Mabel is a character that I adore with all my heart, so it was wonderful to hear Alex discuss the nuances of her characterisation with such open fondness:

“There’s just a…uniqueness to what Kristen does. There’s a sincerity. (…) When she becomes Mabel, and she is in love with the latest guy who walked in her field of view, she really is in love, like, she’s not making fun of her own character. She believes what her own character believes, and she embodies her character.”

…

“I genuinely believe that in terms of intelligence, Dipper, Mabel, Stan and Ford are basically equal, they have different types of intelligence. In terms of moral alignment, Dipper, Mabel, Stan and Ford, for the most part, are relatively equal, though I would say that of that group, Mabel is absolutely the purest of heart. She has the least to learn, because her way of looking at life, with love and sincerity and with an unashamed fearlessness about who she is, is probably the most right, and that's why we beat her up the least, because there's not a lot that she needs to change.”

hot take on billford is that the secret third thing is obsession with being seen by someone for the first time in each of their lives

i think the fact that time is fleeting and nothing is permanent makes life that much more interesting

i wanted to imagine what it would be like if Ford has convinced Fiddleford to stay, if instead of being in shock at Fiddlefords reaction he was calm and collected, as if he knew the reason for that horror.

Ford is not what he seems, and oddly enough, even when Ford asked for Stanley to come, while Ford greeted stan with open arms, Fiddleford couldn't help but have his suspicion rise the more he stuck around.

Eventually, fiddleford pushed Ford into the portal.

And that was when Stanford Pines was lost from the fall.

Its when Stanford Cipher rose.

Post-portal Stanford design, i'll move it digitally ... Eventually!!

This au is called LostFalls btw:)

GF lore question how you think Stan managed to keep his car despite going to prison three times?

(I am not American and do not know if like they can keep your belongings stored up until the end of your sentence or sth)

EVERYBODY HOLD.

does he mean “i’m still here” as in alive or “i’m still here” as in. Still In Stan’s Brain. does this have implications. that i should be worried about

no need

-

the church of long shadows

of trees upon trees

no need to fall to one's knees

here, no need

-

the muse is a crow

perched near me, in the pines

not a warning at all

but a blessing

all mine

-

no god but my own breath

as wide as the sky

my footfalls

my heartbeat

the light in my eyes

Weird question, but how would you align tge Phantomhive twins with the Pine twins (both Dipper&Mabel and the Stans)?

I actually love this question, thank you for asking!

When it comes to the Stan’s, I think that O!Ciel and Ford have a lot of similarities, but only the younger version of him. Both of them made a deal with a demon, had something that “separated” him from others (six fingers/asthma), really only had his brother, intelligent, quieter, and had wants/ambitions that would separate him and his brother. Before death (BD) R!Ciel and a young Ford both share the same expected future, but shares more with an older Ford with his distrust. After death (AD) R!Ciel shares a lot with young Fords idealism and an older Fords weird distancing tactics he has with his twin.

With Stan, O!Ciel and him relate with being overlooked, taking their brothers place for an understandable goal/reason, the struggle to become who they are, both wanting to prove themselves, and both would do anything for their brothers. BD and AD R!Ciel is a lot like a younger Stan with his worry for his brother leaving him and eventual recklessness (such as ruining his brother’s business/destroying Fords project).

So I think all around for the Stans, O!Ciel acts like Ford, but is more like Stan when it comes to who he actually is. While R!Ciel has the worries/actions of Stan, but the attitude of Ford.

Now for Mabel and Dipper,

R!Ciel AD has similarities with Mabel when it comes to “ruining” their brother’s plans, Mabel with almost destroying the world for an idealist want (by taking Bills offer of “Mabel Land”) and R!Ciel ruining O!Ciels life (by being revived by UT). Both of them are trying to “set things right” in their own way without understanding how much damage they’re actually causing. R!Ciel is still stuck in the past, he hasn’t had chances to grow and mature, for him this is all a game and eventually O!Ciel will understand (like Mabel, except for Mabel she was deeply scared). BD R!Ciel is still very much like Mabel, when O!Ciel proclaims he wants to run a toy store he freaks out because he’s worried his brother is leaving him. I think O!Ciel shares very little with Mabel as shes very forward and bright.

O!Ciel and Dipper are more alike, once again like Ford, making deals with a demon and being focused on his goals. For R!Ciel, I currently can’t come up with any similarities that he may share with Dipper.

Altogether, young O!Ciel is a lot like a younger Ford with the naivety, trust, and attitude. As he grew older he became more like Dipper, Stan, and an older Ford with having strong goals, distrust, actions, and wants. R!Ciel started off as a mixture of Mabel, Stan, and Ford, he wanted to stay with his brother no matter what, was skeptical of the things around him, and had a future. But AD he got Mabel’s and young Fords clouded vision.

If it were to be an AU, R!Ciel would be Mabel and O!Ciel as Dipper. If they were supposed to be the Stans I don’t think the story would happen.

Is it a queerplatonic relationship? Is it gender envy? Is it a deep intimate friendship? Is it borderline romantic? Friends to Lovers? Lovers to Friends? Are we platonic soulmates? Are we . . . Semi-crushes? Language is arbitrary and I don't even know anymore. But I do know that I was made to cherish people intensely and openly so in the end, it doesnt matter what we call ourselves because I will always love you one way or another
