It All Comes Back is a Encanto and Stranger Things crossover fic.
Shortly after his gift ceremony, Camilo Madrigal disappeared from the Encanto. Twenty years later, Camilo Byers is running from the trauma the lab left him. However, when strange things start happening, it leads him to a small town in the Columbian mountains.

It All Comes Back contains examples of:
- Adaptational Jerkass: While most Madrigals, besides Mirabel and Camilo, are this, helping Alma go behind Camilo's back for Annie's gift ceremony, Abuela has it arguably the worst. She is now a bigoted homophobe who is willing to go behind her grandson's back to keep him in the Encanto.
- Adaptational Sexuality:
- Camilo is a gay man in this fic, and is in a relationship with Will.
- Dustin is implied to be aromantic. The tags on the ao3 release confirm this.
- Big Damn Reunion: Downplayed. For the Madrigals, Camilo returning to the Encanto is this. However, Camilo doesn't remember them so he doesn't have a reaction.
- Calling the Old Man Out:
- Camilo to the older Madrigals, especially Alma, during his fight with Alma in chapter fifteen.
- Max gets a little moment in chapter 10 for the Madrigals.
- Crossover: Between Encanto and Stranger Things of all things.
- Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: Felix and Pepa explain to Camilo the reason they stopped looking for him is because Bruno had a vision that made it look like he was dead.
- Missing Child: Camilo became this when he was kidnapped at five years old.
- Raised in a Lab: Like canon, Eleven was raised in Hawkins lab. However, in the fic, Camilo was taken there at age five and spent a good chunk of his childhood there.
