Follow Your Passion: A Seamless Tumblr Journey
Literally been obsessed with @babyblankyerror Dr Pinington au for the past while. Anyways, I had too many thoughts about it to just send an ask to them, so I'm making a post instead.
I really want to do fanart for it at some point, but I just know it won't go well. I've failed at drawing Ford enough times to know I'll fail at drawing Stan. I have an idea, though, for a sketch I could do.
Anyways, I was just thinking about how if Stan and Ford's high school was able to do a dissection in science. Would Stan keep cool while doing it in school and be super excited inside? Or was dissecting and surgery something he only got excited about post lobotomy (since that seems to be canon for the au now). I just remember when I did a dissection in school, I was stimming the whole time. I still get a giddy feeling about dissection, and I don't even like blood. I just feel like the giddy feeling I get is also how Stan feels in the au.
Additionally, I was just imagining little Stan looking at pictures of human anatomy. Instead of drawing the comics he did in canon, all of his drawings have something to do with organs. I can't stop picturing him trying to get the organs looking as realistic as he can make them at his small age, being surrounded by little childish doodles.
Finally, when/if Ford tells Stan about Bill, dissecting Bill becomes like a fantasy for Stan. One because of everything Bill did to Ford, obviously, so it's semi-revenge. Two, and arguably more importantly, because he's a living two-dimensional triangle. Stan would love to cut him open and see how he works inside, especially his eye.
