#meet their grandniblings

[lxvvie]

Maybe Simon going to a like a mandated knitting circle and just meets you.... as he is getting flirted with my grandmas (My what a strong boi)

Just imagine Simon meeting the reader through the knitting group and then it becomes a group-wide effort to push the two together because they'd be so cute as a couple. This is so sugary-sweet that I should write about it.

But anywho!

Simon was forced to go because the guys said he was "too on edge" and that he "needed a good stress reliever".

He's an anomaly in a sea of adorably gossipy meemaws who think it's absolutely delightful that some of the youth are still interested in knitting. And hey, at least he can learn to patch his shit up when it gets torn.

Because of this, he also experiences the following:

Being called everything from 'poppet', 'dearie', 'sweetheart', 'honey', and... Silas (he lets it slide because what the hell). Flusters him more than he cares to admit.

Getting the latest gossip. If Simon thought shit on base was scandalous, the stuff he hears in his knitting group of ALL places took the fucking cake.

Finding camaraderie in their life stories; some of the women he met had close family members who served and/or they served themselves.

Said adorable meemaws playing matchmaker. Oh yeah, they have plenty of grandkids and grandniblings who would love a strapping young man such as him. Oh, fucking hell...

Simon finds out that some of the women have taken to jokingly calling him their "knitting husband". He may or may not have considered giving them Price's number in revenge lmao.

Never going without baked goods. Ever. Fuck, they're spoiling him rotten with all the sweets they send him home with.

Becoming more attached to the group than he expected; Ghost continues to go long after he's required to. Imagine the look on everyone else's faces when Simon leaves for their meeting saying that he has to go see about his girls. Or something like that. The fuck's so funny, Johnny?

medium s/o hcs ; dipper & ford

requested by ; anonymous (02/06/22)

fandom(s) ; gravity falls

fandom masterlist(s) ; here

character(s) ; dipper pines, stanford pines

outline ; “HIIIIIII can i req dipper and stanford pines with an s/o that is a medium? like can see and speak with ghosts and other supernatural things and is vv superstitious?”

warning(s) ; none, just fluff!

dipper pines

initially dipper had brushed off your superstitions as a matter of upbringing

he’d met many people over the years who absentmindedly threw leftover salt over their shoulder or who veered around ladders out of habit — so, to him, you were far from abnormal in that regard

granted your superstitions were a bit more specific than most and you were a bit more insistent on him abiding by them (at least when you were together) than most — but he just brushed it off as one of your eccentricities

i mean he spends most of his days studying the supernatural so far beyond him to judge someone for trying to protect themselves

then you sat him down and told him about your gift and that’s when everything clicked into place

the knocking on doors before entering any room — even the ones you knew were empty

the refusal to whistle at night — and your scolding of him for doing so

the refusal to enter older buildings

you could see the dead and didn’t want to disturb them — it made so much sense now

he’d question you about your abilities — limits, experiences and what exactly you can and cannot do — and write them all down in his own notebook

and he’d default to you and your experiences when dealing with hauntings going forwards to minimise any upsetting of the dead

but beyond that he wouldn’t treat you any different

he’d just be more open with you about his studies, share in your superstitions and occasionally ask for your help or guidance where needed

and unless you want him to do something else with your gift, he won’t, and things will stay largely the same

stanford pines

your relationship likely only happened because of your gift — with the two of you meeting and becoming colleagues in studying the supernatural after ford heard of your talents and specifically tracked you down

of course for most of the time you knew him ford had been relatively dismissive and business oriented — not forming much of a personal bond so much as he was looking for your insight as a partner, as an equal, in his studies

and you hadn’t minded, merely insisting that he follow your instructions and doesn’t go against your superstitions when with you

it was a small ask and he readily complied, valuing the input of a medium far more than any pride or similar stigma that would have prevented him from going along with your instructions

you were effectively a coauthor for his journals, helping him gain the trust of these creatures, these entities, these communities to aid in a more thorough observation

helping him cross barriers in language and existence with lots of patience and your talent as an underlying foundation to it all

and, as time went on, the two of you inevitably got close enough to form the very beginnings of a romantic relationship

so close that your routines and habits start to mesh together so closely that you memorise his coffee order by heart and he never thinks twice about tossing that handful of salt over his shoulder or broadening his step so he avoids a crack in the pavement

closely intertwined and in love and awkward but it’s perfect for you both — you with your superstitions and him with his sciences

and you’re perfect for each other, sticking by for as long as you can — and returning to that old routine even after those years spent apart when he was lost in that void

but, still, you can recite his formulae off by heart and he pauses at the sight of a black cat or a leaning ladder — avoiding them no matter how much his brother and grandniblings tease him for it

because he knows better — he knows you

If the Discord Donnie theory comes true:

Ronin Donnie: Hmm, I want to see grandniblings

> four new accounts are added

✨Slonkangelo✨: ????

Odyn: hungy very hungy

✨Slonkangelo✨: WHO GAVE MY KIDS DISCORD ACCOUNTS?!

Ronin Donnie: Lmao, get pranked

✨[Slonkmigosh]✨: Oh mi gosh!! The grandniblings we heard so much about!!

AS:DKASDLASd they are babies they cant type yet,,,but imagine. The trouble of starting the fic so early after he meets the grandniblings is that I'm missing the fun opportunities like Ronin being exposed by a precocious Yi typing on his lappy top haha

[thelastspeecher]

Since you enjoy de-aged aus, what do you think of an au where de-aged to infants Stan Twins are somehow sent to another dimension to be raised by that dimensions Stan as he is working on the Portal in Gravity Falls? (Disregarding the whole 'if two counterparts meet the dimension implodes ' Thing from the journal. )

Sorry it took me so long to get to this!  I got sidetracked by things lmao.

But omfg this idea.  Brilliant.  Holy shit.  Stan trying to balance being a dad with bringing his brother back.  Each time he tries to go to the basement to work on the portal, one of the babies cries.  He gets a double baby bjorn, so he can take the babies with him around town when he gets supplies and things.  The townspeople love him even more than in canon.  Can’t help it.  He’s got two babies on his chest.

And like...I’m gonna say that the de-aged Stans were left on the doorstep with a note that says they’re Stan’s kids from a one night stand.  So Stan legitimately believes these kids are his.  And it’s a bit weird, when they get older and he sees they look exactly like him and Ford.  But hey, family resemblance is a thing, right?  

He names them Daniel Stanley and David Stanford Pines.  And ofc he gave the one with twelve fingers Ford’s name.  Just makes sense to him.

Dipper and Mabel visit in 2012 and their Grunkle Stan’s son Daniel is established as the fun cousin right away.  David doesn’t even show up for a month, since he’s busy doing research somewhere.  Mabel loves playing with Daniel’s toddler-aged twin daughters Lucy and Lois (shared custody with their mom).

Do they ever find out the truth?  When Ford gets back, he does.  But he doesn’t tell anyone.  Stan’s such an excellent father, and he loves his sons so much.  His sons and granddaughters and grandniblings make him so happy.  

And Ford has to admit that Daniel and David turned out great.  Stan raised them better than Filbrick ever could.

Random GF Headcanons Nobody Asked For

1. Dipper's and Mabel's parents are fantastic, but they also know just how wild their daughter's imagination is, so they don't necessarily believe Mabel when she writes to them saying that a second great uncle came out of an interdimensional portal—at least, they don't believe it until Grunkles Stan and Ford come to visit for the first Thanksgiving after Weirdmageddon. (Mrs. Pines: "Oh no! There's TWO of them!") 2. That said, they're very accepting of both Grunkles and their eccentricities. 3. Stan was in the hospital when Sherman Pines died. (I follow the theory that Shermie was quite a bit older than the Stan twins.) Furthermore, Sherman knew that Stan wasn't Ford, or he figured it out when Stan came to visit him. It was one of the last things they ever talked about. 4. The Pines family goes to Disneyland. All the Pines family. Melody gets everyone to help her propose to Soos using the cameras on the Buzz Lightyear ride. (Soos says yes.) 5. Still at Disneyland: Stan and Ford "accidentally" take over the Jungle Cruise. They take turns telling the corny puns and announcing eighth wonder of the world—"the back side of WATERRRRRRRRR"—and go on the ride at least fifteen times. Mabel laughs every time; Dipper can't believe he's related to these people. 6. Stan loves the Haunted Mansion. Loves it. 7. Dipper gets his ghost hunting show and eventually extends it to include other paranormal phenomena. Mabel occasionally helps with post-production, and everyone gets to guest star once in a while. Stan is best at it; half a lifetime of giving mystery tours has made him pretty comfortable in front of a camera. Ford, on the other hand, is dead awful. He gets better when he gets out in the field with Dipper and his enthusiasm for the weird (and natural melodrama) takes over, but when he's in the studio? Yikes. When Mabel guest stars, he tries to lure ghosts in with "ghostcakes," a joint Mabel and Ford invention. (Ghostcakes are exactly what they sound like.) 8. Stan runs into his Marylin while he and Ford are looking for Champ. They end up having to work together, and Stan and Marylin end up in an on-again-off-again spy vs. spy kind of relationship. Neither of them is terribly serious about it—they're just in it for fun. (Or are they?) 9. Alternatively, I can imagine something similar happening with Carla, except Stan would run into her in New Jersey and their relationship would be less spy-vs.-spy and more old people being adorable. 10. Post-finale, McGucket occasionally goes down to the local high school to help run a robotics club. He takes Candy under his wing. The world trembles with fear. 11. "We'll Meet Again" was one of Stan's favorite songs when he was a kid. After Weirdmageddon, Ford catches Stan singing it to Mabel one day. It takes a while, but when Ford hears it now, he doesn't think of Bill. He thinks of Stan who, his brother, who, against all odds, came back to him. 12. Ford's useless chest belt is really a super compact wearable camp stove. 13. Stan occasionally gives tours in the Mystery Shack, mostly when Soos and Melody are on vacation, but he loves giving Summerween and Halloween tours best. 14. Soos and Melody have all daughters and Grandpa Stan spoils them rotten. (My roommate and I used to joke that the kids are names Stanlie with an 'I' (cause that makes it a girl's name, dood!), Mabel, Dipper, Melody jr., Alma (I think Soos would name one kid for his grandmother, but I'm not sure what her name is, so there's one possibility) and Stanfordette.) 15. Dipper is a surprisingly good babysitter. Mabel is the self-designated aunt, and when she's older, she spoils the kids almost as much as Stan does. She teaches Stanlie how to knit. Melody wakes up one day to find her couch wearing a sweater. 16. Mabel gets to do a lot of different things after high school. She teaches art classes, is a school counselor, forms a knitting club, writes three different rock operas, is briefly lead vocalist for 80's-rock inspired band "Sweet Jake and the Jillie Willies," and runs a no-kill animal shelter. 17. Mabel also decides to host a local bake-off one summer while she and Dipper are visiting Gravity Falls. Manly Dan makes a surprisingly good bread pudding, Candy's cupcakes have edible robot arms (with sugar lasers!), Mayor Tyler is handy with fondant and spun sugar, Stan shows his support with Stancakes (it's not baking, but Mabel lets it slide), and Ford manages to make a fairly decent triple-berry-pie...which somehow gains sentience and tries to eat the judges. Wendy cohosts. She and Mabel make real life Death Muffins to stop the pie monster. 18. Grenda is a fantastic mother. Mabel gets to be godmother. Candy gets to be co-godmother. 19. Both Stan and Ford live at least long enough to see their first great-grandnibling (could be Dipper's kid or could be Mabel's kid). Stan is completely over the moon at the hospital. He keeps the baby all to himself ("Uncle Stan! I want to hold my grandchild!" "Try and catch me first, sucker!") until he remembers that Ford wasn't there when Dipper and Mabel were born, so he lets Ford hold the baby for a little while. This may be a mistake. Ford refuses to let go of the baby once he's got her. 20. Ford finds the paper that Fiddleford tried to get him to publish floating around the Mystery Shack one day. He tweaks it a bit to include more detail, rounds it off with a companion paper on Gravity Falls' Law of Weirdness Magnetism, and publishes it. The scientific community laughs its collective butt off until Stan wrestles a gremloblin into a zoology conference.

Knitting!Simon AU but with the ladies meeting the fellas:

Seeing as Simon seemed to be in better spirits, er, as best as Simon could be, Gaz, Price (he was badgered into coming, actually), and Soap figured they would tag along and meet the lovely lasses who changed their Lt. so. And what a meeting it was.

Simon learns that it's not just his name that gets butchered. "Ladies, Silas brought his friends! Meet Jack (Price), James (Soap), and Kenneth (Kyle)." Cue the boys' confused looks. Price isn't too fazed because Jack is his childhood nickname but he can't help but be reminded of his mum when she used to yell that dinner was ready.

Kyle and Johnny (ESPECIALLY Johnny) become the group's resident toy boys. It's Kyle's humor and wit and Soap's flirty nature, puppy dog eyes, and the way he calls the ladies 'Bonnie' that has them giggling like schoolgirls.

The ladies take to Price, too, and start chiding him for all the stress that he puts himself and the rest of 141 through. Soap, Ghost, and Gaz encourage this much to Price's chagrin.

The ladies also think he has the cutest, squishiest cheeks despite the beard so if they aren't gushing over them, they're pinching them affectionately and all Price can do is just chuckle bashfully. And be reminded of his mum. Yeah, he sees why Simon loves these ladies so much.

The trio also learn Simon's nickname ("Poppet, eh, Lt.?" "Fuck off, James." "Language, Poppet!" "....M'sorry, ma'am.") and it's all he can do not to spontaneously combust because bloody hell, he'll never hear the end of it.

You also get to meet the fellas, too, and aren't they charming? One of the ladies who fancies herself the resident matchmaker comes to y'all and goes, "Don't you think they would make a good couple?" indicating you and Simon, and holy fucking shit why isn't he on fire yet—

By the time their meeting has concluded, Johnny has one lovely lass promising to knit him a pair of gloves to keep warm, Kyle has been shown more pictures of grandchildren and grandniblings than he can count because he'd be such a wonderful addition to their family, and Price has taken a trip down memory lane and has the red cheeks to show for it.

Once Simon and the boys leave (with a shit ton of sweets), Johnny playfully brings you up: "So... marriage on the horizon, Poppet?" and if Simon's hands weren't full, he swears to fuckin' Christ— "Shut up, Johnny." 'Cause that'll do for now. 'Cause his girls would want him to watch his language.

That didn't mean he wasn't thinking about it, though, you becoming a Riley...
