MENTIONS OF SA, ABUSE, AND DARKSHIPPING UNDER THE CUT. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
-
as a pro and darkshipper myself, it genuinely confuses me how people do not see how billford IS a darkship.
do you people forget that alex has literally stated before that he based bill off of ab-sers, such as the ones who those he knew were victims of? it is literally CANON that bill ab-ses ford and his entire family CONSTANTLY. that is ALL he does, in the show, in tbob, everywhere. there has never been one moment where bill has not been ab-sing and harming ford in one way or another - even if they were getting along in stanford's earlier years, that's still gaslighting, manipulation, power imbalance, monster x human, and a lot more. several times he uses fords body against his own will and FORCEFULLY exposes his naked body to the public, obviously, WITHOUT CONSENT. how in the world would that not be SA??
i think that even though bill is just about the fan-favorite of gravity falls, aswell with billford, trying to go against this CANON TIMELINE is blatant denial.
i am in no way saying you CANT like bill, im profiction myself. but at the least try to understand the character that he ACTUALLY is. billford is certainly not my cup of tea, but I cant stop anyone from shipping two fictional characters, especially as a literal darkshipper. do whatever with whatever character, its all fiction. point is - if you're going to swoon over a character and ship something along with 90% of the fandom, go ahead, do this, but acknowledge the fact that he is NOT JUST a precious misunderstood silly lil triangle dude. he can be those things, duh. but that's for sure not ALL he is. billford still IS a darkship, and it IS, and has always been ab-sive.
