It Took Me A Long Time, But I'm Glad I Finished It. I Thought It Was Funny To Draw Such An Important

fordsie gives the best hugs

Sometimes strange ideas come up😅 But I like it. If you cross Bill and Axolotl, you get something cute

I decided to draw something with colored pencils on a piece of paper. Present you to Alastor.

The amount of "joking" hostility people display in the tags for their gravity falls posts is impressive.

You're scrolling through and you catch the OP policing interpretations (usually) billford, as if people where mis-tagging left and right. Even on posts with very little engagement.

The only reason I ever had to do that, was people mis-tagging my art as fiddauthor, even when I wrote in big bold red letters that wasn't my intention.

Fiddauthor is so popular people treat it like the default, but billford? I dunno people are pretty shit to anyone who likes Bill let alone ships him with anyone. I doubt there are many people going around assuming stuff is billford especially given the casual hostility.

It seems a little overkill?

Don't worry, with the amount of rudness, joking or otherwise, I wasn't about to dare commit the crime of interpreting x as y, even as a joke heavens forbid.

Sod off. Its unnecessary and makes others feel unwelcom or wrong.

I understand not liking something but this behaviour feels like it justifies being an asshole on the basis of a difference of opinions.

Point is shipping anything other than fiddauthor in this fandom fuxking sucks. You have people assuming your stuff is fiddauthor unless specified otherwise, and then you have people telling others (With much more hostility) that you shouldn't interpret this as billford. On a post with less than a 200 notes where no one was even doing that in the first place.

These are popular artists who's stuff I see everywhere.

They're not doing anything wrong by specifying dislike or discomfort. But their collective attitude about it, coupled with their popularity, creates an impression of superiority and high-horsedness.

As well as this wierd "correct vs false" idea even though its more "popular vs unpopular"

He is yipee

Saying Ford's worst character trait is ego is like saying Stan's worst character trait is greed.

I swear if people talked about stan the way they do about ford. He would be so hated.

Ford's worst character trait is not having enough screen time.

Screen time stan got, in spades by comparison, to make you feel bad for him or have over the top hero moments to balance out the overall crappy-ness.

I guesse ford just wasn't as funny about it.

I don't dislike stan, I dislike this fucking golden boy treatment he gets.

It's like saying dipper is the only one who's obviously neurodivergent.

Or that fidd is only either sunshine or evil genuis.

It's fucking nauseatingly surface level.

And in the case of ford even the shows creator is like "oh yeah he's just an arrogant prick" agh it's awful

...it also has undercurrents of ablism...

Like... dipper and stan are the "straight men" to their "eccentric twins".

Like "ohhh poor dipper and stan they're so underappreciated.. with all their hero moments, having the majority of the main emotional beats focus on them...ect"

drawn according to mood

Here are a couple more sketches with this charming wizard. There is even a small sketch of his grumpy raven.
