buzzes around annoyingly in ur ear
any billford thoughts to share with the class… I HUNGERRRRRRR
BOY DO I!!!!!!!!!!! You know I was about to post about how I go about with my BillFord stuff but I just didn't have a reason to, but now I do LMFAO. Big warning, I'm a big yapper. They call me yapmaxxer
I don't know, this might not be exactly answering your question but with the BillFord in my mind, I wanna try to be strictly close to canon as possible. But with some stuff I wanna draw of them, it doesn't really align?
Like I love drawing Bill being physically clingy to Ford but I want to portray that in a way where it's not like... Traditional romantic gestures?? If that makes sense? I don't think this is canon (which is why I'm a little mixed on uploading stuff like that because I love sticking to canon!!!) but in my world where I can put a crumb of my own thoughts into it... I think it'd be like that.
What I'm saying is that I think Bill doesn't truly grasp how human romance works (especially emotionally), so he's just copying what he see's from human memories, which is just mostly, if not all, physical gestures from his POV. Mixed in with the fact that I also think Ford is a little socially awkward in more of the romance side. So mix in those two and you get a margarita mix of awkward romance I suppose.
ALSO while he does copy those mannerisms, I do think that (in my version) he would like to feel that type of contact, since he is a mind creature thing and it took him 30+ years to actually meet face to face with Ford. And might I say, probably touch starved but that's going way off canon but IT MAKES SENSE RIGHT.
I DON'T KNOW It's hard for me to describe the BillFord-isms in my mind, but I hope that gets the point across on how I think of them. If not, I will be happy to explain it in more depth.
Uhmmm aside from that, I think it's interesting how Bill is kind of held back when he talks to Ford pre-betrayal. Like, playing Chess and asking for his company and riddles and such... LIKE WITH GIDEON AND DIPPER, HE DGAF, HE WILL PULL OUT TEETH AND A HUMAN HEAD FOR THOSE TWO. But with Poindexter over here, he gets somewhat more human treatment.... Maybe he just hates kids LMFAO
I think a bulk of my BillFord interest lies on the pre-portal time (before Ford went into the portal, but still knew of Bill's betrayal). I haven't read the Book of Bill properly (I'M STILL WAITING ON MY COPY THAT MIGHT ARRIVE IN 2 WEEKS GRRRR) but I find it interesting how Bill SEEMS (not sure because I didn't read the full book) to still like Ford fondly even after everything, especially in comparison to how he acts towards Stanley LMFAO, HE HATESSSS THAT MAN. LIKE ONE OF THE PASSWORDS ON THE "https://thisisnotawebsitedotcom.com/" ABOUT HOW STANLEY BEAT BILL AND HE WAS KIND OF GLAZING FORD A BIT FOR BEING THE BETTER TWIN. IDK maybe he still thinks of Ford as his boy toy or something. He does seem to take the world unseriously until something bad happens to him
Anyways, I could go on and on but it's just me recanting canon info 😭 Sorry it's been mostly Bill centric. My interest in Ford only popped up recently. Back when the show was airing, I kind of hated Ford because he was mean to Stanley 😭😭😭😭😭 and now I'm like damn he can get it LMFAO
