The Most Important Thing When I Write Dipper And Mabel Is To Understand That They Are Not Stan And Ford.

light mabel analysis just from the first episode of gravity falls

when dipper has just read "trust no one" she jumps out and spooks him to ask what he's looking at and when he hesitates there's a tone of surprised amusement in her voice when she asks "what you're actually not gonna show me?" which shows that they are really close and that he's likely never done that before

when she's hanging out with norman she says "daisies? you scoundrel!" and in flower language daisies represent innocence, purity, and cheerfulness. they are also commonly thrown at weddings

when she's in the woods with norman she's obviously disappointed that he's actually a bunch of gnomes but you can also tell she's deeply uncomfortable, for one because dipper was right and she feels she should have listened to him, and for two she was being taken advantage of! she's a 12 year old girl who got tricked by a bunch of men to marry them!!! and she feels like it's her fault for not listening to dipper (it's not her fault, sure she could have been more careful but that's exactly why they picked her )

when one of the gnomes latches onto dippers face she yells "i'll save you!" and punches the fuck out of the gnome. and when they are confronted at the shack she asks him "trust me dipper, just this once trust me" and uses the leafblower that she had earlier injured herself with by practice kissing to take out the gnomes, who she yells at for lying to her and for messing with her brother.

all of this just in the first episode alone shows who mabel is as a person, which is a funloving girl who cares about her brother immensely and also knows when to fuck shit up!!!!!!!! like damn!!! she's so cool!!!! and also a good precursor to irrational treasure, because had mabel not been silly she wouldn't have known to use the leafblower, as well as starting off they're mystery adventures by being what brought their first supernatural encounter on

Trying to figure out how I want to draw Gravity Falls characters

"If you use em dash in your works, it makes them look AI generated. No real human uses em dash."

Imaging thinking actual human writers are Not Real because they use... professional writing in their works.

Imagine thinking millions of people who have been using em dash way before AI becomes a thing are all robots.

@sillygooberatlas That's worrisome tbh.

Wait, are you Ford or Bill in this scenario? (Or Stan or the kids, I suppose)

I think the Billford ship makes Bill's perspective in Gravity falls really funny. Your boyfriend banishes you, you come back twenty years later to some weird little boy immediately demanding you go after Standford Pines aka your ex but it's not him it's his loser brother and then you get your ass beat by his loser great-niece and nephew and then it happens again and then your ex finally comes back and you finally achieve godhood and you and him can finally have psychosexual mindgames together, and you finally get the ultimate privilage of being able to enter his mind again so you can become omnipotent and then it's his fucking loser brother again and then he fucking kills you.

My sister can never know.

#if it WAS created by the train that means there might be an orb for reflections like there are for other denizens#and what happens if that orb gets bumped out of place?#and if it DOES exist independently from Train then that means lake was only classified as a denizen because they weren't a passenger#and it might have always existed outside of the train BECAUSE the train created it and retconned reality to make it always exist#no matter how you slice it the whole mirror world is both fascinating to think about and so incredibly messed up and thats why I love it#infinity train#infinity train mirror world

Gotta love this very messed up show

the question of if the mirror world really reflected the regular world or if it was a creation of the train is so fucked. i know lake ultimately decides it doesn't matter if their memories are false, because their life is in their own hands now. still, i was trying to decide which option is More fucked bc i knew that would be the one Owen Dennis etc would choose. but honestly they're both so dystopian and horrible i just don't know. like, option 1: oh great, everyone's existence is tied to puppeting an unwilling person who can't be saved in a world we can't reach. option 2: oh great, if you pass through the train's chrome car, you immediately create an autonomous person who remembers being puppeted their entire lives and are now still being heavily policed to support you even though they have great cause to despise you. yikes!

As a note... it showed up in the Billford tags anyway. Oops. ^^;

Oh my goodness

I don't know what to do

I don’t know how I feel about this . . . On one hand, it’s not exactly inaccurate. It technically was about billford. On the other, I don’t want anyone thinking I actually ship them

If I ever say I ship Bill with ANY member of the Pines family, it’s an imposter. Shoot them. Preferably with fire. Lots of fire.

Last night, I had a dream where there was a fanfic where all the main characters of Infinity Train only had platonic relationships between them and I was so happy because I'm not particularly invested in any of the common Infinity Train ships. They all held hands and danced in a circle?? I think they were in a band together?? Maybe?? Ryan had his guitar, anyway. He and Min-Gi were roommates and Ryan actually shouted "WE'RE NOT DATING! WE'RE ROOMMATES!" And not like in a "we're in denial" way but in a "we legitimately are platonic friends" way. Now that I think about it, the dream was really weird.
