He's so goofy looking. Why are his cheeks built like that?! 😭

I don't even know if it actually looks like him at this point.

[mexigum]

When you're too broke to buy merch so you gotta make your own 😭

I think I underestimated how pale that shade would make him look. Imma just trust the process

Imma just...

oc asks that reveal more than you think

Do they sleep with a stuffed animal? If they have multiple, who’s the favorite?

Can they take care of a plant? What about a pet? What about a child?

Ask them to describe their love interest.

Do they look good in red?

Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Will they give one, and what about?

Who will they take advice from, no matter what it is? Who won’t they take advice from, no matter what it is?

Describe them in three words. Now let them describe themself in three words.

Do complex puzzles intrigue or frustrate them?

Do they empathize with non-sentient things (dolls, plants, books…)?

What age do they most want to be right now?

They’ve won the lottery. Spend, or save?

Do they like romance in the books they read (or in the book they’re in)?

Name one thing their parents taught them.

Would they agree with the term ‘guilty pleasure’? Do they have any?

What would they consider a waste of time– other than school or work?

If money wasn’t a limit, what would they wear?

Do they like children?

Kissing: tongue or no tongue?

Do they study before tests? Practice before job interviews?

What do they like that nobody else does?

What would it take for them to break up with someone? What would be the last straw?

Do they like being called pet names? Do they call other people pet names? What’s their go-to?

Stability or novelty?

Honesty or charity?

Safety or possibility?

Talent or effort?

Forgiveness or vengeance (or…)?

Would they date a fixer-upper?

What recurring dreams do they have?

What would they do if they knew it would be forgiven?

[mexigum]

yes.

I was scrolling through my fic drafts when I remembered this AU I was masterfully crafting a few months ago. I'll probably never finish writing it so I drew it so I can share it here to see if anyone gets my vision.

Basically, after the Axolotl thing, Bill revives in the past Gravity Falls taking the form of a cyclops kitten, and he is NOT happy about it. Ford, who just arrived and is ecstatic about the anomalies, finds him and takes him with him, giving him a name and everything (even if he's an absolute nightmare of a pet, destroying everything he can and being agressive). Bill wants to recover his old form and power or at least quit being a dumb house cat, so he realizes he can manipulate Ford again and use his investigation to discover some way out. The problem? He´s lost his infinite knowledge and can´t even write any human language, so he'll struggle to communicate with Ford.

And that´s pretty much all I had thought for it back then. It didn't get very far lmao. I guess my intention was to kind of redeem Bill like this, as that's what Axolotl revived him for. But yeah, that was the idea. It was going to be a mostly comedic fic with some developing friendship (my fav thing to write). It's a pity I'm awful at consistency.

Re watched Trail To Oregon for the 20th time lol and felt like drawing fan art of Craphole. Frickin love this musical and the cast. I feel bad for Craphole in this scene, he's just a baby 😭

My lil sister just showed me the Mystery Shack she build from scratch using pizza boxes and I'm literally so proud of her that I have to share it here
