Sorry for spamming you earlier. I just rediscovered your blog and went a bit crazy. I love your art!! Your pregnant Stan drawings literally make me go feral. Ford is so emotionally constipated and is heating himself up for fumbling the goddess that is Stan. Bro wants the cookie so effing bad but he keeps screwing up š
-šø
Hello Anon! I apologize for my late reply, currently on exams weeks here so I might neglect this blog for a bit :''') but please don't apologise!! I love seeing you guys sharing your ideas and commenting in the reblogs and my inbox, I'm happy that people like my drawings :D!!
Also thank you so much!! Pregnant Stan is a guilty pleasure of mine and I'm always happy to deliver, gotta feed this family somehow. Hope you don't mind but I'm gonna yap here for a bit, these losers absolutely missed eachother. They want to get close and trust eachother like old times, the thing is that they're so stubborn when it comes to their past and also their individual problems that it just- explodes or gets extremely awkward. It's been ten years, they changed in those years - there's also that. And I love how you said Stan is a goddess bc he absolutely is, but don't worry they'll get their happy ending (after the 50+ angst drawings I make of them, but trust)!!
Plus I have another one on the work currently, just waiting for me to be free so I can actually finish it and share it with you guys :D
*ripping sounds as I come out of my cocoon* hello guys!! I finally reappeared!! I'm working like a machine ā a extremely slow machine on some ficlets and some comics of old man yaoi which will take some time to finish :'''''') but for now take this rambling of domestic stancest and housewife Stan!!
Also this is literally just me ranting about food (I fucking love food and characters who show their love through food fuck yeah). Also teen Stan would definitely give Old Ford a run for his money, this man is getting taken care of whether he wants or not
Stan, newly wed (which is something heās still getting his head around), starts picking up the slack of the shack (yes the situation was that bad) until he manages to find a job or something to help around. Until then this man is cleaning that house and managing their finances like a drill sergeant. I know damn well he would have an aneurysm at the bare age of 17 if heād seen Ford eating those nutritional pills, heād be pulling out the familyās recipe book and stealing other recipes from the other shops of the town.
This man only goes insane at what heās doing when heās in the market, mentally (and successfully) counting how much heās going to spend, which one of the fruits or vegetables is just a bit greenish but not enough to wait an eternity to mature or rot in just a few days, pickpocketing some candies (and jellybeans in the meantime), hunting those coupons like a hound dog. At the line, tapping his foot while waiting, he hears one of the Northwestās workers make a whispered jab at him, of āhow heās so desperate he bedded with someone thrice his ageā which is the sting at his insecurities and has him pissed.
If Stanford was already pampered at home this man has no idea whatās coming his way (not that heās complaining). Stan is stepping up the game, heās becoming the best housewife this town has ever seen out of complete spite. Like heāll be bested by Preston fucking Northwest and his wife who was literally sold to him and isnāt even the one doing the lunches while heās at work (or whatever rich people do). He just slams a thermo bag at Fordās chest and goes āthis better come home emptyā and walks away without elaborating.
Ford, while in the Institute of Oddology, is curious for whatever his beloved had planned for him. Heās pleasantly surprised at the sight of cream puffs smeared with chocolate, a small plastic cup filled with jelly beans, braciole with sticky rice, a small covered bowl with seafood stewĀ and a coffee bottle tucked nicely to the side. After this, manās hoarding his lunches like a dragon - heāll only share them with Fidds, but other than that those are his, made by his beloved specifically and solely for him.
Manās taking bombe alaska's, pieces of fudge lava cakes, baked pasta, fluffy onion breads, baked pineapple stuffed with shrimps, baked eggplants stuffed with italian sausages, stuffed rice cake with minced duck meat, bandeja paisaās, cheesy bread, thick and creamy onion soup, pancakes filled with milk cream, passionfruit mousse, fried bean ball filled with shrimp and many others. Ford is being fed needless to say.
Fiddleford definitely teases him about it, but god knows how happy he is that his friend is finally taking care of himself for once (even if heās being used as Stanās guinea pig for his cooking). Their students even noticed that he looked more energetic, improvements in his mood and his strong form seemed fuller, healthier even. Stan has this manās mind twisting and turning while in their shared bed for whatever the teen packed for him.
Also Stanās an avid visitor in the Ramirezās household, helping Abuelita with some errands or taking care of Soos (he adores the kiddo). Abuelita was nice enough to give him some advice on cleaning his home more efficiently: using a sheet to dust behind furniture, distribute chores in each day of the week or simply pick one day to do the cleaning, use warm soapy water on most things (keeps a nice smell and doesnāt⦠leave fingerprints??), and other things. He even tried using one of those pills his Ma used to take before cleaning only to never again (Ford was greeted by the sight of the entire house glistening in a worrying way, and him trying to aggressively clean the insides of their armchair).
Idk why but i feel like Stanās one to pretend he doesnāt care for what people say about him (he does, a lot), but when someone he cares about compliments him, he melts. Ford comments about the cologne he likes to wear when he goes out? He definitely uses it more on their dates (alongside some perfumes that suddenly appeared in the bathroom). Sixer brought him some clothes he thought might look good in them? Heās wearing them until itās threadbare.Ā
For some reason i also feel like Ford would be so fucking annoying over his partners. Anytime Stan has the slightest contribution to one of his researches or adventures heās going āoh, yes, MY WIFE and i have discovered thisā or āmy WIFE found out about thisā . Every single one of his students has heard about their professorās mysterious partner at least once - some that once caught the things his āwifeā cooked never felt so jealous in their entire lives.
And Fordās definitely spoiling Stan back for all the things heās doing (and because Stan drags him out of the house too). Going out on dinners, haunting the local fauna, watching over the town on the Floating Cliffs, travelling to other places, and of course, passionate nights. And if Ford notices that Stanās stomach is a tad taut and swollen after some months, well, thatās just for him to know~

Stan finds out he's pregnant at 15 years old. It's simultaneously the best and worst thing to happen to him.
The epilogue is posted! The main fic is officially done! :D thank you all so much for accompanying this pieceĀ
I have so much to ask so I'm going to continue down here:
1. I seethe in rage with Filbrick's disappointing jeers and abuses towards Stan, at that moment I was worried about his injuries and the broken glass on his foot was a worried surprise! But don't worry, Ford is here to save the day (according to plan, we all know! š)
2. And the moments in Gravity Falls warmed my heart; from him getting engaged with the beautiful ring (Amethyst and pearls!!? š¤©) to befriending ALL of Gravity Falls at his new job at the convenience store (except Northwest, but who cares)! Do I sense that Stan would inherit the Duskertons's store when they pass on? Cause it felt like he did.
3. Don't make me start on his gaggle of duckling kids, baby Soos, Wendy, Tambry and Robbie! Ahhhh, so cute!!! His mama instincts kick in fast with papa Ford by his side and all š
4. But then the birthing scene is a whole lot to take in, so much that I had to reread that part again and again...I was literally scared! His hallucinations of Bill Cipher, the Axolotl (maybe?) holding baby Darlan...and the description of beast Ford with hints of Mama's six eyes...the mathematical equations haunting his blurry sight, I am super convinced that those three had been watching the birth to determine that universe!
5. And baby Darlan...their darling star...the perfect baby with his tuft of hair and six perfect fingers on both hands...I melted like eclair...
Thank you, once again, for this perfect story...you have stolen my heart and returned it to me full and thrice richer with love...Thank you my friend...
Aksolsls I hear you loud and clear!! And I bring answers!!
1. I tried to make Filbrick scenes be related to when Stan was kicked out of the house (also based his dialogue from some of his VA lines!!) and to show that he really was abusive (tending the thing of "when you get kids like yourself you'll understand why I was so harsh" and even the impacts that can be seen on the rest of the family. There might be a possibility that he loved them and even had "good moments", but he still hurt them, badly.
2. AAA I'm so glad you enjoyed it! If Stan didn't make the Mystery Shack, he had to at least have something and a reason to speak with the people of the town. And also Pa and Ma Duskertons my beloveds, them being parental figures to Stan because... His father and he can't talk with his mama for now was really fun to write :) and to also show his closeness to the people even in this AU when they came to visit him
3. Sidoldldod I know Darlan is the oldest of the kids but I had to write them!! Needed Stan to be seen as a maternal/parental figure and he deserves to have his kiddos around him :DD and Darlan being the "little older brother" of the bunch after they met him!!
4. Truly so glad you enjoyed because it was my favourite part to write :) (FUN FACT: I was actually going to make Stan hallucinate Filbrick as the doctors that were taking Darlan away, making his panic even worse than the one seen in the fic, but my boy was suffering too much already so I discarded it (ā Ā ā ā̄̄̄̄̄Ģā ā¢ā ā̄̄̄̄̄Ģā ) ). From what I read, they used to give pregnant woman giving birth in the 60s an analgesic/ opioid called Pethidene, which if given too much/because of the stress, some people ended up hallucinating and having delirious thoughts.
Also I'm so glad you caught onto the references! They're spot on! Also the thought of them seeing this universe IS GENIUS, why didn't I think of that/ref pos. I was actually trying to make a reference to the change of the CANON and a reference to the portal, showing just how many things changed in the way they were supposed to act/play out.
5. *Takes a drag of my cigarette, staring at the distance* sigh, Darlan. Little baby Darlan. Stan feeling so many thoughts about his pregnancy, wanting it but being so scared of being anything like his father. Coming to terms with the little life inside of him and the challenges, to finally hold him is his arms. Their little star and bundle of joy, the moment they get home they're drowning him in kisses bc that's their baby and he's so cute!!!
I'm internally jumping with joy that you enjoyed each moment of this fic :) you have been a great contribution to this project with your passion and ideas I truly cannot thank you enough my friend š©µš©µ

It's done! The third chapter will be an epilogue which will be posted later! Thank you all so much for accompanying the process and giving it your attention :)
For @mirrorworldangel and @muchmallows who were the main inspiration for this, you're both amazing :)
Not only did I make more Mama!Stan... I also bought Aster's!Stan into the mix!! Best of both things.
But on a serious note, imagine the intensity of these two meeting, the moment. Holy shit, imagine seeing yourself, the things that you could've been or could've become depending on your choices. The fact that these two are actually really similar too, the basically had the same fate if you stop to think about it, the only difference is how they both dealt with their Ford's and the fact that one of them had... Aster.
Imagine looking at this younger version of you, despite everything he suffered, he found his happy ending. He's completely at peace and he has his son with him, something that you've longed in some nights but couldn't handle the thought of making them go through the things you've suffered. He's what you could've been in a very distant future, it's you but it's not you. Imagine feeling the things you tried so hard to ignore and feeling you thought were gone overdue just slam into you like this. The small bit of envy but also empathy towards this version of you.
Imagine seeing this version of you, taller and proud, he looks like you in the past, but he looks comfortable in his skin, proud of himself than when you were in that time. Despite his hidden exhaustion, he has found peace too in his own way. The tattoo in his chest, the same one as your son, you wonder what he goes through for a moment, if he's happy. In a moment, you wish you've could've been him, then your son wouldn't exist and he wouldn't have to suffer because of you - and you recoil at that thought.
Imagine their talks, the complete empathy towards the other, so alike but so different. Mama!Stan almost willing himself to ask about this Stan's child, his interests, his dimension. Aster's!Stan seeing more than what meets the eye, his job and if he's still good at cards. Both of them finding some twisted peace at their fates, accepting tha things didn't worked out the way they've should, but now they can make their own stories and choices. Both of them telling the other it's not their fault, wanting to believe the other but not bringing themselves to fully trusting that. But... it's okay, they have eternity for that.
I feel like they wouldn't exactly friends, but they're not foes; they're equals, they respect and understand each other, that's all they need.
AAAAAA so sorry for my ramblings Angel!! I just really wanted to see these two interact and wonder about their characters!! Also I made this piece base on that one scene from Uptown Girls because I really thought it fit them. Happy Chinese new year my friend! Take care and have fun! š©µš©µ
Saw @mirrorworldangel answer about Aster's happy ending and I got inspired. I hope you like this gift and HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!
Also I completely apologize if Aster's colour pallette is wrong (ā Ā“ā ;ā ļøµā ;ā `ā ) (for some reason I wanted to see him in blue???) I drew him older than he's supposed to be (and also looking like an exact copy like Ford, this dude was made to suffer) to show how long he's been travelling and also the hardships he endured (hence the duller colours). And while drawing this I had- so many thoughts (and I listened to Adrienne Lenker doing this and it was not a good idea it was not a good idea-)
The axolotl allowing Stan to rest by letting him "relive" in the moment where he was most happiest. The problem is that, both Aster and Stan have both "forgotten" eachother (Aster by seeing so many Stans and slowly forgetting his mother's characteristics after Stan died; Stan because of the amnesia). So when they both see eachother they're more like "you look familiar" and "doubting the axolotl for a moment" until they both recognise eachother (Aster finally being called by his first name by his own Stan, by his own mother. Both finally reunited). Ngl I got inspired by Moomin Mama and Forneus (cotl) for Stan's dialogue.
And Aster finally being allowed to rest and to be with his mother (I was actually gonna draw a panel of him being reverted back to a kid, a gift from the Axolotl so he and his mother could have more moments!) Him introducing Cleo and Mama (whom I DEFINITELY want to see and have to explore more) to his mother and Shanklin, Stan being held back from almost marching down to the Black Forest to beat the shit out of Cipher and Ford, Darlan dealing with the fact that he doesn't have to be on "fight or flight" mode anymore, Stan absolutely showering his behemoth of a son with kisses and hugs and getting to know more of him and his friends. Just - them ಄ā āæā ಄
I tried to show more of Aster's quiet but still emotional side (but only when he allows himself to be), so he's really feeling it when he finally recognises his mom. The guy is a highly trained assassin.
Which also leds me to this point: some of the Stan's that interacted with Aster saw him as quiet, completely different, but still their baby (even with the scars and so so tired look that seems to be engraved in his face, which just made them more worried for their own kids bc what happened??).
And then there's the Ford's.
You know that Mandela catalogue audio?? "If you see someone that looks identical to you, run away and hide??" It's literally their relationship. Imagine you're a (shitty) Ford, and when you look to the corner of your lab, there's this... Figure. Just standing there, looking back at you. It's you, but... It's not you. It's older, covered in scars, bigger and wider than you. And it's staring back at you without a single ounce of emotion. The only thing that you can assimilate closer to it is pure apathy. You don't know who or what it is, but you can feel that it doesn't like you, and it wants you dead.
It's literally them:
ASJSIDJ I'M SO SORRY FOR THE RAMBLING I JUST REALLY LIKE HIS LORE AND I'M SO EXCITED FOR ANYTHING THAT YOU MAKE (ā äŗŗā *ā Ā“ā āā ļ½ā )ā ļ½”ā *ļ¾+
ALSO
These bastards are still kicking my ass, BUT I'LL MAKE IT (I say, almost ripping my hair off when the other codes decipher just led to gibberish) į¦ā (ā òā _ā óā Ėā )ā į¤
But on a serious note, I truly appreciate your attention my friend :) it's truly a pleasure seeing you and hearing your ideas, I excitedly await anything that you're putting your work on, take your time on It š©µš©µ

^ from this post
Here you go @incorporatedmii!! Have I already told you that I love your AU???
Had an extremely random thought about Filbrick Pines that escalated way too quickly and i wanted to share. Also this is extremely scrambled writing so i apologize if i sound confusing
TW: canonical and implied child abuse
Ever since his first appearance in Dreamscapers, itās clear that even after everything he endured from the man, Stan extremely respects him (even when he sounds uncomfortable when Ford compares him to their father at the āyou look like dadā). Considering they were children in 1950, gender roles dictated that the men were āthe owners of the houseā, āthe breadwinnersā aka the main order and assertiveness of the house. Seeing that Ford was more āfavouredā over his intelligence, no wonder Stan constantly tried to reach his fatherās approval (Stan seems to have a very close bond with his mother, but that was what women were āexpected" to do with their children, and both of them clearly suffered from the want of trying to fit in societyās standards in the year - especially with their fatherās and peers pressure).
x
If we only watch the show we only get some snippets of their parents and how they act, but we still think that the decision of him disowning Stan and kicking him out was excessive (especially considering he was just 17 and didnāt even finish highschool). But if we read Lost Legends and āthisisnotawebsite.comā we get a broader vision of their childhood and-
x x
Look at this shit.
He always seemed to have a dislike towards Stan ever since he was born, calling him āExtra-Stanā, āscrewupā, āriding in his brotherās coattailā and making him take the blame without even hearing out first (which in this case, is true, but still). Considering it was only in 1958 that ultrasounds managed to visualize better the pregnancy and the thought of āone more mouth to feedā (which is actually ironic, considering that in the 50s, middle class families could - surprisingly - afford a lot of things and that was when the inflation was minimal and workers wages were rising). But if we look at it at a religious point, twins can be seen as a form of good or bad luck; or in some cases, embody the dualistic nature between good and evil.
Which when you compare it to the main teachings of Judaism (from what i researched, please tell me if it's wrong and I'll immediately edit/delete this part) is that:Ā
āJudaism values children and childhood as perhaps the most pure form of being created in God's imageā and āParents who hit their younger children risk injuring them both physically and emotionally, and injuring a child is forbidden by Jewish law. Doing so also constitutes an offense against common decencyā ā x
āParents teach their children by setting a worthy example of commitment to family, community, and to the sacred tradition of Judaism for them to follow in their own lives.ā - x
Ofc there mightāve been some elements that might have made him āraise his handā or ābe tougher to his childrenā (which is a really bad excuse from abusive parents). The thing is that, when Stan and Ford give him back his golden watch, when Ford gets an opportunity to go to West Coast Tech, when Stan starts defending himself; he genuinely looks fond of them, impressed and even slightly āhappyā for them in his own way. Which just makes this situation even worse. Itās common in dysfunctional homes for a parent to verbally/physically hurt their children then claim to love them; either as a form of gaslighting, control or the fact that they genuinely think that theyāre helping you (it isn't. It really isnāt. Cut these people off immediately when you can). The worst thing is that you can have āgood momentsā with your abuser, which might make you think that it isnāt āthat seriousā. Especially in the age of the 1900s and in-between, the amount of legal issues and cases that were easily dismissed because of the conservative upbringing only helped these types of behaviour and abuse to not be taken as seriously as it should - especially when it came from the so-called ācommunity manā.
However, that brings up the question of his past. Considering he was in his forties in 1960s (according to the wiki) he was probably born between 1920s and 1930s (and holy shit the cases of child neglect because it wasnāt seen as a āreal concernā, and when they started making law for this they were usually ignored or not able to reach them. And the rise of feminism too!). He wouldāve been born right after WW1, it would explain why heās so obsessed with money (postwar America suffered from the loss of money and resources) and why he acts the way he does (generational trauma or the āchildren copy their parentsā thing).
AND THAT FINALLY BRINGS ME TO THE MAIN QUESTION OF WHAT SPIRALLED ALL OF THIS.Ā
Did Filbrick treat Stan that way because he reminds him of himself??
Think about it. Unfortunately, I didn't find the study that said it, but some parents tend to favour other children or the ābetter twinā in this case, because their/the other child reminds them too much of themselves and their worst parts. Some relatives even want you to repeat their actions just so you can suffer the same life as them - steaming from jealousy and envy at your āfreedomā. Imagine little Stanley, with chubby freckled cheeks, reaching his fatherās midtigh, who is so curious and adventurous about the world, who loved drawing and reading comics, showing off his tooth gap when he smiled. Imagine that as Filbrick - before whatever happened to him, or the way he was raised, or heās just the fucking bastard that he is.
Imagine him being a twin, too. Holy shit, either as a younger or older brother. Either being compared to his older brother who was the same as Ford, or getting distant from his sibling because of their different treatment, or his parents doing what he did to Stan to their siblings and thinking that this was ānormalā. It brings so many questions to his character. With this in mind, it would make sense why heās so āāāāhard and toughāāā on Stan (not that Ford escaped the abuse, maybe not physical, but definitely the pressure of trying to keep their father calm or doing well for the family; and perhaps the slightest hint of being responsible for his brother at a young age as he was the most āmatureā out of them). It brings such another layer to their relationship.
And for my fellow Stancest enjoyers (i did not forget any of you!), i feel like him having a twin would make the situation so, so much worse. Him seeing his sons being as close as he was to his siblings on their childhood, him trying to slowly separate them, constantly dismissive of Stan because of how similar they are, only listening to Ford when it was worth it or necessary because he also reminds him of his other half, hating any kind of affection between them because ātheyāre menā and āwhat would people thinkā (the same words someone once said to him), how they need to be more independent, reminiscing and resenting every single moment he spent with his twin or outright blocking him from his family and/or memory, imagine if his twin was kicked out of their house because of their relationship? Or what if it was him that got disowned from their family? Him taking all the brunt of their familyās abuse and how āitās for your own goodā. The amount of scenarios this could cause and bring, if anything, he wouldāve been so much harsher to them. Not only would they suffer their fatherās wrath, they would suffer social prejudice and be a permanent stain to their family. (I apologize for the few scenarios, or else this would get too long.)
The more i think about this man the more I disliked him, if he had or not a bad childhood, he is an adult. Yes, you can sympathize with his (extremely hypothetical past that i created) childhood - especially with the time he was born, it was shit dude - but your actions after are yours and yours alone. It doesnāt excuse how you act in the present. You donāt get to be an asshole or let your past define you (of course, healing isnāt an easy path and not everyone is able to do therapy, but i think youāll get what iām trying to say here). Much less with your own children, you might have been a child once, but so were they; and theyāll live with the same pain you suffered and that you now inflicted on them. THAT is your fault and your responsibility alone.
And thatās what makes Stan and Ford growth on the series so satisfying to watch, the both of them clearly care for the kids and for each other, and now that theyāre on the StanāoāWar thereās going to be so much learning from each other, getting close again, thereās going to be healing. They chose to do good by the people around them, and thatās so nice to see them letting go of their insecurities and the internalized hurt caused from their past.
