#memory erasing gun

[oatmealdaydreams]

Gravity Falls where everything is the same, except everyone has some sort of scar from being blasted from the Memory-Erasing Gun via the Society of the Blind Eye.

The Pine Twins notice how everyone has a similar scar and choose to investigate, which leads them to discover the Blind Eye shit. They notice McGucket has multiple, and I mean a lot, of memory gun scars. They're a little suspicious of him and then find out he was the leader/creator of the Blind Eye. As they watch his memories with him, his story becomes a little more tragic when they realize how dependent he once was on forgetting. And maybe there's some guilt about the Blind Eye's actions of erasing an entire town's memories because he's the one who started it with his creation of the memory gun.

Anyway. A bit of detective work like in that one episode where they searched for who murdered Wax Stan. Fun lil mystery adventure.

Could go two ways: make it canon divergent and have it be how they found out about the Blind Eye...or, I could make it canon compliant and make the investigating group have their memories of it all erased by the Blind Eye, so it fits a little more with canon. Maybe the canon compliant path can include the members of the Blind Eye being just a lil suspicious and wary of the Pines Twins because they've figured it out before, even if they don't remember it. Or, I could make it where the Blind Eye aren't worried about the Pines Twins + their investigating group because they erased their memories and assume it's fine.

Just a fun lil idea :3

(if anyone wants to draw or write this, pls tag me, I wanna see it)

ever heard a bad opinion from me? No? Exactly. And we’ll keep it that way with my handy dandy trust memory erasing tool.

[rat-detector-seven]

thats because ive been fixing it

Funnily enough I've never broken containment

[blabberoo]

That fiddauthor animation will haunt me for the next few months...

I need to marinate more thoughts for this but. okay so gravity falls au. partially inspired by this. fiddleford has the memory gun and he's This Close to using it on himself to erase what he saw in the portal. he pauses. he thinks, just because I forget doesn't mean stanford will stop building the portal. he thinks it's all or nothing. he goes to stanford's shack in the woods. he sneaks in through the side door and sees stanford sleeping on the couch. it's dark outside. the lights are out. fiddleford can barely make out the shape of his former-friend's body. fiddleford looks at Stanford one last time. he types into the memory gun, Stanford Pines. he points the gun. half a second before he fires, Stanford stirs, as if sensing the danger he is in. he manages to get out "who-" before fiddleford, panicking, pulls the trigger before he can chicken out completely.

stanley wakes up on a couch he doesn't remember falling asleep in, with a terrified looking man standing over him, holding a glowing gun, and thinks this is one hell of a situation i've gotten myself into

I've read a lot of headcanons and theories that try to explain why Fiddleford went from taller than the Stan twins to much shorter.

and sure terrible posture is partially to blame, but look at how all of McGucket is just smaller.

may I propose a canon and likely answer:

[thepositivefella]

Gotta love how half the fandom struggles with Stan getting his memories back within a week starting his therapy 30 min after the wipe. But my man Fiddleford over here wiped his mind blank 30 years ago and it took him, like, one month at most to remember it all before even meeting Ford again

[southparkthetwosidesofacard]

guys I have an au idea, hear me out on this

a gravity falls au thats a jekyll and hyde type deal, with ford being jekyll and bill being hyde

(I know something similar has probably already been done before and that so many animatics have been made with them and confrontation but LET ME COOK CHAT)

also I may or may not have accidentally developed a little bit of an obsession with the strange case of dr jekyll and mr hyde so if anyone wants to yap about it with me PLEASE LET ME KNOW I NEED TO YAP ABOUT THIS TO SOMEONE

[stupidlittlespirit]

You defend Ford a lot, which is fine he needs a lot of defending. But do you think he's still got faults? With his ego and stuff.

Oh of course.

I say a lot that he's not at fault for turning out the way he did, but that doesn't mean the way in which he exacted his behaviour was faultless. You're still responsible for hurting people, no matter the reason behind it.

He isn't inherently a bad person because he knows he's done wrong and he regrets and apologises for it. It's up to the people that he hurt to forgive him and they tell us themselves that they don't think that he's a bad person for the way he acted.

I do believe that he got very sick (probably isolation sickness plus obsessive tendencies, combined with other poor mental health issues and then Bill's horrendous abuse making all of those things a million times worse) and became too unwell to be helped by people who weren't capable of dealing with such intense illness. He kept a lot to himself and that didn't help, either. He's an S-tier repressor.

I also believe the characters that he is linked to (Stan, Fidds) knew that and that contributed to their accepting of his apology. They knew it wasn't really the true version of the person they cared so deeply for doing those things, but was actually his illnesses and outside influences. Doesn't mean Ford wasn't in the wrong or that they weren't hurt, though.

So yeah, ultimately, he has a lot of faults and those faults die hard, but they don't make him a bad person and it's very tone deaf to examine those faults in a vacuum without considering the context in which they occur :)

[slimslamflimflam]

Wait if all the journal 3 pages were restored after Weirdmageddon why does Bill’s book insist there were still missing pages that just conveniently happened to pertain to his incredibly sad backstory and concepts brought up earlier in that same book

[transingthoseformers]

hey wait what if we wiped a preexisting transformer's memories and lead them to believe they were made by humans (and it's such a Thing)?

[Forget-Me-Not AU]

This is my favourite au from ew, if you're an eddsworld fan then you can take a look at this fanfiction on AO3 made by MinuBell.

Summary: The main character in this au is Tord. He lost all his memories (with the erased gun), Tord doesn't know his name anymore or what happened before he wakes up. He's alone and injured and tries to survive until Edd finds him in an alley and take him at his apartment but Tom and Matt didn't know that Edd is keeping their old friend and now enemie, what will do Edd to make Tord remember him and the others? To know that you will have to keep reading! (this fanfic is not about shipping the main 4 if you're wondering)

everyone acting like they always knew “he quietly slid from time” meant “the gang forgot him” is lying, it was Not clear, it was Not a widely understood or accepted interpretation in the immediate aftermath of trk, and also it was a stupid decision and i continue to choose to ignore it.

[art-crumbs-main]

Tempted to start tagging any human Bills I see according to hana hyperfixates' tierlist when I reblog them.

I fear this would only fall into what they tried to avoid with people willingly submitting their Bills for judgement, though.
