So it’s offically been about a year since I started this blog. I joined this fandom near the end of the show, so I’ve seen a lot of people come and go, but BOY did I not expect to get this fair. Even if things are slowing down now, I have an unreal 959 followers, several of whom are still active. And I plan to continue to be one of them, I ain’t going anywhere.  I’ve met SO many lovely people over the past year, I couldn’t possible begin to cover it all in a single post.

However...

There are some members of this fandom that have made an especially big impact on me. You guys have been a joy, an inspiration, and a pleasure to interact with both IC and OOC, so I want to say a few words about each of you now in one big, disgustingly mushy post.

What Dying Fandom? I Don’t See A Dying Fandom Look At These

@mynameisdopper: Compared to many on this list, I’ve known you for a relatively short time, but I already feel as close to you as I do most of my long-time friends. I love talking with you almost every day IC and OOC, I love the thought and insight you give your characters, including ones in other fandoms like @conniethejam and @rosefquartz, and I love the skill you put into your replies. And even despite that innate talent, you NEVER stop striving to improve. You also have a sense of humor that matches mine almost exactly, and that’s something I’ve learned not to take for granted over the years. But most of all, you have a heart of gold, all jokes aside, and I know you are going to do great things. I know you already have.

@pine-dexter: I still can’t believe it took me so long to find you, but every moment since has been a treat. I love hearing your take on Ford, I love exploring post-show scenarios and post-show AUs with you, and I love indulging extensively in our trashy ship together, be it via IM RP or simply exchanging horrible fanfics we’ve found. And of course, on the occasion we DO get to thread together, that’s always a pleasure. We need to do it more.

@llamanorthwest: You might be the youngest member in this section (not in terms of your actual biological age, but in regards to how long I’ve known you), but I’ve gotta say: I had high hopes for you because of our mutual friends, and you STILL surpassed them. Your take on Pacifica is really interesting, and your writing for her is a CONSISTENT joy. I’m still over the moon that you were willing to explore the LTOLOXA AU with me, and that you seem to get just what I’m going for with Bill.  Not to mention I love the art you draw for it, it gives me life. I can’t wait to RP more with you in the future. 

@widdleolgideongleeful​ as well as @leavethattomabel​: Your Gideon is top notch in all the ways, and you’ve gone above and beyond the source material in a way all roleplayers should aspire to. You’ve kept him IC while still adding a unique flare of your own, and it never fails to entertain. Your passion is contagious, and constantly fuels my drive to continue improving and exploring my own character in new and exciting ways. The same is true for your Mabel, but I’ve gotta say, like to be REAL honest with you here...your Mabel has taught me something else too. This is gonna sound kinda mean (hey you already knew I was a bitch), but the other big lesson your Mabel has taught me is to never judge a book by its cover. When I first came across your Mabel blog, I was THAT roleplayer: I saw your layout, I saw your huge icons, and I thought “this is someone who only kind of knows what they are doing, but ehh I guess I’ll give it a shot”. In time, of course, I discovered you were an EXCEPTIONAL roleplayer, and most if not all your design choices were very purposeful, especially on your blog layout. And rightfully so: I mean it DOES look like a blog Mabel would make. Finally, portrayals aside, you are often a joy to discuss things OOCly with, be it GF related or something in RL, you always carry that unique insight with you in whatever you do.

@flannelandchill​: Wendy can be a surprisingly hard character to nail down, if only because she’s very much portrayed from Dipper’s perspective in the show, and that’s an obviously skewed view. But when I read your writing for her, I don’t JUST see the super cool redhead (though that certainly is still there), I see the side of Wendy only briefly shown in canon: a girl who is stressed just like the rest of us. And I love, love, LOVE how you work those two together so seamlessly. I look forward to all our interactions, always, and your appreciation for my portrayal never goes unnoticed. Please continue to stroke my ego.

@captivatinginnocence​: From the very beginning, I could hear Mabel’s voice in your writing loud and clear. You have a masterful command of her tone and characterization, and you carry that to places I’ve never seen other Mabel RPers go. Seriously, do you know ANYONE else who explores her later years in life to the extent you do? As if that wasn’t enough, you are an AMAZING artist, and a very generous one too. I treasure each and every “doodle” you send my way, and love the care and effort you put into every aspect of your character. It’s always a pleasure to write with you, even if I might take a while to reply sometimes. Same goes for OOC convos about life too! And I’m super thrilled that you’ve decided to dip your toes into the SU fandom with @fantomshards recently too, bringing all that skill with you.

Dormant In Activity But Not In My Heart

@stanfordsixerpines: As my first Ford on this blog, you will always have a special place in my heart. Back when I still had a lot of shame about this billford ship, you were ready and willing to jump in the deep end with me, and never looked back. I love everything we’ve done together, and look forward to anything we might do again in the future.

@hillbillyisms​ as well as @stan-punches​, @soosquestion​, and a bunch of others honestly and every single one is worth a follow becasue this mun writes em: You are perhaps the oldest friend have on here, considering I met you back when I first started on Tumblr in the Legend of Korra fandom, and we are still in occasional contact. We’ve always been so in sync, to the point that the LoK fandom legit thought we were the same person for a while, and I still feel that connection with you now. Although you might not think yourself a success story, I have and will always see you as a victor over the massive shitstorm life has thrown at her, someone who came out a writer in all the ways, despite all the odds. And you continue fighting every day, all the while never falling short in the quality you produce, even if it has understandable lulls in output. You’re always worth the wait, and I’ll always be here ready to pick up where we left off.

@sweatersandsprinkles​: We’ve RPed quite a bit in my post-show verses, and have always talked very extensively OOC about new and exciting possibilities. I love the relationship our muses have formed with each other, and I love the darker directions you are willing to take those interactions without sacrificing the fluff. You are a constant reminder that one doesn’t HAVE to choose between cute and dark, you can have a weird medium. And isn’t that what RPing Bill is all about?

@illusionare​: Unicorn, most of your muses I know of are just as much a majestic bastard as your name implies (except for Mickey Mouse wtf), but YOU are a SWEETHEART. You are one of the few users on this website I would honestly unironically call senpai. You’ve been an inspiration to me ever since I followed you on @desbearer, and you continue to be as you come out of every hardship in your life a little brighter than you were when you went in. Both in real life struggles and roleplay ventures, you constantly make me think “well if she can do it, why not me?” You are an unapologetic meme, artist, and writer – a true gift to us all. Never forget that. And even though your Bill might be on the inactive list here, the little interaction we DID have helped me get over one of my biggest irrational fears: interacting with other quality Bill Ciphers. And we both know you have an unwavering dedication to your murder bear, so that’s pretty awesome.

The Cross-Fandom Treasures I Never Expected

@sandsofchaos​: Never did I ever think I’d find such a perfect match for Bill, dare I say MORE perfect than my in-fantom OTP.  I mean go figure it’s chaos herself, right? I don’t think I’ve ever had this deep a relationship with another muse outside the fandom I roleplay in, and I love every second of it.  As a mun, you are probably the other one on this list I can unironically call senpai, because I really truly look up to just about everything you do. Your writing is top notch ALL the time, and your dedication to your character despite an obvious lack of fandom is a constant reminder to me that all you need is a vision and a passion. In real life too, you’re an inspiration to me; whatever you might think of yourself, I see you as a successful woman I hope to be as I continue my life, and it’s a blessing to see first hand that I don’t need to give up roleplaying to do that.

@yellingmetatron​: We don’t talk AS much OOC, but you still need to be on this list because your character absolutely floors me, both in concept and execution. Like with Eris, this is a relationship I never would have dreamed of my Bill muse having, but it just fits SO WELL. Your dedication is inspiring, and again, even though we haven’t talked a great deal OOC, you’ve privately helped me work through some pretty difficult questions early on regarding my portrayal of Bill, and I’m forever grateful for that.

@familiarfortunefox: I’ve asked it before and I’ll ask it again: how do you make a quality RP blog for a fandomless wolf with no powers or special abilities, except maybe speech? It’s such a mundane concept, a lost cause, and yet you’ve tackled it anyway with great success. And the fact that you revived it just to RP with my human Bill? I’m still not over it. You’re also the first blog in literally YEARS that I have actively enjoy the autoplay for, so kudos for your taste there. I know I’ve been slacking on our roleplays, but know that you are in my thoughts nonetheless.

@thecaptainofcrunch​: Technically this is the same mun as the afore mentioned Dipper, but since I have a specific unholy cross-fandom ship with this FUCKING CEREAL MASCOT, I felt the need to mention it here. You are a meme Dean, a fucking meme, and I hate you for getting me to ship this. 

Now these were just some super special people that have had a special impact on me and/or this blog in particular.  This ISN’T an all-inclusive list of roleplayers I love and adore. But as you can see, this thing has already gotten PRETTY freaking long, so just know that if you aren’t on here, I still love you.

Although...

There are some RECENT arrivals I want to give a quick shout-out to because I got my eyes on you. I know what quality l👀ks like when I see it. Call me.

@tadsthename, @mystcriiious, @bruiiser​

And that’s about it! Oh, but one more thing: although this isn’t someone I’ve RPed with on this blog very much, she IS a big part of the reason I finally checked out Gravity Falls at all a little over a year ago, so a quick shoutout to @marelapis as well.

H-1

I was in the 12th grade and new to the 18+ club, just sleeping in history class as my teacher spoke about politics and everything wrong Obama was doing for our country in 2010. My energy is limited so I don’t give it to senseless acts and my teacher’s words were beyond senseless, so I decided to recover for something else worth my time. I was sleeping peacefully but something woke me up, im not sure what it was but I know I sat up rubbing my eyes and turned to the hallway…that’s when I saw H. She was receiving a tour of our school that looked like nothing more than a blue and white flea market behind a church but she caught my eye. I was trying not to stare let alone make eye contact but I couldn’t turn away, I was truly sprung after one look at her, but then she looked back and smiled. We made eye contact and I knew I wanted her but I didn’t believe she was going to come to our school. It was like as soon as my heart shot up, I received a reminder of reality and shot back down. I felt sad because I wanted her but didn’t even know her.  It was whatever though, it was high school and I was young, of course I’d meet many beautiful females in college right?

A week later I was in English class reading Macbeth and trying to figure out what new armor I could equip to my character in halo 3 so I could look the absolute coolest amongst my halo clan. During my nerd time, the door opens up and I see this 5’4, light skin, hazel eyes, curly haired girl walk in and sat right next to me. It was H. She had no respect for me whatsoever to just walk up in my life and fuck up my whole world.  I was fine day dreaming about dominating on halo and acting like I was interested in class, but then she showed up and suddenly I cared about every way I looked.

See before I used to wear some $40 all black jordans or even rock flip flops with socks just to piss my classmates off and show them I didn’t and never would give a damn of what they thought. This day though I cared about what she thought. I tried to hide my feet because I looked like a naruto character with my flip flops, and my fro was a mess from me sleeping in biology.  I began to worry that I wouldn’t sound manly enough for her when it was my turn to read, or maybe that my finger nails were too long, or that my hands were too ashy after I washed them in the bathroom, or that my breath stunk, or worse…. I wasn’t “Black enough” to even get the time of the day….For some reason I was adjusting my whole life for her, and I didn’t even know who who she was.

As the days went by I slowly started changing things about me just to get her attention, even though I only had 2 classes with her. I would say “hi” or joke about the homework to get some type of social contact between us and it would work, but I was just so damn shy. I beat myself up every day thinking of what I could’ve said or done to talk to her. After school one day I ran into her in the gym and built up the courage (by insulting myself with all sort of rude and disrespectful names my mother would approve of) and asked her if she would come to the homecoming game that night. I got an “I’ll see”………………..wait  wait wait….I nearly died asking her to come and all I got is an “I’ll see” I don’t even remember what awkward way I said bye after that response I just know that I walked to my car punching myself in the face. During our somewhat “homecoming” I was in the bleachers with my friends when she walked in with her parents. I was half ecstatic and half disappointed because I couldn’t get to sit with her. Two of my friends were with me and one was calling dibs on her…..yo…I could’ve breathed fire from hell on this man the way I felt but I politely(Lies) told him to back down since he went to a different school where they had more chocolate women of choice 😈.

This is where it picks up!

It was one day at lunch, I was wearing shades and my black and white mickey mouse top hat that I got from Disney in the 8th grade. She came inside and sat down next to me…..now slight pause….deep breathe…..look around the room…. And see the world spin like that Mr. Crabs meme that’s all over social media….This was me at that exact moment and I’ll tell you in detail why.

See she was in one grade lower than me which means she ate in a whole separate lunch room…me and my guys ate in a corner in the senior lunch room but it was a table that could fit 10 people. We just sat in the corner because we were the only 4 semi relevant African Americans in our whole private school. Now at this table I sat on the side but on this day I decided to sit on the opposite end ( I don’t remember why but I’m sure it was to mess with my best friend Evan and his ego of sitting at the end). H Came in and sat next to me….on the opposite side of my friends….but by me alone…😀

I’m sweating at this point and can barely see straight and my boys know it that’s why they joked me on the other end the whole time. Right before I built up enough courage to say something to her other than “UHHHHHH” She reaches for my face and takes off my shades then says “I’d prefer to see your eyes, they’re nice and you shouldn’t hide them”…..YO!!!!! 💀 someone bring the coffin and please be gentle with my body, just write “blakblaze14 was the illest player in halo of our time” on top, and for my tombstone write “Died when soul left body”. I was speechless and not even sure how to respond because I didn’t know how to flirt! All I could say was “hey give me back my glasses” instead of something cool and sexy like “Yeah, well I like you shawty” ( in a plies voice). Lets not forget that this all happened in a unch room no bigger than a walmart restroom so EVERYONE in my 12th grade class saw my response. Needless to say that the guys had jokes for me the next few days. From there my life changed for the better, because I had validation that she was interested in me, and I know this because we became friends on Facebook.😬
