I actually agree with this post, not villainizing a child here but with the recent info from book of bill, it's more understandable why the twins acted that way in the end of the 2nd season.
Mabel, as a child, was understandly codependent on Dipper with their parents fighting (while she doesn't know about this, it doesn't really mean she can't feel it. Don't underestimate a child's sense of other's emotions, especially their family)
She probably felt like hey, I think there's something going on and it feels bad but I'll ignore it cause all I need to do is be happy and jolly to help bring smiles to their faces.
So she tries to compensate for it by doing things like dragging dipper to something so that they could hang out (for her but for dipper, it would just be humouring her, not actually choosing what he wants to do) I'm not saying this for all the episodes but it just crops up whenever I watch Gravity Falls that I feel like Mabel chooses more of what they do than Dipper gets to. I know that Mabel just wants to be good and help by doing those but its how a child thinks and I can't fault her for that.
It's a bit obnoxious, yes, but it's how a child thinks, they're obnoxious and naive. Dipper isn't excused from this too, he's sometimes portrayed naive in some episodes (like with Ford) but its so miniscule that remembering that yes, this kid that follows and solves paranormal cases, also seeks out parental figures in other people (the stans: even though, from an objective standpoint, I don't think being parental is in their lane, Uncles? Yes but parents? No)
Ford's just came out of a divorce (lmao but seriously, no person that just came out abuse should go be a parent, for the sake of their mental health and of their child) plus Ford is too out of touch with other people (man just came out of an portal, he needs time) while Stanley have been swimming in guilt, despair and depression trying to get back his twin (also from the post at the top (book of bill excerpt on dipper's hygiene)
Now getting back to Dipper and Mabel, Dipper is always portrayed as a nervous (wendy) but surprisingly steadfast pre teen in the face of weird stuff in gravity falls. He's always portrayed as a mature kid and a bit of a motherhen to Mabel (I can understand why Mabel imagined Dippy Fresh, cause Dipper is sometimes too much of a Motherhen, but it still puts me off for how different Dippy Fresh is from Dipper and its weird cause, is that how she wants Dipper to act? Cool and not a nerd? Cause, that just really puts me off even though I understand that Dipper can sometimes neglecting talking or even noticing others by being too invested in the Journal)
....... (Dipper hates Dippy Fresh, its on the wiki page of gravity falls, I can see how 'Dippy Fresh' as a whole offends him, even I am)
Is it a bit annoying cause he's a Motherhen sometimes? Yes but ever since Book of Bill gave a hint about their family situation, it's much more understandable now. He's mature cause he needs to be (not only for himself but Mabel) cause he realizes the situation and is trying to keep a part of his life together by taking a parental role. When he found the Journal and those mysteries came for him, Mabel and Stan, he found a guide in some unknown Author in the Journal that slowly, to that point of how much that Journal saved them, he saw the Author as an idol. Then he found out about Ford and just latched onto him, finding a parental figure in him through the Journal that indirectly helped Dipper but Dipper doesn't realize that he idolises (seeks a parent) in The Author, not the human Ford.
Of course, they got to know each other (Ford being put off by the fanboying yet flattered at the same time) and Dipper slowly learned to connect those views he has on the Author and Ford and just realising that yeah, this is a man, a man that while I admire, is also My Cool Uncle. (I still standby my notion that Ford can't be a parent for Dipper, it would be damaging for the two of them)
I'm glad though that Dipper found someone's who would at least indulge in one of his interest cause, look, in most of the episodes, we never get a clear glimpse of what Dipper's interest is. Like we know so much about Mabel, her love for boys, scrapbook, her talents and artistic skills, sweaters and puppets! But Dipper? None. He's only a nerd with a journal thats goes searching for the paranormal and a twin sister, nothing explicitly stated about him and we'd only find out about some of his interest in context clues.
Like seriously, the clone episode, we only found out Dipper can play instruments (with S cause it's 2: a banjo and another I forgot the name of) plus the Mason fact? Knowing that other characters (Stanley? Really, come on man) don't even know Dipper's real name just....it kind of drives home how Dipper is sometimes brushed off when he brings up his interest that for 2 entire seasons, no one even knew "Dipper" was a nickname.
When I look at the Gravity Falls Bible, it always suprise me that some facts about Dipper were shown (some are context clues, sometimes not even explicitly stated or shown) and it sometimes comes up to me that, do the characters even know that tid bit of fact about Dipper?
I don't know about you but I just feel bad for Dipper, not only for taking the part of mature parental twin but also for how much of his interest is brushed off since he's just "being nerdy" instead of a kid just wanting to discuss and share what he likes.
Looking back the ending of Gravity Falls while thinking about endings of other series like Amphibia and The Ghost and Molly Mcgee, Weirdmageddon has a message that is underwhelming when it comes to Dipper and Mabel's relationship and Mabel's potrayal in the show.
This isn't about Mabel getting tricked by Bill. She is a 12-13 years old that in that context she was feeling really bad and not thinking well what she was doing. That isn't relevant to the topic at hand and honestly it isn't a problem she did that, it does makes sense in the episode it happened.
Tumblr media
What i have an issue is how the narrative makes Dipper feel bad about considering staying studying with Stanford. This is something that Dipper was interested in and he was very fascinated by anything that was paranormal related. Stanford himself told Dipper he had a lot of potential and the kid was digging into it.
Mabel lashing out and not liking the idea of Dipper staying with Stanford is understandable in the episode Dipper and Mabel vs. the Future. She doesn't seem to have much friends back in her home and her parents are implied to not be the best. She gets scared of Dipper leaving, that's a reasonable fear for a kid to have.
Tumblr media
However, as i mentioned before, Dipper is made feel bad about considering choosing something he wants to do. It isn't Mabel who has to learn that things change and sometimes this brings things we don't like. She doesn't exactly consider what Dipper wants for himself, she mainly cares about how ¨she is going to be alone¨ and making her brother feel selfish for choosing his own path or do something that could make him happy.
Yes, she learns that things can't stay the same forever and they are growing up, that itself is a pretty good development for her and overall a good message to teach.
Yet her being codependent on Dipper doesn't get brought up nor addressed, in fact the series seems to praise this behavior of hers. In how Dipper has to do what she wants if not he is a bad brother. Mabel's clinginess and controlling behaviour to an extent isn't called out, which that itself is a problem.
Small: I want to add an extra point here that Mabel does have a short scene near the end of the episode that she tells Dipper that she won't get in his way if he wants to stay with Stanford and she was ¨acting nuts¨ in the dream bubble. This is good for her but it does still feel in part that her issues weren't fully acknowledged and it doesn't help she didn't say until after Dipper told her that he was going to stay with her and not be with Stanford, which is rather questionable in my opinion.
In contrast in Amphibia, Marcy Wu has a similar arc about change. The series explores how she can take her escapism too far and how she can be very selfish in plenty of ways, something that is potrayed as an aspect she has to learn from and realize that it isn't healthy.
Tumblr media
Her being too codependent on Anne and Sasha and their overall friendship is potrayed as toxic and the series explores this relationship a lot, having the girls grow over time and think about different aspects they have to work on.
In ¨True Colors¨ it is revealed that Marcy Wu learned about the Calamity Box the same day she got told by her parents that they were moving away. Very afraid of having to leave her friends behind and having to be alone in a new city, she found the Calamity Box and told Sasha and Anne about it. Worth of mentioning she didn't know if it would work but it was a desperate act of her just to not having to move away from her friends yet.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
When Sasha and Anne find out about this they are, not surprisingly, very pissed and push from Marcy away for a moment, making Marcy realize her mistake and eventually apologizes for what she did.
Tumblr media
In ¨All In¨ Marcy finally comes to terms with how she can't force Anne and Sasha to be the way she wants them to be and that her codependency on them isn't a good thing. She realizes that has to move away to her new home at some point, that things change but that doesn't mean the three of them have to stop being friends.
As you can see, there is a clear difference between how Mabel Pines and Marcy Wu’s characters and flaws are potrayed in the narrative. While Gravity Falls makes Mabel’s codependency and controlling behaviour to be something acceptable and that Dipper should conform to, Amphibia does the complete opposite and presents Marcy Wu’s actions as flaws she has and that can hurt other people, including her friends. She is the one that has to make a change and understand she has to work on herself if she wants to have new friends and keep these relationships as times moves on.
Since we are on topic, one thing that really bothered me is how Mabel created a version of Dipper that is ¨cool¨ and says yes and goes along with everything she wants to do. (Weirdmageddon Part 2)
Tumblr media
This has… interesting implications of how Mabel believes that relationships should work, or at least with her brother twin Dipper. A lot has to do with how she and Dipper have very different personalities and she maybe wishes that he was more like her, but expecting someone else to say ¨yes¨ to everything you want is a toxic mentality to have. And the episode itself doesn’t address this enough, it doesn’t bring up to Mabel she can’t expect people to work like this and she should try thinking more about what others wants.
Lets talk about The Ghost and Molly Mcgee. In this series Molly Mcgee often has episodes where she has to learn certain lessons. One of them she learns over time is that often she has to give up control and let what others want to do instead.
Tumblr media
A good example of this is ¨Ready, Set, Snow!¨ in which she is constanly trying to make Libby and Scratch to go and play outside in the snow with her without considering they would rather stay inside and sit near the fire for the moment. She spends most of the episode trying to find ways to make them go outside until she gets angry and goes out on her own. She has… quite of a mental breakdown in a sequence song. Scratch goes to check on her but he tells to her that she can’t do always what she wants and what it is important is for her to be spending time with her friends. Molly realizes she was wrong, goes back to the house and she apologizes for how she acted.
Molly has quite a lot of episodes like this, and all this becomes important in the series finale ¨The End¨ when she sees that Scratch has to go back to be Todd even if that means forgetting the memories he got as a ghost, her included. She tells Scratch that she is going to miss him a lot but she knows that forcing Scratch to stay wouldn’t be right. She encourages Scratch to go and ¨live his life¨ because she cares about Scratch being happy.
Tumblr media
Similar to Marcy Wu, Molly learns that she can’t force people to do what she wants and she has to let them choose for themselves. She knows that encouraging Scratch to do what he always wanted to do as human is the right thing to do, even if it means saying goodbye to him.
I do understand the idea that Gravity Falls was doing at with something among the lines of ¨Dipper and Mabel not repeating the same mistakes that their uncles did¨ but that doesn’t mean Dipper has to give up his dreams at expense of what Mabel wants. As Dipper said in VS The Future episode: he can still visit and they can still talk to each other. They don’t have to fall apart the same way Standford and Stan did. Just like in Amphibia, if Marcy still was able to remain friends with Anne and Sasha over the years, the same can be applied to Dipper and Mabel as siblings.
If not, it could be rewritten in a way that makes Dipper reconsider that he would like to wait a few years before joining Stanford in his adventures. That he is still a kid and wants to spend a while longer figuring himself out and be with Mabel before making a decision. That way it feels more like a decision he wants to do for himself and goes along with his character arc that he doesn’t have to rush to grow up.
As for Mabel, she has a lot of growing up to do. She has to learn overtime that Dipper is his own person and he can take is own path. That if she wants to have friends or have in general healthy relationships with others, she can’t make it always about herself and people have their own needs as well. She would have to work on her codependency and clinginess she has on others, specially her own brother. This would help her with being a more mature capable individual when she grows up.
This post on itself isn’t me hating on Mabel’s character since she has moments she can be good and i feel a lot of her behaviour comes from not being taught properly and being a teenager. The problem is that the series doesn’t address this behaviour enough and, as result, it comes off as the series giving an unintentional underwhelming message of potraying Mabel’s issues as something that should be acceptable and not her having a dynamic with Dipper that comes off as toxic. It is important to understand to learn to support others and not always make things about ourselves. That sometimes relationships change and we can’t force people to be in a specific way.

Viktor x Reader Headcanons
Pronouns for reader: Gender neutral, AFAB undertones if you squint
Relationship type: Platonic to Romantic
General Idea: Some silly little headcanons I have for Viktor because he's still my silly little princess. Even after the whole glorious evolution thing.
Content Warnings: S1 Viktor, no S2 spoilers, But there as little bit of s2 viktor's mindset, I'm projecting a little bit (a lot) but it's fine.
Tumblr media
~☆~
I honestly see Viktor as asexual with light aromantic undertones (kinda like demiromantic, I guess??). He rarely ever developes romantic feelings. Like its a once in a blue moon thing.
Like... he has to know you for YEARS before something in his head is like "Oh... hey they kinda cute?"
However, when he DOES develop feelings that go beyond friendship, Viktor HEAVILY struggles with coming to terms with them. Not in like a "I don't DO feelings" type way, but more in a "Well... no... it could be this" type of way.
Oh, his heart rate speeds up a little bit when you two accidently brush hands? It must just be his nerves.
When he does realize that he has feelings for someone, it's kind of like that scene in Gravity Falls where Dipper is like "It's not like I stay awake at night thinking about Wendy" and it cuts to him laying awake thinking about Wendy XD
If he likes someone romantically, he talks about them a lot. Like as if trying to bring them up as much as he can. Like "Oh (Y/N) mentioned something about that book, said they really liked it" Or "(Y/N) actually said something similar about that topic" If he could yap about you for hours, he probably would.
Even if you're being PAINFULLY obvious about your romantic feelings towards Viktor, he will firmly believe you're just being friendly.
Why he does it is a mix between two things: one is that he's just not awesome with people. And second is that he firmly believes someone like you could never love someone like him back.
One night, Viktor had been constantly working without break, so you practically dragged him to his room by his ear and forced him to get some rest.
Viktor has a strong habit of having his workspace FILLED with old mugs, sometimes days old. He doesn't really mean to, just too wrapped up in Hextech to really notice.
He also struggles with meals too. Just like above, because he literally just gets too wrapped up in his work.
If Viktor actually confesses feelings, it's such an interesting experience. Because he doesn't just flat out say "Hey I have feelings for you". He stumbles over his words and rambles about something random in the middle of it. So you gotta help him out a little bit.
Viktor's love language is quality time. He'll make sure his seat is next to you when it can, he always yaps about what he's uncovered about Hextech.
Speaking of Hextech, if you just sit there and watch him work? He'd about die of happiness on the spot. If you, someone he really loved, took an interest to something he truly loved DOING? Perfect.
He used to get really flustered about physical affection. Like you held his hand one time and he about combusted. He was red in the face for hours. He got better with it overtime, of course. But for the first few months, he was pretty much bright red the whole time.
Dates are rare, neither of you have the time for it. But when you two do have dates of some kind, they're mostly stay at home type things.
You know that thing kids do? Like playing their own separate things together? Parallel play, I think it's called? Yeah you two do that a lot.
Viktor will be reading some papers and you'll be reading a book, your feet in his lap.
Speaking of, Viktor is such a reader omg He doesn't read a lot anymore due to his constant workload, but when he does, he reads a lot of like... old books. The ones with yellowing pages and smell nice? Yeah... those ones!
If you two slept in the same bed, he'd be all like... giggly and nervous the first few times. Just like affection, he'd get used to it. But it's still cute.
When you two are cuddling, run your fingers in his hair. He'll melt right into you regardless of the situation. It's like an instant relax button for him.
Him laying his head on your chest, and you running your fingers through his hair? Something about it just... works. It calms him down a lot and makes him feel at peace.
His favorite place to kiss is the crook of your neck. Especially if you're around his height (he's like... between 5'7 and 5'10. I don't remember exactly).
Or your temples. It's simple, it doesn't attract a lot of attention. And let's be real, it's underrated as hell.
He's not big on PDA, but he'll hold your hand in public. He likes holding onto just one of your fingers, like your pinkie or something like that. It, just like temple kisses, is simple and discreet.
He doesn't often say "I love you". He feels bad about it, but you don't mind. He often says I love you without saying it. Things like holding you while you sleep, kissing your forehead as you two read in each other's arms, weaving your fingers with his while he works.
He gets self-conscious a lot. He thinks you could do a lot better than him and that he's not perfect.
Please kiss this poor boy all over and tell him he's perfect as is 😭😭
~☆~
A/N:The Arcane brainrot has gotten to me... This is how I'm coping with the finale. But I've wanted to write Viktor or Sevika stuff for a HOT minute now. I've been in the Arcane fandom for YEARS (a fanfic writer even longer) but this is my first Arcane fic... wild XD
For more fics: my masterlist!

I really liked Dipper and his stories, I think I need a Dipper x reader headcanon :)
A/N: YESSESSS DIPPER MY CUTIE PIEEEEE, i love this little one so much i really can’t
Warnings: NONE <333
Navigation!! // Masterlist!!
Tumblr media
Being with Dipper in Gravity Falls means you get to see a side of him that not everyone does. He’s always been curious and brave, but with you, there’s a softer, more vulnerable side that emerges. Dipper isn’t great at grand romantic gestures, but his affection comes through in small, thoughtful ways that show just how much he cares.
He loves going on late-night walks with you through the woods, where the two of you can talk without interruptions. The air is cool, the stars are bright, and it feels like you’re the only two people in the world. Dipper’s hand will find yours, and though he might start off a little shy, by the end of the walk, he’s holding on like he never wants to let go.
When the two of you are together, Dipper can’t help but smile more. You notice how his eyes light up when you laugh, and he’ll often find excuses to be close to you, whether it’s sitting next to you on the couch or sharing a blanket during a movie. He’s not always the most confident in expressing his feelings, but he’s incredibly genuine when he does. He might awkwardly stumble through a compliment or blush when you catch him staring, but the sincerity in his voice makes it all the more endearing.
Dipper’s protective instincts kick in whenever you’re in a tough situation. He’s always looking out for you, whether it’s offering his jacket when you’re cold or stepping in front of you when things get dangerous. He worries about your safety, but he also trusts you to handle yourself. It’s a balance he’s still figuring out, but he’s always there when you need him.
Sometimes, Dipper will surprise you with little notes or drawings he’s done. He’s not one for grand declarations, but you’ll find a page in his journal where he’s sketched the two of you together or a note that says something like, “You make everything better.” These small, heartfelt gestures mean the world to you because they’re so uniquely him.
Dipper also loves sharing his world with you. He’ll take you to all his favorite spots in Gravity Falls, telling you the stories behind each one. Whether it’s the spot where he solved his first mystery or the place where he goes to think, sharing these places with you feels special to him. It’s like letting you into a part of his heart that he doesn’t show to just anyone.
When you’re both caught up in a mystery, Dipper is laser-focused, but he never forgets to check in with you. He’ll make sure you’re okay, offer you a smile, or squeeze your hand reassuringly. It’s his way of saying that, no matter what, you’re in this together.
In quieter moments, Dipper loves just being close to you. He’ll lean his head on your shoulder while you read together or gently play with your fingers as you talk. He’s not always the most physically affectionate, but when he is, it’s incredibly sweet and tender. You’ve become his safe place, someone he can relax around and be himself with, no matter what’s happening in the world around you.
Dipper may be a bit awkward and uncertain at times, but there’s no doubting the depth of his feelings for you. He’s loyal, caring, and always trying to find ways to make you smile. Being with him is like being on an adventure every day—one filled with love, laughter, and a connection that only grows stronger with time.

OHHHHH YEEEESSS THANK YOU SO MUCH AAHHHH THIS IS SO GOOD!!!!
I can imagine when they first met Dipper was actually afraid of Hunter for how he looked, until the point he asked Wirt if he was even human, something that Wirt bearly deny it. THAT would be start for Dipper to actually want to investigate him more, who´s this guy? what kind of creature he is? why he looks so human? what does he do?
Well, Wirt is actually just human but the guilt for his actions had made him to have a twisted view of himself, until the point he thinks himself as some kind of sub-human or half beast like. I think Dipper realised soon than ever that Wirt is not a creature but in fact a poor boy with a unstable mental state, but before taking actual action he wants to know him first
Or well, at least thats a idea
Yes please I wanna read the Jekyll and Hyde one, its my favorite novel, yes please
Talking with a friend about Hunter!Wirt (Pinescone Addition)
@vacz told me to tag them, so here we go. These are some of the more innocent things we talked about-- thank you @xovera-toz for listening to my rambles as usual.
• Not gonna lie-- Dipper matches his freak. Like that boy is curious, pen at the ready, new journal to jot down all the data about Hunter!Wirt and the unknown. Wirt is a little flattered to be the sole subject of a journal, and tends to find himself curled up near Dipper, looking over his shoulder, or head in lap as Dipper writes his daily findings.
•Some of the things Dipper has noted. "Has a habit of Biting. Painful, but also followed by apology licking/grooming. I'm embarrassed to admit I enjoy this more than I should" "Is possessive-- but I once put a hit on a man, so I'm not one to talk" This one was directly from @xovera-toz: Wirt's nonexistent tail wagging because he saw Dipper writing "affectionate" in his journal page
"Watership Down/Monty Python Bunny. Looks innocent/is feral underneath... but also Looks Dangerous/Is Shy and Sweet underneath."
"He's a Freak :heartpulse: :heart: :two_hearts:"
"Very nice to snuggle With-- though tends to not let me leave once he's comfortable" "Scared of abandonment and rejection. Will take a lot of time and patience and trust to work through-- I have my Work cut out for me." "Has threatened to disembowel me if I leave...turned it in my favor (No I will not elaborate) ^((A/N: I can actually elaborate-- but it's a little more mature))
• In most of my Pinescone, my Ford has beef with Wirt for no other reason that it makes me laugh, and Ford being overly suspicious of Wirt (cause my Wirt can be a bit of a sneaky bun bun), as well a critical because he just wants the best for Dipper (even though Wirt is the best. It's a long process of Ford warming up to Wirt-- the way Ford acts around Wirt, is the way Wirt acts around Jason Funderberker). But in this au, now Hunter!Wirt is more dangerous-- more deranged. A lot more aggressive, and it's openly on his sleeve. He actually can hurt Dipper (and has in his excitement/affection). Ford: How could you date something so unstable!? What could be possibly going through your head! Where did this come from? Dipper: (looking at Ford, knowing this man dated Bill Cipher) ...Gee, I wonder....
• Despite sometimes the uncertainty, or stability of Wirt, Dipper can also see underneath he's just a scared boy, desperately trying to be a good brother-- and you know Dipper has a soft spot for good sibling figures. Even though he's aware Greg isn't in the lantern-- he plays along. Example: Wirt waking up and finding Dipper reading to 'Greg' He was only supposed to nap-- he didnt want to be weak and vulnerable-- didn't want to leave his back turned. He woke up frazzled, and panicked-- turning to look for Dipper, expecting him to be gone, or trying to kill him in his sleep. Instead he finds Dipper reading to 'Greg', showing the lantern his journal as he talks about all he's uncovered about his brother.
• Dipper braids Wirt's hair like he learned how to do with Mabel, sometimes putting flowers in it, as he whispers praises and gentle words of comfort. (Mabel has also done a few different hairdo's with Wirt's long mane-- Wirt often feels like a small dog getting fluffed up in those moments, whereas with Dipper it's a little more relaxing with someone who matches his anxiety).
• The both aren't the biggest fans of baths, but they work through it together, Dipper often guiding Wirt into the bath, and usually distracting each other, by talking for hours. They both end up a little prune-y, and a little cleaner-- even if the water is a bit swampy when they get out.
• ((Slightly more suggestive for older Pinescone)): Hunter!Wirt: W-what if I lose control? What if I bite you? What if I I tear you apart in a frenzy? Dipper: ...promise? Hunter!Wirt: !!!! ??? (Not sure how to feel about that reaction)
• Housewife Dipper helping to make this cabin a home, as he softly studies Wirt and the unknown, while balancing the usual ups and downs that comes with his field of intrigue. He's a lot like Jane from Disney's Tarzan. Fascinated-- a bit afraid, but more willing to learn and understand. And the more he does- the more endeared he becomes.
Tumblr media
((And those are some of the ideas-- I haven't even gotten into the Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde au portion, but let me know if you want to hear more?))
I'm a little flustered after everything-- I hope you enjoy >///<

The post of Ford being naturally affectionate haven't leave my mind omg but (in your opinion) what about the other way? What would happen if the reader is casually affectionate to the Stan's? Rubbing their hand on their back, leaning their head to his shoulders, briefly touching their hair, etc
I think they are both naturally affectionate, it comes out in them in little ways. But omg if someone did it to them?! Absolutely flustered! I think we've seen a lot from the series and so forth to suggest that both of them don't quite know what to do when someone turns the tables on them, and is geniunely interested in them.
(rest under cut)
Stanley loves it, he'll not think too much of you putting an arm around him or something small like that, but more affectionate touching (e.g your hand rubbing his back) without him somehow initiating it? He's a mess, he's not used to it and gets flustered in the beginning! He panics just a teensy bit and if you ask if he's okay or try to stop the touch he'll reassure you its fine, but he's doing a bad job at maintaining that smooth, confident facade, for sure ^^'
He'll make a few little jokes about it if he feels too startled about you initiating casual affection, even ones that are a little flirty, cause he does like it, he's just not used to it. (like "woah there, toots! hands off the merchandise!" or "you feel that? that's made of husband material!" *wink wink*) xD
He may even confess he doesn't think he'll ever get used to it, which (un)fortunately for him only spurs you on to do it as much as possible. (On a sadder note, I think Stanley has gone without so much affection, especially romantically, or has been used to things going badly in the past, that he might have some moments he's suspicious that you have ulterior motives. But I think, since having the twins over for the summer and reconnecting with his brother he'd be less jumpy/paranoid.)
But he likes a little bit of PDA, Stan's heart will swell with pride and affection at some of those touches, especially if you lean your head on his shoulder, link your arm through his, those sorts of things. It feels 'gentlemanly' to him, like when he used to go to the pictures as a kid, where the young lead would 'court' girls in the movies he watched. I mean, he watches the duchess approves, this man has a romantic streak! Just don't call him a sap, he'll never admit to it. Though, after a while he'll lean into it, and when he does he'll 'get you back' for being affectionate to him, like when you came up to kiss him on the cheek when he had a lull in the tour he was doing? Expect 'revenge' in the form of being teased mercilessly
(the kissing exchange rate is exceptionally high, so now you will receive 5 kisses back! The next day it's 10 kisses, 'why is it so high', you say? inflation ya know? but then stan forgets to count and is like 'ah, screw it!' and drops the play act to properly smooch you <3 if dipper and mabel are around to see these antics they will voice how gross this is haha)
Tumblr media
Stanford is more or less the same, in that he has gone without such affection for long periods of time, even if he had friends in other dimensions. Man is more touched starved and not as open (initially) to casual affection from someone, but once he becomes more familiar with you, he would be naturally affectionate too! It catches him off guard a lot more in comparison to his brother, though, he's still adjusting a little to 'normal' life, so its best to make sure he's aware that you're going to touch him as the contact might make him literally jump, out of pure instinct!
He's definitely flustered and surprised that someone else is initiating touch/affection with him, at first he is a little bewildered and feels insecure, he's out of his depth as he feels like doesn't know how to reciprocate and he hates the feeling; he feels bad because he is touch starved some of the time he becomes touch averse. (He'll have to bite the bullet and communicate that it's okay, instead of having an internal meltdown; he's been healing well from the past, so he'll quickly realise this is needed.)
So, he settles into welcoming it, he may be out of practice but it's nice to have someone who is comfortable around him so much that they would want to rest a head on his shoulder or hold his hand or let him hug them. That's just what friends do and he will start to trust and feel safer around you more, for the casual affection you show.
He's a little more reserved than his brother, but nevertheless he does like the attention - especially in public, though he's not really one for PDA, he likes holding your hand.
Just might take him a while to fully realise when its romantic vs platonic, potentially, but if you're already in the romantic zone, I think he'd be a lot more aware that you're being affectionate and he'd still have times he'll blush because of it and get all dreamy-eyed since he's not used to it, but also he just loves the reassurance your physical touch gives him that you love him too! He definitely confesses at points that he doesn't know if he'll ever get used to the casual affection you give to him so easily, will sometimes even apologise for being caught off guard by your affection. Does (rarely) get a little annoyed by your affection when he's absorbed in his work becuase he doesn't want to be distracted ^^' but that's only because physical touch is actually a strong love language for him, he tends to feel like he's been switched off or short circuiting when you rub your hand across his back or through his hair, he'll never finish those equations now! hehehe
(have you ever seen those tiktoks where someone is like asking my nerdy bf about *insert interest here* whilst wearing something revealing, or something along those lines and they get all flustered and trip over htier words? yeah, that's Ford! He'll make a good attempt at trying to be composed at first tho, but it's ultimately gonna fail!)

୨⎯”STANLEY PINES DATING HEADCANONS”⎯୧
Tumblr media
He would call you nicknames like 'sweet cheeks' 'sugar pie' 'honey crackers' 'hot stuff'
When you ever feel like you're in your lowest moments this man doesn't know what to do to comfort you BUT he will try his very best to cheer you up. In the Book of Bill, his life has been in his lowest moments and there was no one to comfort him except for his mom, Jimmy Snakes (probably) and Stanford. Taking you to dinner (his treat ofc but only because he hates seeing you all depressed) go fishing and getting a free souvenir from his Mystery Shack.
This man is STRONG, never doubt his strength, he can punch, kick, and punch again. All his fats are his muscles so if you ever have anything heavy to carry just let him do it or if you got a sprained ankle because of your clumsiness, expect this man to insult you first before carrying you like you weigh nothing, ok he might struggle BUT JUST FOR A LITTLE BIT.
Needs constant reassurance, this man has always been looked down and stepped on in his whole life only for himself to stand up again without anyone's help. If you happen to get in a relationship with him, he will ask and look at you for support and words for him to keep going. He can get a bit dependent on you but not always, he knows how to stand up for himself after decades of insults from others and your praise may seem skeptical for him but knew better than to trust your words.
This man cannot read without his glasses, if you see him without his glasses and he's trying to read something on his news paper or watching TV, you can see him squinting his eyes in a verge of closing them.
If someone harasses you or talks bad about you, this man will definitely talk shit to someone and punch them so hard they will end up in the hospital.
He's prideful and won't back down to any teasing you call him (in a playful manner) but when it's serious moments, he'll have a hard time expressing his feelings because it always turns to anger or walking out but when he does something wrong, it'll take him a few minutes to apologize because he was never one to apologize or people would just ignore his apology.
Stanley isn't a fan of those cheesy romantic things like, giving flowers, chocolates, writing poems and stuff like that. Unless it's valentine's day or your birthday, he'll ask Mabel and Dipper for help on how to greet you, set you up with him. Just because he's not that type of man doesn't mean he's not showing his love and affection for you.
When you're not around, he would fr brag you to anyone 'Have you seen Y/N? well, bad luck for you buddy, you literally missed a sight for sore eyes. Which happens to be my significant other!' and then he would laugh at the child or 'Look here buddy, Y/N is someone who's very passionate on anything they do, I mean look at them! don't you feel the raging flames of passion they're putting there?' he pointed the direction where you stood and then it's just you arguing with a karen in the grocery store while he grins lazily as he sips his soda 'Yup, very passionate'
When you two got into an argument and didn't end well, he would stay up all night thinking about it, tossing and turning on the bed with a groan. He will apologize but it's messy because he doesn't know how or it's too hard for him to do say it. "Look, I made a mistake and I... I know what I did was wrong and I just wanna say..." long pause "...m'sorry..." in the most quiet yet audible apology you'll ever hear but if that didn't budge you he'll try even more "Ok! ok! I really... am! I'm sorry, ok? what I did to you was wrong, I'll give you space if you need it and... I'm sorry, again, really" but you can't stay mad at him for long so you forgive him in an instant.
Overall, a patient and understanding partner is what he needs perhaps someone who has the same ego as him would be fun, an adventurous partner would be his cup of coffee since he is the most wanted criminal in America, you two would be partners in crime >:)
A/N: hope y'all like it, might be ooc of Stanley Pines

what's your favorite post-canon myster twins headcanon
no idea who the myster twins are (😉) but the MYSTERY twins hell fucking yeah dude. i'm somewhat familiar i guess. whatever.
it's not gonna surprise any of my moots or anyone who reads my stuff, but codependent!twins is my favorite.
the unspoken understanding when one of them wakes up in the middle of the night. the time it takes for them to get comfortable letting the other one go anywhere by themselves (the last time they did that, the world ended. never again. they'll just always go everywhere together forever. that's healthy, right?).
being homesick for gravity falls while they're back in piedmont.
not recognizing themselves in the mirror or photos from prior to the summer. deciding that maybe they like the new versions better, even if they have fondness and affection for the old ones.
reaching for wrists and sweater sleeves.
jokes no one else understands.
more mystery hunts.
scars you can see. scars you can't.
a newfound confidence in themselves because, despite everything, they survived, triangles be damned.
mabel carries her grappling hook in her backpack and doodles on her wrists. she picks at her scabs until they bleed. she cuts her hair shorter and smiles wider through gritted teeth. hopeful at all costs. when she laughs, it's loud. when she cries, it's all at once and messy and gross. not cute, she tells dipper. distinctly not cute.
dipper has fear. so much fear. all the time. locks arms with mabel. locks pinkies with mabel. feels safer with mabel. he comes home stronger, too, though—physically and otherwise. he spent three days alone in the apocalypse. he saved his sister. he won't let anything bad happen to her ever again. he's stubborn and determined and pushes the fear down and steps on it and punches it. he will go forward.
the adults in piedmont don't love this codependency. they're concerned for them, maybe rightfully so.
but then again, it doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks anymore, does it?

Thinking of your prism pines au and the powers the pine twins would have.
lest start with the powers the both have. Going 2d to 3d, bill’s deal powers, gravity manipulation, dream hopping/manipulation, minor mind reading, and perceive the fourth dimension (due to bills ability to perceive and interact the third dimension).
DIPPER
I think dipper would have logic and paranoia base powers. Thus being able to interact slightly with the with higher dimensions(like fourth dimension), change item dimensional plane, saw someone suggest site time manipulation in the gaslit au and I like it. Thinking about it I think his powers would be more driving people insane and encouraging paranoia.
MABEL
Mabel’s has creation based powers. Crating things out of thin air, changing how things fit together (moving body parts around), having an easier time with dreamchopping/manipulation, stronger mind reading, and minor mental influence on people emotions.
I think it will be a lot of overlap of how they show up but different roots. (like ADHD and autism symptoms)
OHHH! I really like these!
Dipper spiraling into mysteries and unknowingly infecting people around him into paranoia.
Mabel unknowingly affecting peoples emotions when she's around them, and then when she realizes freaking out and worrying how mcuh she's been affecting people.

IDEAS FOR FICS PART 1 [FIDDLESTAN]
-> #Free ideas to use (to find more similar things for fics)
Fiddlestan idea, where Stanley and Fiddleford work together to fix the and bring Stanford back.
During this time they come closer to each other and while feeling like mess they both help each other fix some things.
They both are basically a walking mess with Trauma.
Stanley helps Fiddleford during his panic attacks and calms him down when needed. Stan gives him attention and always listenes about his problems (the divorce and difficul situation with his son. Stanley also helps Fids with quiting his addiction (the memorygun).
Fiddleford made Stan aware that he isn't a worse copy of Stanford. He tells him that he is loved and once Stan opens up to him. Fidds explains how fucked up Stan's whole situation was. Moreover he shows affection to such a touch-starved person that Stanley was at that moment.
Stan and Fiddleford get closer to each other during their bonding time, until they fall for each other and form a relationship.
[They smoke together, go out and Fidds even started teaching Stan playing banjo (with difficulties but still)]
For years they try to open the portal once again, but without the other journals this seems almost impossible. [Just a reminder that the whole portal thing was Bill's idea and he gave Stanford the project. In conclution very HARD TO DO]
And then years later Dipper and Mabel show up..!
Fiddleford and Stanley are in relationship for 30 years. They basically are the "old married couple" But historians will say that they are just 'roommates'.
Mabel basically can smell the romance from distance, while Dipper is ignorant/unaware until someone pointed out this to him.
Stanley & Fidds even have matching earings!
[Also Fidds likes to call Stan Darlin', Hun and Stan calls Fidds Cowboy eventually That's My Cowboy! When noone is around]
Fidds never went crazy or anything. He even repaired his relationship with son! Yes, he might have still got some brain damage from using the gun in the past. (So from time to time he can be forgetfull) But he is better now!
When Stanford comes back there is also a lot of mess. Ford punches Stan and Fidds is right behind him to help him. Stanford is mostly confused by everything that at first he doesn't even notice that Fiddleford and Stanley are in a relationship.(He's just as blind as Dipper)
There is some arguing and Fiddleford is pretty much pissed at Ford for being ungratefull.
Once he overheard Stanford "talk" to Stan that "at the end of this summer you give me back my identyti, my house and this all mystery shack is over"
And he confronted Ford immediately yelling at him that "the world doesn't go around him" And he had no idea how much sacrificed for him and how both of them suffered. (After that 'conversation' I think that Ford finally sensed that something was going on between Fidd and Stanley]
Shortly after Fidd "talked" with Ford, he immiediately went to Stanley, assuring him that everything is gonna be alright and they are both in this together. That he is NOT alone.
[I feel like everyone saw at least once that time of fiddlestan au in art or something BUT-]
LET'S FINALLY GET TO THE MAIN POINT!!!
In this au everything goes similar to the canon, so Weirdmagedon still happened. Everything happened in a similar way and in the end Stanley saved the town. (Pls no jokes)
Ford had to erase his memories, with the memory gun. The weapon that Fiddleford once created and almost ruined his life. And now it erased the mind of the man he loved.
Fidds after realised what happened he was devastated.
He was furious at Ford's action, even though it was the only way to save everyone.
He was heartbroken seeing the man he loves not recognising him. As if there was noone on the other side.
The guilt was eating him alive, knowing well that HE created the gun that took away his love of life.
And after learning that it was Stanley's plan to use the memory gun on himself and not Ford's.. Fiddleford was basically tearing up.
Seeing Stan's lack of reaction after waking up and seeing his 'loved ones' and not recognising them was heart-breaking. Stanley didn't seem to remember neither his nephews nor brother or even him.
When Stan looks at him. There is nothing.
It hurts to look at the man you love. You can't help, but see that he doesn't see you the same way or even recognise you. That there is nothing beside the lost gaze and lack of connection. No smiles, no love. Just confusion.
And even though the Stanley he once know was 'erased', Fiddleford takes a deep breath and with clear sadness in voice says:
"He was there for me when my mind was falling apart and now I'm gonna take care of him." And then hugs gently confused Stan.
I belive that it would take more time for them to bring Stan's memories back. (But that's up to you how you want it)
I imagine that there would be a lot more trouble with gaining back memory for Stan. Like maybe very slowly.
Their first attempts would be unsuccessfully. No improvement. Staley doesn't remmeber anything about his live. Fotos are blank for him. He even misstooks his photo with children, thinking that on the picture is Ford and not him.
"I'm sorry, I- I really don't remmeber any of this.." Stanley said, while holding the photo album.
Everyone would be devastated. Soos, Ford, twins and Fiddleford.
But suprisingly, Fiddleford would be the one who would 'seem' to be the calmest of all of them at least on the surface. He spends a lot of time with Stanley, not necessary trying to restor Stan's memory, but geniuently spend some pleasant time together.
But deeply inside Fidds is actually really strugling. Just instead of thinking about the pain, he tries to focus on helping Stanley. He had a first hand experience with memory issues and he doesn't want Stan to suffer the same.
He also tries make Stanley feel as comfortable as possible in the New situation, while trying to bond.
They drink coffee, they watch tv, they talk. Maybe not necessary about his past.. (Stanley feels pressured, every time someone tries to recall his memories without any results) So with Fidds, he feels more relaxed.
Stanley generally feels around Fiddleford most comfortable. (He doesn't feel any obligation) And he genuelly likes him and EVEN MORE he starts to like him to the point that he's questioning himself.
Stanley: I think, I might have a crush on Fidds..?
Mabel geniuently touched that even after loosing memories the true love still remained around around them, but also jealous due to the fact that he still doesn't recall her : ...
Mabel: He's literally your husband.
Stanley: He is?? I mean- But I don't even know him..?
[Sometimes someone needs to remind Stanley that he's married to Fidds. He forgets it often, since it sounds so unrealistic for him]
Also, when Stan starts 'crushing' on Fidds, Fiddleford is very aware of it.
He immiediately catches up on simple signals like
- Random nervousness
- Playing with hands
- Unnecesarry jokes at wrong time
Just the same behaviour as from 30 years ago, when Stanley started catching feelings for him. [It makes him happy to see this once again]
Fiddleford pretends that he doesn't know. He doesn't want Stan to freak out or something.
And it goes like this..
They spend some time. Twins still try to regain Stan's memory in any way possible. Ford feels helpless. And during this time they are rebuiling the mystery shack.. (because they need a place to sleep, am I right?)
Until one day..
Fiddleford was sitting outside, taking a break from repairing the shack. All of this still seamed unrealistic for him.
He was alone.
He needed to be alone.
He felt as everything was falling apart with him all together.. He just needed some time alone. If he was about to have a breakdown, he didn't want to anyone see it.
Not Ford, not kids and especially not Stanley.
He just needed to f̸̯̞̤̻̬̯̣͙͉̿̑̾͌ͅo̶̧̅r̵̫̹̟̱̖̺̝̐̾͌̄͋̈́͜͠ḡ̴̹̰̘̫͍͇̜͜ę̵̞̯̗̺̗͙̈́͑̀̓̓̆͠t̸̡̛̞̭̪͖̬̱̮͋́̋͝ chill a little-
Then as the man sighed, he saw in the corner of his eye his lying banjo. He hadn't played in a while.. It was his firt though.
So without overthinking, the man took his instrument and started playing some random nutes. After all music always calmed him down a little.
Before he could even notice, nutes turned into melody, into songs he once used to play often during this summer and not only..
It was like this until a familiar face arrived.
"Huh, I like this melody." Stanley said with a small smile, looking directly at his instrument.
Fiddleford looked at his partner, slightly confused and shocked by his arrival. Something made him stop playing, as he realised that what he was playing they both used to love.
They used to play it regulary.
So there was no suprise, that Fiddleford hoped that maybe just maybe would be some kind of recognision. Unfortunately as soon as he met Stan's clueless eyes, he knew the answer.
"Really?" But instead of shoving his dissapointment, Fidds just asked him kindly.
"It's nice." He said as he sat next to the man with a banjo. "Keep going." Stanley encouraged him and how was he supposed to say no?
So he played. Just to see more smile on his face. Just to act as if this was normal. As they used to do.
After a while he noticed, how the other man started staring at his instrument. Fidds saw the curiousity in his eyes, and how paid attention to his movement.
Then he paused to Stans shock.
"Wanna try?" He offered with a gentel smile.
"Try?" Stan sounded suprised. "Nah, I'm gonna break this little thing." He said unsurely. "These hands are pretty clumsy recently." He joked.
"Break it? Such nonsense." Fidd chuckled with a smile and placed the banjo in Stanleys hands. "The least could happen is for one of the string to break. Don't worry."
Despite his first protest in the end Stan looked at the instrument and took it in his hands gently.
Then the man ran his hand over the instrument and all the strings rang.
"Nice." He commented. "How do you start?" Stanley asked and it took Ford a second to realise what he was asking for.
"You start with this one." He answered shortly, pointing at one of the strings. "You know.. you won't be able to play the same song at first try, it takes-"
Fiddleford was interrupted, as Stan started playing. To his suprise it wasn't any kind of weird noises by pulling random strings. No, nothing like that.
It didn't even seem as his first try, when they were young and Fiddleford started teaching Stan playing on banjo.
It was the same melody he played just a second ago.
And it wasn't just a mare try.
He did it perfectly. Just as if he knew this song.
As if he knew how to play it.
As if he remembered it.
And it didn't seem as if he was putting in this any kind of effort.
Stanley just played.
And he seemed so happy and relaxed, until he finished and the realisation hit him hard.
"How.. how did you do this?" Fidds asked first.
"I.." Stan started just as confused as he was. "I don't know." He admited trufully. "My hands were just moving on its own." He tried to explain, but seemed just as lost as him. "I didn't- I didn't think what I was doing. It just happened." He finished, looking directly at Fiddleford very confused, as if looking for the answer.
Fidds confused as him, tried not to give himself unrealistic hopes.
When it came to Amnesia it rarely affected motor skills, according to the researches. Just like walking or ridding a bike. So that would explain this 'phenomen'.
He did it instinctively.
"I teached you this one." In the end Fidds decided to be trufully. "We played it lots of times, until you didn't need the sheet music."
"Oh." Stanley said clearly dissapointment.
For a moment Fiddleford was afraid, that mentioning the past would made Stan uncomfortable, or make silent.
But fortunatelly Stanley fast showed that it didn't bothered him this time.
"Was I a good student?" Stan asked instead with a smirk. "Seems pretty easy for me." Then he added with cockyness, which made Fidds only chuckle.
"The worst one." He couldn't help himself, but taste his patience a little.
"Watch it Cowboy." The man said with smirk, so full of himself as he played a few random, but melodic notes on banjo.
And just then-
"Wait- What did you just call me?" Fiddleford asked rapidly, hoping that he didn't overheard wrong.
Stan looked at him again, taking a pause, as if trying to recall what he said.
"A Cowboy." He said slowly, realising he didn't know why he choosed this kind of words.
"Stanley, I've never mentioned that I am a Cowboy, nor that I'm a fan of them.." Fidds said immiediately and once he saw the expression on his partner's face , he knew. "Stanley." He said so hopefully and full of love. "You.."
He wanted to say You remember
He wanted to reach him..
"I-" The man in fornt of him sounded so confused, but also so hopefull at the same time.
But then rapidly grabbed his head, with a hiss.
"I- think I'm gonna have a headache-" He added painfully.
At once Fiddleford moved to him, taking him gently by his back.
"Shh.. Take it slowly, dear." Fidds said gently to calm him down.
Even though inside he bursting with excitement Stan's healt was his piority number one.
And then Stanley started regaining his memories back!!!! :D
This idea is free to use. If you want you can write a fic about it or just do anything.
Hopefully you enjoyed this idea!!!

Your reverse falls AU looks so amazing I've been so obsessed, I'd love to know more about it so this is me on my knees asking for a little lore drop🧎‍♀️‍➡️🙏
How about we talk about how Will got to Earth? This concept is a bit confusing, so the text is going to be a bit long, I doubt you'll read it all but I'll post it anyway!!!
First of all, it's important to inform you that Ford, just before this, manipulated Will into a deal where he would take his soul “ok, Moone, how?”
here's a text from my pocket demon (co-creator) with the explanation!
“He couldn't trick him like that, it was too daring. So he was going to trick that angel back. Revenge. He was already obsessed, so that angel, his Muse, would definitely be his now.
He would prove to be smarter than a creature like that. So he came up with a good line, saying that he actually agreed with William (and in a way he did) but that he needed some time to finalize things. In the meantime, Gleeful began studying forbidden rituals on how to manipulate a contract.
Then, on returning to William, he said that he needed a helper who wasn't human. He mentioned whether William had any friends, and lucky for Gleeful, William mentioned his gang. Talks came and went, and the scientist said that he wanted to choose one of the gang members, and William agreed, thus making a contract. But it was never said that there were exceptions.
So it's obvious that the chosen member was William himself. That blue devil posing as a fake angel felt more than foolish for falling for such a low trick.” (And yes, this is inspired by Dipper and Bill's Puppet Opera deal! Yay)
Now that this concept has been explained, let's explain what exactly happens to the Portal in this universe.
Stanford Gleeful has always been very stubborn about the portal, refusing to lift a finger to make it, but he wanted it, he needed it for his great human liberation. Will now in possession of Forrd couldn't complain, not in a way that could hurt Ford, and he insisted that he would do it one way or another in the most perfectionist way he could. That's why the portal took 30 years to make, with various tests that may have affected Gravity Falls, but didn't give away the location of the portal.
Okay, where does Will come into this? Well, it's no mystery to anyone that Ford is obsessed with Will, and having him in his possession without being able to have him completely (physically) made him think. Okay, maybe an interdimensional creature really was useful for building the portal, and having him there too… that would be curious… that was around the beginning of the 90s.
At one of the portal's openings, Ford forced Will to enter by pulling him by the chains, a very unpleasant situation for William. Especially as he had to dress up as the Maid :P

TLDR
Okay I cannot believe I'm about to go off like this, but this has been bothering me for awhile, and it's only making me more spiteful. I have been enjoying the influx of Billford art lately. Amazing, great wonderful. What I have Not been enjoying, is the absolute vitriol the Billdip fans have been getting since the influx of TBOB. I was a billdip shipper for awhile. Hell I was a billdip shipper when I was a Parapines shipper-- I liked shipping Dipper with boys. I was also like 14 or 15 at the time. Obviously, if you follow me now, you'll probably notice what my main ship for Dipper is. I grew out of Billdip, and moved on to Pinescone. I have been shipping Pinescone for 10 years. However, not once did I go around saying "Lol, glad I matured and became a better person and shipped something healthier", nor did I post in the billdip tag, condeming people for a fictional ship! And saying mine was better because it was less problematic.
"I'm really glad people stopped shipping Bill and Dipper together. Bill is a 1000 year old triangle demon, and Dipper is 13--" Stop. Repeat what you just said.
"Bill is 1000 year old triangle--"
Repeat that last word to me. "....triangle?" TRIANGLE! I'm sorry what?! This ship is already completely wild enough. You're getting mad at this fictional age gap-- AND BILL IS A FUCKING SHAPE! A FUCKING SHAPE! This ship was weird from the moment GO! And Billford isn't any better. IT'S STILL A SHIP WITH A FUCKING SHAPE! And you're going to sit on your high horse and look down on the Billdip community. On top of it-- they have an age gap too! Bill is still thousands of years old or whatever-- however long it's been, who knows? And Ford was in his 20s or so when he met Bill. That's still a huge, ridiculous age gap-- that Bill could easily use and manipulate; which he did....and then also caught feelings and became a sad ex, but that's beside the point~ Both of these ships are still insane. And again, the bigger thing I think people are just ignoring about these ships--is that Bill is a TRIANGLE! THREE LINES CONNECTED TOGETHER! And this is the hill you're going to die on? ...Cause apparently it's mine. First of all-- as many people pointed out-- Ford Pines did not exist until the second half of the final season. People couldn't ship Fordbill because there wasn't any Ford to introduce.
"Well, even before Ford, I never shipped Billdip! I always disliked it." ...Okay, that's totally fine. Not everyone needs to like or agree on the same ship. Lord knows there's probably people who don't really care for Pinescone either. There's a lot of popular ships that I can't stand. But I'm don't go into a ship tag I don't like, screaming to a void for self validation. I don't go around mocking other people for ships that they had in 2014-- or even still today! It doesn't matter! I did that when I was a kid-- and then realized that was rude, and it was better to just ignore the ships I didn't like and enjoy the ones that made me happy. And grow a community of kind, like minded friends. And listen, I am all for safe spaces and being able to block things that make you uncomfortable. I am not saying people who find the BillDip ship uncomfortable to be idiots or babies or overly sensitive-- or anything like that. I think if something makes you uncomfortable, that is okay and I think it's perfectly fine to blacklist a tag that you don't want to see. I also think it's imperative that people tag things as accurately as they can so people looking at your work can know if one of your pieces has a thing that they don't like-- and therefore can avoid. What I don't appreciate is the fanhate for this ship that is sprouting up like weeds. You can not like something, you can be disgusted by it (I have my Gravity Falls ships I can not stand, nor do I feel comfortable with), but attacking real people for a FICTIONAL SHIP-- two characters who are drawings on a piece of paper and can not be affected mentally, physically or emotionally by fanwork; who still retain the same shape after everything we put them through-- to the point that you send death threats, or threaten to Doxx, or just harass relentlessly, I have always found that more childish and disgusting. You are causing real world pain to people. Me fucking up Dipper Pines is not going to do anything to him-- because he doesn't actually exist. He's a cartoon character. I could squash him and stretch him in Wonka's taffy machine--- I could throw him mock speed at a wall and watch him explode on impact-- but he still exists. He's not dead; I can pick him up and dust him off, and If I wanted-- I could decide that eh, 'Not a scratch on him'. And I'd be right. Because he is a cartoon character, and I am just a fangirl. I can not change anything about him-- I have no ability to make anything I headcanon canon. And even if I was the original artist-- it doesn't change the fact that Dipper would still be nothing more than a creation. A construct of shapes; he can not be hurt or traumatized in a way that leads to real life consequences-- because he is not real. I am not a cartoon character. My friends are not cartoon characters. Artist and Writers who stay in their lane...are not cartoon characters. If you hurt us...it will linger. It will leave a scar. If you can not tell the difference between Fiction and Reality, then I think maybe media might be too much to handle-- and I think you need to really reevaluate yourself.
And just to vent some other things that i keep seeing that are frustrating: You can't claim the twins are only 13-- and then on August 31st go "Happy 20-something Birthday Mabel and Dipper!" And then proceed to drop a picture of them as adults. Well which is it? Do they age or not? Because Gravity Falls showed them canonically aging. If you think the twins age-- then you can't suddenly turn around and go, 'no you can't ship them-- Dipper is a child!' but you drew him as an adult. So sorry, it looks like you can't draw the twins grown up anymore. You claimed they're 13, so better draw them 13 forever--. Aged up stories and works exist for a reason, especially for a fan who grew up on the series. The characters might have grown up alongside them. It's not unlikely for a person to ship Billdip when Dipper is much older.
And on that note, for people who are like 'well older billdip is fine-- it's just people shipping him during the show that deserve to die.' Okay... and like I said, this rant is coming from a recent influx of Billford shippers spitting on Billdip shippers. You know? The TOXIC Old Man Yaoi!
You're still shipping something that is problematic. You are still shipping something twisted and wrong. And I am not judging you. I am here for this divorced arc. I am thriving. But you can't just pick and choose what is and isn't okay. And let me first off explain; if there is something that personally triggers you about a toxic ship, and you want to avoid that-- again, perfectly understandable. Perfectly reasonable. You are the makers of your content space. And I am not judging anyone for that. I want people to be safe. I want people to have a good time in fandom spaces. I want people to not have to deal with the things that upset them or frighten them, or disgust them. But you can not say one is fine, and one is not. They're both bad! They're both toxic. In real life, these ships would both be charged with serious crimes! And yes, there are some crimes that are worse than others, and if you asked me what I thought was more problematic-- I'd say Billdip-- but both of these ships are extreme, and severe in their problematic content. You are still consuming problematic content. If it's a personal thing, that's fine; avoid it. But don't sit there throwing stones from your glass house.

Do you think ford would try to make a clone of the person he's obsessed with? Idk i feel like it might be up his ally to pull something freaky like that. Like obviously it's not actually them but they would have similar reactions to certain "stimuli" 👀. He's curious and no one has to know.
Also on another note about somno stuff, what if before you wake up from being drugged you have a wet dream about him and you feel so bad like hes so much older than you and here your lusting after a man thrice your age. He could be your father for christ sake but hes so goddamn cute and sweet and brilliant, its like watching nuclear fusion in real time.
You offer little acts of affection that can be brushed off or you think fords sleeping while you kiss his cheek/forehead or touch his arm or hand. You think you're not good enough for a literal genius and he's just going full send into creepville.
Using while you sleep, stealing your things keeps MULTIPLE journals on your habits, preferences, and anything password protected from him wont be for much longer. The man cant be bothered to touch himself anymore because its utterly lackluster in comparison to being inside you.
Also seeing you be sweet to mable and dipper?? Mans is gone, he's thinking about everything he missed out on while he was stuck running for his life for decades but the domestic moments have him hook, line, and sinker. He considers what it would be like to start a small family or just pretends that his great niece/nephew are his and your kids. Just desperate for the normalcy he lost for so long.
tw // implied noncon, somno, stalking
omg so yes on the clone thing. like absolutely he’d make a clone of them. he’d definitely use the clone as practice for the real you tho.
also the somno thing, you feel so bad for it and you can barely look him in the eyes. and he’s still reeling at the fact that he managed to get away with it. he starts to notice how you’re becoming more affectionate too and he takes that as sign to be even more aggressive with his behavior cuz obviously you’re falling for him.
i feel like seeing you interact with the kids is def one part of why he fell in love with you too.

We all know how awesome Linda and Shermie are. Time to air their dirty laundry. XD Flaw time!
Shermie:
Always misplacing his reading glasses, DESPITE the fact that he had lasik years ago and has good vision otherwise. They're ALWAYS on his shirt collar or in his pocket.
Really struggled with showing affection to his son at first because of how he was raised. But simultaneously spoiled him for the first few years to over compensate for how he was treated and because he almost lost Jason. By the time Jason's 3, he's a bit of a brat and Linda and Shermie start turning things around. Shermie is MUCH better about showing affection and saying "I love you" to his son and Dipper now.
Constantly forgetting the keys to his office. Linda has taken to bringing a spare set, but on days when they don't go in to work together, he has to pick the lock. It's such a thing that his work buddy will stroll up, sipping a coffee in one hand, holding one for Sherm in the other, and when Sherman's done, he goes "What's your time?"
"3.75 minutes."
" Nice! That's down 30 seconds from Tuesday."
Stan taught him how to do it when Sherman was 8, thinking it would be funny. What he did NOT consider, despite Ford's warnings was that subsequently, Sherman got into ALL of the Stans' stuff. Because he could pick the lock to their rooms. He would like to just throw Ford's clothes and bedding on his floor and make a little nest. Then leave it there. XD And start going through Stan's drawings and doodle in his notebooks and textbooks. Sometimes he'd leave candy or drawings in there for them though, so they couldn't stay TOO mad at him.
Gets WAY too into things sometimes. Like he'll sit down and read an entire book series over the course of a couple of days. Same with tv shows. He'll sit and watch a show from like 7:00 p.m to 8 in the morning sometimes. XD Linda found a way to wire the tv and lights in the livingroom to a switch upstairs and will get up and flip the switch, shutting down the lights and tv and yell "GO TO BED!" From upstairs. XD
PEN. CLICKING.
Refuses to rest when he's sick.
Snores like a Bear.
Works himself to the bone and can often be found asleep at his desk at home, his armchair, the couch, or the kitchen table. Linda has to akwardly half pick him up and take him to bed when he does this.
Linda:
Chronic sock stealer. She's constantly misplacing her socks and steals Sherman's
Chronic sweater stealer. She claims it's because his are warmer, really it's because she likes the way he smells and wearing his sweaters is comforting to her. It drives him insane though because she takes his NICE sweaters that he wears to work sometimes. Once Mabel got good at making sweaters and Sherman found out the REAL reason Linda took his sweaters, he started buying material for Mabel to make Linda more sweaters (space themed) and would put a dab of his cologne near the collar when it was finished. Solved that problem xD
Blanket hog.
Gets too into Soap Operas. She, Stan, her sister and one of her brothers would get into a show, then call each other on a 4 way line every week to watch the show together, and they would ALL be yelling. Sherman would have to come down and be like "LINDA! I just got Jason to sleep! If you wake him up, there will be hell to pay!" So she angrily stage-whispers for the rest of the show instead. XD
Can handle a lot of stress, but when she reaches her threshold, she gets snappy. This is about the time Sherman takes Jason out to do stuff for the next few days.
Sounds like Gollum when she snores. Dipper and Mabel can't help but laugh at both of them when they sleep over.
Becomes an absolute baby when she's sick.
Despite her areas of the house (side of their room and her office) being messy 80% of the time, GOD FORBID Sherman leave some clothes on the floor of the bedroom. He'll get an earfull. To which he points out her mess. XD
They are both in a pissing contest with their neighbors over the Christmas lights. The Pines win because of Linda's engineering abilities, but whenever a neighbor gets a new decoration, Sherman and Linda have to add like 5. XD

The night we met
Pairings - Abby Anderson X Fem! Reader
Tw- heavy gut wrenching angst
An: I actually cried while writing this bro 😭
Tumblr media
You had known Abby since you both were 16. After going on a patrol as a way to show your loyalty to Issac even though you weren’t much of a solider.
You had managed to find a group of three kids your age, you soon came to find out was Abby Owen and Mel. On the way back to the base you learned Abby and Owen were together, you had realized early on you really only liked women. And you could of sworn Abby was staring at you how she should of with owen.
After some months Abby cleared the floor in the solider training. You were shocked but didn’t complain as you got to drop out of the route and focused more on a different area like Mel. You were the first person to find out about Abby’s break up and you were the first to reassure her in her decision.
A couple years passed since then, you had managed one night some months after you and Abby turned 19, confessing your longtime crush on the girl in which she admitted she liked you since the first time you met. After a passionate night you two became official.
Everyone swore you two were soulmates. Rare arguments and the constant love and affection you two showed was perfect. Always in Abby’s arms- that was home to you.
You had managed to convince Abby to move into an apartment with you, the topic of marriage had even circled in the air.
In love.. that’s what you two were and nothing could change that. Abby had all of you and you had all of her and it would be like that forever.
Laying in bed together you were curled up to Abby, both of you nude from having an intimate night.
“Babe” you whispered and kissed her collarbone. “Hmm?” Was the response you got.
Shifting around you got on-top of Abby and looked down at her beautiful face. “Let’s get married.. me and you” Abby’s eyes widened and she grabbed your hips rubbing them softly.
“Are You Sure..” she whispered.
“More than anything” You bent down and kissed her. Abby smiled wide- she pulled you off of her and moved to be over you. She started to sensually kissing you again. “You’d be stupid to think I would say no… now then y/n Anderson you want to go for another round” she grinned and you laughed resting your foreheads against each-other.
Abby had been assigned a difficult assignment and stupidly you begged to go not wanting to be away from your new wife.
Sitting in the bed of the truck you two happily held eachother ignoring the teasing comments coming from the others.
After reaching a stopping point for the night and setting up in an abandoned school Abby dragged you to the roof to see the stars.
“That one is the Big Dipper” you whispered and pointed at the beautiful sky. Abby’s hands were all over you trying to show you how much she loved you.
“Oh yeah” Abby asked and kissed you neck. “And what about that one” she pointed.
“Hmm.. i believe that’s Jupiter” a satisfied sigh left your mouth and you laughed as Abby kissed your cheek.
“Shit.. my wife is so smart” she grinned and groaned dramatically. “I’ll never get tried or saying my wife”
You looked back at her. “Good I’d hate for you to get bored” you teased and kissed her. “I love you”
“I love you to mrs. Anderson”
That’s another thing Abby loved to call you. She would never get over you offically having her last name.
The following day the group arrived at the designated location.
Abby of-course partnered up with you- leading you into the nature infested city. You two held hands while moving around searching for whatever it was Issac wanted.
You just had to beg Abby to let you go into that bookstore however.
“Common Just five more minutes” You laughed as Abby complained about the moldy store.
“Baby Theres hundreds of books at the base everthing here is probably ruined, if we leave now I’ll let you take some books from my collection” she bargained but you just shook your head and bent down to open a box. After finding nothing you opened a metal door in the back.
It was almost split second before Abby realized a clicker had pinned you to the ground. She immediately shot it and helped throw the corpse off of you. Standing up you panted anxiously. “Baby Baby hey look at me” Abby grabbed your face and made you look at her, the echo and anxiety of the bullet shot to the former scene passed. “There are more coming I can hear them we need to go now”
She dragged your arm towards the back door of the shop to leave through the entrance but you stopped a few steps before the door.
“Y/n” she turned around and saw your horrified face.. “common we need t—“
“Abigail” you spoke in a tone Abby didn’t like. “I love you ok..”
Abby looked at you confused “babe what are y-“
You continued to innerupted her “your gonna leave and your gonna continue to live life Abby”
“Y/n talk to me what’s..” that’s when Abby saw it.. a bleeding bite mark in your neck. She knew it was only a matter of minutes before you turned. “No no no no” she panicked “your ok you hear me!” She grabbed your shoulders and tried to hide her tears.
“Abby—“
“No! You gonna be fine ok I bet the bite didn’t even-“
“Abby!” You screamed finally grabbing her attention, the noise of approaching infected grew louder. You started to cry and kissed her before desperately holding her face. “Go.. Please”
Abby refused however, “I’m not leaving you I’d rather kill myself than leave you” she held onto you but you pushed her back. “Don’t say that” you begged.
“Abby your gonna be fine” you cried. “Your gonna find love and you’ll move on trust me” you tried to comfort her but she just shook her head crying. The infected banging on the nearby door.
You kissed Abby one last time before shoving her out the door and locking it. Abby stumbled back and realized the pistol at her side was gone. She started to slam on the door.
“Y/n open the fucking door!” She screamed trying to break the door open. “Goddamnit don’t do it! Open the door right n—“
BANG
..
Abby finally got the door open and saw your body just laying there.. she looked down choking back her vomit and tears. Dropping to her knees she held your face angrily crying, she rested her forehead to yours and sobbed not wanting to leave you praying this was some sick nightmare or prank.
The infected almost had the door open. In a final attempt Abby grabbed wedding ring, necklace, the lucky hair tie you wore and her pistol. She took one last look at you before leaving the book shop.
——
She had eventually came back, refusing to leave your body.
Manny held back some tears as he say Abby carry out your now mutilated body from the infection and the infected eating you.. he barley recognize you and Abby fought back the urge to breakdown.
No one said anything.. no one dared to even speak or look to Abby. She just held your body while silently crying.
There was a funeral, your final resting place was near the shore of your favorite lake.. not many knew of this place but Abby and you.
Your tomb stone just read
Here lies Y/n Anderson
A loving wife
Friend
Daughter and lover
Passed away at the age of 20
May she Rest in Peace
——
Abby sat in the empty apartment. One that once had happy laughter and the sound of love echoing through it. She sat on the floor studying your wedding ring sighing as she remembered the dumb memory of how you had made her wait an extra hour inside the jewelry store in hopes of finding a matching ring to yours. Now she wished she hadn’t had all those stupid arguments. Now Abby wished she gave you everything you asked for.
She started to cry once again remembering how you had asked her about adopting a baby from the nursery that had unwanted children and starting a family. At first she was reluctant but now she had wished she said yes.
She tried to move on. Moving back in with manny, going on more and more assignments, focusing more time in the gym, wearing your ring necklace and hair tie but nothing helped
Nothing else matter. She had lost the one person who actually knew her.. she had all and then most of you Some and now none of you..
That was it.. and that was how it would be

BALLER‼️‼️

Lo and behold, a Gravity Falls AU I came up with two days ago at school instead of paying attention to class because my attention span is shit.
Tumblr media
Evil Little Shooting Star AU
In an interview Alex Hirsch had said that Mabel and Bill are very similar in character, which is why Bill had taken a liking to her. The difference between them is that Mabel is a better person. So I thought... What if Mabel wasn't the better person, just for once?
This AU takes place at the end of "Dipper and Mabel vs. the Future", after Mabel ran away, Bill approaches her as his normal self and not in Blendin Blandin's body, appearing honest. He tells her about how he knows she feels all alone, how he knows the feeling, and basically many manipulative stuff. He makes a deal with her, promising Mabel to never be separated from Dipper again, and offering her a world where her parents aren't getting a divorce, a world where she'll stick with her brother no matter what and a position in the Henchmaniacs (because he really likes her chaotic personality), in exchange for the rift. And Mabel, feeling desperate and alone, agrees.
In this AU which I have decided to call "evil little shooting star au" or "elssau", Bill gives Mabel some powers. The Fantasy Bubble still exists but Mabel can go in and out of it whenever she wants to because she feels guilty seeing the affects of Weirdmageddon in Gravity Falls. In the Fantasy Bubble Mabel's powers are the strongest there. In this AU, Bill has erased and altered some of Mabel's memories so that she thinks that her family is looking down at her due to her silliness and that Ford is like a villain in her head who only wants to take Dipper away from her. She's sorta like a pet for Bill (a cat more particularly), like Ford. Here Bill is still trying to get the equation out of Ford and Dipper, Wendy and Soos still go to rescue Mabel, not knowing she's actually not a prisoner (she is but she doesn't know it).
Alsoooo~ Since this is gonna be an alternate universe, and the show is the only universe where both Dipper and Mabel go home... Heh... Let's just say I've come up with a couple of stuff.😈
Here are some details for my Evil!Mabel design.
