#ford protection squad

I saw someone say that Ford did not stand up for Stan in the Principal’s office, because he knew and believed it was true what the Principal said about his brother. Yeah, no, I am pretty sure that Ford didn't believed that Stan was a clown that would only scrape the barnacles off of a saltwater taffy store on the dock if he had the lucky of graduate high school. This is more something Filbrick would think about Stan. Ford just did not stand up for Stan in the Principal’s office because Filbrick was there and because he was never really good at stand up for himself, let alone for another person. And not because he "knew" that what the Principal said was true.

...what? People are actually saying that? If you look at Ford's expression in that scene, it's obvious he doesn't agree with that!

And exactly. Ford wasn't going to push back when Filbrick was there, regardless of what he really thought. And people tend to forget how difficult it is to stand up to people, especially when you've never been able to do so for yourself. If you've never been able to do that much, it's gonna be that much harder and then some to do that for others.

Once again, this fandom proves they have no media literacy.

How do the Mystery Twins meet the Owl House gang? I wanna know their opinions on the entire cast there, hell, I want to know their opinions on the Boiling Isles! I also want to hear any and all headcanons on how the Twins will interact with the Hexsquad (Luz, Amity, Willow, Gus (esp Gus!!!) and Hunter)!!! Feel free to use this post to rant about it. *GASP* How does the end of season 2 happen? Does the Hexsquad still get stuck on Earth with no portal???

IN ENGLISH

I can't say this enough! I love your questions!

How does the Season 2 finale happen? And how do the Mystery Twins meet the Owl House gang?

During the events of season two, Stan, Luz, King, and Eda prepare for Unity Day, and as Eda's last request, Stan stays with the Hex Squad to protect them.

After the events of the fight against Amity's mother, Alador joining the good guys' side, and Luz's capture, Stan takes the reins and leads everyone to a safe place to plan something quick

The rest of the events of the season finale occur the same, with the exception that Stan protects Luz's back and supports her, defends her and says that none of this is her fault, that helps her to deceive Belos and thus put a coven mark on him to weaken him

To make matters worse, the Collector is freed by King and although he stops Belos, he causes more chaos, Stan, seeing the door that could lead home, decides to do something to save his remaining family, ordering Hunter . Let him take everyone to the door while he is in charge of taking part of the investigation of Belos and the portals

Oh, right, and he also tries to get Luz to the door to save her from all the chaos, because he's a very protective foster father.

In the end, King pushes them both out the door and the portal, which leads directly to Ford's cabin, is destroyed, leaving the Hex Squad, Stan and Luz trapped in the human world.

There, the Mystery Twins and Ford meet the Hex Squad, and in the process, try to comfort a group of scared children, along with a very nervous Uncle Stan, eager to recreate the portal, thanks to the titan who was able to bring Belos' research with him...

The Gravity Falls Squad's opinions on the entire Hex Squad

Ford: he is not at all happy that Stanley has continued with his attempts to return to his dimension of origin, on the other hand, as soon as he saw the children injured and showing signs of exhaustion, he did not hesitate to give them a place to sleep, especially Stan, although we all know that there is too much to talk about between them

Stan: When he saw him for the first time after his appearance in the comic "A tale of two stans", he believed that it was Bill's trap, until he saw that it was indeed the real one, the next thing he knew, Stan was determined to reopening a portal, now to take those children home, he had to admit that that was something noble, but dangerous, he still thinks he is irresponsible and even an idiot, at least until he discovered that he has a magic staff and very interesting knowledge... .

Luz: reminds him a lot of Dipper and Mabel, she is a combination of both, since she is very intelligent with wild magic and is also strange, but she has a good heart, she cares a lot about her actions

Hunter: He is worried about his health, he notices how tense he is, he likes him, but he knows that he is very distrustful, apparently, he is more attached to Stan

Gus: He sees him as the weakest, yet he sees his maturity and his desire to learn about the human world, sometimes he reminds him of Stan, but he doesn't want to think about that.

Willow: Is it normal for her to be the strongest in the group? At first he thought she would be the smart girl, until he saw how she controls the magic of plants and thought a little more about it, he has his doubts about whether she is okay after these months.

Amity: he respects her, not only because of her determination, but also because she is very intelligent, although somewhat shy and clumsy at times, she reminds him of Dipper since she is very studious, it is also like seeing a small version of himself

Dipper was excited to meet his Uncle Stan in person, he didn't expect it to be so soon or with several extra guests, but when he heard that they were young witches, his desire to learn helped him interact with them naturally.

Stan: Dipper will never lie when he tells you that what he was most excited about was meeting Stan in person. When the door opened and he was finally able to talk to him, the first thing Stan said was that they needed to remake the portal to take the children. Home, since then, Dipper helps Stan with his work as best he can, while listening to his stories and adventures on the boiling islands.

Luz: he likes her, she looks a lot like Mabel, she is very kind, and being almost the same age, she is great in Dipper's words, he likes talking to her about Eda and King, he really likes hearing about that other one. world he comes from

Hunter: they are both similar, curious, they were interested in wild magic and palismans Hunter is one of the few people I would consider a "brother" or something like that, he likes to tell her what he has discovered in Gravity falls and what dreams of finding once they manage to open the portal

Gus: To be honest, Gus is like a little brother he always wanted, someone who is amazed by everything he tells him, someone who listens to him and asks him questions about his discoveries in the human world, someone who also wants to take him to carry out these types of investigations, practically, Hunter, Gus and Dipper are the trio of young investigators looking for mysteries to uncover

Willow: okay, you have to admire that this girl is the toughest of her group, in fact, Dipper openly admits that he had a slight crush on her, but like in all his few crushes, it hasn't come to anything, yes, admire Willow's strength and determination

Amity: Curiously, he likes her very much, since they are both considered the star students of their respective schools, although nowadays this is no longer the case, they understand the pressure of having to be perfect, get good grades and try to be better than the others. Furthermore, in fact, thanks to her, Dipper understood that he should not be like Ford, because that was damaging his friendship with Mabel, she is a good girl, she gives excellent advice

Mabel is the happiest to have her new friends living in the cabin, it's like having a sleepover all summer. What could be better than that?

Stan: she was the one who most wanted to have Stan at home, when he appeared with the Hex Squad, Mabel was the first to come up to hug Stanley, he is protective, responsible, to a certain extent, he keeps a good eye on all the children, he is playful and charismatic, he spends a lot of time with her and asks her for help with the portal

Luz: "She's my older sister! Say no more!" She wants to be like her when she grows up.

Hunter: "my dream boy..." She once said while smiling dumbly, she was one of the ones who helped Hunter the most, now she sees him as her best friend, although Willow fights for that position, since she also loves him a lot to Hunter "Oh my god, looks like I found a new couple to make!" He said while already making dating plans between Hunter and Willow

Gus: she loves him a lot, she plays with him at things like sleepovers and I teach him the interesting concepts of human dating and his way of courting, something tells her that Gus is very comfortable with her, and although he is just starting, he doesn't It bothers him, it's actually nice...

Willow: "And she's my other big sister!" He once said enthusiastically, "She's very strong! And very tough!" He loves playing sports with her, although he also likes to do her makeup and comb her hair.

Amity: He likes her, but since she is closer to Dipper, he doesn't talk to her much, although when he does, he loves to see her with Luz, he is very happy for the Lumity couple.

Gravity Falls Squad's opinions of The Boiling Islands!

Stan: A living hell... At least until you meet the right people...

Ford: A fascinating place But dangerous, it should not be possible to access that place, it would be best not to open more portals...

Dipper: I could have answers to many of the questions that have never been solved before... I could learn magic, real magic... I wish I lived there...

Mabel: I wanna be a witch! And do magic like Grunkle Stan!

Coming soon: headcanons about the Twins' interactions with the Hexsquad

EN ESPAÑOL

¡No me canso de decir esto! ¡Amo sus preguntas!

¿Cómo ocurre el final de la temporada 2? Y ¿Cómo conocen los Mystery Twins a la pandilla Owl House?

Durante los eventos de la segunda temporada, Stan, Luz, King y Eda se preparan para el día de la unidad, y como última petición de Eda, Stan se queda con el Hex Squad para protegerlos

Después suceden los eventos de la pelea contra la madre de Amity, Alador uniéndose al bando de los buenos y la captura de Luz, lo que hace que Stan tome las riendas y dirige a todos a un lugar seguro para planear algo rápido

Los demás hechos del final de temporada ocurren igual, con la excepción de que Stan protege la espalda de Luz y la respalda, la defiende y dice que nada de esto es su culpa, eso la ayuda para engañar a Belos y así ponerle una marca de aquelarre para debilitarlo

Para empeorar las cosas, el coleccionista es liberado por King y, aunque detiene a Belos, causa más caos, Stan, al ver la puerta que podría llevarlo a casa, decide hacer algo para salvar a la familia que le queda, le ordena a Hunter que lleve a todos a la puerta mientras el se encarga de llevarse parte de la investigación de Belos y los portales

Ah, claro, y también trata de llevar a Luz a la puerta para salvarla de todo el caos, porque es un padre postizo muy protector

Al final, King los empuja a ambos por la puerta y el portal, que da directamente a la cabaña de Ford, se destruye, dejando al Hex Squad, a Stan y a Luz atrapados en el mundo humano

Ahí, los gemelos misterio y Ford conocen al Hex Squad, y de paso, tratan de consolar a un grupo de niños asustados, junto a un tío Stan muy nervioso y ansioso por recrear el portal, gracias al titán que pudo traer las investigaciones de Belos consigo...

Las opiniones del Gravity Falls Squad sobre todo el Hex Squad

Ford no está nada feliz con que Stanley haya seguido con sus intentos de volver a su dimensión de origen, por otro lado, apenas vio a los niños heridos y con señales de agotamiento, no dudo en darles un lugar donde dormir, en especial a Stan, aunque todos sabemos que entre ellos hay demasiado de que hablar

Stan: cuando lo vio por primera vez después de su aparición en el cómic "A tale of two stans", creyó que era una trampa de Bill, hasta que vio que efectivamente era el verdadero, lo siguiente que supo es que Stan estaba decidido a reabrir un portal, ahora para llevar a esos niños a casa, debia admitir que eso era algo noble, Pero peligroso, sigue pensando que es irresponsable y hasta un idiota, al menos hasta que descubrió que tiene un bastón mágico y conocimientos muy interesantes...

Luz: le recuerda mucho a Dipper y a Mabel, es una combinación de ambos, Pero tiene un buen corazón, le preocupa que ella esté más interesada en el bien de todos, sin importar las consecuencias a largo plazo

Hunter: está preocupado por su salud, nota lo tenso que está, le agrada, pero sabe que es muy desconfiado, aparentemente, está más apegado a Stan

Gus: lo ve como el más débil, aún así, ve su madurez y su deseo de aprender sobre el mundo humano, a veces le recuerda a Stan, pero no quiere pensar en eso ....

Willow: ¿Es normal que ella sea la más fuerte del grupo? Primero pensó que sería la chica inteligente, hasta que vio como controla la magia de las plantas y reflexionó un poco más al respecto, tiene sus dudas sobre si ella está bien después de estos meses

Amity: la respeta, no solo por su determinación, sino también porque es muy inteligente, aunque algo tímida y torpe en ocasiones, le recuerda a Dipper ya que es muy estudiosa, también es como ver una versión pequeña de si mismo

Dipper estaba emocionado de conocer a su tío Stan en persona, no esperaba que fuera tan pronto ni con varios invitados extra, pero cuando escucho que eran jóvenes brujas, su deseo de aprender lo ayudo a interactuar con ellos con naturalidad

Stan: Dipper nunca mentira cuando te diga que lo que más le emocionaba era conocer a Stan en persona, cuando la puerta se abrió y por fin pudo hablar con el, lo primero que Stan dijo fue que necesitaban rehacer el portal para llevar a los niños a casa, desde entonces, Dipper ayuda como puede a Stan con su trabajo, mientras escucha sus historias y aventuras en las islas hirvientes

Luz: le agrada, se parece mucho a Mabel, ella es muy amable, y al ser casi de la misma edad, ella es genial a palabras de Dipper, le gusta hablar con ella de Eda y King, le gusta mucho escuchar de ese otro mundo del que viene

Hunter: ambos son similares, curiosos, se interesaron en la magia salvaje y en los palisman/taliamigos, Hunter es de las pocas personas que consideraría como "hermano" o algo así, le gusta contarle lo que ha descubierto en Gravity falls y lo que sueña encontrar una vez que logren abrir el portal

Gus: para ser sincero, Gus es como un hermano pequeño que siempre quiso, alguien que se asombre con todo lo que él le cuenta, alguien que lo escuche y le haga preguntas sobre sus descubrimientos en el mundo humano, alguien que también quiere llevar a cabo ese tipo de investigaciones, prácticamente, Hunter, Gus y Dipper son el trío de investigadores jóvenes que buscan misterios que descubrir

Willow: okey, hay que admirar que está chica sea la más ruda de su grupo, de hecho, Dipper admite abiertamente que sintio un leve enamoramiento por ella, Pero como en todos sus pocos enamoramientos, no ha llegado a nada, eso sí, admira la fuerza de Willow y su determinación

Amity: curiosamente, le cae muy bien, ya que ambos son considerados los alumnos estrella de sus escuelas respectivas, aunque en la actualidad ya no se así, entienden la presión de tener que ser perfectos, sacar buenas notas y tratar de ser mejores que los demás, de hecho, gracias a ella, Dipper entendió que no debía ser como Ford, porque eso estaba dañando su amistad con Mabel, es una buena chica, da excelentes consejos

Mabel es la que más se alegra de tener a sus nuevos amigos viviendo en la cabaña, es como tener una pijamada en todo el verano ¿Que mejor que eso?

Stan: ella fue quien más quiso tener a Stan en casa, cuando esté apareció con el Hex Squad, Mabel fue la primera en acercarse a abrazar a Stanley, el es protector, responsable, hasta cierto punto, vigila bien a todos los niños, es juguetón y carismático, pasa mucho tiempo con ella y le pide ayuda con el portal

Luz: "¡Es mi hermana mayor! ¡No sé diga más!" Quiere ser como ella cuando crezca

Hunter: "mi chico de ensueño..." Dijo una vez mientras sonreía embobada, ella fue de las que más ayudaron a Hunter, ahora lo ve como su mejor amigo, aunque ese puesto se lo pelea Willow, ya que ella también quiere mucho a Hunter "¡Oh por dios, parece que encontré a una nueva pareja que formar!" Dijo mientras ya hacía planes de citas entre Hunter y Willow

Gus: lo quiere mucho, juega con el a cosas como las pijamadas y le enseño los interesantes conceptos de las citas humanas y su manera de cortejar, algo le dice que Gus está muy a gusto junto a ella, y aunque apenas está comenzando, no le molesta, es agradable de hecho...

Willow: "¡Y ella es mi otra hermana mayor!" Dijo una vez con entusiasmo "¡Es muy fuerte! ¡Y muy ruda!" Le encanta hacer deporte con ella, aunque también le gusta maquillarla y peinar su cabello

Amity: le cae bien, pero como es más cercana a Dipper, no habla mucho con ella, aunque cuando lo hace, le encanta verla junto a Luz, está muy feliz por la pareja Lumity

¡Opinión del Gravity falls Squad sobre Las islas hirvientes!

Stan: un infierno en vida... Al menos hasta que conoces a las personas adecuadas...

Ford: un lugar fascinante Pero peligroso, no debería de ser posible acceder a ese lugar, lo más recomendable sería no abrir más portales...

Dipper: podría tener respuestas a muchas de las preguntas que jamás se han resuelto antes... Podría aprender magia, magia real... Desearía vivir allí ...

Mabel: ¡Quiero ser una bruja! ¡Y hacer magia como el tío Stan!

próximamente: headcanons sobre las interacciones entre los Gemelos con el Hexsquad

Me when I'm in a no media literacy competition and demonizing autistic-coded abuse victims competition and my opponent is the Gravity Falls fandom:

Ford did not get Stan kicked out. That was Filbrick. Ford was a child living in an abusive home. To say that it's Ford's fault is a) abuse apologism as it shifts the blame off the abuser and makes excuses for that abuser and b) victim blaming as it shifts the blame onto one of the victims.

Ford is also not an "entitled baby".

FELLAS, IS IT ENTITLED TO *checks notes* WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE?

He had every right to be angry at Stan over the project. If one of my siblings did that to me, I'd probably never speak to them again. Ford did not know it was an accident, and thought it was deliberate sabotage. On top of that, Stan acted like it didn't even matter and wasn't at all apologetic (which would make it seem like it wasn't an accident). And ultimately, it was more about the betrayal than about the school (but college was still a big deal).

And as a poor Jewish kid in the 70s, college was far from a guarantee. The chance Ford lost as result of Stan's actions is a big deal.

"Narcissist"

And there's the ableism this fandom is so well known for. NPD is not "bad person disorder". There is no "bad person disorder". Regardless, wanting to go to college and wanting a good future for yourself isn't narcissism. What Ford wants is just as important as what Stan wants. Ford has intense interests separate from Stan's, which is fine. He wants to pursue those interests, which is fine. Ford having Special Interests/hyperfixations that he wants to pursue is not a moral failing. You're just ableist.

And Dipper thought that because that's what it looked like.

Rewatching gravity falls

How THE FUCK was Stan painted as the bad guy

FORD WAS AN ENTITLED LITTLE BABY

Yes what Stan did was rash

But maybe that wouldn't have happened

IF STAN'S PARENTS DIDN'T RAISE A LITTLE NARCISSIST

So Ford gets him KICKED OUT

I will forever be on Stan's side

And it makes me mad that Dipper just automatically assumed Stan was a dangerous criminal trying to kill everyone

[scuttledusk]

Fairywren and Nisha for your ask game

OH HELL YEAH. fair warning i fucking love Nisha so much and i love talking abt her

Nisha Houghton is a Knight of the Breaking Dawn, a sort of paramilitary organization whose whole deal is volunteer aid and protection! They travel around the Cursed Wilds and help out smaller communities and towns with everything ranging from fighting off monsters to teaching proper gardening techniques. Nisha’s best friend since childhood and squad captain Paladin Marcus Ramsey is also important to this story but not quite yet, just keep him in mind. The Breaking Dawn stays out of Guardian City because the Shepherds do not like them and their whole “everyone is worthy of help” vibe lol

SO. I spoke about how Fairywren and Ford were traveling with the Twilight Opera Company for a bit, right? Fairywren specifically became very close with Heidi Cantrell, which is why Heidi is now so willing to sneak into the city. BUT!! As previously mentioned, when the Company goes back to the city, they have two new members in tow: Nisha and Ramsey.

About two weeks before this, Nisha and Ramsay’s squad was exploring an old cave that had seemingly been sealed off since before the Red Eclipse - a perfectly preserved little pocket of what the world once was. Unfortunately, that ruin was also the resting place of a huge mechanical monster that seriously injured Nisha and Ramsey and slaughtered the entire rest of the squad.

Yep. Hank, Arthur, Reuben and Sadie are all dead. Ramsey’s leg was ripped off in the fight and Nisha lost an eye!! They were also in the middle of the Cursed Wilds with no healers or medical help anywhere for miles, and Ramsey was unconscious and feverish. Yikes!

Rather than lay down and die, Nisha carried Ramsey on her shoulders and walked for miles without stopping, hoping they’d eventually find help - and what they found was the Twilight Opera Company.

While Ramsey recovers, Nisha gets close to the rest of the gang - especially Heidi. Does she get pulled into the messy polycule? Yes! And so does Ramsey! Wow!

So Nisha and Fairywren have not met yet, but since Nisha is traveling with the group going to the city specifically to help Fairywren out? it’s very likely they’re going to meet soon and i’m very excited abt it now teehee

IMAGES: F-15E land in the Middle East to confirm USAF's "enhanced" presence in support of Israel 🇮🇱

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 10/15/2023 - 11:52am Military, War Zones

The F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jets arrived in the Middle East on October 13, while the U.S. continued to strengthen its forces in the region, the U.S. Air Force announced.

The planes, which were deployed from the RAF Base in Lakenheath, in the United Kingdom, are part of a broader package of forces that were mobilized after Hamas' attack on Israel, including an increasing number of A-10 Thunderbolt II close air support aircraft and F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets.

TAP ARROW BUTTON TO VIEW☝️

"The aircraft's advanced systems and targeting capabilities allow U.S. forces to respond to any crisis or contingency and, if necessary, face and defeat opponents," the Air Force Central (AFCENT) said in a statement announcing the arrival of the F-15E.

The Pentagon did not say where the F-15E would be based. Its arrival comes a day after the Pentagon announced that A-10 Warthogs of the 354º Fighter Squadron of Davis-Monthan Air Base, Arizona, had arrived in the region, in addition to the Warthogs of the 75º Fighter Squadron already in the region.

U.S. officials said that U.S. Air Force F-35 Lightning II stealth fighters are among the additional capabilities that could be sent

“The U.S. military is committed to lasting security and protection throughout the Middle East,” said AFCENT commander Lieutenant General Alexus G. Grynkewich, in a statement of October 13. “By positioning advanced fighters and integrating joint and coalition forces, we are strengthening our partnerships and strengthening security in the region.”

U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III, who arrived in Israel on October 13, met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and the newly formed Israeli war cabinet.

Austin highlighted the "enhanced" presence of the USAF in the Middle East and the deployment of the USS Gerard R. Ford in the Eastern Mediterranean, according to a reading of the Austin meetings provided by the Pentagon Press Secretary, Brig. General Patrick S. Ryder.

The new U.S. assets aim to discourage Hezbollah, the Lebanese militant group, Iran or other groups from trying to escalate the conflict and show support for Israel, which had more than 1,300 citizens killed and other deeds held hostage and brought to Gaza. American citizens are among the dead and taken hostage by Hamas, says the U.S. government. The State Department announced plans to evacuate some American citizens from Israel.

“We have increased U.S. combat aircraft squads in the Middle East, and the U.S. Department of Defense is fully ready to deploy additional resources if necessary,” Austin said during a press conference in Israel on October 13.

In addition to the USAF fighters, the USS Ford also carries four squadrons of F/A-18 Super Hornet fighters, as well as electronic warfare and command and control aircraft. The aircraft carrier is also accompanied by warships carrying cruise missiles.

Ryder added that the U.S. was “accelerating security assistance to Israel, including precision guided ammunition and air defense ammunition.” Austin also "committed to deploy additional assets as needed".

The aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower was supposed to leave Norfolk, Virginia, on October 13, but its deployment was temporarily postponed, according to local media reports. The U.S. military did not say exactly where the Eisenhower and the warships accompanying him will arrive.

Israel responded to Hamas attacks with punitive air strikes in Gaza, and Israeli ground forces seem prepared to intervene, with a large number of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) positioning themselves near Israel's border with Gaza and issuing warnings to evacuate. Netanyahu promised to "s crush and destroy" Hamas.

During his visit, Austin signaled strong support for Israel.

“This is not the time for neutrality, or for false equivalences, or for excuses for the inforgible,” Austin said at a press conference on October 13. "Make no mistake: the United States will ensure that Israel has what it needs to defend itself, and Israel has the right to protect its people."

For the Pollution AU, what sort of other friends would Angie make at the boarding school in Gravity Falls?

Well, first off, Angie befriends San Diego native and smog powered awkward enby Marley Schmetterling. Marley has a tendency to accidentally become smog when startled but is working very hard on that. Marley bonds with Fiddleford over a mutual "our power gives us an odor" situation, though their odor is not even half as offensive as the one produced by Fiddleford.

Angie's roommate (as we've discussed) is Bethany, a young lady victimized by light pollution who can glow. Bethany is fascinated by Angie's power, particularly when she learns that Angie inherited it.

Boyish Dan Corduroy (as we've discussed) is one of the handful of Gravity Falls locals to be at the school. He experiences mutation via the same process as Octavia, the eight-legged cow. He gets himself an extra set of arms. It makes lumberjack work more efficient...once he's gotten used to the extra arms and also can keep his laser vision under control.

Finally, Angie befriends a young lady named Maria. She and her family moved to Gravity Falls from Mexico a few years before Angie arrives at the school. Not long after their move, Maria found herself in the vicinity of the crashed spaceship and spent a lot of time there, playing by herself or with her siblings. Unfortunately, this exposed her to some idk, radiation or energy or something emitted by the spaceship, which ended up giving her shapeshifting abilities when she became a teenager. Angie and Maria bond over the fact that they both remain human while using their powers to change themselves. For everyone else at the school, if they have some level of body altering powers, that alteration results in an inhuman form. (Dan doesn't count because he can't turn the extra arms on and off.)

The four of them, plus Fidds and Ford (and later Stan) make up the Angie Protection Squad. Angie is targeted by Jimmy Snakes, a fellow student at the school, for appearing to be too much of a "normie" to belong there. Her friends do their best to keep Angie away from Jimmy, intervene when he messes with her, and even get back at him. Stan isn't initially a member of the Angie Protection Squad because he's sorta kinda a thing with Jimmy and while he doesn't agree with Jimmy and intervenes sometimes, he doesn't do much more than that. Conflict of interest and all.

Side Note: No one in town knows the real source of Maria's powers. They assume it's the same way Dan got his.

(Also yes Maria is Soos's abuelita.)

[azelmaandeponine]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Ford was absolutely hated by the fandom back in the day.

It's good that the fandom is moving on from the Mabel hate, but shifting it to even more intense Ford hate is...not it.

The reason Ford gets hate is a) he's an abuse victim who acts in a realistic and messy way, and b) ableism.

Ford and Bill's relationship has always been abusive. TBOB just made that extremely explicit. However, since Ford is an abuse victim with flaws, since he's an abuse victim who behaves in a realistic and messy way--the fandom hates him, demonizes him, and victim blames him.

They unironically state he caused his own abuse.

People demonize him for showing trauma symptoms as a result of being abused (ie, his trust issues).

The fandom wants a Perfect Victim. Since Ford is not that, they deem him unworthy of sympathy despite being a literal victim of severe trauma, abuse, torture, and manipulation.

(And that's not even addressing how people blame Ford, a child living in an abusive home, rather than Filbrick over Stan being kicked out.)

And as for the ableism. Ford is heavily autistic coded. And it has not escaped my notice (I am literally an autistic woman) that Ford is frequently demonized for autistic traits. He's made out to be uncaring and a terrible person for having low empathy and low emotional intelligence. He's made out to be a bad person for having a Special Interest. He's made out to be a bad person for being upset when his brother turned his Special Interest into a joke/freak show.

This fandom doesn't understand how abuse and trauma works or how it can effect people and it's obvious. This fandom also really hates autistic people.

And this fandom definitely hates autistic-coded abuse victims.

Maybe a hot take but I think Ford is so hated by the fandom rn (which he shouldn’t be 😀) because people shat so hard on Mabel and they’re trying to dissuade it and almost feel betrayed as Ford is widely loved by the fandom and we never thought that that deep on Ford’s actions which was a mix of his own mistakes but a decent chunk of it was that he was manipulated and overall losing his mind. Especially when he realized the evil he unleashed.

Did he make mistakes ? Yes. That’s what makes a good character. Flaws. Should we acknowledge he makes mistakes ? Yes. Should we say he’s a bad person who hates his brother and a jerk to everyone ? No :S. Overall I think people feel like they didn’t give Ford enough credit for weirdmageddon rather shifted the blame to Mabel. Altho obviously the real villain is Bill (altho dammit Ford the cave said NOT to summon but realistically most people would probably say the incantation anyway including me lol)

[azelmaandeponine]

"Ford treated Fiddleford like Bill treated Ford"

Oh yeah, remember when Ford horrifically tortured Fiddleford? Neither do I cause it never fucking happened.

Adam Beach

was born in Ashern, Manitoba, the son of Sally and Dennis Beach, and was raised on the Dog Creek First Nations Reserve, with his two brothers. A troubled childhood saw his mother killed by a drunk driver, and his alcoholic father drowned only weeks afterward. The three brothers went to live with their grandmother and then with their uncle and aunt in Winnipeg, where Adam joined drama classes and began acting in local theatre productions.

Since then he has appeared in over 60 films and television programs. His performance in the Academy Award-nominated Clint Eastwood-directed Flags of Our Fathers (2006) was phenomenal. He played Ira Hayes, a Pima Native American who was one of the six US Marines to raise the American flag on Iwo Jima and who found the resulting fame hard to handle, subsequently giving way to alcoholism. This alone would have been an emotional role for Adam to play; however, during filming, both his grandmother and best friend passed away. His role as Hayes is both realistic and heartbreaking, earning him two Best Supporting Actor Award Nominations. He stands out well above the rest of the cast.

- IMDb Mini Biography By: Matt Lee-Williams

[on his role in Arctic Air (2012)] I do a lot of inspirational talks for kids, to motivate them to change their lives and give them hope. And I found that this character shares a lot of those qualities. A lot of the communities I connect to get their inspiration from television and YouTube. I felt that this character could reach out to them and really connect. He's a character who's struggling with himself. He's trying to get back in touch with the person he once was.

[on First Nations people in Canada, and their treaty rights] I'm asking what is anybody doing right now to propel anything? All they are after is how we get that land that the Indians have by using our power to take away our rights. You can't propel a nation to move forward if all you are doing is taking something from them.

I feel I will always have that spirit bear with me, so I will always feel protected.

We're not going anywhere. We are never going to give up our sovereignty. We will always advance and we will always rise above any conflict.

Fun fact!

Those tags in the screenshot are what caused me to make this post!

But yeah, at this point, Ford haters/blamers are literally IGNORING CANON to victim blame him. It's canon that several others have been manipulated by Bill.

nice argument however you’re wrong

this fucking reeks of victim blaming. calling someone stupid and selfish for getting abused an manipulated i see.

2024 Packers 2-Round Mock Draft

With the NFL season over, eyes now turn to the free agency and draft period and seeking to strengthen their squads, the post-season period becomes fertile ground for speculation and projections. Many NFL fans have even started placing their bets at Palm casino on this round. In this context, the Packers, like many other teams, enter into a meticulous process of analysis and planning. Looking at the current roster outlook and anticipating market movements, it’s time for my first mock draft for the Packers.

First Round, Pick 25: CB Kool-Aid McKinstry, Alabama

The often underrated nickel corner position has proven crucial in high-level league settings, as evidenced by Trent McDuffie’s performance on the Chiefs’ Super Bowl run, where he not only played a vital role, but also stood out as an MVP candidate.

With Jaire Alexander and Carrington Valentine capable of playing on the outside and uncertainty regarding the return of Eric Stokes, strengthening the nickel position emerges as a priority for the Packers.

In this situation, the Packers find themselves faced with a pressing need to strengthen the nickel position, and the selection of McKinstry emerges as a highly promising choice to fill this gap in the squad.

Second Round, Pick 47: WR Xavier Legette, South Carolina

I chose to go down from pick 41 to 47, aiming to accumulate picks for day 3.

In this context, Legette’s choice stands out as a decision that promises to bring greater versatility and dynamism to the Packers’ group of receivers. His speed and explosion after the catch, combined with his ability to line up in different positions on the field, offer a range of options for Matt LaFleur.

Furthermore, when considering the Packers’ history of drafting wide receivers in the second round, with names like Jordy Nelson and Davante Adams, the bet on Legette appears to be a wise continuation of the franchise’s tradition of success at that key position. Why not continue trusting in the magic that has borne fruit in the past?

Second Round, Pick 57: S Kamren Kinchens, Miami

At pick 57, I went with Kamren Kinchens, recognizing the Packers’ pressing need at the safety position. Kinchens emerges as a promising option to inject a vital dose of physicality into the defense, a quality that has been notably absent in recent years.

His ability to read plays quickly, combined with his willingness to play physical, makes him an ideal candidate to strengthen Green Bay’s secondary. Additionally, Darnell Savage, Rudy Ford and Jonathan Owens will soon be free agents.

With the possibility of not renewing their contracts, Kinchens’ selection could become even more crucial, possibly allowing the Packers to restart the safeties room from scratch.

It wouldn’t be surprising if the Packers chose not to select a wide receiver in this draft, given the promising potential already present on the roster with names like Watson, Doubs, Reed and Wicks.

These young talents offer a solid foundation and promising prospects for the future of the position. Instead of focusing exclusively on receiver options, the team can direct its attention to strengthening the offensive line, a need that is becoming increasingly evident. With players like Runyan and Nijman set to become free agents and the uncertainty surrounding David Bakhtiari’s return, investing in offensive line talent in the first rounds, perhaps even the first two, could be a choice to ensure essential protection for Jordan Love.

Musing On Possibilities Episode 4: Power Vacuum

Bright white lights shined onto the barrels of rifles and through claustrophobic halls. The ticking of a clock reverberated throughout the chambers. Moving eyes drifted over frozen bodies, static eyes drifted over moving bodies. Eyes frozen, stuck in chambers filled with blue sludge. One beacon of light happened to shine upon the three missing men–Jason Ford, Professor Chuck Solman and Lud-Von Fasilliare–stagnant and floating in blue ooze.

One of the bomb squad's soldiers picked up a nearby hatchet and smashed each glass tank one by one, freeing the men from the blue ooze and getting some of it over themselves. Jason, Solman and Fasilliare ran out of the facility, but the bomb squad team sent out to investigate was never found.

Solman–known at his school as the Prof, somehow ended up back in his swiveling chair, half-awake and surrounded by his students. He was confused as to how he ended up here, as the last thing he remembered was being locked into a stasis chamber by a man with purple and black garms. He remembered a name: Jordan Frand.

Was this Frand? Was Frand trying to protect him? Frand didn't just lock him away, but also Fasilliare and Jason Ford. Prof didn't know Ford, but he knew Fasilliare as a licensed physician at the Firman-Red Institute Of Medicine in Orlando, Florida, where his cringeworthy jokes obtained the nickname "The Corny And Cheesy Dr. F."

He overheard Frand saying something about "locking one away for the good of everyone else... two away for their own good." Prof turned on the TV–a frantic reporter delivering devastating news. There was something going on, a strange and luminescent green gas spreading through New York.

There was green in New York skies–the green gas floated into homes, drifted through the clouds and absorbing them, the skies assimilating the lime hue of the toxic gas. The reporter telling the camera about this, a man wearing a black suit, slacks and shoes put on a surgical mask, wheezed and vomited.

Behind the reporter, Prof saw the same power plant facility he had escaped from, a place now bursting with flames. Fire trucks pulled into the parking lot, people in embattled yellow suits rushing into the building–they were ready to battle away the crawling warm monsters. They had no full guarantee of safety despite their uniforms, and were ready to let the blazes scorch their skin if it meant saving lives.

Dr. F. had been unleashed. But as quickly as he had been unleashed, his flames had been extinguished. The building collapsed, the entire power plant crumbling into the ashes.

Consumed by the shining greeen aura, his legacy still survived. Yet fading into the ashes, Dr. F.'s effects remained. Dr. F. held on, a ghostly arm of control clutching onto the rubble of what he had left.

How Buying An Armored Ford Vehicle Is Worth It?

There are a variety of reasons why you might want to buy an armored Ford vehicle. The first reason is to protect you and your family from a violent attack. The second reason is that you may need to protect a valuable vehicle from theft or robbery. Whatever your reason, there are a lot of different models of armored vehicles you can choose from or visit Inkas armored for Armored ford for sale.

Audi A8 L Security

Audi's armored sedan, the Audi A8 L Security, is a unique vehicle that offers top-of-the-line protection. The vehicle has been designed to withstand attack by military-grade small arms, machine-gun bombardment, and mines. It also has fire extinguishing capabilities.

Audi's A8 L Security has been marketed as the "most secure Audi ever." It can withstand NATO 7.62x51 mm round, hardened steel bullets from assault rifles, and chemical attacks. In addition, the cabin has been tested for explosive resistance.

The armored A8L is a larger, heavier vehicle than the standard S8. It weighs around 3.9 tonnes. However, it offers high performance despite its weight. It is also powered by a W12 FSI mill, producing 435 hp.

The interior of the Audi A8 L Security includes a reinforced safety cell and aramide fabric. Its glass portions are resistant to class 10 standards. It also features self-healing fuel tanks.

The Audi A8 L Security is also designed to withstand squad-based heavy artillery. It can take a blast of 15 kilograms of TNT from two meters. It has an internal oxygen supply and a fire suppression system. It also has a patented emergency exit system.

Bentley Bentayga

If you want the ultimate in luxury and protection, the Bentley Bentayga is the vehicle for you. It offers a plethora of unique features, ranging from chemical weapons protections to night vision.

This SUV offers a luxurious interior, with hand-crafted trim, and a 6.0-liter W-12 engine. It can hit 0-62mph in four seconds. It also has a powerful four-level air-suspension. This armored Bentley can withstand a barrage of 7.62mm assault rifle bullets, as well as a simultaneous detonation of two DM51 hand grenades.

Land Rover has unveiled a new range of armored Range Rover Sentinel SUVs. These vehicles have been developed in-house by the company's Special Vehicle Operations division. Compared to the previous Sentinel model, this one has more power and speed.

With its 5.0-litre supercharged V-8 engine, the Sentinel can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in only 9.8 seconds. The SUV is also equipped with an auxiliary back-up battery and a self-sealing fuel tank.

The Sentinel features an array of security systems to ensure that the driver and passengers can escape from an attack. These include an Emergency Escape System, emergency service lights, a public address system, and a configurable siren.

Armormax

In the United States, there are only a few companies that offer vehicle bulletproofing services. These companies are Armormax, International Armoring Corporation, and Rezvani. They are popular with celebrities, sheiks, and under-the-radar-business owners. They provide protection for vehicles on crime-ridden roads.

The International Armoring Corporation has been a leading company in the field of vehicle bulletproofing for decades. It provides Armormax lightweight protection for vehicles. The company is known for its lightweight materials and its ability to protect passengers without affecting the performance of the vehicle. It's also been involved in the development of the tanklike armored SUV of Rezvani.

While most vehicle armoring processes add thousands of pounds to a car, Armormax uses composite ballistic materials that are much lighter than steel armour. This allows them to build vehicles that are completely bombproof. It also does not require the use of upgraded brakes and suspension components. This way, the vehicle retains its original driving dynamics.

[owl-falls-au-gravity-falls]

Ooooo, wait I just realized that this would mean Stan meets father Titan aka King’s dad.

And just imagine with me, because of the curse, not only does he gain the Titian’s power and form, but gets to keep both cause it gets mixed in with the curse, and so when he reappears like a phoenix, he’s in this fusion form of himself, his curse form and the titan form.

Everyone is of course in shock. But before they can even really register it, Belos attacks again, but Stan summons a shield protecting them, and begins to fight Belos, while telling Collector to take Dipper, Mabel, and Ford as far away from here.

Luz, Eda, and King quickly join him.

Meanwhile Collector takes Dipper, Mabel, and Ford back to his palace, to help out the others in freeing everyone, while he holds the palace up. (Let’s agree that Stan and Luz had taught them all about how to make the right glyphs/ combinations, whilst they were still in Gravity Falls) and so everyone gets free a lot faster. So by the time they free everyone and get back, the fight with Belos is over.

The fight with Belos gets intense, they free Raine, they get back to fighting Belos, with it ending with both Stan and Luz pulling Belos off of the heart.

The just like originally, Eda, King, and Raine stomp off what’s left of Belos, though of course, with there being 3 extra people helping, the Hex squad were able to free everyone, and took Ford, Mabel, and Dipper back to where the fight had been happening. And so they also get the chance to stomp off Belos, especially Mabel, Dipper, and Ford, for killing their grunkle/brother.

Once that’s over with, they do get to reunite with Stan properly, with Ford crying hysterically, and apologizing so much while hugging him.

IN ENGLISH

You are absolutely right!

My idea for Stan to vanish into fire and ashes came from this post.

In this publication, an attempt is made to define what Stan's symbol means.

And since Stan has always been associated with fire, as well as phoenixes, he would rise from the ashes as a new person, someone complete...

I'd like to dig deeper into Stan's interaction with King's father.

After dying, Stan appears in the Intermediate Realm, descending once again, there, Stan would think that he should have told the children that he loves them.

Then someone pulls it out and it's none other than King's dad.

English:Stan: What...? King?

Titan: no, but I got the charm

Stan: … oh… Titan…

Titan: oh, I…

Stan: … you… are… are you King’s father?

Titan: King said it best, “I’m king and queen, the best of both worlds,” although “dad” works for me… I’m your fan, by the way - he points to a hat, once he’s on, with a crescent-shaped symbol and a small circle next to it -

Stan: oh, ah… thanks… I think… wait… if you’re here… does that mean I’m… dead?

Titan: not quite, your body was destroyed thanks to Belos, but it’s still possible for you to come back…

Stan: - relieved to know that - that’s great! … But… what is this place?

Titan: Welcome to the space in between! It's actually among many other things... this is a bridge that connects to all worlds...

Stan: you... you were the voice I heard when I tried to create the portal...

Titan: that's right... I must say that I'm very impressed... no human had achieved as many things as you... your family will be proud of you...

Stan: I'm not so sure...

Titan: don't underestimate yourself... taking care of those children, learning the glyphs, helping Eda and my son, coexisting with your curse, beating Bill at his own game, facing Belos, even when you doubted yourself...

Stan: w-well, when you put it like that, it does sound incredible... but... it's not much use if I can't protect them all... now I'm here...

Titan: it's true...

Stan: and... even so, I made many mistakes... I don't think I can help my family if I keep making mistakes...

Titan: ... all your life you've thought that you're someone replaceable, that you're not important and that no one I would miss you… life has treated you like garbage… but you never let that stop you… you accomplished amazing things… and you are capable of more than you imagine…

The squares around them showed memories of Stan and some of his exploits, how he discovered how to do glyph magic, how he managed to calm the beast from its own curse, how he tricked Bill into a truce between the two of them and how he saved the children countless times, even when he created the portals with little information and the moment he saved the collector

Titan: Your path may have started in a painful way… but for 40 years, you changed, you grew, you matured and you became stronger… you sacrificed yourself, not for the common good, but for the love of your loved ones… now they need you back…

Stan: … I don't stand a chance against Belos… it was easy before, but now… I can't…

Titan: mmh… well…

As everything around him shakes violently, Stan looks at his chest The Titan fills with something green

Titan: I don't have much time left... but you can still stop him...

Stan: How?! I'm not a witch or a wizard, I'm not like the "chosen ones" from the books of Light. I don't even know who I am!

Titan: Then you'll have to find out for yourself... I'll give you the power to stop Belos... but only if you accept it

The Titan extends his hand, a glow comes out of it and the four basic glyphs that Stan learned are drawn

Stan: I-I... I don't know... What if I fail?

Titan: ... listen carefully... you are Stanley Pines, from the human realm, one of the most powerful wizards of the boiling islands and warrior of peace... you have the power of your curse, you are the reincarnation of one of the most dangerous entities in the multiverse and you are undoubtedly someone with a good heart... the question is... Do you choose yourself, "chosen one"?

Stan hesitates, but knowing that his family needs him, and knowing that there are no other options, he decides to accept

As he shakes hands with the Titan's hand, he feels the magic entering his body

Titan: Belos is about to be able to control everything, so you must be quick…

Stan: I…

Titan: Unlike magic in humans, you have more power on your own, so my magic should last more than enough, just don't use it lightly and remember not to let Bill control you

Stan: Wait, what about King?! Don't you want to tell him something?

Titan: …

The Titan whispers something to Stan

Stan: Yeah, he'll definitely love it… but… What do you mean I'm a reincarnation?

Titan: What I mentioned about you being a reincarnation should be able to help you, once you come back, you won't be just Stan anymore, you'll be a new person and that person will be you, you, Bill and Lupin will be one…

Stan: What? But-

Stan is stunned to see that the titan has returned to its original form

Titan: Goodbye, “chosen one”… just kidding… goodbye, Stanley Pines…

And so, the titan sank into those strange black waters of the intermediate space

And Stan would return, no longer as a human with two demons co-existing in his mind, but as a different person…

And as the titan sinks, Stan hears a voice that slowly becomes familiar to him... AXOLOTL...

Well done, Stanley...

EN ESPAÑOL

¡Tienes toda la razón!

Mi idea de que Stan se desvanezca entre fuego y cenizas salió de esta publicación

en ella se intenta definir que significa el simbolo de Stan

Y ya que Stan siempre estuvo asociado al fuego, así como los fénix, renaceria de las cenizas como una nueva persona, alguien completo...

Me gustaría indagar más sobre la interacción de Stan con el padre de King

Después de haber muerto, Stan aparece en el Reino intermedio, descendiendo una vez más, ahí, Stan pensaría en que debió decirle a los niños que los ama

Entonces, alguien lo saca y es nada menos que el papá de King

Stan: ¿Que...? ¿King?

Titan: no, pero se mi heredó el encanto

Stan: … oh… Titan…

Titan: oh, yo…

Stan: … ¿tu… eres… eres el padre de King?

Titan: King lo dijo mejor, “Soy rey y reina, lo mejor de ambas cosas”, aunque “papá” funciona para mi… soy tu fan, por cierto - señala un sombrero, un vez que tiene puesto, con el símbolo de una especie de medialuna y un pequeño círculo al lado -

Stan: oh, ah… gracias… creo… espera … si tú estás aquí… eso significa que yo estoy… muerto?

Titan: no del todo, tu cuerpo se destruyó gracias a Belos, pero aún es posible que regreses…

Stan: - aliviado de saber eso - ¡que bien! … Pero… ¿Qué es este lugar?

Titan: ¡Bienvenido al espacio intermedio! En realidad está entre muchas otras cosas… este es un puente que se conecta con todos los mundos…

Stan: tu… tu eras la voz que escuchaba cuando intentaba crear el portal…

Titan: así es… debo decir que estoy muy impresionado… ningún humano había logrado tantas cosas como tú… tu familia estará orgullosa de ti…

Stan: no estoy tan seguro…

Titán: no te subestimes… cuidar de esos niños, aprender los glifos, ayudar a Eda y a mi hijo, coexistir con tu maldición, ganarle en su propio juego a Bill, enfrentar a Belos, incluso cuando dudabas de ti mismo…

Stan: b-bueno, cuando lo pones así, si suena algo increíble… pero… no sirve de mucho si no puedo protegerlos a todos… ahora estoy aqui…

Titan: es cierto…

Stan: y… aun así, cometí muchos errores… no creo que pueda ayudar a mi familia si sigo cometiendo errores…

Titan: … toda tu vida has pensado que eres alguien reemplazable, que no eres importante y que nadie te extrañaria… la vida te ha tratado como basura… pero nunca dejaste que eso te detenga… lograste cosas impresionantes… y eres capaz de mas de lo que imaginas…

Los cuadrados alrededor de ellos mostraron recuerdos de Stan y algunas de sus hazañas, como descubrió a hacer magia de glifos, como logro calmar a la bestia de su propia maldición, como engaño a Bill para que ellos dos llegaran a una tregua y como salvó a los niños incontables veces, incluso cuando creo los portales con poca información y el momento en que Salvo al coleccionista

Titan: puede que tu camino iniciará de una forma dolorosa… pero durante 40 años, fuiste cambiando, creciste, maduraste y te volviste mas fuerte… te sacrificaste, no por el bien común, sino por amor a tus seres queridos… ahora ellos te necesitan de vuelta…

Stan: … no tengo ninguna oportunidad contra Belos… antes era fácil, pero ahora… no puedo…

Titan: mmh… bueno…

Mientras todo alrededor se sacude violentamente, Stan mira que el pecho del Titán se llena de algo verde

Titan: no me queda mucho tiempo… pero aun puedes detenerlo…

Stan: ¡¿Cómo?! No soy una bruja o un hechicero, no soy como los “elegidos” de los libros de Luz ¡Ni siquiera se quien soy!

Titan: entonces tendrás que averiguarlo tu… te daré el poder para detener a Belos… pero solo si lo aceptas

El titán extiende su mano, de ella sale un brillo y se dibujan los cuatro glifos básicos que Stan aprendió

Stan: y-yo… No lo sé… ¿Y si fracaso?

Titan: … escucha bien… tu eres Stanley Pines, proveniente del reino humano, uno de los hechiceros más poderosos de las islas hirvientes y guerrero de la paz…tienes el poder de tu maldición, eres la reencarnación de uno de los entes más peligrosos del multiverso y sin duda eres alguien de buen corazón… la pregunta es… ¿Te eliges a ti mismo, “elegido”?

Stan duda, pero sabiendo que su familia lo necesita, y sabiendo quenp hay más opciones, decide aceptar

Cuando estrecha su mano con la mano del Titan, siente la magia entrando en su cuerpo

Titan: Belos esta por poder controlar todo, así que debes ser rápido…

Stan: yo…

Titan: a diferencia de la magia en humanos, tú tienes más poder por tu cuenta, así que mi magia deberá durar más que suficiente, solo no lo uses a la ligera y recuerda no dejar que Bill te controlé

Stan: espera, pero ¡¿que pasa con King?! ¿No quieres decirle algo?

Titan: …

El titán le susurra algo a Stan

Stan: si, en definitiva le encantará… pero… ¿A que te refieres con que soy una reencarnación?

Titán: lo que mencioné sobre que eres una reencarnación debería poder ayudarte, una vez que vuelvas, ya no serás solo Stan, serás una nueva persona y esa persona serás tú, tu, Bill y Lupin serán uno solo…

Stan: ¿Que? Pero-

Stan se queda anonadado al ver que el titán volvió a tener su forma original

Titan: adiós, “elegido”… es broma… adiós, Stanley Pines…

Y así, el titan se hundió en esas extrañas aguas negras del espacio intermedio

Y Stan volvería, ya no como un humano con dos demonios co-existiendo en su mente, sino como una persona diferente…

Y mientras el titán se hunde, Stan escucha una voz que poco a poco se vuelve familiar para el... AXOLOTL...

Bien hecho, Stanley...
