Ships that I Ship: Day 133: Joaquin/Maria/Manolo

Canon: The Book of Life
Pairing: Joaquín Mondragón/María Posada/Manolo Sánchez
Canon Level: Two Are Married And The Third Is A Good Friend

Joaquín, María, and Manolo are another clear case where the answer to the love triangle should be an OT3. They're all good friends, and it makes me sad that the movie ends with Manolo and María marrying and Joaquín all alone. Yes, he still has his friends, but his love for María seemed just as genuine as Manolo's to me and now he has to watch his best friend marry the woman he loves, who is also his other best friend. The three of them seem like they have so much fun together that I can't imagine any of them would be able to stand them not being on equal footings for long.
