If I had a nickel for every time a man in his early sixties dedicated his life to researching the strange and unusual and documented all his findings in a leather-bound journal which he later decided to hide away before promptly disappearing without a trace, only to make a grand return many years later after some brown haired 12 year old who also happens to be his nephew finds the journal again by pure accident and the two of them (including various other family members) fight off a dangerous and terrifying monster who wants to steal the journal for the valuable information it holds, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Hi,,,,, so, this is what I've been working on- I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO SAY, IT'S NOT THAT LONG FOR THE TIME IT TOOK ME TO MAKE IT!

but to be honest this isn't the finished version. Just wanted to show a little bit of the process (in case it ends up being just a wipjeje) i'm a slow worker jiji.

I don't plan to do a full “animation” I want it to look like an animatic, but polished(? if that makes sense.

NEW COUCH MOMENT!!! featuring the blorbos

‘Y’KNOW, LIKE NYA~’

‘Will it be considered manslaughter if it’s a triangle’

". . . THAT'S NOT WHAT IT'S SUPPOSED TO DO BILL!!!!" "Well Sixer, how was I supposed to know that!!!" I thought of Gravity falls and I need to know why that copy machine is like that

"I've fixed that malfunctioning copying machine." "The copying machine was broken?" "Of course it was, it did not even create identical copies of objects until now, how anyone could call it a copying machine before, I do not understand."

WIP

People drawing art of JK Simmons man regretting gay relations with a triangle was not on my bingo card BUT

Sometimes i look at the world and remember why most of what i look at on the internet is gravity falls fanfic. Goddamn everything is on fire, but at least we have scientists with npd and evil gay triangles and old men punching the shit out of anything that threatens their families and redemption arc aus and hurt no comfort and mullet stan doodles and fanmade ocs and salamander deities and weird books

Every younger sibling I know feels like they can’t do the older sibling’s “thing”. Older sibling is a soccer player? Can’t do that! Older sibling is a computer geek? Computers are now impossibly confusing. Older sibling likes star wars? Your only two options are star trek or to forgo science fiction altogether. I don’t know why this is the case but my guess is so that the younger sibling’s successes can’t be directly compared to the older one’s, which will probably be better because they’ve done it longer.

Now, I know Stan and Ford are twins and thus the same age. But I think something similar applies here: Stan couldn’t be a nerd because Ford got the title first. So he didn’t even try. Ford would always be smarter, so he embraced his other skills (of physical prowess and later scamming).

In order to rebuild the portal, Stan not only had to process his grief and guilt enough to do things, but also get over the feeling that math was “Ford’s thing” that he was “taking over”. He had to get over the “Ford’s the smart one” rhetoric. Stan gets way too little credit in the fandom for what he managed to pull off to bring Ford back, both mathematically/mentally, and emotionally.

So none of the humans in Gravity Falls noticed when Ford was replaced by his twin, which makes sense, he was a recluse in the woods who probably only infrequently came into town for coffee or groceries. And also a secret mind-wiping cult was on the loose.

But as reclusive as he was around the humans, he got VERY social with the local supernatural entities. He raised a shapeshifter, he kept a gnome in a cage, he yelled at Steve with a megaphone. The local paranormal community was probably very familiar with the excited six-fingered human who traipsed around the woods conducting interviews and taking notes.

So, what did they think when he suddenly vanished, to be replaced by a five-fingered con artist who completely ignored the supernatural entities and began bringing humans around the shack?

I propose this:

None of the supernatural entities realized that he's Ford's twin.

They assume that as part of Ford's studies, he summoned up his own evil doppelgänger, and it killed him and took over his life. As doppelgängers are wont to do.

Which makes Stan a member of the paranormal community in their eyes; but if he'd rather try to blend in among the humans, hey, that's his business. They just won't send him invites to the town's magical meet-ups. He is, after all, an EVIL doppelgänger.

I dont ship billford and theres a lot to say about their dynamic being fucked up and unhealthy and unbalanced but I do think they got homoeroticism objectively

Obsessively studying your recently-resurrected arch-nemesis isn't, like, any kind of mental health red flag, is it? Like that's probably fine right?

rewatched the finale and wanted to draw that one scene yk

ok its gonna happen!

hoping I'll finish it by next week but it might take a little longer

should I turn that scene from journal three where ford goes to the truck stop for coffee and flips out into a comic

cause it sounds fun to draw

idk if i'd color it though

STAN TWINS BONDING IDEAAAA

OK SO. I was watching the movie WALL-E with my little sister a few nights ago, and I thought: What if the Stan twins watched it?

Obviously Mabel probably would make them watch it bc its a romance and she loves those, but it would also be relatively new in the GF timeline (the movie came out in 2008 so it would only be 5-ish years old in 2013)

HOWEVER.

The end of the movie end with EVE and WALL-E finally getting together, but not before EVE has to fix WALL-E. And what happens after that?

WALL-E HAS NO MEMORIES.

So I was thinking that the Stans would get sorta emotional at that part because like. They kinda had to go through the same thing? I mean, OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE NOT A COUPLE (do NOT reblog and tag as a ship or so help me), but the concept is similar.

Jut a silly, angst-filled idea I had. Carry on with your day :)

Stan: “Yes… it’s tImE TO FUCKING GO!!”

Thanks for the amazing @metal-welder for the idea!! :D

Some doodles from my story, also have Stanley wearing stripper boots

Art dump!

My sincerest apologies for my lack of communication over the past few weeks. I haven’t quite gotten the hang of the “queue” system yet and my free time to post is quite limited.

how come ur here spying on ur ex boyfriend... triangle-friend? is bill even a boy? is anyone asking the real questions here????

Not ex, mind you. I’d say Bill technically counts as a current partner.

His gender identity is just one more confusing detail that he takes joy in refusing to explain. Supposedly there were over 14 million possible gender identities in his old dimension; but this is neither proven true nor false, so whether this is trustworthy information is up to you. I personally have given up on trying to fit him into any boxes. He is simply Bill.

Back to the original question at hand. I’m not exactly “spying” on him so much as I am keeping an eye on him to ensure he’s not spreading information I’d rather keep private or antagonizing others for no good reason. I still browse other content on this site, though.

Why would Bill be asking you to call it Bizzaremageddon when he immediately called it Weirdmageddon when it started? ("Welcome one and all to Weirdmageddon!") Does he regret calling it that? Did he not call it that in your universe? Am I overthinking this? Did weirdmageddon have a different start in your universe?? Are the events of weirdmageddon as a whole different??? Am I overthinking this? Probably the last one.

I'm so normal about this.

As per previous posts when prompted (nice alliteration!), neither Weirdmageddon nor Bizzarmageddon have occurred in my dimension. It is in my best interest to ensure they never do. However, as Bill has likely made clear enough, he still intends to invade R34LITY. In that scenario the event will be called Bizzarmageddon.

Are you using tumblr to spy on your ex?? Girl frfr you are out of his league.

📖👓❤️✨

Oh! No worries fellow “Tumblr” user, I use this site to observe the behavior of those within alongside keeping an eye on my “partner” of sorts. No exes are being spied on here. Perhaps there’s another Stanford you mean to accuse?

— Stanford F. Pines

What’s worse, Wierdmageddon or High School?

High School. At least during Weirdmageddon I could ensure the safety of my Earth while staying on the side of safety myself. In High School I’d just end up the target of more antagonistic behavior.

oh wait im in your dni arent i

Eh, I wouldn’t worry too hard about it. That was mostly a joke. I myself am rather involved with the yellow bastard, after all.

based on the last ask... what exactly is your relationship with 64'\ bill?

I have debated what exactly to answer this with for roughly 2 hours now, and have simply accepted that there is no true way to explain our relationship.

It’s a very confusing experience. A “situationship” may be a good word for it? I’m genuinely unsure.

— Stanford F. Pines

I just got flash banged by stancest (Do not look it up) and spent way to long trying to figure out how to filter tags, so finding this blog is a genuine relief

I don’t even need to look it up to know how awful that must be. I’m glad that you’ve found what you’re looking for.

— Stanford F. Pines

How you tagged that with the x on that last post is actually how you indicate a romantic pairing. Rip.

Oh. Well, I suppose it’s not entirely inaccurate.

— Stanford F. Pines

how come you know 3 versions of the entity bill cipher? did you also wander through the portal like 46'\ stanford pines or 64'\ cipher told you about it?

Apologies for the wait, I have rather limited time to spend online.

I met 64 Bill the same way 46 Me must’ve met his (leaving out the apostrophe backslash for convenience), our main differences being 64 must’ve had bigger dreams than 46. He chose to send me to an interdimensional meeting place rather than The Nightmare Realm which allowed a much more welcome exploration of dimensions than my alternate selves tend to have.

From there I learned of 46 Bill’s mistakes (mine loves to mock him) and of his younger self. So both, I suppose!

— Stanford F. Pines

You deal with Bill on the daily?

...could you ask him how he gets his mascara to look like that

I have asked on multiple occasions and unfortunately he refuses to share his secrets. Claims it’s “NATURAL BEAUTY, BABY!”. I doubt that.
