People have been asking for another/better post, or something with most of the plot points in one spot, soooo. Yup, here’s ‘AU Plot Electric Boogaloo.’
(Note: A lot of this is basically ‘how would the movie plot go’ so there’s a lot of parallels and ‘same themes.’ Sorry!
Also this got really freaking long.)
Backstory Details:
* The three main adult characters are still deceased.
* Héctor died as in canon, Imelda died of A Fever when Coco was eight, and Ernesto died, ironically enough, of food poisoning.
* Coco is raised by her uncles Oscar and Felipe, who have a little help from Ceci.
* Ceci was one of Imelda’s friends, and has basically taken it upon herself to help look after her daughter, even though she’s really awkward around kids and doesn’t know how to deal with them.
** She’s always the one dragging Coco home by the arm, finding the kid dancing in the plaza roughly three times a week.

Part/Act Two!
Now, meanwhile, Imelda already knows something’s horribly wrong. She felt it in her metaphorical gut, like she got punched and is sick on top of that.
She knows - she just knows - it has something to do with her daughter. At first she assumes Coco’s been hurt, so she’s all ready to bolt across the bridge…until the huge winged cat from earlier appears, communicating in a way that only animals and their favorite people can.
“She’s WHAT?!”
She rushes to the nearest official to put out a missing person report. They know exactly who she’s talking about, the poor kid seemed terrified! Imelda makes sure they know not to frighten Coco even worse when they do find her, to alert her immediately when they do, and you know what? She’s not going to sit around passively waiting, she’s grabbing a picture of her daughter that she took from last year and is going out to find her too.
“My poor baby must be scared half to death already!”
Cue a cut over to Coco, definitely not scared and just admiring her surroundings in curiosity and awe and “Hey, how can you guys eat? Where’s it all go?”
“Best not thinking about it, chica.”
Keep reading
Coco, blinded by tears, can’t see where she’s going. And currently, she does’’t even care. She’s too hurt, too angry, too busy frantically trying to wipe away her tears. And she keeps thinking about what she just heard, what she just found out.
