Día de Muertos en San Cristóbal
Tumblr media
I had many time since my last picture about Isolde and Talbott. I took advantage of my streak of inspiration with the beautiful draw about Candy Vigiere and Talbott (you can see my last publish), to do one for me.
I know it's very late, (November will finish soon), but I did the scene in San Cristóbal de las Casas with Tal and Isa, on Día de Muertos' celebration.
If you read my fics or my older publish here, Tadao Hiwatari Olivares was Isolde's father, and he was Mexican born in Chiapas. He worked for Gringotts but died in the First Magical War. He was buried in his hometown (it was his wish, like the song "Mexico lindo y querido" by Jorge Negrete: "If I die far from you/Let them say that I'm asleep/and bring me here").
Since they were in Hogwarts, Isa had been talked with Talbott about her ethnicity and her traditions. One of them, of course, is to celebrate this day and commemorate her loves ones who had passed away. (She usually create "la ofrenda" -altars with offerings to the deceased-, every year since she was a child).
Winger, since they're friends, was interested about this tradition, getting more and more involved, helping her to create the altar every year since they're in 7th year. In this picture, they're nearly 23-24 years old. And Isa convinced him to make up with her like catrines: she wears a Chiapas tradicional dress and Talbott, a Taumalipas tradicional suit.
By the way, I publish a version without make-up, too.
