I just keep thinking about the way ford purposely drove a wedge in dipper and mabel's friendship because he projected his and stan's issues onto them
#i think part of it was also that ford was so so so desperate for any kind of human interaction (after having been deprived of it for 30#years) and praise (after seldom recieving it his entire life) the he just instantly latched on to dipper as someone who Wont Leave#yes it was incredibly stupid and short-sighted and selfish for ford to do that#asking 'isnt it suffocating?' in regards to helping mabel? Objection: leading question!#i think some part of ford wanted to help dipper wanted to give him the opportunities he never had but he was so caught up in his own issues#that it had to become a 'me or her' situation.#honestly i understand why ford is the way he is. his trust issues are just such a big problem in his life. its recurring#its one of the First Things we learn about him. ep one we dont know who he is but he believes you should 'trust no one'#and dipper pushes back against 'trust no one' because those are just words#but when theres an opportunity tied in? hes an anxious 12 year old who wants to be understood. what did you expect?#🌲🌠#imagine that imagine taking your impressionable 12yo greatnephew and#being like 'do you want your twin to ruin your life like mine did or do you wanna leave behind your entire life to be my apprentice?' augh
