Hey guys crazy idea but like Artemis and Apollo are Dipper and Mabel right? Right? Yeah I got carried away big time but like I think Gravity Falls + Greek Mythology is a banger idea so it's fine.
[Image description: a comic of Mabel from Gravity Falls. She looks sad at first, saying: "Whenever my crushes like me back it feels wrong."
Perking up, she says: "I guess I'm losing feelings! Time to choose a new crush!"
She looks through binoculars, and continues: "Which boy should I have a crush on? I want an epic summer romance!"
In the last panel, she's in front of the aromantic flag. She's staring blankly, saying: "What. What do you mean that's not how crushes work. What is comp-het?" End ID.]
I propose: Mabel is aromantic she just has comphet
Imagine being on the same level of nerd as Stanford Pines and just talking to him with the element symbols from the periodic table or whatever math equation you two are busy solving.
Jargon and numbers of all sorts ends up on random sticky notes all around the mystery shack for either of you to find.
The only reason why the rest of the Pines family even begin to know what that is was from Mabel's incessant theorizing upon seeing that one time her Grunkle Ford turned into a tomato because of your sticky note.
"Solve 9x - 7i > 3(3x - 7u)"
Didn't even take the researcher a minute before he realized what it is, his speedy thought process immediately crashing and burning from the emotional overload.
It wasn't subtle at all which notes were from who either. All of Ford's sticky notes were red, yours were [favorite color]. Strategically tacked onto random surfaces or even items by itself or stickers that you both had thanks to Mabel.
Sometimes you guys weren't the first to find each other's notes though, which is surprising given how careful you both are regarding each other's schedules and habits.
Ford also keeps all the notes he finds from you, they're sandwiched in a journal somewhere he hides from everybody. The last thing he needs is for Stan to find it and just spill out whatever heartfelt prose or solutions are in there regarding each note he finds from you.
At this point there's so much that it's no surprise how wordy that man can get when it comes to appreciating gifts or analyzing puzzles toward his caliber of genius.
You can imagine the horror when apparently Mabel finds one of the more raunchier notes in this game you both play because of her snooping though.
"Hey [Y/N]? What's this?"
"Yes Mabel? That-"
The immediate drop in your stomach when she's waving a little red sticky note at you, the kid's asking what it is but it looks like she damn well knows what it is.
"Is this a new note from Grunkle Foooord?"
"Haha... yeah... can I have it?"
Mabel grinned cheekily at you, causing a bright red to bloom all over your cheeks. Well, at least it was the Pines' niece that found it and not Stanley or god FORBID Dipper. You didn't know if Ford would try to stop existing if his brother found this note, or just immediately wish he split into atoms...
Thankfully she handed it over to you without much fuss, just giggling like a schoolgirl. Who knew what ideas were running rampant in her teenage head?
Maybe the both of you should stop this odd game, or crank up the cryptic! Who knows, you'll have to mention it to a certain enamored sixer. You grinned at the little sticky note and pocketed it, making your way down to the lab where you know he'd be working.
"If I was an enzyme, I'd be DNA helicase so I could unzip your genes."
Even while trying to be provocative he was cute. What a dork.
we can talk about buy gold bye all day but in retrospect this is my favourite bill moment from dreamscaperers, because he is having One Of The Days Ever
like you get summoned back to gravity falls for the first time in thirty years, already an excellent start (it is good to be back!)
and to make it even better, you know that one human you had every kind of relationship at once with and whose mind you know inside out but then he realised your true plans and tried to break up with you so you spent several weeks torturing him and now he's been MIA for said thirty years? of the all the jobs this random kid could possibly want from you, you're being hired to go break into his mind and steal from him
(been there done that kid!)
except plot twist! they don't actually mean that guy. they mean his identical twin brother who's been assuming his identity since then
and we get to watch bill have the realisation in real time that not only has he just worked out exactly what happened, he is the only person other than stan himself who has enough information to do so!
no secrets in this chapter clearly! Just kidding these decoded messages seemed pretty messed up idk if they mean anything other than potential trauma. Does anyone know how to decode the numbers from the chapter?
