#sixer's thoughts

[one-sixer-please]

Not really sure how to start this...

Greetings. I am Stanford Pines. My niece and nephew decided to teach me the ways of the internet. Pretty fascinating. I am currently sitting on my couch with my device watching Bill try to use a broom twice his size. Entertaining. I was told to allow you all to "ask me questions" and whatnot. So...ask away!

vv read below for rules vv Hello! Mason/Syn here. I'm the mod behind the one-sixer-please, mabels-scrapbooks, and dippers-starbooks accounts! Couple rules and things I want to share:

Be patient please!! I am a human person that does a lot of stuff so I may not always be able to answer asks!! But I'll try when I can!! My time zone is EST. I'll respond whenever I'm awake/not at school or other event!! Please...no NSFW asks...I don't care for shipping (Billford or Fiddauthor only though...let's not get weird here) if you want to imply some undertones...but I'm a minor so just be respectful of that!! Be mindful of the AU!! I picked this AU for specifically how Ford acts but also remember what takes place in this AU if you have any questions regarding that :3 Uhh, other than that just don't be weird or creepy. Have common sense. Thank you!!! :3 btw ford has a tag for his daily journal entries. #sixer's thoughts if you're interested in his journal entries :3

You see, @localcanadiancryptid22, I’m a motherfucker who LOVES drama, so I fw anything that can create that.

I’m normal. Btw. In case you were wondering.

Alternate timeline where Stanley doesn’t accidentally ruin Ford’s project but he still doesn’t get into Geek Life University bc some kid showed up with a baking soda volcano

and thinking about the difference between bill and fiddleford when it comes to fords hands and fords 'genius'

bill makes fords polydactyly a focal point, something impossible to ignore. he tells ford that he'll fit right in with bills band of "freaks" all because his hands are a little different than other humans. he never lets him forget it, even if he says it as something to be proud of, but he and everyone else knows that ford kinda never stopped holding onto the insecurity that was associated with this trait. bill also never let ford forget his smarts, he played into the what ford always wanted to hear about his smarts, but fords brain was only ever a tool to bill. fords hands were (part of) a reason bill wanted to bring him along in his crew, and fords mind was simply a means to an end

and then we have fiddleford who, upon meeting ford for the first time, immediately saw ford as this genius who cared about what he had to say and they connected over their shared love for all that nerd stuff, and it was something that was important to them both and brought them together, and kept them together

and fiddleford says he didnt even notice, after hours and hours of sitting in a room with ford and them focused on eachother (and math)... he didnt even notice that fords hands were different until afterward, when he was looking at a photo of them both. this thing ford had been forced to worry about his whole life, and it wasnt even a thing to fiddleford.

ford wanted to be known, to be loved, for his brain and what he could do. and, in my opinion, it sometimes feels like he almost wanted to make up for the fact he was different, to prove he wasnt 'less than' because of some difference he was born with, this thing that everyone made such a big deal out of

and between the two biggest people in his life (aside from his brother of course lmao), one focused on and made a big deal out of his difference, and the other didnt even notice it. one saw his genius as a tool, and the other saw it as something amazing and admirable.

hell, if the bit of their conversation in the book of bill when they meet is, well, when they meet and is their first words to eachother... the first name or nickname that bill calls ford is, of course, sixer. and one of the first things fiddleford calls ford... is friend.

and i just feel like it says a lot about those two relationships and him.

Headcanon that Bill is terrible with names not because he has bad memory but because he has met so many people with the same names over the years that he stuggles to remember /which one/ you are and that’s why he nickname everyone (sixer, pinetree, shooting star)

[sneaky-snake-907]

TBOB spoilers:

Another thing that gets me about Bill's crack so much is that he presents himself as this all powerful entity that's doing fine. He lies until he's not lying anymore. However, he can't continue to lie about that because he's got a giant crack across his body.

Here's your daily reminder that Ford has a "Hey Now I'm An All Star!" tattoo on his neck

[nenoname]

it's truly a whiplash that i'm like "oh geez i only just noticed that the ep 2 stan o' war shows up at the start of not what he seems!!! i never noticed that the machine in abaconings looks like a swingset!!! what type of a fan am i????" that i forget that most fans didn't read theories and meta constantly

so now im seeing a bunch of folks go "omg stanley was upset about wax stan because of his twin!!! oh the stan we see in the time travel ep is actually ford!!!!"

Observation

I've caught my own universe's bill doing something interesting. He was staring at himself in the mirror. Not saying a word. Just staring. His hand was hovering over his blue scar. It's...quite interesting when you imagine it. I could never imagine him (a short broomclimbing janitor) to feel any form of emotion. But he looked sad. Like he was accepting some form of defeat... Should I do something? Or should I leave him be? This makes me miss my own muse. I haven't seen him in a bit.

[suggsnkisses]

pat bev mad that ben ate him uppp

[kezzieke]

damn

Obsessed with how Bill keeps indirectly complimenting Ford through how he insults Stan. We get it, you're projecting your insecurities onto Stan and you're in denial about how much you actually care about Ford. Dumbass triangle.

#I am feeling strangely comforted by this#because there are three post offices#within a 20 minute walk of my house#and I not only know where they all are#but have used all three#and I know where to find two near my office as well#so I feel like I am winning some kind of navigational quiz here!

goblins versus readers of The Hobbit cricket match and you just hit a sixer!

JRR Tolkien, writing The Hobbit: The passages there were crossed and tangled in all directions, but the goblins knew their way, as well as you do to the nearest post-office…

Me, a child, reading it: Oh dear. I’m not sure I do know the way to the nearest post-office. It sounds as if that’s absolutely something I’m supposed to know. I can’t know less than a goblin. The book will be disappointed in me.

Me, a little while later, figuring out the location of a nearby post-office: oh thank goodness

Me for the rest of my life: feeling vaguely comforted and affirmed by knowing the location of the nearest post-office, a facility I almost never use, because I am at least the navigational equal of a goblin

The Stan twins were forced into their personal hell for those 30 years by having to do what the other excels at in order to live.

Stan didn't have the opportunity to finish high-school because he accidentally broke his brothers invention, and now he was trapped with the task of isolating amidst the unknown and fixing a infinitely more complex invention... just like the Sixer did for the last decade and a half, first at university then in Gravity Falls.

The boy who didn't want to be alone, who's brains were no good at all but still dreamed of freedom and travelling the globe, had to once be alone on purpose, to try and live amongst the scary supernatural stuff that flooded this weird little town he's now trapped in and rely on his mind if he wanted to even dream of having the chance of fixing his mistakes.

Ford wanted to be the hero who would change the game for his family and prove himself worthy, and now pushed into the Nightmare Realm he had to live on the run, fighting day and night and relying on pure surviving skills only to live one more day in hell... just like Stanley did all those years in the open road, living in his car and turning into a conman.

The boy who learned to value only his mind and his achievements but still dreamed of finding a place to belong to, who thought he'd gotten there by isolating with the anomalies of this weird little town, had to be thrown into such chaos that his knowledge was no more a factor into the equation and wander into the deepest of the unknown - perhaps too deep - to realize the importance of what he already had and pushed away.
