More on the Cipher twins, this time with some angst 👍🏻

Stan knows Dipper and Mabel's parents dumped them on him for an indefinite time with the possibility of not taking them back, he hasn't told the twins yet.

Ford spent those years in the portal thinking of what may have happened to his children. From Stan giving them up to him missing out on so much of their life.

Ford does not immediately clock that Dipper and Mabel are his kids, mostly because he expects them to be in their thirties. When Stan tells him his side of the story he realises that they're his. Cue in a bit of a crisis. He's happy to see them and that he gets to still be part of their childhood, but on the other side he realises he's a 60 year old father with 12 y/o kids and they won't get much time with him. He also doesn't really know how to be a father. It ends up with him and Stan co-parenting the twins as best they can.

The twins can't really bring themselves to call Ford "dad" so they stick with Uncle Ford, while Stan stays Grunkle Stan since they've gotten used to it.

Dipper writes his own journal, inspired by journal number 3. His journal has a small 6 fingered handprint with a pine tree on it. He documents all he finds + updates knowledge from journal 3, referencing it as if he was citing a source for a thesis. He's very dedicated to writing a thorough guide. (Tho it's also his own personal diary.) Mabel also writes in it occasionally. Her entries are usually less serious unless it comes to machinery, which is when she goes absolutely ham. They're a great scientific team, kind of like Ford and Fiddleford. They also have taken to write in code on certain pages, which is what they rather keep private between eachother, like little encrypted messages between eachother. They share this diary often and dipper is much less possessive of it compared to journal number 3. He considers it a joint project with Mabel and trusts her insight on things which he's not as much of an expert on. They leave messages to eachother in the diary.

Gideon ended up accidentally getting his hands on Dipper's Journal instead of Journal number 3, leading him to think he got played though he ends up realising (finally) that Dipper and Mabel have the same 6 fingered hans as the author, leading him to deduce they're related to the Author and therefore believing that they must have the other Journal, which is why he goes after the shack, even more pissed at the twins.

The crush thing with Mabel ends much quicker the moment Mabel expresses to Dipper how uncomfortable she is. Dipper is not messing around when it comes to his sister and he's the one who decides to go speak with Gideon. He still ends up getting saved by Mabel. They end up keeping the amulet as means of defence and also to study it further. Mabel made a sort of watch for Dipper for him to store it in. (She's more than capable of defending herself with her often dangerous inventions.)

Speaking of Mabel's inventions, after the encounter with the gnomes she made weapons to defend herself. She has a glitter gun to blind her enemies, which can also turn into a powerful leaf blower once she's out of ammo. She also has her grappling gun, which she uses also as a stunning weapon. She's also made cat claws gloves for herself to scratch her enemies.

Stan has taught both kids how to defend themselves. Mabel seemed to be the one who's taken more after his teachings, and she uses these skills to protect Dipper, who's much less physically active.

Dipper and Mabel are much closer in this au. They find comfort with eachother's company, knowing that there's at least one other person in this world who understands them. Stan and Ford's relationship fills them with dread, as they do not want to end up like that. The older twins' example does nothing but strengthen their relationship.

Dipper favours Stan's cunning and propensity to lie, respects it even. While Mabel prefers Ford's brutal honesty. Though Dipper has an unhealthy amount of paranoia, which he takes after both of the older twins. This makes Mabel more protective of her brother.

Stan gifted Mabel a tool belt, which she bedazzled and personalised immediately. She takes it everywhere she goes.

Mabel often helps Soos with handyman duties while Dipper stays at the registry with Wendy, he's very meticulous with money. (Stan is very proud of them but won't admit it.)

Dipper has an "adventure backpack." It holds Journal 3 and his own Journal as well as all of Mabel's weapons. He made it after becoming Bipper and unlocking part of Bill's powers, the backpack is a pocket into their dreamscape, from which they can pull out what they want.

Speaking of Bipper, it was hard to separate Bill and Dipper, as the twins were originally meant to be a vessel for Bill.

Bipper had to be rendered unconscious, and Mabel had to go into their shared dreamscape to wrench them apart from the inside, risking of also getting "infected" with Bill in the process. It was their closest call yet.

After this episode their dreamscape has changed, incorporating elements belonging to Bill from his stay there. To cheer Dipper up from the quite traumatic event, Mabel suggested studying these part of their dreamscape to possibly discover a new weakness of Bill's

In this AU Dipper is much more involved with Grenda and Candy, as he's also part of their "freaks club". They teach him how to do makeup to cover his birthmark. But it ends up going the opposite way, with the girls drawing their favourite constellations on themselves to match Dipper.

Dipper is super protective of them, he's the one that hates Pacifica the most, despite the girls being her victims most of the time. He agrees to help her only for the girls. Boy can he hold a grudge.

I personally like Dipcifica so I'm considering of adding development to their relationship. Kinda like in the show.

Bill: "Oh you're doing enemies to lovers? Your father and I did lovers to enemies."

Dipper: "what?"

Bill: "what."

Sorry I write a lot 😅

Stealing the famous au version of Bill, chucking him into my machine and spitting out my fun pseudo twins from another reality agenda

Basically uhhh Will is more conceptually his opposite (order and chaos, truth and lies, manic and depressive, anger issues and repressed anger... Yay!)

Will is actively atoning for his wrong doing (detsroying his version of Euclydia) and learns about Bill and this version of him scares him because it reminds him of the monster he is (and the even worse monster he could be) that Bill brings out Will's own anger at himself onto Bill

Which is why he's been on a witch hunt to kill bill and then his own self but uh. Doesn't happen as he starts to reflect and see Bill as a brother (oopsies)

(I'm calling this the cipher twins au until uhhh I get a better name cause they aren't twins biologically... You've heard of brother from another mother get ready for....Twin from another reality...?)

Cipher Twins AU

Basically some bits of Bill didn’t reattach and morphed into his eldritch horror children.

Explain Yourselves AU:

Spent all of class coming up with this instead of taking notes. Enjoy

Edit: Part 2 in the notes!

(Transcribed under the cut)

gravity falls human bill AU where bill comes back as a human except instead of dropping in at the mystery shack, he appears outside of mabel and dipper’s house in piedmont

dipper and mabel have So Much explaining to do

their parents want to call the cops but mabel and dipper are like NO. DONT.

we canNOT let anyone know he’s here and alive. actually we might have to kill him.

parents, hearing their thirteen year olds casually discuss murder: WHAT

theyre like “we have to call the grunkles” and the parents are ?? plural? grunkleS?

then they have to back up nd explain ford

and all of that

this whole time bill is tied to a kitchen chair all gagged and blindfolded and yelling in annoyance

mabel and dipper are ignoring him and the parents are Very Much Not Ignoring Him

they call the grunkles and explain the situation and the parents hear a twin WHAT followed by a lot of yelling and swearing and crashing and then stan says “okay we’ll be there by tomorrow love you kids STAY SAFE BYE”

dipper: wait. if they’re getting here tomorrow then… what do we do with Bill in the meantime?

mabel, behind him holding a frying pan: i have an idea

parents: NO

they ungag him and it’s like. dipper and mabel armed with grappling hook + baseball bat plus their parents standing behind them trying to figure out if a) their kids are having a mental break and b) if they just kidnapped some random dude

these concerns are quickly allayed when bill starts threatening to kill everyone really loudly and graphically

then suddenly dipper is like. wait. if you could kill us by ripping our skin off our bones limb by limb…. why haven’t you don’t that already

bill:

Dipper:

bill:

dipper: ARE YOU POWERLESS

bill: nO-

mabel gets him with the frying pan

[noodles-and-tea]

He shakes his hand and when Bill comes to collect Stanley pulls off the fake hand from the dollar store he used

You gotta work on your people skills there, Bill.

Demon Twins :)

'Pinetree' and 'Shooting-star' are my versions of Dipper and Mabel from my Twin Dimensional au!

If anyone's interested in it here are the basics:

The beginning takes place a little after the portal is completed, and Bill and Ford's argument (breakup).

The twins were created after the atom of Bills Dimension was split in half. I am unsure exactly how this happens yet, but Ford and the Axolotl have a direct part in it.

Now that Bill is no longer the only Euclidean, and he's a dad- things change. The portal is no longer a priority, the twins are.

How will this affect the rest of the timeline? Not sure! But I'm excited to figure it out. Be on the look out for more stuff about my au if you're interested!

Ps. Bill can see out of the eye on Dippers hat, and hear through Mabel's earrings :)

[mumatsi]

You all wanted it sooo.

[nerdnameddinkey]

here’s your sexyman tumblr! TAKE HIM

people on twitter REALLY LIKED him btw… 🫣

[fangirlingpuggle]

Dumb gravity falls AU/fic prompt where Ford sees the twins when they're in the past and is watching these 2 who look a hell of a lot like him but clearly have some powers since they just disappear again and he's thinking ... oh my fucking god Bill made us kids.

This being after the break-up and him thinking that this is Bills attempt of having a baby to save a failing relationship.

Bill is very confused by what Sixer is talking about but he's talking to him. Ford is trying to find out where his kids are because fuck Cipher should not be a parent. While in the other world he was also trying to find about inter dimensional custody agreements.

Bill seeing the twins realizing the time travel and like ohhhh I can use this... this is going to be hilarious.

(Also he thinks the having kids (The twins) thing might actually save the marriage)

[heshmmity]

my crazy ass interpretation of Mr Bill Pines AU and a bunch of sketches yay

more under the cut idk :Р

btw you guys went CRAZY about last post damn.... thank yall for your support hehe !!!

[ttlurking]

When I want to read fics of my au but I'm the creator of the au and so I have to write the fics 😔👍🏻

[sarcki]

No because actually @endermagpie

I have an AU in my head where bills original plan was to do the same thing he does in the show but he genuinely falls in love with Stanford. At first he tries to convince him that taking over the world together would be great but Ford doesn’t like it (of course) and bills like “…fineseeee 🙄” and just … doesn’t, because bae said no.

Ford still has a hard time trusting him after he finds out but he eventually learns Bill is being for real about the whole giving up his plans to take over the world thing. (Somewhere along here bill tells ford his real backstory) And ford decides to finish building the portal so Bill can have a new home and they can start a real relationship together.

Bill learning to be a be a better person decides that Stanford should try and reconnect with his twin, (“I lost my family trying to do something great. I can’t see it happened to you too”)

when the young mystery twins are born Bill immediately falls in love with the little gremlins (he sings the lullaby his mother used to sing to him to them)

Bill says once everyone he loves in this dimension dies he’s going to take over the world, (he says it to Cope with the thought of ford dying) but it never happens because even though ford and the twins did eventually die the pines family keeps living on And Bill can no longer find it in himself to destroy something that once was “his” (fords)

Although Bill no longer closely interacts with the Pines after so many generations, everyone in the family knows that there is a Guardian watching over them ⭐️

I just love Eldridge horror that can destroy the world x random mortal that makes them not want to ❤️

✨FAME✨

Bring this au back immediately, we have not gathered its full potential

[hoodiecatdoodles]

Some more Screenshot edits! This time with Billy C. Gleeful!

I mainly added him cuz Gideon and Mabel's relationship definitely is a counterpart of Ford and Bill's relationship almost one to one. From Mabel at first liking them to the unhealthy obsession boiling up within Gideon that lasts a long time

[inquirewithbillcipher]

(Sets Bill up with the Swooning Over Stan’s game) Ok, Bill, which one are you dating?

What a silly question!

As if either of those numbskulls even liked me? You’re a real hoot Anon!

- Bill 👁️

[noodles-and-tea]

Little Stan getting manipulated by Bill has excellent angst potential but consider.

Stanley just, keeps tricking Bill. Because Bill would definitely massively underestimate Stanley and how far he’ll go to protect Ford (like in the actual show). We also know Stanley has the street smarts between the twins and could absolutely tell Bill is full of it.

And because Bill would absolutely loose his mind if he kept getting foiled by a snot nosed eight year old that isn’t even supposed to be here

I like to think that he doesn’t even try that hard he just does not even care about bill
