no bc ford and bill's falling out is so silly to me because its like. ford's obsession with bill was the closest to "religious" that he's ever tread, and that kind of betrayal was earth shattering and hurt ford in a way he had NEVER been hurt before, causing him to completely mentally and emotionally unravel. meanwhile bill is like "can we talk 🥺" as if he hasn't been using ford for years, and when it became clear ford hated his ass bill got so drunk he forgot his mom was dead. what an INSANE dynamic to establish 8 years after the show ended.

#ford spiraling into extreme paranoia vs bill acting like a heartbroken teenager #AND they fucked on karaoke night. stanford pines had (implied) gay sex with an interdimensional war criminal in his mind.#what a fucking crazy dynamic. god bless you alex hirsch.#gravity falls #stanford pines #ford pines #bill cipher #billford #ford pines gravity falls #bill cipher gravity falls #the book of bill

Alex talked about there being one final mystery in TBoB that hasn’t been found yet and when I saw him at the talk, he ‘randomly’ scrolled through the pages on his slides and said “I’m just gonna leave this on a totally random page with no relation” which was obviously wink wink.

He left it on the lost journal 3 pages.

There aren’t any obvious symbols or anything on the page or hidden within it, so I think he was talking about what those pages were leading into….

My theory on the final mystery is:

I don’t think Ford wrote those pages.

I’ve seen a few people posit something similar and the more I’ve re-read the book more I believe it. Ford doesn’t write like that, he doesn’t speak like that. It feels off and idk why?? Maybe I’m just completely mistaking all of this or whatever but my paranoia sense is tingling.

I think the final clue is that TBoB shows you want you want to see and I believe it showed both the audience AND Bill what he hoped to see most of all.

#bill cipher #gravity falls #the book of bill #tbob #stanford pines #ford pines #not that my paranoia isn’t always tingling but you understand my meaning #and i could just be going crazy idk but the strange way it’s written plus Alex leaving those pages up??….

Me almost falling asleep going full conscious with a cold sweat: "Actually, if it was Stanly to go through the portal instead of Ford, Ford probably would have not done anything to get Stan back because he knew what all the implications of reactivating the portal were and would not want to risk the dimension's safety for his brother's life (also because he was very mentally unstable and did not hold Stan in hight regards at that time) unlike Stan, that spent 30 years to trying to bring him back. So he would just probably stew in his own guilt for 30 years still trying to find a way to stop Bill until the twins arrived at his doorstep."

#We need to remember that Stanford was battling sleep and a demom #he was not thinking straight for a second #bill had a direct access to our dimension thanks to Ford so he going through the portal was kinda good because it shut off bill from here #but if Ford stayed here with no help?#he is going full crazy before probably killing a unicorn to get their hair and building the protective spell #and the paranoia about bill would be astronomical #he would not dare to touch the portal with a ten foot pole #stanford pines #stanley pines #bill cipher #gravity falls #gravity falls au #making myself cry

SORRY FOR THE WAIT FELLAS

#tw blood #ford is 2 dimensional if i didn’t make that clear enough #the thing about ford in this au is that even though bill is dead #he lost. he is suffering and locked in his basement again like he was when he was 30 and now he can’t escape through the portal #and his family is suffering along with him. he doesn’t like looking at their eyes and removes any mirrors in the basement #he is already mourning dipper #a bad timeline kind of thing would be him giving into paranoia and after a century or so giving them blindfolds to wear #gravity falls #gravity falls au #gravity falls fanart #pines pantheon au #bill is a ghost pretty much #mabel pines #dipper pines #ford pines #bill cipher

4 pages of stan's nightmare.... him beating bill via sheer paranoia and spite and the fact he can't trust people being nice to him....

#IM GONNA CHEW ON THIS FOR WEEKS #stan pines #stanley pines #bill cipher #two sides of the same dollar bill #also aw cute paranoia parallels between stan and dipper #this is probably not a good thing!!!#'he's too dumb for me to trick' bill says as if he didnt immediately fuck it up from the getgo #alex saying he might post this later...#we dont exactly get stuff written in stan's pov often too #ironic considering how much we get from ford vs his actual screentime

We as a fandom talk a lot about loving or hating twink bill but I feel there's a bit of a lack of love towards uncanny valley bill, he could be twinky or a bear or just an old man I don't care I just wanna see a guy where you go "that's a human... Wait no the fuck it's not?????????" I want to see your bill cipher x The Stranger from the Magnus archives crossovers, I mean he already removes his skin COME ON GUYS HE'D BE PERFECT FOR IT

#i am usually a firm Spiral!avatar bill truther but he works so well for Stranger #especially the “you don't know me' aspect... when ford cuts off contact with him and every person he meets starts being slightly off #people he Knows become Strangers and it worsens his paranoia... he calls up Stanley but he looks so different when he arrives it sends him #spiralling #haha spiral spiralling anyways cuz here's the thing right hes joined gangs hes gone to prison hes simply grown up #i feel like his nose shape is different after having it broken too many times #his hair has changed snd become dry and course after not looking after it #his face is more sunken from malnutrition;despite the years apart his brothers appearance is solid in his brain and whatever is at his door #it is not his brother.#gravity falls #the magnus archives #tma #tma podcast #gravity falls stanford #stanford pines #bill cipher #the book of bill #the stranger #the stranger tma #avatar of the stranger #bill cipher is an avatar of the stranger #journal 3 gravity falls #gravity falls bill #bill ci the triangle guy #billford #ehh kinda??#if you see spelling mistakes no you don't?????

Where it All Falls

They all make it to the hospital, Mabel awoke again and her cries filled the emergency room, the doctors trying to stop the bleeding. Dipper sits in the waiting room, tears silently falling onto his shorts with his head in his hands. Stan is standing in the corner, calling their parents. Ford paces across the floor, tense He looks towards Dippers small frame, stopping in his tracks. "What exactly happened out there, Dipper?" His voice was hushed and strained, trying to keep any emotion out of his tone to seem stronger than he felt. Dipper sniffles, drawing his knees up to his chest. "It was an accident," he muttered repeatedly, shaking his head.

Ford took a step closer, kneeling down with a hand on Dippers shoulder. His grip was firm, his suspicion growing. "What happened. Out there in the woods. What did you do, Dipper?"

Dipper let out a choked sob, his nails digging into his arms. "It was an accident Uncle Ford! I swear, I didn't mean to- to-" his voice cracked, covering his eyes. Ford squinted, concern for his niece on his worn features.

He cleared his throat, trying to get some sense of control. "I.. I wanted to show Mabel what you showed me. Back at the UFO cave..." a pang of fear ran down his spine, knowing he couldn't lie about this.Dipper cleared his throat again, making teary-eye contact with Ford. "I went down into the basement. And...." A sense of dread bubbled up into Fords stomach."And I stole your magent gun–" he couldn't listen to this anymore. The mere thought want to make Ford vomit. He stood harshly, any gentleness flushed away.

"You deliberately stole from me? After KNOWING what those instruments can do?" Ford boomed, startling Dipper as he edged back into the seat."They are not TOYS Dipper! What did I tell you, first thing as we went up that hill?" He glowered, a rotten look of disgust on his face.

Fords volume made Stanley pause his call, turning to see what the commotion was. A cornered Dipper and furious brother stood in front of the child."...Stanford? What's goin-" "I told you! The magnet gun can rip the fillings out of a Grown Man's mouth from 100 MILES AWAY! Did you not listen to a word I said?!" Stanford was fuming now, and Stanley went pale.He tried to move to stop this attack on his kid nephew, but some morbid part deep inside of him forced him still. To watch it play out.

Stanford sounded just like their father, when Stanley accidentally punched him in the face and broke his glasses.

Dipper coward further into himself, shaking and crying. Ford continued his verbal assault, but stepped back and began pacing again, lowering his voice when he noticed the looks the nurses around gave him. Stanley went to sit next to Dipper, placing a hesitant hand on his shoulder. "Dipper... what, er, happened after that?" He rasped, glacing between him and his mumbling brother.

Dipper looked up at Stan, and just as he went to speak, his breath hitched and he broke down once more, a blubbering tear filled mess. With a hick and a sob, Dipper tore away and ran.

Okay now I'm curious about your TMA/Gravity Falls crossover. Is it like the cast of TMA get a cartoony summer adventure or is it like the cast of Gravity Falls have to deal with The Horrors? Or is it something else?

See this fic enchants me because it’s sort of both. One of the Rules of the fic is that the characters absolutely must maintain the conventions of their genre. So it’s the TMA universe and all of its grimdark cosmic horror grappling with the metaphysically displaced Mystery Twins, who operate on cartoon logic.

So it’s a lot of:

Elias: As you can see, you are all quite trapped. Under the contract, you cannot quit and you cannot kill me, so I suggest you all--

Mabel and Dipper: *exchange a look*

Dipper, stonefaced: *shrinks him with the size changing gem*

Mabel: *picks him up by his blazer and puts him in a jar*

The TMA crew: *staring*

Dipper, clapping once: so that's him handled.

Tim, completely broken, having to sit down: what

Dipper: I mean he can't do his evil machinations when he's like two inches tall in a jar and he's not going to die either so--oh uh Mabel? You put holes in that jar right?

Mabel, already going through Elias’s wallet and pocketing the cash: I can't be expected to think of everything Dipper

Dipper: I'm sure he's fine there, there was some air to start with and--we'll add holes. We'll add some holes

#Mabel and dipper have to grapple with the horrors but the horrors have to grapple with them #it’s Mabel and Dipper stuck in the TMA universe with Jon—who panicked—as their fake dad #look in his defense he was half mad with paranoia and had no legal explanation as to how he suddenly had kids past ‘uhhh I was a teen dad.’#‘the adoption was open. they’re visiting.’#Elias spends the entire time absolutely vibrating with frustration because those are not his fucking kids and they’re causing him so much #fucking trouble. but everyone chalks his skepticism up to racism because dipper and Mabel look white and Jon doesn’t #meanwhile Stan and ford are trying to illegally universe hop to save the kids #Gerry Keay is there because he fell in with ford when he accidentally hopped into the TMA universe years back #they were fake dad and son and ford took him with him when he finally escaped #they got separated when he needed to get cancer treatment #ford left him in a utopia and it was just. too perfect. Gerry just wants a world that’s a normal amount of fucked up. he’s chewing the walls #of this place. the alternative music scene is nonexistent because there’s nothing to rebel against. he can’t live like this. its too perfect #ford recruits him to help save the kids with the promise of a world that was a semi normal amount of fucked
