Gravity Falls: Better World AU HCs
Just some little HCs about the Better World AU. These are also story concepts and gags for my fanfic Separate Worlds.
Despite taking Dipper in as his apprentice, Ford doesn't know anything about keeping a twelve year old alive. He forgot to buy a bed for Dipper for one thing, or at least prepare a room for him. He has to get advice from Fiddleford and Manly Dan on how to handle this. Luckily for him, Dipper didn't even mind the lack of a bed.
2. Ford is on the cover of a magazine called Silver Fox Monthly. Lazy Susan has a crush on Ford, which he's oblivious to (he's considered quite attractive to middle aged women). She once asked him to sign her copy of Silver Fox Monthly when he and Dipper ate at her diner. He was so confused about why the magazine wasn't about foxes.
3. The Institute of Oddology has a robotics lab, museum wing, paranormal rehabilitation center (while some people will call it a zoo, Ford is adamant that is NOT a zoo), and gift shop open to the public. They regularly give educational tours to school groups and tourists. Ford was against the gift shop until Fiddleford finally convinced him to keep it for additional revenue. Wendy works here during certain school nights and weekends.
4. Soos works for the Institute, but he isn't close to Ford. They're strictly employee and boss. He does all sorts of odd jobs here and around town, whatever pays the bills really. Because he doesn't have Stan as a father figure, he tends to put aside his own wants and dreams to support others, sometimes to his detriment.
5. Every so often, anti-paranormal protestors will come to the Institute and chant stuff about the Institute being satanic and how they were all going to hell. In response, Fiddleford usually chases them off with an anti-protestor bot.
6. Shermie Pines is Ford's older brother, but they aren't close. Shermie had been drafted for Vietnam shortly after his wife became pregnant, and was absent around the time Stan got kicked out. Shermie's biggest regret in life is not being there for his younger brothers when they needed him, and Ford feels resentful that he and Stan couldn't depend on him for help. On the other hand, Shermie thinks Ford has become too much like Filbrick in valuing money and personal success over family.
7. Ford was present for Dipper and Mabel's birth, the only family event he was present for before inviting Dipper to become his apprentice. When Mabel first meets the spirit in the journal, she shows him the only personal photo she has of Ford, a picture of him holding newborn Dipper and Mabel. She thinks he looks sad for a completely different reason.

Pilot Project : Vogelfrei, a Gravity falls Fanfic Idea
Tumblr media
(POST DATESTAMP: post started on December 8, 2024)
Start note: If some of you remember my post about a potential fanfic with the Handyman Bill Au , then I have great news! Not only have I settled on a title, but the story is lining up for a potentially elaborate sequel! While the first story will mostly be written in a traditional sense, I decided to experiment with comic making for the follow-up story. After mind-boggling hours of search for a pleasant closure to the initial story (for which leaving an open ending seemed tasteless), making a sequel was a rather exciting idea. From all the stories I’ve ever wrote, rarely any had been turned into a duology, let alone one in comic format. Additionally, the sequel will require a lot more world building, unlike the first story, it will loosely follow the bases of the gravity falls books (TBOB and the Adventures) rather than the show.
Fanfic Idea in Brief Details
Title: Vogelfrei/ Pilot Project Vogelfrei
Placeholder title : Tears So Hot They Make The Universe Burn (No comment about the terrible acronym this title would have gotten.)
Expected length : ~15-20K words to begin with (book 1)
The plot : see here for a draft of the plot idea, however it is not up-to-date -> a fresh version with an adequate summary will be posted later.
Pairings? : Billford(One-sided then QPR), Fidauthor (Also QPR) Melody/Soos, Fiddleford/Stanley, Ford & Old Goldie* (briefly).
*canonically, Ford is married to the golden statue because of Stan usurping his name, no one’s happy about it. They get a divorce, much to Stanley’s dismay.
Production: what to expect ?
To start, all the energy I get and pour into making fanfiction is bestowed upon me by coffee, the hyper fixation frenzy of an ADHD brain ,and the reading of amazing fanfiction that inspired me to further my ideas into actual, tangible stories. I will do my best to get the story plot down as text before the enchantment of the fixation flies away, as if I ever lose the interest,the whole house of cards comes tumbling down.
Pacing of the production : I have both the general outlines for Vogelfrei and its sequel ready, with a little luck I will get the first story down through the winter holidays, if not, it will stretch until around June for the completion. The sequel will be produced immediately after the first story is finished.
Comics and artworks: I have recently experimented with 6-10 panel comic strips on my iPad, but I am better at making traditional art. So there will be digital and paper drawn doodles peppered here and on AO3 once the process is started. I will have separate batches of art, one which will contain art directly related to the plot , and another with ‘extras’, labeled accordingly.
Answers to any other inquiries you might have
TBOB and Gravity Falls series compatibility -> will I get spoilers?
If you’re new to the fandom and haven’t seen the whole series yet, I suggest to finish it first and skim over the GF wiki , for context of how Bill ends up in the Theraprism. I haven’t gotten my hands on much of TBOB except some pages and ideas here and there, therefore it probably wont be much of a spoiler—There however will be lots of contradictions, especially with TBOB.
2. Audience ratings
Both are 16+ in my opinion, if you are younger and choose to read regardless of the warnings, that is up to you. Thought keep in mind there will be a significant amount of swearing, some depictions of substance abuse (alcohol mostly, but also some other stuff), self-harm, violence (verbal and physical) and suicidal thoughts (briefly towards the end the first story). In any case, I will add a CW/TW notice when time comes.
3. Asks/Fanart
Questions, comments, music suggestions and fanart are all very welcome! I’m mostly writing this for myself to satisfy cravings, but I’d be glad to know that it also made someone else smile.
End note : Soon the winter holidays will begin and so will my writing, hopefully, I will get the time to do half of the story. I will post here and on AO3, but most of the art will link back to my blog. If , in the end, the story gets to monopolize my tumblr, I will make a separate blog for it to keep this one from getting too cluttered. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to ask!
P.S.: In parallel to this story, I am working on another Gravity falls Au, called Rewind the Timeline, for which I intend to write a short historical fanfiction which will span from the late 18th century throughout the 21st century. It will be focused on Bill’s perspective a lot more than Vogelfrei, which will have some shifts in point of view. You can find the fic idea on my pinned post.

Okay, I am def new to the DBD shipping side of the fandom (I literally live, laugh, love Fanfiction why’d it take me years to discover my people are here) so outta curiosity how’d you get to shipping Jill and Nea?
And any of your other ships if you’d like to explain them to (Haddie and Mikaela are literally my life rn you draw them so cute<3)
Why hello there! Welcome in<33
It’s actually Jill x Meg! I’ve been calling it Speeding Bullet.
Tumblr media
It started because my gf at the time was the one who introduced me to dbd- we met through the re8 community and they dragged me over to The Entity’s realm wheeze. They actually introduced me to Susie/Julie first! Those were the characters that got me into dbd.
My first dbd simp was Susie lmao, here’s the proof:
Tumblr media
When I did get the game finally- they mained Jill and I mained Meg- so I started shipping them together, and the more I thought about them- the more they just made sense together- and I’ve continued shipping them since then.
Although it was a messy break up- I still hold that person dear to my heart. It was my first serious relationship, and although there were many flaws- it was my first mostly healthy relationship. They accepted me despite my critical stage of depression- the one to push me to therapy, to really start that journey to discovering myself and learning to accept myself. And as I continued my journey to accepting myself, I used Haddie to help me- and eventually I started shipping Haddie/Mikaela as a way to exercise self-love when I finally came to accept most of who I am now.
Haddie and Mikaela have a pretty complicated history with me bahaha. Haddie in particular. It’s a lot of baggage I’m not comfortable sharing publicly, but to have a home for them on my blog has been a huge honour<3
And for that ex-gf, I really hope they’re doing well. We may not have separated on the best of terms, but I was blessed to have our worlds cross for the time it did. It was definitely an experience I wouldn’t have traded for anything, and perhaps someday I’ll have the honour to see them again and thank them for being such a wonderful person. They were such an expressive, unique individual who saw the world so differently- the experience I had being theirs for the moment I was has and will always continue to inspire me.

COUNTDOWN: 2 DAYS.
This coverart was commissioned for a novel-length fanfiction project that I've been turntabling in my head for a good couple years. I've put portions of it to paper (or Word, rather), and thanks to the kindness of many a pro bono editor, it's finally ready to peek its head out into the the light of day.
A YUGE thank you to my cartoonist buddy, "Buff," whose illustrative talents breathed some tangibility into the story via the featured image. There are many more acknowledgements to make, and they will come in due time, when the story is uploaded to fanfiction.net on Thursday, 6/15/2023, no later than 8pm ET. (The link to which will be its own separate post, on the day of.)
For now, I humbly introduce you to the world of this alternate Gravity Falls continuity with its summary:
A brush with time travel leaves Dipper entangled in a new mystery, while an old rival schemes from the shadows. Everything is different, now: he and Stan can't see eye-to-eye. There's more to Wendy than it seems. Mabel, as always, is the wild card, but it's Dipper who has to answer: what does he truly want? And how much will it change him?
Though this story is obviously meant for the fandom, you'll likely have a more immersive experience by re-visiting this small handful of GF episodes:
*"Time Traveler's Pig" *"Fight Fighters" *"Little Dipper" *"Summerween"
You are welcome to DM me here, or for an even faster response, PM me on fanfiction.net. (My penname is Ricky Roma's Cadillac; https://www.fanfiction.net/~rickyromascadillac)
Until then, take a quick moment to favorite this and give me a li'l follow, that way you can be one of the first to know when the story's live!
So stay safe, sane, and Scooby-licious! (Whatever that means. I'm pretty sure it was the marketing slogan for a Scooby-Doo cereal once upon a time. And who doesn't like Scooby-Doo cereal? Only unicorn-hating communists, that's who.)

Rent Free Info Dump
Rent Free is essentially House of Dark but expanded because I cannot stop myself. For those who don’t know House of Dark, it was a comic series I did back in College.  Basically my persona, Dark, would share her home with the characters she adores and just… live life.  No big plots (aside from when Dante left her alone to go visit her parents), no big enemies (aside from a massive snowstorm), nothing but living as a college student. Rent Free is similar, though I do plan to have some plots (a few relationships have subplots, as well as a few connections between students at the Academy and Kaiju in the Range), some enemies (looking at you, Salem) and a lot of slice of life. But there are a lot of characters. Nearly 11,520 canon characters of various shows, games, etc.; Just over 1000 OCs; and, counted separate, over 1000 animal characters that, essentially count as pets.  Honestly, I know that list will grow, as I cannot control myself. As such, it made more sense to create a city rather than just a single household.  All that said, this document will provide needed context for whenever I post any fanfiction that takes place in the Rent Free AU.
Point 1:  World's End World's End is the name given to the world that was created to house all of these characters.  The name World's End comes from an original (and unfortunately shelved) work of mine, and because I had a blast making the city, I decided to honor it by moving it to Rent Free.  It is a mix of magic and technology, and is centered around one building: the Apartments. World's End also has an elevator within the Apartments and other important places of note (such as the Academy) that takes folks to an area with a "paradise under the ground" feel called The Range. The city portion has all the amentities needed: a hospital (vet included), shops and restuarants, clubs and casinos, and a school called The Academy.  Outside the city, is a military base, shipyard for interdimensional travel, and farm lands, among other things. One thing to note:  Transformers is among the fandoms involved in this so the city is big enough to accomodate them but also provides mass displacers in a variety of places.  The military base also hosts a place for Holoform use. Aside from The Apartments and Academy (which will get their own points), the most well  known areas of interest (read as the most used areas) are as follows: - The Fast Break Nook - a cafe run by Dark's gf Jaden which is right next to - Thank You Oven Bakery - a bakery run by Dark's "daughter" Tessa - The Jasmine Tea Shop - A tea shop and cafe run mainly by Iroh and supported by Chloe Battenberg who also runs a tea related store called Triple Sweet - Triple Six - a karaoke bar and nightclub run by the demon Sorath - Queen Department Store - a massive store owned by multiple Isekai villainess protagonists working together.  Though unlike other department stores, they support the smaller businesses around the area. - Emerald Fields - A collection of Farmsteads run by different folks that focus on different forms of farming - Pavel Labs - Originally called Stoica Labs, it was renamed after the original head was discovered to be a massive scum bag.  His ex wife, Curia Pavel, has taken over and, with her assistants, uses it as a testing ground for artificial limbs, both magic based and technology based. - Applegate Counseling - A collection of therapists, counselors and psyhologists who assist those with trauma of any kind, owned by Maria Applegate - The Archives - Not a traditional library, this facility is run by Login, and allows folks to essentially watch the media that they originally come from.  It also acts as a portal to other worlds but only if Login allows it.
Point 2:  The Range
The Range, as stated before, is an underground world, home to multiple animals who are not domesticated.  They hunt on their own and have few interactions with humans, aside from a select few (the Rangers, obviously).  Their food sources are usually brought in from the universes they are from.
The area is split into nine areas, with magic barriers in place to keep most predators and prey in one selected area to prevent any turf wars.  Currently, Dark is taking time to introduce creatures to each other, but in a safe manner to ensure survival.  The only creatures allowed to move between the Sectors are the Predacons and Maximals.
Each area has multiple water sources, one mountainous area and at least 2 to 3 outposts for when inspections need to be done, unless a ranch is specified.  In order to travel to any of the Sectors (minus Sector 7, 8 and 9), at least one Ranger MUST be present.
Area 1 is called the Drac Sector, home to most fantasy creatures, such as dragons (mainly from Dragalia Lost), griffins, and monsters from Monster Hunter (Dark has a soft spot for Rathalos).
Area 2 is called the Zeno Sector, where species not native to Earth live.  It mostly consists of species found in James Cameron's Avatar (and this is the ONLY thing from Avatar in Rent Free) and some from Ben 10 and other scifi shows.
Area 3 is called the Kaiju Sector and is the largest of the 9 sectors.  It should go without saying that, based on the name, Godzilla and his crew mainly inhabit this sector.
Area 4 is called the Jurassic Sector and is the smallest.  It houses only a few creatures, the two main ones being Rexy and Blue.  Dark is debating of getting a few more dinos or if she should try to introduce the ones she has to one of the other sectors.
Area 5 is called the Safari Sector.  It's home to the monsters of Digimon, Pokemon, and Monster Rancher, along with a few other series.  All of these creatures are allowed in World's End proper, but this is for the monsters that want to roam free or do not have a tamer yet.  There are a three ranches currently, but no specific owners.
Area 6 is called the Far Sector.  The sector houses the Slimes of the Far Far Range, as well as a portal taking you back to that world.  This is one of the only areas to house four ranches, run by Beatrix LeBeau, Mochi Miles, Ogden Ortiz and Viktor Humphries, respectively.
Area 7 is called the Huaguo Sector.  This area was maded specifically for Sun Wukong, his clan and his allies.  Asena also lives in the area with her wolf pack.  Unlike most sectors, this area allows visitors from World's End without a Ranger present.  The known outposts are Sun's Temple, Blue Wolf Homestead and The Portal Tree, the last of which leads to the realm of Deities, Angels and Demons from Mythology around the world.  (This realm will only be mentioned as only a select few can actually go into it.  There is also a portal in the city proper, but it's hidden to keep people from going in without knowing it.)
Area 8 is called Mustang Sector.  As the title implies, the sector is home to horses of all kinds and also home to where the hardier breeds of cattle, sheep and other farm animals.  Striker, along with his partners, have a ranch in the area called Bullet Ranch.
And finally Area 9 is called Royal Sector.  This is the main base of operations for the Range. It contains the main elevator and barracks for the Rangers as well as the Control Tower.  While it is not a "zoo", it does contain aspects of a zoo so that visitors can learn about different species living in the Range.  The sector also contains a large village, home to those from different fandoms that prefer living in the woods compared to a city, and a griffin hatchery.
Point 3:  The Apartments
The Apartments, also known as the Complex, is the largest building in World's End and houses everyone living in the city.  The building also contains most of the Government Offices, minus the Postal Service, which is handled off site. Well over 10,000 doors each lead to their own mini pocket dimension that forms into the ideal space for each tenant. All tenants have a key card that they can use in the elevators to get to specific floors, including a common area for breakfast, reading and other social activities.  The key card also allows for visiting friends on different floors. Any changes usually need to be approved by Dark and her team. By changes, she usually means moving to another floor, adding more rooms due to growing families/new roommates, etc. Rent is handled differently depending on the tenant.  All of this is in a dimension that Dark essentially made herself, so money is of little need to her.  BUT.  She does need to pay her workers.  So if Rent is handled with money, anything she gets usually goes to those who are working for her in any capacity.  Another way Rent is handled is doing favors for her (nothing sexual, that is the QUICKEST way of getting kicked out to the Range for a month).  Many of her military teams do missions and as payment live in the complex (they obviously get paid enough to buy food and other amenities but Rent is not required in this case). Utilities come free.  The complex itself handles water, internet/cable, electricity, and gas if needed. Not a bad place to live. Point 4:  The Academy If there are going to be kid characters around, obviously there needs to be some kind of education system.  That's where the Academy comes in. Run by one of Dark's right hand men, Reign and Ms. Toriel Dreemurr, The Academy is pre school up until senior of college.  While the students for the most part study the same topics and classes, there are a few other classes that specialize in other fields.  Let's take Judai Yuuki as an example!  In his original world, his classes mainly consisted of Duel Monsters.   In the Academy, he can still take those classes, while also taking more normal classes with students from other worlds. The campus itself has multiple buildings and features, such as a sports field, ice rink, library, large cafeteria, a large assembly hall and playgrounds for the younger students among other things. Dorms are, because of the Apartments, not needed. Students are allowed to room with each other (ex. Lloyd Garmadon is roommates with Mike Chilton) and are given access to school resources even off campus. Dark makes sure the kids in her charge don't get any special treatment.  She may practically run World's End but she's not raising any spoiled kiddos.  They get detention for acting out like everyone else.
And that's most of the background info that I feel would be most important to know!  If you have any addition questions, feel free to drop an ask.

Hi, I love your blog! Can I request a cake, if you’re still doing them? It’s fine if you’re not though.
If you are, can you do it for a boy? I’m generally considered tall (I’m 5’7”) and I have really curly brown hair with green eyes and really pale skin. I’m Irish-American and I’m an Aries. My hobbies are; photography, reading thriller or historical fiction novels, writing fanfiction, and listening to music (specifically punk rock or really obnoxiously loud Irish rock). I’m quite shy when it comes to new situations or places and I have an anxiety disorder, so I’m usually quite anxious and generally considered quiet (which makes my music choices ironic). Before people get to know me, people think I’m a b*tch or that I’m cold because I tend to stick with the same people and not generally talk to others unless I’m forced. Even my friends have said they thought I was mean before they actually met me. I can be pessimistic at times, but I care about the people I’m really close with and I’ll defend them no matter the situation. I can be annoying, I overthink everything, and I am insecure about literally anything and everything about myself (from my body to my writing)
I’m generally considered one of the smarter ones in my friend group, usually my friends come to me when it comes to writing essays or having to read a book for class, since I’m good at analyzing things. I’m the friend that usually everyone tries to protect from things, from fear that I might “break” or something like that, which can be annoying but I know it means that they care. Though I would prefer that people be straight forward and honest with me instead of walk on eggshells or keep secrets, because contrary to popular belief, I can defend myself just fine. My friends say I have a hard time letting people in since I don’t want to end up hurt, so I have a tendency to keep people at arms length because I’m afraid to have my heart broken.
I don’t know if that’s enough information or if I over-shared (I have a tendency to do that), but if you are still accepting these kinds of requests, I hope this is enough.

Hello my Aries sister!!!!
Romantic Matchup
Tsukishima Kei
Tumblr media
How yall met
Ok be prepared to be shocked
But Tsukki needed a tutor
He was having a difficult time understanding the new topic they were doing in class
So the teacher recommended you as a partial tutor
At first he didn't really like you
It really wasn't anything you did
He just hated that he needed someone else's help
And he was kinda embarrassed about it
But as time went on he started to warm up to you
Some could even say he looked forward to your tutoring sessions
So when he didn't need you to teach him anymore
He tried to find excuses to hang out with you
He's just too prideful to say that he likes you and wants to hang out with you
And even though you knew that was probably the case
You didn't want to call him out like that
So you would just hang out with him whenever you could
And the bond between you two grew with every passing day
And eventually you guys started dating
What they love about you
He loves how intelligent you are
Tsukki is pretty smart himself
So if he thinks that your smart
Bb you're a genius
And although he resented your smarts when he first met you
He's come to realize it's one of your most admirable traits
He loves how you care so deeply for your loved ones
He knows you would do anything and everything for him
But he also knows you would do the same thing when it comes to any of your friends and family
Like he's literally seen you telling off somebody for picking on one of your friends
He made a mental note to be careful who he picks on that day
He loves how straightforward you are
Ok so this is Tsukki were talking about
He doesn't really like overcomplicated people or people he can't understand
And you are anything but that
Tsukki can read you like a book
Maybe its because hes spent a lot of time with you
Maybe it's because he pays more attention to you than other people
The world may never know
What you love about them
You love how he doesnt try to “protect you”
Now don't get me wrong
Tsukki would take a bullet for you if it ever came down to it
But he knows for the most part you can take care of yourself
So unless you specifically ask for help hell leave you be
You love that he understands your limitations
Tsukki knows you have anxiety
So he tries to make social exchanges as comfortable as possible
If he notices that your uncomfortable talking to someone
He’ll swoop in and remove you from the situation
However...
He tries to get you to step out of your comfort zone from time to time
He knows just as well as you do that being social is just apart of life
And he doesn't want you do always be dependent on him when it comes to being social
So he just gives you little nudges
Until eventually its like your anxiety never even existed
Favorite things to do together
STUDY DATES!!!!!!
Ahem anyways
Mans loves to have a good study date with you
It's really just you two doing homework and reading together
But he loves those little intimate moments with you
Late night walks
You guys take late night walks ALL the time
Once again it's nothing more than just walking round and listening to music
But Tsukki finds comfort in your presence during these times
Random Hc
The team was very very shocked when they found out you were Tsukkis gf
Like Tsukki + a relationship = error
Definitely got bombarded with questions when you met the team
He keeps some of the photos you've taken in a little box in his room
He proofreads all of your fanfics
One time it was your turn to pick the music for a study date
He was very shocked when hard core irish rock started playing…
When you guys first met there were a lot of moments when you just stared at eachother like
Because you didn't know how to talk to each other
Sometimes he acts like he doesn't know something just so he can be around you
Astrology
Aries + Libra
Compatibility 62%
However difficult it might be to reconcile these two natures, remember that this is a primal opposition that represents partners by signification.
Aries and Libra are the couple of the zodiac, as much as any other opposing signs, for they are each other’s seventh house, house of relationships.
Even more so if we acknowledge the fact that Libra is the sign of relationships in general.
Any problem they might have with each other is something to be worked on, because it shows what their personal problem with any relationship is.
When they are madly attracted to each other and fall in love, there is almost nothing that could separate them, no matter the differences.
Wouldn’t we all like to find the middle ground with our loved one? They need to work on their bond, that’s a fact, but their relationship is a promise of a perfect fit of two souls meant to be together.
Friendship Matchup
Tendou Satori
Tumblr media
How yall met
You guys have been friends since middle school
You saw how other people treated him and you just didn't think it was right
So you befriended him!
You guys were attached at the hip all throughout middle school
Then he left for highschool while you stayed in middle school
Then when it was your turn to go to high school you had went to karasuno
So you guys lost touch
But then one day you saw a familiar head of red hair at one of your boyfriends matches…
It was Satori!
You were so excited to see him again that you practically sprinted over to him to reunite
He was so happy to see you again!
Ngl the entire Karasuno team was very confused on how you knew the guess monster of Shiratorizawa
Why you became friends
Like I said you saw how people treated him all throughout middle school…
So even though you were 2 years younger than him
You decided to befriend him
He was shocked by your kindness
And honestly a little hesitant
It wouldn't be the first time someone pretended to be his friend just to stab him in the back later
But for some reason he thought you were different
So he became friends with you
He was super sad when he lost contact with you :(
He always thought about how you were doing
But hey fate decided to bring you two together again
And it was like nothing changed
You both still had the same strong connection you had way back in middle school
What yall love about each other
He loves how out there you can be
Like there was a time where you two just blasted music in a park and just were dancing and vibing
He loves how your able to channel your creativity into your photography
He compliments every picture you take
Even if it's not a good one
He loves that how you look vs how you act are two totally different things
He won't lie to you you definitely have RBF Syndrome
(resting bitch face syndrome)
It almost reminds him how ushiwaka looks
But the difference is behind you rbf is a generally warm person
You love how fun Satori is!
Moments with him are always filled with laughs
Never a dull moment with that one
You love that he does not allow what others say get to him
Oh and on the days they do
Your right there to pick him back up and get him back to normal
Overall you guys love that you can depend on each other
Random Hc
Tsukki felt a little intimidated when he found out satori was your friend
Their rivalry during their game may or may not have had something to do with you…
You guys had homemade friendship bracelets as kids
And he kept his in his room even after you lost touch
Ironically enough he WILL NOT allow you to be insecure
He's like Insecurities we don't know her ❤️
Astrology
Aries + Libra
A friendship between an Aries and a Libra brings in the inherent polarity of the Zodiac itself.
The constellations of Aries and Libra lie opposite to each other in the Zodiac, at an angle of 180 degrees between them.
This polarity is displayed in their characteristic traits as well. Each sign has qualities that the other sign lacks.
Add to it the fact that Librans have a natural desire to be harmonious, and Aries and Libra form a relationship of great equilibrium.
The polarity of Aries and Libra could be described as self versus other.
But the differences go much further than that. Aries are impulsive, excitable, and willing to jump into things immediately.
Libra are indecisive, peace loving, and prefer a calm, quiet view of everything.
Star signs with opposite polarity often share a zealous relationship with each other.
In general, polar alliances turn out awesome when they are good, but rather challenging when they are bad.
Polarities could twist and knot together if the signs didn’t understand each other well.
However, Aries and Libra are a well balanced pair.
Libra are charming, well cultured, and have pleasing manners that could compensate for the brazen nature of Aries.
On the other hand, Aries are strong willed and decisive, which could compensate for the irresolute nature of Libra.
Aries could help Libra reach resolutions more easily and make them more spontaneous.
Libra could, at times, show Aries that they are not always as right as they think they are.

My retirement
Hey, all.
Boy, um, I’m sure that title is kind of a shocker, so I’ll do my best to explain myself.  And stop me if you’ve heard this story before (or should I say, these stories before).
I created a surplus of materials and examples to go by when making a Gravity Falls/Wendy and Dipper story in the same fashion that I do.  But in my heart of hearts, I can tell you all that the souls of these stories, the thing that everyone seems to tell me makes them so real, are based upon three real people.
I grew up a lot like Dipper did.  I was a smart kid, but not that smart.  I was the one everyone pointed at as a freak.  The weirdo of the class.  The smelly kid.  I had friends; not a lot of them, but in most cases, time and distance separated us, or I drove them away of my own accord.  I won’t excuse it by saying I was different; a lot of my pain I caused myself.  I would be lying if I said I had proper guidance as well.  I couldn’t tell you how many regrets I have.
But as I got older, I met someone special; someone different.  They didn’t treat me the same as everyone else.  I couldn’t tell you if it was out of pity, or perhaps, they were able to see something that other people couldn’t.  And I appreciated it.  To be honest, I loved them for that.
“Love,” I know, is a really strong word.  It’s probably the most overused and misused word presented by most of civilization, and the majority of mass media.  To me, love means to cherish, to want to protect, to wish no harm upon, and if possible, take the blunt of any blow wishing to do so.
I like a lot of people.  I love a whole lot less, if that makes sense.
Even as I write this, I do not claim for this to be the correct way of looking at things; I can only tell you the way I saw things at the time.
Such is why I chose to hide my true feelings for the longest time.  For all of the healing and solace this person gave to me, the very last thing I wanted for them was to be the monster’s mate.  Unfortunately, my private life wasn’t too much better.  It was like there was no safe haven I could provide.
Above all things, I didn’t want them to hate me for that.
Then, as always, fate played its hand.  The good spark in my life was whisked away and I was forced to deal the rest of the world.  But after the lot of a new series of battles and worries, something amazing happened.  That little spark was reintroduced into my life.
But I was still afraid; afraid of the new monsters that would use this person to try to hurt me; afraid of a home life that wouldn’t accept them with open arms.  I wanted to get closer so very much, but kept them at a safe distance.
That is, until fate struck again.
Pinned up against the wall, at the very last moment I’d believed I’d have with said person, I confessed everything.
Kinda makes you think of a certain two dorks locked in an underground bunker, doesn’t it?
They say with age, comes wisdom, and upon looking back, I understand my youthful folly.  I shouldn’t have lied everything at their feet and expect a positive response.  They were shocked by my admission, as they had their own feelings and hopes and dreams and heart’s desires.
I believed, because of my fear, I was too late.  If I were honest from the beginning, maybe, it might have made a difference.
Despite of the distance and my own hardships, I tried my best to stay in touch with my friend.  A lot of times, it was for the better.  And a ton of times, it made things a jillion times worse.  And I’ll admit; it was my fault.  I let my own loneliness get the best of me.  The very last thing I ever wanted to do was to creep someone out.  Maybe that’s why it bugs me so much when someone jokingly says that about poor Dipper.
In the future, I would apologize for reaching out, only to have a welcome hand on my shoulder in return.  “I’m really glad you did.”
As time passed, we did grow closer; not always in the ways I hoped, but I’d be fibbing if I said I didn’t enjoy it.  We were constant valentines.  They were my first real date; my first real kiss. I’d have calls waiting for me instead of me doing the chasing.  For the first time in a very long time, I thought things were getting better.
But once again, fate would have its way...
Even after all these years, I question: how is it that upon telling a loved one that you must part ways (again), they become so upset that they strike you and demand why things are the way they are, if they do not care?
(For the record, kids.  You should NEVER let a S.O. hit you no matter what.  After all, don’t want to leave a bad example on the way out)
Part of me will always wonder if this is what made things sour between us; that eventually, I became another person that would always let them down, regardless if it were my fault or not.
Little did I know that behind their mild exterior, lived a wild heart that craved adventure and excitement.  A group of rowdy and unpredictable friends were more than eager to help scratch that itch.  I would be told incredible tales of mischief and wonder and mayhem.  And if I were honest, I would say part of me was jealous.  I wished it was just us having the adventures. I wish we could have spend the day together at an arcade.  Or a carnival.
I’ll say something else I never admitted before.  This person has told me countless times in our lives that I was their hero.  The truth is that there were several times in my life were I considered them my hero.  They were brave and independent and smart-on-their-feet and pretty much everything I wasn’t but wanted to be.
And beneath all that, there was a person who was embarrassed to be sensitive and “weak” and wanted to cry.  At that time, I cherished that person more than anything in this world.
Then, I heard about the other stories: the “close-calls.”  And that led me to believe that there would come a time where my loved one would go off on one of these wild adventures and never come back.
I wasn’t too far off.  I’ll spare you all the rest of the details.
As I said earlier, I like a lot of people, but I love even fewer.  So, it was a really long time before I could feel the same way about someone as I did before.  In the middle of all of this, I accidentally stumbled upon a show on cable called Gravity Falls, and found a kindred spirit with the male lead, Dipper Pines.
Even more so, I saw parallel lines between my personal plight and that involving Dipper and his crush, Wendy.  And while Wendy shares the same adventurous appetite as my loved one, that’s pretty much where their similarities end.
And poor Dipper, man.  Oh, the internet was just brutal to that kid.  “Robbie is the victim?”  Get outta here with that garbage.  It was the same crap I’ve heard half my life.
As I explored the GF fandom, I noticed a lot of the best Wendy/Dipper works came from fanfiction. (Thanks google!)  And I found my inspiration for stories of my own.  I was able to relate my hopes, my dreams, my fears, my doubts; bits and pieces of my real life, even if they are grossly exaggerated.  (so, no fighting ghosts, haunted mansions, or cursed arcades for me, I’m afraid)
To my surprise, the first batch of stories received a ton of feedback.  Lots of people cheered my interpretation of Wendy and Dipper, and what I hoped they’d evolve into.  (I’d give myself a 70% on that estimate)
Did all of these viewers, reviewers, and rebloggers share the same view of the world; about love as I did?
About two years in, little did I know I would get another surprise.  I would get a Dipper of my very own.
I wasn’t looking for love. Honest.  But upon new experiences and meeting new people, I discovered someone - a special speck of wonder - that became enamored with me.  I didn’t notice it at first.  I still find it odd that someone can look or think of me in such a way.
But I remember what happened the last time I hesitated.  I always said that in the slim chance I would ever get a second chance, I wouldn’t make the same mistakes twice.
I kept my word and enjoyed the best years of my life.
I made up a lot of lost time with an adorable hipster with a similar spirit to Wendy.  An old soul, they loved retro culture as a whole: the movies, the music, even the video games.  Their literary tastes were also very similar to mine.  I couldn’t tell you the last time I had a conversation with someone about books outside of a school setting.
But at the same time, you could see Dipper’s innocence there as well.  A tough attitude hid a fragile heart. A hidden brilliance was often overshadowed by a lack of courage and self-esteem.
It was around this time that I noticed new comments on my latest stories.  People were saying that I was (inadvertently) writing a stronger and more detailed Wendy.  At first, I didn’t understand what they meant.  Then, after thinking about it, I finally got what others were noticing.
My Wendy had changed because I had changed.  Somehow, I gained a deeper insight on her character and the way she would view certain aspects of her life, I was now a Wendy myself, with a little Dipper that thought the world of me, and for this, I tried my best to make sure they would never feel the growing pains that Dipper (or a younger me, for that matter) would usually face alone.  I was their cheering section, their coach, their backup, and I encorporated all of these things into our favorite redhead.
I found it funny that the show would (periodically) use that same angle.  I only wish they would have done it as much as I did.
But as with all great things in my life, I royally screwed everything up.  And during a time of distress and turmoil, my little Dipper found something better and hitched their wagon elsewhere.
So, by now, you have to be asking, “Why are you telling us bits and pieces of your life?”  I do this because I want people to understand why I can’t do this anymore.
Don’t get me wrong.  I love writing the stories.  I also love the fact that there’s so many people that look forward to each tale, as if it was made by the real Gravity Falls team.  To me, that’s a great honor that very little can ever replace.
But at the same time, the series (and especially Wendy and Dipper) is so close to my heart, and in some cases, so indistinguishable from certain aspects of my personal life that it actually hurts.  For the record, I haven’t sat down and watched an episode of Gravity Falls since the Blu Ray box set came out, in which I listened to the commentary for a project for Wendip-Week.
Maybe it’s because I know what happens to Dipper and Wendy at the end of the series.  Maybe it’s because their fate reminds me so much of my own.  It’s a “Chicken or the Egg” question for sure.
This is why DBR3 and Serendipity took so long to finish.  At times, I had to force myself on the computer to write 1,000 words at a time.  It takes me months to do what I used to do in mere days or at most, a week.  I don’t have the strength or the enthusiasm to do it at the same pace.  And you all deserve better than that.
I need a break, guys and gals.  I need to clear my mind and find out what’s going on inside here.  For the first time in years, I have accomplished all of my Gravity Falls related goals.  Just to go down the line:
-Published a new chapter every weekday for a month straight in honor of the GF Season 2 Premiere.
-Created a few GF stories based in the first-person perspective.  One of them is one of my most popular stories.
-Delivered a DBR2 and DBR3 due to high demand.
-Shaped a two-part Wendy/Dipper story based in the same nature and context of the classic graphic novel, Scott Pilgrim.
-Wrote several extensions to Gravity Falls episodes that I had uneasy feelings about.
-Helped a fellow Tumblr user create a Wendy/Dipper themed full sized Christmas poem in less than 24 hours.
-Tried my hand at a Wendy and Mabel story just to try something different and to see if I could do it.
-Wrote and outlined a 50-page Gravity Falls comic after 3+ years of trying to get it off the ground.
That’s not really a bad resume, not counting all the contributor’s work I’ve done for other Wendip artists/writers or the essays, guides, and projects I helped Wendip-Week design.  Even if I still had the energy to keep going, what unexplored territory is there for me to explore?
So what does this mean?
Well, that’s up to you lot, isn’t it?
I would love it if the same fans that enjoyed my stories took up the reigns and show us in the Wendip/GF communities what they could do.  Lead the way with new Wendy and Dipper tales!  Make it about the past, present, or future!  Give us a new way to look at them, or present them in an undiscovered light.
And it doesn’t have to be writing, either.  Make a comic.  Draw a picture.  Heck, do a radio broadcast for all I care.  Express your minds, hearts, and soul and create with them just as I have.
(and as a side note; I hope my Deviantart friends take this to heart.  The last time I was on the site, the cute/adorable pic/X-rated pic ratio was greatly, greatly one-sided in a bad way)
A lot of people might be asking, “Well, you’re calling it quits. Why shouldn’t we?” 
Because if you believe in the messages I put into the stories or the effort we put into Wendip-Week, then aren’t those messages worth spreading?  Just because my personal life went to crap in a handbasket, it doesn’t mean the same would happen to anyone else.
A harsh lesson I learned with age is that you can do everything perfectly, or to the best of your abilities, and still fail.  The Gravity Falls team loved to instill this over Dipper time and time again.
I want to believe in something better.  Don’t you?
And who says I’m gone for good?  Maybe I’ll find a new form of inspiration and come up with an unique idea that I just can’t keep to myself,  Perhaps Gravity Falls will come back in some form and ignite enough of a fire in me to pull a comeback.
But, until then, I plan on taking a long, well-deserved break.  After all, I have a ton of missed Wendip Week submissions to catch up on.  I promised myself I wouldn’t check them out until my final story is completed.  It looks like that day is finally here.
However, it is the holiday season, and for this, I wish to leave you all with three different sources of inspiration.  Maybe it’ll help; maybe it won’t.
1.  An inspirational letter from none other than my namesake.
2.  A key word of advice from one of the only series that could stand up to Gravity Falls’ legacy.  It is a message I wish I could have learned sooner.
Tumblr media
3.  And simply because we NEED more sources of strong females (and something I wish I would have found in time for the Spider-Man essay), here is a tumblr blog dedicated to my favorite Marvel female, who IMHO is as close to an adult Wendy as we’ll get,
I wish you all a happy holiday, and hope that my announcement hasn’t dashed your holiday spirit.  I am forever honored by all those I have worked with and by those who took my nonsensical musings and elevated them to something more.
As one of my favorite bands like to close their shows with:
“It's never goodbye, It's just 'till next time."

Fic ideas
Fandoms you can find:
American Dragon: Jake Long Danny Phantom Doctor Who Firefly Gravity Falls Harry Potter Merlin Miraculous Ladybug Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja Crossovers (DP/SPN, GF/SPN, OtGW/GF/Trollhunters, Secret Quartet (DP/ML/RC9GN/ADJL), DP/RC9GN, DP/TAZ, DP/GF, DP/Merlin, DP/Lucifer, etc) And a few specifics I’ve been asked about a few times: the SQ take on various ML events, Ladybug!Jake Long & Chat Noir!Rose, an ML role reversal AU with Hawk Moth!Emilie Agreste & Mayura!Audrey Bourgeois, and a number of other musings, both crossover and non -- these include other fandoms, like ATLA and LOK
Hey, folks, since my tumblr fic masterpost was getting long, I decided to split this into a separate post (like I did my three sentence fics, random WIP scenes and snippets, and the fanart and fanfic I’ve been gifted. Most of these ideas are still close to fanfiction form because that tends to be how I plan stories. These were generated by a fic title ask game or people asking me about one idea or another; they may or may not ever be officially written out, depending on demand. (And remember: you can always find me on FFnet and the AO3!)
American Dragon: Jake Long
Fic order for the Huntsclan!Jake AU: Susan and Lao Shi / Jake and Rose / Hidden Fire / Haley / The Hunt / Shadowed Scales / True Nature / Slitted Pupils, Serpent Tongue / Rose and Jake / Contrasting Forces  / Breaking Point / Scales / Jake and Susan (the offsite version is recommended to the pieces found on tumblr, as the fic (Unbound) expands upon all segments and features new ones not posted here)
Breaking Point: [FF | AO3] Huntsclan!Jake AU. Jake finds them, finds the shop, finds the American Dragon herself, and now he doesn’t know what to do.
The Hunt: [FF | AO3] Huntsclan!Jake AU (an expansion of this three sentence fic). Jake and Rose finally have an opportunity to capture the American Dragon, and they aren’t about to let her slip through their fingers.
Hidden Fire: [FF | AO3] Huntsclan!Jake AU. Jake realizes what he is, that he has dragon powers, that he can actually become a dragon. When Rose discovers his secret, she helps him keep it from everyone else--and learn what it means.
Shadowed Scales: [FF | AO3] Huntsclan!Jake AU. Jake is captured by the dragons. He’s confident the person they send to interrogate him isn’t one of their own, merely an ally, but something this Susan says still shakes him.
True Nature: [FF | AO3] Huntsclan!Jake AU. Rose has captured the American Dragon, but it’s harder than Rose had expected to see her more as an abomination than as a girl.
Slitted Pupils, Serpent Tongue: [FF | AO3] Huntsclan!Jake AU. Jake doesn’t know anymore if he’s asking for help or trying to trick them. He doesn’t know what he wants. Nothing is as clear cut as it used to be.
Contrasting Forces: [FF | AO3] Huntsclan!Jake AU. Susan is willing to help her son, but she can’t bring herself to trust him.
Danny Phantom
Cracked Image: When Jack tries out his newest modification to the Fenton Bazooka, it works even better than he’d expected. Suddenly, nothing makes as much sense as it had.
The Best of Both Worlds: It felt a curse, but he could turn this in his favour. He was good at that. (Vlad-centric, post-accident, pre-series)
True Nature: It’s just Maddie and the caged phantom now, and she knows that sooner or later, his mask of humanity will drop and he will reveal his true nature.
Doctor Who
The Abyss Gazes Back: He’s made so many mistakes, become what he never wanted to be. (Tenth Doctor and Martha)
Firefly
Finite: She needs the others to keep from drifting away. (River-centric)
Gravity Falls
Restoration: Dipper thought it was the end of everything, that it was over. He was wrong.
Harry Potter
Silvered: Dying changes your perspective about some things.
Merlin
Of Course He is: Of course Merlin is out gathering herbs. Of course he’s at the tavern again. Of course he got himself stabbed with a cursed dagger--wait, what?
Old Magic: Gwen goes to Gaius to ask for help controlling magic on Morgana’s behalf--and discovers another magic user hiding in plain sight.
Miraculous Ladybug
Lucky Charms: Alya makes some lucky charms for her sisters. The idea spreads.
Seven Lights in the Window: There are seven lights in the window—and they’re being extinguished, one by one, as the heroes fall and the kwami are lost.
Randy Cunningham:9th Grade Ninja
Fever Dream: Debbie can’t remember much about writing the article, but its allegations.... There’s a sickening familiarity to the whole idea.
Danny Phantom/Supernatural (SuperPhantom)
What You Can’t See: If Dani landed in a town with a ghost problem, she dealt with it. It was only a matter of time until she ran into the Winchesters and raised their suspicions.
Gravity Falls/Supernatural
What You See is What You Get: Dipper keeps researching, starts his own journal, and hears more and more about the mysterious Winchesters. He can’t seem to track them down--until he and Mabel run into them on a hunting trip.
Over the Garden Wall/Gravity Falls/Trollhunters
Down the Rabbit Hole: Wirt had heard a lot of stories about college, good and bad and unbelievable, but somehow he still wasn’t prepared for one of his roommate’s crazy friends to smuggle a hatchet into their dorm room. (starts with Wirt, Wendy, and Toby) (Now written out here)
Secret Quartet (DP/ML/RC9GN/ADJL)
Time Together: They fight better together, and it feels like they can handle anything this way--but what if they can’t?
Chat Noir’s betrayal | related (Danny and Adrien) / Ladybug and Danny | related
Danny Phantom/Randy Cunningham:9th Grade Ninja
Reflections sequel: The Nomicon warned him about the Sorceress, about leaving doors open. If the Land of Shadows really is part of the Ghost Zone, it’s only fair to warn Danny.
Danny Phantom/Batman
Snippet in which Danny is less subtle than he thinks he is in Gotham.
-|-
...And a few others I was asked about that are more theory than fic (in some cases because I don’t know the fandoms well enough to write it)

edit sorry this post is both long (if the readmore fails i am truly truly sorry) & longwinded im just reflecting and thinking; (another edit: u can probably just read the tl dr and get it)
anyway allow me to spin some very personally based theory here for a mo while i put off/warm my fingers up from the cold in preparation to email my therapist
so growing up i had, i think only, het ships, but i never quite had the ones you were (narratively speaking) “supposed to” have
in most media i recall when i was a kid, there were like, 2 diff structures of character romance plot arcs in media i consumed, there was the main lead and 2 best friends model, where thered be the star of the show who had outside romantic leads and the 2 best friends (who were always a boy and a girl) would have their secondary romance, OR there were ensemble shows where there was a more clear romance set up between the main boy and main girl, then side characters whod pair off in whatever ways ended up happening. in the first, see: hannah montana, the second, see: zoey 101. obv this isnt a hard rule and there were loads of exceptions but like, lets just say i tended not to care for the romances set up for the main girls in the trio models, or quite as hard for the main boy and girl in the ensembles, and in general if there was an obvious romance between two leads i either didnt care or outright hated it
basically i never liked the ships they set up for us in straight media, as a kid (namely, a girl) i liked being that “ew pink!” “i hate valentines day” sort of contrarian, but what i remember actually disliking was the predictability of it, because i clearly still shipped characters, so it wasnt /really/ that i hated romance, per se
looking back on it i think it was probably or at least to a degree more like that i hated the hetero expectation of it- i can nit pick down to more specific examples of why i disliked the main pairings (kataang, for example, i thought was weird bc katara acted like a mother/older sister figure to aang, and i didnt feel like there was romance between them at all except where it felt shoehorned in) - maybe it was also that i thought it made more sense for a main character to be with someone they clearly already spent a lot of time with and not some random new hot boy in town (i very distinctly remember shipping miley and oliver on hannah montana, and i believe that was the first time i ever read fanfiction @ age like... 11 lol) as is often the case w like these things.
theres another level to this though, which is that i notice i tended to ship characters who were more vaguely similar to each other, like, physically (ie, similar heights, or hair colors mainly) obviously this is funny now since my main pairing is johnlock which is such a physically different ship we can construct them from basic shapes and colors and theyre still recognizable as who they are, but i have some thoughts about this- but i think there might be two interesting things about this again in retrospect
first of all, this sounds silly ik, but shipping the vaguely similar ones as a child’s way of queering heterosexuality is an interesting concept and not that difficult, like, two boys are also vaguely similar to each other in a similar way a boy and a girl with the same hair color and height might be, which is something i thought of a while ago
the other way in which this is really interesting to me now, that i think might have been more actually pertinent to myself as a trans child, is that i think i shipped the characters i did in an attempt to morph the concept of boy and girl? to find the boy counterpart to every girl??? that second one makes more sense actually. anyway, i digress
2 start off i definitely had gender feelings starting from a very young age so i think these observations ring more true than just reflections, PERHAPS
so the first thing i remember shipping, ie wanting them to be together, thinking about it an inordinate amount of time outside watching the films, even imagining them eating ice cream together in their pjs (i was NINE DHFJGghfkg) was jack sparrow & elizabeth swan from potc (basically my franchise of choice as a kid bc i never read harry potter) now this doesnt quite fit the “visually similar” thing bc actually orlando bloom looks more like kiera knightly and is prob due to them like making out in one movie, but i think this works for the “shipping as gender expression” theory, because elizabeth swan dressed up as a boy, spent most of that movie wearing boy’s clothes, etc- meanwhile jack was a wacky pirate which like hello duh i’d want to be. so i wonder if beyond the fact that they kissed and flirted, there was something to this concept of me wanting two characters to be together, meant i wanted to marry together two conceptual things happening with two characters, or absorb the cool dude and the boyish girl characters into each other to make one whole archetype for myself? i likewise shipped aang and toph (toph who, normally doesnt really have anyone to be shipped with, since she likes sokka but he has a gf) who we all know is the VERY boyish girl character, so boyish im p sure her actually being a trans dude later in life is a p decently accepted headcanon (i dont actually delve into aatla fandom though so i can only hope) 
another thing about this ship thing, is most of my ships had brown hair (like miley and oliver), just like i always have, and in certain cases the girl character would look a LOT like me (i also shipped logan and quinn on zoey 101, which to my surprise n delight actually came true later (although looking back im like... 11 yr old me is glad they made out a lot but adult me is like uhhh why were the kids on this show making out a lot? anyway thats another issue) and i def was a weirdo girl with glasses and long brown wavy hair) which sort of further fuels my feeling that this was an attempt by my brain to do 1 of 2 things, if my own involvement really was a greater motivating factor in this thing, 1. ship MYSELF with a boy (which is like def possible for my gay kinnie ass, but not quite my thesis here) or 2. morph these boy and girl counterparts by imagining them together, seeing them together, etc
for example, i realize now, when i was a kid i drew an avatar sona for myself and said sona looked an awful lot like how id imagine a katara/zuko fusion would be, and the fact that i shipped zutara (very hard lol) was what lead me down this thought path rn
i feel like even to me this concept sounds weird and far fetched but like, gem fusion made enough sense for someone to write with its clearly, usually, romantic implications and we all “get” that, so whom knows???
another thing ive noticed while writing this is for a good few of these ships you can argue the boys in them can be read gay, like jack sparrow and zuko and aang, which feels even more strongly like me trying to marry my gay boy feelings to my tomboy realities [thinking emoji]
the biggest reason i think this makes sense to me is because when i was 10 i became obsessed with the idea that this boy i was friends with and i were secretly twins separated at birth, like i was so into the concept that we looked alike, i like hoped and wished so hard for it to be true, i wished a christmas miracle would happen for fucking real and a magic door in my house would open and be his new room and itd all work out perfectly! and you might think this was a manifestation of my difficulties with my family and wishing to leave it, but in my dream world my parents were still my parents and he came to live with us- which makes me think the obsession of ME looking like this BOY was a manifestation of my gender feelings, which i think can maybe be traced to this concept of pairing a visually similar, possibly gay, brunette boy to every brunette and/or tomboyish girl
anyway. if you actually read all of this id love it if you lmk somehow (doesnt need to be a like) like this is clearly very long and strange but i hope it makes sense. i think i stop myself a lot from ever commenting on gender or theory or whatever but i am a living breathing trans person who has experienced things and i have opinions and i dont think im claiming anything destructive with this lol i think its not unusual to reflect on the way you interacted with the world as a gay/trans kid
also im obviously not saying that shipping straight things is somehow inherently queer, im not trying to retroactively claim something about straight ships, like, those two characters are still functionally straight, and i definitely also shipped probably all of them for normal shipping reasons (although, kid ones, so less “oh theres a lot of ACTUAL romantic subtext between these two” but rather “oh theyre friends and would be cute together!” (or like they kissed and i was like O: )) but im just trying to theorize about something its possible my tiny trans brain was trying to express- and who knows maybe im not the only one!
anyway i guess the TL;DR is: when i was a kid i had a lot of “unconventional” straight ships- i already observed that i eschewed the main canon pairings in kids media in what was probably my tiny baby brains rejection of hetero culture, but i also actively shipped side characters who looked like me, and also looked like each other (ie, both tall and brunette, a boy and girl counterpart of Each Other) OR characters who seemed to be a gayish boy and a tomboyish girl, and im theorizing that maybe the reason that was was my tiny trans brain wanting to gem fusion those two together because of my Gender Feelings and fuse the boy with the girl and this desire manifested in shipping therefore thinking about a lot these pairings of boy and girl counterparts

Separate Worlds Ch 2 is nearing completion! I just have 2 more plot points to get through. I can't wait for y'all to see it.
This chapter's gonna have some more comedy to offset the Stan angst from the prologue and twin separation thing later on.

Arcadian Rhythms
I’ve been working on this project for over a year now (since December 2017) and I am FINALLY ready to start rolling out weekly updates for Season 1! Arcadian Rhythms will be a long-form fan-fiction project similar in scale to what I’ve done in the past with projects like Life is Strange: All Wounds and What I Learned at SRU. Unlike previous fic projects, however, I won’t be posting chapters as soon as I write them. Instead, I will write a “season” of chapters, edit them, make revisions, and tighten them up more than I usually do with fanfic. Then, I will post every “episode” of a “season” once a week on a regular schedule. That way, folks will know, reliably, when to expect more, and they will be able to follow things week to week, or binge it in a big chunk, like a TV series. I’m aiming for each “season” to be about 10-15 “episodes” long, probably looking at three or four “seasons” in total, depending on how much I get involved.
Tumblr media
[+ Poster by @mollifiable​ +] (she’ll be helping me with character designs and story revisions)
It’s not long now. _̴____ w̨i͠ll ̛let ͝u͜s͝ go. ̛_____̸ ͠wil̸l̷ g̷ive͝ ̛u̵s̨ ̶hope҉. ͢_̷_̸___͢ ͟w̵ill şave u͝s ̶a̛ll. You should be smiling, too. Aren’t you excited? Aren’t you happy? You’re going to be free.
So, then, that will be the format. What is the story about, though? That’s…actually kind of hard to quantify, as it’s unlike anything I’ve written before. It will most closely resemble my old project What I Learned at SRU, but where that was a modern college AU featuring characters from Avatar: The Last Airbender (and eventually its sequel, Legend of Korra), Arcadian Rhythms will be a modern supernatural crime drama featuring AU adaptations of characters from multiple modern video games. Some of the more prominent games’ cast/ideas to be featured early on will be Undertale, Overwatch, Oxenfree, Life is Strange, Night in the Woods, The Last of Us, VA-11 HALL-A, and Horizon: Zero Dawn, to name a few, but many characters and ideas across multiple fandoms will be adapted to blend together into this single fictional world. To be clear, this isn’t a situation of crossing-over from their respective stories – this is a complete alternate universe. Rather than just re-telling a narrative you may already know, I’ll be incorporating pieces of that narrative and remixing them with pieces of other narratives, forming connections and plot points that tie together in ways that just don’t exist. As I’ve written over 100k words at this point, I feel I could kind of compare to the Netflix Marvel shows -- multiple stories, crossing over into one another, set within a single city, featuring adaptations of pre-existing characters. Yet you could enter the narrative without any knowledge of the original source materials.
Tumblr media
So the plot will be an original story centered around strange, supernatural events happening in a single city, weaving together and remixing different concepts and supernatural elements across many different inspirations, tying them together into one, cohesive narrative. It won’t be “well here’s the Life is Strange characters’ story, here’s the Night in the Woods characters’ story” but rather all of the characters’ stories will be interwoven together, mixing in references and elements of where you might know them from, but going in a different direction than they originally do. Most characters will be around 30 years old, with some in their early 20′s – they’ll have day jobs, they’ll have romances that couldn’t exist within their own stories (Aloy Nora and Lena ‘Tracer’ Oxton being one of the core romances, for example), they’ll be friends or rivals with one another, but they’ll all be connected by the same phenomenon going on, much like the characters in Stranger Things (only this will be more of an interwoven plot rather than separate plots conjoining). What if you haven’t played some of or any of these games? No worries – this will be an original plot. Like some of my previous work, it’s more that if you are familiar with the source material, you may pick up extra references or foreshadowing. Like What I Learned at SRU, I’ll be writing this in such a way that even someone who hasn’t played any of these games will be able to enjoy the story. But if you happen to know about some of the gritty details? That might flavor your experience differently.
Tumblr media
In terms of tone and inspiration, I’d say the stories that have inspired this project most are The Wolf Among Us, Stranger Things, and Mr. Robot, as well as a pinch of Black Mirror. The plot will revolve around a cast of characters all interconnected by supernatural goings-on in a city inspired by 80′s retro-wave aesthetics, though it will feature modern day technology (and a bit of sci-fi-fantasy stuff).
Tumblr media
As an example (skip this paragraph if you just don’t want to know anything about the plot), . . . Think of characters like Max Caulfield, Tracer, and Frisk, (and others) who all possess the ability of short-term time travel – in this world, that is still the case, but their abilities are all connected by the same phenomenon here. Think about what kind of situation the cast of games such as Undertale and Pyre are stuck in and trying to overcome. Think of the interesting things with ‘consciousness’ or ‘the Soul’ that happen in Transistor, Undertale, or Oxenfree. . . . Basically, I’ll be mixing together different supernatural elements I like from games I’ve fallen in love with, games I’ve had plot bunnies for with fanfic, but ultimately just never wrote anything about. For example, I adore many of the characters in the games featured above, but their stories felt…complete. I didn’t feel I had anything to add to them, really, nothing felt “missing.” But when recontextualized, I can express new things. If you’ve read All Wounds you saw some of this intertextual storytelling bleeding through the latter portions in particular, and I really liked this and have a strong passion for that kind of storytelling, and figured this could be a great outlet for that, where I can take my time and just have fun with it.
Tumblr media
While I did plan on All Wounds being my last fic, my life hasn’t really changed since I made that decision like I had hoped it would, and I really just need to keep writing things I can just have fun with. I am still working on the visual novel for All Wounds and do plan to finish it eventually. But this has definitely become my new passion project.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So! In the meantime! Season 1 is, at last, underway! Expect updates every Friday! You can follow this blog for updates, including artwork and music-sharing, as well as possibly more “GIF-teaser-trailers” (as my gf put it). The blog also has a lengthy playlist of tracks inspiring the story which I will add to over time. I recommend this track as a starting point to set the tone. I’ve also been curating a playlist for inspiration on YouTube. Thanks again for the support folks have given me over my strange fanfiction projects. I have a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach that this could be a fitting culmination of everything I’ve learned over the past 15 years of writing fic – if I can pull it off – while simultaneously being an expression of my passion for my favorite medium and the steps it has taken in recent years under the direction of passionate developers.

Hey im a lesbian w a beautiful sunshiney gf but lesbians (and women full stop tbh) im fandom tend to be incredibly under appreciated on this hell site, was wondering if you could maybe do/find/acquire/harvest some headcanons about katherine/sarah or any miscellaneous newsie sapphics? esp them being appreciated and validated by the newsies, would mean the world and i love ur blog thank you~h
Oh dude heck yeah!! I totally agree, women are definitely underappreciated in fandom. (Not throwing shade at the DEH fandom, buttttttt...🐸☕) I will gladly give you some Sarah/Katherine headcanons!- (i'm gonna make this modern au just bc I'm in the mood but if you want some canon era, let me know!)- Alright so Sarah loves tea. Like, so freaking much. She hoards teabags. Dave literally found a stash of them under her bed?? He thinks she may need an intervention???- Kath lives and breathes coffee. I mean, she's a writer, she has to. - So they first met at a Starbucks where Kath was working because, while being a writer is great, it doesn't always pay the bills- Katherine is taken aback by this ??? Girl??? She's??? Gorgeous???- Kath literally switches places with Specs (her coworker) just so she can serve Sarah bc she's a Gay Nerd(tm)- Sarah orders tea- Kath just sputters out, "How can you order tea at a coffee shop?"- And Sarah's like, "I love tea, and I hate coffee."- And Kath is just like, "How do you live without coffee??"- Sarah shrugs and kinda blushes and Katherine is just thinking 'Oh no, I'm gay'- She gives Sarah her tea and that's that- As soon as she gets home, she texts her Best Pal Jack, and is like, "I MET A CUTE GIRL, WHAT DO I DO?"- And Jack is like "flirt!!"- And Katherine is just like, "If you expect me to flirt anything like the way /you/ flirt, I've got no hope. Besides, she was just a customer at Starbucks, who knows if I'll see her again?"- And Jack (now slightly offended) asks if she get Cute Girl's name- And Kath is like, "Of course, I wrote it on her cup, Sarah Jacobs."- And Jack nearly drops his phone- He calls Kath and is like, "You're never gonna believe me, but I know a Sarah Jacobs."- And Katherine is like, "Well, it's not an uncommon name, is it?"- And Jack is like, "I guess, but you know my pal, Davey? His sister's name is Sarah. And she's gay."- And that is how Jack throws a huge party and invites both Sarah and Katherine just so he can play matchmaker- And when I say huge, I mean huge- Loads of people are invited, it's while Medda is out of town, it's a huge deal- Just so romance can blossom- bc Jack is a hopeless romantic - at first, Kath doesn't see Sarah anywhere. Plus, it's crowded, it's loud, it's sweaty - she'd rather be at home, cuddled up in her blankets, saying she's going to write but instead watching Netflix- After a while of desperately trying to find a Sarah, Kath needs a breather and goes out on the porch- And There She Is- Sarah is sitting there with a big piece of paper rolled out on the concrete- And Kath is just like !!!!- She timidly sits down next to her and is like, "Sarah, right?"- And Sarah kinda gasps and is like, "barista?"- And Kath chuckles, "You can call me Katherine. What are you doing?"- Sarah's eyes just light up and her shy demeanor is Gone and she explains that she's mapping constellations- Sarah is super into astrology- They spend the rest of the evening on the porch, talking about stars- Eventually, the party ends, they trade numbers and go their separate ways- As soon as Sarah gets home, she texts Kath and asks what her birthday is. Once she gets a response, she looks up if their signs are compatible- They are(Also, @thestoryweneededtowrite writes really good newsbian fanfiction!!)
