I’m sorry who is Stan😭😭

He's Holly's long-term boyfriend/fiance who died at Midway, so about a year before she meets Bucky. His death is the cornerstone her grief is built on, and at times she doesn't cope with it especially well, which is off-putting to some people (this was the first, and for a few months the only, post in his tag). Woody and then later Bucky are protective of her because of it, and she develops intense attachments to them as a result. There's a lot more detail in Big Girls Don't Cry!

mara’s original projects ✶ The Fantasticals Duology

There are things seen and unseen in this world that would not be able to brave any regular explanation. Teddy Yang finds this out the hard way. After the strangest date in recorded human history, Teddy’s date seemingly disappears into nothing. In an attempt to find him, Teddy stumbles upon actual psychic Dominique Sharpe, as well as a magical world that has been hiding right below the surface of his own.

Soon after, the high wizard is found dead in his library, and Teddy is the sole suspect in the crime. Within the span of less than a week, Teddy goes from not knowing about magic at all, to running from the magical law and trying to solve the murder he’s being framed for.

Even worse, he still hasn’t found his missing date.

CUPHEAD CROSSOVER!

@year2000electronics ask and ye shall receive

Ramblings under the cut!

The general idea is that the AU follows a similar story structure to Cuphead, but the lore is similar to Gravity Falls. There's just one key difference: everyone can see and interact with Bill. He just can't really interact with our world. Yet.

Bill is a projection, brought forth by Gideon Gleeful. He would allow Bill free presence, and in return, Bill basically made him famous, AND his Earthen right-hand. So he takes the place of King Dice.

From there, the history is almost the same as GF. Ford came here to investigate anomalies, found Gravity Falls, met Bill, and started building a portal. The possession came with a different cost this time, though; Ford's soul. Bill promised he'd be in good hands and that it's just kinda part of the gig, but because of this, Bill's ability to possess him never left.

Once Ford got the metal plate installed, Bill was limited, sure, but he still had control of the soul contract, meaning he could basically just. Force Ford to do shit. The main limiting factor here is that he has to know where Ford is and has to be able to see him. If he can't see him, he can't control him. Once Ford is in the multiverse, this is the main reason Bill can't get him. He doesn't know where Ford is.

The main story is just everyone in Gravity Falls making really really stupid mistakes. The only person who has not fallen for Bill's games is Stan, who- like Elder Kettle- tried to warn the twins about making bad deals, but ultimately this fell through when they got curious and visited Gideon's tent, where Bill was also observing.

In my interpretation of this AU, Pacifica takes the place of Ms Chalice. She's hurt and alone, and her dad made a deal with Cipher that resulted in. this. I like to think it was a Monkey's Paw type scenario, but my brain is an egg so I'll figure that one out later. Basically Pacifica wants her body back (ghost rules the same as the DLC), so she decides to help Dipper and Mabel under the belief that they can assist her once Bill is defeated.

However, this falls through. However the deal worked, it persists, and Pacifica starts to wonder if she'll always be a ghost. But that's where Ford comes in.

Ford, taking the place of Saltbaker (kinda? kinda.), offers to try and help her restore her physical form. Call in the twins and let's be off let's go. He says he needs to build a machine that could potentially reverse the effects permanently, and he needs parts. So that's what the twins are doing. The cookie is replaced with an astro-physical restorative remote, but a really, really weak one, and it requires a host to work, keeping the idea that one of them will always be a ghost until the machine is done.

The only problem with this plan is that Ford's contract with Bill is not up, and was not destroyed by Dipper and Mabel, and Bill can see him now. So. In short, that ain't Ford.

The parts the kids were gathering were for the portal.

Once they figure that out, we get a Baking the Wondertart equivalent, Bill is defeated, and in doing so, Ford is freed of the contract as well, meaning Bill can't mess with him anymore.

Not sure if Bill lives all the way to the end of this story, but there is a good chance unless I figure out how to kill him, seeing as Weirdmageddon probably doesn't happen here.

Gotta think on it more, but that's the basic idea. First draft. All of this is subject to change hdfsdfjh

WHY ISNT ANYONE TLAKIGJ ABOUT THIS IM GOING INSANE?

LOOK. LOOK AT IT.

"No particular reason" meaning: "If I don't see my son from a distance and cry in silence because I can't be his dad I might die, actually".

"He was a clean-cut, handsome, light-complexioned man—not large, but well built. [...] No matter how filthy and dirty everyone was on the battlefield, Hillbilly's face always had a clean, fresh appearance. He was physically tough and hard and obviously morally strong. He sweated as much as any man but somehow seemed to stand above our foul and repulsive living conditions in the field."

Eugene Sledge, With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa

"When everybody else was sweating and filthy, Hillbilly always looked fresh scrubbed. None of us knew how he did it."

tbh without eric matthews being a bog-standard shitty cop like. nothing that happened in the course of the saw movies would have happened

if he doesn't frame amanda on drug charges then she never goes to prison, never becomes addicted, never pushes cecil to go through with the robbery that ends in jill's miscarriage

john's terminal cancer is inevitable but without gideons death he has his family and he has a reason to persevere. probably still a classist bootstrappy kind of guy, probably still resentful of those that he thinks don't appreciate their lives, probably not the leader of a small torture cult

and i don't say this to strip amanda or anyone else in the universe of responsibility for their actions, just to appreciate how this reflects the ways the carceral system can radically derail someone's life and create entire networks of suffering

here is a fic that I wrote :) it is called New Again and the premise is that 11-yo Dick and (20- or 30-something, not as impt) Bruce get transported to EARTH 3, where they meet THOMAS WAYNE JR., who tries to ��help” “them” leave and get back to their earth. But the device goes awry—Bruce is sent back home and Dick is left stranded with Thomas, who is stunned by the opportunity to have again what he lost and slowly wears Dick down into trusting him

The Dowager Queen Alicent of House Hightower, second wife of King Viserys I and mother to his sons, Aegon, Aemond, and Daeron, and his daughter Helaena, died on the same night as Lord Westerling, after confessing her sins to her septa. She had outlived all of her children and spent the last year of her life confined to her apartments, with no company but her septa, the serving girls who brought her food, and the guards outside her door. Books were given her, and needles and thread, but her guards said Alicent spent more time weeping than reading or sewing. One day she ripped all her clothing into pieces. By the end of the year she had taken to talking to herself, and had come to have a deep aversion to the color green. In her last days the Queen Dowager seemed to become more lucid. “I want to see my sons again,” she told her septa, “and Helaena, my sweet girl, oh…and King Jaehaerys. I will read to him, as I did when I was little. He used to say I had a lovely voice.” (Strangely, in her final hours Queen Alicent spoke often of the Old King, but never of her husband, King Viserys.) The Stranger came for her on a rainy night, at the hour of the wolf.

hello!! what can you tell me about your wizard story? please and thank you!

oh BOY. okay let's get into it;

it's an urban fantasy story about a large metropolitan coty where magic exists right under normal people's noses. it's been a well-kept secret for ages, until one unfortunate date night unravels everything.

so the story starts with Teddy Yang and the tinder date from hell. or, well, it doesn't start out that way. it's a pretty good date, actually. a really good date. until the guy, Vincent, ghosts before they can even get breakfast. to say Teddy is disappointed by this is an understatement, so he goes to try and find Vincent. while doing this, he ends up at the psychic shop his date said he worked at. the shop is, weirdly enough, run by a girl not much older than Teddy himself, Dominique Sharpe. she tells Teddy that she hasn't seen Vincent in ages, and gives him a free reading for his troubles.

it all goes to shit from there on, kind of.

Teddy discovers that magic is, in fact, very real, and has always existed right under his nose. this is great news, at first, and once Teddy becomes acquainted with Dom's friends Indigo, Ethan, Astra, and Curtis, he starts to think things are really looking up for him again. which is exactly the moment that the high wizard of the city is murdered and Teddy is named as the prime suspect for his death.

He's being framed, of course, but that doesn't doesn't the predicament a lot better.

so, characters;

Teddy Yang — works at a bookstore. that's it. he's just some guy. the unluckiest guy ever, but still. his fc is andré dae kim.

Dominique 'Dom' Sharpe — psychic, and owner of the only real psychic shop in the city. her fc is odessa a'zion.

Indigo 'Indie' Love — wizarding student under the high wizard and smarter than all other characters combined. her fc is lovie simone.

Stanley Alistair — the very anxious assistant of the high wizard who is, at all times, one dried-up pen away from a reality-tearing panic attack. his fc is adam dimarco.

Astra Wicker — a clumsy necromancer who accidentally makes the high wizard even more dead then he was to begin with. her fc is amber midthunder.

Curtis Sage — the elusive housemate of Teddy who he quite literally has never seen before the start of the story. his fc is ashton sanders.

Vincent Ashford — an ambitious magic user who is, all things considered, not the greatest guy. and not just because he bailed on Teddy post-hookup. his fc is thomas doherty.

the high wizard — he's old and he's dead. there's not much more to it. his fc is michael sheen.

I'm still working out a lot of details, but this is most of what I have so far! I'm mainly concerning myself with thinking up a magic system right now and naming everything, but I really can't wait to make a post for the story once I figure everything out.
