in which a sphere regrets teaching a square how to write

Notes: Because I’m induniated with Christmas music at work…(Set in Divide verse, but you don’t have to have read that to get the gist of this). Forgive mistakes - mostly written from mobile. Happy Holidays to all my followers, I wish you well and this is my gift to you! :)
“Stanley, this is never going to work.”
“Oh ye of little faith,” Stan says from the other room. Ford can’t see him, but he knows what his brother is up to and it’s ridiculous, “I don’t know why I agreed to this in the first place…”
“Face it, Sixer - your husband is a gamblin’ man. I’m rubbing off on you.”
While Ford feels the pleasant of hum of Stan referring to him as his husband, he still can’t help but let out an exasperated sigh, “Perhaps, but taking this bet? Ludicrous. There’s no way I won’t win,” he sniffs with some self assured arrogance, “I almost feel sorry for you.”
“You just wait,” Stan’s voice holds its own note of pride, “You won’t be able to contain yourself when you see me in this get-up.”
“You are correct. I won’t be able to contain my laughter.”

Nunca lo había pensando para ellos, pero creo que tiene sentido(?) Uno de los creadores dijo que había pensando la canción como desamor
"Enamorado tuyo" (In love with you) by Uruguayan band, Cuarteto de Nos, is such a stancest song, and it could very well be sung to each other when trying to get over their relationship, in denial that they love each other.
"And if you think I'm in love with you, that's an invention, I intuit, don't give credit to murmurs." This part is self-explanatory: they have always been known to have each other's back, and suddenly, it's not the case. Nobody believes they stopped caring for one another.
"Because I rarely call to tell you I love you, and more than once, I've done it to the wrong number" This represents the need that they have to contact one another but won't out of pride; Stanley's call that he hanged up despite desperately needing his brother, as well as Ford saving Stanley's scam number; the final straw between him and Bill when the demon called Stanley to tell him he was going to kill himself and remark he "never loved him." Ford was angry for a reason, Bill lied.
Also, the "and more than once I've done it to the wrong number" is them convincing themselves they love other people instead of their twin. Stanley's failed marriage and Ford's "Muse."
"Rarely is the time I get desperate to have you by my side, and that doesn't mean it has a meaning." This one is entirely on Ford being the worst person ever. At his lowest point, the only person who comes to mind who he can trust is Stanley, and once he is there, he only asks him to get away instead of embracing him. Stanley's clearly not the case. He misses Ford every single day of his life, but he can hide it from others.
"If you think love is what I feel, please, don't make a fuss. Don't tell your people about our issue. " This adds to Ford's paranoia and secretive nature. He wants all the details about his private life to be private.
"Don't dress up. Don't pretend you are never seen. I have envisioned singing you 《see you later.》 Don't dress up. Don't pretend you are never seen; I have a song that says, 《See you, lady》" This is Stanley after bringing Ford back and seeing how his brother just pushes him. He wants to pretend he is stronger than that, and he would part ways at any moment despite not wanting to.
"I rarely see your picture on my cellphone. It is still there because I'm too lazy to press *delete.*" This is the holding onto pictures and objects that remind them of each other. Especially Ford, who has a picture of them as kids in his coat, which was always in his pocket.
"I'm not that obsessed, to clarify, if you think that's why I sing this song." This is just them reiterating their denial.
Overall, I already love this song and find it so fitting, even if we make it not incestuous, it would still remark their relationship.
Also, because the Latin American dub was made in Argentina (which is next to Uruguay and very culturally alike) it's easy for me to envision them singing this song and fitting them so much.
This will be forever immortalized on my college dorm’s workroom wall
In the Stancest discord I promised someone (I don't remember who, this was weeks ago) that I would write a fic about that stupid coffee commercial staring our favorite idiots! So, I did that and it almost killed me, but here it is! Happy holidays!
okay flatland, what the fuck
it was published in 1884 but STILL WHAT THE FUCK
UPD: THIS IS NOT A FULL POST. THIS IS A THREAD OF MY LIVE REACTION TO THE BOOK WHILE I WAS READING IT. I KNOW IT’S A SATIRE, I KNOW IT A COMMENTARY ON THE SOCIETY OF THAT TIME, PLEASE STOP CORRECTING ME, I KNOOOOWWW
Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Gravity Falls Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Ford Pines/Stan Pines Characters: Stan Pines, Ford Pines Additional Tags: fem Stan, sappy y'all this is so sappy, sex but it’s not described in much detail, again we’re focusing hard on the sappy stuff, sea grunkles era, Sibling Incest Summary:
This is their happy ending, and Ford is more than content with that. However, he does miss their old intimacy. Stan does too, but it’s hard to get over the way forty years has changed her.
The tight writing in Gravity Falls just gets crazier and crazier because Alex Hirsch in the director’s commentary of Dipper & Mabel vs. the Future (11:25) says:
“Ford sees Dipper as someone who’s special like himself. That’s Ford’s great flaw, is arrogance. Is he believes that there’s special people, and everyone else. That human attachments are actually weaknesses. And the song and dance that he’s giving Dipper right now, is the song and dance that he gave McGucket, back when they were younger… ‘You and me are different, we’re better than everyone else. We have a path that no one else can understand, and only us can do this.’ It’s a very seductive idea for Dipper… Dipper is a smart kid, but Ford’s projecting. Ford loves Dipper because he sees someone who’ll tell him ‘yes’ to everything. Who’ll never challenge him, who’ll do a really insane dangerous mission.”
I CAN’T BE THE ONLY ONE WHO’S SEEING THE BILL -> FORD -> DIPPER PIPELINE HERE. YOU CAN JUST REPLACE THE NAMES IN THE ABOVE QUOTE. I’M GOING INSANE.
Gravity Falls and the cycle of “Hey, person who feels outcast from your society like me, you’re special, fuck human connection, join me and be something great!”
i drew this at work
Stancest codependency. They're supposed to be one, one cannot live without the other, Ford is the only person who didn't see Stan as a lesser version of him, Stan is the only person who can truly love Ford. Trying to separate them is tearing one soul into two. Do you see my vision?
