#the trouble is that mabel would love being a cute doll#so itd be an uphill battle for dipper to convince her to get uncursed when they find the solution#they'd probably have to have a heart-to-heart about being your true self and the march of time or whatever#or maybe when breaking the curse they gain the ability to turn between forms whenever they want#this is a very loosey-goosey au so *shrugs*

you havent drawn ford interacting with the handcrafted kids so ive been imagining this as pre-portal completion and i cant help but laugh at the idea of stan letting the kids go out one morning, still pretending that magic doesnt exist only for them to come back like That and have to be like 'ah. shit.' also/alternatively. ford coming back and getting the double whammy of 'i have grand-niblings?' 'my grand-niblings aRE CURSED????'

Yeah, the timeline I'm working with is vaguely Season 1 to first-half of Season 2. Some random week or two in there. Like if the shrink-ray ep had lasted a while before they found a solution.

So there was absolutely a moment where the kids turned up after getting cursed and Stan went "Shit. Maybe blind ignorance wasn't the move. What they hell did they even do???"

(Jokes on Stan, I'm not sure of the inciting incident yet either lol)

And you can bet that Dipper paused his mini-existential crisis to point at Grunkle Stan and triumphantly yell "Ha! Try to brush THIS off!"

Honestly I can't tell if the kids being cursed would make tensions worse or better after Ford shows up. On one hand, Stan you let the children in your care get cursed?? On the other hand, this man thinks crossbows are age-appropriate for 12 year olds so maybe that wouldn't occur to him and instead their combined child/toy cuteness would help them convince him to give Stan some grace. Who knows lol. At least he could probably solve it!

Thinking about aggressive soft yanderes. (Intended to be platonic but can definitely be read as romantic.) They won't threaten you or punish you (unless being used as a teddy bear counts but they'd do that anyways), and they don't take much pleasure in hurting you. But they will use force on you. It's as if they think of you as a ragdoll, but also a treasure that they must cherish whenever given the chance.

Imagine the first time you saw their true self. You had seen something you weren't supposed to, and now they were just smiling gently at you. You tried backing away, but they just stepped closer and closer. Your mind was filled with all sorts of horrible scenarios. Would they kill you? Torture you? Something worse? When they grabbed you by the shoulders, you almost screamed. But angering them seemed dangerous, so you kept as quiet as you could. They held you still like that for a while, observing you with a smile that felt out of place. When they suddenly moved, you closed your eyes, waiting for some kind of pain. But instead, you were being held tightly against their chest.

"Shhh... That's it..." They took a deep, shuddering breath that turned into a light laugh. "It's okay, sweetie... Hehe... This feels so nice..."

They placed a kiss on the top of your head. You could hear their racing heart as they kept you pinned to them. You stayed alert, waiting for their next move. They just chuckled and shook their head, though, before basically shoving you to the ground. They held a hand behind your head so you wouldn't bump it, then knelt over you with a smile.

"I told you, silly. Everything's okay. You have nothing to be afraid of. I don't want you to be nervous. Although it's really fucking cute...!" They let out an unhinged laugh as they entwined your fingers with theirs. "God, I could just admire you for hours... Sorry for being a little rough, cutie. Seeing you so confused was just a bit too much for me. I want to savor your adorable expression more~"

Overtime, you learned they have serious cuteness aggression. Except, it was mainly for you, and they found everything you did cute. You could be yawning or even just staring off into space, and they'd suddenly grab your face and squish your cheeks. You started getting accustomed to being squeezed by them at random. As long as you just let them get their hug in, they'd let you go back to whatever you were doing eventually.

I think this would change a bit depending on their personality. On one hand, they wouldn't shut up while hugging you, talking about how cute you are, how precious you are, how much they love you. On the other hand, they could do everything I mentioned before, just with zero explanation. You've probably been frightened a few times when they suddenly stop what they're doing to yank you into their arms or topple you over. Don't let their silence fool you, they love doing it even if they don't say anything.
