I Don't Know What This Is

CAN I WRITE ONE TOO? And then we'd have multiple feral Stan twins MREHing at each other!

we love the idea of feral ford but even moreso we love the idea that stan mimics him sometimes

like

stan: sorry bud i gotta go through your stuff real quick

ford: *angry cat noise* D:<

stan: don’t ‘mreh’ me

ford: mreh

stan: MrEh

Is it legal to marry a book?

Because I love this book.

Protect them ❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨✨

next summer twins

Oralie: in your opinion, what's the height of stupidity?

Bronte: hey Kenric, how tall are you?

This is the scene that I was working on when my iPad died. I said I’d post it when I finished so you’d all get to see why I was so devastated when I lost it, so here you go! (No sound, I haven’t edited it to the rest of the short yet).

I had just finished inking Petra and Jessie. Luckily I had exported it as a video and saved it to my phone before the crash. So while I did have to re-trace all of the ink lines, at least I had a good reference to do it from.

I started working on this scene a little before Christmas, so it’s been about a month that I’ve been working on it (including the week where I had to scramble to get a new iPad and get caught back up again).

It’s been a rough time. This is probably the most technically challenging shot I’ve done so far. Keeping their proportions right, their feet planted on the ground, and their bodies rotating in 3D space was exceptionally difficult. Im happy with how it turned out but I’m frustrated that it probably would’ve been better had I not had to re-do so much of it due to a hardware malfunction.

There’s probably a lot wrong with it, but I honestly can’t focus on it any longer. I’m so far behind now. I really want to wrap up this short. So I just gotta cut my losses and say this is good enough and move on.

I only have a few more shots left, and hopefully they’re not as technical as this one. So here’s hoping I can finish before the end of next month if all goes well.

🤞

some misc headcanons

pacifica started working at greasy's because her parents made her. she was spending too much time talking to dipper and mabel and her parents were like "if you're going to fraternize with common rabble, you're going to work like one". they don't really care about collecting the paycheck she earns. they just did this to spite her for having friends and to punish her for it (joke's on them because she meets even more friends at the diner while working there)

after paz leaves home a couple months after turning 18, she goes and lives with susan for a while until she gets an apartment with dipper and mabel in town (theyre either going to a local college or getting their degrees online cause they wanna be in gravity falls as soon as humanly possible)

the Career headcanon i have for the twins + paz is that they start a paranormal pest control & problem resolution service. kind of like the ghostbusters, but not always ghosts and not always busting things. sometimes they just need to use diplomacy. either way, i feel like it's the perfect gig for them. it's a service that is needed in gravity falls, it's something the twins are well-experienced in, and it's something they enjoy immensely, too. win win win. dipper and mabel are primarily the ones doing the field work while pacifica is their bookkeeper/receptionist/general office person, putting her business degree to good use, but sometimes she'll join them on a mission when she's up for adventure

This is so funny out of context

You sound really boring

hello people of tumblr, i have brought food for the 5 xara fans out there!

the most important thing when i write dipper and mabel is to understand that they are not stan and ford.

that's not to say that there aren't similarities. obviously, the twins have dynamics that can be compared to each other in a myriad of ways, both separately and together.

but it's so very vital that dipper is NOT a 1:1 ford. and mabel is NOT a 1:1 stan.

dipper has ford's love of rationality and mysteries, but he has stan's love of stories and family. mabel has stan's pure chaos, but ford's pre-bill trust in people.

dipper and stan both approach the world with cynicism. young ford and mabel approach the world with wonder.

stan was the twin worried about being left behind, just like mabel. ford and dipper both wanted to carve a path for themselves and their future.

mabel was so scared of losing her brother that she accidentally caused weirdmaggedon, just like stan was worried about losing ford that he accidentally sabatoged ford's science project/collegiate future. but dipper was the one who fought like hell mostly by himself in the apocalypse for three days to get her back, just like stan worked for thirty years to save ford. there is nothing dipper wouldn't sacrifice for mabel.

in my humble opinion, this is why the pines family dynamic is so damn compelling. they aren't carbon copies because that's not how people work. there is a sincerity, an honesty, a relatability between all of these characters and their flaws.

mabel and dipper aren't just the younger version of their grunkles. they are a crazy mishmash of the best and worst traits swapped around and punted to the moon and back.

exploring each micro-dynamic is so fascinating. i love this weird little family.
