My brain is unable to produce anything but angst.
Like I had this cute fluff idea of Carlos being a Ford fanboy and moving to Nightvale inspired by his favorite scientist going to study Gravity Falls in the 70s/80s. All mostly based on the fact Carlos moved to Nightvale the same year Mabel and Dipper went spend the summer at Gravity Falls.
And it was cute. It was mostly Carlos sending fan letters/reports and Ford reading them and deciding - thanks to Mabel - to answer and making a friend he didn't had a complicated past with (and had a similar love for science).
But them my brain went "Ford would fully assume Cecil was like Bill, right?" I mean from Ford's view there's a paranormal guy who imidiatly is into the scientist? Clearly manipulation.
And at first it was still fine. Maybe Ford helped Carlos own inicial distrust of Cecil. But my brain kept going. To the point it decided that maybe what makes Stan and Ford visit Nighvale after the Weirdmagedon is the news that Carlos is not being cautelos and instead is dating Cecil.
So at this point it was still just a funny au with Ford thinking Cecil is some type of evil charming eldrish god that'll end the world while Cecil is just bonding with Stan and super trying to impress his bf friends.
But finally my brain went: "okay but what about after Ford realizes that Cecil is just an overly dramatic paranormal guy and truly just loves Carlos?". And I realized that while of course Ford would be happy for his friend and relived about the world he would feel even more as if Bill was his fault. Here is Carlos just getting a sweet guy and maybe he was the only one that couldn't see the difference.
And now I need someone to write it and give Ford a hug.
#it does not help that I fully belive Cecil - and some nightvale citzens - can read Bills language#and sees Ford tattoo and is Cecil so he tries to gossip about it thinking is just a healthy kinky thing#only to that be the way Ford discovers his tatoo says “if lost return to Bill” and Cecil is like “holy shit I fucked this situation badly”#while Ford needs a hug even more#also Cecil does a broadcast being very petty about Bill and now nightvale all is very angry/petty about Bill#i love my dorito but i specially love when he cringe fails#wtnv#welcome to night vale#gravity falls#standford pines#ford pines#billford#look i have three modes about billford and it is “yummy toxic old man yaoi”. “let ford heal”. and lol this is so funny#i do love aus with them being healthy and the jokes#but also i like it as toxic and i like it as ford heals#also love rehabilitated bill but just cause he is a better person and sry does not mean ford has to forgive him#cecil palmer#carlos robles#carlos the scientist#cecilos

<< Like What You See? >>
Started this damn comic nearly two months ago and while I'm not too happy with it I wanted to get it done. Hopefully y'all like it
#80s ford pines#ford pines#stanford pines#bill cipher#human bill cipher#billford#gravity falls#i realized my bill looked a lot like fiddleford#so i thought it would be funny if bill legit used fidds as a base since he knew Ford was attracted to him#but of course with his own twist#also the blue eye is hollow#just an empty eye socket#artists on tumblr#digital artist#sparkles art

(alan wake-gravity falls crossover) man i love that character. you know, the deeply paranoid author who made a pact with a dark entity that ultimately ended with him stranded in another dimension separated from his loved ones for years at a time? takes place in the pacific northwest? has twin imagery associated with him and a reoccurring specific piece of symbology related to the unfortunate situation they're in? doesn't ever explain the reasoning behind his actions and instead just kinda goes "bro trust me"? yeah he also wears an outer layer of clothing with elbow pads on it, that one.
#my art#stanford pines#alan wake (the man)#ford pines#gravity falls#alan wake#remedyverse#SAtT au#i am. normal about the crossovers i make up.#what do you mean the esoteric weird horror game about stories and the disney cartoon about family dont have a shared audience. sounds fake.#anyways the comic on the right is in honor of a joke i had to scrap in my fic wip due to a perspective switch.#rip that joke i thought you were pretty funny. i like the idea of alan critiquing his own manuscript pages upon the events happening.#oh i should probably do a warning since theres that crunchy image of the aw2 alan death screen huh. uh#blood#aw2 alan death screen my beloved. literally made me go ''oh god'' out loud in shock and horror when i first saw it#anyways did you know theres an au to this objectively already an au crossover. i call it ''bill cipher gets sent to the shadow realm''#bill doesn't show up a lot in this au he gets one scene where he taunts ford abt alan being a danger#with the implication that the dark place/presence genuinely freaks him out. but in this self indulgence of a self indulgence#alan essentially manages to trick bill into swapping places with him and bill ends up trapped in the writers room/the dark place.#lmao get yötön yö'd idiot. YOU are aleksi kesä now.#also i like the idea of zane and bill meeting as well as door and bill meeting. i think they might scare bill a little bit.#just like how zane scares me <3 what a cool character what the fuck is his deal#also you may be wondering why alans in his aw2 look and not aw or awan look despite the fact that lines up closer#to when gravity falls happens-ish. well the answer to that is 1: the crossover uses a lot of the elements from aw2#and 2: i like alans long hair and suit and beard. i like the pathetic sopping look when his hair is in his face

There are two wolves inside me. One wolf wants to just let people have their fun, believing what they want. The other is feral and wants to tear apart the internet to source and direct link to every interview where Alex Hirsch says that Dipper is him as a child (with traits exaggerated), Mabel is his twin sister Ariel as a child (with traits exaggerated), Stan is their grandpa Stan (with traits exaggerated), and the show's premise is both a love letter to the childhood he spent with his sister and also, more specifically, the summers they would spend at their great-aunt's cabin, where they would be bored but required to keep daily journals and his would be stories he made up about encountering creatures and oddities in the woods around them. And this is all because the feral wolf is going to go from feral to savage if it sees one more post suggesting the actual core pillar of the show is Bill/Ford, rather than the found family (Alex Hirsch's own words!) the show is actually about, and the three based-on-real-people-including-Alex-himself characters in the middle of it.
#like i literally saw someone say Dipper and Mabel were just there to be viewpoint vessels and i was like#ARE YOU KIDDING ME#like did you know Dipper is obsessed with conspiracies bc Alex himself was to the point of debilitating anxiety#at the same time Ariel was having her boy band phase? oh look coinky-dink Mabel likes a boy band!#and gets a pet pig! guess what else? Ariel was so obsessed with pigs as a kid she had a WHOLE WALL OF PIG MERCH#A&A's grandpa Stan was an avid cigar smoker but that couldn't be shown on Disney so instead he gets a raspy voice#another fun fact from the DVD commentaries: Alex & Ariel did international level improv on high school#but the championship team only extended the offer to him. Ariel overheard and burst into tears#Alex IMMEDIATELY rejected the offer tho bc he wouldn't do it w/o his sister#sure sounds like Dip & Mabes to me! bc they are! (also inspired the conflict over Ford's apprenticeship!)#anyway i just. bill/ford is so funny but to say the pillar of the show is abt them? THEM???#FORD WASN'T EVEN IN THE PLANS ORIGINALLY . . . AND WHEN HE WAS HE WAS A HIPPIE . . .#AND THE CIPHER WHEEL ORIGINALLY MEANT NOTHING . . .#AND WHEN ALEX WAS HIRED BY DISNEY HE REMEMBERS THEM SAYING#''we'll let you make your show about you & your sister & your grandpa if . . .''#IT'S ABT HIM HIS SISTER AND HIS GRANDPA!!!!#(i guess he's just closer to his grandpa than his grauntie lol sorry grauntie . . . lois i think her name was. is?)#anyway i'm done now#gravity falls

FINALLY I DRAW SOMETHING!!!!!!!
some Joseph, both young (around 1980 i'd say, when he was traveling w Stan a few years before the portal incident) and old (~2017, now an art teacher at Westchester High). i like to think the first one is a picture Stan took of him while they were traveling and the second one is his staff photo at WH. the more things change the more they stay the same. i might give em backgrounds and foregrounds to look like that
he's had that jacket since the 70s. real leather will last you.
no glasses alts + the first sketch below
#[holding him in my hands like a tiny baby bird]#idk if hes hiding something on his neck. he might be. those neck covers just happened. probably less embarrassing than Ford's tattoos thoug#also im not super interested in “what if Stan had a romance partner who helped him run the shack” type Stan/oc buuuuuuuut#unfortunately i am not immune to old man yaoi and have been thinking “ok BUT what if Jojo helped Stan run the shack” during this rewatch#i think theyre not super open about their relationship so Dipper & Mabel have no idea until the manotaur ep when Mabel realizes “woah......#“Grunkle Stan do you have a crush on Grunkle Jojo???”#[Joseph so called Grunkle Jojo bc “we've known each other long enough hes basically family”]#anyway Mabel tries to “fix Stan up” to help him ask him out & Jojo is fully aware its happening and says nothing bc Funny#they do tell her and Dipper at the end of the day bc since she went through all that trouble trying to set em up they should know#plus kids these days tend to be a lot nicer about gay people sometimes#also good: Jojo giving Stan A Look every time he's shitty or sexist but otherwise not caring about any other morally dubious/bad thing#like Jojo can excuse regular tax fraud/stealing/scamming people but he draws the line at almost getting Waddles eaten by a dinosaur#hes the worlds most “not my circus not my monkeys” moral compass#hes said that before. and Dipper points out that it IS his circus bc he helps run the shack#to which he responds “hah. yeah :)” bc he helps do the fraud and scams <3#fuck i have to draw that as a comic or fake screenshots or something#anyway im not planning on focusing on a Mr's Mysteries AU but i may talk about it occasionally#ANYWAY ANYWAY i wanna talk about him i love talking about him send some asks let me talk about him <3#oc: Joseph van Dyke

truthfully while i enjoy billford and fiddauthor i think they’re much more fun as like. lightning in a bottle moments. weird built up tension that neither side acknowledges. but It’s There.
and 30 years later ford is shooting up in bed wide eyed and sweating going. oh my god i was in love w them. while both bill and fiddleford moved on LONG before ford even realized what was happening.
#emyrs.txt#gravity falls#like. in my mind them (billford or fiddauthor) actually happening at any point takes the fun outta it#there’s a post i saw a few days ago that was like. ‘whatever bill and ford did could not be recognizable as sex to us but it was essentially#sex’ and that’s sort of the vibe i feel w both ships.#like. they weren’t together and neither side acknowledged feelings. but…#it was the kind of relationship you look back on and go. oh my god that was us having gay sex.#you understand.#also this is just my opinion idc if u think this. etc etc. but i don’t find billford/fiddauthor end game to be very interesting at all#like. i just think they’re too volatile. billford wouldn’t be fair to ford/the pines family & fiddauthor wouldn’t be fair to fiddleford.#u know.#like obviously as one shots or jokes i think it’s funny & sometimes u want something silly and light hearted but narratively? dont like ‘em.#the only person ford slightly resolves his issues w is stan. so i think them hanging out having fun and going on adventures is much more#satisfying than ford repairing and forming a romantic relationship w bill or fidds#anyway this is why i’ve been rb so many fiddstan stuff lately. i just think they’re more interesting as a couple than fiddauthor. LMFAO#also bc i want stan to have Nice Things and fidds to have someone in his corner. they could fix each other. (<- guy making things up)#LMFAO#anyway. been thinking too much about the stan twins. sorry.

Me seeing random things like “oh poor Bill” or whatever cause maybe the book had stuff in it about his backstory or something:
#look he’s a great villain but that’s it#like he’s funny but I’d also punt him into the sun if I had the opportunity#I actually hate him which I think is the point of the show 😂#the fact that I feel like I’m in the minority just…😔✊#and the fact that I love ford makes me hate him even more lol#I’m just like ‘get away from him you butt’ 😂#this is me just rambling and I am sleep deprived but I still stand by it 😂#aceo rambles#gravity falls

Bitches will be like "damn am I overexaggerating how bad the current landscape is?" And then the top posts in a character tag that's not even involved will be "this post contains filtered tags [ship]"
#cath.txt#on my hands and knees praying either I run out of people to block or everyone shuts up. I don't lose because I'm Cursed.#sits on my porch with my gun whateverrrrr. I can kill everyone.#like you hauve to understand getting into gf again has been so good to me but it's also been “wow this is one of the most sickeningly#familiar depictions of what I've gone through over the past few years that makes me feel uncomfortably seen but also provides me great#solace and hope for my own future and greatfulness for what I have now“ and then I check tumblr and everybody is unironically shipping the#guy who got exploited and psychologically AND physiologically tormented as well as violated with his abuser because it's “funny” and#“they're both terrible” as though one of these people isn't a man who's made a lot of mistakes that made sense in the moment and the other#is a fucking interdimensional nightmare demon that now canonically has ran cults. like ok. thanks guys. and the realest kicker to me is the#fact that people show that three sided fuckhead more sympathy? some fucking how? like ok I see how it is. it's one and I'm tired and I'll#probablyyyy delete this in the morning even though it's buried in my own tags but word to the wise don't have things wrong with you that#make you effectively kin ford at 13 and then reconsume gf seven years later and look at how your life's progressed. like fuck dude one#second you're chilling and the next you get so mad about hearing shit about a book that you realize you're a fucking Stanford Pines irl and#have been for nearly half your life. what kinda sick joke is it that that fucking book was announced on my birthday anyway. come on man.

It's inappropriate- but the way Hardison and Eliot go back to Nate to ask to break a $100 to singles - reminds me of teenagers asking for money from their dad.
And their dad said "No."
#leverage#eliot spencer#alec hardison#nate ford#christian kane#aldis hodge#timothy hutton#its so inappropriate#but its so funny that they go back and ask nate for money#they look like teenagers asking for money from their father#and their dad said “no.”#also#i love hurley#the 12-step job#you can't tell me that they are family at this point#ten episodes in and they are family your honor#found family

Howdy Caroline, I saw a post about Talk shop Tuesday so I thought I'd be nosy on main. I wonder, how does research factor into your fic writing, and what was the most taxing research you had to do for a fic? 🐸
oooh hi, iva!!! thank you so much for shooting the ask--god knows i always love talking about fic!
to answer your question: i think most of my fic-related research is limited to "what episode did character x do this/say that", just so that i have the timeline of events down. i know it's not the end of the world if i don't perfectly remember how a certain scene went down, but i can't help it--i like being precise when it comes to at least recalling canon events.
outside of that specific brand of research (just making sure my timeline/recitation of quotes is all set), i'll sometimes do wilder research for like ... au projects that are set in a different time. that doesn't happen often (i think the reason why i tend not to write au's that are set other than present day is specifically because i get overwhelmed by the amount of research to be done), but when it does, i'm usually stuck researching for hours. that's probably why i just never got around to posting this one period jwds au i have. the plot keeps shifting, mostly to suit the research that i've done. deep sigh. one day i swear i'll finish writing that story and post it, but right now it's just gotten a little away from me. it's marinating.
outside of that story though, i think i've been lucky enough to not need to do too much research for fics . . . maybe that'll change one day (especially if i ever fall in love with a more period-drama-esque story), but ! ! ! as of now, i think my research time really only takes up 10 - 15% of my fic writing process.
#answered#thank u for the ask iva!!! <333#i do also. write suits fic every once in a while#and sometimes i do get tempted to just like. write a funny bantery scene of mike and harvey talking about. funny corporate law stuff#because i just think it's fun to talk about.#i think one day i want to write a leverage/suits crossover#of nate ford and harvey specter pissing each other off. just so much.#of harvey going ':) if someone is upset with a corporation they can just sue us :) take us to court. sure. let's see what happens'#and nate going ':) you know full well :) that a lawsuit :) will :) never :) go :) anywhere :)'#and parker going 'so yeah why is that.'#cue everyone looking at her and parker shrugging bc 'listen i am a thief. i don't actually care about law stuff. but we're stuck in this#elevator for at least another 2 minutes.'#(because hardison would be working on it with parker.)#and then nate gives the run-down on why corporate 'litigation' really just ends in a dead-end for 98% of cases#and the system is specifically built that way#and then also cue nate and hardison and parker point-blank calling harvey out for hiring a fraudster.#nate: you should have been disbarred for at least a dozen violations of the rules of professional conduct#harvey: YOU are telling ME how to be a lawyer. YOU. the actual THIEF.#nate: yes because at least thieves don't have actual rules that they need to follow. u really want to go there.#and that really would be. the dumbest fic i'd ever write. but i just think it'd be funny
