Trans Dipper headcanons: why does he wear a shirt to the pool, HUH?!?!!!!?;?!!!?! 🤨🤨🤨🤔🤔🤔🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️⚧️⚧️⚧️⚧️

Me: but why does he wear *shoes* to the pool

[picturejasper20]

One thing i don't fully understand is why ¨The Deep End¨ episode is cited as one of those occasions Dipper had to give up things for Mabel (even in the show itself) when in reality the episode ends with Wendy also getting fired from the pool job and Mabel is the one who won't probably be able to see Mermando again?

Like in this case Dipper would be the one that gets the happier ending because he still gets to hang out with Wendy and Mabel has to say goodbye to someone who liked her back and can only learn from him in through bottle messages.

have the biggest soft spot for when ppl depict bill cipher praying and/or pleading to the axolotl cus from what we know that is literally just god. and it's so humbling too since the image that we get from bill (and the one he paints himself as) is that he's all powerful, all seeing, all knowing and to see him cower under actual GOD is just unbelievably human and degrading. bcus even the most prideful will be stripped of their ego once faced with the utter truth

hi, this is the dipreblogs person on my main blog- there’s some kind of symbolism in dipper being unable to hear his deadname. Like. People who cannot accept change are impure, and their impurity has transcribed itself in word form.

But you cannot hear that which is unclean.

Can you tell I’m crazy ab this show like. What if instead of a name, he heard static? Or perhaps a very low, hum? Would it hurt, or feel like nothing at all? Would it erase itself from his very mind? Could not even he recall? Does any mention bounces right off, like he never heard it?

OK OH MY GOSH YOU ARE ON MY BRAINWAVE TODAY!!

At first I only did this because finding a deadname for Dipper hurt, because I’ve gone by many names in my time and even the ones I’ve grown fond of hurt sometimes. I personally don’t mind my birth name but sometimes… yikes.

So, it spawned from that, and I figured with (spoilers so I can’t say just yet) he would only hear static, like radio static, because he wasn’t hearing what’s his name. This also ties in with the fact I’m making Fae cannon, because it shows that his deadname is no longer his name, therefore he will not respond to it.

I feel like the longer he goes without that name, the less he remembers it, like he can hear it when it’s used for other people but not when it’s for him, so he slowly forgets that he even had a different name to begin with. Maybe at first it hurts that he lost something he’s had since birth, almost like if he lost his sister, but then he realizes it’s like the umbilical cord, it had to be released.

And yes, I feel like the more eldrich the twins get the less likely they are to hear impurity, as you so aptly put it, or lies. Since Mabel is able to See people’s emotions, she can tell when something is genuine, or pure, and what isn’t, and selectively chooses who she interacts with based on that. The same with Dipper, he Knows people, he can tell when someone is lying, and why, if it’s fear or hate or something else.

But it also adds a layer, Dipper is scared because he Knows everything but the name he was born with, can he forget other things, like his morals? It’s why him and Mabel never separate, they keep each other sane.

But yes thank you for the ask bc I had this exact idea and you put it into words!! Thank you!!

the thing about dippers ‘sacrifices’ for mabel is theyre usually not actually sacrifices

- mabel has something good naturally happen (winning waddles, growing an extra mm)

- dippers interests conflict with that (robbie and wendy dating, hes insecure about his own height)

- dipper cant accept this so he uses unnatural means to try and gain control over the situation

- dipper has to deal with the fact he cant control every detail (a continuous theme in his character arc that also appears in double dipper)

- dipper learns his lesson and restores things to the way they were which is then interpreted as a sacrifice despite the fact that the outcome is what should have naturally happened
