Fiddtober Day Three. This One Was A Lot Of Experimenting But I Really Liked How It Came Out Tbh

ok i love the angst that comes from fiddleford's whole society of the blind eye arc and all but like. i cant help but giggle imagining this little southern twink boy whos heartbroken over his little scientist boyfriend going "it is unseen" with that goofy accent

happy fiddleford friday. here’s young (maybe 12) fiddleford.

also i have a few things to say about this

transmasc transmasc transmasc transma-

”where is the hair floof” i think that his hair wasn’t fluffy for most of his childhood until one day he woke up and just. poof. and it never went back.

he pretty much anyways had his hair up back then so he didn’t get mud in it. it didn’t really help, though.

nerdy little nerd girl

gray streak was pretty much always there.

tooth gap

idk why i numbered these

hes trapped within the walls of my ms paint files

you know i had to draw that evil stan twins au i talked about... also heres the bloody versions so trigger warning for that??

"ooohhh fiddauthor so sad so cute theyre so yaoi" you are all overlooking a very very important detail here. FIDDLEFORD HAD AND WORE FULL ASS COWBOY BOOTS IN COLLEGE.

heres stan wearing a bi pride shirt my dad owns. because why not. the anatomy is jacked up and so is the heart but thats okay i guess.

going to attempt a fiddleford animation.

whether or not it happens. i don’t know. but ill try maybe

thinking of sea grunks again theyre both pathological liars (thanks caryn) so whenever they start talking to other people in the places they go the lying just ricochets between the two of them and by the end theyve both created a completely fabricated story about where they're from, where they're going, who they are, and literally everything. and its never the same story. afterwards they're just like "....what even was that??" and go on like nothing happened.

ok ok i’m gonna make a pinned post since i have over 100 followers which justifies this i think

also fancy graphics aren’t in the budget so. you just get plain old text sorry

my name is spleens and you will refer to me as such. or whatever dumb nicknames you can come up with

they/them please (pretty sure this is in my bio thingy but a reminder doesn’t hurt

currently fixated on gravity falls and ena but mark my words on june 5th deltarune fixation will return and blow up in my face

i don’t really tag stuff unless it’s one of my aus so. sorry about that.

ok now account rules or whatever

note. this isn’t a DNI or anything. those fundamentally don’t work. i really don’t care who interacts, however i don’t want these things brought up on my page. so don’t tag my stuff in reblogs with these things and don’t bring them up unless a post explicitly opens that discussion (i might do those sometimes) and my warning for you is that i am not afraid of confrontation.

any incest ships. apparently they’re not pro ships anymore, i don’t know what the hell they’re called anymore but you get what i mean.

note of caution. if incest stuff specifically ends up on my dashboard then i will block the person. i don’t go out of my way to pick through my followers, but if that happens with someone who follows me, then tough luck idk what to tell you.

ok that’s all.

alright let me take a crack at this

there are a few plot holes that we need to avoid here. and by a few i mean a good amount.

stan’s criminal record. nobody would want to take the identity of someone who still has jail time to serve. so this will have to be an au where a. it takes place before stan turns to crime or b. stan doesn’t commit crime at all. or a secret third option where ford doesn’t even realize how much of a criminal stan is until he’s too far in and has to learn how to run from the cops.

the fingers. nobody in gravity falls ever noticed that ford had 6 fingers, so it was easy for them to just go with a normal guy who had 5. but someone with 5 fingers seeming to randomly grow an extra finger? strange. especially since stan is much more sociable than ford. the guy who’s known for being super talkative and knows everyone in town suddenly locks himself away in his house? also strange.

stanley needs to be out of the picture one way or another. probably not dead?

ford needs a motive. this has two parts two it. a. he needs a reason to leave his old identity behind and b. he needs a reason to take stan’s identity specifically.

so with all of this in mind. i give you this.

stan gets to gravity falls before ford does. thinks “hey this place isn’t on any maps. no cops will find me here!”

settles in. makes a good living off of being a tourist trap.

he uses the bill summoning thing as another attraction. Very Stupid Idea.

bill comes to make a deal with stan. thinks “hey look there’s a guy i can con.”

stan gets approached by bill for a deal. thinks “hey look there’s a guy i can con.”

stan goes missing

ford arrives to gravity falls.

ford does not have grant money. people don’t believe in his weirdness theory because they think he’s just talking about the tourist trap that used to be there for a while.

finds an old abandoned shack.

investigates old abandoned shack.

“hey wait a minute. not only are there scraps of proof for my theory, but these are stan’s belongings!”

ford thinks. nobody takes him seriously. people don’t seem to take stan’s disappearance seriously either.

“hey! what if i took on his identity, reopened the tourist trap, and used this footing for money and such while i look for stan?”

and thus. ford takes stan’s identity, runs the tourist trap and tries to look for his brother.

the excuse for the fingers is that he had a run in with some kind of magical creature. it gifted him with extra dexterity in the form of extra fingers. everyone loves it.

ford learns to run from the cops. something he never thought he would have to do.

You know what? We have Stanley pretending to be Stanford for a long ass time

Now give me an AU where Stanford pretends to be Stanley. I don't know man, like he wasn't anyone you could even pretend to be. Stanley is a nobody. Basically.

So this AU would be where he is someone somewhere and Stanford has to pretend to be him. Why? I don't know, figure it out.
