i had an idea but idk its a little out there. dipper is smart, but i was like him once and i think he’d get burnt out fast. mabel has been shown to be smarter than she lets on, as well as curious and interested in the strange and unusual.
relativity falls where mabel fell into the portal and dipper had to clean up and run the shack. mabel would adventure around space & time, surprisingly making lots of friends. theres a little short comic about how mabel went to the mabel dimension and allied with them to defeat evil mabel, so i think she’d be really good at making allies wherever she goes. also i’d really like to see mabel jumping over some frog dude as she runs from the time police.
dipper would be stuck at home, trying so hard to bring her back, while running the mystery shack, trying to balance all of these things and it overwhelms him to the point where he becomes a shut in, and nearly like a cryptid or urban legend he’d read about.
also your art is so gorgeous and cozy!!! i love it so much :D

I've seen so many people look at Dipper and go, oh he'll definitely be making a Journal in the future, but... Mabel already made a Journal.
Her scrapbook is just a slightly unconventional Mabel version of Ford's Journal.
Anyway, in this ted talk we'll be discussing how in the Relativity Falls AU, Mabel should be the one going into the portal, not Dipper

Relativity Falls au but instead of the journal having Dippers birth mark or something, it has a hand print with only 4 fingers since Dipper and Mabel are only drawn with 4 fingers
Great-aunt May (Mabel) always wears gloves or something, and when the Stans ask her about it she explains how she lost her pinkies in a craft-related accident with proof of a scar on each hand (faked of course) so they’re not suspicious of her
Ford thinks the journal is the coolest thing because the author has weird hands like him (Mabel is immediately reminded of Dipper when seeing Ford at the beginning of the summer)
When we get to the Not What He (she) Seems episode, they find news clippings of someone with the initials of MP dying in some car accident where foul play is suspected, then another clipping of a “homeless woman at large” with a picture of Grauntie May, who’s missing the scars on her hands
Stan trusts her and doesn’t press the button, someone comes through the portal…
A four fingered man places his hand on the journal, finger splaying over the decorations in a perfect match. Dipper is revealed as the author, right before he promptly gets into a fight with Mabel, before realizing there are children present
Stan thinks it’s cool that Dipper is missing a finger when they shake hands, probably saying something about how Dipper and Ford could make a pair of normal hands together.
Ford freaks out because he’s related to the author of the journals, and Dipper thinks that Ford’s extra fingers are fascinating

Presenting: The Autism Twins
Tumblr media
My silly Relativity Falls designs. In all seriousness, I really love the idea of Relativity Falls to explore how Mabel and Dipper's relationship could be changed by stress and a level of estrangement.
My idea for how Dipper gets mixed up with the portal is different than it is for the Stans since I don't think there'd be as much animosity between the Mays.
TW for suicidal ideation below the cut
Like the Stans, and like in Canon, Mabel and Dipper were super close as kids and throughout high school. However, we know that Dipper couldn't wait to be an adult and Mabel was clinging onto childhood, and this is what caused the rift between the two.
Dipper, just like Ford, is scouted by a prestigious school, and has his display accidentally sabotaged by Mabel. She feels super guilty and immediately comes clean to Dipper, who tries to fix it, but can't. Whe their parents catch word of this, they immediately begin pressuring Mabel into ways of making money, despite Dipper's protests.
Mabel makes the decision to leave on her own, rather than being kicked out, and travels the country selling whatever she can. Unlike Stan, Mabel is very successful with her work, but is manipulated into giving others her money for whatever reasons.
Meanwhile, Dipper goes through college and eventually moves to Gravity Falls. I've got a number of candidates lined up as Fiddleford, mainly Pacifica, Wendy, and Candy. Regardless, Dipper discovers Gideon Gleeful, Chaos Demon (probably). Anyway, Gideon gives Dipper plentiful knowledge, and everything that goes down between Dipper, his assistant, and Gideon is the same as Ford, Fiddleford, and Bill.
Eventually, after totally isolating himself, Dipper is at his breaking point and reaches out to Mabel, who very quickly shows up. The two talk for a while, until Dipper shows her his notebooks. Dipper's behavior makes Mabel anxious, and his poor word choice convinces her that Dipper's request to her is to carry out a suicide. Mabel refuses Dipper's offer and lashes out at him. She becomes increasingly agitated and accidentally turns on the portal.
Being closer to it than Dipper, it begins dragging her to it, almost sending her through. Before it can, Dipper trades places with her, and is sucked into the portal instead.
Mabel is left alone and confused in Dipper's lab, waiting for several hour for him to come back. When he doesn't, she has a mental breakdown and reads through all of Dipper's notes and journals. Just like Stan, she devotes the next 30 years to getting her brother back while she pretends to be him.

“This is so much bigger than I imagined, Dipper. I thought I could keep the boys safe from the mysteries of Gravity Falls but now because of me, they’re both wrapped up in this thing with Bill Cipher and it- it’s just not fair. Stan and Ford are children, they shouldn’t have to deal with this.”

see relativity falls is so interesting to me because like. i don't think mabel would get kicked out of the house. i don't think dipper would Let that happen even if it came to that point. their #1 thing is their DEVOTION to each other. dipper got pushed into the portal on accident but he was always trying to make his way back (tho i would love to explore an au in which there are circumstances that drive him to actually punch mabel) and mabel was always trying to bring him back. they didn't fight when dipper came back.
i think the conflict would have to arise from stan and ford and bill

There are two wolves inside me. One wolf wants to just let people have their fun, believing what they want. The other is feral and wants to tear apart the internet to source and direct link to every interview where Alex Hirsch says that Dipper is him as a child (with traits exaggerated), Mabel is his twin sister Ariel as a child (with traits exaggerated), Stan is their grandpa Stan (with traits exaggerated), and the show's premise is both a love letter to the childhood he spent with his sister and also, more specifically, the summers they would spend at their great-aunt's cabin, where they would be bored but required to keep daily journals and his would be stories he made up about encountering creatures and oddities in the woods around them. And this is all because the feral wolf is going to go from feral to savage if it sees one more post suggesting the actual core pillar of the show is Bill/Ford, rather than the found family (Alex Hirsch's own words!) the show is actually about, and the three based-on-real-people-including-Alex-himself characters in the middle of it.
#like i literally saw someone say Dipper and Mabel were just there to be viewpoint vessels and i was like#ARE YOU KIDDING ME#like did you know Dipper is obsessed with conspiracies bc Alex himself was to the point of debilitating anxiety#at the same time Ariel was having her boy band phase? oh look coinky-dink Mabel likes a boy band!#and gets a pet pig! guess what else? Ariel was so obsessed with pigs as a kid she had a WHOLE WALL OF PIG MERCH#A&A's grandpa Stan was an avid cigar smoker but that couldn't be shown on Disney so instead he gets a raspy voice#another fun fact from the DVD commentaries: Alex & Ariel did international level improv on high school#but the championship team only extended the offer to him. Ariel overheard and burst into tears#Alex IMMEDIATELY rejected the offer tho bc he wouldn't do it w/o his sister#sure sounds like Dip & Mabes to me! bc they are! (also inspired the conflict over Ford's apprenticeship!)#anyway i just. bill/ford is so funny but to say the pillar of the show is abt them? THEM???#FORD WASN'T EVEN IN THE PLANS ORIGINALLY . . . AND WHEN HE WAS HE WAS A HIPPIE . . .#AND THE CIPHER WHEEL ORIGINALLY MEANT NOTHING . . .#AND WHEN ALEX WAS HIRED BY DISNEY HE REMEMBERS THEM SAYING#''we'll let you make your show about you & your sister & your grandpa if . . .''#IT'S ABT HIM HIS SISTER AND HIS GRANDPA!!!!#(i guess he's just closer to his grandpa than his grauntie lol sorry grauntie . . . lois i think her name was. is?)#anyway i'm done now#gravity falls

PLEASE SHOW US AUTHOR MABEL FROM LEVITY RISES PLEASE
Okay!
Tumblr media
My inbox is flooded with messages like these, fun fact- when I started the designs I actually didn't know what to do with her- BUT NOW IK (at least some) OF WHAT I WANNA DO WITH HER.
Still trying to figure out what I wanna do with the design and lore of the bill replacement though- Still a heavy wip!
MABEL ⇆ STANFORD
Tumblr media
Mabel takes the role of Stanford in this au! Fun loving and enthusiastic since birth, Mabel was once a budding young photographer who eventually found her way as a newspaper journalist for Levity Rises. She quickly began to notice some of the strange things happening in the town, taking pictures and objects to create her own scrapbooks. She didn't think much of it at the time, but she was certain her brother would've liked the scrapbooks. Maybe if she'd done something earlier, she wouldn't have accidentally ended up in another dimension for 30 years- oh well- at least she knows how to kick ass across 7 different dimensions. Not sure how the identity theft is gonna work yet-
OK REFRESHER ON THE OLD CAST and added Grauntie Mabel too! One of my friends suggested to call Ford 'Sixer' the same way Dipper is named, so that's what's gonna happen going forward just cause it's a cool lil detail (plus in this au Six hides his hands in a similar way to Dipper hiding his birthmark so I think it works). Notes as per usual :]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also yeah, I put my ussy into that logo, you're gonna see it a bit
Tumblr media
I'll still keep thinking of stuff for this au! I have a few screenshot edits planned :D

Could you draw that "I trust you" scene with Mabel and Stan but with the relativity AU? (The stan twins and pine twins swap ages au)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
OF COURSE, I WILL GLADLY DRAW THEM!!! 💥💥💥
I’m gonna post a long winded thesis about my thoughts on this AU, my take on the AU, and two additional arts under the cut because ooooh boy it’s a tad bit long lol. Also, please please forgive the formatting, I’m writing this all on the fly and it’s extremely disjointed, sorry- 💥
I know there’s the ‘canon’ Relativity AU designs and character dynamics, however I don’t really like them that much ngl. I feel like it mostly just ends up with ‘Mabel and Dipper get switched with Stan and Ford with no nuances once so ever’ and that BLOWS!!! There’s so much potential there and no one is playing with it!! YOU GUYS DON’T EVEN HAVE MABEL PRETENDING TO BE DIPPER, WHATS THE POINT????
Not only that but I feel like making Dipper and Mabel’s dynamic just Ford and Stan’s when they’re adults is a HUGE simplification of their characters. Like, Mabel and Dipper fight, but they don’t fight like Stan and Ford, they’re not as hard headed and stubborn. Mabel would commit some crimes yes, but I don’t believe she would get into some of the heavy shit Stan had in his past. I refuse to believe Mr. Dipper ‘Undiagnosed Anxiety Disorder’ Pines would fall for Bill’s flattery as easily as Ford did.
The Pines Twins are very different from the Mystery Twins. Mabel and Dipper didn’t grow up with a father constantly comparing the two and pinning them against each other, outright telling one kid they’ll always be a failure while the other is going to have the burden of making their family rich. They never had that tension. They wouldn’t be walking on eggshells around eachother as adults.
I know that makes the concept sound boring to some, ‘Where’s the fun in the AU if you take away the sibling fighting’. You cowards, you can still have it, young Stan and Ford are RIGHT THERE. During the second half of the show when Dipper comes back through the portal, instead of having the older set of twins, something that doesn’t male sense with their characters, have a building tension that’s going to explode soon and keep it between Stan and Ford, don’t take it away from them. If anything, I think taking away the resentment and anger growing between the two and giving it to Mabel and Dipped is a butchering of all the characters.
Sure that means some of the episodes would have to change or be completely erased, but that’s fine!!! Make up some new ones!!! Get silly with it!!!
Mabel and Dipper talk about feelings, Stan and Ford don’t. Mabel and Dipper can’t stay mad at each other, Stan and Ford will try and stay mad for decades because being angry is easier than being upset.
In my idea of this AU that fight at the end of Weirdmageddon HAS to be between Stan and Ford, and Stan HAS to still be the one getting his memories erased.
💥 Post Not-What-He-Seems Relativity AU Rambling Below 💥
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dipper is a paranoid man, fool him once you’re never going to fool him again. He would never in a million years ever work with Bill again. Ford however is an extremely lonely child, both he and his brother are desperate for any type of positive attention. I think Bill would see him as a potential protege, especially since Ford is a ‘freak’ like he is and the kid is extremely smart for his age. He’s malleable, Bill probably thinks he could shape him uo to be the perfect lackey.
Ford, being the lonely kid he is, probably does fall for the praise initially. He craves attention and Bill pushes all the right buttons and says all the right words, tries and gains his trust even if time has proven again and again that he shouldn’t be trusting the demon.
The tension between the Stan Twins would grow after Grunkle Dipper comes back because Ford is upset that Stan didn’t listen to him (even if it was for the best that he did) and that Grunkle Dipper forgave Graunty Mabel so easily because if Ford was in those shoes he wouldn’t have. It grows more and more as Ford becomes distant and Stan tries to connect with his brother to no avail. Which, of course, comes to a boiling point when Ford says he’s going to stay in Gravity Falls and learn under Grunkle Dipper. Stan is rightfully upset. He can’t go back to New Jersey by himself. It’s always just been the two of them, he needed Ford, he couldn’t handle school or their father by himself. He can’t be alone.
Unlike Mabel who just wanted one more day of summer, Stan wishes that he wouldn’t be alone, which indirectly causes Weirdmaggendon.
Stan’s prison bubble would probably be a fake New Jersey-esc town full of a bunch of little Stans running around. Town O’ Stan. A place where no Stan is left behind.
Ford says some nice words to Stan there to get him outta there but there is still this intense tension between the two.
During the Cipher Wheel Ford is the one who tackles Stan. The two fight, whining out hurtful words neither of them mean and only stop when Bill shows up and captures them. Graunty Mabel and Grunkle Dipper run off and distract Cipher in hopes that they can keep the attention on themselves long enough that their great nephews could come up with a plan to escape.
The younger twins don’t find a way out and instead, finally, have an actual talk about their feelings, one that definitely ends up in tears as the two talk about the pressure that’s put on them or how worthless they feel. After that the boys get a rush of determination to escape when Stanley has a plan. Ford immediately hates the plan but Stan insists that they do it, in his own words, ‘Let me prove I can do something right for once.’
When Bill comes back and threatens to kill either Mabel or Dipper just for the hell of it, Ford calls out that he’d like to make a deal.
He wants to work with Bill, let Bill into his mind willingly. Bill immediately jumps on that offer. Ford is a promising young kid, perfect henchmaniac potential, not to mention it would absolutely devastate Dipper is his great nephew willingly turned to Bill’s side.
He goes into Ford’s head, revealing Stanley just in time to reveal that he was trapped, panicking as he was erased with a swift left-hook along with a kid who was happy to prove he was good for something after all.
Everyone was devastated after Weirdmaggedon of course, a child had his mind completely wiped. Stanford took it the worst, he just managed to finally break down those words that others built in his head, that he was too good for Stanley or that he didn’t need a knucklehead like him dumbing down his brain, and now his brother was gone. Just like that.
We all know what happens after this, Stan gets his memory back, everyone celebrates and the Stan twins are sent home, promising each other that they’ll never let anyone try and tear them apart ever again. Dipper and Mabel stay at the shack, after all, all they could ever want is there, where else could they possibly go?
Sorry this was… extremely rambly and long, I am extremely tired and can’t think straight I have a bunch more ideas and concepts so if anyone’s desperately wants to hear them just ask I guess, sorry you read this dumb of ass essay haha 💥

AU where Eda stayed married to Stan and ran the Mystery Shack with him. She was there when the kids first arrived. She's still Eda Clawthorne, she didn't take Stan's last name, and he didn't push it.
Eda: So, Mr. Clawthorne
Stan: it's 'Eda Pines,' actually
Eda: No it's not
Stan: Yeah, no it's not
I think Dipper would stick with 'Aunt Eda' and Mabel would call her 'Graunty Eda' but occasionally they both will just call her Eda
I think there would be a WHOLE episode surrounding Eda's owl curse, the kids tracking her down, being scared of her, thinking she was just a monster waiting to attack the family, and Stan appears at the last second, getting between Eda and the kids before anyone can get hurt, and explaining the whole thing to the kids (I didn't get super far into TOH, so I have limited information)
Eda: You kids wanna head into the woods and get me some of these magic truffles that grow near this mysterious and probably unsafe cave?
Mabel: OKAY :D *tries to dart out the door*
Dipper, grabbing her by her sweater: Stan said we're not allowed to leave work while he's gone today
Eda: What Stan doesn't know, he won't mind *hands them a basket* Truffles. Take Soos with you, he's probably a responsible adult :)
I think Ford would give her her own page in his journal:
"Eda Clawthorne, aka: The Owl Lady, aka: My sister in law. Stanley needs to stop judging me for dating a dream demon when he's just as bad having married a bird witch from an alternate dimension."
"Eda appears to have a liking for shiny metallic objects, much like a dragon, and much like my niece. She stole my pen and my watch but instead of pawning them off, she added them to some sort of nest. Stanley has informed me that unfortunately I cannot get them back until after she changes back into her normal form, so I am writing this in pencil."
"Eda has taken my journal as well due to the gold on the cover, so I will continue my notes on these napkins. This is getting increasingly annoying."

Hear me out.. Stanford Pines himself with baby fever
*heavy breathing*
Man.... man ok. Okkkkk.
So I'm imagining post-portal Ford when you two reunite. It's no secret that he'd wanted the whole marriage and kids thing with you even before. So once he comes back and finds out you're there waiting for him??? All bets are off baby he wants the full package.
You get married within the same year that he returns, and in that time he sees you interacting with Dipper and Mabel and being such a great "Grauntie" as they call you. That alone is enough to make some.. ahem... feelings rise up. Then a close family member of yours had a baby and you're invited to come visit, so of course you bring your lovely husband with you. As soon as he sees you holding that baby, rocking it on your hip and singing softly... oh. oh.
Now that you two aren't as young as you used to be its unlikely that you'll have children of your own, and that grieves him but doesn't mean his baby fever is gone. He knows you'd be such a good mother, and he wistfully pictures twin cribs taking up space in your spare room. He brings it up to you once and you both get a little misty-eyed thinking about the time and opportunities lost between you two. You can picture it so clearly, each of you holding one as you reach around each other getting ready for the day in a practiced duet. A girl with the same glasses as Ford, and a boy with the same quirked smile as you.
This angst is quickly remedied as you cheekily remind him that even though you probably won't be having a baby anytime soon, you can still try (wink wink). Mans gets a little extra touchy around this time. He's normally not a big pda fan, but when you're grocery shopping together and he comes up behind you to whisper "you look beautiful, dear" as his hands warm your lower back and stomach, who are you to complain ;)

Jealousy, Jealousy
Tumblr media

I did NOT proofread this.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Once you met Stan’s twin brother, you were absolutely smitten. Stan had known immediately, of course. You told him not ten minutes after Stanford Pines, the real one, had sent the FBI agents away.
You pulled him aside as the twins gushed over Ford, “Why is he hot? Why do I want to marry him immediately?”
Stan shook his head at you, “I knew you were into older men, [Y/N], but I thought you only have eyes for me?”
The fake hurt in his voice was amusing as you crossed your arms over your chest. You kissed his cheek before turning your attention to his biceps, giving them a strong squeeze. You laughed when he flexed.
“A big, strong man like you,” you gushed, “ugh- men like you just can’t be tied down to one woman.”
“You got that right, hot stuff.”
You and Stan had always been flirty with each other, perhaps a bit inappropriate at times, but it was strictly platonic. He had even pulled you aside once, telling you you were a cute girl, but he didn’t have the same feelings. You had laughed in his face, of course. So presumptuous, so full of himself. “I’m out of your league, babe,” you punctuated your sentence with a wink, leaving him speechless. “You wouldn’t know how to handle me.”
Now, you were all about his brother. He was more your type anyways, older and more mysterious. Stan was an open book, always speaking his mind. You appreciated the honesty, but you weren’t Stan’s type either. He preferred a the exact opposite of you.
In some twist of fate, Ford had asked you to dinner. You knew it wasn’t what you thought. It couldn’t be a date. He was simply taking you to dinner to talk over his research. When he and Stan had gotten back from their sail around the world, he had promised to show you everything over a nice meal, to thank you for all your help before they had left.
You were still excited, though, so you had dressed up. It wasn’t anything fancy. It was more casual, a dress you had found in the back of your closet you just hadn’t had the chance to wear in a while. Mabel had offered to help you get ready, that’s why you stood in the middle of Stan’s TV room.
“How do I look?” You gave a little spin in the living room. You held out your hands as you turned. “Think he’ll like it?”
Stan growled at you. A wide, flirty grin covered his face, “I don’t know about that nerd, but I’d take it off you right now if you’d let me.”
“Stan!” You chastised, your head pointing toward the kids sitting at the table behind you.
Mabel looked from you to Stan and back. She looked confused, “Grunkle Stan, she looks beautiful! Don’t make her change.”
“Yeah, Grunkle Stan,” Dipper agreed. “I think [Y/N] looks very pretty.”
You laughed at their innocence, hoping it would never go away. They were sweet kids. You loved them. Maybe, if things worked out with Ford, you could be their great aunt. Graunt? Graunty? Grauntie? You’d work out the details later.
You smiled when Ford came around the corner. He hadn’t really dressed up like you had. He wore his normal garb, but the trench coat had been forgotten. You didn’t understand how he could wear a sweater in the middle of summer. You felt over dressed.
“You ready?” You beamed, taking the outstretched, brand new, Journal 4 in your hands. You were so eager to see what he had been up to.
His hand ghosted over your shoulder, afraid to touch down as you walked by him. Your nose was already buried in the pages. “Only if you are.”
A smack and your yelp broke your concentration. You looked back at Stan who had just smacked you on the rear. He gave you a wink, “Go get ‘em, tiger!”
You didn’t notice the scowl on Ford’s face. Specifically, you didn’t notice the angry glare Ford gave his twin brother. Stan knew how Ford felt about you, yet he was still doing this?
“Stanley,” Ford had confided one night aboard the Stan O’ War II, “I think I have feelings for [Y/N].”
Stan had barely looked down at him brother who was lying on the bunk beneath him. He gave a dismissive wave, “She’s a cute one. That’s for sure.”
Now, you were sitting at dinner. You barely noticed the waiter as you and Ford chatted about his and Stan’s run-in with a giant kraken that had almost sunk their ship. You laughed with him over the story, amazed how he used his magnet gun, carefully aimed at a distant lighthouse, to pull them to safety.
“That’s amazing!” Your hand touched his. Perhaps you had too much wine, “You’re amazing.” The buzz of your phone pulled you out of the spell Ford had put you under by just being himself. “Excuse me,” you whispered as you reached into your purse. You held up your phone so he could see Stan’s name.
U 2 get married yet?
Stan. You let out a breathy laugh, “You’re brother is the most annoying person I have ever met in my life.”
Maybe we would be if you’d leave me alone.
U know you love it when I bother you.
You noticed the change in Ford’s demeanor. “You okay?”
“Of course,” he muttered as he waved the waiter down for the check. He gave you a sad smile. “It’s getting late,” he sighed as he paid the bill.
You walked back to the Shack in silence. As always, Ford held open the door for you and you snuck inside only to find Stan waiting for you. He gave you a warm smile and patted the arm of his chair for you to sit. You sat down next him, his arm slung over your shoulders.
“You two have a good time?” You smiled, but Ford didn’t. His eyes were glued to Stan’s hand squeezing your bicep.
You shuffled away from your friend to sit on the floor instead, “We had a great time, didn’t we?” You glanced over at Ford who refused to look at you.
You didn’t understand. “Yes, of course,” his tone was dry as ever. “I have work I need to do.”
A pit formed in your stomach as he disappeared. You looked up at Stan with pleading eyes. He gave you a warm, comforting smile, “Don’t get so flustered, babe. That man catches mood swings better than he catches a ball.”
“Does he like me at all?” Your words were more confident than you had expected. You sighed, “One minute, we’re laughing and have a great time. The next, he’s all cold and distant. I don’t get it. Did do something?”
You had avoided Ford for a few days after that, never even getting the chance to thank him for such a nice meal. The two of you skirted around each other. Just as things felt normal in the few moments you shared, he grew cold as soon as Stan walked into the room.
You didn’t understand it. You thought they were getting along now, only ending their sailing trip for the kids to come back for the summer. They seemed fine most days. You didn’t understand what had suddenly changed.
“Hey,” you sighed “I brought your journal back.” Ford barely acknowledged your presence in his study. It upset you. “Did I do something to piss you off?”
Ford looked up at you, shocked by your words, “What on earth are you talking about?”
“I thought we had a nice time at dinner,” you crossed your arms over your chest, closing the book he was reading. You stared at him with an unblinking gaze. “Now, you’re acting like I don’t exist. When you do speak to me, you get all quiet when Stan shows up. What’s up with that?”
He breathed in a heavy inhale. His thumb and pointer finger gripped the bridge of his nose, “I can’t be around you and not think about you and-“
“What’s shakin’, bacon?” Stan smirked as he entered the room. The atmosphere in the study was tense. “Whoa, what’s going on here?”
You crossed your arms over your chest. Ford did the same. The two of you glared at Stan. “Just say it, Stanley,” Ford huffed. “Just say she’s already with you. I’m tired of waiting for you both to just spit it out.”
“What are you talking about?” Your eyebrows furrowed. “I’m not with anyone.”
Stan snickered from beside you. “Yeesh, I forgot to tell you guys something.” You and Ford turned to Stan expectantly, “So, [Y/N], you know that little crush on Sixer you told me about last year?” You blushed, trying to hide it behind a flare. Ford’s face relaxed, stare landing on you. Crush? “Well, Ford told me he’s got a thing for you too. I thought I told you.”
“No,” you spat, “you left that little detail out.”
Ford stood from his chair. “I thought you two were seeing each other. You’re always flirting.”
You shook your head, a small smile forming on your lips. Every ounce of anger you had towards Stan vanishing, “We’re just friends.” You could see the relief on Stanford’s face. His eyes sparkled from behind his glasses. “Maybe we should give dinner a second chance.”

ik ur technically supposed 2 start w the mystery twins x2 but god fiddles is my absolute fav so i HAD 2 start with him... <3
ive swapped him w pacifica!! (i was considering swapping him w candy buuuut i put candy in a diff role lol)
me rambling abt fiddleford in my au:
in this au, he's the eccentric hillbilly kid sort of like old man mcgucket in the og series (except he's not insane and just acts like that bc he wants to)
the townsppl constantly see him meandering abt w his MASSIVE "tea cup" pig dawdles and they get into kooky situations w/ his love of building weird, pretty destructive mechs. however, nobody knows that he's secretly the (adopted) son of the northwest family and his real name is archibald augustus III northwest!
how you may ask? bc nobody recognizes him w/o the slick northwest hairstyle. bc gravity falls ppl r kiiiinda dumb, minus grauntie mabel n the mystery twins.
fiddleford frequently sneaks out of the manor and eventually bumps into stan n ford! the twins initially think he's batshit crazy but they eventually become buddies :) eventually.
ill ofc go over pacifica in more detail on her post, but she's the "old witch of northwest" and is seen rarely, if at all. she resides presumably near the northwest manor and is sometimes seen foraging for strange things, which earned her the name of the "witch"
ill prob do stan n ford next (and mayb also dipper n mabel!)
