Trick or treat! 🍬🍭

The two best reasons to ship anything are:

1.Incredible, deep and detailed narrative themes. The parallels that seem to hit just right, the narrative foils that they can be to each other, the intricate dynamic that's both extremely complex and easily understood. The juxtaposition between something that's harsh and undoubtedly toxic, with the softer undertones, the parts where you read in-between the lines and find a mutual feeling of loneliness from both parts, their intrinsic understanding of each other comes from the mere fact that they're each others mirrored reflections and shadows. In the end both sides will be together forever, and you as an audience can clearly see their tragedy laid out before in a path that blurs pure anguish and tender romance

2.It would be so fucking funny

I honestly think that if there were a wedding between Poppy and Rock Branch, Poppy would want to do all the planning, which would be fine with Branch, but he also doesn't want her wedding to be completely pop.

I could see that. Poppy starts making a wedding scrapbook and Branch is like "Where's the rock traditions?"

And Poppy kinda short circuits because it never occurred to her that her wedding ideas were Pop Wedding ideas, just that they were normal wedding things.

Happy reunion, right?

The struggle of finding good clothes

Hansel and Gretel's refs, aka Dipper and Mabel's initial personas, for my AU, Persona: Ad Astra!

(If you wanna see Dipper and Mabel's awakening, check here!)

A BUNCH of design notes and concept art below the cut:

My original picks for Dipper and Mabel's personas were going to be Sebestian and Viola from Twelfth Night. That was mainly because they're twins, but I don't think I made any solid concepts. It didn't click, and so I kept checking lists of fictional twins, then siblings.

When I found/was reminded that Hansel and Gretel exist, it was a shoe in. Two kids cast off to a mysterious house in the woods? It's meant to be. Besides the whole cannibalism thing.

Here are all the concept sketches I could find for Hansel and Gretel:

Eventually, I landed on a solid design for both, as seen with the color-outlined sketches above.

Next, I took the two final designs and made digital color tests:

While Hansel was cut and dry, Gretel took a LOT of color refining to end up at the final cut. Thus, we end up at the final colors, and jump straight into my attempt to render like the Persona key art from P3/P4:

It was an attempt.

You may notice that, yes, these personas HAVE been designed since January/February of 2025! Blame my lack of motivation to draw anything during the school semester. I'm better now.

More specific design notes:

The clothing is designed off of Bavarian fashion due to the Grimm Brothers being German

The candy/chocolate/sweets motif was a shoe-in. But also Mabel likes sweets, and graham crackers are perfect for s'mores, and there's a campfire in the intro, so

Meanwhile, their shirts are paper and yarn, respectively! I wanted the yarn to look like a hank or ball of yarn instead of a sweater

And speaking of yarn, it attaches to Gretel's candy cane hook because of grappling hook. I needed to represent the grappling hook. Hansel has a flashlight.

Gretel has "headphones" and an attached mic made to look like those tomato pin cushions (but pink). This is for Mabel's interest in music

In terms of referencing the fairy tale, Hansel has a sack of blue stones/candies/marbles/I-don't-know-which-it's-ambiguous because Hansel in the story is the only who leaves behind trails of stones (and then bread crumbs) so the kids can find their way back home. His belt is a chain because he is the one imprisoned

Meanwhile, Gretel has an oven because of how she kills the witch. The blue fire is a motif from Gravity Falls that will feature in the au

Hansel's hat and shoes are like a constructed gingerbread house (except with graham crackers), while Gretel's hair and shoes resemble lollipops

More personas to come! Hehehehe >:]

She tried. Anyway does this even count, it literally came to me few seconds after I posted the prev one ncnvhcjdj

It is an exquisite kind of pain waiting on my siblings (who haven't watched or seen Gravity Falls in any way shape or form apart from Bill) to reach Not What He Seems and Tale of Two Stans

So far their theories are as follows:

Stan wrote the journals and Fiddleford helped him, both of them just forgot (sis)

In addition to that Stan had six fingers once (referring to the gloves and the hand on the journals) and cut them off (sis)

Somebody is going through the portal and that's the author bcos he's investigating what happened to his journals (bro)

Fiddleford stole and hid the journals from Stan and then forgot about it (sis)

Dipper and Mabel are somehow supernatural too (bro)

Will update y'all when they reach the eps :D

About Human Bound AU…

Did Jorgen and Fairy Council ever notice that Cosmo and Wanda had disappeared?

If so, how long did they soon realized that they haven’t see Wanda and Cosmo in long time? I mean even if Jorgen had the next Godkid for them or other reasons that he couldn’t find them everywhere.

If with Godkid, I would think Jorgen had other Godparent in to replace them because he couldn’t find them.

Are they still looking around for years?

What about Mama Cosmoa, Big Daddy, Blonda and Schnozmo? Would they care?

How can Irep’s parents manage to hide their son away from Anit- fairies, fairies or Pixies?

Has Wanda and Cosmo thought if Peri born, would there have been Anti- Peri? Or they never thought, just,

BOOM

They’re gone.

Poor Irep lol! :’D

Before leaving Fairy World Wanda and Cosmo officially resigned from being Godparents. Luckily they didn't have any trouble doing since they were currently in-between kids (it had been less than a year since leaving Timmy).

When they resigned they told Jorgen that they were going on a much deserved vacation and that they didn't know when they would be back.

Masterlist

As always I will answer/address the rest of the questions and comments in different posts. Also, be sure to check out the newly made Masterlist that I linked above.

Rebecca Sugar cooked with "Character whose entire existence is devoted to the service of another character who's now dead and now they have no idea what to do with themselves except live." I love that shit. I forged myself into a tool for you and now you're gone. I'm sniffing this like a bloodhound

So like,,, Valka probably had postpartum depression or other issues surrounding Hiccup's birth, right?

Like she's a 20 year old first time mum who gives birth to a premature baby whose so small they don't think he's going to survive.

I feel like when she says she believed Hiccup would be safer without her in his life she wasn't just talking about not being able to kill a dragon even to protect Hiccup's life, but a belief that it was her fault somehow that Hiccup was born too early.
