As Kids? Yea actually i think the whole cheersquad would hold him down and do his face up once they get a peep at his pretty boy eyelashes. and they'd unlock something in his brain.
As adults, doubtful. He becomes the king of makeup. You think he's that pretty naturally? Well, yes, but the man is wearing more makeup than Miss Piggy on free sample day at Sephora. His eyeshadow game is so strong caros never even seen those colors before. The scars on his eye and face didnt fade, hes just the king of concealer. And his boss at the cafe, Maddie, taught him the wonders of glitter highlight fifteen minutes after he walked in for his first ever shift. (older art but relevant haha)
i’m gonna cry it’s raining right now and i just passed by a family where both parents were without an umbrella but their kid who couldn’t have been older than like 3-4 was proudly holding this GIANT umbrella whose diameter was as tall (if not taller) as the kid. both the parents were getting absolutely drenched but u could tell the kid was just so happy to have an “adult” task and carry the umbrella themselves and i think that sacrifice is what love is all about
Currently thinking about how much Ford tries to hide his hands a lot when he can…behind his back with this stance. Due to how often he’s been bullied for it.
And also, how Mabel is one of the ones who Ford feels happy about showing his hands to because she thought they were cool looking upon first shaking his hand, instead of him being judged for his six fingers.
[ID: Gravity Falls screenshots. The first three are of Ford with his hands crossed behind his back. The last two are of him shaking hands with Mabel, and letting her paint a turkey on his hand. He's smiling in both. End ID.]
Apparently the local university’s undergraduate entomology course sends students to catch insect specimens at the same place I like to go birdwatching, which explains why I saw three enormous frat looking dudes with tiny bug nets and overheard one emphatically say “bro BRO I told you we already have enough lepidopterans”
