Autumn Windenburg, an uncomfortable topic

Luna: Rohan, it’s so nice to see you again! Savannah, Sidney, hi!

Malcolm: Hi!

Rohan: Lu-Lu! And the gang! Malcolm, hi, man. What’s up?

M: Oh you know, the same old same.

Ro: Come on man, you always have the coolest stories. Tell us about your summer trip to Tartosa.

M: Oh, yeah. It was great. Lot’s of… sun.

Savannah: Holding out on us are you? Something crazy went down you don’t want to tell us about? Ohhh, a summer fling, perhaps? Come on, let’s hear it!

Lu: Guys, he was there with his family. I’m sure he was well-behaved. Right, Malcolm?

M: Yeah sure… ehum, Luna? You want a drink or something? I’m heading over to the bar.

Lu: Yeah, I’d love that. Surprise me, why don’t you?

M: Huh? Okay, sure. Be right back.

i want to wish my tiny corner of the rpc aka you beautiful beloveds a happy new year  !  THANK YOU  for sticking with me and my Jim despite my overall sporadic presence especially in the second half of the year.  i appreciate that i am in a crowd of people who understand that real life should be my number one priority.  writing Jim is, in fact, one of my biggest sources of happiness.  THANK YOU  for contributing to my happiness. 🤧💛

i will get a little personal here so if you want to dip out,  feel free. there is a point to this part though.  in the last ten years,  every new years eve was overwhelming for me.  because things were awful,  or i was in a fight with a loved one,  or i was ashamed of the person i was  NOT  becoming, feeling stuck and lamenting about the past.  i spent most of my new years countdowns quietly crying. i am saying this because i want you all to know that i know how bad things can get.  you know what i learned this year,  though  ?  as important as it is to have a support system around us, ultimately,  no one is going to come save you.  ONLY YOU CAN DO THAT.  the first part of 2024 was rock bottom for me ( i'll spare the details lol ),  but i realized that  life is difficult anyway,  so fuck it.  i'll do something about it.  there's barely anything we are in control of in our situations.  i'm experiencing that firsthand ( losing my job in a month, actually, hello... ),  but  WE CAN CONTROL OUR PERSPECTIVE. 

a lot of people say this year sucked. it did,  but for me,  the second half of it was  AMAZING  because i made a choice to actively work on making it better for myself and stopped feeling like a victim. every, single, day, i tried to do something to better whatever about myself was bothering me. i had a pretty damn good half of the year because i singlehandedly worked my ass off to build that reality. confidence or hope doesn't just rain down from the sky,  beloveds.  we need to stack  EVIDENCE  against our bad thoughts telling us bad things.  doing,  little by little,  WILL  change your life. 

so if you had a bad year,  i'd like to leave you with these thoughts.  i hope that all of you find peace,  love and just everything you ever wished for in the new year.  know that you do have the power to go towards a better life. you'd be surprised to see how strong you are  🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Tamasin probably wrote in her diary the first time she met Jack Barak: “dear diary, just met the most pasty-looking motherfucker with the most devastatingly pathetic puppy dog eyes, floofy black hair, and surprisingly large codpiece I’ve ever seen in my life. I have to have him.

p.s. his friend’s kind of a jerk but I like him too💕”

Easy identifier to tell if I tagged along with someone to the fancy makeup store with “try me” samples

okay one smol post while i’m sitting here on my phone bc it’ll come up eventually.

my glinda is demisexual. she dates, but she’s not necessarily super attracted to people in the traditional sense. she’ll aesthetically appreciate the attractiveness of someone, but her dating choices are more ranked on status than physical attraction. it’s one reason why she doesn’t really settle down with anyone after her attempted marriage to fiyero.

Something cute that happened recently that I wanna share!:

My boyfriend and I were out and about, gonna go to this new little cafe that opened up (their lemonade was delicious!)

I was wearing a cute blue dress, had on blue eyeshadow with a little glitter on my cheeks, sparkly nail polish, black and blue knee high socks, and I put on some perfume that's also body glitter! ✨

A little girl saw me, happily ran up to me as fast as she could, then waved to me and said, "hello!" Then my boyfriend and I waved and said "hi there!" back. Then the little girl happily ran back to her mom and said, "I talked to the fairy over there, mommy!"

It's confirmed, I am a blue fairy 🧚‍♂️✨

[darehearts]

good morning  !  how does one actually organize their thoughts and write out a timeline for new aus asking for a friend  💀

[charlotte-liddel]

// @lostusagis asked:

''So basically what you're saying is that......

I need to kill you.''

(im sorry that's his solution for everything)

"I mean you're welcome to try if you want to experience the wonders of gravity magic, or a black hole. I do have some self preservation instinct about me." Charlotte was being rather casual as she spoke, before making a chaotic cluster of glittering butterflies above her hand, "Ooooor... I could also just bedazzle you so hard with a glitter bomb you'll be finding it in places you didn't know you had like fine sand."

She's not beyond bouncing threats right back; even if she's being more playful about it and not taking him too seriously.

galinda’s mailing address would be pertha hills, frottica, gillikin country, but it is frequently colloquially known as the “upper uplands” due to the upland family’s influence on the region.

So a while ago some friends were talking about fans who claim the Same Coin theory is canon. And I made the mistake of saying:

Do you know who also has tons in common with Bill? Mabel. Yet nobody claims Bill reincarnated as Mabel. …wait now I want a "same coin but it's Mabel" AU. Funniest Bill reincarnation option. The all-seeing arsonist is making macaroni glitter art. The omnipotent tyrant is crying because a unicorn called her a bad person.

And then I overthought it for two months.

So—AU where after death, Bill's soul shoots 13 years into the past and reincarnates as Mabel. I'll call it ✨ Sparkly Coin AU ✨

Don't leave yet. Lemme show you why it works. Behold the eerie amount of parallels in their personalities, dialogue, behavior, mannerisms, tastes...

I could have kept going but my attention span ran out. All right, we all on board now? Convinced we could segue from one personality into the other? Great. Now here's why you should be interested: the juicy post-Weirdmageddon angst potential.

As long as a small fringe of the fandom still thinks Weirdmageddon is Mabel's fault, why not amp that up x100 and have some fun with it?

Is everyone sold now? Great. Let's get into the details. I've got 8 more pieces of art under the read more.

So the AU starts the instant Bill dies. Thanks to invoking his deal with the Axolotl—one way to absolve his crime, a different form, a different time—the Axolotl gives him a new shape and shoots him thirteen years into the past. Apparently, the Axolotl thought it would be very funny to stick Bill in the family that defeated him.

Which probably made for a jarring transition.

(It's fine, she's like 10 minutes old, she probably can't even tell who she's looking at. Not being able to tell who she was looking at is what got her into this situation ayyyy)

When Dipper & Mabel come back from Gravity Falls complaining about this triangular jerk Bill, their parents mention that Dipper's name was nearly Bill. See, after they knew they were going to have a boy, one night their mom dreamed about a visitor—some kind of magic pink salamander??—calling her child "BILL." Then at the next sonogram they found out they were having twins, the girl must've been hidden at a weird angle the first time, and they wanted matching names, so they thought, Bill and Bell. But they didn't really like Bell; but eventually they stumbled on Mabel, so to keep the names matching they switched from Bill to Mason. Isn't that the darnedest thing?

(Of course, Mabel and Dipper assume Bill harassed their parents to try to trick them into naming a kid after him. To be a jerk.)

When Bill meets Mabel, he's unaware that she's his future self—Bill's notably bad at doing things like, say, double-checking to see whether he's going to die anytime soon—but like... he can tell something's up.

Naturally, before visiting Gravity Falls, there were echoes of who Mabel used to be—but nothing anyone would be able to identify without context. All her Bill-ish quirks either smoothed out with time (see: how between second grade and fourth grade Mabel went from being the "freak" to the popular girl in class), or else they were accepted by her family as Mabel-ish quirks.

After they meet (and kill) Bill, they have the context to understand some of Mabel's behaviors... and unfortunately, some of Mabel's latent Bill-ness starts surfacing after she's been directly exposed to her prior incarnation.

The part of the Pines family familiar with Bill thinks the worst case scenario is that maybe Bill's survived and is slowly possessing Mabel; but far more likely, they think this is just some weird way of trying to subconsciously process last summer. Mabel doesn't think she's being weird, you guys are being weird, stop giving her weird looks. They get attacked by one triangle and now she can't wear yellow or pick up macrame as a hobby??

(It's not all red flags and uncomfortable triangle imagery, though. When Stan asks her what she'd like as a gift for some important event, she shyly admits that she thinks she's starting to outgrow her plastic gem jewelry and maybe she's old enough to get her first piece of real gold jewelry, if that's not too expensive? And Stan's never been so proud of her. Thirteen years old and already thinking about buying gold!)

But of course, the real fun starts when Mabel finds out.

That's the face of a girl who's just discovered that she tortured her great uncle. Now imagine running into the brother she possessed.

But I've already spent a million words and thirteen images on this post. If enough folks are interested in the AU maybe I'll expand on it later. Let me know what y'all think.
