All rights to Disney.

Summary
Nobody needed Mirabel Madrigal. Weaver was the one they needed; the one everyone wanted. One of the protectors of New York; a local hero; a vigilante who looked over them.
No, there was no need for Mirabel Madrigal while Weaver was there.
Maybe, that’s why Mirabel had left everything behind to live wholly behind the mask.
__
OR,Mirabel has been missing for seven months now, disappearing in the middle of the night without a trace, knowing everyone would be better off without her. She now lives completely behind the mask as Weaver, the local vigilante.
Meanwhile, the Madrigals are still holding out hope that, one day, Mirabel will return. In the meantime, there’s a certain reckless vigilante they have to watch over.
