Didn't Petra Say She's A Nervous Crafter In S1ep6?😂

some misc headcanons

pacifica started working at greasy's because her parents made her. she was spending too much time talking to dipper and mabel and her parents were like "if you're going to fraternize with common rabble, you're going to work like one". they don't really care about collecting the paycheck she earns. they just did this to spite her for having friends and to punish her for it (joke's on them because she meets even more friends at the diner while working there)

after paz leaves home a couple months after turning 18, she goes and lives with susan for a while until she gets an apartment with dipper and mabel in town (theyre either going to a local college or getting their degrees online cause they wanna be in gravity falls as soon as humanly possible)

the Career headcanon i have for the twins + paz is that they start a paranormal pest control & problem resolution service. kind of like the ghostbusters, but not always ghosts and not always busting things. sometimes they just need to use diplomacy. either way, i feel like it's the perfect gig for them. it's a service that is needed in gravity falls, it's something the twins are well-experienced in, and it's something they enjoy immensely, too. win win win. dipper and mabel are primarily the ones doing the field work while pacifica is their bookkeeper/receptionist/general office person, putting her business degree to good use, but sometimes she'll join them on a mission when she's up for adventure

writing for MCSM can sometimes be like

"WHY IN THE WORLD AM I THE ONLY PERSON WHO'S WRITTEN/TAGGED A PLATONIC RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THESE 3 PEOPLE??????"

The people were Jesse, Lukas, and Radar.

Turns out I am not the only person who has written and tagged a platonic relationship between them, but I am only the second and the first one was written in February. Mine was written last August.

Guys, we've had like EIGHT YEARS to write about them.

. . . part of me feels like a hypocrite for saying this because I do enjoy reading Dipper/Pacifica and Harper/Ivor, but in Gravity Falls it's a lot easier to find platonic content to go with the romance.

Infinity Train is wild. Like, you can either face your insecurities or start a cult.

when people put "trigger warning" on their content without specifying what the trigger warning is for

My sister can never know.

Started rewatching Infinity Train recently, and something I find interesting about the fandom is that everyone seems to be taking the mirror world at face value? Like, for a setting where literally everything supernatural on the train is directly fabricated by the train, I see a surprisingly high number of fanworks that assume the chrome car just happens to be the intersection point to a total-third-party mirror dimension.

In a lot of ways, I like Lake’s story more if she and the four other reflections popped into being with 13+ years of fabricated memories the split second Tulip set foot in the car. It plays wonderfully into her overall identity crisis and it dovetails nicely with how Mace seems to be acting more as a mouthpiece for the train during episode 8. 

It also would play nicely with the vague frustration Lake has whenever Jesse tries to wheedle information about the Mirror world out of her- the train never intended its worldbuilding to stand up to prolonged scrutiny, It didn’t expect any human to be engaging with the set piece for more than like a minute. 

Someone had to do it!

ok but can we talk about how FUCKED UP it is that mabel made an alternate version of dipper?

not fucked up she did that, (its p fucked up but hear me out) but fucked up she felt like she had to

like she felt like dipper put her down so much she made a different “more supportive” version of him

and not to mention how even though dipper clearly hated him, he never held it against mabel

dont mind me I like making myself sad for stupid reasons

Wendy "I run this place, sucker!" Corduroy

Soos "I make my own economy." Ramirez

Stanley "I'd fire all of you if I could." Pines
