My Problem Is That I Don't Know What To Post About The Washed Away Au. I Mean, I Want To Talk About It

How does Penni draw under water? Does she have underwater crayons? Does she eat such crayons?

also, will the Pines ever meet the Fish Family? Would they get along? I’m just imagining Stan making awkward small talk with his brother in law.

also also, will Ford ever escape the Shape of Water jokes?

1. Penni draws underwater because to the fish people species, water doesn’t really get in the way of anything. Water to them is what air is to us, or it's at least similar.

2. As I said above, yes, basically. Don't ask me how they're made. Probably something to do with coral.

3. She doesn't seem to me like the type of kid to eat strange things. She has, however, broken them up into tiny pieces. She likes to destroy things.

4. I think I put this in the comments on one of my previous posts but I can't remember which one. Basically, I can't imagine a way for the Pines to meet the Fish family. I've came up with a small idea of how to get Penni to meet them but I need to figure out the details on that one. (Spoiler alert: it involves a certain type of deal.)

5. If they did all meet though, I think they'd get along. Nimirylov is fluent in English and Penni knows some English because of Ford so communication isn't a big issue. I think the class difference would cause a small divide between them though.

Stan making awkward small talk with Nimirylov would definitely happen. Right before and/or after Stan tries to steal/scam something clearly valuable off of him. Ford wouldn't like them two interacting, though, because if they became friends, it would be a nightmare. Stan as a person + Nimirylov's charisma and natural skill with people?

6. Finally, no, Ford will never escape any jokes that could relate back to his husband, especially. His daughter is less joked about, but they'd still end up happening, too.

Thank you so much for these questions. For all the reasons I said in my post asking for questions and because it just makes my brain happy. I love rambling about Ford's alien fish family, and I love thinking more deeply into it with things I hadn't thought about before. I'm always thinking up more for this au, though.

Before Ford and Nimirylov started dating:

I am about to make an army of tiny Bill Ciphers. No one can stop me. I will not heed any warnings against it either. Nothing bad can come from making many Bill Ciphers.

Right after Nimirylov and Ford started dating:

Do a DNA test Stan, find out if you have any children.

A new Bill Cipher has just been born... hmmm... Suspicious...

SANS! HI! Okay, so I need to know. Are you more daddy or babygirl? I want to know about your mutuals, too.

that's. that's one Hell of a question, kid. uh. i don't even know. i'd just go with a third option, which is "silly guy".

@the-real-fastestthingalive @therealstanfordpines and uh any other mutuals who are comfortable answering this?

Can I be honest? I hate that any post where it's purely platonic is labeled aroace. It completely removes the ability for friendship to happen. It gives me the same feeling as people who say that "boys and girls can't be friends". Acting as though deep platonic relationships can only be reached by being aroace removes the importance for everyone to have those deep platonic relationships and it actually encourages the narrative that romance is a must.

Enemies to "I accidentally came across you while you were vulnerable and scared and I'm not a total asshole so I tried to help you" to "accidental mutual uncovering of softer sides and vulnerabilities" to "I can't be mean to you anymore, not out of pity but because it would feel weird betraying that brief truce we had" to "Fine I'll make an effort to be nice to you now I guess" to "actually now that we're not actively hating each other you're not so bad I guess" to "i think we're friends but I'm not going to say that because I'm afraid you're not gonna feel the same way" to "oh you also think we're friends? Great" to lovers

how does Stan feel, knowing he tore Ford away from a husband and child? How does Stan feel that his brother got MARRIED?

I'm still trying to figure out when and how Ford exactly tells Stan about everything, but I do know that Stan would feel immensely guilty about it. However, he's not outwardly going to show that. Instead, he'd deflect and say that there was no way he could've known that. Basically, he'd act very dismissive and deflective about it just to hide the guilt he would feel over it. Stan would also feel curious about the family that Ford had made for himself, as well as slightly sad that there was never a chance for him to meet them, but those feelings would be pushed even further down than the guilt.

The last thing Stan had ever expected was for Ford to get married, to anyone. Especially not when he was in the portal. He'd be very shocked over the marriage, but once again, Stan deflects. He'd make a ton of jokes over the fact that Ford was married to a fish alien. Trust that anytime fish is brought up in any capacity, Stan will be making a joke at Ford's expense.

Moral of the story, Stan can (and will) deflect any serious feelings that he has around Ford's alien fish family.

I don't know how to answer this. Is this targeted towards one of my ocs or to my myself?

1. Favourite colour: I can never choose between orange or red. Just that sort of colour pallete, I guess.

2. Last song: To the Bone. Never played undertale or watched anything about it. The song is just too catchy.

3. Currently reading: I'm slowly reading the Iliad, but I've had absolutely no motivation recently. However, the fanfic I'm reading right now is A Heartshaped Box of Springs and Wires.

4. Currently watching: Nothing. The last thing I watched was Gravity Falls, though. I just keep putting on random episodes. I've watched ATOTS too many times now.

5. Craving: Eh, I had some nice prawn crackers before and I'd love to have some more.

6. Coffee or tea: Despite the fact that my friend calls me a coffee addict, I'd choose tea.

Thanks for tagging me by the way! I didn’t expect you to seeing as my tumblr says we're not mutuals anymore. Might just be a weird glitch though.

Anyhow, onto who I'll tag...
