more bailey-bill content, and some backstory below the photo (and lore in the tags)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bailey is very shy, sheltered, and minimally speaking. She's neurodivergent, but because she's never seen a doctor outside of her keepers (see tags for context) she never got a specific diagnosis. she never does, but she's heavily autistic coded. She likes to learn a lot but she’s a big Left Brain Gal and focuses heavily in the visual arts. She’s a mind reader and psychic so she gets visions of whats going to happen. This is why she was taken away by scientists as a baby, to research and study her weirdness. 
When she first moved in with the Pines Brothers, things were obviously very tense. 90% of her contact with humans was bad and neglectful, and so she was EXTREMELY terrified of the men. It took her bonding with stans logic and street smarts before she came out of her shell and started to trust anyone around her. it took months before she felt safe leaving the bunker, and it took even longer for her to trust Dipper and Mabel when they finally arrived. Bailey was thrown off by Mabel’s personality because she didn’t understand how she was so accepting and outgoing. She related more mentally with Dipper.
She’s really really smart, and probably has some form of photographic memory. She likes to create art to get the visions out of her head, and as you can expect, she’s seen a lot of trauma predictions that have come true, and other visions that are traumatic. She’s just a teen girl trying to navigate her life in gravity falls!

#minor lore#bailey is a science experiment in gf#her upbringing is fogging#my excuse is that she doesnt remember#because she's an experiment#but after a certain amount of time#she was stolen away from her parents as a baby#and she never knew who they were or found them. and then one day Mr. Stanford Pines comes investigating and finds Ms. Bailey all chained up#angsty angsty lore lore. we love. i gets all HASDJKFHSJFKSDH inside when i think about it so i havent thought up much lore surrounding that#all i know is she ends up back at the bunker chilling out and befriends the pines brothers#basically becomes a stand in daughter#if you scroll through my timeline WAY way back youll find my stans daughters OCs#those are defunct now (RIP A/O They Aged Up With Me. Whichever is more peaceful to you) but its BASICALLY the same story#for those not in the know: the StansTM basically raise bailey and teach her#ford takes 2 years to teach her everything she missed#just the basics though. and so when she got into school she was stressed#like eleven from stranger things basically!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but not at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you get it!#what if i said i havent watched ST past season 1 because i knew i'd get obsessed and production took too long for my hyperfixation to stick#s2 came out and i was like “oh well ill watch it later” and then all the other seasons came out and i just never watched it again#obviously ive seen and heard enough to knows whats happening but their heavily cross overs between the two#lore wise i mean#art#my art#oc#my oc#original character#digital art#digital artist#nonbinary artist#lgbtq artist
