I'm going to have Dot romance Astarion because i can, but also in isekai tradition she accidentally makes everyone fall for her.

Okay more specifically all the guys because the women know what the word platonic means. Is this me joking about the game being buggy here and there? yes. Is it also a comment on cultural differences sending a mixed message? also yes.

Gale gets his hair braided so it stays out of his face while he fights and cooks, doesn't know how to emotionally process how nice it feels to have someone play with his hair and pat his head and say he's good to go.

Wyll finds himself suddenly the one explaining what manners are, even after clarifying he's been a wandering hero for like 10 years. He's also the one teaching her how to use rapiers, and feeling very odd about all the touching to correct her stance and posture. Not so much because he can't separate the context, he's just not used to the excited hugs after he tells her she's doing well or the little taps she gives him when they're just in camp and he's slouching. "Posture, Wyll!" before snickering and asking how he's doing.

Astarion meanwhile is just entirely convinced she's going to be the easiest mark he's ever gone after that's sober. Because, by her own admission, she was a very lonely woman with no time for companionship outside occasionally meeting with friends. No real time for fun or release, as far as she tells it. So it feels like he's having an easy time seducing her... but she keeps like. Asking if he's doing ok. Offering him hats they find and cloaks, on the off chance the sun is TOO much for him. He'd never admit that it sometimes IS, but he deals with it because he missed it so much. She asks after his food preferences, if he can even have normal food, and then after his wine preferences when he lets slip that alcohol is the only thing that vaguely tastes like anything anymore aside blood. She finds out he embroidered his clothing and keeps asking him how he learned [he doesn't remember], if he'd like her to keep an eye out for thread, if he'd like her to get him some needles so he could be ready if they found some. If he'd like some of the garments they loot enough to unravel them into something he could use-- he doesn't point out that most of them are too coarse a thread or generally worn enough that the thread will snap. He's not sure why he doesn't point it out, after a bit. Like, she'll flirt with him when he flirts with her, and seems not to hold the whole first meeting against him, but she's just... nice. Cheery. Upbeat to the point of making his teeth grind. Until she's not. Until they're all limping through making camp so they can all lick their wounds and she nearly snarls at him for taking her spot. Or offers up some cutting remark after a goblin mouthed off, shortly before its head left its shoulders.

Because like, Dot is very customer service habit having. Very used to the whole culture of "yeah, we're a team!! go team!! Efficiency!" of a workplace. She's very prone to pulling up the smiley happy face most the time, and then going absolutely fucking hog wild. Because she doesn't HAVE to do that anymore-- she just knows she's the leader and best she has for template on that is team meetings where there were donuts and coffee she had to bring in.

The stark difference intrigues Astarion, i feel. If only because he can tease her about it and she just pouts at him.

i'm pondering

If Bill's dad is red, I wonder if Bill is reminded of him when he gets angry...

This cotl concept horse is probably the reason why Narinder was banned from experimenting with life and put in jail time. I love it so much

The lamb: what IS THAT.

Narinder: Fucked up thing I invented once

The lamb: what do you mean invented

Narinder, a god not just in name but the lamb doesnt know that yet: Spare time project

The lamb: ...does it have teeth?

Narinder: Sometimes

[intistone]

this killed my artblock okay

well.

the hyperfixation created something something au, so....yeah.

AU where the whole Book of Bill and the backstory doesn't change at all, but instead of just putting bill into space therapy, the AXOLOTL also creates...uh.

This guy.

Not a twin, not a second chance, not a reincarnation.

This Bill, or "Nick" (chosen by Mabel because he's got a nicked side from le punch) is more of a "what couldve been" alternate created for the purpose of being a test or an example for the real bill. Everything Bill was SUPPOSED to develop personality wise before the collapse of his dimension...but with his memories sill intact from that moment. It's not a restart and memory loss thing, but more of a coping and learning to heal, starring the Pines family losing their minds over what seems like o be a lookalike of the evil dorito man.

Again....his only purpose was to show the real Bill what could have been, if his coping methods weren't as....unhinged and destructive. So he wasn't intentionally supposed to be a long-term friend or anything to the town of Gravity Falls.

....but things change.

Things change.

some more info stuff under the cut about this au :D

Nick is nervous, anxious, uses humor to cope, and a bit mischevious (bit of the og Bill there), but takes out his trauma/guilt on art and creating instead of destructive tendencies. He frequently likes to throw up murals and run off.

He has multiple self-care issues. Just in general because of his memories and because of his fractured physical state.

He had to do a LOT of work to gain the Pine's trust. Obviously. but he would definitely get along with Mable and, though it would take a lot more time, Dipper. Because....Dipper. The Book of Bill really showcased how pissed Dipper was with Bill's actions.

The Pines don't like to call him Bill because...bad association with that name. Hence the name Nick, because they kinda think its not REALLY bill. just a less fucked up version

His powers are limited and fractured due to being an altered form. He can't levitate, warp reality, or be considered immortal. however, he still IS Bill Cipher....so all that may be buried in there somewhere.

Bro has a LOT of stuff to work through and unpack.

Its going to be all good until Dot gets a chocolate craving and mentions it around Gale "Waterdeep has Everything" Dekarios.

Because he'll start waxing poetic about a tart he had or a delightful cake... and she'll just.

"Gale that sounds great, but all I want to do is curl up and pour syrup and whipped cream directly into my mouth."

"That... is also an option. One I haven't tried, admittedly, but an option." A pause. "So do you just tip the bowls or--"

"Chocolate syrup comes in a bottle you squeeze. Think a waterskin of chocolate."

"Huh. Alright."

"And the whipped cream comes in a can." A blink as she processed his look of confusion. "Think flask that's under a lot of pressure so when you press on the top, the cream foams out."

"Fascinating... and you'd just..."

"Just pour both in, yup."

"Why?"

"You look me in the eyes and say that it doesnt sound like a decadent time. Just a nice treat."

"Well yes, but doesn't it go bad? What with Earths lack of magic to keep things cool."

"We have this magical thing called science, you know. Making a box cold we figured out."

"Fair enough." A hum. "I just can't imagine pure chocolate tasting good."

"Oh no, no, chocolate syrup is mostly just sugar and coloring. It's just cheap. If you magically summoned me a cake I'd take that any day."

"I see."

"Wait. Did you think I was saying I wanted to just sit down and house whole bowls of chocolate and cream? Because that's certainly an image."

"I don't know what people on Earth do for fun!"

"Nope we all sit around pouring sweets down our faces. Just getting real sloppy with it."

"Now that is a wildly different mental image--"

"And a thing that some people actually did."

"Pardon?"

"We have strayed from me wanting chocolate."

"No, no, let's stay in this delightful new world you've just described." Astarion pipes up, having watched quietly up to this point. "Do tell me where these people get enough chocolate to do that."

A sigh.

"Its mostly people watching women get lathered in syrup and wrestling in their small clothes." A grimace. "I just always get distracted thinking about the clean up."

"Go on."

"Not like that, christ--"

"You opened the door! I just peered through!"

Gale, meanwhile looked like he'd swallowed a frog. He cleared his throat awkwardly.

"Thats.. something to imagine."

"I cannot believe this is where we landed."

"Less landed and more strolled in a straight line, darling, but Do pretend you didnt raise this specter."

"I just wanted a mouth full of sugar and here we are."

"A mouthful you say--"

"Astarion I remind you I have eldritch blast on tap, just whenever."

"You think I'm funny, don't lie."

"Fine but you're going to kill Gale."

"I am... perfectly fine."

Karlach trotted further ahead and waved her hands.

"Actually, can we get back to the women wrestling in pools of chocolate and cream? Because--"

"You're all horrible."

"--whats the win condition. Does the loser have to clean off the winner--"

"We are not discussing this while goblin hunting."

"Soldier, you cant tell me theres horny wrestling and NOT clarify--"

"I didnt SAY horny--"

"Implied it!"

"Eldritch blast on all of you."

BACK WITH THE THERAPRISM COMICS. I was self indulgent this time and put my gravity falls oc lore in it I HOPE THATS OKAY-

If u don't wanna hear about him, just PRETEND THE LAST SLIDE ISN'T THERE. I LOVE BEING CRINGE!!!

haha Jack Cynosure Bill Cipher scar symbolism. A scar for a scar.

Been so busy but finally have a schedule down so expect more Bill art >:))

Also, just a reminder, his scar is TV-STATIC!!, which probably reminds him of Euclydia and his family in general, though either way, he's crying about it!! WOO

[scumvillainess]

au where shen qingqiu makes the mistake of telling ning yingying that he used to be engaged prior to joining cqms, and like all things related to shen qingqiu everyone in the sect ends up hearing about it.

the problem is that they have all unanimously come to the conclusion that the person that shen qingqiu was engaged to is none other than the sect leader of cqms himself, yue qingyuan.

Text under cut

Redson: Ms. Long, I demand that you grant me back the samadhi fire.

Mei: Is that all you ever think about?! Mk is hurt, and the first thing you talk to me about is that stupid fire?

Mei: Time and time again, I watched as Mk tried to vouch for you. Even after we found out YOU started this mess.

Mei: And all you ever talk to me about, is the weapon that almost took his life?!

Mei: I hope you’re happy making your parents proud hurting the people who care about you the most.
