#Concetta Aragosta

[brunosaderogatory]

Thinking hard about the Aragostas. They had been living in Portorosso as closeted sea monsters for how long?? They must have their own story, too. A story of going to the surface and discovering the dangers for themselves and working in ways to stay safe and enjoying living in the human world when everything around them told them that they would be killed if found out, just like Luca and Alberto, but for how many years?

Probably decades. Probably longer than most Portorossans had even been alive.

And then in comes these two boys, sticking out like two sore thumbs. No shoes, weird clothing, fish smell, horrible understanding of general phrases and social cues— Did they see themselves in them? Surely, maybe, they recognized the boys as seamonsters before anyone else, because it really was so obvious.

And did they know their names? They could have. They have a relative below-surface that Luca is familiar with. I wouldn’t be surprised if Libera was one of their friends. And they’re quite nice to the boys when they are revealed; Massimo even had them over for dinner. And the Aragostas are shown to be particularly fond of Alberto, as seen in the short.

And could they have done things for Luca and Alberto as well? Could the purse-slapping be a way for them to sneak them in on some social cues? Could the women have charted Luca and Alberto through their time in Portorosso, making themselves present when possible (and not too suspicious)?

Like, goddamn, man. I wanna know more.

Did Mrs Marcovaldo, Mrs Marsigliese and the Aragosta Sisters Concetta and Pinuccia hold Miraculouses when they were younger?

PS What are Lioness' (Giulia), Triton's (Alberto) and Sea Star's (Luca) main superpowers?

Mrs. Marcovaldo was the previous holder of the Lion Miraculous. I had never considered if the Aragosta sisters had Miraculous', but that sounds like a really cool idea. I'll think on that.

Lioness has a fire claw attack where her clawed gauntlets catch fire and she's able to deliver a very powerful hit.

Triton and Sea Star's powers are two halves of a whole, and one is useless without the other. Sea Star has the power of Flood, where his shield will become an endless overflowing basin of water. Triton has the power Tidal wave, where he can direct existing water with the tip of his trident into a powerful jet, like a fireman's hose on crack. Without Triton to use the water, Sea Star can only make a big puddle, and without Sea Star, Triton can only direct small bodies of water like from fountains or rain runoff, and that ends up being the combat equivalent of throwing a water balloon.

Luca, teoría. La familia hibrida.

Una de las escenas finales en la película de Luca es cuando, después de que los niños ganaran la Copa Portorosso, se les organizó una pequeña fiesta en el patio de la casa de Giulia. Y aunque muchos niños del pueblo estaban encantados con la victoria de Luca, Alberto y Giulia, en realidad pocas personas entraron al patio a la fiesta. 

Los invitados a la reunión eran obviamente la familia de Luca; sus padres y abuela. Pero junto a ellos habían otras cinco personas: Las hermanas Aragosta, un anciano, el niño del helado y la señora Marsigliese (a quien en el doblaje latino le cambiaron su nombre a “Mastroianni).

Pero, ¿y si hay una especifica razón por la cual ellos están ahí?

Hablemos primero de las invitadas que no necesitan mayor explicación.

Todos recordamos a las hermanas Concetta y Pinuccia Aragosta, dos ancianas que resultaron ser monstruos marinos, las cuales, asumimos, han vivido en Portorosso junto a los humanos por muchos años ya.

Es claro que fueron bien recibidas en la fiesta al ser monstruos marinos también. Entonces, ¿qué hay de los tres humanos que están junto a ellas? ¿por qué fueron invitados específicamente? Quizá tal vez estén más relacionados a todo este asunto de los monstruos marinos de lo que pensaríamos. 

Mi teoría es la siguiente:

El anciano que está en la fiesta sería el esposo de una de las Aragosta, lo más seguro es que se trate de Pinuccia, la hermana más alta. Esta pareja tendría una hija, quien sería la señora Marsigliese, y ésta a su vez tendría al niño del helado como hijo. Estas cinco personas forman parte de la misma familia.

Suena descabellado pero no es una locura pensar que las Aragosta hayan formado una familia después de tanto tiempo en Portorosso.

Aquí hago un inciso. Como teoría a parte, ¿quién es este anciano que vemos en la fiesta y no es relevante en otra parte de la película? 

Teorizo de que se trata de el señor Bernardi que Giulia menciona, el viejo que ella dice que le presta su telescopio. Incluso si descartamos la teoría de que este hombre es pareja de Pinuccia, que él sea Bernardi da sentido de por qué es invitado a la fiesta.

En fin, sobre su relación con Pinuccia, es bastante probable que este señor y ella se encuentren separados, debido a que durante la película se les puede ver a ambos en diferentes casas.

Sin embargo, se ven muy cómodos al lado del otro durante la fiesta, por lo que o siguen juntos y Pinuccia sólo hacía una visita a casa de su hermana o se separaron amistosamente.

Continúenos con la teoría principal.

De ser verdad que estas personas están emparentadas, eso significaría que la señora Marsigliese ya sabía de los monstruos marinos porque su madre y su tía son monstruos marinos.

Eso explicaría por qué cuando Luca y Alberto mostraron sus verdaderas formas, Marsigliese no mostró miedo o fue hostil como la demás gente en Portorosso, más bien se mostró bastante indiferente ante todo el asunto.

Incluso cuando los nombró ganadores, en ella no había ni una pizca de sorpresa. Aunque previamente no sabía que Luca y Alberto eran monstruos marinos, esto no le impresionaba en lo absoluto.

Hablemos ahora del niño del helado. Teorizo que es hijo de Marsigliese, sin embargo no tuvieron otra interacción en la película a parte de que están parados uno al lado del otro en la fiesta. Por otra parte, esto obtenemos en los créditos finales:

Y esto en el corto Ciao Alberto:

Aquí vemos no sólo que está creciendo una amistad entre él y Alberto, sino que el niño del helado suele pasar tiempo con las Aragosta. Según esta teoría, ellas serían su abuela y su tía abuela. De ellas el niño heredó su obsesión con el helado, suena razonable.

Y hablando de herencia, hablemos de genética.

No sabemos cuál era el color de cabello de Pinuccia antes de que lo tuviera grisáceo, pero basándonos en el color de cabello de su hermana Concetta, el color de cabello de Marsigliese pudo haber salido de ese lado de la familia. Y al igual que Pinuccia, Marsigliese tiene el cabello lacio.

De parte del hipotético padre, Marsigliese obtendría sus distinguibles ojos verdes.

Ahora sobre el niño del helado.

Sus ojos son similares al color de ojos de su abuela y tía abuela, su cabello castaño y rizado es el mismo de su tía abuela, su nariz es similar (mas no igual) a la de su madre.

Además, curiosamente, tanto Pinuccia, como Marsigliese y el niño del helado tiene el color amarillo en sus vestimentas, lo que, si rebuscamos, sugiere una conexión.

Esa es la teoría. Estas cinco personas son de la misma familia. Marsigliese y el niño del helado tienen sangre de monstruos marinos, son híbridos, mestizos. Por supuesto, su sangre mezclada les impediría transformarse como lo haría la gente marina de sangre pura.

De ser cierta esta teoría, significaría que cuando un monstruo marino se transforma al subir a la superficie el cambio no es sólo superficial, no son sólo pulmones funcionales los que aparecen, sino que obtienen lo necesario para poder reproducirse con los humanos.

Una última cosa. Existe una Aragosta más. La señora Aragosta que Luca saluda al principio de la película. Ella no comparte ninguna característica en común con las hermanas Aragosta, por lo que es posible que sean familiares lejanos.

Es sólo una teoría.

I really don’t want to be that guy but I think the two elderly women at the end of the movie were sisters, as their character names are Concetta Aragosta and Pinuccia Aragosta... the actress who voiced them in the Italian dub also have referred to them as sisters.

I’m sorry guys, I thought they were wives too 😢

(Please if someone has more information share it)

THEY’RE SISTERS?!

[anchoviesinthenightsky]

Wait, what if the towns people after discovering Luca and Alberto are sea folk who hid as people, go around doing that to everybody.

Noooo that would mean the lesbians (I forgot what we named them) would be taken 😭😭 or they’d have to vanish

yeah!!! I feel like step one would be looking for other humans disguised as humans. and step two would be to go looking for them in the ocean?

but yeah shit. idk what would happen them. maybe they'd join the marcovaldo/paguro search party or something like that?

And I believe we've started calling them Sophia and Caterina Aragosta! (I'm not sure we established who was who, but I pictured the shorter one as Sophia)

#ask box #i looked it up! #and aragosta i believe is the cannon last name for them #while looking up the spelling for the last name i saw that one of the screenwriters for luca mentioned that they were named #concetta and pinuccia aragosta #but hey. if it's not the text. it's a hc #i like sophia and caterina better

[spookberry]

The elderly sea monsters are apparently named Concetta and Pinuccia Aragosta (the names appear in the end credits). I was browsing TV Tropes the other day and apparently they're meant to be sisters, but I can't find an actual source that states they're specifically related. The art is still really cute, though!

Thank you for giving me some names lol.

It's weird though, if none of the creators have said that they're related then why is this such a prevalent rumor? There's literally nothing in the movie to suggest they're related, you don't even know their names just by watching the film cuz they're such background characters.

#alas homophobes will use anything to make queers not appear in media #honestly I did not understand what this ask was saying until I got to the word sisters #like i was pure confusion #'what is this and why am i being sent this' lmao #i figured it out tho at least #ask #luca

Hey yo can I get a slice of uhhh……

Anything unposted of cliffs edge

You're gonna have me post this whole thing in snippets before I can get it finished haha. Then you'll have a fun puzzle, too, in piecing together the order! Enrichment activities for all the people lost in this cyberhellspace<3

Luca grabs the keys out of his hand and reaches around him to slip it into the lock. “So impatient,” Alberto chastises and untangles from his embrace to open the door. He pauses in the doorway for just a moment and Luca recognizes that look. They stare at each other for just a second, before they both start running, pounding footsteps and childish giggles echoing through the stairwell.

When they reach the fourth floor - Luca with a bruised shin from Alberto’s attempt to slow him down by shoving him into the railing (and almost toppling over - held in check by a fierce grip on his shirt. They’d stared at each other panting and terrified for just a moment, before Luca took off again), Alberto wheezing from where he’d been kicked in the ribs - it’s toe to toe, but neither has the usual mind to argue.

Luca’s hands are trembling as he fumbles with the keys, not helped by being wrapped into a tight embrace with sloppy kisses to his neck, hot breaths tickling the shell of his ear. He giggles and begs him to stop, but only gets a playful nip and one word in response, revenge. After a couple of seconds too many, Alberto growls into his skin and it’s like a lightning bolt right down his spine. He almost drops the keys, thankful when Alberto takes them and finally gets the door open, almost stumbling over him in the rush to get inside.

Luca wastes no time, turning to press Alberto against the door but he’s too fast, the door’s not closed yet, and he only succeeds in pushing him back into the hallway and they crumple to the floor in a pile, howling with laughter.

He jumps off his boyfriend with a loud shriek when the door across the hall opens, revealing the crass face of Concetta Aragosta glaring daggers. She doesn’t even say anything and that somehow makes it even worse - the heavy air of shared acknowledgement that all three know exactly what’s going to happen in four minutes, exactly how many times that has happened the last week, exactly how many times the Aragostas have filed complaints against them the past year - but seems satisfied with their falling, sheepish expressions and fervent mumbles of apologies and slams the door shut.

#skypiefics #skypiechats #In which I take liberties with where the Aragostas live bc it was too funny to me to pass up #also they might complain and grumble but they do prefer having their gay fish boy nephews close rather than a boring human straight couple #Why must you always ask for my most beloathed wips though #cliffs edge tag #skypiesnips

Alberto was a storm quietly brewing beneath a thin façade of calm. His pinched brow and  frown being the only signs of his mulling, his stewing, as the sun beat with ruthless fervor down across his back, already peeling and burnt, while he rowed back to Portorosso. To the real world. A life that made sense, one filled with humans and cars and houses, a bustling busy that progressed as the town woke up.

One that wasn't made for him.

He looked back to the island as he pushed the oars roughly in front of him, rowing back, and grimaced without thinking at the crumbling tower at its top. Signora Aragosta had told him that island belonged to her and her beloved, a haven for a young girl and her sea monster to sit and talk and discover themselves. He had stood in the remains of that tower, only hours before speeding down the steep, grassy slope of the island to Luca, his sea monster, and observed what little traces of their lives that were left. Children's books with frayed spines (when Signora Aragosta had told Alberto she'd taught her how to read) cracked flower pots with their centers hollowed out and small inscriptions Alberto could carefully trace on the convex cobblestones of the tower wall. Writings, words and phrases and, Alberto realized with a flush of heat, love poems that her Concetta had scribbled in messy, mostly-faded scrawl along the stones. But there were other parts of the tower, less beautiful signs of aging. Mounds of tree branches and rubble dusted over the tower floor, where time and bad seasons had caused parts of the inner walls to cave in. Sunlight drifting through the insides, illuminating those professions of love along the walls and warming Alberto's toes until he had to pull them away to stop thinking about it.

She said that they loved that place...so why did they abandon it so quickly? It was a different time then, Alberto must have known, but even still the sea folk and the human world were unable to coexist--let alone love each other.

His muscles gripped and shuddered in his stomach involuntarily and Alberto clenched the oars to keep his lips from trembling.

Then again, Alberto mused with little humor as he continued to row and glare into the waves, she had said a lot of things, but none of her comforting words had prepared him for what had really happened.

At this time in the afternoon the waters were calm, just a lazy caress on the boat's sides like old lovers and cast dim reflections of the sun in alternating lines of cyan along Alberto's forearms. The gentle waves were endless, if Alberto looked down he didn't think about his face staring back at him but rather what was beneath the surf, or more so who.

Was what Luca had done, what he had said, the same as those words on the tower walls?

His behavior was so...animal. It wasn't like him. But did Alberto truly know what to expect from someone that wasn't human?

Something landed into the ocean with an inaudible plink and Alberto saw in the reflection of the deep waters that he was crying. He hated himself for what he had felt, only an hour earlier. Absolutely dreaded thinking over it.

Luca's touch, so curious and bashful in the beginning. That was normal, that was something Alberto could understand. He had only grinned at their playful banter back and forth, like they'd used to. But as soon as he'd let his stupid fingers wander just to touch Luca's scales he knew every second after that moment was going to happen much too fast.

Alberto didn't even know what he was doing at the time, or why he chose to torture Luca like that. The boy was whimpering at his hands on him and had practically collapsed into Alberto's lap, so obviously it was only fair that Luca had freaked out and went full on sea monster. All he heard in his ear were Luca's uneven breaths mixed with his own, and the warm press of his teeth on his neck, with just a trace of saliva from Luca's tongue.

His stomach twisted at the memory, making his legs ache and that dull throb return in his shorts.

"Damn it," Alberto huffed, closing his eyes tightly and breathing through his teeth.

Alberto didn't know what he meant himself, when he pushed Luca off of him either. His own reaction to the touches had surprised him so thoroughly that he was afraid of what would have happened if he'd let it continue, and let Luca's words sink into his brain and maybe his skin, too.

Portorosso was fast approaching, and Alberto hopped off one side of the boat, tugging it along in the shallow waves to moor it to the dock. He tied the ropes in haste and bit his tongue when the old cord rubbed painfully along his already-sore palms.

"'Berto! You idiota! You couldn't hide from me for long!"

Alberto jumped at the voice, immediately thinking of Ercole, but as he looked up from his raw hands he only saw Giulia above him at the metal railing, waving her arms around.

"I wasn't hiding from you!" Alberto called up. "I was...out doing something!"

His word choice made him cringe. Giulia narrowed her expectant brown eyes and reached out a hand once Alberto had walked up the stone incline to greet him. But instead of a hug, Giulia used Alberto's hand clasped in her own to hold him steady and slap his cheek.

"Shit! What was that for?" Alberto cursed, freeing his hand in a jerk and pressing it to his hot cheek.

"For keeping secrets from me! Papa told me all about your girlfriend!" Giulia was near-shouting, and a few people wandering the streets turned. Alberto's face reddened another degree, if the handprint left by Giulia wasn't enough to show for it.

"She's not my girlfriend, Giulia!" Alberto spat. He craned his neck over at the boat just to double check then followed her down the seaside railing to their house.

"So what, you made up a fake girlfriend then to fool Papa? Is that it, Alberto?" Giulia looked at her brother out of the corner of her eye, smiling to herself. Her tone was light, so Alberto had no need to worry that she was being serious...probably.

Alberto spluttered. "Why would I lie to Papa? When have I ever lied to you or him, ever?" His heart was beating at a frantic pace in his chest, and if Giulia saw the sweat on the back of his neck he was done for.

"Let's see," Giulia stuck her tongue between her teeth, then counted off her fingers. "You lied about the orders that one time just so Papa let you go play soccer in the courtyard...you lie about your chores all the time. I think the amount of times he lets you get away with it is worse though."

"I do not lie about my chores! How can I lie about those when he sees the numbers every evening?"

Giulia swatted the air, and then actually swatted at Alberto, before letting out a shriek.

"Oh! Did I tell you that Luna, Machiavelli's mistress, is going to have kittens!" She splayed her hands out in front of her to emphasize the excitement, and it was just like her to lose her focus even if it was originally about teasing her own brother.

Alberto shrugged. "Papa isn't going to like it."

"Papa will come around in time, fratello. Besides, Luna's owner was very...understanding."

"Oh?"

Giulia nodded, her cheeks were flushed from her anger and the summer sun, but instantly darkened. "Yeah. There's a girl who lives a few houses across from us, by the Gelataria with her aunt. We met last week, but I saw her again this morning when her cat was looking for Machiavelli, but he was pent up in your room, cause you're stupid and left the door closed."

"Machi actually likes my room, unlike yours." Alberto said indignantly.

"I wouldn't call that liking. I think he tolerates being around you because you feed him."

"Ugh, Giulia! Stop changing the subject and just tell me about this stupid girl and her cat!"

Giulia flung out her hand and punched Alberto in the gut. "She is not stupid. She's...she's..." She trailed off, looking at the sand stuck between the stones beneath her sandals.

"Lovely."

"Giulia, you're blushing."

"Yeah, so?" She countered, glaring up at Alberto with her cheeks a deep rouge. "She's pretty. But you wouldn't understand...I don't think, um, Papa would approve if I liked her. As more than, you know. A neighbor."

Alberto felt so relieved he could cry. But he laughed instead, a short nervous giggle that dissolved into a long, airy chuckle that came from deep within his tightly-wound heart.

"What's so funny, hmm?: Giulia, despite her height, tried to size Alberto up by shoving his shoulder and leaning forward to get into his space. "Y'know, I wouldn't have told you if you were just going to laugh at me."

"No, Giulia! This, this is perfect!" Alberto didn't know exactly what he was doing, but all of his previous tension ebbed away as he took Giulia's hands and squeezed them with glee in his own.

"Me having un cotta with the girl across the street?" Giulia frowned at him.

"God, no." Alberto laughed, bringing his sister closer to look into her eyes and make sure she was listening. "Lucia isn't...uh, she's not, she's not a girl."

Giulia's light eyebrows were pulled low at that, as she curled her lip up in confusion and stared at Alberto's face. "What do you mean? Lucia can't not be a girl, her name is...oh....Oh. Alberto! You really were lying to Papa!"

He figured that was enough confirmation of Giulia's understanding and nodded slowly. She placed her palm where she'd slapped him and rubbed her thumb along the welt, breaking her gaze away to think.

"For once, I think I'm okay with you lying," Giulia mused. "But just this one time, Alberto! And I mean it! You'll have to make up for it by letting me meet him. What's his name, anyway?"

"You didn't tell me her name, so why should I tell you his?" They were standing outside the gate of their backyard, but Alberto stood in the way of the latch and beamed down smugly at Giulia.

"It adds mystery, alright big guy? Maybe I like that you don't know her name. Then you won't tease me about it."

"Fine then. I won't tell you Luca's name either."

Giulia beamed. "Luca! What a beautiful name! I bet he's very handsome, Alberto."

He bit his tongue and jammed one free hand into his pants pocket.

"N-No! I didn't say anything," Alberto gasped and clamped his hand over Giulia's mouth. "Don't tell Papa okay? I'm not...I don't think I'm ready."

Giulia licked Alberto's palm with a devilish grin and he groaned in disgust and pulled back.

"That's okay, I'm not really ready either." Giulia grabbed Alberto's slobbery hand and guided them into the side yard, swinging their arms.

So pretty...you smell so good, Alberto.

He almost stopped in his tracks, but Giulia was pulling them along so he trailed behind her, attached by their intertwined hands.

Luca's tail had twined around Alberto's ankle in such a quick and demanding way he felt his breath catch.

Please. I need you.

The words still trickled through his head, and soon the phantom feelings returned too. Cool scales dripping in sea water soon replaced by the feeling that Luca was burning up, swallowed whole by his own desperate pleas and touches.

"You okay, Alberto?" Giulia had stepped into the house, but Alberto's feet were pressed to the stone steps, unmoving. He thought that he could hover here at the threshold of the doorway with Luca's scent still lingering on his skin and the immense weight of odd passion forever, just so he didn't forget. Was this what Signora Aragosta had talked about when she first knew? When she first knew?

Alberto shook his head for Giulia, smiling and apologizing. "Yeah, we're good."

[tending-the-hearth]

@queen-with-the-quill posted about her WONDERFUL Luca OC Sofia, so I thought it would only be fair if I posted about my own Luca OC, Angela!

(@hilli98215 just in case you're interested as well!)

Name: Angela Aragosta, she/her

Family: Concetta and Pinuccia Aragosta (her nonna and nana),

Friends: Sofia Anguilla, Giulia Marcovaldo, Luca Paguro, Alberto Scorfano

Age: 14

Nicknames: Angie (everyone around town, particularly Luca), Angel (Giulia, and only Giulia), Gosta (Alberto and Luca, she'll punch anyone else who calls her that and Angel), Gilly (Alberto, and only Alberto. Ercole tried calling her that once to tease her and she threw him into the ocean), Nipote (Concetta and Pinuccia)

In her sea monster form, Angela's shape is similar to Alberto's, lanky with gold scales for her hair, and gold markings under her eyes. In the water, her eyes are completely yellow. Out of the water, Angela has tan skin, black curly hair, and hazel eyes.

Angela lost her parents at a young age because of a storm, and spent quite a bit of time alone before her grandmothers found her and took her in. During the storm, Angela's hearing was damaged, so she mainly communicates through sign language, and can read lips.

She goes to school in Genoa, which is where she meets Giulia and becomes very close friends with her (and develops a bit of a crush, which unknown to her, is reciprocated by the curly redhead), and like her grandmothers, Angela keeps her head covered at all times whenever it rains, and only goes out to sea when she knows it's safe.

Her personality is more of a quiet one. She has anxiety, due to the fact that she was lost from her parents at a very young age due to a storm, and she spend a lot of time alone before her grandmothers found her. She and Giulia have created a specific system of signs that only they, and later Sofia, Luca, and Alberto, know and use.

Angela's sort of opposite to Luca: she knows quite a bit about humans, knows how to use her human form, but doesn't know much about the sea or how to swim in her sea monster form. (I imagine her helping Luca and Alberto when they first arrive at the town without knowing they're sea monsters).

Giulia doesn't know that Angela is a sea monster, so her reaction to Alberto's real form would break Angela's heart, and I imagine Angela would only reveal herself at the very end of the race, when Giulia falls off of her bike, solely because she wants to make sure her friends are alright. Giulia takes it well, obviously after seeing Luca and Alberto, and the boys are elated to have another sea monster friend!

Once Luca accompanies her and Giulia to Genoa, I can definitely see the two of them bonding over their different lives, and helping to fill in the gaps in each other's knowledge of the surface and the sea! Luca and Angela become quite close, and see one another as siblings. Luca loves having an older sister, and Angela loves being able to share her knowledge of the humans with her younger brother!

She and Sofia ( @queen-with-the-quill's Luca OC), are close friends, and see each other as sisters, as Sofia is also close to Angela's grandmothers. She's the first one to know about Angela's crush on Giulia, and is one of the first people who manage to help Angela conquer her fear of water, which is something that keeps her from returning to her sea monster form.

Angela's design is actually really meaningful to me, as my mother's side of the family comes from Italy, so I took the colors from my grandfather's family crest and used those for Angela's sea monster design!
