The ship is cute. Your art style makes cuter❤️❤️❤️❤️
SPOILERS I guess.
Huntlow - Watching the Rain
Willow with her hair down... damn. I'm having fun with this ship. They're so sweet together!
What do you think?
Can you imagine how Ford would react if something happened to Stan? Like someone attacks him or an anomaly manages to get a hit in, and Ford he hears Stan let out a pained noise and he whirls around just in time to see his twin going down. Hurt. And Ford he just sees this and immediately it's just an all consuming rage. I'm talking he's seeing red, that's how furious he is. Because how dare they put their hands on Stanley?? How dare they hurt his twin??? Just how dare they, how dare they?!?!? And Stanford just goes apeshit.
Inspired by how some male relatives (aka. my dad) would just randomly drop some traumatic lore from their past like it's nothing and you just have to sit there reeling while they keep on driving.
Some people don't get it, but for me, like a BIG part of why I actually ship Billford in a specifically romantic fashion is because well... It just makes everything SO MUCH worse and more painful, doesn't it?
Like the fact that Bill CARED about Ford (and this part is certainly cannon, the romanticness of it might be up for debate, but Bill CARED, Bill LIKED him), the concept that Bill LOVED and still LOVES Ford even after all those years, the fact that Ford is the one person in trillions of years that Bill is open with, and that he can relate to, the one person in the entire multiverse he wants to keep, the one person he loves...
And yet, Bill still hurts him, he still betrays him, he still haunts and abuses him...
It just makes Bill so much worse
He CAN care, he CAN love
But that won't stop him from doing awful, violent, twisted things, even to the one person in the whole universe that actually MATTERS to him.
And that just makes it so much more horrifying and honest to goodness tragic
being so jealous that su got a trilogy of cool rpg games..... gravity falls rpg is still living in my brain....

do you ever think about the implications of stanley going by "stan"?
like. he and his brother both share that name. "stan."
but Ford- who wanted more individuality- chose to go by a nickname.
Stan could have gone by Lee.
but. why would he want to?
"Lee" would mean separation from Ford. And Stan wanted them to stay together.
"Stan" is the name that binds them together. It's a literal representation of how Stan did not let his brother go at any point after 40 years. How no matter how many fake names he took on, they all started with "St-" because he wanted to keep his brother as close as possible.
i'm ill dont fucking look at me
This is canon. Change my mind.
Huntlow epiphany where theyve been together for a while and willow realises hunter was born and grew from the ground and is made of palistrom wood among other things and she's like "figured i would fall for a fucking plant"
And then she waters, no, SHOWERS him with love. Makes sure her loser boyfriend stays hydrated and sees some sunlight every once in a while : )
He reacts like the boar boy from demon slayer, like he's discovering that people care for him. Flabbergasted and flustered. A confused little man who doesnt know if hes allowed. Cue the vine "is this allowed ??" But its him pointing at himself and willow taking a nap in the sunlight.
I can't stop thinking about how Stan Pines, a man who was kicked out of his home at a young age by his abusive father, turned his own home into such a safe space for not just the twins, but his employees and the kids friends as well.
First of all, we know Wendy frequently slacks off on her shifts, she has her roof top hideaway but she also reads magazines and flat out refuses to do certain tasks. Like when Stan asked her to put up a sign and she just said she couldn't reach it, or telling Stan "absolutely not" when he asked her and Soos to clean the bathrooms. Not only could Stan fire her, he could take away her magazines or stop her from going on the roof. We see that Stan is more observant than he lets on, you're telling me he didn't notice her dragging a cooler and a lawn chair up there? And she's either bringing her own pop and ice to fill that cooler or she's taking his.
And then there's Soos, who Stan cares about so much he got himself on the no-fly list trying to get his birthday removed from calendars, just because it made him upset. We know Soos cares about the Mystery Shack, he feels comfortable there, and he respects and adores Stan. Soos also volunteered to DJ for free at Stans summer party.
We also frequently see Soos and Wendy hanging out with the twins, so either they're slacking off during working hours or they're coming over after their shifts just to hang out. In an after credits scene, we see Mabel and Dipper turn Soos into a disco ball and they're clearly in the residential part of the shack. So either Soos buggered off during working hours to hang out with the twins or he's off shift just chilling. Either way, Stan is fine with him being in the actual house part of the shack.
Wendy also helps Mabel try and make Stan more 'desirable' to Lazy Susan, which I'll get into later, but she's not working and she also in the house part of the shack. We also see Soos and Wendy watching television with Stan, Mabel, and Dipper during the Summerween episode. They aren't on shift! They're just chilling. Wendy hits Stan in the face with a water balloon while working as a lifeguard. She's comfortable teasing him.
Soos tags along with Stan, Dipper, and Mabel when they break into the golf course after hours. He brings his shirts to cut Ws into. He doesn't have to be there, he just is. Wendy goes hunting with Mabel and her friends for unicorns. Mabel wins a pig at the fair and Stan lets her keep it, the pig needs food, who do you think is footing that bill?
Now let's talk about friends. Mabel often has Candy and Grenda over, we know she has loud sleepover with them. Do you think Mabel would bring her friends over if she wasn't comfortable in the house? Do you think Candy and Grenda would keep coming over if they didn't feel safe? Not to mention, they literally ambush Stan in the bathroom and give him a make over. Which he allows, we see him fight off the undead, punch bald eagles, and catch the twins when they fell from the nose of that monument. The man is strong, he could get three preteen girls off him if he wanted to, he was 100% playing along.
Candy and Grenda also invite themselves along on their road trip. And Stan lets them come!! Mr cheap stake agrees to feed and care for two extra kids who aren't his family.
Dipper sneaks around trying to see his tattoo, he feels safe enough with Stan to push those boundaries. He literally pulled the Memory Gun on Ford during the basement scene, if he wasn't comfortable with Stan, he wouldn't try to get that close to him. He calls Stan when he and Mabel are trapped in a haunted convenience store (he doesn't answer but still, he called him).
Now let's talk about Gideon, because I will stand by the Stan had some fondness for the kid. We know Stan has been annoyed with Gideon for a while, we know Gideon has been gunning for Stan for a while. And Stan just... Keeps letting this happen. He never involves the police, he plays along with Gideons attempts, even when Gideon is laughing uncontrollably, Stan just assured him that "you'll get me one day kid". Even when Gideon climbs in THROUGH THE WINDOW all Stan does is aggressively sweep at his feet. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Stan never gets rough with Gideon.
I'm just, I'm weeping over the knowledge that Stan Pines, who wasn't safe in his own home, made his home a safe place for kids as an adult.
