Nick Scheuer Headcanons (GF OC) 1/?

Nick is 18 years old so 2 years older than Wendy but 4 years younger than Soos

(In my memory Soos is 22 and Wendy is 16 but if I'm wrong please tell me)

Nick is male and homosexual / polyamory . He doesn't lie that he is gay but somehow no one believes that he is gay because, according to others, he looks very "straight".

But Nick doesn't shout out that he's gay (like he doesn't make it his personality that he's gay) and when you ask him, he just tell honestly that he is.

Dipper thought for a long time that he had his eyes on Wendy but after talking to him he said he was gay and Wendy was just his friend in a platonic way.

Even if he is rather introverted, he can speak well with girls and boys etc.

Kind of has the “The (big) Brother” vibe, he doesn’t know why, he’s actually the youngest kid of four kids but he just gives off the vibe.

Especially to Dipper and Mabel (to Dipper only after he clarified that he isn't in love with Wendy) he's kind of a big brother.

Somehow also with Stanley because Nick has polydactyly like Ford and that's why Stanley somehow has a brotherly relationship with Nick. (Stanley feels bad that he put his trauma and feelings he had towards Ford onto Nick and is now trying to "save" Nick because he couldn't save Ford)

Nick doesn't know before that Stanley feels somehow guilty and feels bad when he somehow triggers a trigger from Stanley because Stanley doesn't explain to him why he reacts the way he reacts.

But after Stanford came back, Stanley explained this to Nick and Nick understood it and they both worked on their relationship so that Stanley doesn't just hang out with Nick because of his trauma but in a healthly way and Nick don't feel bad of his action to Stanley (I hope I explained what I mean by that well)

He had very severe acne between the ages of 13 and 16 but it got better until he was 18 but he still had mild acne.

He actually had natural curls because of his heredity but because he was in his rebel pre-teens he straightened his hair to death and now he has straight hair. He doesn't regret it.

His parents said that when he gets older he will regret it and miss his curls but he won't. He likes to have straight hair. It suits his style more.

And having natural red hair as a boy with curls was just too complicated for him with the polydactyly too.

Is the type of brother vibe who accepts friendship bracletes from his "younger siblings" and really holds it up like it's his greatest treasure. He rarely wears them but you know he really likes them.

When copying a piece of paper, manual or technical, he needs a ruler to stay on the line what he writes. (hopefully you know what I mean by that)

He doesn't like Gideon Gleeful. Since the first meeting, the things he did against Mabel and Stanley, he simply hated him and was amused at Weirdmageddon where Gideon would be locked in the cage by Bill Chiper.

No pity or anything. He was just happy to see Gideon suffering. But he never told anyone in the group.

His family is part of Ciphertology and when he found out he cut himself off from his family because he will not be associated with them or will not be part of the cult. He hates Silas Birchtree for make Ciphertology.

His aunt (on his mother's side) is obsessed with the cult and is the cult leader and refers to herself as the "Bill Chiper wife". She somehow sees Nick as a problem because he doesn't want to join the Cult (and that later in the story he becomes one of Bill Chiper's Boyfriends)

Is/Will be in a polyamory relationship with Bill Chiper and Stanford Pines

First lives with "Lazy" Susan Wentworth but then moved to the Mystery Shack where he lives in the room:

(This was part of the Gravity Falls concept art and is not mine↓)

After Ford is rescued, Nick offers him to sleep in his room, but even though everyone thinks Ford didn't accept the offer, Ford often sneaks into Nick's room at night and sleeps there.

Nick helps Ford with his nightmares and they often talk for hours about their similarities such as polydactyly and co.

Ford always thinks he's annoying when he talks for hours, but Nick doesn't mind because he likes hearing Ford's voice.

And Ford kind of likes Nick's physical touch and listening to him for so long.

But for a very long time then, Ford and Nick realized that they liked sleeping together and even started sharing a bed but didn't tell anyone in the family because they think they will be despised because of the age gap in their relationship.

Just like the relationship between Bill and Nick. Bill meets Nick in "Dreamscaperers" and their secret love-hate relationship begins there.

Even though Nick hates the Ciphertology Cult, he somehow loves Bill and Bill loves somehow Nick because he doesn't want to worship him as a Ciphertology follower.

Like "Alex Hirsch" / Dipper, Nick is used to chew on pencils - like that Picture

Is a snack machine child. Everywhere he sees a snack machine or drink machine he uses it and uses it almost every day if he can.

Can only cook very little, like microwollen spaghetti or sandwiches, but can bake more, like muffins and cakes.

More headcanons coming soon .....

IS THIS ANYTHING?

//Random thing I found just peeking around. But... You know how Silas Birchtree says he married Miss Iowa 1951? I was doing some looking around and Miss Iowa 1951 is someone named Nancy Jane Norman. Don't know much about her other than there's a part on her wikipedia page that says her "vocal" was Romance from the Desert Song. For kicks, I decided to listen to it. And, uh, lemme just say there's a few INTERESTING lyrics. You can look up the song and lyrics yourself, but here's the lyrics that stood out to me. Love is locked up in cages, (LOVE CAGE?!) And let my fancies weave pretty stories. And tho' I know they are not so, (EVEN HIS LIES ARE LIES) My princes become what I mold them, (Bill's manipulative behavior, puppeting) Ah, this is a humdrum world, But when I dream I set it dancing. When life is gray, I have a way to keep it gay, Passing the time of day with love. Interesting use of dream and gray there. Also keeping it gay. ROFLMAO Just some thoughts. Intentional or am I reading too much into it?

FFXIVWrite Prompt 8: Shed

Aila and Azem have a conversation after EW.

Aila was sitting in a field. The sun was setting in front of her, painting everything a gentle gold. A woman in black robes sat next to her. She couldn’t remember why she was here, but she knew it was important. Aila looked at the woman and furrowed her brow. Nostalgia tugged at her heart. Why?

“Are you well?” The woman asked.

“I’m.. I’m not sure.” Aila answered.

“Shed your burdens child, you will have what counsel I can offer.” The woman smiled at her. She felt calmer here. 

Aila tried to remember… First came a feeling of pride, then a bitter cold. She felt passion wash over her, and felt deep regret. She remembered… stars. Many stars. They saddened her, though she could not say why. 

She had been searching for something. That was it, searching. A desire for answers bubbled up within her, not just hers but the others too. The other… parts of her. Aila looked out over the fields. There was peace here. “I was searching for an answer.”

“Hm. And did you find it?”

“I-I think so. I met them, the others.” Aila’s memory faltered, and she tried to hold onto the pieces. Broken glass. Skeins of fate. A man facing a wolf in the shadows of a keep. A tree whose bark was ash. A great machine. A love falling through the sky. These were not hers to keep and yet she felt them. The emotion tore at her. “I remember others' lives, others' pasts. They aren't mine.” She sighed. There was something missing. Aila could hardly remember herself in the cacophony. So many voices. Memories.

The woman looked out over the field in thought. “You worry at why you carry them? These lives.”

“Yes.”

“You are you child.” The woman said softly. These words were not idle comfort, she knew them.

“I can see your soul clear, it burns with many more flames than it should. They tear at each other with fear and regret. You carry them yes, but your story is your own. Hear theirs. You will find peace then.”

“Are you… Are you one of them?”

“Ha! In a sense child. But my story is long finished, and there are few lessons you may learn from it”

That didn’t seem right. The woman carried the wisdom of a long life. Aila looked at her closely, studied her face. She felt that nostalgia again. 

The woman looked back at her, a brow raised. “Curious are you? Very well, your name is Aila Birchtree. You are a warrior, a wanderer, a friend. What is mine?”

Aila did not know why, but she did know the woman's name. She knew the woman’s story. A traveler of far flung fame, the burdens of sacrifice, the bitterest of regrets. 

“You’re Demeter.”

“The very same.” replied the woman. She smiled at Aila, and the many flames inside her quieted.

Healing part 2. There are things that I do that have come to light in the past year that aren’t totally healthy. Distancing myself from grief, pain, inconveniences, uncomfortable situations…because I’m afraid of anxiety/panic attacks, I’m afraid of disappointment, I’m afraid of failure. Like I said last time my art took a massive hit due to my depression and anxiety. Every single time I picked up a pencil or pen I would hear a voice in my head saying I failed. “Why aren’t you using your degree?” “Have you tried selling your art?” The list goes on. I’m not using my degree, that is true and I’m trying to figure out where to go from here. But my art was always meant to be a form of telling a story, I wanted to share my characters with the world, I wanted to tell their stories. I loved coming up with different characters, figuring out their histories, what they wear, how they act. But I lost that joy when everything suddenly had to be a way of making money. If I didn’t record it or share it to make money, it was worthless. I tried to just make stuff for content, but I couldn’t, it stressed me out. I told myself to set up a graphic design business and do that, but I would panic and shut down and I got nowhere with it. So in my healing I’m getting back to the basics of what I wanted to do. I wanted to share my illustrations and my stories. Even just little glimpses of what worlds my characters lived in. Do I still wish to one day live off of doing only art? Yeah, sure, who wouldn’t want that? But I have realized that in order for me to produce art for myself right now my actual job can’t be creative and that’s okay. I’m not stuck, I’m in a journey, and where that journey takes me is gonna be for the better. I’ve learned that it’s better to take a break and work on starting over than slowly feel like you’re losing your mind in an endless cycle. My brain has had scary thoughts lately, but now, now I feel freer. Not quite completely free, because there is still one thing I need to do, but I’m feeling more confident about it. 2022 ©️ Stephanie. B.

The Silas Birchtree + Cyphertology lore was one of my favorite secrets from the website
