#Mostly for Fidds

[stupidvillainousposts]

Vampire Fidds, hoping he doesn't sound suspicious: Say, Stanley?

Werewolf Stan, fiddling with the cash box: *Grunts* What's up, Cowboy?

Vampire Fidds: Y'know how dogs can be... well... locked together... after they, um... engage in coitus?

Werewolf Stan, half paying attention: Yea?

Vampire Fidds: Well, I was just'a wonderin'... does that... do you do... that?

Werewolf Stan: *Pauses for a Moment Before Smirking* You tryin' to get freaky on me, Fiddlesticks?

Vampire Fidds, blushing heavily: NO! O' course not! I-I was just, well, I... I was readin' about wolf behavior and anatomy and got... curious. Ya know, with me bein' a scientist I just thought it'd be worthwhile t' make an inquiry on tha subject is all.

Werewolf Stan: Y'know, I wouldn't be opposed to helping you find out.

Vampire Fidds: Y-you wouldn't?

Werewolf Stan: Nope. In all honesty, I don't even know. All I really know is that I'm huge now.

Vampire Fidds: *Quietly* Lord, forgive me for my sinful thoughts.

Werewolf Stan: Wazzat?

Vampire Fidds: NOTHIN'! Just- Follow me!

Werewolf Stan: Whatever you say... *Lowers His Voice* Cowboy~

Vampire Fidds: You are gonna be the metaphorical death o' me, Stanley Pines.

Holiday Classics

Been thinking about Ford watching the 70s Animated Lord of the Rings Movies... (companion comic to this post!)

[smiley-mcdoggington]

Mystery trio except during the portal incident Stan is the one that gets a peek through the portal and completely shrinks into a ball in fear. Ford wants to know what Stan saw, but also maybe not because Ford hasn't seen Stan scared quiet since they were little and Stan didn't know yet to defend himself when Pa hit him.

Worse, Stan was looking up at him like he was the one with the belt in his hand. Stan all but yanked Fiddleford into the corner he was huddled in, but Ford couldn't take a step without Stan trembling harder and Fiddleford snapping at him.

So, unwelcome, Ford left, going straight to the summoning circle to demand Bill tell him who did this to his brother. He didn't expect Bill to laugh at that, going on about how feeble human minds were - all he had to do was make Stanley spend a few centuries trapped in an empty box with no one but a twisted version of Stanford and Stanley was so quiet and docile - perfectly behaved for Bill's plans. Ford said that was impossible, Bill said he could make neurons do a lot of things, in his domain where time didn't exist and meaning had no meaning.

When he went back to check on Stanley, he was sitting calmly on the livingroom armchair, Fiddleford with his memory gun at his side stood in front of him. "That feel better, darlin'?" He asked.

Stan nodded. Then he turned and saw Ford, and screamed.

Fiddleford raised the whirring gun again, and in a flash of light, Stan was quiet again. He looked at Ford with glazed-over eyes and didn't react while Fiddleford pet his hair and told him it would be alright

pettson tends to be one of my main inspirations when trying to capture older fidds

HEYA THERE SPECS! I GOT QUITE AN OFFER FOR YA! WHY DON’T YOU TAKE OFF THOSE SOUND-PROOF HEADPHONES AND LET ME SING YOU A NICE SONG! I CAN MAKE ALL YOUR ANXIETY DISAPPEAR IN JUST ONE VERSE! JUST LOOK AT FORDSY, HE’S MUCH HAPPIER!

@stanfordssiren

And- and you let him go! Right this instant!

Fellas, is it gay to give two extremely thoughtful handmade gifts (one of which would've taken hours upon hours of crafting, planning, & prototyping) to your Jewish "research partner" (who you left your wife and kid to help with a nebulously-long "project") for Christmas and then forget to get your Christian wife literally anything?

Pollution Powers AU Fiddleford manifests his power while he's out working in the fields on the farm. He walks into the house and is immediately told to go shower, because he reeks and is filthy. Which is expected after working the fields.

But when he's done showering, Ma McGucket scolds him for not washing properly. He still smells and has dirt on him! Fiddleford is confused, given he scrubbed like usual. But he goes to shower again.

When he emerges, his skin is rubbed raw from how hard he was scrubbing, but he still smells, and as Ma McGucket watches, patches of dirt form on his freshly washed face.

And she realizes that something strange and possibly serious is going on.

*Violently throws something*

YESSSS, FUCKING YESSSSSSSS-!!!!

Abigale Blackwing 🤝 Fiddleford McGucket:

Adopting Pacifica and teaching her how to be a mad inventor/mechanic

Okay but like fr do you think Abigale and Fiddleford would get along because I think they probably would

Oh they’d be thick as thieves!

Shitty little unrelated AU doodles <3

Rambles under cut!

MORE FIDDS LORE BECAUSE I FUCKING LOVE THIS MAN.

He's known in town as "That Nice Old Man" that lives with his son in the cabin near the lake.

What a regular guy, that man. Yup. Old Man Mcgucket. Totally normal, regular old man, haha. Yeah. Him? A cult leader? Ridiculous!

In my perfect world where this AU is an actual fully animated show, the episode when the mystery twins first officially meet Fidds would be called "Out of Sight, Out of Mind" because fuck yeah baby. It sounds cool as FUCK.

When the twins meet Fidds, they somehow found someone with EVEN STRONGER cultist vibes than their grunkle.

"Come closer, kids! I don't bite."

"Tell me, children: How are you feeling? Anything... bad, happen lately? Anything you would like to forget? No? Well, don't hesitate to tell me if there's anything you would like out of your head, anything at all. I would hate for youngens like you to be forced to deal with such... unsavorable memories. Better to have them gone and out of your head. You know what they say: Out of sight, out of mind." *boop*

I'm making him a manipulative conniving little rat with good intentions but utterly ABYSMAL execution (babygirl, you can't just go around deleting people's memories)

Since Fidds is actually the leader of the Society of The Blind Eye, the cult is a lot more organized and covert, and actually do their job pretty well.

Tate knows. He knows his father is hiding something from him, something dangerous, but he can't remember what. He tries to get the twins to stay as far away from his father as possible because, while he's certain his father won't actually hurt them, there is no telling what the kids might be getting involved with.

During the cult fight "episode", Mcgucket would be chasing the kids, Ford, and Bill around, but mostly just for the latter two rather than the children. He would never actually hurt the twins.

"Please, I'm trying to help you, kids! Don't you understand? KNOWING is what cost me my eyes; KNOWING might be what costs you yours, or worse, your life! You can't remember any of this. And I cannot in good conscience let that- that demon stay inside your Great Uncle's head to rot him from inside out like- like some kind of PARASITE."

And then bada bing, baba boom, the twins defeat Fiddleford and his weird cult and they survive with their memory instact and their Grunkles not dead, yipeee!!

Fidds disbands the cult and chucks himself into jail willingly, and casually just becomes the boss of all the other inmates there with his natural old man charms. He gets the Gideon treatment for his ending <3

It's okay, tho because Mabel and the others visit him sometimes just to chat and keep him company.

[stupidvillainousposts]

Ahh, more Werewolf Gene AU stuff

Stan would be terrible at teaching the pups how to be werewolves, I just know it

Stan: And then, once you've dropped the box in the hole, you turn around and bury it! Like you're playing a game of... uh... I dunno, would "Hide the Money" be considered a game?

Dipper: Grunkle Stan? Do we have to bury this money?

Stan: Kiddo, sometimes you have to bury an insane amount of money in the middle of the woods to make it in this crazy world.

Mabel, wagging her tail: Yeah, Dipper! We gotta beat the bank to the punch!

Dipper: The punch of what, though?

Stan: *Puts His Hands on the Kids' Shoulders* All the steaks and bones in the world.

Dipper and Mabel: Woooooow.

---------------------------------

Dipper: Grunkle Stan? Grunkle Fidds?

Stan: Whaddup?

Fidds: Is somethin' wrong, honey?

Dipper: I mean... I wouldn't really say wrong, so much as... horribly terribly awful?

Stan, going tense: Dipper, what does that mean?

Dipper: Well... I may or may not have dared Mabel to blend a bunch of random food and toothpaste together and eat it all.

Fidds, completely exasperated: And why, pray tell, would ya do somethin' like that?

Dipper: She bit my ear too hard while we were playing...

Stan, relaxing slightly: Okay, so where exactly does the "horribly terribly awful" part come in?

Dipper: I think Mabel has food poisoning... werewolves don't have advanced immune systems, do we?

Stan: Not when we're eating things that would make Gordon Ramsay die on sight, we don't.

--------------------------

Mabel: Grunkle Stan? Why does Grunkle Fidds get so mad when me and Dipper accidentally pop his blood bags?

Stan: Well, those bags are the only thing keeping your Grunkle Fidds from going crazy and killing people, Pumpkin. He's gotta drink blood to survive, just like we've gotta eat meat.

Mabel: Okay, okay. Where does he get the blood from?

Stan: I think it's time we stopped talking for now.

---------------------------

Fidds, tucking Dipper into bed: G'night, Mason. Y'all have a good sleep.

Dipper: I'll sleep well when I figure out how to sleep without crushing my tail every time I sleep the wrong way.

Fidds: Aw, I'm sorry, hon. Would ya like me t' try and make ya somethin' t' sleep better?

Dipper: Nah, I'll just train my body to stay still like a log when I sleep. Then I'll be pain free!

Fidds: *Chuckles* Alright, Mason. Do what ya gotta do.

Stan, dragging Mabel into the room by her left leg: Comin' through with a stray! *Drops Mabel Onto Her Bed*

Mabel: *Squeals with Glee*

Stan, smirking: Alright, you. Sleep. Now.

Mabel: But Grunkle Stan! I'm not tired! *Passes Out Literally One Second Later*

Stan, to Dipper: Night, kid.

Dipper, trying not to laugh: Goodnight Grunkle Stan.

my mystery trio AU headcanon (Fiddlestan):

- Fiddleford finds out one day that Stanford has a twin brother, and was like "how have I known you since uni and you never once mentioned this" (Ford probably got drunk and blurted it out).

- Fidds also finds out about the whole "Stanley is estranged after being kicked out by our father" bit.

- Fidds really values family and he's kinda torn up with guilt that he left his wife and newborn to be here in the first place. He persuades Ford to invite Stan to Gravity Falls so they can make up (family therapy by proxy).

- Ford is aroace and Fidds is VERY repressed homosexual. The teeny tiny crush Fidds had on him died out in college because Ford doesn't want him like that.

- But when Fidds sees Stan.... wow. It's everything about Ford he was attracted to but BETTER. He's completely enamored. He's also taking the "am i gay" quiz STAT.

- Stan sees Fidds and practically has a cartoon AWOOGA moment. He's smitten at first sight, will do absolutely anything for this damn engineer.

- Stan is very open about his sexuality because in his mind, he has a lot more to worry about than who he fucks.

- Stanley wants to make amends with Ford because he never truly hated him, not really, and he knows it was mostly their father's fault anyway for favoring Ford.

- Stanley originally thinks Fidds and Ford are together just by the fact that they're grown men who moved in together. He thinks the whole "lab partner" title is an elaborate cover up for what's really going on. (It was the 80s.)

- And he's honestly a bit jealous, something something about Ford always being preferred over him. (He's very mentally ill okay...)

- "Oh no darling, Ford and I aren't like that"/"🙂"/"Between you and me, I reckon he doesn't have those types of feelings for anyone..."/"😄"/"Besides, I got my wife and kid at home"/"🤯🤯🤯😨😨☹️☹️"

(sorry guys i can't type in a southern accent)

- Fidds calls people pet names casually, makes Stan melt inside and also throw up.

- Fidds gets a letter from his wife serving divorce papers

- Stanley outside: ☹️☹️☹️ Stanley inside: 🤩🎉😍

- When they finally open up about their big fat crushes on each other Stanley is just so overwhelmed because for once in his life. HE is the first choice and not his brother.

- And during all of this Ford is off having a queer platonic situationship with a triangle

whiteboard doodles mostly featuring stan but ford and fidds get their faces in too

[alexthebordercollie]

oooo, if you're taking doodle requests for the dad ford au, i'd love to see something with Ford + Tate and or Stan + Tate.

Ford, cause it'd be interesting to see how he handles being a stepdad on top of Newt and Nick. Stan cause while he'd obviously be fiercely protective of the twins, i feel like he'd understand Tate's motivation the most between him, Ford, and Fiddleford

Thank you so much for my first proper ask/prompt. So you asked for Tate with Ford or Stan and I decided to give you both. Ford is a genius but he's not a pediatrician and Fiddleford still insisted on finding a real proper doctor to help with the twin's general medical care. But the person they found willing to help them with their alien babies without freaking out is out of town so these trips are a bit time-consuming and Fidds is the best at keeping the beans calm for their shots. Mostly I just needed to come up with an excuse for Tate to be stuck with the Stan twins for the day.

I imagine this to take place while Fidds and Emma are still in the process of getting divorced. Custody arrangments are still being worked out. This is Tates first time coming to stay in Gravity Falls with his dad's new family and he has a lot of complicated feelings.

Fidds generally is very clingy with Tate when he comes to stay with them. Showering his eldest with affection out of a mix of missing him and feeling guilty. As a result Ford and Stan rarely are put in the position of having to look after Tate and Fidds initially doesn't make much of an effort to actively include Ford in his father-son time with Tate. Again Fidds feels guilty and like asking Tate to give Ford a chance is an unfair imposition.

Ford makes genuine attempts however to get to know Tate when the opportunity arises. At first, Tate wants nothing to do with him. He's overheard his mom occasionally talking about the divorce when he's supposed to be in bed and the bits and pieces he has picked up basis him pretty strongly against Ford.

Emma isn't trying to turn Tate against his dad or even really against Ford. Don't get me wrong she really doesn't like Ford for obvious reasons but she doesn't want to expose her son to the adults interpersonal drama. She didn't mean for him to hear her talking about Fiddleford leaving them for Stanford.

I think you're suggestion that Stan would understand Tate in this situation better than the other two is pretty reasonable. Tate feels abandoned, and maybe even replaced by new babies. Stan knows better than anyone how it feels to be abandoned and he knows enough to reassure Tate rather confidently that that isn't what's happening here. Tate also finds it a bit easier to open up to Stan because he's mostly a bystander in all of this.

[foeyyz]

Let them be happy when they're OLD TOO ‼️ (Also I hc fidds mostly cleans himself to after he gets his mind back but still refuses to ever wear shoes to everyone's dismay)

[wamo]

Idk if this has been done b4 but some stuff I noticed in the fiddauthor Sorry pic (aka overnalayzing it)

fidds took this photo is taken with his camera propped on a tripod stand, hence his writing on the back

ngl I think that's grass since bmu is hella poor + a goat being there already, meaning their dorm is located on the ground floor (or it's just a shag carpet. shrug)

judging by the ragged curtains, there used to be a window but was replaced with a whiteboard (from staff or prev freshmen?) maybe to stop the grass from growing with lack of sunlight? another option is that it is a window, but it doesn’t reflect anything outside. might be a white wall blocking it

fidds only drank a cup of coffee whilst ford drank at least 5 cups of coffee & 1 pitt cola (fidds putting the word coffee in quotation marks ("coffee") means he has never tried it/drunk it before, and is first introduced to the drink by ford. he's also possibly restricted from foreign drinks/was warned about coffee by his grandma)

upon ford arriving at their dorm they bonded immediately for 9 hours, them being outcasted by others, sharing similarities

other than proving their theory, they stacked the empty red paper cups to throw a ping pong ball (?) at, like bowling

on ford's bed, his blanket is askew & he has a horrendous pillow (maybe it's fidds?) also love how ford had the time to nail his guy crush carl sagan poster on his side of the room

there's no reason for the blankets to be askew like that (if they've been solely theory solving the entire time) + ford in his socks & green boxers, while fidds still kept his JEANS ON & cowboy boots ... they're not beating the queer allegaytions

they're both possibly each other's first friend (and best friend)

I don't think ford would be comfortable with taking off his shoes & pants like that with someone in the room unless they're someone he trusts (like fidds lmao)

this is ford's usual attire minus his signature trenchcoat, navy blue slacks, and his black dress shoes, also his sleeves are rolled up. girl atp just strip it all down

notice how only ford has sticky notes on him, this could mean: the original theory came from fidds so he wrote down the equation & put them on ford OR they both wrote down the equation & ford insists he put them on him to help figure it out OR he put the sticky notes on ford first then wrote the equations down (2 of which are on his tits. awesome.)

non-queer (aka boring) interpretation of ford's state: he accidentally spilled coffee & it left a stain on his pants & shoes, hence he took them off. or he just needed to piss! too much coffee. do whatever you want pines

feel free to make your own interpretation of this! these are mostly my headcanons anyway
